The locational mechanisms in MISO's capacity market may result in price separation between different capacity zones due to constraints in limiting capacity transfers between capacity zones. Managing this price separation risk is identified as one of the issues in MISO's resource adequacy construct. A new financial property right, Capacity Transfer Right (CTR), is proposed to hedge against this price...
Recently, storage systems have observed a great leap in performance, reliability, endurance, and cost, due to the advance in non-volatile memory technologies, such as NAND flash memory. However, although delivering better performance, shock resistance, and energy efficiency than mechanical hard disks, NAND flash memory comes with unique characteristics and operational constraints, and cannot be directly...
In Cloud Computing Resources are allocated to customers based on their requests and prioritization, but sometimes a non-cloud provider organization wants to share their spare resources to same customers through Cloud Brokers so in this type of system a heterogeneous environment is created between regular cloud providers, Non- cloud provider organization, cloud broker and customers. In this paper we...
The task allocation is important part of cooperation behavior modeling. It's influenced by communication and combat capability. According to the existing study, our task allocation model chooses the strategy of agency communication to expend communication network. We use iceberg model to classify the combat capability, and propose the method based on entity comprehensive capability and strategy of...
Many firms struggle with managing a portfolio of multiple interdependent projects. Therefore, practitioners and researchers are eager to learn which factors affect project portfolio success and how it can be increased. However, it takes some time for changes in management practices to reveal their potential. Thus, it is interesting to know how portfolio success can be predicted and what the possible...
The emerging Through Silicon Via (TSV) based 3D integration technology provides the means to stack two or more dies, enabling a low-latency interface between them. Apart of the immediate advantages of such an approach, e.g., short wires, it also opens research avenues for 3D organizations of computation platforms. In this line of reasoning we propose in this paper to share resources between stacked...
Emergencies today seem larger, more complex, and unique than those of the past. Responding to them requires flexibility and creativity not easily achieved. The threat-rigidity thesis proposed by Staw, Sandelands, and Dutton proposes that response to an environmental threat is often one of constriction of control and restriction of information that results in a rigidity of response that can be maladaptive...
During an emergency response, access to a reliable communication infrastructure is required to exchange accurate information in a timely manner. Various communication technologies have been deployed for emergency response; however communication between different first response organizations has always been a problem. This is due to either broken networks or lack of knowledge regarding the channel...
With an increased focus on national security and public safety communications, the US Congress revisited its plan to reclaim television broadcaster frequencies to be reallocated and auctioned by the FCC and it specifically allocated a portion of that spectrum for use by public safety. The FCC was charged with the duty of auctioning this spectrum and licensing it to create a public safety network....
Based on justice literature and collecting customerspsila critical incidents of unfair experiences, the authors built a primary frame on service injustice. Four kinds of injustice, distributive injustice, procedural injustice, interactive injustice and informational injustice, had been sorted. Furthermore, the relationship between service injustice and customer behavior had been tested. The results...
As Grid networks grows, the complexity of resource management in Grid networks dramatically increases. To manage the Grid resources efficiently, policy based resource management system is suitable. However, the policy which made at a moment could not be appropriate to other time because the condition of the grid resources with time space changes. Thus, in this paper, we propose asynchronous policy-based...
In this paper, we propose a cognitive radio-based multi-user resource allocation framework for mobile ad hoc networks using multi-carrier DS CDMA modulation over a frequency-selective fading channel. In particular, given pre-existing communications in the spectrum where the system is operating, in addition to potential narrow-band interference, a channel sensing and estimation mechanism is provided...
