Flow-Length Aware Cache Replacement Policy for Packet Processing Cache

International Journal of Advanced Computer Science and Applications, 2018
Recent core routers are required to process packets not only at high throughput but also with low power consumption due to the increase in the network traffic amount. Packet processing cache (PPC) is one of the effective approaches to meet the requirements. PPC enables to process a packet without accessing to a ternary content addressable memory (TCAM)

Wari Lithic Technology on the Northern Coast of the Andes: Geochemical, 2D Geometric Morphometric, and Technological Analyses of Obsidian Bifaces From San José de Moro

Archaeometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examines Wari obsidian production in a cache of 39 bifaces found at the Late Moche site of San José de Moro (Jequetepeque Valley, North Coast of Peru, 700–850 ad). Portable X‐ray fluorescence, geometric morphometric, and technological analyses were used to investigate raw material provenance and bifacial production.
