A method for wear level-based allocation in a storage pool. At least one copy of an application is replicated in a write affinity region of a secondary server, and at least one copy of the application is replicated in a wide striping region across a cluster file system. This structural support can be used as a base for an offshore drilling platform in that the support reduces the lateral forces on the support caused by wave action. The invention further concerns transgenic plants tolerant to herbicide compounds targeting an enzyme involved in the tyrosine biosynthesis pathway, in particular an enzyme involved in the transformation of L-tyrosine prephenate, in particular an arogenate dehydrogenase enzyme. The format component includes source code for scaling the flight software variable values according to the master telemetry definition data file. The speech recognition processor utilizes an acoustic model database.
