Over the past decades, research on linguistic impact of globalization has foregrounded socio-pragmatic meaning potential and mental categorization anglicisms, looking for signs agentivity contextual sensitivity in way receptor language users incorporate borrowed English resources into their speech, both form function. This brought attention to understudied phenotypes contact-induced variation c...

Unstructured peer-to-peer network is a prevalent model in current P2P networks. In general, unstructured P2P model divides the sharing file into many chunks. A peer must search the positions before downloads a chunk. Since a peer does not know the global topology of the overlay network and the distributions of the wanted chunks, what he can do is flooding chunk queries without a proper order wh...

We propose Chunks and Tasks, a parallel programming model built on abstractions for both data and work. The application programmer specifies how data and work can be split into smaller pieces, chunks and tasks, respectively. The Chunks and Tasks library maps the chunks and tasks to physical resources. In this way we seek to combine user friendliness with high performance. An application program...

the present paper aims to examine the role of frequency lexicon in assessing lexical proficiency of persian learners. addressing the frequency distribution pattern of persian words, the research which is conducted in corpus-based method studies the relationship between words and lexical proficiency as well as derives the frequency lexicon from persian corpus. to do so, formal and colloquial per...

Very large multidimensional arrays are commonly used in data intensive scientific computations as well as on-line analytical processing applications referred to as MOLAP. The storage organization of such arrays on disks is done by partitioning the large global array into fixed size sub-arrays called chunks or tiles that form the units of data transfer between disk and memory. Typical queries in...
