...where thieves break in and steal.” – Matthew 6:19 Actually, most people do store up their treasures on Earth, so much so in fact, that quite a few people are filling up their own treasure chests by renting out storage space. Self-Storage is an industry in which storage space is rented out to tenants, usually on a monthly basis. The storage space is usually in the form of a room, container or locker. Access to the space is usually secured by the tenant’s own lock and key. Clients include individuals, who usually store household goods, as well as businesses, which use the facilities for storing inventory or archives. As of 2009, there was approximately 2.3 billion square feet of rentable storage space in the US. The first modern self-storage facilities appeared in the US in the 1960s. The self-storage business was meant to provide individuals with space to deal with “life events”: moving, marriage, divorce etc. American workers have always been quite mobile, and the end of the 20th century, with its increasing divorce rates, and rush of transitions to 2nd or 3rd homes, saw a significant increase in the number of life events. However, by the end of the 1990s, demand was growing at a faster rate than explained by these factors. From 2000 to 2005, the number of self-storage facilities almost doubled, with 3000 new facilities built each year. Since the 1990s, demand was increasingly driven by the accumulation of goods, fuelled in part by increasing real disposable income. Individuals...

...Memory is how we can remember all the things that we experience in day-to-day life. Memory can be broken down into 3 basic processes; Encoding: the initial recording of information as a memory. Storage: when information is saved for future use. Retrieval: when the brain recalls information that has been saved. This process happens all within a matter of seconds. There are 3 different types of memory; sensory, short-term and long-term. Sensory memory is remembering how a place smelled or sounded. This form of memory typically lasts about 1 second. Short-term memory stores things that you only need to remember for a brief period of time. For example; remembering your grocery list when you go shopping. This is something you only remember for a few hours, however some short-term memories only last 15-20 seconds. The third type of memory is long-term memory, which is one of the most complicated parts of memory. Long-term memory can be broken down into 5 parts; general long-term, declarative, procedural, semantic and episodic....

...the target i.e. server side data storage center. In this case of Deduplication the client is not modified and is totally not knowing or aware of any Deduplication mechanism happening at the target side. Target-based Deduplication accomplished by the backup servers and hardware appliances at target which having ability to perform and handle those Deduplication activities. That means there is no overhead on the client or server being backed up. Thus the result of this kind of technology i.e. target based Deduplication drastically raise the storage utilization, but at the same time it fails to meet bandwidth saving perspectives. 3.2.2. Source based de-duplication In this scenario Deduplication performed on client side i.e. before it transmitted By processing the data before transmitting we can reduce the transmitted amount of data and therefore it reduces the network bandwidth and this less bandwidth is required for the backup software. Deduplication on source side uses the engine at client side which checks for the duplication against the Deduplication index which is located on the backup server. This is done with the help of the backup agent who is aware of the Deduplication which is located at the client side and who is responsible for backs up only unique data or blocks. And those unique blocks of data will be transmitted to the disk. The result of this kind of technology i.e. source based Deduplication improves bandwidth as well as the storage utilization. ...

...CLA IA HL Psychology Does Schema Theory effect memory encoding? Introduction: Memory can be defined as the process of reproducing and recalling information from something that has been learned before. (W. Matlin) There are two main types of memory storages, short term storage and long term memory storage. Short term memory is usually described as the recollection of information that happened recently, while long term memory is something that can retain and stay in your brain for long periods of times. (Zimmermann, 2014) Schemas are mental saving devices, they are plans for action and frameworks for thinking. Schemas originally are used and serve as a window through which we perceive the way the world is. They are hierarchies of knowledge and provide us with all sort of different information. They allow us to navigate ourselves in a complex world through this pre-existing rules and guides for action and thought. (Bryan). A study conducted by (Bartlett, 1932) “War of the Ghosts” was aimed to investigate the effects of schemas on human memory. In the method the participants were asked to read a story about an American tale where people were hunting seals in Canoes. The participants’ memory was tested and investigated by repeated reproduction and serial reproduction. In serial reproduction, the first participant would read the original story and then rewrite what they remember about it. The first participant’s reproduction would then be read by the second participant...

...Setting up a Home Network Srikanth Gunda Wilmington University 1. Overview of wireless networking technology There are various types of wireless network which are wireless Local Area Network (WLAN), Wireless personal Area Network (WPAN), Wireless mesh Network. Wireless networks are convenient in home network, small schools and offices. Wireless network are basically suitable to interconnect cell phones and computers, printers, TVs which helps in easy communication. Wireless network uses radio frequency rather than wire to communicate. Clients unite their gadgets which helps to communicate Wireless access points. The speed is relative to distance between the transmitter and receiver due to the utilization of radio frequency; consequently, the closer the client is to the transmitter the more the speed is. 2. Advantages of wireless networking technology Wireless networking technology gives various benefits to the household and office use, some of these benefits are below:- I. Most of the working class families have few computers which are arranged in various rooms. It is expensive, and time-consuming to introduce cables to a network that are situated in rooms which helps them to impart the broadband communication hence a wireless router resolves the issue. II. As the clients stay in the coverage of the signal, he/she can move their gadgets easily around the house.

...Data Communication Theory What is dotted decimal notation on IPv4 addresses? Answer: It is presentation form for the numerical data that consists of a string of decimal numbers each pair is separated by a dot. The common use is to write the numbers in the octet group based 10 (decimal) numbers separated by dots. In computer networking, Internet Protocol Version 4 addresses are commonly written using quad-dotted notation of four decimal integers, ranging from 0 to 255 each. Chapter 6- Explain the Peer-to Peer network and what are its advantages? Answer – In Peer to Peer network, network hosts don’t have a specific role. They provide specific services and also consume network services. We have hosts that will fulfill a variety of different roles, like one computer can have printer connected to it which is then shared on to the network. Another computer can have a large hard drive attached to it and everyone else is allowed to use the hard drive for data storage, modification etc. In Such network we have hosts that both provide and consume network services. In essence they function both as a Client and as a Server at the same time. The advantage of Peer to Peer network is the ease of installation. We can share our resources on the network and everyone can share the benefits. On the other hand is not very scalable. The Peer-to-peer network are useful only for a network with fewer computers and are suitable for applications that do not require a high level of...
