The document proposes a model for auction-based bandwidth bidding between users and service providers. The model involves:
1) Service providers dynamically setting spot prices for bandwidth based on supply and demand. Prices are higher during peak times.
2) Users bidding for bandwidth above the current spot price. Bids below the price may be interrupted until prices fall.
3) A bidding strategy is described where users calculate optimal bids based on their bandwidth needs and the spot price history to minimize costs while avoiding interruptions.
4) The model could be applied to MapReduce jobs by bidding separately for guaranteed bandwidth for masters and spot bandwidth for slaves.
1. The document summarizes a project that analyzed social media data from Facebook and Twitter about 2016 US presidential candidates. It collected data using APIs and natural language processing, then stored statistics in a DynamoDB database and displayed analyses on a website.
2. It implemented features to retrieve and analyze data from Facebook and Twitter, including sentiment analysis and aggregating hashtags, adjectives, and engagement statistics. Challenges included data volume limitations and lack of a public Facebook API.
3. Future work proposed including more international data sources and using machine learning to extrapolate sentiment analysis trends over time.
This document describes an Android application called Tambola that allows users to play an online multiplayer version of the game Tambola on their Android devices over Wi-Fi. It discusses the key activities and features of the app, including organizing a game as the server or playing as a client, generating tickets, receiving randomly drawn numbers, checking for completed rows/houses, and optional settings like music and automation. The objective is to create an efficient, secure multiplayer Tambola game in the Android environment.
The document outlines the strict protocol that was required when passing objects to Queen Marie Antoinette or other members of the royal family, demonstrating the formality and hierarchy at the French court. Anyone presenting items to the queen would place the object on a decorative tray instead of directly handing it to her, showing the social distance imposed between the monarch and other classes. This protocol gives insights into the highly stratified society and emphasis on noble status and prestige under the French monarchy in the late 18th century.
The Crusades were a series of religious wars during the Middle Ages between Christian and Muslim armies fighting for control of the Holy Lands, an important area in the Middle East centered around Jerusalem. Pope Urban II launched the First Crusade in 1095 by calling on all Christians to march to the Middle East, capture Jerusalem from Muslim rule, and help defend pilgrims visiting Christian holy sites. Tens of thousands joined the Crusade, which succeeded in taking Jerusalem in 1099 after capturing several other Muslim cities. The Crusades established Christian kingdoms in the region and sparked centuries of ongoing religious conflict, though Jerusalem was eventually recaptured by Muslim leader Saladin in 1187.

Object Tracking using Artificial Neural NetworkAnwar Jameel
The document presents a model for object tracking using an artificial neural network (ANN). The ANN takes in the coordinates of a stimulus and the current eye positions and outputs the direction each eye should move to focus on the target. The ANN is trained on sample data and is able to smoothly track a stimulus as it moves around the visual field in both discrete and continuous positions. The results demonstrate that ANNs are capable of human-like object tracking behavior and could be extended to 3D modeling.
