refereed ) Tobias Kretschmer Upgrading and niche usage of PC operating systems
Microsoft has been dominating the market for PC operating systems (OS) for the last two decades. This paper analyzes the decision of rms to standardize on the mainstream OS family and assesses whether upgrading to the latest version within the MS family is a substitute for using niche OS. We address the following questions: 1) How likely is a rm to standardize on the Microsoft family? 2) How ...
متن کاملComparison of PC Operating Systems for Storage Support
In the past 10 years, the cost/megabyte of magnetic disks has been decreasing by almost a factor of two. This decrease makes large scale disk-based storage systems attractive. However, such systems usually come in the form of RAID arrays that have a much higher cost/megabyte than the underlying disks. To maintain the low cost ideal, COTS (commercial, off the shelf) components must be used. A la...
متن کاملManaging PC Operating Systems with a Revision Control System
During the lifetime of a workstation the system administrator is faced with constant change in system configuration (updates, new software). The users of a workstation, too, may change the system configuration. We describe the necessary concepts for maintaining many similar configured PC clients in a lab environment. The main software component consists of fsrcs, a revision control system simil...
متن کاملSeismic Safety Analysis and Upgrading of Operating Nuclear Power Plants
Experience of the March 11 2011, Great Tohoku earthquake clearly demonstrated that the earthquakes might be the dominating contributors to the overall risk of nuclear power plants (Institute of Nuclear Power Operations [INPO], 2011); International Atomic Energy Agency [IAEA], 2007). The seismic probabilistic safety assessments of several nuclear power plants also provided similar results. On th...
متن کاملinvestigation of single-user and multi-user detection methods in mc-cdma systems and comparison of their performances
در این پایان نامه به بررسی روش های آشکارسازی در سیستم های mc-cdma می پردازیم. با توجه به ماهیت آشکارسازی در این سیستم ها، تکنیک های آشکارسازی را می توان به دو دسته ی اصلی تقسیم نمود: آشکارسازی سیگنال ارسالی یک کاربر مطلوب بدون در نظر گرفتن اطلاعاتی در مورد سایر کاربران تداخل کننده که از آن ها به عنوان آشکارساز های تک کاربره یاد می شود و همچنین آشکارسازی سیگنال ارسالی همه ی کاربران فعال موجود در...
