TCP Slow Start is a mechanism that is intended to allow a data transfer to start at a low bandwidth and quickly reach the peak bandwidth that it can use, subject to congestion control constraints that are enforced by intermediate network nodes. The current version is defined by RFC 5681 [2]. In general, the mechanism used for congestion control in TCP networks is that a congested router will ra...

This paper is a short introduction into the usage of WinMAREG. Two examples are used to illustrate the most common options and features of the software.

A simple nanoimprinting method creates arrays of ferroelectric polymer structures suitable for low-cost, non-volatile memories. With the development of nanoimprinted high-quality ferroelectric nanomesa arrays, it seems that we now have all the necessary ingredients to print inexpensive, disposable organic memory chips. Figure 1. The nanoimprinting method and the two ways it can be used in non-v...

Performance studies of actual parallel systems usually tend to concentrate on the eeectiveness of a given implementation. This is often done in the absolute, without quantitave reference to the potential parallelism contained in the programs from the point of view of the execution paradigm. We feel that studying the parallelism inherent to the programs is interesting, as it gives information ab...
