Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPotential Photooxidation Pathways of Dicarboxylic Acids in Atmospheric DropletsL.M. Yang, L.E. Yu, M.B. RayLow molecular weight (LMW) dicarboxylic acids (DCAs) have received increasing attention because of their hygroscopic properties and capability of acting as cloud condensation nuclei (CCN). Based on the concentration profiles of intermediates identified during laboratory photooxidation of C7-C9 DCAs in a liquid-phase reaction system, chemometric analyses were conducted to examine the degradation pathways of DCAs for the formation of secondary … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 5 · 31 Oct 2008 · 6,497 accessesView PDFCite

Chiwamba, Jackson Phiri, Philip O.Y. Nkunika et al.Maize is the main food crop that meets the nutritional needs of both humans and livestock in the sub-Saharan African region. Maize crop has in the recent past been threatened by the fall armyworm (Spodoptera frugiperda, J.E Smith) which has caused considerable maize yield losses in the region. Controlling this pest requires knowledge on the time, location and extent of … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 15, Issue 12 · 19 Dec 2019 · 8,364 accessesView PDFCite
InvestigationOpen accessAll words, across the recordLoad Balancing For Cloud-Based Dynamic Data ProcessingTalal Talib JameelThe Map/Reduce paradigm has dominated cloud computing since its beginnings. However, there are some scenarios in which Map/Reduce is not the best model. Once such situation is a system that collects data dynamically, with intermittent arrival times. In this study, we study a modified form of Map/Reduce that uses a load balancer to distribute work, rather than simply assigning a … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 13, Issue 8 · 20 May 2017 · 7,111 accessesView PDFCite
