AutoBAHN (Automated Bandwidth Allocation across Heterogeneous Networks) has specified and is now prototyping a Bandwidth on Demand (BoD) service intended to operate in a multidomain environment using heterogeneous transmission technologies. The AutoBAHN system aims at providing a guaranteed capacity, connection-oriented service between two end points. This paper highlights the architecture of t...

This paper reports a simulation study of the interaction between the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) and Bandwidth on Demand (BoD) mechanisms in broadband satellite networks. It forms part of a broader effort aiming at the identification of the proper mechanisms and algorithms to efficiently carry TCP traffic over these networks. We investigate two aspects of this rather complicated interac...

Finding the most probable parse tree in the framework of Data-Oriented Parsing (DOP), a Stochastic Tree Substitution Parsing scheme developed by R. Bod (Bod 92), has proven to be NP-hard in the most general case (Sima’an 96a). However, introducing some a priori restrictions on the choice of the elementary trees (i.e. grammar rules) leads to interesting DOP instances with polynomial time-complex...

In the present study the aim of investigation is physical and chemical parameters of ground water and soil. By selected Physical and chemical parameters it is found that (1).Biological oxygen demand (BOD) and chemical oxygen demand (COD) are directly proportional to each other where dissolved oxygen (DO) is indirectly proportional to BOD and COD. (2). Total dissolved solids, alkalinity and hard...

This study examines how the board of directors (BOD) Islamic banks (IBs) might affect earnings management differently, compared to BOD conventional (CBs). Our results indicate that bank...
