Modeling the Fault Tolerance Consequences of Deduplication

2011 IEEE 30th International Symposium on Reliable Distributed Systems, 2011
Modern storage systems are employing data deduplication with increasing frequency. Often the storage systems on which these techniques are deployed contain important data, and utilize fault-tolerant hardware and software to improve the reliability of the system and reduce data loss. We suggest that data deduplication introduces inter-file relationships

Tarski on Models and Logical Consequence

2006
Abstract In the last two decades there has been a heated debate on the exact nature of Tarski’s theory of logical consequence (Tarski 1936a, 1936b). Since the publication of Etchemendy’s papers and book in the 1980s, contributions by, among others, Sher, Ray, Gomez-Torrente, and Bays have provided a much more detailed picture of Tarski’s

Health Consequences of Behaviors: Injury as a Model

Pediatrics, 1992
I always like to make things as simple as possible, but no simpler. —Einstein As a model for behavioral pediatric research, injury prevention presents a relatively clear example of how behavior can dramatically and directly impact health status.

Modeling the Consequences of a Nuclear Strike

Economic Strategies, 2022
The risks of increasing international tension have sharply exacerbated the possibility of a nuclear conflict. The main geopolitical players in the international arena have actually recognized the possibility and even expediency of using nuclear weapons.

Progressive damage in discrete models and consequences on continuum modelling

Journal of the Mechanics and Physics of Solids, 1996
In phenomenological damage models, damage is very often understood as a degradation of the elastic stiffness of the material. The unrealistic features of damage localisation as a result of strain softening are usually circumvented by the introduction of an internal length in the continuum description that scales the localisation process and controls ...

Consequences of population models for the dynamics of food chains

Mathematical Biosciences, 1998
A class of bioenergetic ecological models is studied for the dynamics of food chains with a nutrient at the base. A constant influx rate of the nutrient and a constant efflux rate for all trophic levels is assumed. Starting point is a simple model where prey is converted into predator with a fixed efficiency.

Consequences of a fourth generation in the standard model

Physical Review Letters, 1993
Physical consequences in a scenario of an elementary Higgs boson with a mass between 0.6 and 1 TeV together with the presence of comparable heavy fermions are studied. There could be a problem with the [ital S] parameter due to the presence of a low-energy [ital P]-wave resonance in [ital W][sub [ital L]W[ital L]] scattering.

Deducing the consequences of evolution: A mathematical model

Journal of Theoretical Biology, 1970
Abstract The purpose of this paper is to give the foundation for a precise, concise and testable statement of Darwin's theory of evolution (i.e. anagenesis) upon which a precise, concise and testable statement of the complete theory of evolution (including splitting of species) can be based.

The Consequences Of Model Misspecification In Regression Analysis

Multivariate Behavioral Research, 1976
In ordinary least squares regression analysis the desired property of unbiasedness in estimated coefficients is contingent upon the correspondence of the fitted model with the true underlying data generating process. This paper focuses on developing a systematic characterization of the error forms resulting from model misspecification in single ...

Modeling the Distribution and Consequences of Alcohol Consumption

Alcoholism: Clinical & Experimental Research, 1998
This paper is based on the session “Modeling the Distribution and Consequences of Alcohol Consumption” that was held on May 12‐14, 1997 at the International Workshop on Consumption Measures and Models for Use in Policy Development and Evaluation, Bethesda, MD. The session chair was Paul J.
