A new algorithm, the Horizontal and Vertical Algorithm, for
on-line detection of deadlocks in distributed computer systems, is
presented. Two protocols for implementing the algorithm are given.
The first protocol, the centralized protocol, is based on the
assumption that one site in the network acts as the controller for
global...
The breaking radii of variously discolored veneers of six different hardwood species were small enough, for most of the discolorations, to indicate that such veneers can be used successfully on members having curved surfaces. When expressed in terms of the minimum radius of curvature attained without fracturing, the breaking radius...
The rat caused by Pozia incrassata (Berk, and Curt.) Burt (sometimes erroneously called "dry rot") in individual cases is the most destructive of the building decays in the warm coastal portions of the United States and the South. The fungus usually attacks rapidly and may cause damage necessitating extensive repairs...
Stocking levels and height growth rates of noble fir and
associated species were measured on 51 clearcut study areas within
the Pacific silver fir zone of the Oregon and Washington Cascades.
Clearcut study areas were approximately 20 years old and had either
planted noble fir or natural regeneration of noble...
