This article intends to give an overview of the lexicographic scene in Estonia from the perspective of modern lexicography, i.e. e-lexicography. We have been developing our in-house Dictionary Writing System EELex for some time already. However, the modern lexicography expects more: the multifunctionality of the database, special needs of the specific user, etc. I will briefly characterise some...

The Hall-D Online Skim System (HOSS) was developed to simultaneously solve two issues for the high intensity GlueX experiment. One parallelize writing of raw data files disk in order improve bandwidth. other distribute across multiple compute nodes produce calibration \textit{skims} online. highly configurable system employs RDMA, RAM disks, and zeroMQ driven by Python store process full stream.

This book is organized according to the major periods of Japanese history – ancient (up to 794), Heian (794–1185), medieval (1185–1600), early modern or Edo (1600–1867), and modern (1868–present). Each part begins with a brief historical overview, followed by short essays on major genres, texts, and authors. A number of the traditional genres – such as waka (classical Japanese poetry), kanshi (...

In the sixteenth century, Spanish missionaries judged and ranked human intelligence and civilization by whether the people were in possession of alphabetic writing. This was an initial moment in the configuration of the colonial difference and the building of the Atlantic imaginary, which will become the imaginary of the modern/colonial world. Translation was the special tool to absorb the colo...

With the objective of contrasting performance between STREAMS and legacy approaches to system facilities, a comparison is made between the tested performance of the Linux legacy pipe implementation and the STREAMS-based pipe implementation using the Linux Fast-STREAMS package [? ]. 1 Background Pipes have a rich history in the UNIX operating system. Present on early Bell Laboratories UNIX Versi...

In DataCell, we design streaming functionalities in a modern relational database kernel which targets big data analytics. This includes exploitation of both its storage/execution engine and its optimizer infrastructure. We investigate the opportunities and challenges that arise with such a direction and we show that it carries significant advantages for modern applications in need for online an...

Whether or not steady-state topography and denudation are probable states depends on the timescale of system response to tectonic and climatic perturbations relative to the frequency of those perturbations. This paper presents analytical derivations of algebraic relations for the response time of detachment-limited fluvial bedrock channel systems both to tectonic and climatic perturbations. Det...
