Customer Preference of Theater Ambience In Malls

The reason for this examination is to feature the different angles which prompt the inclination of multiplexes over single screen theaters. The study would be led over shopping centers crosswise over the local areas. A survey would be coasted also with a specific end goal to know the supposition of general society overall. Essential information was gathered through an organized utilizing shopping center capture strategy at shopping centers in Chennai. The shopper inclination was caught utilizing a rank request size of 1 to 5, 1 being the most favored and five being the slightest favored. Accommodation examining strategy was utilized to gather the information. An invalid speculation was built remembering different factors and factor examination strategy was utilized to test the theory. The investigation will help shopping center directors to distinguish different variables which prompt the inclination of multiplexes over single screen theaters. This research was done by empirical research method and random sampling method was used. For the purpose of the study descriptive research is used. Convenience sampling method is used in the study to collect samples. People prefer to watch movies in mall rather than other places

Hierarchical Request-Size-Aware Flash Translation Layer Based on Page-Level Mapping

Owing to the increasing Internet population, there has been an explosion in the amount of digital data generated and also an increase in data complexity. This trend is called big data paradigm. As the Internet of Things (IoT) takes center stage, the growth of data will continue to increase. Therefore, the demand for mass storage devices that have high access speed is increasing. Industry has been paying attention to flash memories that can process large amounts of data at high speed. It will be a good alternative for storing and processing ever-increasing amounts of data because of low power consumption, high shock resistance, portability and fast access speed. However, the write speed is about 10–20 times slower than the read speed in flash memory. In addition, write operations are not allowed to be performed with in-place updates. Garbage collection mechanism is proposed in order to solve the problem incurred by the not-in-place update property of write operations. However, garbage collection mechanism unavoidably causes overhead of additional internal operations, which leads to performance degradation. In this paper, to prevent performance degradation caused by garbage collection, we propose a request-size-aware flash translation layer (RSaFTL) and a hierarchical request-size-aware flash translation layer (HiRSaFTL). They are designed based on page-level address translation. In RSaFTL and HiRSaFTL, page-sized data with high temporal locality cluster into a special area called active blocks by exploiting the property of realistic traces. As a result of the experiments, RSaFTL and HiRSaFTL reduce the number of pages migrated during garbage collections by up to 17.9% and 21.3%, respectively, compared with pure page-level flash transition layer.

Acceptability of Favor Requests in the United States and Japan

In previous research, the authors showed that Japanese and Americans would rather be asked to perform a favor than to have their friend solve the problem by asking someone else or getting it done professionally. In the current research, the authors further explore the similarities and differences in Japanese and American reactions to requests for favors by examining whether (a) increasing the size of the request can increase positive feelings, (b) the perceived closeness of the relationship and appraisals of control mediate the effect of request size on feelings, and (c) the increase in positive feelings only occurs in close friendship. In Japan and to some extent the United States, being asked a larger favor made people happier than being asked a smaller favor—up to a point. However, as in the authors’ previous study, cultural differences emerged in the basic pattern and in the associated appraisals. Results are discussed in relation to the Japanese phenomenon of Amae.
