Some Ways of Increasing Expressiveness in Russian Anecdotes

Anecdotes

The well-known Arpanet was the first operational packet-switching network. 1 Almost completely unknown is what we claim was the second operational packet-switching network, the LFK Network—although, admittedly , it was a fairly minimal network. Work on the LFK Network began in fall 1970, and it was installed and accepted by fall 1972. It was used as part of a logistics system relating to the No...

Increasing the Effectiveness of the Russian Grain Market

Considering the current upward drift in farm use all over the world, the Russian agro-food market has immense possibilities to create such economic conditions under which the farming sector could develop dynamically. The increase in the grain production is of crucial importance for all agricultural branches. In this respect, the grain sector is Russia’s strategically significant economic segmen...

Increasing the Expressiveness of Analytical Performance Models for Replicated Databases

The vast number of design options in replicated databases requires efficient analytical performance evaluations so that the considerable overhead of simulations or measurements can be focused on a few promising options. A review of existing analytical models in terms of their modeling assumptions, replication schemata considered, and network properties captured, shows that data replication and ...

Increasing Expressiveness of Composite Events Using Parameter Contexts

The event-condition-action paradigm (also known as triggers or ECA rules) gives a database “active” capabilities – the ability to react automatically to changes in the database or the environment. Events can be primitive or composite. Primitive events cannot be decomposed. Different types of primitive events can be composed using event composition operators to form composite events. When a comp...
