Background: Malnutrition continues to be a major public health problem in developing countries. The problem is very significant among infant and young children. Although malnutrition is remarkably responsible for childhood death, the contributing factors are not well studied in the study area. Therefore, this study aimed to assess dietary patterns and anthropometric status of under-five children in Arba Minch Zuria, Gamo Goffa Zone, Southern Ethiopia. Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted on child-mother-pairs in Arba Minch Zuria from February-July, 2012. Quantitative data were obtained from sample of 762 respondents by using pretested questionnaires and observational checklists. Qualitative data were collected by using in-depth interviews with tape recorder. Socio-demographic status, maternal and child characteristics, child feeding practices, anthropometry and dietary diversity were assessed. Results: Breastfeeding is considered as natural gift in this community. About 95.8 % of mothers had ever breastfed their children. More than half of mothers (57.3%) initiated breastfeeding within first hour of delivery and small number 78(10.2%) of mothers discarded colostrum. About 60.4 % of mothers exclusively breastfed thei

A Novel Approach to Improve the Processor Performance with Page Replacement Method
AbstractMemory management techniques are available in modern OS which permits the execution of a program while it is partially available in memory thus providing an illusion of very large memory to the user and freeing the user from the concern of large program size. The basic assumption used in the traditional page replacement methods were invalidated,which resulting in a revival of research area. In this paper mainly focused on the improvement of the processor performance. In order to achieve this, the number of miss conditions are tried to reduce, by using the page replacement method in the correct way. In modern operating systems mainly make use of the Least recently used (LRU) page replacement method, in which only the time parameter is make used. Here we want to use both the time stamp and the frequency parameter for handling the page replacement
