Tender-based resource management strategies have been brought out to implement resource allocation in cloud computing environment. Cost-effective approach for vivacious resource allocation (CVRA) is proposed with the improved connective double auction protocol conceived to authorize various kinds of resources traded among multiple buyers and multiple sellers at the same time enable task partiti...

In this paper, we focus on the problem in information integration system of obtaining data from heterogeneous data source accurately and effectively. XML is used as data exchange format of the wrapper. We design the wrapper architecture based on the conversion and management of the views as the bridge from global schema to local schema of various data sources. Our wrapper has two main subsystem...

ome of the tasks that cannot be solved effectively by conventional simulation have become tractable by extending the simulation to operate a in symbolic domain. Symbolic simulation involves introducing an expanded set of signal values and redefining the basic simulation functions to operate over this expanded set. This enables the simulator evaluate a range of operating conditions in a single r...

BACKGROUND Genetically engineered "Golden Rice" contains up to 35 microg beta-carotene per gram of rice. It is important to determine the vitamin A equivalency of Golden Rice beta-carotene to project the potential effect of this biofortified grain in rice-consuming populations that commonly exhibit low vitamin A status. OBJECTIVE The objective was to determine the vitamin A value of intrinsic...

This paper proposes optimization of DSR (Dynamic Source Routing) protocol in aspect of cache size and cache expiry time to meet Quality of Service requirements between source and destination node pairs. The nodes are assumed to use a TDMA (Time Division Multiple Access) based MAC (Medium Access Control) layer. Given a set of Q o S requirements, a set of wireless nodes and their initial position...
