In this study, we measure the effects of two software approaches to improving data and network performance: 1. Content optimization and compression; and 2. Optimizing network protocols. We achieve content optimization and compression by means of BoostEdge by ActivNetworks and employ the SPDY network protocol by Google to lower the round trip time for HTTP transactions. Since the data and transport layers are separate, we conclude our investigation by studying the combined effect of these two techniques on web performance. Using document mean load time as the measure, we found that with and without packet loss, both BoostEdge and SPDY …

We know trash is an enormous problem in the world since trash does not only affect just humans but it also affects living creatures in general. The biggest contributor of trash in the United States is food waste. Food waste is produced by every human and the amounts of food waste is astonishing.
