To achieve high-performance on multicore systems, sharedmemory parallel languages must efficiently implement atomic operations. The commonly used and studied paradigms for atomici...
In the multimedia field, metadata are becoming increasingly important for efficiently cataloguing the abundant flood of information. (Metadata are data on information structure...
Strong Eternity Service is a safe and very reliable storage for data of high importance. We show how to establish persistent pseudonyms in a totally anonymous environment and how t...
Experiments in High Energy Physics (HEP) generate tremendous amounts of data. For example, the accelerator at CERN is expected to generate petabytes per year. New HEP discoveries ...
