In recent years, IP networks have become increasingly complex and the range of network applications has widened. As a result, the need for experimental evaluation of application performance has ...increased. We introduce a measurement-based performance evaluation method that combines a function to generate various patterns of application traffic with one to measure end-to-end network performance at the application level. For our method, we also propose traffic models of various applications that can represent the characteristics of these applications, for example, the burstiness of traffic. This method has already been implemented as a benchmarking tool on UNIX operating systems. PUBLICATION ABSTRACT
A 56-year-old male presented with a prolactin-secreting pituitary adenoma who suffered pituitary apoplexy associated with intracerebral hemorrhage of the caudate head and putamen. The centers of both ...the intratumoral hematoma and intracerebral hemorrhage appeared as hyperintense on T_1 -weighted and T_2 -weighted magnetic resonance imaging, indicating the subacute stage and probably similar timing of onset. The tumor was treated surgically 6 weeks after the onset. The causative factor for the apoplexy remains unclear.
