FRAGMENTAL PROXY CACHEING

In Fragmental proxy caching, we address the problem of efficiently streaming a set of heterogeneous videos from a remote server through a proxy to multiple asynchronous clients so that they can experience playback with low startup delays. We develop a technique to analytically determine the optimal proxy prefix cache allocation to the videos that minimizes the aggregate network bandwidth cost. We integrate proxy caching with traditional serverbased reactive transmission schemes such as batching, patching and stream merging to develop a set of proxy-assisted delivery schemes. We quantitatively explore the impact of the choice of transmission scheme, cache allocation policy, proxy cache size, and availability of unicast versus multicast capability, on the resultant transmission cost. Our evaluations show that even a relatively small prefix cache is sufficient to realize substantial savings in transmission cost. We find that carefully designed proxy-assisted reactive transmission schemes can produce significant cost savings even in predominantly unicast environments such as the Internet

ROBOT FILM REVIEW

The latest Bollywood sci fi film comes with all the hype we’ve come to expect:

- 120 crore budget…biggest budget ever! (that’s about US$24 million)

- overseas special effects people!

- a world record is broken

The movie in question is called ENDHIRAN ( THE ROBOT) and it’s another Bollywood sci-fi fest. Shooting has even started already, with a musical number set in Peru going before the cameras first., an inert wannabe-sci-fi mess that just kind of lay there and gasped for air. This time we’re promised sheer, off-the-wall, wigged-out freakiness. Why? Because:

- the director is S. Shankar, . and action in the film. Ching Siu-tung was lured to Bollywood for KRRISH, the Hrithik-is-a-superhero flick, and now it’s Yuen’s turn.

- the movie stars Superstar Rajnikanth, Aishwarya Rai, long considered one of the world’s most beautiful women and a pretty fine actress to boot.

UNFORGETABLE MOVEMENT IN LIFE

The unforgettable days in my life is college days which is an enjoyable movement in my life ever. In first semester we used to roam as a gang and we used to bunk the college together. we used to make some noise from the back bench and one sir named milton bose who is a extreme of a comedian used to scold us always and we laugh while he scold us. Then he asked us to go out a single person but we will go in a group, he will get very tensed and complain to the hod of the department. After first semester we all get seperated and we used to meet in mess. It take some time to mingle with new friends in my department. After 1st year we become very close as first semester. we used to play cards in class rooms with the permissin of the staff as thery dono to teach as they are not experenced. I will not forget 2 moments in life one is the mother fucking bastard venkatesh who scold me and my friend selva very much and another one is my project met(x) he is also a mother fucker who try to dominate me and as a result i got the lowest mark in project. in my life i dont want to meet them again, incase i met them i'll not let them without giving a single hit.

AEGAN STORY

Leave your logical mind at home, and don’t ask doubts regarding story and plotline because none exists! It is Diwali time, and if you want to have a crackling time at the movies, then Aegan is fun unlimited (till the interval).

The Story- Shiva (Ajit) is a dare devil cop, whose introduction scene is in Hong Kong, where he single handedly kills a mafia chief, and proves as his father the commissioner Karthik (Nassar) says- “He is a one-man army, who trusts only his gun”

Now he is on a different mission- he has to fob off the international criminal John Chinnapa (Suman), who is trying to kill his former aide Ram Prasad (Devan), who has turned police approver. Ram is in hiding somewhere in Ooty where his daughter Priya (Piaa) is studying in a co-ed college. Shiva’s new assignment is to go undercover as a student to the college to protect Priya and also a lead to her father’s whereabouts.

Shiva joins the college where you have a funny principal (Jayaram) and a peon (Sathyan) and host of students including Priya’s lover Narain (Navdeep), who turns out to be our hero’s foster brother!

The best scene in the film is when Ajit meets Nayan for the first time and the way he bursts out into his favourite song Unne Paartha Pinpu Naan…(Kathal Mannan) ! It is a really a scream and a genuine gut-buster.

There are few other outrageous over-the-top depiction of Tamil film stereotypes like Jayaram, Cochin Haneefa and Sriman’s comedy scenes. There is some kind of chemistry between Ajit and Nayan in some stupid moments, which make you chuckle. Raju Sundaram has concentrated only on these one-liners, the silver lining in the film.Her make-up

In Main Hoon Na Farah Khan made Shah Rukh Khan lampoon conventional notions of macho heroism, but in Aegan, Raju strictly adheres to Ajit’s larger than life image. There are four long drawn out, well choreographed fight scenes where the hero fights a dozen baddies and comes out unscathed.

The music of Yuvan is ok, thanks to the picturisation of Raju Sundaram. The camera of debutant Arjunjena is eye-catching. Ajit is at his best but looks plump and stiff in some scenes where he need to be relaxed and natural (The Billa hang-over?)

Nayanthara looks perfect as Mallika, a role that fits her like a glove. Her make-up and costumes, especially the chiffon sarees and halter-neck blouses, rock. Piaa is promising. Jayaram as Principal and Haneefa as Ajit’s side-kick are a riot. But the same cannot be said about Suman who looks like a caricature with a weird wig

AAMIR KHAN'S GHAJINI

Aamir khan’s much awaited Ghajini hindi movie to release on December 25 2008. AS per aamir the Ghajini release date should be December 25, 2008, if everything goes well.

It is reported in the media that Aamir khan is not happy with his work in Ghajini hindi movie. It is also reported that Aamir khan is likely to re-shoot the Gajini hindi film.

Ghajini hindi film is directed by A Murugadoss and is a remake of Tamil film Gajini in which Surya played the main role. As per media reports, Murugadoss is ready to re-shoot the some scenes suggested by Aamir Khan. But Aamir khan is busy with his new film with Kareena Kapoor - 3 Idiots.So it may take another month to finish the Aamir Ghajini film and we hope it will be released on December 25, as stated by Aamir Khan

session layer

The fifth layer of the OSI Reference Model is the session layer. The session layer is
responsible for initiating the setup and teardown of connections. To perform these
functions, the session layer must determine whether data stays local to a computer
alternatively, must be obtained or sent to a remote networking component. In the latter case,
the session layer initiates the connection.
The session layer is also responsible for differentiating among multiple network connections, ensuring that data is sent across the correct connection as well as taking data from a connection and forwarding it to the correct local application. The actual mechanics of this process, however, are implemented at the transport layer. To set up connections or tear down connections,
the session layer communicates with the transport layer. Remote Procedure Calls
(RPCs) are an example of a TCP/IP session protocol; the Network File System
(NFS), which uses RPCs, is another example of a protocol at this layer. The
session layer is also responsible for error reporting of any issues at the application,
presentation, and session layers and for implementing any type of class of service
(CoS) to give preference to some types of traffic or connections over others.

FILTER UNWANTED CONTENT IN ORKUT

Google’s social networking site Orkut has introduced what it describes as a “safety filter” that automatically filters out adult content such as sexually suggestive phrases or images. The filter has been introduced in India, and is turned on by default for users in the country. Google plans to introduce it in other countries in the next few weeks, said Rahul Kulkarni, product manager at Google India, on Thursday. The new filter screens for content that may not violate Orkut’s community standards for objectionable content, but which users may not want to see, Kulkarni said.
Orkut is offering the filter as there is always a gray area as to what is considered as unacceptable adult content, which will likely vary from country to country or from one household to another, Kulkarni said. Users have the option to turn off the filter, Kulkarni added. With the “Safety Filter” on, if users come across content such as photos or text that they may find unacceptable, they will receive a warning and the specific content will be replaced by special icons, according to a post on Wednesday on the Orkut blog (http://en.blog.orkut.com/) . No filter is fully accurate, so if users see a page that they think should be blocked, they have to flag it as usual and let Orkut know, according to the blog.
Orkut has been criticized and even sued in court in India not so much for sexually explicit content, but for political content, including communities on the site that criticize the country or some of its politicians. The filter in Orkut is however oriented to filtering out sexual content and not political content. Filtering political content is far more difficult as there is always a gray area as to when the filter would come in the way of freedom of speech, Kulkarni said..

STRESSFUL LIFE CAUSE HEART PROBLEMS

There is a stressful life in each and everyones life which is cause by the bosses in the company. they become very moody in homes which causes problem.

Experts said that feeling undervalued and unsupported at work can cause stress, which often fosters unhealthy behaviours, such as smoking, that can lead to heart disease.

Previous work has shown that unfair bosses can drive up their employees’ blood pressure, and persistent high blood pressure can increase heart disease risk.

For the latest study, researchers from the Karolinska Institute and Stockholm University tracked the heart health of the male employees, aged between 19 and 70 and working in the Stockholm area, over a period of nearly a decade.

During this time 74 cases of fatal and non-fatal heart attack or acute angina, or death from ischaemic heart disease, occurred.

All the participants were asked to rate the leadership style of their senior managers on competencies such as how clearly they set out goals for their staff and how good they were at communicating and giving feedback.

The staff who deemed their senior managers to be the least competent had a 25% higher risk of a serious heart problem.

And those working for what was classed as a long time - four years or more - had a 64% higher risk.

The findings held true, regardless of educational attainment, social class, income, workload, lifestyle factors, such as smoking and exercise, and other risk factors for heart disease, such as high BLOOD PRESURE.
