This paper presents an analytical hardware model for tertiary-storage jukeboxes. A jukebox can store large amounts of data in a cost-effective way, which makes it eminently suitable for applications that handle large amounts of continuous-media files, large databases and backups. However, to use a jukebox effectively it is important to schedule the jukebox resources. In order to build accurate ...

As important as the concept of homeostasis is to understanding physiology, the term may not convey the complexity of interactions which are actually involved in the many facets of regulation. Adolph (1) has recently reflected upon the integrative nature of the discipline by giving specific examples of the coordination involved in many body functions. Most of us acquire the integrative perspecti...

Along with the significance of information systems in today’s global business operation, the significance of information systems control and audit is ever increasing in the effort to secure accuracy and integrity of vital business data.

Project summary Much attention has been paid recently to the design of learning spaces in the tertiary sector. Recent studies and projects have used thematic pedagogical concepts, such as student-centredness, active learning, collaborative group work and technological enhancement to drive design for educational spaces. In addition, new ways of thinking are surfacing about environments in relati...

Catalytic membrane reactors are multifunctional reactors, which provide improved performance over conventional reactors. These are used mainly for conducting hydrogenation/ dehydrogenation reactions, and synthesis of oxyorganic compounds by using inorganic membranes. In this paper, comprehensive model has been developed for a tubular membrane reactor, which is applicable to Pd or Pd alloys memb...
