... I am developing an Informed Prefetching and Caching system as part of the kernel in which it is very important that the memory assigned to hold the data does not get swapped to disk. Without any thought to swapping I used vmalloc() to assign memory to the data structures of the Informed prefetching system. ... I later realized that most probably the pages assigned using vmalloc() were getting swapped to the disk and when I referenced them, they were brought from the disk rather than memory. ...

Proposal Identi cation No.: T2961 Date Received: 2014-May-11 14:16:48 Technical Page This proposal has not been submitted before. ... At night in the absence of any other excitation mechanism the PL intensity should have a thermal amplitude level kTe, determined by the electron gas temperature Te. To the contrary Carlson found the nighttime PL over Arecibo was enhanced 3-10 times above thermal level intensities despite the absence of any known causative mechanism (e.g. Carlson et al, 1982). ...

... We present a proposed standard for data dictionaries associated with catalogs being accessed through the Astrophysics Data System (ADS) Mosaic Catalog Service. Each catalog made available for searching must have a data dictionary, which consists of a set of specified keywords describing format, content and location of data. ... There are two keywords in the Table Data Dictionary which indicate to the server software that the corresponding column contains special attributes. ...
