Cost Efficiency, Scale Elasticity and Scale Economies in Arab Banking [PDF]
Banks and Bank Systems, 2006 This study investigates Cost Efficiency, Scale Elasticity and Scale Economies of the Jordanian, Egyptian, Saudi Arabian and Bahraini banking systems. Our sample comprises information on 82 banks operating in the countries under study over 1992-2000. The stochastic frontier and Fourierflexible form are used to estimate cost efficiency, scale elasticity ...

Elastic Scaling for Data Stream Processing [PDF]
IEEE Transactions on Parallel and Distributed Systems, 2014 This article addresses the profitability problem associated with auto-parallelization of general-purpose distributed data stream processing applications. Auto-parallelization involves locating regions in the application's data flow graph that can be replicated at run-time to apply data partitioning, in order to achieve scale.

Efficacy of Low-temperature Plasma for Treatment of Facial Rejuvenation in Asian Population
Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, Global Open, 2021 Background:. Plasma, the fourth state of matter, has been widely proposed in antiaging medicine. The usage of low-temperature plasma (LTP), which converts nitrogen gas into plasma, demonstrates releasing of several growth factors and promotion of tissue ...

Scaling laws for the elastic-scattering amplitude [PDF]
EPL (Europhysics Letters), 2012 The partial differential equation for the imaginary part of the elastic scattering amplitude is derived. It is solved in the black disk limit. The asymptotical scaling behavior of the amplitude coinciding with the geometrical scaling is proved. Its extension to preasymptotical region and modifications of scaling laws for the differential cross section ...

Elastic FemtoCaching: Scale, Cache, and Route
IEEE Transactions on Wireless Communications, 2021 The advent of elastic Content Delivery Networks (CDNs) enable Content Providers (CPs) to lease cache capacity on demand and at different cloud and edge locations in order to enhance the quality of their services. This paper addresses key challenges in this context, namely how to invest an available budget in cache space in order to match spatio ...
