Independent validation of experimental results in the field of systems research is a challenging task, mainly due to differences in software and hardware in computational environments. Recreating an environment that resembles the original is difficult and time-consuming. In this paper we introduce _Popper_, a convention based on a set of modern open source software (OSS) development principles for...
Reading input from primary storage (i.e. the ingest phase) and aggregating results (i.e. the merge phase) are important pre- and post-processing steps in large batch computations. Unfortunately, today's data sets are so large that the ingest and merge job phases are now performance bottlenecks. In this paper, we mitigate the ingest and merge bottlenecks by leveraging the scale-up MapReduce model....
n-Propyl gallate (nPG) is a food preservative that is generally regarded as safe by the US FDA. It suppresses oxidation in biological systems. The mechanism by which nPG acts in biological systems is uncertain. We investigated whether nPG protected cultured lens epithelial cells from H 2 O 2 -induced damage. Cells were treated with H 2 O 2 or with nPG and then H ...
