Log-structured applications and file systems have been used to achieve high write throughput by sequentializing writes. Flash-based storage systems, due to flash memory’s out-of-place update characteristic, have also relied on log-structured approaches. Our work investigates the impacts to performance and endurance in flash when multiple layers of log-structured applications and file systems ar...

Friction welding is a solid state bonding technique which utilizes the heat generated by rubbing of two faying surfaces for the coalescence of material. Friction welding process is normally considered as a multi-input and multi-output process. Optimization of friction welding parameters is required to get good quality joints. Present study establishes the relationship between the input variable...

This paper presents a high-speed, low-power and low area encoder for implementation of flash ADCs. Key technique for design of this encoder is performed by convert the conventional 1-of-N thermometer code to 2-of-M codes (M = ¾ N). The proposed encoder is composed from two-stage; in the first stage, thermometer code are converted to 2-of-M codes by used 2-input AND and 4-i...

This paper presents the design of a new Web server architecture called the asymmetric multi process event driven AMPED architecture and evaluates the performance of an implementation of this architecture the Flash Web server The Flash Web server combines the high performance of single process event driven servers on cached workloads with the performance of multi process and multi threaded serve...

The overall aim of the Marine Strategy Framework Directive (MSFD) is to achieve or maintain Good Environmental Status (GES) within marine environment. Turkey in process using/developing an Ecosystems-Based Management approach for governance its waters, based on European Union (EU) Directive. legislative history, conceptual approach, structure and content Directive, as well some unique regulator...

A general multi-scale framework for multi-component, multi-phase equilibrium flash calculations, which uses information at the molecular and bulk fluid length scales, is described. The multi-scale Gibbs–Helmholtz constrained (GHC) EOS approach of Lucia (2010) is extended to include the use of (1) coarse grained NTP Monte Carlo simulations to gather pure component internal energies of departure,...

Topic distillation is the process of finding representative pages relevant to a given query. Well-known topic distillation approaches such as the HITS algorithm have shown to be useful in identifying high quality pages of the most popular topic within a query specific graph of hyperlinked documents. Many succeeding researchers focus on augmenting HITS with further content analysis to alleviate ...

In the last decade, several initiatives have been taken at a European level to adopt Marine Strategy Framework Directive (MSFD) by promoting coordination and stimulating integrated actions leading consistent views on its final goal: achievement of good environmental status (GES). holistic approach, MSFD fully acknowledges complexity variability marine ecosystems demands constant scientific supp...

This paper presents the experimental evaluation of a fully-differential offset-compensated voltage comparator designed for use in multilevel (ML) Flash memory sensing. The comparator is made up by an input buffering stage followed by a gain stage that performs a regenerative action. The circuit has been integrated in a 0.13-μm triple-well Flash CMOS process. The experimental evaluation showed a...
