Business Transactions describe long-running operations that may span many discrete systems. This has been an area of research for many years [6],[15]. While these operations involve tasks that may or may not be transactional in the traditional sense, the business still wants many of the same Atomic, Consistent, Isolated, and Durable characteristics that we know and love. Providing ACID can be d...

Cloud storage services and NoSQL systems, which have recently found widespread adoption, typically offer only "Eventual Consistency", a rather weak guarantee covering a broad range of potential data consistency behavior. The degree of actual (in-)consistency as a service quality, however, is always unknown. To avoid cost of opportunity or actual costs, resulting data inconsistencies have to be ...

Object oriented models and methods encompass a set of techniques which have been, and will continue to be, applied in the successful production of complex software systems. The methods are based on the simple concepts of abstraction, encapsulation, classification and polymorphism. The formal verification of logical properties of such models is difficult to integrate into the traditional operati...

a comparison of buckling analysis of the nanoplate and nanocomposite plate with central square hole embedded in winkler foundation is presented in this article. in order to enhance mechanical properties of nanoplate with central cut out, carbon nano tubes (cnts) are applied as uniform distribution (ud) through thickness direction. in order to define the shape function of plate with square cut o...

BACKGROUND A fiberglass short arm cast can be used to treat a distal radial fracture, but posttraumatic edema may lead to excessive cast tightness and resultant soft-tissue injury. We sought to quantify a simulated edema-induced pressure within a fiberglass short arm cast and to determine the effectiveness of different cast-cutting methods for pressure reduction. We hypothesized that cast cutti...

This paper considers strongly continuous semigroups of operators on Banach lattices which are locally eventually positive, a property that was first investigated in the context concrete fourth-order evolution equations. We construct simple example to show typical assumptions spectrum semigroup generator considered currently literature far from necessary more general setting local eventual posit...
