spend much of their time idle, and various schemes have been proposed to use this idle time productively. We have used this approach to improve overall performance in storage systems. The most common approach is to off-load activity from busy periods to less-busy ones in order to improve system responsiveness. In addition, speculative work can be performed in idle periods in the hope that it wi...
متن کاملEcology and neurophysiology of sleep in two wild sloth species.
STUDY OBJECTIVES Interspecific variation in sleep measured in captivity correlates with various physiological and environmental factors, including estimates of predation risk in the wild. However, it remains unclear whether prior comparative studies have been confounded by the captive recording environment. Herein we examine the effect of predation pressure on sleep in sloths living in the wild...
متن کاملSoft tissue recession around implants: is it still unavoidable?--Part I.
When treatment with dental implants is indicated, an accurate diagnosis must be made to evaluate the clinical parameters and determine the optimal time for immediate or delayed (ie, early or late) implant placement and loading following tooth extraction. It is also important to identify complications and their implications on the aesthetic outcome. This article explains the behavior of the hard...
متن کاملMaintaining secrecy when information leakage is unavoidable
Sharing and maintaining long, random keys is one of the central problems in cryptography. This thesis provides about ensuring the security of a cryptographic key when partial information about it has been, or must be, leaked to an adversary. We consider two basic approaches: 1. Extracting a new, shorter, secret key from one that has been partially compromised. Specifically, we study the use of ...
متن کاملNurse Job Satisfaction: Is a Revised Conceptual Framework Needed?

Built on this necessity, the present study wa...
