The portability of new miniaturized devices, together with their ability to connect conveniently to networks in different places, makes mobile computing possible. Recent advances that have led to increasing bandwidths, for wireless communications, enable mobile users to utilize a vast range of sophisticated services such as real-time collaborative services. Garnet Collaborative system is a univ...

Introduction: Although the Lunar Magma Ocean (LMO) hypothesis has achieved wide acceptance in the lunar science community, it has never been fully tested experimentally. Presented here are the first results of equilibrium crystallization experiments using the Taylor Whole Moon (TWM) composition [1]. The first mafic cumulates in this LMO are dominated by forsteritic olivine, low-Ca pyroxene and,...

ATOLL (Atomic Low Latency) is a new high speed interconnect solution for cluster computing. It is equipped with a fully integrated network on a chip, which is currently a unique feature. Therefore hostinterface, network interface and switch come as one, integrated, single solution. Moreover, the network interface card allows for dynamic reconfiguration during runtime. This includes dynamic prof...

[1] We present calibrated measurements of ELF waves generated by modulated HF heating of the auroral electrojet by the High frequency Active Auroral Research Program (HAARP) HF transmitter in Gakona, Alaska, and detected after propagating more than 4400 km in the Earth-ionosphere waveguide to Midway Atoll. The magnitude of the 2125 Hz wave received at Midway Atoll is consistent with the radiati...

We analyzed the recently published kHz QPO data in the neutron star low-mass X-ray binaries (LMXBs), in order to investigate the different correlations of the twin peak kilohertz quasi-periodic oscillations (kHz QPOs) in bright Z sources and in the less luminous Atoll sources. We find that a power-law relation ν1 ∼ ν 2 between the upper and the lower kHz QPOs with different indices: b ≃1.5 for ...

While standard processors achieve supercomputer performance, a performance gap exists between the interconnect of MPP's and COTS. Standard solutions like Ethernet can not keep up with the demand for high speed communication of todays powerful CPU's. Hence, high speed interconnects have an important impact on a cluster's performance. While standard solutions for processing nodes exist, communica...

The new species Tosanoides obama is described from two specimens collected at a depth of 90-92 m off Kure Atoll and Pearl and Hermes Atoll, Northwestern Hawaiian Islands. It differs from the other two species of this genus in life color and in certain morphological characters, such as number of pored lateral-line scales, pectoral-fin rays, snout length, anterior three dorsal-fin spine lengths, ...

The Pacific-Asia Biodiversity Transect (PABITRA) studies are based on a network of high-island biodiversity sites. These sites are structurally and historically complex. The majority of Pacific islands, in contrast, are low atolls with a common and simple flora and structure. As a result, atolls may serve as ‘‘controls’’ that may provide a way to assess impact of the upland high-island ecosyste...
