assiganga stream is an important tributary of bhagirathi river in central himalaya (india). the stream is characterized by heterogeneity in habitat and substratum features harboring diverse fish fauna. at present this stream is facing threat of being fragmented by the construction of two hydro-electric projects. present study aimed to study fish diversity and their habitat use in assiganga stre...

[1] Hydrologic processes control much of the export of organic matter and nutrients from the land surface. It is the variability of these hydrologic processes that produces variable patterns of nutrient transport in both space and time. In this paper, we explore how hydrologic ‘‘connectivity’’ potentially affects nutrient transport. Hydrologic connectivity is defined as the condition by which d...

We introduce a new transport-layer technology, VoMoTM, optimized for delivery of multimedia services over future wireless/wired networks that is based on innovations at the transport layer of the network. The Quality of Service (QoS) implications of this technology appear promising, and its close relationship to emerging IETF protocols, such as the Stream Control Transmission Protocol (SCTP) ar...

This document proposes a new mechanism for TCP and Stream Control Transmission Protocol (SCTP) that can be used to recover lost segments when a connection’s congestion window is small. The "Early Retransmit" mechanism allows the transport to reduce, in certain special circumstances, the number of duplicate acknowledgments required to trigger a fast retransmission. This allows the transport to u...

The Stream Control Transmission Protocol (SCTP) is a reliable transport protocol operating on top of a connectionless packet network such as IP. It is designed to transport public switched telephone network (PSTN) signaling messages over the connectionless packet network, but is capable of broader applications. This memo defines the Management Information Base (MIB) module which describes the m...

The MPEG-2 International standard consists of three layers: audio, video and systems [2]. The audio and the video layers define the syntax and semantics of the corresponding "elementary streams." The systems layer supports synchronization and interleaving of multiple compressed streams, buffer initialization and management, and time identification. RFC 2250 [3] describes packetization technique...

We present a fast and well documented two-stream algorithm for radiative transfer and particle transport in vertically inhomogeneous, layered media. The physical processes considered are internal production (emission), scattering, absorption, and Lambertian reflection at the lower boundary. The medium may be forced by internal sources as well as by parallel or uniform incidence at the top bound...

After decades of development, computational fluid dynamics (CFD), which solves mechanics and, more generally, transport phenomena problems using numerical analysis, has become a main-stream tool in many areas engineering practice [...]
