Abstract. Many cloud technologies available today support dynamically scaling out and back computing services. The predominantly session-oriented nature and the carrier-grade requirements of telco services (such as SIP services) complicate the successful adoption of dynamic scaling in a telco cloud. This paper investigates how to enable dynamic scaling of these telco services in an effective ma...

Today, steel tower cranes are widely used in the construction sites. In this study, the accident occurred in Turkey in 2006 with the overturning of a tower crane in a construction site and the damage occurred on the nearby buildings due to this accident were taken into consideration. At first, the technical characteristics of the EC-H type tower crane used in that construction and then the reas...

With improving automation in many critical domains, operators will be expected to handle long periods of low task load while monitoring a system, and possibly responding to emergent situations. Monitoring the psychophysiological state of the operator during low task load may detect maladapted attention states in order to predict performance and facilitate a more effective workload transition du...

Growing penetration of wind power challenges to power system security, since the conventional generators may not have sufficient capacity to compensate wind power fluctuation plus the reverse peak regulation. In this paper, the high-capacity pumped-storage and fast-response battery-storage are coordinated to compensate the variation of both wind power and load, aiming at shifting peak load, res...

There is limited investigation of the interaction between motor unit recruitment and rate coding for modulating force during standing or responding to external perturbations. Fifty-seven motor units were recorded from the medial gastrocnemius muscle with intramuscular electrodes in response to external perturbations in standing. Anteriorly directed perturbations were generated by applying loads...

in the current engineering practices, buildings are commonly designed for an effective lifetime of 50 years. this lifetime can increase the cost of buildings with short lifetimes and can reduce the safety level of buildings with large lifetimes. in this paper, a “service-life factor” has been defined. applying this factor into the nominal values of live, earthquake, wind, and snow loads, the ef...

Now a days the demand for programmable network is Increasing due to high traffic in network and to increase the performance of network. Programmable network provides the way to network operator to configure the network policies for responding different network events and applications.SDN is new technology to simplify the network management by increasing network programmability. This paper surve...
