Tightening force and torque of nonlocking screws in a reverse shoulder prosthesis

Dominique Pioletti, Alexandre Terrier, Alain Farron, Francesco Merlini, Miguel Gortchacow, Stephanie Kochbeck

Background. Reversed shoulder arthroplasty is an accepted treatment for glenohumeral arthritis associated to rotator cuff deficiency. For most reversed shoulder prostheses, the baseplate of the glenoid component is uncemented and its primary stability is p ...

Scala actors: Unifying thread-based and event-based programming

Martin Odersky, Philipp Haller

There is an impedance mismatch between message-passing concurrency and virtual machines, such as the JVM. VMs usually map their threads to heavyweight OS processes. Without a lightweight process abstraction, users are often forced to write parts of concurr ...

Strength of the baseplate fixation of a reversed shoulder prosthesis

Stephanie Kochbeck

A reversed shoulder prosthesis is the general treatment of glenohumeral arthritis and concomitant rotator cuff arthropathy. However, failure due to loosening of the components remains a concern. The purpose of this study was to examine the forces that occu ...

Actors that Unify Threads and Events

Martin Odersky, Philipp Haller

In practice, concurrent programming systems based on message passing are often instantiations of the actor model. A popular implementation of this form of concurrency is the Erlang programming language. Erlang supports massively concurrent systems such as ...

Dynamic Capacity-Speed Tradeoffs in SMT Processor Caches

Caches are designed to provide the best tradeoff between access speed and capacity for a set of target applications. Unfortunately, different applications, and even different phases within the same application, may require a different capacity-speed tradeo ...
