Background and Significance In the past half century, the world populous has dramatically shifted from rural environments into urban centers. In 1950, as little as 30% of the world 's population resided in urban centers. Now, that proportion has risen to 50% and is predicted reach over 70% by 2050 (“World Urbanization Prospects: The 2014 Revision, Highlights”). This shift in the world 's populous has been termed urbanization, which is the increase in number of cities and amount of people that…

Introduction According to Charles J. Krebs ecology is the “scientific study of the interaction between organisms and their environment that determine their distribution and abundance” (Krebs 1978). The environment is made up of different components that are classified as abiotic and biotic. Abiotic deals with nonliving and physical elements like rain, wind, soil or pollutions. Biotic are living components that include predation, parasites, and competition. Competition is an interaction between…

load. This will achieves O(log(AVG [max┬i⁡celi , min┬i⁡flo] ) running time. These zones are categorized as follows and so on. Then instead of hashing all the nodes in the system, we start hashing each node in a specific zone by using spooky hash function illustrated in next subsection, then based on the hashes obtained the nodes are organized in levels (level 1 to 3 based on number of nodes) and the node with the highest weighted hash in the upper level will be assigned as coordinator of this…

Overconsumption is costing us our happiness. Have you ever caught yourself splurging trying to find happiness just to end up disappointed. In Judith's Levine's article called "Not Buying It" she cut out all her extra spending habits for a year and consequently lived off a strict budget that would cover all her necessities. After her year long project she experienced life changing lessons such as having a new perspective on spending and new values in her everyday life . Another article that talks…

equals 1, the students will have discovered that tangent equals the ratio of sine and cosine. Instead of asking students to memorize the widely-known trigonometric ratio, students will have discovered the ratio intuitively and will have a higher probability of retention in long-term…

Inverse Functions of Trigonometric Functions As high schoolers go their their teenage years of high school they learn from a variety of subjects. From math to science to history, there is a depth of knowledge to be learned. For math 3 and math 4, we are introduced to the world of trigonometry. So far, we have learned that there are currently three main trigonometric functions, cosine, sine, and tangent. But today I want to explore the other side of the trigonometric world, the inverse…

Ajay Devgan says, “By getting into distribution and production, I have actually widened my base” (Distribution Quotes, 2016). Distributions are all around us in the fields of programming, medical, the sciences in many of today colleges. For me, distributions occurred in the aspect of programming, childhood and motherhood. As a single mother with a son, distribution appears in many activities, such as college and taking care of my child. As a student in Trine University, statistics class has many…

MR-RHVH framework apply the distributed structure of nodes using MapReduce, that equally partition data amongst Cassandra nodes using mapper and reducer functions. The MR-RHVH framework consists of three main layers, as shown in figure 2, Cassandra/Hadoop Cluster, MRRHVH, Cassandra/Hadoop Data Center and Hadoop/MapReduce applier. Cassandra clients ' nodes are distributed in this data center. Task Tracker…

Hypotonic and when the solutes are greater outside the cell versus inside the cell, the cell tends to be Hypertonic. My first hypothesis for the first egg that was placed in 14% distilled water was that the egg will gain mass and for our second egg that was placed in 30% sucrose will lose mass…
