Virtual machine placement (VMP) is an important issue in selecting the most suitable set of physical hosts for a set of virtual machines in cloud computing environment. VMP problem consists of two sub problems: incremental placement (VMiP) problem and consolidated placement (VMcP) problem. The challenge in VMcP problem is how to find optimal solution effectively and efficiently as well as it is...

the anterior maxilla presents a challenging milieu interior for ideal placement of implants because of the compromised bone quality. with the advent of intraoral bone harvesting and augmentation techniques, immediate implant placement into fresh extraction sockets have become more predictable. immediate implant placement has numerous advantages compared to the delayed procedure including superi...

OBJECTIVES This in vitro study evaluated the microtensile bond strength (MTBS) of a methacrylate-based compared to a silorane-based resin composite in Class I cavity using different placement techniques. MATERIALS AND METHODS Class I cavities with dimension of (4 mm long, 4 mm wide, 3 mm deep) were prepared in extracted sound human molars. The teeth were randomly divided into six groups. The ...

PURPOSE This study compared the microleakage of an experimental low-shrinkage resin composite (Hermes), a nanofilled resin composite material (Filtek Supreme) and a hybrid resin composite (Tetric Ceram) using a dye penetration method. METHODS AND MATERIALS Class I cavities prepared in 60 human molars were randomly divided into 3 groups according to the restorative material used. The preparati...

In the context of physical synthesis, large-scale standard-cell placement algorithms must facilitate incremental changes to layout, both local and global. In particular, flexible gate sizing, net buffering and detail placement require a certain amount of unused space in every region of the die. The need for “local” whitespace is further emphasized by temperature and power-density limits as well...

has the desired specifications. The main role of state feedback control is to stabilize a given system so that all closed-loop eigenvalues are placed in the left half of the complex plane. The following theorem gives a condition under which is possible to place system poles in the desired locations. Theorem 8.1 Assuming that the pair is controllable, there exists a feedback matrix such that the...
