prediction
First iPhone 2.0 antivirus software released
News However, that prediction has not been realised yet. The company said the latest version of its Virus Barrier X5 10.5.3 antivirus package for Mac OS X, released last week, was also able to scan the iPhone for viruses. [21 Jul 2008]
ATM Dynamic Bandwidth Allocation Using F-ARIMA Prediction Model
White Paper Traditional traffic models such as AR and ARMA are not able to capture this long-range-dependence making them ineffective for the traffic prediction task. The paper presents a simplified adaptive prediction scheme to reduce the F-ARIMA... [11 Jul 2008]
Using Destination-Set Prediction to Improve the Latency/Bandwidth Tradeoff in Shared-Memory Multiprocessors
White Paper Destination-set prediction can improve the latency/bandwidth tradeoff in shared-memory multiprocessors. The destination set is the collection of processors that receive a particular coherence request. [11 Jul 2008]
Prediction Based Routing for Vehicular Ad Hoc Networks
White Paper Development in short range wireless LAN (WLAN) and long range wireless WAN (WWAN) technologies have motivated recent efforts to integrate the two. This creates new application scenarios that were not possible before. [11 Jul 2008]
A Rate Control Scheme for H.264 Video Under Low Bandwidth Channel
White Paper Although some rate control schemes are proposed to circumvent the dilemma, the inaccurate prediction model and improper bit allocation deter H.264 application on low bandwidth channel. The dilemma of the Quantization Parameter (QP) being involved... [11 Jul 2008]
Improving Performance of a Dynamic Load Balancing System by Using Number of Effective Tasks
White Paper Since the initial placement requires that the tasks be scheduled before execution, all resource usage must be provided in terms of the prediction. This approach can severely affect the execution time when it uses an inaccurate prediction. [10 Jul 2008]
Decentralized Load Balancing for Highly Irregular Search Problems
White Paper This paper presents a Dynamic Load Balancing (DLB) policy for problems characterized by a highly irregular search tree, whereby no reliable workload prediction is available. DLB approaches based on global statistics are known to provide optimal... [10 Jul 2008]
Design of a Crawler With Bounded Bandwidth
White Paper The prediction allows to activate the optimal number of fetcher threads in order to exploit the assigned bandwidth. This paper presents an algorithm to bound the bandwidth of a Web crawler. The crawler collects statistics on the transfer rate of... [10 Jul 2008]
A Log Analysis Based Intrusion Detection System for the Creation of a Specification Based Intrusion Prevention System
White Paper It focuses on what is actually being asked of the system and use that understanding together with research on prediction based systems to build a specification based Intrusion Prevention System based on the patterns extracted from higher level... [10 Jul 2008]
A Failure Predictive and Policy-Based High Availability Strategy for Linux High Performance Computing Cluster
White Paper This paper report the newly introduced ideas and experiments on hardware level failure detection and prediction based on the Service Availability Forum's Hardware Platform Interface (OpenHPI). The Open Source Cluster Application Resources (OSCAR... [10 Jul 2008]
U.S. Navy Relies on SGI and Platform LSF to Execute Complex Weather Prediction Models
White Paper FNMOC is recognized internationally as one of the world's premier Numerical Weather Prediction centers. The challenge was to implement a new high performance computing environment that can execute complex weather prediction models, easily scale up... [03 Jul 2008]
In his own words: Bill Gates' best quotes
News Gates made this bold and ultimately wrong prediction to the BBC in 2004. As the world's most famous tech boss, Bill Gates has been quoted more times than you can shake a stick at - but there have been some particularly insightful, bold and wide of... [26 Jun 2008]
RFID could disrupt medical devices, say researchers
News But the future of healthcare is likely to involve far more RFID-style tech, according to a recent report by Ofcom, which included a prediction that in-body and on-body wireless networks could become the norm over the next decade for monitoring... [25 Jun 2008]
Forecasting tech blows away stormy weather
News The improved forecasting models include the Short Term Ensemble Prediction System - which uses radar data to predict the location of extreme rainfall several hours before it occurs, the Met Office Global and Regional Ensemble Prediction System and... [13 Jun 2008]
HMRC tax credit system: Lost "almost £10bn"
News The Liberal Democrats say the quarterly figures released by the HMRC show that the government has failed to hit its prediction of reducing the number of overpayments by a third. The cost of flaws in the UK's tax credit system has increased to... [22 May 2008]
