We present here an overview of the idea of applying the software containers model to mobile applications using generative programing techniques. We also present an evaluation prototype called MobCon. A software container is a wrapper component that offers services nearly transparently to other components that ’live’ inside it. The wrapped components contain the functional logic of the applicati...

Cloud containers represent a new, light-weight alternative to virtual machines in cloud computing. A user job may be described by a container graph that specifies the resource profile of each container and container dependence relations. This work is the first in the cloud computing literature that designs efficient market mechanisms for container based cloud jobs. Our design targets simultaneo...

During 2007-2010, we examined which container types in Mérida, México, are most productive for Aedes aegypti (L.) immatures. Surveys for mosquito immatures followed routine surveillance methodology and container type classifications used by Servicios de Salud de Yucatán. Our main findings were that (1) small and larger discarded containers that serve no particular purpose and therefore can be r...

This paper formally proposes a problem about the efficient utilization of the four dimensional space-time. Given a cuboid container, a finite number of rigid cuboid items, and the time length that each item should be continuous baked in the container, the problem asks to arrange the starting time for each item being placed into the container and to arrange the position and orientation for each ...

In the present research, 6.5-month-old infants perseverated in a violation-of-expectation task designed to examine their reasoning about width information in containment events. After watching a familiarization event in which a ball was lowered into a wide container, the infants failed to detect the violation in a test event in which the same ball was lowered into a container only half as wide ...

Linux containers have recently gained more popularity as an operating system level virtualization approach for running multiple isolated OS distros on a control host or deploying large scale microservicebased applications in the cloud environment. The wide adoption of containers as an application deployment platform also attracts attackers’ attention. Since the system calls are the entry points...
