Abstract We propose a companion solution to iSCSI that is more suited for virtualization of local computer bus architectures, such as PCI/PCI-X and PCI Express. We explore the architecture of a possible virtualization protocol. The solution would allow extension of the host computer bus via an IP network based on 10Gbps Ethernet. This solution would allow adapter cards to be located remote from host systems via the Internet, yet appear as a local bus resource. We present Quality of Service (QOS) goals for PCI Express virtualization and expansi...

The formation of water soluble vitamins (vitamin B12, vitamin B6, riboflavin, thiamine, nicotinic acid and nicotinamide) during the tempe solid substrate fermentation was investigated. The role of several strains of Rhizopus oligosporus, R. arrhizus, and R. stolonifer and the role of several bacteria in the vitamin formation process were checked. All fungal and bacterial strains were isolated from Indonesian tempe and soaking water samples. The Rhizopus strains formed riboflavin, nicotinic acid, nicotinamide and vitamin B6. The final concentrat...

Abstract A useful performance measure on which to compare manufacturing systems is a quantile of the cycle time distribution. Unfortunately, aside from order statistic estimates, which can require significant data storage, the distribution of quantile estimates has not been shown to be normally distributed, violating a common assumption amongst ranking-and-selection (R&S) procedures. To address this, we provide empirical evidence supporting an approach using the mean of a group of quantile estimates as the comparison measure. The approach is d...

Abstract Service Overlay Network (SON) was proposed to alleviate the difficulties encountered in providing end-to-end Quality of Service (QoS) guarantees. SON is able to provide QoS guarantees by purchasing bandwidth from individual network domains and building a logical end-to-end data delivery infrastructure on top of the existing Internet. We focus on SON topology design problems under a generalized cost model. Earlier research in this topic considered two distinct cost models - fixed (leased) cost model and variable (usage-based) cost mode...

The solar system, Elcam-Tempe, was designed by Elcam Incorporated, Santa Barbara, California, to supply commercial domestic hot water heating systems to the Agriculture Department residence at Arizona State University. The building is a single story residence located at the agriculture experiment farm of the Arizona State University. The energy system's four modes of operation are described. Electrical energy savings at the site was a net of 5.54 million Btu after the 0.17 million Btu of operating energy required to operate collector loop circu...

Abstract Several tests have been used over the years to determine the quality of thin film zinc oxide. These tests have included coupling factor measurement, acoustic and optical loss, surface roughness, and grain size. One such test, which is especially useful when establishing the best ZnO deposition condition, is chemical etching. Chemical etching reveals considerable information about the density of the fiber grain structure, the film orientation, film strain, and can be related to coupling factor. Etching ZnO films or crystals is highly a...

Abstract Preserving a person's privacy in an efficient manner is very important for critical, life-saving infrastructures like body sensor networks (BSN). This paper presents a novel key agreement scheme which allows two sensors in a BSN to agree to a common key generated using electrocardiogram (EKG) signals. This EKG-based key agreement (EKA) scheme aims to bring the "plug-n-play" paradigm to BSN security whereby simply deploying sensors on the subject can enable secure communication, without requiring any form of initialization such as pre-...

Abstract Using a gradient combinatorial approach, the authors report the effects of temperature on the microstructure and hole mobility of poly(2,5-bis(3-dodecylthiophen-2yl)thieno[3,2-b]thiophene) thin films for application in organic field-effect transistors. The gradient heating revealed a detailed dependence on thermal history. Optimal heat treatment achieved mobilities as high as 0.3 cm2 V-1 s-1. Mobility enhancement coincides with an increase in crystal domain size and orientation, all of which occur abruptly at a temperature closely cor...

Abstract Consumer informedness plays a critical role in determining consumer choice. Companies now use hyperdifferentiation and resonance marketing strategies to benefit from the long-tail. We test the theory of consumer informedness in a field experiment. The data are from two stated choice experiments in the pubic transport industry in the Netherlands. The increasing implementation of smart card and mobile technology provides opportunities for service providers to achieve new 'best practices' in revenue management. The results provide eviden...

Abstract We have developed a simulation model based on the solution of the Boltzmann transport equation (BTE) for modeling n-channel silicon-on-insulator (SOI) metal-semiconductor field-effect transistor (MESFETs) using the ensemble Monte Carlo device simulation technique. All relevant scattering mechanisms for the silicon material system have been included in the model. In addition to phonon scattering, to properly describe the operation of the SOI MESFET devices, in our theoretical model we have also included surface or interface-roughness s...
