All-Adjacent Matrices and Their Application to Disk Shadowing
نویسنده
چکیده
We present the combinatorial design for a kind of matrices called all-adjacent matrices. Such a matrix is constructed from a given set of elements; each element of the matrix is adjacent, within some column, to every other element of the set. We present the algorithm for constructing an all-adjacent matrix. These matrices have an important application—to the laying out of logical disks in a shadowed disk system so that the seek distance of read requests is minimized.

متن کاملBlack-Hole X-Ray Transients: The Effect of Irradiation on Time-Dependent Accretion Disk Structure
Some effects of irradiation on time-dependent accretion-disk models for black hole X-ray novae are presented. Two types of irradiation are considered: direct irradiation from the inner hot disk and indirect irradiation as might be reflected by a corona or chromosphere above the disk. The shadowing effect of the time-dependent evolution of the disk height and consequent blocking of the outer dis...
متن کاملThe Effect of Teaching Metacognitive Listening Strategy during Shadowing Activity on Field-Dependent and Field-Independent EFL Learners’ Listening Comprehension
This study aimed to compare the effect of teaching metacognitive listening strategies through shadowing activity on the listening comprehension of field-dependent (FD) and field-independent (FI) EFL learners. Since the researcher had access only to female participants,85 female EFL learners from a language institute in Tehran, at the pre-intermediate level of proficiency with the age range of 1...
متن کاملOn the interplay between flaring and shadowing in disks around Herbig Ae/Be stars
Context. Based on their spectral energy distribution, Herbig stars have been categorized into two observational groups, reflecting their overall disk structure: group I members have disks with a high degree of flaring as opposed to their group II counterparts. Literature results show that the structure of the disk is a strong function of the disk mass in μm-sized dust grains. Aims. We investiga...
متن کاملTandem TR 88.5 DISK SHADOWING
. ABSTRACT Disk shadowing is a technique for maintaining a set of two or more identical disk images on separate disk devices. Its primary purpose is to enhance reliability and availability of secondary storage by providing multiple paths to redundant data. However, shadowing can also boost I/O performance. In this paper, we contend that intelligent device scheduling of shadowed discs increases ...
