Referring Expressions with Rational Speech Act Framework: A Probabilistic App...IJDKP
This paper focuses on a referring expression generation (REG) task in which the aim is to pick
out an object in a complex visual scene. One common theoretical approach to this problem is
to model the task as a two-agent cooperative scheme in which a ‘speaker’ agent would generate
the expression that best describes a targeted area and a ‘listener’ agent would identify the target.
Several recent REG systems have used deep learning approaches to represent the speaker/listener
agents. The Rational Speech Act framework (RSA), a Bayesian approach to pragmatics that can
predict human linguistic behavior quite accurately, has been shown to generate high quality and
explainable expressions on toy datasets involving simple visual scenes. Its application to large scale
problems, however, remains largely unexplored. This paper applies a combination of the probabilistic
RSA framework and deep learning approaches to larger datasets involving complex visual scenes
in a multi-step process with the aim of generating better-explained expressions. We carry out
experiments on the RefCOCO and RefCOCO+ datasets and compare our approach with other endto-end deep learning approaches as well as a variation of RSA to highlight our key contribution.
Experimental results show that while achieving lower accuracy than SOTA deep learning methods,
our approach outperforms similar RSA approach in human comprehension and has an advantage
over end-to-end deep learning under limited data scenario. Lastly, we provide a detailed analysis
on the expression generation process with concrete examples, thus providing a systematic view
on error types and deficiencies in the generation process and identifying possible areas for future
improvements.

React JS Components & Its Importance.docxReact Masters
Explore the importance of React components, Virtual DOM, JSX, State, Props, and more. Unlock the secrets to optimizing React performance and gain insights into React Native for mobile app development.
In the context of React, “components” refer to reusable, self-contained building blocks that encapsulate a part of a user interface (UI) and its logic. React is a JavaScript library for building user interfaces, and its component-based architecture makes it easier to manage and scale complex UIs. React components can be thought of as custom, reusable HTML elements with associated JavaScript logic. React components enable a modular and maintainable approach to building UIs, as they can be composed and reused throughout the application. The component-based structure of React promotes a clear separation of concerns and facilitates the development and maintenance of large-scale applications.

Experimental Investigation of a Household Refrigerator Using Evaporative-Cool...inventy
The objective of this paper was to investigate experimentally the effect of Evaporative-cooled condenser in a household refrigerator. The experiment was done using HCF134a as the refrigerant. The performance of the household refrigerator with air-cooled and Evaporative-cooled condenser was compared for different load conditions. The results indicate that the refrigerator performance had improved when evaporative-cooled condenser was used instead of air-cooled condenser on all load conditions. Evaporativecooled condenser reduced the energy consumption when compared with the air-cooled condenser. There was also an enhancement in coefficient of performance (COP) when evaporative-cooled condenser was used instead of air-cooled condenser. The Evaporative cooled heat exchanger was designed and the system was modified by retrofitting it, instead of the conventional air-cooled condenser by making drop wise condensation using water and forced circulation over the condenser. From the experimental analysis it is observed that the COP of evaporative cooled system increased by 13.44% compared to that of air cooled system. So the overall efficiency and refrigerating effect is increased. In minimum constructional, maintenance and running cost, the system is much useful for domestic purpose. This study also revealed that combining a evaporative cooled system along with conventional water cooled system under the condition that the defrost water obtained from the freezer is used for drop wise condensation over condenser and water cooled condensation of the condenser at the bottom using remaining defrost water would reduce the power consumption, work done and hence further increase in refrigerating effect of the system. The study has shown that such a system is technically feasible and economically viable

Comparative Study of the Quality of Life, Quality of Work Life and Organisati...inventy
People’s lives are increasingly centred on work; they spend at least one-third of their time within the organisations that employ them. Investigating the factors that interfere with employees’ well-being and the organisational environment is becoming an increasing concern in organisations. This article identifies the criteria of the quality of life (QoL), quality of working life (QWL) and organisational climate instruments to point out their similarities. For bibliographic construction and data research, articles were sought in national and international journals, books and dissertations/articles in SciELO, Science Direct, Medline and Pub Med databases. The results show direct relationships amongst QoL, QWL and organisational climate instruments. The relationship between QoL and QWL instruments is based on fair compensation, social interaction, organisational communication, working conditions and functional capacity. QWL and organisational climate instruments are related through social interaction and interfaces. QoL and organisational climate instruments are related based on social interaction, organisational communication, and work conditions.
A Study of Automated Decision Making Systemsinventy
The decision making process of many operations are dependent on analysing very large data sets, previous decisions and their results. The information generated from the large data sets are used as an input for making decisions. Since the decisions to be taken in day to day operations are expanding, the time taken for manual decision making is also expanding. In order to reduce the time, cost and to increase the efficiency and accuracy, which are the most important things for customer satisfaction, many organisations are adopting the automated decision making systems. This paper is about the technologies used for automated decision making systems and the areas in which automated decisions systems works more efficiently and accurately.
Crystallization of L-Glutamic Acid: Mechanism of Heterogeneous β -Form Nuclea...inventy
The mechanism of heterogeneous nucleation of β-form L-glutamic acid was deeply investigated in cooling crystallization. The present study found that the β-form crystals were epitaxially grown on the α-form crystals and they were preferably crystallized on the (011) and (001) surfaces instead of the (111) surfaces of α- form crystals. This result was explained via the molecular simulation. The molecular simulation indicated that the different surfaces of α-form crystals provided different functional groups, resulting in different sites for the heterogeneous nucleation of β-form crystals. Here, the functional group were COO- , C=O and O-H on the (011) and (001) surfaces of α-form crystals, respectively, while it was the NH3 + on the (111) surfaces of α-form crystals. As such, the degree of lattice matching (E) between the β-form crystals and the various surfaces of α- form crystal was distinguished, where the degree of lattice matching (E) between the β-form crystals and the (011), (001) and (111) surfaces of α-form crystal were estimated as 5.30, 5.25 and 2.39, respectively, implying that the (011) and (001) surfaces of α-form crystal were more favorable to generate the heterogeneous nucleation of β-form crystals than the (111) surfaces of α-form crystal
Evaluation of Damage by the Reliability of the Traction Test on Polymer Test ...inventy
In recent decades, polymers have undergone a remarkable historical development and their use has been greatly imposed by gradually dethroning most of the secular materials. These polymer materials have always distinguished themselves by their simple shaping and inexpensive price, their versatility, lightness, and chemical stability but despite their massive use in everyday life as well as in advanced technologies. Generally, these materials still not understood which requires a thorough knowledge of their chemical, physical, rheological and mechanical properties. This paper, we study the mechanical behavior of an amorphous polymer: Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene “ABS” by means of uniaxial tensile testing on pierced test pieces with different notch lengths ranging between 1 to 14mm.The proposed approach consists in analyzing the evolution of the global geometry of the obtained strain curves by taking into account the zones and characteristic points of these curves as well as the effect of the damage on the mechanical behavior of the polymer ABS, in order to visualize the evolution of the damage by a static model
Application of Kennelly’model of Running Performances to Elite Endurance Runn...inventy
: The model of Kennelly between distance (Dlim) and exhaustion time (tlim) has been applied to the individual performances of 19 elite endurance runners (World-record holders and Olympic winners) from P. Nurmi (1920-1924) to M. Farah (2012) whose individual best performances on several different distances are known. Kennelly’s model (Dlim = k tlim ) can describe the individual performances of elite runners with a high accuracy (errors lower than 2 %). There is a linear relationship between parameters k and exponents of the elite runners and the extreme values correspond to S. Coe (k = 15.8; = 0.851) and E. Zatopek (k = 6.57; = 0.984). Exponent can be considered as a dimensionless index of aerobic endurance which is close to 1 in the best endurance runners. If it is assumed than maximal aerobic speed can be maintained 7 min in elite endurance runners, exponent is equal to the normalized critical speed (critical speed/maximal aerobic speed) computed from exhaustion times equal to 3 and 12.5 min in these runners.
Development and Application of a Failure Monitoring System by Using the Vibra...inventy
In this project, a failure monitoring system is developed by using the vibration and location information of balises in railway signaling. A lot of field equipment in railway are loosening and broken in time period so that they need maintenance due to the vibrations that occur due to high speed trains traffic and railway vehicles impact. Among the field equipment, balises have very important role of communication in terms of transmitting information to trains. In this scope, it is aimed to make maintenance works more efficient, have no delayed trains, detect previously failure location and intervene in failure timely, by detecting and controlling balise cases such as loosening, out of place and the data consistency error that happens because of balise physical state. In this project, the communication is provided with I2C, Modbus RTU (Remote Terminal Unit) and RS485 standards by using Arduino Uno cards and MPU6050 IMU (Inertial Measurement Unit) sensors in laboratory. Each used sensors are in slave mode and computer interface designed with C# is in master mode. Fault situations in the system are checked instant by the interface. (it is assumed to mount the IMU sensor and the Arduino circuit on the balise) it is seen that the interface responds to the sensor movements instant and the system works well in the end of test processes.
The Management of Protected Areas in Serengeti Ecosystem: A Case Study of Iko...inventy
The study assessed the management of protected areas in Serengeti ecosystem using the case of IGGRs. Specifically, the study aimed at identifying the strategies used for natural resources management; examining the impacts of those strategies; examining the hindrances of the identified strategies; and lastly, examining the methods for scaling up the performance of strategies used for natural resources in the study area. The study involved two villages among 31 villages bordering IGGRs where in each village; at least 5% of the households were sampled. Both Primary data and secondary data were collected and analyzed both manually and computer by using SPSS software. The study revealed that, study population ranked IGGRs performance on protection of natural resources, especially on conserving wildlife for future generation and in reducing poaching to be good(53.3%). In addition, the relationship with IGGRs was said to be considerable good (46.7%). In the aspect of reducing poaching, the findings show that poaching has been reduced by 96.2% from 2009 to 2012. Furthermore, 81.4% of respondents said they use different strategies to control loss of natural resources which in turn has considerably improved the relationship between protected areas and the surrounding communities in some of the aspects. Despite of above successes, the study findings has revealed a number of challenges that hinders the full attainment of conservation objectives. Among the challenges are loss of life and properties (86.4%), shortage of water for livestock (68.9%) since water sources such as Grumeti and Rubana rivers are within protected area while the adjacent local communities do not have a free access to those water sources. Other challenges especially on the IGGRs management include insufficient fund base, working facilities and inadequate staffs. Based on the above findings, the study concluded that the strategies used for natural resources management of protected areas in Serengeti ecosystem is fairly sustainable and need functional participatory approaches of local people and other stakeholders in order to bring about a collaborative natural resources management network in the ecosystem. Furthermore, based on the findings above, equity in benefit sharing accrued from natural resource management in protected areas, more financial support to IGGRs and local community, the use of non-lethal deterrents for crop protection, integration of croplivestock production systems, adoption of land use plans as a solution to land conflicts, strengthens of community based conservation (CBC), adoption of modern information technology such as geographical information system (GIS) and remote sensing are recommended.

Removal of Chromium (VI) From Aqueous Solutions Using Discarded Solanum Tuber...inventy
Industrial polluting effluents containing heavy metals are of serious environmental concern in India. Chromium is frequently used in industries like electroplating, metal finishing, cooling towers, dyes, paints, anodizing and leather tanning and is found as traces in effluents finding their way to natural water bodies causing hazardous toxicity to the health of humans, animals and aquatic lives directly or indirectly. Many methods for the removal of Chromium such as chemical reduction, precipitation, ion exchange, electrochemical reduction, evaporation, reverse osmosis and adsorption using activated carbon etc. have been reported but all being expensive and complicated to operate. Experimental practices reveal that adsorption by agricultural and horticultural wastes are quite simple, inexpensive and efficient method. Agra is famous for Potato farming, a lot of discarded potato waste from cold storages is thrown along road side drains causing solid waste generated which either creates solid waste disposal problem or otherwise it finds way to Yamuna river resulting high BOD and posing a serious threat to the aquatic environment. For developing countries like India adsorption studies using discarded potato (Solanum tuberosum) waste from cold storages (DPWC) a solid waste as low cost adsorbent for Chromium removal was dual beneficial i.e., an ideal solution to these solid wastes disposal problem of Agra and removal of Chromium from tannery effluents and thereby saving aquatic life from Chromium contamination in Yamuna river. Keeping this in view batch experiments were designed to study the feasibility of discarded potato waste from cold storages to remove chromium (VI) from the aqueous solutions. During the study various affecting parameters, such as pH, adsorbent does, initial concentration, temperature, contact time, adsorbent grain size and start up agitation speed were optimized as 5.0, 10-20 g/l, 50 mg/l, 250C, 135 minutes, average size and 80 rpm respectively on chromium removal efficiency. Various Isotherms such as Langmuir, Freundlich, Tempkin also fitted suitably and various corresponding constants determined from these Isotherms favor and support the adsorption. Thermodynamic constants ∆G, ∆H and ∆S were found to be 0.267 KJ/mole, 0.288 KJ/mole and 0.0013 KJ/mole respectively.

Transient flow analysis for horizontal axial upper-wind turbineinventy
This study is to carry out a transient flow field analysis on the condition that the wind turbine is working to generate turbine, the wind turbine operating conditions change over time, Purpose of this study is try to find out the rule from the wind turbine changing over time . In transient analysis, the wind velocity on inlet boundary and rotation speed in the rotor field will change over time, and an analytical process is provided that can be used for future reference. At present, the wind turbine model is designed on the concept of upwind horizontal axis type. The computer engineering software GH Bladed is used to obtain the relationship between the rotor velocity and the wind turbine. Then the ANSYS engineering software is used to calculate the stress and strain distribution in the blades over time. From the analytical result, the relationship between the stress distribution in the blades and the rotor velocity is got to be used as a reference for future wind turbine structural optimization.
Choice of Numerical Integration Method for Wind Time History Analysis of Tall...inventy
Wind tunnel tests are being performed routinely around the world for designing tall buildings but the advent of powerful computational tools will make time-history analysis for wind more common in near future. As the duration of wind storms ranges from tens of minutes to hours while earthquake durations are typically less than a three to four minutes, the choice of a time step size (Δt) for wind studies needs to be much larger both to reduce the computational time and to save disk space. As the error in any numerical solution of the equation of motion is dependent on step size (Δt), careful investigations on the choice of numerical integration methods for wind analyses are necessary. From a wide variety of integration methods available, it was decided to investigate three methods that seem appropriate for 3D-time history analysis of tall buildings for wind. These are modal time history analysis, the Hilber-Hughes-Taylor (HHT) method or α-method with α=- 0.1, and the Newmark method with β=0.25 and γ=0.5 ( i.e., trapezoidal rule). SAP2000, a common structural analysis software tool, and a 64-story structure are used to conduct all the analyses in this paper. A boundary layer wind tunnel (BLWT) pressure time history measured at 120 locations around the building envelope of a similar structure is used for the analyses. Analyses performed with both the HHT and Newmark-method considering P-delta effects show that second order effects have a considerable impact on both displacement and acceleration response. This result shows that it is necessary to account P-delta effect for wind analysis of tall buildings. As the direct integration time history analysis required very large computation times and very large computer physical memory for a wind duration of hours, a modal analysis with reduced stiffness is considered as a good alternative. For that purpose, a non-linear static analysis of the structure with a load combination of 1.0D + 1.0L is performed in SAP2000 and the reduced stiffness of the structure after the analysis is used to conduct an eigenvalue analysis to extract the mode shapes and frequencies of this structure. Then the first 20- modes are used to perform a modal time history analysis for wind load. The result shows that the responses from modal analysis with “20-mode (reduced stiffness)” are comparable with that from the P-Δ analyses of Newmark-method
Impacts of Demand Side Management on System Reliability Evaluationinventy
Electricity demand in Saudi Arabia is steadily increasing as electrical loads grows at a rate of about 7% per year, this represents a high rate by all standards, and largely due to population growth, as well as due to government subsidies which may lead to prices much lower than actual production cost. This growth represents a challenge that requires Saudi Electricity Company (SEC) to invest huge amounts of money every year, for the construction of additional generation capacity along with the reinforcement of transmission network to meet the consumption growth.Also the demand varies frequently throughout the day, causing a waste of a large part of the energy. SEC believes the optimum solution lies in altering the load shape in order to have a better balance between customer’s consumption and SEC’s generation, This paper describes the method for improving the power system reliability by shifting the portion of peak load to off-peak periods This load management scheme can be achieved by lifting the generation during off peak periods and utilizing the stored energy during peak periods. A hybrid set up involving solar and wind energy along with batteries can also be used to store energy and utilize it during peak periods.
Reliability Evaluation of Riyadh System Incorporating Renewable Generationinventy
In this paper, the experience of Saudi Electricity Company (SEC) in analyzing the generation adequacy for Year 2013 is presented. This analysis is conducted by calculating several reliability indices for Riyadh system hourly load during all four seasonal periods. The reliability indices are gauged against the international utility practice. SEC also plans to introduce renewable energy into the network in order to secure the environmental standards and reduce fuel costs of conventional generation. Thus, the reliability improvement due to different integration levels of Solar and Wind generating sources has also been investigated. The capacity value provided by these variable renewable energy sources (VERs) to reliably meet the system load has been calculated using effective load carrying capability (ELCC) technique with a loss of load expectancy metric.

The capacitors are increasingly being used as energy storage devicesin various power systems. The scientists of the world are tryingto maximize the electrical capacity of the supercapacitors. To achieve this purpose, numerous method sare used: the surface activation of electrodes, the surface etching using the electronbeam, the electrode etching with variousgasplasma, etc. The purpose of this work is toresearch how the properties of carbon electrodes depend on the plasma parameters at whichtheywere formed. The largest surface area ofcarbonelectrodeof47.25m2 /gis obtainedat 15 ofAr/C2H2gasratio. Meanwhile, theSEMimages show that the disruption of structures with low bond energies and the formation of new onesare taking place when the carbon electrodes are etched at acetylene plasma and placed on carbon electrode. The measurements of capacitance showthat capacitors with affectedelectrodes have about10-15% highercapacity than those not treated with acetyleneplasma.
Experimental Investigation of Mini Cooler cum Freezerinventy
In general cases the refrigerator could be converted into an air conditioner by attaching a fan. Thus a cooler as well as freezer is obtained in a single set up. The freezer can be converted to an air conditioner when the outside air is allowed to flow beside the cooling coil and is forced outside by an exhaust fan. In this case a mini scale cooler cum freezer using R134a as refrigerant was fabricated and tested In our mini project work we had designed, fabricated and experimentally analysed a mini cooler cum freezer. From the observations and calculations, the results of mini cooler cum freezer are obtained and are compared.

Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

ABSTRACT : Web application today are become more rich and complex. For building such application
developers are using Ajax and Web 2.0 technologies. This powerful technologies offer advanced features for
building user-friendly and highly interactive web applications that are providing quality end-user experience.
Deploying web application is a challenge both in assuring that the functionality will be maintained and in
guaranteeing that the functionality will be delivered with an acceptable performance. Performance problems
can bring all kind of undesired consequences. For web applications especially in an e-commerce situation,
performance testing is crucial. Performance testing is a type of testing that is performed, from one perspective,
to determine how fast some abstract of a system performs under a particular workload.
In this paper we discuss general concepts, practices and tools that lie at the core of performance testing web
applications. Performance analysis tools from the open-source can be used to achieve effective web application
performance tests. A case study will be given to demonstrate these tools used in a Ajax web application.
In this paper we conclude that performance tools helps software developer to find out bottleneck in
performance of the system as well as to choose a good platform for designing web application.
KEYWORDS : performance, test, tools, web application
I. INTRODUCTION
From last two decades the internet has became a house hold source of information, education, sales,
marketing, advertising etc. Today‟s web applications are also more complex than ever before. Web applications
not only offer us new types of applications, but also provide an entirely new way to set up software applications
to the users. Web applications use a number of languages, technologies, and programming models to implement
highly interactive applications. Web applications are developed today powerful tools and technologies such
Ajax and Web 2.0 offering advanced features for building user-friendly and highly interactive applications
providing quality end-user experience. As the modern Web applications are complicated, interactive programs
with complex GUIs and numerous back-end software components, the analyzing, modeling and testing these
applications present a number of new challenges to software developers.As web applications become more and
more useful and complex, so the need for performance testing is increasing. For Web applications especially in
an e-commerce situation, performance testing is crucial. Users expect high performance from a web application.
The performance of a web application depends on many factors including the network, the end systems, the
application and most importantly the end user.Web application performance testing is an emerging and
important field of software engineering. Performance testing includes monitoring and recording performance
levels during regular, low and high stress loads. Performance analysis tools from the open-source such as
YSlow and Firebug can be used to achieve effective web application performance tests. This paper begins by
present a view of Web 2.0 and Ajax technologies. In section 3 we discuss performance importance, to continue
with results in Section 4. We conclude this study in Section 5.
II. WEB 2.0 AND AJAX APPLICATIONS
Web 2.0 is revolutionizing the way how end-users interact with Web applications, that are becoming
richer and richer in design and content and at the same time good user experience has become the most desirable
attribute. Instead of using many different pages and server callbacks to deliver content, Web 2.0 technologies
such as Ajax enable Web sites to deliver content in real-time to Web clients while the end-user remains on the
same web page. Ajax [1] is short for Asynchronous JavaScript and XML, is a web development technique for
creating interactive web applications. In Ajax web applications rich functionality and prompt responsiveness to
user actions are priorities in their design and implementation. Ajax is a technology that enables better
performance and user experience for web applications. In AJAX applications, the state of the user interface is
determined dynamically, through event-driven changes in the browser‟s DOM that are only visible after
executing the corresponding JavaScript code. Ajax is really several familiar technologies, which are bundled
together in powerful new ways [2], including Document Object Model (DOM), Cascading Style Sheets (CSS),
47
2. Analyzing And Testing Web Application…
Dynamic Hypertext Markup Language (DHTML), Extensible Markup Language (XML) and JavaScript. DOM
represents the structure of XML and HTML documents, and DOM APIs provide a way for JavaScript to handle
the returned document from server and update the displayed page. DTHML and CSS are adopted to create the
interactive and dynamic web pages. XML is for data manipulation and conversion. JavaScript is the client-side
script for dynamically caching and displaying information that has been received using XML. The
XMLHttpRequest object in JavaScript is utilized to perform asynchronous interaction with the backend server
via standard HTTP GET/POST requests. Ajax allows for HTTP requests to be dispatched asynchronously with
JavaScript code, without reloading the entire HTML page along with all of its referenced resources. Ajax greatly
improves frontend performance, because it reduces the total number of HTTP requests.
III. WEB APPLICATION PERFORMANCE TESTING
The performance [3] of a web application depends on many factors including the network, the end
systems, the application and most importantly the end user. If an application identifies end-users by some form
of login procedure then a concurrency goal is highly desirable. By definition, this is the largest number of
concurrent application users that the application expected to support at any given moment.Performance testing is
directly reflecting the behavior of the complete website. Visitors expect the fast response within a short period
of time. Web performance testing [4] aim at providing a measure of the actual performances of a web
application, and an evaluation of performances that the application could provide, following a change of load;
identifying, moreover, possible bottlenecks and providing useful advice about how to fix problems. The aim of
web performance testing [5] is to evaluate performances of the web application and all the back-end systems
changing the load. Performance testing activity guarantees system performances according to a defined load,
identifying where response time is too high. The performance testing [6] involves monitoring and recording the
performance levels during regular and low and high stress loads.Performance testing. This type of testing
determines or validates the speed, scalability, and/or stability characteristics of the system or application under
test. Performance is concerned with achieving response times, throughput, and resource-utilization levels that
meet the performance objectives for the project or product.
Response Time: time for downloading pages and performing main transactions on the user side and of the
back-end systems side.
Performance application can be divided into three parts:
Scalability testing. Scalability concerns the website‟s ability to handle the volumes and types of activities that
can occur after launch.
Load testing. This subcategory of performance testing is focused on determining or validating performance
characteristics of the system or application under test when subjected to workloads and load volumes anticipated
during production operations.
Stress testing. This subcategory of performance testing is focused on determining or validating performance
characteristics of the system or application under test when subjected to conditions beyond those anticipated
during production operations.
In this experiment we compared two types of applications:
The first type, traditional application and the second type, Ajax application. The second application is built by
integrating components of Ajax techniques.
Both applications offer the same services and have the same interface. We have put scripts in both applications
code to test precisely the application response time, results are shown in Table 1.

IV. TESTING TOOLS
This section provides a brief introduction to the open source performance testing and analysis tools
used in the case study. The web application under test is an Ajax application. Firebug [7] is a web development
tool that facilitates the debugging, editing, and monitoring of any website's CSS, HTML, DOM, XHR, and
JavaScript.Looking at the statistics in Figure 2, were made 12 GET requests and 1POST request, with a total
response time of 2.56 seconds, and a combined page weight of 983,9 KB.
Fig. 2 Firebug network statistics for Ajax application
Firebug enables a number of web application frontend development tasks: network traffic monitoring; HTML
inspection and editing; CSS inspection, editing and visualization; JavaScript execution, debugging, logging and
profiling; DOM (Document Object Model) inspection.YSlow [8] is a Firefox add-on that integrates seamlessly
with Firebug. YSlow analyzes and grades frontend performance and suggests ways to improve performance

based on a set of rules for high performance web pages. Grading is done on a scale of A through F, where A
denotes best performance.
Fig. 3 YSlow grade „B‟ for Ajax application
As shown in the Fig. 3, our web pages received a grade B, scoring 80 out of 100 points.
V. CONCLUSION
Ajax web based applications are more complex compare to the classic web applications. Among many
complexities, performance testing is one of the difficult activities which need to be study more
carefully.Performance testing and analyzing tools help to evaluate an application under a given load. We
introduced two performance testing and analysis tools Firebug and YSlow that can be used to realize effective
web application performance tests with minimal overhead. Analysis of test results is useful for system designers
to make the best choice of the optimal platform in which to build web applications. Performance tools help
software developers to find out bottleneck in system performance, as well as performance models to help them
to develop web applications with high performance.
