In this paper, we put forward a new approach for mitigating stragglers in MapReduce, name Hummer. It starts task clones only for high-risk delaying tasks. Related experiments have been carried and results show that it can decrease the job delaying risk with fewer resources consumption. For small jobs, Hummer also improves job completion time by 48% and 10% compared to LATE and Dolly.展开更多

In this paper, a high speed camera was used to investigate the ignition kernel development, ignition probability and flame propagation along the axis of hydrogen jets, which leaked from a 3-mm-internal-diameter nozzle and were ignited by an electric spark. Experimental results indicate that for successful ignition events, the ignition delay time increases with an increase of the distance between the nozzle and the electrode. Ignitable zone of the hydrogen jets is underestimated if using the predicted hydrogen concentration along the jets centerline. The average rate of downstream flame decreases but that of the upstream flame increases with the electrode going far from the nozzle.展开更多
