White Paper Such systems represent generalized models for a wide class of phenomena which involve queueing and prioritization and which are considered in QoS and CoS network problems. The variety of priority queueing systems with random switchover times is... [17 Jul 2008]
Berners-Lee and friends promote web science study
News He said: "[Students] need to be taught something about techniques for looking at structures, tracking data through complex networks, how to understand the basic economics and social psychology of interaction so they've got some appreciation of how... [14 Jul 2008]
An Adaptive Load Balancing Method for Parallel Molecular Dynamics Simulations
White Paper This paper describes an adaptive method for achieving load balance in parallel computations simulating phenomena which are distributed over a spatially extended region, but are local in nature. It has tested the method on standard short-ranged... [10 Jul 2008]
Load Balancing of the Direct Linear Multisplitting Method in a Grid Computing Environment
White Paper Many scientific applications need to solve very large sparse linear systems in order to simulate phenomena close to reality. Grid computing is an answer to the growing demand of computational power but communication times are significant and the... [10 Jul 2008]
A Reference Architecture for Web Browsers
White Paper This paper examines the history of the web browser domain and identifies several underlying phenomena that have contributed to its evolution. Reference architecture for a domain captures the fundamental subsystems common to systems of that domain... [09 Jul 2008]
Gordon Lovell-Read
CIO Profile Relentlessly inquisitive, he has a self-confessed "unhealthy" interest in quantum mechanics and particle physics - driven by a frustration and fascination that we still do not have scientific explanations for a whole range of phenomena. [11 Jun 2008]
On Dependency Changes in Collaborative Software Development
White Paper This paper investigates the phenomena of dependency changes - changes to software systems caused by other changes. Dependency changes are one measure of the level of interdependency in a software module, therefore a good approximation to the study... [01 May 2008]
Knowledge Augmentation for Aligning Ontologies: An Evaluation in the Biomedical Domain
White Paper Knowledge augmentation based on semantic relations embedded in concept names through various linguistic phenomena has proved a powerful technique, generating as many relations as are represented explicitly in FMA. [10 Apr 2008]
Understanding Power Factor, Crest Factor, and Surge Factor
White Paper The terms Power Factor, Crest Factor, and Surge Factor refer to completely different and unrelated phenomena. These characteristics are often specified for UPS systems, and customers will sometimes place them in specifications. [10 Apr 2008]
Personal Privacy for Computer Users ...
White Paper All of these phenomena raise issues of privacy in the age of cyberspace. Personal computers have provided fertile ground for data collection about individuals. Many Web sites store information about individual users' browsing patterns in files... [10 Apr 2008]

Congestion Propagation Among Routers in the Internet
White Paper In recent years, various non-linear phenomena of the Internet have been discovered. For instance, it is reported that congestion of a router propagates to neighboring routers like a wave. Several researches on congestion propagation among routers... [05 Dec 2007]
An Experimental Study of ARQ Protocol in 802.11b Wireless LAN
White Paper This paper also reports certain client interference phenomena which might not be obvious to theoretical and simulation studies. This paper presents the results of an experimental study of the ARQ protocol in 802.11b networks. [05 Dec 2007]
Minority Report: Apple's blues
Comment For Apple, it has to deal with the ignominy of a flagship software launch resulting in a problem that resembled one of the most ridiculed phenomena in Windows. Instead, the OS' 'blue screen of death' has left Apple with damage to its image and... [05 Nov 2007]
Social networking goes mainstream
AS Analysis Web 2.0 phenomena have certainly piqued the panel's interest before. Facebook's Mark Zuckerberg's meteoric rise from nowhere to Agenda Setters top spot proves that 2007 is the year of social networking. [12 Oct 2007]
