  1. 1. On some Control Problems for Queues

    Author : Bengt Bengtsson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Queues; Control problems;

    Abstract : This thesis consists of three parts. In the first one, optimal policies are constructed for some singe-line queueing situations. The second part deals with finite-state Markovian decision processes, and in the third part the practical modelling of a more complex problem is discussed and exemplified. READ MORE

  2. 2. Trees, Queues and Alcohols

    Author : Per Sillrén; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Raman Scattering; Neutron Diffraction; Alcohols; EPSR; Quasi Elastic Neutron Scattering; Neutron Spin Echo; Monte Carlo Simulation; Hydrogen Bonded Liquids;

    Abstract : Hydrogen bonded (H-bonded) materials, such as water, alcohols, sugars, and even DNA, are extremely important for biology, as well as chemical industry. Alcohols are used as solvents in paints, in perfumes, as cleaners, anti-freezers, or as an alternative to petrol in combustion engines. READ MORE

  3. 3. Behind the counter. Female inroads, obstacles and careers in the Swedish commercial bank sector, 1885-1937

    Author : Kajsa Holmberg; Ekonomisk-historiska institutionen; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; occupational feminisation; commercial banks; sex-typing; gender; job queues; labour queues;

    Abstract : This study investigates the feminisation of the Swedish commercial bank sector between 1885 and 1937, during which time the female labour share increased from 10 to 27 per cent. More specifically, it is examined why the banks hired women, and why they did not hire women to an even greater extent. READ MORE

  5. 5. Dynamic Adaptations of Synchronization Granularity in Concurrent Data Structures

    Author : Kjell Winblad; Konstantinos Sagonas; Erez Petrank; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; concurrent data structures; contention adapting; range queries; lock-freedom; adaptivity; linearizability; ordered sets; maps; key-value stores; concurrent priority queues; relaxed concurrent data structures; locks; delegation locking; Computer Science; Datavetenskap;

    Abstract : The multicore revolution means that programmers have many cores at their disposal in everything from phones to large server systems. Concurrent data structures are needed to make good use of all the cores. Designing a concurrent data structure that performs well across many different scenarios is a difficult task. READ MORE
