This contribution seeks to identify a few factors that have contributed to the success of a thriving discipline, and to identify threats that could put future prospects at risk. Many of these factors are not specific to magnetic resonance, and may also app ...
Exploiting the emerging reality of affordable multi-core architectures goes through providing programmers with simple abstractions that would enable them to easily turn their sequential programs into concurrent ones that expose as much parallelism as possi ...
Systemic risks and hazards have become increasingly significant features of modern industrial society of which the network industries form a vital element. The idea of systemic risk, however, is much less prominent in the network industries compared to ban ...
This paper proposes a broad review of what risk governance is about and the main deficits that often hinder effective governance of complex, uncertain or systemic risks. Working to overcome identified roadblocks to effective disaster risk management is a f ...
The key to extending the service life of a historical masonry bridge is an accurate examination of its actual performance. This paper presents a risk-based safety approach which introduces a risk matrix illustrating the risk presented by a structure as a f ...
Transactional memory (TM) is a promising paradigm for concurrent programming, in which threads of an application communicate, and synchronize their actions, via inmemory transactions. Each transaction can perform any number of operations on shared data, an ...
Composite materials are increasingly used in high volume automotive applications, usually as a replacement for assemblies of multiple metallic parts such as stamped and spot-welded steel sheets. One of the motivations is to reduce tooling and assembly cost ...
This paper presents elastic transactions, a variant of the transactional model. Upon conflict detection, an elastic transaction might drop what it did so far within a separate transaction that immediately commits, and initiate a new transaction which might ...
Transactional memory (TM) provides an intuitive and simple way of writing parallel programs. TMs execute parallel programs speculatively and deliver better performance than conventional lock based parallel programs. However, in certain scenarios when an ap ...
