SELF is a resource independent living and working environment. By on-board renewable electricity generation and storage, it accounts for all aspects of living, such as space heating and cooking as well as providing a purified rainwater supply and wastewate ...
The placement of replicas across storage nodes in a replication-based storage system is known to affect rebuild times and therefore system reliability. Earlier work has shown that, for a replication factor of two, the reliability is essentially unaffected ...
The deregulation of economies has re-created the need for regulation. From a Systems perspective, the unbundling of large monolithic industrial setups into smaller independent companies results in the dissolution of high level management structures which, ...
Replication is a widely used method to protect large- scale data storage systems from data loss when storage nodes fail. It is well known that the placement of replicas of the different data blocks across the nodes affects the time to rebuild. Several syst ...
We demonstrate the storage of 1000 holograms in a memory architecture that makes use of different wavelengths for recording and readout to reduce the grating decay while retrieving data. Bragg-mismatch problems from the use of two wavelengths are minimized ...
This report is the result of a diploma thesis of Xavier Caron, a computer science student at the Software Engineering Lab (LGL), which is part of the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Lausanne (EPFL). The LGL is currently developing an object-orient ...
This paper reports an optofluidic architecture which enables reversible trapping, detection and long term storage of spectrally multiplexed semiconductor quantum dot cocktails in electrokinetically active wells ranging in size from 200nm to 5 mu m. Here we ...
A keyword based metadata indexing and searching facility for Storage Resource Broker (SRB) is presented here. SRB is a popular data grid based storage system that provides means to store data and associate metadata information with the stored data. The met ...

For further miniaturization of magnetic data storage devices, instruments for exploring magnetic nanostructures are needed. Hall sensors provide a non invasive technique for quantitative magnetic field detection. In contrast to the highly sensitive semicon ...
This paper describes the transaction support framework OPTIMA and its implementation for Ada 95. First, a transaction model that fits concurrent programming languages is presented. Then the design of the framework is given. Applications from many different ...
