This paper presents a throughput-driven scheduling algorithm (TDSA). The algorithm adopts the throughput of cluster back-ends to evaluate their load and employs the neural network model to predict the future load so that the scheduling system features a self-learning capability and good adaptability to the change of load. Moreover, it separates static requests from dynamic requests to make full use of the CPU resources and takes the locality of requests into account to improve the cache hit ratio. Experimental re suits from the testing tool of WebBench^TM show better per formance for Web cluster server with TDSA than that with traditional scheduling algorithms.展开更多

Although RIO can generally provide bandwidth guarantees, its queuing delay is sensitive to the traffic load. This paper presents a qualitative explanation for its origin. As a solution, an Adaptive RIO for Delay (ARIO-D) is proposed to provide guaranteed delay for multimedia traffic. Simulation results show that by trading loss for delay, ARIO-D can effectively improve the robustness of RIO under different and dynamic traffic, and provide stable and differentiated performance of queuing delay without any degradation in performance of throughput.展开更多

Payments are equally distributed among forest owners, and the governmental agencies that make payments to beneficiaries do not evaluate the amount of environmental services produced by forested areas. This lack of evaluation could lead to economic and environmental deficiencies that restrict the possible benefits of such programmes. In general, these programmes do not achieve their conservation objectives, and local beneficiaries are not involved in the design or application of these programmes. Similarly, the Payments for Hydrological Environmental Services(PHES) programme of the State of Mexico, Mexico, makes equal payments to beneficiaries of forested areas considering tree density. The objective of the present work was to create a methodology for determining differentiated payments schemes for hydrological environmental services, prioritising areas that contribute the most to groundwater recharge and promote the participation of society. In the Nevado de Toluca Natural Protected Area, the environmental criteria of forest type, tree density and aquifer overexploitation as well as social participation were considered in a multi-criteria analysis implemented in a Geographic Information System. A methodology was developed to determine differentiated payments based on specific forest characteristics that influence the potential capacity of forests to recharge groundwater reserves in addition to the level of social participation. In particular, social participation is key as it could ensure the viability of PHES programmes as conservation alternatives in forested areas with high groundwater recharge potential.展开更多

The traffic associated with assured forwarding (AF)Per-Hop behavior (PHB) in differentiated services enabled IP network was modeled. Furthermore, theeffect of such traffic on network resources with die objective of developing efficient trafficengineering methodologies was analyzed and the optimization problem relating to traffic engineeringin DS networks with an MPLS core was formulated. The service received by TCP and UDP flows when theyshare either a link or a MPLS traffic trunk was also compared and found that in order to benefitfrom traffic engineering, MPLS trunks should be implemented end-end (first router to last router).If some part of the network is MPLS trunk-unaware, the benefits are reduced or eliminated.展开更多
