Today’s data-intensive applications rely increasingly uponmain memory to serve high volumes of data at low latency. In a way, main memory is the first line of defense against the massive explosion of data that we are witnessing. For decades, main memory has derived most of its improvement in cost and performance from the rapid scaling of its physical substrate: DRAM. However, DRAM process techn...

We investigate the thickness and seismic velocity structure of the Rukwa Rift crust by modeling seismograms from the 1994 Mw 5.9 Rukwa earthquake and teleseismic receiver functions recorded on a broadband seismic station at the southeastern end of the rift. Two methods have been used to model receiver functions, Hstacking and waveform inversion, yielding Moho depth estimates of 34 ± 2 km (Hstac...

Of the commonly accepted tools for assessing habitual dietary intake in epidemiological studies, the one that is most often used in population surveys is the food frequency questionnaire (FFQ) (Briefel et al., 1992; Kushi, 1994). When using the FFQ, the results generally represent usual intakes over an extended period and are easier to collect and process. The FFQ is then used to study associat...

In 2004, Rodr'{i}guez-Lallena and '{U}beda-Flores have introduced a class of bivariate copulas which generalizes some known families such as the Farlie-Gumbel-Morgenstern distributions. In 2006, Dolati and '{U}beda-Flores presented multivariate generalizations of this class. Then in 2011, Kim et al. generalized Rodr'{i}guez-Lallena and '{U}beda-Flores' study to any given copula family. But ther...

The KIM platform provides a novel Knowledge and Information Management infrastructure and services for automatic semantic annotation, indexing, and retrieval of documents. It provides mature infrastructure for scaleable and customizable information extraction (IE1) as well as annotation and document management, based on GATE2. In order to provide basic level of performance and allow easy bootst...
