High Availability, Scalable Storage, Dynamic Peer Networks: Pick Two

by Charles Blake, Rodrigo Rodrigues
"... Peer-to-peer storage aims to build large-scale, reliable and available storage from many small-scale unreliable, low-availability distributed hosts. Data redundancy is the key to any data guarantees. However, preserving redundancy in the face of highly dynamic membership is costly. We apply a simple ..."

simple resource usage model to measured behavior from the Gnutella file-sharing network to argue that large-scale cooperative storage is limited by likely dynamics and cross-system bandwidth --- not by local disk space. We examine some bandwidth optimization strategies like delayed response to failures

Where Apes and Songbirds Are Left Behind: A Comparative Assessment of the Requisites for Speech

by Erin N. Colbert-white, Michael C. Corballis, Dorothy M. Fragaszy
"... A handful of mammalian and avian species can imitate speech (i.e., sounds perceived by humans as those comprising the human communication system of language). Of those species, even fewer are capable of using speech to communicate. While there has been no empirical comparison of nonhuman speech user ..."

in apes and songbirds. Specifically, apes, unlike songbirds, parrots, and humans, are not considered vocal learners and do not have sufficient respiratory control to support a speech stream, while parrots, humans, and apes demonstrate complex affiliative social behavior. Along with the above anatomical

Evidence for Maternal Behavior as a Requisite Link in Suckling-Mediated Anovulation in Cows'

by P. A. Silveira, R. A. Spoon, D. P. Ryan, G. L. Williams
"... Some component of the suckling process inhibits LH secretion and delays postpartum ovulation in beef cows. To investigate a possible role for maternal behavior in suckling-mediated anovulation, 27 crossbred beef cows were randomly allotted to 1 of 3 groups: 1) alien (dam suckled by alien calf; n = 1 ..."

Examining the impacts of residential self-selection on travel behavior: a focus on methodologies

by Xinyu (jason Cao, Patricia L. Mokhtarian*, Susan L. Handy - Transportation Research Part B: Methodological , 2008
"... ABSTRACT Numerous studies have found that suburban residents drive more and walk less than residents in traditional neighbourhoods. What is less well understood is the extent to which the observed patterns of travel behaviour can be attributed to the residential built environment (BE) itself, as opp ..."

, the practical importance of that influence was seldom assessed. Although time and resource limitations are recognized, we recommend usage of longitudinal structural equations modelling with control groups, a design which is strong with respect to all causality requisites.

Computational Organization Theory

by Kathleen Carley , 1994
"... Throughout the history of organization theory there has been an implicit goal of developing an understanding of organizations in terms of the situated action of the agents within them and the position of the organization itself in the larger environment. Weber (1922,1968) sought to understand organi ..."

into and to be tested against historical data. The task was critical, not just due to goal setting, but also because it affected issues such as requisite skills, timing, level of training, number of personnel, and so forth. Cyert and March’s A Behavioral Theory of the Firm (1963) arose out of this early work

Establishing Supervisimg Behaviors in Eighth Graders and Peer-Tutoring Behaviors in First Graders.

by Drs Price, Leonard A. Frasure, Leonard A. Jason, Susan Prasure , 1979
"... Cross-age and,peer-tatoring projects are innovative approaches which both harness untapped school resoOrces and provide opportunities for children to help one another. In order to isplement effective tutoring programs, there is a need to delineate precise,.tutoring.beitaviors employed, as well as th ..."

Artificial fluid properties for large-eddy simulation of compressible turbulent mixing.

by A W Cook , Andrew W Cook - Phys. Fluids, , 2007
"... Abstract An alternative methodology is described for Large-Eddy Simulation of flows involving shocks, turbulence and mixing. In lieu of filtering the governing equations, it is postulated that the large-scale behavior of an "LES" fluid, i.e., a fluid with artificial properties, will be si ..."

high wavenumber modes, close to the resolution limit, without corrupting lower modes. Requisite behavior of the artificial properties is discussed and results are shown for a variety of test problems, each designed to exercise different aspects of the models. When combined with a 10th-order compact

Stealth Navigation: Planning and Behaviors

by Srinivas Ravela, Richard Weiss, Bruce Draper, Brian Pinette Allen Hanson, Allen Hanson, Edward Riseman - Proceedings of ARPA Image Understanding Workshop , 1994
"... Stealth navigation is a fundamental capability for a scout vehicle to effectively perform reconnaissance missions. One component of stealth is the ability to plan paths that minimize visibility of the vehicle from target locations. This paper demonstrates a stealth planning system using visibility a ..."

terrain features in the image space are identified as important pre-requisites for visual stealth behaviors. A method is described to track an important terrain feature in imagespace namely, horizon curves.

Recovering from Errors during Programming by Demonstration

by Jiun-hung Chen, Daniel S. Weld
"... Many end-users wish to customize their applications, automating common tasks and routines. Unfortunately, this automation is difficult today — users must choose between brittle macros and complex scripting languages. Programming by demonstration (PBD) offers a middle ground, allowing users to demons ..."

Unfortunately, many PBD systems are almost as brittle as macro recorders, offering few ways for a user to control the learning process or correct the demonstrations used as training examples.
