No full textOn Service-Oriented Architectures for Mobile and Internet Applications
No full textService-oriented architectures have been around for long now, but the surge in the Smartphone and tablet market and the wide availability of fast mobile networks now cast new light on service-oriented architectures. The diversity of mobile platforms demand application abstraction. Such abstraction can be made possible by adapting a service-oriented architecture where the bulk of the business logic is hosted as a service. A service-oriented architecture may appear to be unsuitable when mobile networks are slow or unreliable. However, most modern mobile networks are reliable and reasonably fast, and thus applications employing a service-oriented architecture do not necessarily reduce user experience when compared to native, device-hosted applications. This paper reviews some of the technological advantages and challenges arising from the use of a service-oriented architecture for mobile and Internet applications.http://www.thinkmind.org/index.php?view=instance&instance=ICNS+201

Impact of channel constrictions on the formation of multiple tunnel junctions in heavily-doped silicon single electron transistors
No full textThis paper reports the study of the uncontrolled multiple tunnel junctions (MTJs) induced by the random dopants in heavily doped silicon single electron transistors (SETs). The SETs are fabricated by making dual lateral constrictions in the narrow doped silicon channel formed on a silicon on insulator substrate. The doped SETs with relatively long constriction regions invariably exhibit the MTJ characteristics. The influence of the MTJs is suppressed by tuning the Fermi level in the constriction region. Finally, we show that the formation of uncontrolled MTJs can be avoided by making extremely sharp constriction

Stochastic Coulomb blockade in coupled asymmetric silicon dots formed by pattern-dependent oxidation
No full textThis paper reports the observation of stochastic Coulomb blockade for the coupled silicon dots. The device was fabricated from the highly doped dual recess structured silicon channel by means of stress induced pattern-dependent oxidation. Sparsely placed Coulomb oscillation characteristics were observed from the transport characteristics at a low temperature and these irregularities decreased linearly as temperature increased. These characteristics were interpreted as the stochastic Coulomb blockade effect, which occurs due to the mismatch between individual dots in the energy spectrum ladder of the serially connected dot
