The Multiwell-Screen software package is designed specifically for the needs of screening experiments with the Multiwell-MEA-System. The software gives you an online overview of the activity on the complete well plate. Moreover, it displays the raw data of one freely selectable well and one freely selectable electrode in real-time. Most importantly, the software helps you to design your experiment, including compound applications and wash-in times and the guides you through the experiment and calculates the corresponding dose-response curves along the way.
In the beginning, you select whether you record from neuronal or cardiac cells, and then have a tool set specialized for your application.
With both tool sets, you can display your data in real-time on the entire well plate, zoom into one single well and see the signal on one single electrode. You can also filter the data (high-pass, low-pass, Butterworth, Notch etc.) and record digital events.
The software gives you the option to input information on the applied compounds and then calculates the corresponding dose-response curves automatically.
Thereby, you can choose if you want to analyze your data for:
Within the same software, you can design the stimulation patterns and decide when and where you want to stimulate.
As a policy at Multi Channel Systems, updates of the Multiwell-Screen software package will be available online and free of charge, so you are always up-to-date with recent developments.
Multiwell-Screen is a dedicated software for sophisticated screening of cultured cardiomyocytes or neurons in 24- or 96-well plates. It is a screening tool for data acquisition, automated signal analysis, and enhanced data processing.
The software allows you to screen your cardiomyocytes for pro-arrhythmic potential or your neurons for network activity and gets you a quick report in real-time after finishing the experiment.
Cardiac myocytes, i.e. primary, iPS-cell-derived or ES-derived cardiomyocytes, can be cultured on Multiwell plates with 24 or 96 wells. The layout of the plates allows for mapping, detection of pro-arrhythmic potential, prolongation of the QT-interval, influence on sodium channel activities, and effects of drugs on general parameters of cardiomyocytes' behavior. An automated algorithm allows you to run completed dose-response curves. You can program wash-out and wash-in phases in the software. Automated options are available, however individual settings are possible.
A dedicated module for neuronal recordings is available. Here, we cover the full range of cultured neurons in a network with up to 12 electrodes in a well with a glass bottom that allows optical monitoring of the cell culture, of the network behavior, and stimulation on every single electrode. Electrodes have a diameter of 30 µm and are made of titanium nitride for perfect signal to noise ratio.
Neuronal recordings on the Multiwell-MEA-System combine the flexibility of an individual MEA recording with the throughput of a highly sophisticated screening system.
One of the most sophisticated features of the Multiwell-Screen software is the automated report generation at the end of the experiment. This reports are up to 200 pages of well-analyzed data. You obtain overlay plots of the signals from various concentrations, dose-response curves with automated fittings of sigmoidal functions, an output of normalized and raw data values for every single electrode in every single well. This is done without any manual interference, fully automated at the end of the experiment.
An export module allows you to export the raw data as a .csv file, compatible with Microsoft Excel into a database for an enhanced managing of all the data recorded from up to 96 wells in parallel.
With the Multiwell-Screen software you can run and control experiments with Multiwell-MEA-Systems.
With the Multiwell-Analyzer software you can load data files recorded with Multiwell-Screen or Cardio2D.
Tool for export of data recorded with MC_Rack, Cardio2D, the Multi Channel Experimenter, CMOS-MEA-Control or Multiwell-Screen.

This study investigates the process of capitalist class formation in the North Atlantic area in the period between the launch of Woodrow Wilson's 'Crusade for Democracy' in 1917 and the world economic crisis of 1974-75. The crisis, from which capitalism so far has found no way out, and which in the absence of a clear revolutionary dynamic has only raised the level of violence in the international system to a point where the threat of nuclear annihilation seems all too real, terminated an era of American hegemony and Atlantic integration. In this era, the specific form and content of the internationalization of capital allowed the bourgeoisie in the North Atlantic area to regroup and develop a series of comprehensive concepts of control by which it could reinforce its hegemonic position both nationally and, in the confrontation with extra-Atlantic challenges, internationally. From either perspective, the dominant feature of the era of Atlantic integration was the supranational framework in which bourgeois class rule was organized and legitimized: Atlantic, European, or various combinations of the two.

Obama Crushes Savage Impression Of Malia And Sasha Texting About Boys
Barack Obama knows the deal.
He knows that Sasha and Malia — probably the two most popular teens in America — are crushing it socially. And because they're crushing it socially, they're sure to have plenty of romantic suitors.
You know what that means? Lots of texts that begin with "girlllllllll."
Actually, Barry O's impersonation is way better. Check out POTUS talking to a whole bunch of high school students and letting them know he's in on how they text.
Yup, that sounds about right.
President Obama had the real-talk moment with the students at Benjamin Banneker Academic High School in Washington, DC, which he visited on Wednesday while highlighting the country's graduation rate rising to an all-time high.
He was late to the stage, though, which prompted this comment:
I know you may have been waiting here awhile. Good thing you all had your phones with you. As the father of two teenage daughters, I know the whole time you were just like, "And then he said… girl, I couldn't believe it."
Obama totally gets it. But, of course, POTUS's coolness only stretches so far. He's 55, mind you, so it wasn't long 'til he had a "back in my day" comment with a bit of low-key shade thrown at the teenagers.
Here was his old geezer moment:
Getting the nerve to text that cute girl or boy in your English class — I don't remember that. We did not have texts. We had to send little notes. And then we used to have to actually go up to somebody if we liked them and talk to them. So, that may happen to you someday.
Get out of here, grandpa!
(Actually, please find a way to stay, and don't leave us with either one of those crazy people. I'm not kidding. This is a very serious cry for help xoxo, bye.)

(this is her dominant personality type)
(she also shows elements of this type)
52 | San Francisco, California
Wanted: A nice sweet friendly outgoing man.
Her 21 interests
in her own words...
Hi! I am a 44-year-old (45 next month, Jan. 2010) native San Franciscan woman wishing to meet a nice, outgoing, friendly, funny and loyal man for a long term relationship. I am attracted to personality first, not looks. Once I find the person's personality attractive, their outside becomes attractive too. I am a very compassionate person who likes helping others. I don't judge others and I don't have a self-aggrandizing mindset. I hold a B.S. in Corporate Finance and have my own bookkeeping and accounting business. I also hold a criminal justice degree. I have a 20-year-daughter who is a junior in college still at home with me. I am an animal lover and have an elderly cat and a 7-lb Maltese doggie. I am a homebody during the evenings and do enjoy the outdoors during the day. I enjoy spending hours in cafe bookstores. I like reading papers and magazines of all sorts--business, political, news and even junk tabloids! LOL!! I am a news junking and hooked on CNN, FOX News, and MSNBC News. I favor Fox News and find the documentaries on CNN very interesting. I like stimulating and interesting conversations and always open to friendly debates. I enjoy listening and learning from other people's beliefs, views, opinions and perspectives on national and world affairs, religions, politics and the ecomomy. I welcome meeting someone with opposite opinions, views, and perpective on things--I don't feel that one necessarily has to have all the same interests and views in order to have a connection with someone. I have recently initiated a change with my lifestyle--I am making excercising and being active a priority in addition to eating healthy. I welcome meeting a person who is overweight who desires to make that change as well. If possible, I'd like to have another child one day, otherwise, better yet, to adopt a child needing a loving home. I have been to Europe a few times, all over Mexico, Aruba and Canada. I would like to travel more and learn more about other cultures and o

Cheryl Cole has been kind enough to share her best beauty secrets with the rest of the world. She says that eyeliner is one of her best secrets ever. She says she never goes without it and feels naked without wearing any. She uses liquid eyeliner on the top lashes, and then finishes with kohl before smudging the look. Cheryl says that you have to play with the look some since not everyone has the same eyes.And she will always take off her makeup at night. And she feels that she has to moisturize her skin. She also said that she likes to make a statement with her makeup but can not believe some of the looks she has worn in the past, such as the white and black eyes in the Sexy! No No No video. Cheryl also says that the red carpet still frightens her. She has had bad dreams about walking out and her dress ripped. Her nails had chipped so she was having someone paint them as the dress was getting sewn. And in the process, she ended up tripping and ripping her dress more with burgendy nail polish all over her dress. She says anyone that says they love walking the red carpet is lying as it is hard to do.

Why is there a controversy about the method in which the president is elected?
2 Answers | Add Yours
There are a number of reasons for this, and so I am not really sure which you are talking about. I think that the most likely answer here is that the controversy has to do with the Electoral College. The Electoral College is controversial because a candidate can (like Pres. Bush in 2000) be elected even if he does not win the popular vote.
Although this is very rare, it is possible for the system to work in this way. This causes controversy because it seems antidemocratic, even though it is perfectly legal.
Please follow the link for more details about the 2000 election.
The Electoral College does not allow voters to directly elect the president of the U.S. Each state has electors who actually elect the president. These electors usually follow the voters within their respective states, but they are not bound to do so. The Electoral College was originally established by our founding fathers because they did not feel the people of the U.S. were qualified to directly elect the president. At that time, only the wealthy were educated, and newspapers were local rather than national. Electors would be chosen from the educated elite because they would know the candidates and issues better than the general population.Today, many people feel the Electoral College is outdated because we are more educated and have knowledge available to us through the various media.
In the 2000 election between George W. Bush and Al Gore, Gore won the popular vote, but Bush received more electoral votes. The election was decided in Florida where Bush's brother was governor. Many feel this election was unfairly decided and showed that the Electoral College is truly outdated.

Factors To Take Into Account When Choosing Household Furniture On The Internet
Think about fabric, perform as well as type when picking household

Of course, the particular floor area is conserved wide along with open. However the place doesn't seem larger or maybe more appealing. It isn't very approving for conversation or perhaps drawing nearer for some sort of chat. The actual best suites are certainly not static bins. They contain furnishings that will could always be pulled upwards, dragged around or perhaps compiled around. In this article are several tips to think about when selecting
furniture online
Experts say that fluid seats is actually key. Individuals love swiveling chairs in which may confront a couch, the tv set or the actual outdoors. Other most favorite are benches and bar stools that could be shifted all over to generate further seating or even help personal conversations. Fluid pieces present a place versatility - that's precisely why people enjoy them therefore much. Every lifestyle room provides a key point.

HEYOO! I thought this chap was great! I squeal at astrid and leon! they're so adorable! But GASP! the suicides were murders! what a twist Ms. Author! im liking this arc very much and cant wait to see everything unfold. Who knew haru would seek residence at hollow mill? I feel very suspicious towards Ms. davenport. she's sketchy. I love your story! ive actually been following it since the 11th or 12th chapter but I don't have an account :( oh well I don't care just know that there are anonymous people who read your story! :D don't worry about the slow updates seeing as you have every reason to since life is very hectic, as long as you don't make us wait a year then we'll be best buds! Congratulations on getting to good colleges! Even though its not what you wanted since 9th grade life goes on and there will always be new opportunities. Don't be afraid on dreaming high, doing so might give you some disappointment and failures but will give you something better then you wished for in return. its life. GET OVER YOURSELF! hey don't blame me, you told me to say that ;) well sorry for the long and messy message but meh. hope your life gets better! the struggles will pay off! don't worry! looking forward to the so called breakthrough you've made, see ya!

I'm sorry your having a rough time in life, and I kinda know how you feel- with the not wanting to do anything, and all. But Lol you've brought this on yourself by writing such an amazing story and almost always, ALWAYS leaving a mystery as a cliffhanger!
Like bruh... Really?
Anyways, love the chapter (like always) and hang in there. Summer is near!

Ha..hahaha..ha... I HAVEN'T MADE A REVIEW FOR SO LONG! I'm back and I've read and oh the feels. Chapter 51 was brilliant, I love the ending! I would've never thought that would happen, but it totally made sense now that I think about it. Hollow mill would be great for Haru, and Astrid could totally -put some sense into that girl. I also love Jiro's reaction- to everything haha. And oh my, and the guidance counselor. She might be evil, but I like her so much already. I really missed this story, but I'm here again and still loving it! Good work! And take your time :) School sucks in short but you know what? You'll overcome it. You'll graduate and you'll be writing and I'll be seeing awesome stuff that I always see in your story. I'm always an open ear here...

WOW. Just wow. I love this chapter! But, why must you end it with that?! Aaarrrggghh! You are such a good writer and i can actually see this getting published. The way you portray the characters' feelings and their development through your writinf is AMAZING. I Dayum i wish i could write like you!
| PencilsCameras chapter 49 . 1/2/2015
I think I just might have to put a follow on this story. First I gotta log in, though.
I like how Astrid is opening up more, and how their relationship is slowly taking off. Your home life isn't really prevalent in it-not much, anyway. Oh yeah, and how long were you planning on making this story? When I discovered it a month or two ago, I read the whole thing, and have been patiently waiting for another chapter since then, but if you make it too long, then nobody will read it. Well, fewer people, anyway. Basically, I just wanted to say that this is the best and most unusual story up here that I've read (And I've read alot!)

Deadmau5's "Professional Griefers": "Highest-Budget EDM Video of All Time"
Joel "Deadmau5" Zimmerman is a go-big-or-go-home kind of guy.
When he opens his mouth, he's not going to sugar-coat his opinion. And when he opens his wallet, he'll spare no expense to provide fans with the ultimate audio-visual experience.
That's why he didn't hesitate to drop a guap on his new "Professional Griefers" video, featuring My Chemical Romance's Gerard Way.
"Not to be all Kanye on you," the Mau5 told Rolling Stone, "but this is one of the highest-budget electronic music videos of all time."
The loud and proud button-pusher wouldn't give an exact figure. But he did admit to throwing seven digits at this thing. And it shows.

"Griefers" is a slick, highly professional, computer-enhanced clip starring the DJ and his singing friend. They battle it out in the Thunderdome of robot rodent wars. The King Rat even got UFC to throw their brand on the spectacle.
The giant, hulking Mau5 machines go at it till the brutal end as the whole world watches from shitty trailers and expensive penthouses. One spectating couple can't help themselves from getting naked, and it all comes down to blows in the cage. Meanwhile, some adorable little robo-dog ruins everything.
It's definitely a fun clip, but we'll have to wait and see if "Griefers" wins any awards. If it doesn't, we sooo hope Deadmau5 storms the stage. Maybe he'll let you finish.

The present invention relates generally to performance and capacity planning of the high volume Web servers, and more particularly to a method and system of an autonomic computing algorithm to identify optimum configuration for Web infrastructures.
As e-business and its related requirements grow at "Web speed", a critical issue is whether the IT infrastructure supporting the Web sites has what it needs to provide available, scalable, fast, and efficient access to the company's information, products, and services. More than ever, CIOs (Chief Information Officers) and their teams struggle with the challenges to minimize downtime and network bottlenecks and maximize the use of the hardware and software that comprises their e-business infrastructure.
The task of planning for optimum configuration for large Web servers has become ever challenging. This is because the hardware and software structure of large Web sites are getting increasingly complex, and the characteristics of the associated workloads are at best poorly understood, or at worst, essentially unknown because the workload has yet to be implemented.
Even with this growing complexity, typical IT infrastructures can be analyzed and related models (i.e. simulators) can be developed to assist in predicting and planning how to meet future requirements. However, the results are not satisfactory. The predictions can become somewhat complex when, as is often the case, there are many different hardware and software configurations that must be tried, and there are number of performance criteria that must all be simultaneously met, while at the same time maximizing system throughput or the number of concurrent users supported by the system.
Capacity planning and performance modeling of complex computer systems generally require detailed information about the workload assumed to be running on those systems. For detailed performance studies of processors, a trace of the workload is typically used. This combined with the right model and right configuration of the processor hardware can be used to estimate the performance and capacity of a given workload with a specific performance objectives.
An intractable task in a multi-tier Web server's performance and capacity planning is to identify an optimal hardware configuration that can achieve the performance objectives of a given workload. This task has become more complex by proliferation of many different hardware and architectural options available today. The following requirements (i.e. parameters) have to be typically addressed in determining the proper hardware configuration:
To identify an optimal hardware configuration, the above-mentioned requirements (i.e. parameters) have to be typically addressed concurrently. As a result, the user is often required to find a best-fit solution by a trial and error method. This requires adjusting the parameters and running the model (i.e. simulator) several times before finding a solution. The number of model runs depends on the starting point (i.e. arbitrary initial parameter specification) and the result is not guaranteed to be the best-fit solution.
What is needed is an algorithm, which takes all the above requirements and complexities into the consideration, eliminates trial and error methods, and relieves the user from making multiple model runs; and by which various performance simulators can identify an optimum hardware configuration that can achieve the performance objectives of a given workload in an efficient and cost effective manner.
The present invention discloses a method, system and article of manufacture for autonomic identification of an optimum hardware configuration for a Web infrastructure. This is accomplished by first establishing a plurality of performance objectives and a plurality of best practice rules for the Web infrastructure. A search space and a current configuration performance index within the search space are established next. A database of available hardware models is searched for a best-fit configuration based on the established plurality of best practice rules and the established current configuration performance index. The performance data of the found best-fit configuration is calculated using a performance simulator and then compared to the established plurality of performance objectives. If the calculated performance data meet the established plurality of performance objectives, then the best-fit configuration is designated as the optimum hardware configuration. Otherwise, the search space is narrowed and searching is continued until such optimum hardware configuration is found.
In the present invention, the plurality of performance objectives comprises system throughput objective, response time objective, resource utilization objective, and number of concurrent users objective. The plurality of best practice rules comprises SMP Size Rules, and Vertical vs. Horizontal Solution Rules. The search space comprises a lower limit and an upper limit for performance index of the optimum hardware configuration. The database of available hardware models comprises a plurality of hardware brands, a plurality of hardware models within each of the plurality of hardware brands, and a relative performance index for each of the plurality of hardware models. The best-fit configuration conforms to the established plurality of best practice rules and has a performance index within a delta range of said established current configuration performance index. The current configuration performance index is established by taking the average of said lower limit and said upper limit of said search space.
In another embodiment of the present invention, the above-described autonomic optimum hardware configuration method may be provided as a computer system. The present invention may also be provided as an article of manufacture comprising a program storage device readable by a computer system and tangibly embodying one or more programs of instructions executable by the computer system to perform the above-described autonomic identification of an optimum hardware configuration method steps.
The present invention may be embodied in a utility program such as an autonomic hardware configuration utility program. The present invention also provides means for the user to identify an optimum hardware configuration for a Web infrastructure by first specifying a set of requirements for the Web infrastructure and then invoking the autonomic hardware configuration utility to search and find such configuration. The set of requirements comprises a workload type, a plurality of performance objectives, a Web infrastructure type, a hardware type and a desired system cluster structure.
The present invention will become more apparent to those of ordinary skill in the art after considering the preferred embodiments described herein with reference to the attached drawings in which like reference numbers represent corresponding elements throughout:
In the following description of the preferred embodiment, reference is made to the accompanying drawings which form a part thereof, and which is shown by way of illustration a specific embodiment in which the present invention may be practiced. It is to be understood that other embodiments may be utilized as structural changes may be made without departing from the scope of the present invention.
Hardware Environment
The clients 101 are devices that serve as the interface to the user. For example, the clients comprise a personal computer running a web browser, or a wireless device for mobile users. The type of client determines the delay associated with the client software operations for sending and receiving requests to the web server 107.
The network 103, for example the Internet, is modeled as a generic delay associated with transferring data between the web server 107 and the client 101. Specific queuing delays along the network 103, and the effects of caching and content serving within the network 103 are not modeled.
The edge server 105 is typically a special purpose server acting as an interface between the network 103 and the rest of the web server 107. It can be implemented as a single server or multiple servers acting in parallel. The edge server 105 may implement any or all of the following functions: Firewall—which implements security features, Network Dispatcher—which routes incoming requests to multiple server nodes in the next tier, and Content Caching—which holds cached copies of common content files (e.g. html, jpeg, etc.) and supplies them directly to clients 101 without interacting with the rest of the web server 107.
The web presentation servers (i.e. HTTP servers) 109 respond to http requests from clients 101 and either supply static content if available, or pass the request on to the next tier. The presentation servers 109 are typically (but not necessarily) implemented as a number of small servers operating in parallel.
The web application servers 111 provide integration business logic needed to execute the actual web application. The web application servers 111 are typically (but not necessarily) implemented as a number of small to medium servers operating in parallel.
The database servers 113 are used to process database transactions requiring a high level of reliability, such as financial transactions. The database servers 113 are typically (but not necessarily) implemented as a single large SMP (Symmetric Multi Processor) server. A second SMP server is often configured as a standby backup server.
Those of ordinary skill in the art will recognize that present invention is not limited to the web server configuration described above. For example, the three-tier web server of the exemplary environment may be combined into a two-tier or a single-tier structure. In a two-tier structure, the presentation and application tiers are implemented on a single web server, and the database server is implemented on a physically separate server.
Those of ordinary skill in the art will further recognize that the computer system of the present invention may be comprised of a computer with one or more computer processors, one or more external storage devices, output devices such as a computer display monitor and a printer, a textual input device such as a computer keyboard, a graphical input device such as a mouse, and a memory unit. The computer system of the present invention may be a network of interacting computer devices connected to several other computer systems through various network protocols. The computer processor is connected to the external storage device, the display monitor, the printer, the keyboard, the mouse, and the memory unit. The external storage device and the memory unit may be used for the storage of data and computer program code. The external storage device may be a fixed or hard disk drive, a floppy disk drive, a CDROM drive, a tape drive, or other device locally or remotely (e.g. via Internet) connected. The functions of the present invention are performed by the computer processor executing computer program codes, which is stored in the memory unit or the external storage device. The computer system may suitably be any one of the types that are well known in the art such as a mainframe computer, a minicomputer, a workstation, or a personal computer. The computer system may run any of a number of well known computer operating systems including IBM OS/390�, IBM AS/400�, IBM OS/2�, Microsoft Windows NT�, Microsoft Windows 2000�, and many variations of OSF UNIX.
Referring now to
In step 206, the performance objectives are selected. The user selects various desired performance objectives such as throughput, response time, number of concurrent users, etc. for his/her business needs. One or more performance objectives may be selected. When more than one objective is selected, those objectives should all be met simultaneously.
In step 208, a Web infrastructure for the selected workload is defined. Based on the business requirements of the user such as scalability, security, system management, etc., a single tier, or a multi-tier Web infrastructure as described earlier may be defined.
At step 210, a decision is made regarding the autonomic selection of a suitable hardware configuration. If the user does not prefer an autonomic selection, he/she may select his/her own hardware configuration in step 214 and estimate the performance of the selected hardware configuration in step 216. Otherwise, in step 212, the user may let the autonomic algorithm of the present invention to search for a best-fit hardware configuration and estimate the performance of the hardware configuration found. In either case, estimation for various performance parameters such as system throughput, response times, resource utilization, etc. is provided. The time spent in the system is determined and the system components where bottleneck may occur are identified. The details of the autonomic algorithm of the present invention are described later in this specification illustrated by
At step 218, the hardware performance estimates and the potential bottlenecks are analyzed. Other criteria such as cost, physical size and availability of the hardware models required by the hardware configuration found may also be considered at this step. At step 220, if the results are acceptable to the user, the modeling process ends with an optimum hardware configuration obtained. Otherwise, the process may be repeated starting at step 206.
Those of ordinary skill in the art will recognize that present invention is not limited to the performance modeling process described above. Other performance modeling processes or techniques may employ the same autonomic algorithm of the present invention to identify the optimum hardware configuration needed to achieve a given set of performance objectives.
Referring now to
In step 302, the autonomic algorithm parameters are initialized as follows:
CurrConfig=(MaxNumNodes, LargestPerfIndexModelName);
PrevConfig=(0, Null);
MaxPerfIndex=maximum possible performance index (i.e. the upper limit of the search space).
MaxNumNodes=maximum number of nodes in any configuration.
LargestPerfIndex=largest performance index among all models within a brand.
MinPerfIndex=minimum possible performance index (i.e. the lower limit of the search space).
CurrConfig=current hardware configuration.
LargestPerfIndexModelName=hardware model name of the largest performance index.
PrevConfig=previous hardware configuration.
CurrConfigPerfIndex=performance index of the current hardware configuration.
Each hardware type (i.e. a hardware model within a hardware brand such as IBM pSeries, IBM xSeries, IBM zSeries, Sun, etc.) has an assigned relative performance index. The relative performance indexes are established based on a combination of extensive measurement techniques and modeling applications. In general, the respective vendors publish these relative performance indexes when a particular hardware model becomes available. The relative performance indexes are used to compare the performance of different hardware models within each brand. Additional measurements are done to establish proprietary relationships between different brands. As a result, relative performance indexes of different brands may also be compared to each other. A database of all possible hardware models with their names and relative performance indexes is created and periodically updated to include new and upgraded hardware models.
The maximum possible performance index (MaxPerfIndex) is initialized to the product of the maximum number of nodes (i.e. hardware models) in any given configuration (MaxNumNodes), for example 256, and the largest performance index among all models within a brand (LargestPerfIndex). The minimum possible performance index (MinPerfIndex) is initialized to zero. The space between the maximum possible performance index and the minimum possible performance index is the search space for optimum hardware configuration.
The current hardware configuration (CurrConfig) is set to a cluster comprising maximum number of nodes (i.e. the hardware model) with the largest performance index (MaxNumNodes, LargestPerfIndexModelName). The previous hardware configuration (PrevConfig) is initialized to a null hardware configuration (0, Null). The current hardware configuration performance index (CurrConfigPerfIndex) is initialized to the maximum possible performance index (MaxPerfIndex).
In step 304, using a performance simulator model, the performance measurements of the current hardware configuration (CurrConfig) are calculated. The calculated performance measurements are then compared to the performance objectives of the user workload, in step 306. If the user performance objectives are not met, the current configuration performance index (CurrCongfigPerfIndex) is compared to the maximum possible performance index (MaxPerfIndex) at step 308. If the current configuration performance index is same as the maximum possible performance, then there is no optimum solution for meeting the selected performance objectives of the user. Otherwise, the algorithm proceeds to step 312 where the lower limit of the search space is determined by setting the minimum performance index (MinPerfIndex) to the current configuration performance index (CurrConfigPerfIndex).
If, in step 306, the performance objectives of the user are met by the current configuration, the current configuration (CurrConfig) is compared to the previous configuration (PrevConfig) at step 310. If the current configuration is same as the previous configuration, then an optimum configuration for meeting the selected performance objectives of the user is found. Otherwise, the algorithm proceeds to step 314 where the upper limit of the search space is determined by setting the maximum performance index (MaxPerfIndex) to the current configuration performance index (CurrConfigPerfIndex).
At step 316, the current configuration (CurrConfig) is saved as previous configuration (PrevConfig) and a new value for the current configuration performance index (CurrConfigPerfIndex) is set to the average of the maximum performance index (MaxPerfIndex) and the minimum performance index (MinPerfIndex) at step 318. A new search is then conducted within the newly established search space at step 320, which is described later in this specification using
At step 322, the current configuration (CurrConfig) is set to the search result configuration (ResultConfig) of the step 320 and the current configuration performance index (CurrConfigPerfIndex) is calculated by multiplying the number of nodes (NumNodes) in the search result configuration to the performance index of the model (ModelPerfIndex) in the search result configuration. The algorithm is then reiterated at step 304.
Those of ordinary skill in the art will recognize that other calculation methodologies and different order of calculations may be adopted in place of the above-described calculations. The search space could iteratively be narrowed or divided into smaller ranges using other methods or techniques until exhausted.
Referring now to
In step 402, for each hardware model within a hardware brand, a cluster configuration is formed as follows:
NumNodes=QUOTIENT (CurrConfigPerfIndex, ModelPerfIndex)
ClusterConfig=(NumNodes, ModelName)
NumNodes is the number of nodes in a cluster with a collective performance index of at least the performance index of the current configuration. NumNodes is same as the QUOTIENT of the current configuration performance index (CurrConfigPerfIndex) and the model performance index (ModelPerfIndex). The QUOTIENT of (a, b) is obtained by dividing (a) by (b) and taking the integer part of the result.
ClusterConfig is a cluster configuration comprising a number of a particular hardware model. The number of nodes in the cluster is same as the NumNodes.
ClusterConfigPerfIndex is the performance index of the cluster configuration. Its value is the product of the number of nodes in the cluster (NumNodes) and the performance index of the hardware model (ModelPerfIndex) in the cluster.
DeltaPerfIndex of each model is the delta difference between the current configuration performance index (CurrConfigPerfIndex) and the performance index of the cluster configuration (ClusterPerfIndex).
In step 404, the hardware models within a brand are sorted based on their DeltaPerfIndex. At step 406, a model with smallest DeltaPerfindex is selected and then in step 408, it is checked to see whether the cluster configuration comprising the selected model conforms to the best practice rules. If the cluster configuration conforms to the best practice rules, it is returned as the search result configuration (ResultConfig) at step 412. Otherwise, the hardware model, which caused the cluster configuration to fail the best practice rules test, is removed from the search space at step 410. The process steps 406, 408 and 410 are repeated until a cluster configuration, which conforms to the best practice rules, is found.
The first set of rules deal with the SMP (Symmetric Multi-Processor) size. In
The second set of rules deal with the Vertical vs. Horizontal Solution. In
For a given hardware configuration, Table-3 605 shows how the current configuration performance index (e.g. CurrConfigPerfIndex=900;) is used in finding a cluster of a specific hardware model within the database which conforms to the established best practice rules.
Those of ordinary skill in the art will recognize that the present invention and the autonomic algorithm described above are not limited to a specific hardware or a specific computer system or a specific set of rules. The above algorithm can be extended to more detailed modeling in a number of different ways. For example, other set of rules can be used to further narrow or expand the search space, or more specific hardware brand or model could be target of such algorithm.
Those of ordinary skill in the art will further recognize that although the autonomic algorithm of the present invention is originally intended for modeling of complex web sites, the algorithm can be equally applied to other computer systems. For example, the algorithm can be used in modeling a network of interacting computer devices, multi-tiered hardware systems, raid disks, paging operations, or other hardware facilities such as busses, network connections, and edge servers. Using this algorithm, typical IT infrastructures can be analyzed and optimum configuration of devices can be formed to assist users in predicting and planning how to meet future requirements.

Comfortable, well made and really good to climb in. For the price I'd say buy two pairs. Waist fits true to tag size so if your between sizes I'd say size up, although theres stretch in the waist band so some wiggle room. A zip thigh pocket would absolutely complete them.

Thiruvananthapuram (Kerala), Oct 6: With the International Monetary Fund (IMF) saying that the United States is likely to suffer a slowdown, IT professionals in Kerala dread a ripple down effect that could hurt their careers.
Earlier, media across the globe had reported the IMF saying that the US would likely suffer a sharp economic downturn, or even recession, judging by the impact of similar banking crisis around the globe over the past 30 years. The IMF has in its latest report said the risk of recession is higher when financial turmoil is preceded by rising house prices and rapid expansion of credit, which was the case in the United States.
The IT professionals in India said that since it is a global village that we are living in now, no country can escape any kind of a global trend.
But the fact that the Information Technology and software firms across the globe are more integrated than any other industry, its effect would be more on them, they added.
"We are living in a global economy, so, obviously, any positive things happening globally will have positive impact on our industry. Anything that is negative ought to have a negative impact on our economy also. IT industry being integrated with global industry, I am sure there will be some ripple effect happening in IT industry in India," said Radhakrishnan Nair, Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Technopark.
After several years of a housing boom, the US economy has been shaken by a banking crisis that began with a spike in defaults among the riskiest mortgages and spread to Wall Street, marking the worst financial crisis since the Great Depression.
And with experts saying that slowdowns or recessions preceded by bank-related stress tend to last longer than the normal, salaried employees are now left wondering how they would cope with the rising interest rates and the lack of liquidity in the market.
"The main impact is how much our interest rates are going up as far as house mortgages are concerned, the more the interest rate and with the freeze in the salary. We will not be able to pay our monthly Equal Monthly Installments and that could have a direct impact on having defaulted on payment and when there are too many defaulters in the market, it would indirectly effect the banks," saidanjit Darwin, an IT professional.
Industry sources say that India has set a software export target of around 60 billion dollars by 2010 and their ability to insulate themselves from the global crisis would affect the future growth of the IT industry.

The Overview Effect, first described by author Frank White in 1987, is an experience that transforms astronauts' perspective of the planet and mankind's place upon it. Common features of the experience are a feeling of awe for the planet, a profound understanding of the interconnection of all life, and a renewed sense of responsibility for taking care of the environment.
'Overview' is a short film that explores this phenomenon through interviews with five astronauts who have experienced the Overview Effect. The film also features insights from commentators and thinkers on the wider implications and importance of this understanding for society, and our relationship to the environment.

• RON GARAN – ISS astronaut and founder of humanitarian organization Fragile Oasis
• NICOLE STOTT – Shuttle and ISS astronaut and member of Fragile Oasis

Canaveral National Seashore and Merritt Island National Wildlife Refuge, is located on one of Florida's many barrier islands.

otsoNY Comments: It doesn't get much more "Blue-Screen" than this film. In fact, nothing was shot in New York City, the whole production was done in New South Wales in Australia. Here you see a car pass over the Queenboro Bridge traveling towards the island of Manhattan and East 59th Street.

Volothamp Geddarm ('Volo' to his public), traveler, author, renaissance man of the Realms, has been known to brag on occasion, and to bet even more often. So when a discussion as to who is the greatest traveler in the Realms takes place in his presence, of course he is going to defend his hard-won reputation, no matter what the consequences. Soon Volo and his erstwhile companion, Passepout, are on a gard tour the likes of which Toril has never seen. From Chult to Kara Tur, from Suzail to the Shining South, even from the Land of the Dead to Maztica, Volo and Passepout make their way around the globe... little suspecting that this simple bet masks a dark conspiracy unlike any other.
