Abstract:
<p> Modern Internet services are multi-tiered and are typically hosted in virtualized shared platforms. While facilitating flexible service deployment, multi-tier architecture introduces significant challenges for Quality of Service (QoS) provisioning in hosted Internet services. Complex inter-tier dependencies and dynamic bottleneck tier shift are challenges inherent to tiered architectures. Hard-to-predict and bursty session-based Internet workloads further magnify this complexity. Virtualization of shared platforms adds yet another layer of complication in managing the hosted multi-tier Int

Abstract:
Tinnitus continues to challenge patients from all walks of life and clinicians from a variety of disciplines. The lack of an evidence base to support a specific treatment confounds efforts to provide consistent benefit to patients and in many instances creates in the patient the impression that nothing can be done to improve their situation. Part of the problem is that although patients rarely experience complete elimination of a tinnitus signal, they often experience relief when receiving effective counseling, specific coping strategies, and sound therapy.

This dissertation explores why Puerto Rico’s primary stakeholders’ participation in fisheries management is tokenistic at best. While participation discourses are present in Puerto Rico’s fisheries management, a parallel discourse about ‘overfishing’ and the ‘tragedy of the commons’ has created an irreconcilable gap between primary stakeholders and the management institutions. As part of this study I collected data in an arena where various key actors (commercial fishermen, recreational fishermen and agency experts) face each other in the consultation processes, i.e. scoping meetings and publi

Abstract:
Producing red bell peppers in high temperature and light environments can be challenging because many new semi-indeterminate varieties produce small plant canopies that leave fruit exposed to damage (sunscald) caused by solar radiation. Pepper production in Utah coincides with high air temperatures and solar radiation levels during July, August, and September. Increasing plant canopy size is one way to protect fruit from solar radiation. Low tunnels optimize plant growth by increasing air and soil temperatures. Growing plants under low tunnels early in the season could increase fruit shading l

Includes bibliographical references.<br>The African penguin (Spheniscus demersus) population in southern Africa has declined from approximately 575 000 adults at the start of the 20th century to 180 000 adults in the early 1990s. The population is still declining, leading to the International Union for the Conservation of Nature upgrading the status of African penguins to Endangered on the Red List of Threatened Species. This dissertation uses a systems dynamics approach to produce a model incorporating all important pressures. The model is stochastic and spatially explicit, and uses expert op

Abstract:
<p>Software prototyping is considered to be one of the most important tools that are used by software engineersnowadays to be able to understand the customer’s requirements, and develop software products that are efficient,reliable, and acceptable economically. Software engineers can choose any of the available prototyping approaches tobe used, based on the software that they intend to develop and how fast they would like to go during the softwaredevelopment. But generally speaking all prototyping approaches are aimed to help the engineers to understand thecustomer’s true needs, examine differ

Abstract:
<p> Implementation of safety management systems (SMS) in small helicopter entities is not widespread and the variation in different types of missions (segments) in the helicopter industry make this situation very complex.&nbsp; In 2005, industry, government and manufacturers identified as the International Helicopter Safety Team (IHST) set out to reduce the global helicopter accident rates, and SMS implementation was one strategy. What was missing was measuring the effectiveness of SMS as related to incident or accidents (IA), or the relationship of these on operational effectiveness (OE).&nb
