Start Ups; Let’s Start Them Up - An Inside View in the Indian Start Up Scenario

Can start-ups finish up?

n this issue of Circulation: Cardiovascular Quality and Outcomes, Xu et al present findings from a search of US patents related to bare-metal coronary stents in an effort to gain insight on how medical device innovation starts and how policies in the United States might help to promote more innovation. 1 Of the 245 patents identified by their search strategy for the years 1984 to 1994, the auth...

The Transition Stage in the Start-up of an Anaerobic Sludge Digester

The start up &#10 dynamics of a one-million and two-hundred-thousand liter anaerobic digester of municipal waste treatment sludge was studied. In the digester, mixing was accomplished by circulation of the produced biogas at a rate of 0.13 m3 per hour of the digester volume per hour. During the nine-month study, no serious phenomena of foaming, getting sour, temperature fall, etc. were observe...

Optimizing TCP Start-up Performance

The performance of many networking protocols is dependent on a handful of tuning parameters. However, it is not obvious how to set or adapt these parameters to optimize performance. We believe that this optimization task can benefit from passive monitoring of current network performance. In this paper, we apply this methodology for initializing TCP parameters, such as initial congestion window ...
