One-shot Garbage Collection for In-memory OLTP through Temporality-aware Version Storage

Anastasia Ailamaki, Syed Mohammad Aunn Raza, Periklis Chrysogelos, Angelos Christos Anadiotis

Most modern in-memory online transaction processing (OLTP) engines rely on multi-version concurrency control (MVCC) to provide data consistency guarantees in the presence of conflicting data accesses. MVCC improves concurrency by generating a new version o ...

Competitive Dehydrogenation and Backbone Fragmentation of Superhydrogenated PAHs: A Laboratory Study

Eduardo Carrascosa Casado, Robert Richter

Superhydrogenated polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) have been suggested to catalyze the formation of H-2 in certain regions of space, but it remains unclear under which circumstances this mechanism is viable given the reduced carbon backbone stabilit ...

Unimolecular fragmentation and radiative cooling of isolated PAH ions: A quantitative study

Eduardo Carrascosa Casado

Time-resolved spontaneous and laser-induced unimolecular fragmentation of perylene cations (C20H12+) has been measured on timescales up to 2 s in a cryogenic electrostatic ion beam storage ring. We elaborate a quantitative model, which includes fragmentati ...

Distributed Computing with Modern Shared Memory

Mihail Igor Zablotchi

In this thesis, we revisit classic problems in shared-memory distributed computing through the lenses of (1) emerging hardware technologies and (2) changing requirements. Our contributions consist, on the one hand, in providing a better understanding of th ...

Update of inclusive cross sections of single and pairs of identified light charged hadrons

Olivier Schneider, Yiming Li, Mingkui Wang, Chao Wang, Tagir Aushev, Sun Hee Kim, Ke Huang, Donghyun Kim

We report new measurements of the production cross sections of pairs of charged pions and kaons as a function of their fractional energies using various fractional-energy definitions. Two different fractional-energy definitions were used and compared to th ...

Transverse momentum dependent production cross sections of charged pions, kaons and protons produced in inclusive e(+)e(-) annihilation at root s=10.58 GeV

Olivier Schneider, Mithilesh Nayak, Yiming Li, Mingkui Wang, Chao Wang, Tagir Aushev, Sun Hee Kim, Jun Yong Kim, Ji Hyun Kim, Donghyun Kim, Xiao Wang, Lei Li

We report measurements of the production cross sections of charged pions, kaons, and protons as a function of fractional energy, the event-shape variable called thrust, and the transverse momentum with respect to the thrust axis. These measurements access ...

Anticancer Potential of Diiron Vinyliminium Complexes

Paul Joseph Dyson, Lucinda Kate Batchelor, Silvia Schoch

Although ferrocene derivatives have attracted considerable attention as possible anticancer agents, the medicinal potential of diiron complexes has remained largely unexplored. Herein, we describe the straightforward multigram-scale synthesis and the antip ...

Object-Oriented Recovery for Non-volatile Memory

James Richard Larus, David Teksen Aksun, Nachshon Cohen

New non-volatile memory (NVM) technologies enable direct, durable storage of data in an application's heap. Durable, randomly accessible memory facilitates the construction of applications that do not lose data at system shutdown or power failure. Existing ...

Numerical analysis of fragmentation in tempered glass with parallel dynamic insertion of cohesive elements

Jean-François Molinari, Marco Vocialta, Mauro Corrado

Tempered glass panes are subjected to high eigenstresses that induce a state of compression along the surfaces and a state of tension in the inner part. Whenever a crack reaches the tensile region, it rapidly propagates and branches in all directions drive ...

3D dynamic fragmentation with parallel dynamic insertion of cohesive elements

Jean-François Molinari, Nicolas Richart, Marco Vocialta

Dynamic fragmentation is a rapid and catastrophic failure of a material. During this process, the nucleation, propagation, branching, and coalescence of cracks results in the formation of fragments. The numerical modeling of this phenomenon is challenging ...

Influence of internal impacts between fragments in dynamic brittle tensile fragmentation

Jean-François Molinari, Marco Vocialta

Dynamic fragmentation phenomena involve two important mechanisms: atomic debonding and internal impacts among formed fragments. While the former, i.e. energy dissipation due to crack propagation, has been frequently studied both theoretically and numerical ...

Online Updates on Data Warehouses via Judicious Use of Solid-State Storage

Anastasia Ailamaki, Manoussos Gavriil Athanassoulis, Radu Ioan Stoica

Data warehouses have been traditionally optimized for read-only query performance, allowing only offline updates at night, essentially trading off data freshness for performance. The need for 24x7 operations in global markets and the rise of online and oth ...

High Performance Computing Simulations of Dynamic Fragmentation in Brittle Materials

Marco Vocialta

The aim of this thesis is to investigate the mechanisms behind dynamic fragmentation. This phenomenon occurs in a material when a blast or impact loading nucleates multiple cracks, whose propagation and coalescence break the specimen into fragments. Althou ...

Governance of competition and performance in European railways: An analysis of five cases

Matthias Finger

Based on extensive qualitative research, this article analyzes the governance of competition in European railways and relates this to their performance via five case studies covering the Netherlands, France, Germany, Sweden and the UK. Even though some tre ...

A Microstructure-Based Model to Characterize Micromechanical Parameters Controlling Compressive and Tensile Failure in Crystallized Rock

Jian Zhao, Tohid Kazerani

A discrete element model is proposed to examine rock strength and failure. The model is implemented by UDEC which is developed for this purpose. The material is represented as a collection of irregular-sized deformable particles interacting at their cohesi ...

Die-Stacked DRAM Caches for Servers: Hit Ratio, Latency, or Bandwidth? Have It All with Footprint Cache

Babak Falsafi, Stavros Volos, Dorde Jevdic

Recent research advocates using large die-stacked DRAM caches to break the memory bandwidth wall. Existing DRAM cache designs fall into one of two categories — block-based and page-based. The former organize data in conventional blocks (e.g., 64B), ensurin ...

Heteroatom Nucleophile Induced C-C Fragmentations to Access Functionalized Allenes

Nicolai Cramer, Tanguy Jean Daniel Saget

The rich structural and reactivity profile of allenes render them versatile synthetic intermediates. However, application of allenes in organic chemistry is often attenuated by inconvenient methods of preparation. Herein we present an operationally simple ...

How the obscuration-zone hypothesis affects fragmentation: Illustration with the cohesive-element method

Jean-François Molinari, Sarah Levy

The problem of fragmentation prediction is at the origin of various analytical models. Among them, we focus on the ones introducing the idea of obscured zones. They assume that when a crack initiates at a defect, a stress release wave propagates away from ...

Dynamic fragmentation of ceramics, signature of defects and scaling of fragment sizes

Jean-François Molinari, Sarah Levy

Defects play a critical role in the dynamic fragmentation process of structural ceramics. Cracks initiate at seemingly random locations, propagate and coalesce to form fragments. The process is accompanied by stress release waves, whose influence is diffic ...
