A Closer Look at Concurrent Data Structures and Algorithms

In this survey article, I will present three ideas, regarding the construction of concurrent data structures and algorithms, recently published in [27, 28, 29]. The first idea is that of contention-sensitivity. A contention-sensitive data structure is a concurrent data structure in which the overhead introduced by locking is eliminated in common cases, when there is no contention, or when proce...

A ClOser lOOk

In recent years, systems of care principles have been increasingly adopted because of their potential to support efforts to improve child welfare and other human service systems in ways that lead to increased safety, permanency, and well-being for children, adolescents, and their families. However, while the systems of care approach has become more widespread, a clear understanding of what defi...

Red - Take a Closer Look

Color research has shown that red is associated with avoidance of threat (e.g., failure) or approach of reward (e.g., mating) depending on the context in which it is perceived. In the present study we explored one central cognitive process that might be involved in the context dependency of red associations. According to our theory, red is supposed to highlight the relevance (importance) of a g...
