Wide-area Internet traffic patterns and characteristics
- IEEE NETWORK
, 1997
"... The Internet is rapidly growing in number of users, traffic levels, and topological complexity. At the same time it is increasingly driven by economic competition. These developments render the characterization of network usage and workloads more difficult, and yet more critical. Few recent studies ..."

) in the presence of up to 240,000 flows. We reveal the characteristics of the traffic in terms of packet sizes, flow duration, volume, and percentage composition by protocol and application, as well as patterns seen over the two time scales.
N Degrees of Separation: Multi-Dimensional Separation of Concerns
- IN PROCEEDINGS OF THE INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON SOFTWARE ENGINEERING
, 1999
"... Done well, separation of concerns can provide many software engineering benefits, including reduced complexity, improved reusability, and simpler evolution. The choice of boundaries for separate concerns depends on both requirements on the system and on the kind(s) of decompositionand composition a ..."

given formalism supports. The predominant methodologies and formalisms available, however, support only orthogonal separations of concerns, along single dimensions of composition and decomposition. These characteristics lead to a number of well-known and difficult problems. This paper describes a new
Compositional Characteristics of Disordered Regions in Proteins
"... Many high resolution protein structures derived from crystallographic studies contain regions in which the temperature factor (or B-factor, a measure related inversely to occupancy) is large. These regions can have low occupancy for two (not mutually exclusive) reasons; either there is motion within ..."

, we have investigated the characteristics of high B-factor regions within otherwise well-resolved protein structures. Most noteworthy, we have shown that amino acids LYS, SER, GLN, ALA, GLU, PRO, ASN, ASP and ARG occur more frequently in disordered regions, that 40% of disordered residues are in coil
Predicting memorization efficiency through compositional characteristics
, 1184
"... The purpose of this study was to explore the effects of com-positional characteristics on memorization efficiency. Fourteen research studies investigating musical memoriza-tion provided efficiency data and sufficient information to collect the notation for memorized excerpts (N = 56). Com-positional ..."

Cluj-Napoca Compositional Characteristics of Fruits of several Apple
"... Fifteen apple cultivars grown in Valcea Research Station, Romania were evaluated in terms of fruit quality. Some selected compositional characteristics such as dry matter, total soluble solids, total sugar, titratable acidity, malic, citric and ascorbic acids and minerals content were investigated. ..."

HYSTERECTOMY IS ASSOCIATED WITH POSTMENOPAUSAL BODY COMPOSITION CHARACTERISTICS
"... Summary. The impact of hysterectomy without oophorectomy and with no malignant purpose on body composition and postmenopausal weight gain was tested in 184 Viennese females aged between 47 and 57 years (mean 52·9). Hysterectomized women were significantly heavier than those who experienced a spontan ..."

PURPOSE: The purpose of this research was to describe and quantify biologically labile and refractory phosphorus runoff in Eight-Mile Run, a small watershed in west-central Wisconsin that is impacted by dairy livestock management. BACKGROUND: There is a need to manage eutrophication problems in Corps of Engineers receiving waters by reducing losses of soils and associated soluble nutrients (primarily phosphorus) in intensively managed agricultural land-use settings that are hydrologically sensitive to runoff. In many agricultural watersheds, livestock is contained in relatively small areas for long periods of time, leading to overgrazing and loss of perennial cover, disruption of the soil surface, and the buildup of nutrients in the soil via manure incorporation that can become a source to receiving waters during runoff events. Bank erosion and decimation of adjacent buffer strips by livestock that is allowed to forage along tributaries can further exacerbate soil and nutrient erosion and runoff. To forecast the impacts of watershed rehabilitation and Best Management Practices (BMPs) on hydraulic and nutrient loadings, models need to be refined to address the impacts of various land-use practices such as livestock production and management on concentrations and loads of sediment and important nutrients like nitrogen and phosphorus in rivers and streams draining watersheds.
Peer Effects in the Classroom: Learning from Gender and Race Variation
, 2000

Peer effects are potentially important for understanding the optimal organization of schools, jobs, and neighborhoods, but finding evidence is difficult because people are selected into peer groups based, in part, on their unobservable characteristics. I identify the effects of peers whom a child en ..."
