  2. 1. Synchronization and consistency in concurrent systems

    Author : Anders Gidenstam; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; event ordering; lock-free; memory management; time-stamping system; plausible clocks; non-blocking; logical clocks; synchronization;

    Abstract : This thesis investigates aspects of synchronization and coordination in concurrent systems. In such systems synchronization and coordination are highly important as they form a basis for how a set of entities can collaborate to solve a task. READ MORE

  4. 2. Algorithms for synchronization and consistency in concurrent system services

    Author : Anders Gidenstam; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; threading; plausible clocks; memory management; event ordering; lock-free; optimistic causal order; nonblocking; group communication; synchronization; memory reclamation; time stamping system; logical clocks; atomic registers.;

    Abstract : Synchronization, consistency and scalability are important issues in the design of concurrent computer system services. In this thesis we study the application of optimistic and scalable methods in concurrent system services. READ MORE

  5. 3. Clocks, DBMs and States in Timed Systems

    Author : Johan Bengtsson; Joost-Pieter Katoen; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Information technology; Informationsteknik; Datavetenskap; Computer Science;

    Abstract : Today, computers are used to control various technical systems in our society. In many cases, time plays a crucial role in the operation of computers embedded in such systems. This thesis is about techniques and tools for the analysis of timing behaviours of computer systems. READ MORE

  6. 4. Phylogeny and macroevolution in Isoetes (Isoetales)

    Author : Eva Larsén; Catarina Rydin; Niklas Wikström; Ove Eriksson; Richard Bateman; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Bayesian inference; biogeography; Cenozoic; genomic data; fossil calibration; Isoetes; Isoetales; megaspore morphology; Mesozoic; molecular clocks; node ages; phylogeny; rhizomorphic lycopsids; scanning electron microscopy; Plant Systematics; växtsystematik;

    Abstract : This thesis has focused on the evolutionary history of Isoetes (Isoetales, Lycopsida), its phylogeny, megaspore morphology and evolutionary path through deep time. With a broadened sampling of species to include more of the worldwide diversity of the genus compared to previous work an unexpected sister to the rest of the genus was found. READ MORE

  7. 5. Robustness Analysis of Intracellular Oscillators with Application to the Circadian Clock

    Author : Camilla Trané; Elling W. Jacobsen; Eric Bullinger; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Systems Biology; Automatic control; Reglerteknik;

    Abstract : Periodic oscillations underlie many intracellular functions, such as circadian time keeping, cell cycle control and locomotor pattern generation in nerve cells. These intracellular oscillations are generated in intricate biochemical reaction networks involving genes, proteins and other biochemical components. READ MORE
