Web server workload forecasting is one of the essential considerations in web server management and network upgrading. Due to variability of server workload distribution originated from unpredictable users’ surfing behavior, the measurement of Web server performance metrics is characterized and modeled in fuzzy manner. A fuzzy inference system is formed using four Web server performance metrics...

Cloud computing environments have introduced a new model of computing by shifting the location of computing infrastructure to the Internet network to reduce the cost associated with the management of hardware and software resources. The Cloud model uses virtualization technology to effectively consolidate virtual machines (VMs) into physical machines (PMs) to improve the utilization of PMs. Stu...

The cost of feed is the most important cost in pig meat production (about 60%), and the energy component represents the greatest proportion. Therefore, it is important to estimate precisely the energy value of feeds, either for least-cost formulation purposes or for adapting feed supply to energy requirements of animals. Evaluation of energy content of pig feeds is usually based on their digest...

BACKGROUND The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's (CDC's) Prevention Research Centers (PRC) Program underwent a 2-year evaluation planning project using a participatory process that allowed perspectives from the national community of PRC partners to be expressed and reflected in a national logic model. CONTEXT The PRC Program recognized the challenge in developing a feasible, useabl...

The number of state policies aimed at fostering biomass utilization has proliferated in recent years in the United States. Several states aim to increase the use of forest and agriculture biomass through renewable energy production. Several more indirectly encourage utilization by targeting aspects of the supply chain from trees standing in the forest to goods sold. This research classifies 370...

Objective: Irrational use of antibacterials is a concern during the COVID-19 pandemic. Hospital pharmacoepidemiology studies are important for evaluating rational medicines, especially antibacterials, pandemics. Defined daily doses (DDD) and drug utilization 90% (DU90%) established methods evaluation utilization. We aimed to evaluate antibacterial in tertiary hospital setting at Koç University ...

the study examined the utilization of information and communication technologies by agricultural extension workers in niger state, nigeria. to achieve the study objective, 206 respondents were proportionately and randomly selected from the three agricultural zones in the state through multi-stage sampling technique. validated questionnaire with reliability coefficient of 0.81 was used to collec...

conclusions the sophistication of electronic prescription and integration with ehr will become a reality, if all its stakeholders collaborate in developing fast and secure electronic prescription systems. it is plausible that the required infrastructure should be provided for implementation of the national integrated electronic prescription systems in countries without the system. given the bar...

This paper established evaluation index system of comprehensive utilization of land from the three aspects of economic benefits, ecological benefits and social benefits. Firstly, ridge regression (RR) is used to the indicator index system for screening, and then genetic algorithm and support vector machine (that is GASVM) is trained to the transformed samples. Moreover, the comprehensive evalua...

This study focuses on the development of complex libraries to advance knowledge for use in city center revitalization based relationship between location characteristics and utilization. First, we conducted a questionnaire survey 78 established 2008 2017. Second, analyzed trends considered their impact library Finally, planning document post-evaluation utilization examined methods promote cente...
