A management tool which is needed for monitoring and managing cluster-based DBMSs has been little studied. So, we design and implement a cluster-based DBMS management tool with high-availability that monitors the status of nodes in a cluster system as well as the status of DBMS instances in a node. The tool enables users to recognize a single virtual system image and provides them with the stat...

Cluster headache pain is very intense, usually increases in intensity very rapidly from onset, and attacks are often frequent. These clinical features result in significant therapeutic challenges. The most effective pharmacological treatment options for acute cluster attack include subcutaneous sumatriptan, 100% oxygen, and intranasal zolmitriptan. Subcutaneous or intramuscular dihydroergotamin...

We have implemented a proof-of-concept prototype named Blutopia that embodies our ideas of a new software life cycle management paradigm driven chiefly by simplicity. Aiming at facilitating management, Blutopia allows administrators to deploy multiple machines fast and effortlessly in as little time as it takes to perform a system reboot. It is equally easy to manage and augment the deployed in...

An active Web cluster system is an active network that has a collection of locally distributed servers that are interconnected by active switches, providing a Web application service. In this paper, we introduce the ALBM (Adaptive Load Balancing and Management) active cluster system that provides proactive management. The architecture of the ALBM active cluster and its underlying components are...

EnFuzion and MOSIX are two packages that represent different approaches to cluster management. EnFuzion is a user-level queuing system that can dispatch a predetermined number of processes to a cluster. It is a commercial version of Nimrod, a tool that supports parameter sweep applications on a variety of platforms. MOSIX, on the other hand, is operating system (kernel) level software that supp...

Clusters of workstations are increasingly used for applications requiring high levels of both performance and reliability. Certain fundamental services are highly desirable to achieve these twin goals of network-based cluster system analysis and management. Among these services is the ability to detect network and node failures and the capability to efficiently determine computer and network lo...

The objectives of this research were to study the varieties and relationships of yield and quality traits under two harvesting management procedures concerning forage dry matter (DM yield) and 5 quality traits such as Dry Matter Digestibility (DMD%), Water Soluble Carbohydrates (WSC%), Crude Protein (CP%), Acid Detergent Fibre (ADF%) and total ash in tall wheatgrass (Agropyron elongatum). In th...
