The cloud technologies are gaining boom in the field of information technology. But on the same side cloud computing sometimes results in failures. These failures demand more reliable frameworks with high availability of computers acting as nodes. The request made by the user is replicated and sent to various VMs. If one of the VMs fail, the other can respond to increase the reliability. A lot of research has been done and being carried out to suggest various schemes for fault tolerance thus increasing the reliability. Earlier schemes focus on only one way of dealing with faults but the scheme proposed by the the author in this paper presents an adaptive scheme that deals with the issues related to fault tolerance in various cloud infrastructure. The projected scheme uses adaptive behavior during the selection of replication and fine-grained checkpointing methods for attaining a reliable cloud infrastructure that can handle different client requirements. In addition to it the algorithm also determines the best suited fault tolerance method for every designated virtual node. Zheng, Zhou,. Lyu and I. King (2012).

Cloud Computing is an essential podium for workable and impracticable users. It achieves high quality reliable services provided to the users via data storage servers. The key challenge in cloud architecture is to run the facilities without any hazel to the users. In today’s world of information technology, most of the applications are real time. The major constraint of the systems used in real time applications is that, they are prone to failure. The failure may be due to the following reasons: a) Failure to complete the task in prescribed time threshold value. b) Failure to achieve prescribed reliability value. Virtualization and Internet-based Cloud computing causes diverse types of failures to occur and so necessity for reliability and availability have turn out to be of vital concern. To ensure reliability and availability of cloud technologies, methods for fault tolerance need to be developed and deployed. The proposed work will focus on adaptive behavior during the assortment of replication and fine-grained check pointing methods for achieving a reliable cloud platform that can grip diverse client requests. In addition to this, the proposed work will also conclude the best suitable fault tolerance scheme to each chosen virtual machine.


Since cloud computing has numerous benefits and demands, it is much efficient performing real time computing in cloud infrastructure. This real time system takes benefits of scalable virtualized environment and intensive cloud computing capabilities for executing real time tasks. Most of the real time applications undergone its processing stage on remote cloud computing nodes. Here chances of error occurrence is also higher due to undecided latency. And it is necessary that the safety critical applications should have higher reliability. To determine whether the fault tolerance mechanism is having the higher reliability and availability or not. This paper proposes an efficient adaptive fault tolerance mechanism through reliability assessment architecture to enhance the reliability of the system. The decision mechanism is also proposed in this scheme to improve the efficiency a bit higher than normal scheme. At last the fine grained check point algorithm is utilized for reducing the latency. Thus from the analysis of the data it is proved that the execution time of proposed method hikes when compared to other conventional schemes.

The first question to be answered, in seeking coordinate systems for geodynamics, is: what is geodynamics? The answer is, of course, that geodynamics is that part of geophysics which is concerned with movements of the Earth, as opposed to geostatics which is the physics of the stationary Earth. But as far as we know, there is no stationary Earth – epur sic monere. So geodynamics is actually coextensive with geophysics, and coordinate systems suitable for the one should be suitable for the other. At the present time, there are not many coordinate systems, if any, that can be identified with a static Earth. Certainly the only coordinate of aeronomic (atmospheric) interest is the height, and this is usually either as geodynamic height or as pressure. In oceanology, the most important coordinate is depth, and this, like heights in the atmosphere, is expressed as metric depth from mean sea level, as geodynamic depth, or as pressure. Only for the earth do we find “static” systems in use, ana even here there is real question as to whether the systems are dynamic or static. So it would seem that our answer to the question, of what kind, of coordinate systems are we seeking, must be that we are looking for the same systems as are used in geophysics, and these systems are dynamic in nature already – that is, their definition involvestime.

The purposeof this studyis to describe the morphological and         Syntactic interference contained in a collection of short stories Biarkan Aku Memulai work Nurul F. Huda. Sociolinguistics is the study of language variation and use in society. Interference is the event of the use of language elements of one into the other language elements that occur in the speakers themselves. This research uses descriptive qualitative method because to describe the actual realityin order to obtainan accurateand objective. Qualitative descriptive methods were used to analyzethe elements ofa word orphrase that incorporated elements of other languages with the analysis and description of the formulation of the problem is the answer. Data collection techniques using observation techniques, the determination ofthe object of research, the selection of short stories.Based on the analysis of the data in this study can be found that there are six forms of interference morphology, namely (1) the prefix nasal N-sound, (2) the addition of the suffix, (3) the exchange prefix, (4) exchange suffixes, (5) exchange konfiks, (6) removal affixes. While the syntactic interference only on the words and phrases in a sentence. The results of the study it can be concluded that the interference morphology more common than syntactic interference.

This chapter presents a model of the interaction of media outlets, politicians, and the public with an emphasis on the tension between truth-seeking and narratives that confirm partisan identities. This model is used to describe the emergence and mechanics of an insular media ecosystem and how two fundamentally different media ecosystems can coexist. In one, false narratives that reinforce partisan identity not only flourish, but crowd-out true narratives even when these are presented by leading insiders. In the other, false narratives are tested, confronted, and contained by diverse outlets and actors operating in a truth-oriented norms dynamic. Two case studies are analyzed: the first focuses on false reporting on a selection of television networks; the second looks at parallel but politically divergent false rumors—an allegation that Donald Trump raped a 13-yearold and allegations tying Hillary Clinton to pedophilia—and tracks the amplification and resistance these stories faced.

AbstractNickel Titanium Naval Ordinance Laboratory (NiTiNOL) is widely called as a shape memory alloy (SMA), a class of nonlinear smart material inherited with the functionally programmed property of varying electrical resistance during the transformation enabling to be positioned as a sensing element. The major challenge to instrument the SMA wires is to suppress the wires’ nonlinearity by proper selection of two important factors. The first factor is influenced by the mechanical biasing element and the other is to identify the sensing current for the sensing device (SMA wires + biasing). This paper focuses on developing SMA wires for sensing in different orientation types and configurations by removing the non-linearity in the system’s output by introducing inverse hysteresis to the wires through the passive mechanical element.

In motor control studies, the 90% thresholding of variance accounted for (VAF) is the classical way of selecting the number of muscle synergies expressed during a motor task. However, the adoption of an arbitrary cut-off has evident drawbacks. The aim of this work is to describe and validate an algorithm for choosing the optimal number of muscle synergies (ChoOSyn), which can overcome the limitations of VAF-based methods. The proposed algorithm is built considering the following principles: (1) muscle synergies should be highly consistent during the various motor task epochs (i.e., remaining stable in time), (2) muscle synergies should constitute a base with low intra-level similarity (i.e., to obtain information-rich synergies, avoiding redundancy). The algorithm performances were evaluated against traditional approaches (threshold-VAF at 90% and 95%, elbow-VAF and plateau-VAF), using both a simulated dataset and a real dataset of 20 subjects. The performance evaluation was carried out by analyzing muscle synergies extracted from surface electromyographic (sEMG) signals collected during walking tasks lasting 5 min. On the simulated dataset, ChoOSyn showed comparable performances compared to VAF-based methods, while, in the real dataset, it clearly outperformed the other methods, in terms of the fraction of correct classifications, mean error (ME), and root mean square error (RMSE). The proposed approach may be beneficial to standardize the selection of the number of muscle synergies between different research laboratories, independent of arbitrary thresholds.

A neutron detector using a fine-grained nuclear emulsion has a sub-micron spatial resolution and thus has potential to be applied as high-resolution neutron imaging. In this paper, we present two approaches to applying the emulsion detectors for neutron imaging. One is using a track analysis to derive the reaction points for high resolution. From an image obtained with a 9 μm pitch Gd grating with cold neutrons, periodic peak with a standard deviation of 1.3 μm was observed. The other is an approach without a track analysis for high-density irradiation. An internal structure of a crystal oscillator chip, with a scale of approximately 30 μm, was able to be observed after an image analysis.

Abstract The interest in morphology and its interaction with the other grammatical components has increased in the last twenty years, with new approaches coming into stage so as to get more accurate analyses of the processes involved in morphological construal. This special issue is a valuable contribution to this field of study. It gathers a selection of five papers from the Morphology and Syntax workshop (University of Girona, July 2017) which, on the basis of Romance and Latin phenomena, discuss word structure and its decomposition into hierarchies of features. Even though the papers share a compositional view of lexical items, they adopt different formal theoretical approaches to the lexicon-syntax interface, thus showing the benefit of bearing in mind the possibilities that each framework provides. This introductory paper serves as a guide for the readers of this special collection and offers an overview of the topics dealt in each contribution.
