This paper presents the design and implementation of DOT, a flexible architecture for data transfer. This architecture separates content negotiation from the data transfer itself. Applications determine what data they need to send and then use a new transfer service to send it. This transfer service acts as a common interface between applications and the lower-level network layers, facilitating innovation both above and below. The transfer service frees developers from re-inventing transfer mechanisms in each new application. New transfer mechanisms, in turn, can be easily deployed without modifying existing applications.

As a result of advancements in automotive technology, today’s tire and wheel/rim fitments require special attention. By design, radial tire construction and low aspect ratios contribute to a vehicle’s ride and handling quality. Proper tire mounting, balancing and installation are critical to attaining a smooth vehicle ride. Vehicle vibration and a suspected problem tire may actually be due to an improperly balanced tire and wheel assembly or related to the mechanical condition of the vehicle. BALANCING The technical definition of balance is the uniform distribution of mass about an axis of rotation, where the center of gravity is in the same location as the center of rotation.
