Large-scale P2P systems typically have hundreds of thousands of peers that involve frequent dynamic activities. Current structured overlays do not identify well the rhythm in the dynamic activities, thus resulting in high maintenance overhead. In this paper, we present a new state cache system, called SCS, that solves the problem by exploiting the access patterns of dynamic activities in P2P sy...

The present research aims at predicting the required activities for preventive maintenance in terms of equipment optimal cost and reliability. The research sample includes all offshore drilling equipment of FATH 59 Derrick Site affiliated with National Iranian Drilling Company. Regarding the method, the research uses a field methodology and in terms of its objectives, it is classified as an app...

Major overhauls, outages, shutdowns and turnarounds (MoOSTs) are significant maintenance interventions needed on a periodic basis to optimise the performance of physical industrial assets (PIAs). However, uncertainties in forms emergent discovery work which sometimes cause delays cost overruns quite common partly because, MoOSTs characterised by inherent challenges such as, but not limited to, ...

OBJECTIVE Terminological Systems (TSs) need to be maintained in order to sustain their utility. This paper describes a study aiming at the standardization of the maintenance processes of medical TSs by capturing the criteria for the management of the maintenance processes into a framework. Furthermore, this paper describes application of the framework, which sheds light on the current practice ...

 To the best of our knowledge, imaging of accidental exposure to radioactive fluorine-18 (F-18) due to liquid spill has not been described earlier in the scientific literature. The short half-life of F-18 (t½=110 min), current radiation safety requirements, and Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) regulations on radiopharmaceuticals have restrained the occurrence of these incidents. The possibilit...
