We present an edge-to-edge flow control scheme which enables an ISP to achieve weighted max-min fair bandwidth allocation among all source-destination pairs on a per-aggregate basis within its network. The motivation behind the scheme is the absence of per-aggregate flow control in the current Internet, resulting in inability to enforce a certain fairness on source-destination flows. The propos...

Abstract Urban forest soil is often disturbed by rapid urbanization. Organic mulching effective for improving quality and aggregate stability. This study evaluated how binding agents changed stability through organic in urban soils. Three treatments were applied Jiufeng National Forest Park, Beijing: (1) no mulch (control); (2) wood chips alone (5 cm thickness); and, (3) + compost (This was div...

This paper investigates the relationship between uniqueness of Nash equilibria and local stability with respect to the best-response dynamics in the cases of sum-aggregative and symmetric games. If strategies are equilibrium complements, local stability and uniqueness are the same formal properties of the game. With equilibrium substitutes, local stability is stronger than uniqueness. If player...

Dilatively stable processes generalize the class of infinitely divisible self-similar processes. We reformulate and extend the definition of dilative stability introduced by Iglói (2008) using characteristic functions. We also generalize the concept of aggregate similarity introduced by Kaj (2005). It turns out that these two notions are essentially the same for infinitely divisible processes. ...

With the strengthened regulation on the mandatory use of recycled aggregate, development of construction materials using recycled aggregate has recently increased. This study aimed to secure the performance of asphalt concrete mixture by developing recycled-modified asphalt using recycled basalt aggregate from the Jeju area. The strength of the basalt aggregate from the Jeju area used in this s...

Bioinspired core-bound polymer micellar aggregates were synthesized by photocrosslinking thymine-functionalized cores using short UV irradiation; H-bonding between thymines in the core is also believed to increase micellar aggregate stability.
