Failures of any type are common in current datacenters, partly due to the higher scales of the data stored. As data scales up, its availability becomes more complex, while different availability levels per application or per data item may be required. In t ...
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 ...
We study erasure-coded atomic register implementations in an asynchronous crash-recovery model. Erasure coding provides a cheap and space-efficient way to tolerate failures in a distributed system. This paper presents ORCAS, Optimistic eRasure-Coded Atomic ...
Challenges in nanotechnology today involve controlling dimensions, inter-particle spacing, surface coverage and behavior/response of functional nanostructures. Creating or placing nanostructures on surfaces is important for applications like data storage, ...
Our component-based parametrisable font system is a newly developed font description and reproduction technology. It incorporates for each basic character shape a software method responsible for the synthesis of an instance of that character. A given font ...
Although identity-based cryptography offers a number of functional advantages over conventional public key methods, the computational costs are significantly greater. The dominant part of this cost is the Tate pairing, which, in characteristic three, is be ...

Employing a combined filtration and pptn. method, the endotoxin concn. in sodium alginate (SA) and sodium cellulose sulfate (SCS) was reduced to a value of 200 EU/g polymer. This is one-tenth of the regulatory threshold calcd., e.g., for an appropriate bio ...
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 ...
Future Systems on Chips (SoCs) will integrate a large number of processor and storage cores onto a single chip and require Networks on Chip (NoC) to support the heavy communication demands of the system. The individual components of the SoCs will be hetero ...
The main objective of this paper is to present a flexible annotation management framework for a multimedia database system, applied to meeting recordings. Presented research and development activities are carried out within the scope of the IM2 project in ...
