Two traditional approaches exist for a task that is blocked on a global resource; a task either performs a non-preemptive busy wait, i.e., spins, or suspends and releases the processor. Previously, we have shown that both approaches can be viewed as spinning either at the highest priority (HP) or at the lowest priority on the processor (LP), respectively. Based on this view, previously we have ...

Providing efficient access to XML documents becomes crucial in XML database systems. More and more concurrency control protocols for XML database systems were proposed in the past few years. Being an important language for addressing data in XML documents, XPath expressions are the basis of several query languages, such as XQurey and XSLT. In this paper, we propose a lock-based concurrency cont...

Storing, querying, and updating XML documents in multi-user environments requires data processing guarded by a transactional context to assure the well-known ACID properties, particularly with regard to isolate concurrent transactions. In this paper, we introduce the taDOM tree, an extended data model which allows finegrained lock acquisition for XML documents. For this reason, we design a tail...

Internet of Things (IoT) has become a phenomenon in many researchers. A smart digital automated system based on IoT plays major role which helps reducing human work by applying interaction technology daily life. This research introduces the Smart Door Lock where smartphone uses Wireless Fidelity (Wi-Fi) to activate door lock. By using Android software, will automatically lock within specific ra...

The fatigue growth of multiple cracks, of arbitrary lengths, emanating from a row of fastener holes in a bonded, riveted, lap joint in a pressurized aircraft fuselage is studied. The effects of residual stresses due to a rivet misfit, and of plastic deformation near the hole, are included. A Schwartz Neumann alternating method which uses the analytical solution for a row of multiple colinear cr...
