The new all-optical system, using terahertz (THz) wave technology, has great potential for homeland security and military uses because it can “see through”…
Building has been taking place for several weeks behind the HCL chemistry building on the Science City Campus, but downwards for once, not upwards. The first…
The two areas of online transaction processing (OLTP) and online analytical processing (OLAP) present different challenges for database architectures. We present an efficient hybrid system, called HyPer, that can handle both OLTP
and OLAP simultaneously with unprecedented high transaction rates as high as several 100000 per second and ultra-low OLAP query response times of as low as 10 ms. Moreover one can creates transaction consistent backup archives of the entire database.
Specific properties of metal such as elasticity, strength and anisotropy are usually gained from uni-axial experiments which simplify the material stress. But…
