Equalizing the amount of processing time for each reducer instead of equalizing the amount of data each process in heterogeneous environment. A lightweight strategy to address the data skew problem among the reductions of MapReduce applications. MapReduce has been widely used in various applications, including web indexing, log analysis, data mining, scientific simulations and machine translations. The data skew refers to the imbalance in the amount of data assigned to each task.Using an innovative sampling method which can achieve a highly accurate approximation to the distribution of the intermediate data by sampling only a small fraction during the map processing and to reduce the data in reducer side. Prioritizing the sampling tasks for partitioning decision and splitting of large keys is supported when application semantics permit.Thus providing a reduced data of total ordered output as a result by range partitioner. In the proposed system, the data reduction is by predicting the reduction orders in parallel data processing using feature and instance selection. The accuracy of the data scale and data skew is effectively improved by CHI-ICF data reduction technique. In the existing system normal data distribution is calculated instead here still efficient distribution of data using the feature selection by χ 2 statistics (CHI) and instance selection by Iterative case filter (ICF) is processed.
La colecistitis aguda es la inflamación aguda de la vesícula biliar, generalmente causada por la obstrucción del conducto cístico por un cálculo. Los síntomas incluyen dolor abdominal agudo en el cuadrante superior derecho, fiebre y leucocitosis. El diagnóstico se realiza mediante ultrasonografía que muestra engrosamiento de la pared vesicular, líquido perivesicular y la presencia de cálculos. El tratamiento es la colecistectomía para evitar complicaciones como la perforación o gangrena de la vesí
This paper presents the development of a camera-based assistive text reading framework to help blind persons read text labels and product packaging from hand-held objects in their daily lives. Recent developments in computer vision, digital cameras, and portable computers make it feasible to assist these individuals by developing camera-based products that combine computer vision technology with other existing commercial products such optical character recognition (OCR) systems. To automatically extract the text regions from the object, we propose a artificial neural network algorithm by learning gradient features of stroke orientations and distributions of edge pixels in an Adaboost model. Text characters in the localized text regions are binarized for processing the algorithm and the text characters are recognized by off-the-shelf OCR (Optical Character Recognition) and other process involved . Now the binarized signals are converted to audible signal. The working principle is as follows first the respected image will be captured and then it is converted to binary signals. Now the image is diagnosed to find whether the text is present in the image. Secondly, if the text is present, then the object of interest is detected. The respected text of the image is recognized and then converted to audible signals. Thus the recognized text codes are given as speech to the user.
The document discusses using cognitive radio techniques to improve spectrum utilization between 1700-1900 MHz. It proposes using frequency division duplexing to allocate specific downlink and uplink bands between 1770-1800 MHz, 1830-1840 MHz, and 1860-1880 MHz. The document concludes that this is a potential solution and identifies new access techniques, network energy efficiency, and massive MIMO as topics for future work.

Inflation is an increase in the aggregate money price level. In 2015, Vietnam has reached its lowest annual Consumer Price Index (“CPI”) in the last decade of 0.63%. This allowed the country to stimulate production and grow well for a short term. However, the inflation needs to increase to 4-5% for a long-term growth. Thus, the government has made some moves to spike up inflation at a control level in 2016. Along with this action, the increase in the world price of oil and the decrease in Vietnam’s food supply have contributed to the rise of inflation during the first five months of 2016. The inflation rate is projected to grow to more than 5% in the end of 2016 and will continuously grow in 2017.
This document discusses trends in English as a foreign language (EFL) teaching over the past 15 years based on observations from teachers and specialists. It identifies 6 key trends: 1) the increasing status and use of English, 2) more English-medium instruction of other subjects, 3) evolving roles of English teachers, 4) starting English education earlier, 5) changes to English curriculum design, and 6) increasing use of computer-assisted learning. It also examines trends in Vietnam specifically, such as policies strengthening English and a shift toward more communicative language teaching approaches.

Planning for Good and UNICEF met to discuss ideas for a late-year fundraising campaign. The group presented high and low impact ideas for 2007 and 2008. High impact 2007 ideas included "Adopt a Child for an hour" and getting children involved in fundraising. Lower impact 2007 ideas targeted accountants and framed donations as "saving" versus holiday spending. 2008 ideas suggested making donations easy through small amounts from many donors and redirecting unwanted gifts. The group sought UNICEF's feedback on potential ideas to pursue.

This bracelet is inspired by myths of the phoenix or firebird from several cultures. It is made using a technique called scale mail that resembles woven metal feathers. The bracelet is constructed by weaving gold, red, and orange metal scales together using small metal rings to create overlapping diamond and V-shapes resembling the feathers of a firebird.
The document appears to contain a date and the word "Scales" but no other context or information. In just 3 numbers and 1 word, it is difficult to determine the essential information or meaning.
Fred Bassett and other volunteer researchers have challenged the idea that hummingbirds abandon the United States mainland each winter. Their research shows that some Western hummingbird species like Allen's and Black-chinned spend winters along the Gulf Coast. The presence of backyard feeders along the Gulf Coast provides critical food sources and allows more people to observe wintering hummingbirds. Some hummingbirds now return year after year to overwinter in the same areas.
The author completed a "Big Green Birding Year" by birding only within biking or walking distance of her home for 365 days. She found 210 bird species during the year, including rare species like an American Bittern and Northern Saw-whet Owl. Birding without a vehicle forced her to focus on local habitats and phenology, and rely on tips from other birders. Though a more limited area than driving allows, the author gained an appreciation for the diversity of habitats near her home and made unexpected discoveries. The experience also grew her son's interest in birding through shared bike rides exploring different areas.
Charles Babbitt set out to find all 13 owl species found in Arizona in a single year. He started by hearing Great Horned and Western Screech owls near his home on New Year's Day. Over the course of the year, he traveled across Arizona, finding owls like Northern Saw-whet in the San Francisco Peaks and Ferruginous Pygmy-Owl at Organ Pipe Cactus National Monument. The most memorable were a Spotted Owl watching him from a tree in the Huachuca Mountains and a Long-eared Owl nesting in Ganado Wash. By the end of 2009, Babbitt had achieved his goal of seeing all 13 owl species in Arizona.
A birdwatching magazine covers a red-shouldered hawk's first 16 days after hatching through eyewitness observations of the parents caring for the young hawk. It also explores mysteries of bluebird migration patterns and identifies birds commonly found in backyards, such as owls, warblers, orioles, and hummingbirds. The magazine additionally recommends compact digital cameras that are useful for birders.
