This work studies the interaction of Web proxy cache coherency and replacement policies using trace-driven simulations. We specifically examine the relative importance of each type of policy in affecting the overall costs, the potential of incorporating coherency issues in cache replacement and the inclusion of additional factors such as frequency of resource use in replacement and coherency po...

Anew, fully conservedminimal adjustment schemewith temperature and salinity (T,S) coherency is presented for eliminating false static instability generated from analyzing and assimilating stable ocean (T, S) profiles data, that is, from generalized averaging over purely observed data (data analysis) or over modeled/observed data (data assimilation). This approach consists of a variational metho...

Introduction Traditionally, the analysis of seismic data involved looking for continuous events on seismic data, from which structural and stratigraphic features could be mapped. However, we are also interested in mapping discontinuous features such as faults and fractures. A method for identifying these discontinuities was first introduced by Bahorich and Farmer (1995) and called the coherency...

In this paper we investigate coherence sets in polarimetric SAR interferometry. The coherence set is closely related to the numerical range (field of values). This paper aims to bring the numerical range to the attention of the radar research community. The mathematical understanding of the numerical range helps to understand theoretical and physical properties of coherence and coherency matrix...

Applications in finance and telecommunications (intelligent network, network management, mobile computing) cause renewed interest in distributed and replicated data management. Since synchronous update of replicated data is experienced to degrade distributed systems performance substantially, relaxing the requirement of coherency (mutual consistency) has become a favorable approach to achieve h...

We propose an approach for quantifying the biological relatedness between gene products, based on their properties, and measure their similarities using exclusively statistical NLP techniques and Gene Ontology (GO) annotations. We also present a novel similarity figure of merit, based on the vector space model, which assesses gene expression analysis results and scores gene product clusters' bi...

Why this method is Important The Coherency Architect should consider the case study method an important tool since the Architect has to investigate the organization or organizations they work with to investigate and uncover problems that needs to be solved before the organization can continue with it plans to achieve its goals. The Case Study Method gives the Coherency Architect tools which can...

Structural models with no solution are incoherent, and those multiple solutions incomplete. We show that occasionally binding constraints not generically coherent. Coherency requires restrictions on the parameters or support of distribution shocks. In presence shocks, cannot be independent from each other, so assumption orthogonality structural shocks is incompatible coherency. Models whose coh...

A simple model for the interfacial free energy of a semicoherent interface is used to develop expressions for interface stresses, which are surface thermodynamic quantities associated with solid–solid interfaces. An analysis of the thermodynamics of thin film epitaxy is presented that incorporates the effects of free surface and interface stresses, and an expression for the critical thickness f...
