Elasticity detection : a building block for internet congestion control
… 90%. We present the design and evaluation of Nimbus, a congestion control protocol that uses the elasticity detector to switch between delay-control and TCP-competitive modes. Our results on emulated and real-world paths show that Nimbus achieves throughput comparable to or better than Cubic …

Congestion Control in Highly Variable Networks
… better average completion time for long flows. Nimbus proposes a new feedback mechanism, elasticity detection, to robustly characterize the nature of cross-traffic competing a flow. Nimbus enables low delay congestion control in the Internet without any router modifications. Compared to deployed …

The investigation of early classification of pressure ulcers using computer image analysis for early prognostic assessment
… and above pressure ulcers (71 on Cairwave, 70 on Nimbus 3). The secondary aim was to determine whether availability of extra pressure relief equipment would reduce the incidence of ulcers in an acute hospital. " The second study investigated healing rates on the alternating mattress. This was …

The Study of Weddell Sea Ice using passive microwave and buoy data
… Weddell Sea ice cover in 1980 is examined, using Nimbus-7 satellite Scanning Multi-channel Microwave Radiometer (SMMR) data in combination with data (positional, air temperature and atmospheric pressure) from 4 Nimbus-tracked drifting buoys. Ice concentrations are retrieved from the SMMR data by …

The Ontology of the Venetian Halo in its Italian Context
… the fugitive and transient qualities of the nimbus are noted, with its mimesis of the dying corporeal body in its fading insubstantiality, a further factor in its inexorably reductive form as increasing realism in art challenges its ontological traits. Textual characters contained within the …

40 Years Global Estimation of Aerosol Optical Depth Profiles Using MISR and TOMS Aerosol Products
… aerosol index data at 380nm from TOMS on-board Nimbus 7 and Earth Probe to aerosol optical depth at 550nm. Data gaps exist in both the TOMS and MISR data. These data gaps were filled using appropriate interpolation algorithms. Synthetic gaps were created in the locations containing original data …
