description: Ensuring reliability as the electrical grid morphs into the "smart grid" will require innovations in how we assess the state of the grid, for the purpose of proactive maintenance, rather than reactive maintenance; in the future, we will not only react to failures, but also try to anticipate and avoid them using predictive modeling (machine learning and data mining) techniques. To help in meeting this challenge, we present the Neutral Online Visualization-aided Autonomic evaluation framework (NOVA) for evaluating machine learning and data mining algorithms for preventive maintenance on the electrical grid. NOVA has three stages provided through a unified user interface: evaluation of input data quality, evaluation of machine learning and data mining results, and evaluation of the reliability improvement of the power grid. A prototype version of NOVA has been deployed for the power grid in New York City, and it is able to evaluate machine learning and data mining systems effectively and efficiently.
DFLOPS: A Data Flow Machine for Production Systems

Subjects: Computer science

description: Many production system machines have been proposed to speed up the execution of production system programs. Most of them are implemented based on conventional control flow model of execution which is limited by the "von Neumann bottleneck." In this paper we propose DFLOPS, a new multiprocessor data flow machine, for parallel processing of production systems. Rule programs are compiled into data flow graphs and then mapped into DFLOPS processing elements. Three levels of parallelism: Rule Level Parallelism, RHS Level Parallelism and LHS Parallelism are fully exploited to achieve high performance. The design and implementation of DFLOPS is presented in detail. The distinguishing characteristics of this proposed machine lies in its simplicity, fully-pipelined processing and fine grain parallelism. The initial results reveal that the performance of production systems is greatly improved.

description: We report low-frequency 1/f noise measurements of degenerately doped Si:P δ-layers at 4.2K. The noise was found to be over six orders of magnitude lower than that of bulk Si:P systems in the metallic regime and is one of the lowest values reported for doped semiconductors. The noise was found to be nearly independent of magnetic field at low fields, indicating negligible contribution from universal conductance fluctuations. Instead interaction of electrons with very few active structural two-level systems may explain the observed noise magnitude

description: The increasing sophistication of software attacks has created the need for increasingly finer-grained intrusion and anomaly detection systems, both at the network and the host level. We believe that the next generation of defense mechanisms will require a much more detailed dynamic analysis of application behavior than is currently done. We also note that the same type of behavior analysis is needed by the current embryonic attempts at self-healing systems. Because such mechanisms are currently perceived as too expensive in terms of their performance impact, questions relating to the feasibility and value of such analysis remain unexplored and unanswered. We present a new mechanism for profiling the behavior space of an application by analyzing all function calls made by the process, including regular functions and library calls, as well as system calls. We derive behavior from aspects of both control and data flow. We show how to build and check profiles that contain this information at the binary level -- that is, without making changes to the application's source, the operating system, or the compiler. This capability makes our system, Lugrind, applicable to a variety of software, including COTS applications. Profiles built for the applications we tested can predict behavior with 97% accuracy given a context window of 15 functions. Lugrind demonstrates the feasibility of combining binary-level behavior profiling with detection and automated repair.

description: Some machine learning applications are intended to learn properties of data sets where the correct answers are not already known to human users. It is challenging to test and debug such ML software, because there is no reliable test oracle. We describe a framework and collection of tools aimed to assist with this problem. We present our findings from using the testing framework with three implementations of an ML ranking algorithm (all of which had bugs).

This article compares the interpretive approach to the compilation approach of other structu.re editor generators. It describes some of the design and implementation decisions made and remade during this project and the lessons learned. It emphasizes the advantages and disadvantages of DOSE with respect to other structure editing systems.
Denegação: uma especificidade de negação polêmica? [orig.] / Denegation, a type of polemic negation?

description: [In English below.] (I) Para Frege ([1919/]1984), o ‘ato de negar’ — constituído por um ‘ato de julgar’ e por uma ‘negação’ — precisa de uma pessoa. (II) Para Ducrot (1973), a ‘negação polêmica’ implica uma ‘atitude psicológica específica’. (III) Freud ([1925/]1996), compatível ou conciliavelmente aos dois primeiros, introduz sua noção de ‘denegação’ para evidenciar adicionalmente uma contradição subjetiva sob uma asserção negativa. Tendo em conta essas formulações, faremos uma discussão pela qual se procurará verificar uma hipótese segundo a qual a denegação pode ser entendida como uma especificidade de (I) e (II), ou seja, que a denegação — para cuja captação se notará que incluir a dimensão mental do sujeito extensional é inexoravelmente necessário — é um ato de negar polemicamente específico, um subtipo, portanto, de negação polêmica. Nosso trabalho fundamentalmente assim se organizará: (a) exposição das perspectivas e noções de Frege, Ducrot e Freud; (b) discussão sobre a denegação enquanto especificidade de negação polêmica; (c) discussão dos resultados em relação a estudos da linguagem.

Cascavel: 19 out. 2012. Frege ([1919/]1984) conceives of an ‘act of negation’ as consisting of an ‘act of judgment’ and a ‘negation’ and says that it needs a person by definition. Ducrot (1973) claims that a ‘polemic negation’ implies a ‘specific psychological attitude.’ With no major discrepancy regarding the previous constructs, Freud ([1925/]1996) introduces his notion of ‘negation’ as expressing a subjective contradiction. Such conceptions are allowed for in this conference paper with the intention of testing out a hypothesis according to which the Freudian negation linguistically is to be interpreted as merely a special type subsumed under Frege’s and Ducrot’s counterparts. The paper starts with a presentation of the concepts worked with, follows with a discussion on negation understood as mentioned above, and ends with considerations relating the results to language studies.

description: We performed simultaneous spectral analysis of 26.6 ksec of Chandra and 102.3 ksec of Suzaku X-ray data of the starburst galaxy NGC 3079. The spectra are extracted from four regions: 0.5' (2.25 kpc) circle, an inner 0.5'-1' (2.25--4.5 kpc) ring, and an outer 1'-2' (4.5--9 kpc) ring from Chandra, and 4' (18 kpc) circle from Suzaku, all centered on the nucleus. Fitting with thermal plasma models yields interstellar medium (ISM) temperatures of 0.65+0.05-0.04, 0.45+0.07-0.06, and 0.24+0.03-0.02 keV in the three regions, respectively. The combination of Chandra's high angular resolution and Suzaku's good spectral sensitivity enable us to spatially resolve and measure the abundances of the metals O, Ne, Mg, and Fe within the hot ISM. In particular, the abundance patterns of O/Fe, Ne/Fe, Mg/Fe, and Si/Fe in the central regions (<4.5 kpc) are consistent with the expectations from Supernovae (SN) II synthesis. On the other hand, the pattern in the region beyond 4.5 kpc is closer to solar. The central regions are also where copious polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon infrared emission related to recent starburst activity is known to occur. This suggests that we are seeing starburst-related SN II metal enrichment in the hot X-ray--emitting nuclear ISM. The spatial extent of the SN II--like abundance patterns is consistent with NGC 3079 being in a relatively-early phase of starburst activity.

description: This thesis contains a visual analysis and interpretation of the illustrations contained in fourteen editions dating from the year 1500 to 1600 of La Celestina, the famous literary work written by Fernando de Rojas (1499/1502). This thesis examines the visual narrative they provided by the illustrations for the reader, how they are used and reused within the different editions from different printers, time periods and cities, and how they interact with and impact the text. In examining the illustrations, I argue that they offer a way to interpret ideas about space and its reflections of societal beliefs surrounding appropriate spaces and interactions between genders, how repetitive representations of the characters also indicate beliefs and judgements about them made by society and the printers of the editions themselves, and how these illustrations can reflect the political events of the time. An additional examination of images that are incongruous with the text and additions made by the printers and/or illustrators, such as, added representations of animals, or unflattering representations of the main characters, allows for an expanded interpretation and understanding of various scenes in this iconic literary work.

description: Neutrinos streaming from a supernova (SN) core occasionally scatter in the envelope, producing a small "neutrino halo" with a much broader angle distribution than the primary flux originating directly from the core. Cherry et al. (2012) have recently pointed out that, during the accretion phase, the halo actually dominates neutrino-neutrino refraction at distances exceeding some 100 km. However, the multiangle matter effect (which increases if the angle distribution is broader) still appears to suppress self-induced flavor conversion during the accretion phase.

MEMS pressure, temperature and conductivity sensors for high temperature and harsh environments

description: Kraft pulp digesters have been used to convert wood chips into pulp for manufacturing a wide variety of paper products. Inside a kraft digester, chemical reactions remove lignin from their wood matrix in a caustic environment (pH~13.5, 170°C, 2MPa). Data on actual internal operating conditions in a kraft digester is needed to optimize kraft digester operation and obtain maximum production quality. Currently, this information is limited to selected static locations on the periphery of the digester. The objective of this thesis is to develop miniature temperature, pressure, and liquid conductivity sensors for use in autonomous flow-following SmartChips to measure kraft process variables within the digester during their passage through the process. Combined capacitive pressure and temperature sensors were fabricated by bonding silicon and Pyrex chips using a new polymeric gap-controlling layer and a high temperature adhesive. A simple chip bonding technique involving insertion of the adhesive into the gap between two chips was developed. A silicon dioxide layer and a thin layer of Parylene were deposited to passivate the pressure sensor diaphragm against the caustic environment in kraft digesters. The sensors were characterized at both high temperatures and pressures and no signs of corrosion could be identified on the sensors. Integrated piezoresistive pressure and temperature sensors consisting of a square silicon diaphragm and high resistance piezoresistors were developed. A new Parylene and silicone conformal coating process were developed to passivate the pressure sensors against the caustic environment. The sensors were characterized up to 2MPa and 180°C in an environmental chamber. The sensors’ resistances were measured before and after testing in a kraft pulping cycle and showed no change in their values. SEM pictures and topographical surface analyses were also performed before and after pulp liquor exposure and showed no observable changes. Combined liquid conductivity and temperature sensor packages consisting of a platinum resistance temperature detector (RTD) and a four-electrode conductivity sensor formed by stainless steel electrodes and installed on a polyetheretherketone (PEEK) enclosure were developed. The sensors were characterized up to 180°C at NaOH concentrations of 10-100g/l in the presence of wood chips and survived with no signs of corrosion.

Monitoring Conceptual and Linguistic Decisions to Generate Coherent Text

description: The extent and type of interaction that must occur between conceptual and linguistic decisions in a language generation system has been the subject of much debate. In this paper, we present general principles which can account for two classes of examples where interaction must occur. We identify how lexical choice and the choice between (passive with and without agent) influences text structure, determining the order of two consecutive propositions. Our account of the interaction allows for monitoring of the generation process so that an ordering of propositions can be retracted if lexical choice or syntactic construction requires a different ordering. Our approach generalizes across domains and we have implemented it as part of a domain independent language generator which is presented here.

description: With the discovery and treatment of any disease comes the important question of its genetic prevalence. This is especially important for animals under strict breeding control, such as dogs, because this can provide essential information regarding breeding pair decisions. Thus, the focus of this thesis is to investigate the genetic prevalence of three different diseases: 1) Factor VII Deficiency (FVIID), 2) Collie Eye Anomaly (CEA), and 3) Progressive Rod-Cone Degeneration-Progressive Retinal Atrophy (prcd-PRA). Factor VII Deficiency (FVIID) is a clotting disorder observed in both humans and dogs, characterized by impeded function of the Factor VII protein. In dogs, FVIID is caused by a single nucleotide substitution (c.407G>A) in the F7 gene. This mutation, identified in a colony of research Beagles, is also present in dogs with a wide variety of distantly-related breed backgrounds and in mixed-breed dogs, suggesting an ancient, ancestral origin. Given the relatively common presence of this variant, it was hypothesized that this genetic mutation could be contributing to excessive bleeding in canine autopsy cases that could not be attributed to typical causes. DNA from formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded tissues (n = 67 cases) were Sanger sequenced for the FVIID c.407G>A mutation, and all were determined to be homozygous wild-type. Therefore, the tested variant is not associated with the unexplained bleeding in these cases, and it is not a logical diagnostic test to apply to similar cases in the future.
 CEA and prcd-PRA are ophthalmic genetic diseases of concern often included in commercial genetic testing panels. A large dataset spanning 15+ years provided by a commercial partner company (OptiGen/Wisdom Panel, Kinship) encompassed dogs tested for the CEA-associated NHEJ1 deletion (n = 33,834 dogs) and the prcd-PRA causal mutation in PRCD (n = 86,667 dogs). Disease trends were observed graphically and analyzed with Chi-square goodness-of-fit testing and regression modeling for disease status and genotype classification. Both diseases had a statistically significant change in genotype frequencies from the first year of data to the last; both diseases also had a negative association between progression of time and overall probability of a dog being disease-positive or a carrier/heterozygous. This suggests that genetic testing results are being incorporated into breeding decisions, although affected dogs were still being identified by the end of this study. Different breeds, AKC groups, FCI groups, genetic clades, and geography were also investigated to determine impact on overall disease trend.

description: Subsonic motion of a large particle moving through the bulk of a dust crystal formed by negatively charged small particles is investigated using the PK-3 Plus laboratory onboard the International Space Station. Tracing the particle trajectories show that the large particle moves almost freely through the bulk of plasma crystal, while dust particles move along characteristic alpha-shaped pathways near the large particle. In the hydrodynamic approximation, we develop a theory of nonviscous dust particles motion about a large particle and calculate particle trajectories. A good agreement with experiment validates our approach.

description: This paper is divided into three chapters. The first two chapters focus on white collar workers’ identity, or rather non-identity, introduce critical issues regarding homogenized places and standardized dress codes that link a subject’s identity to their job, and how an individual’s identity is harmed by this. The third chapter outlines how this research was translated into materials, my perception of these materials, and the categories used. Data collection methods and how they contributed to the experiments are illustrated. In conclusion, the work invites the audience to consider how manipulated identities may affect society and rethink ideas of freedom, materialism, and a culture of grandiosity.

It is shown that the mutual inductance, that couples the input circuit and the SQUID loop, depends on the frequency of electromagnetic field. The renormalization of the SQUID parameters due to the screening effect of the input circuit vanishes when the Josephson frequency is much greater than the signal frequency.

description: In 1996, Tennenhouse and Wetherall proposed active networks, where users can inject code modules into network nodes. The proposal sparked intense debate and follow-on research, but ultimately failed to win over the networking community. Fifteen years later, the problems that motivated the active networks proposal persist. We call for a revival of active networks. We present NetServ, a fully integrated active network system that provides all the necessary functionality to be deployable, addressing the core problems that prevented the practical success of earlier approaches. We make the following contributions. We present a hybrid approach to active networking, which combines the best qualities from the two extreme approaches — integrated and discrete. We built a working system that strikes the right balance between security and performance by leveraging current technologies. We suggest an economic model based on NetServ between content providers and ISPs. We built four applications to illustrate the model.

description: As computer systems become more sophisticated they must be able to communicate their results successfully to their users. Natural language generation is the area of research concerned with developing methods that will allow a computer system to respond to its user in human language. In this paper, the need for natural language generation is first motivated by showing how it is used in several applications. Given that language generation is necessary for such systems, the paper also focuses on the issues that must be taken into account in developing a system that can generate language. Finally, techniques that have been used in two question-answering systems, the TEXT system [21] and TAILOR [22], are discussed.

description: The overall objective of Fair4Fusion is to make European (or nationally when permitted) funded data produced by fusion devices more widely and homogeneously available to the fusion community, other science communities, funding bodies, and the public at large in order to maximize the impact of the data and demonstrate the importance of the work done at relevant sites. In this deliverable, “Final Report on Open Science use Cases for Fusion Information” we present a collection of user stories to capture existing and hypothetical open science use cases. This extends on the submitted deliverable “Interim Report on Open Science Use Cases for Fusion Information” by adding a few new use cases, and more significantly, by providing an analysis of each use case in terms of any blocking issues. For the use cases, a range starting with single site access (currently readily available) and then extending to multi-site access (currently only partly available) are provided. These take the form of plotting or obtaining the data for time-traces (one or more scalars as a function of time) as well as profiles (one or more scalars as a function of a radial coordinate, typically at a user specified time). The open science cases extend beyond what is currently available for researchers to the desire to download data matching certain criteria from a number of devices that could then be used for data-mining. Another extension beyond what is presently available, are the user stories wanting to search for appropriate discharges across devices in a unified manner. A set of user stories from the perspective of FAIR principles has also been added, with some overlap of the previous stories but also adding a new perspective. These cases will provide input into the architecture and technical Work Packages. The living document capturing the use cases could be updated or elaborated as a result of further feedback from them.

A Comparison of Storage Optimisations in Automatically-Generated Attribute Evaluators

Year: 1985
Subjects: Computer science

description: Attribute grammars are a value-oriented, non-procedural extension to context-free grammars that facilitate the specification of translations whose domain is described by the underlying context-free grammar. Just as parsers for context-free languages can be automatically constructed from a context-free grammar, so can translators, called attribute evaluators, be automatically generated from an attribute grammar. A major obstacle to generating efficient attribute evaluators is that they typically use large amounts of memory to represent the attributed parse tree. In this report we investigate the problem of efficient representation of the attributed parse tree by analyzing and comparing the strategies of two systems that have been used to automatically generate a translator from an attribute grammar: the GAG system developed at the Universitat de Karlsruhe and the LINGUIST-86 system written at Intel Corporation. Our analysis will characterize the two strategies and highlight their respective strengths and weaknesses. Drawing on the insights given by this analysis, we propose a strategy for storage optimization in automatically generated attribute evaluators that not only incorporates the best features of both GAG and LINGUIST-86, but also contains novel features that address aspects of the problem that are handled poorly by both systems.

description: We proposed a theory of quantum anomalous Hall effect in a flat-band ferromagnet on a two-dimensional (2D) decorated lattice with spin-orbit coupling. Free electrons on the lattice have dispersionless flat bands, and the ground state is highly degenerate when each lattice site is occupied averagely by one electron, i.e., the system is at half filling. The on-site Coulomb interaction can remove the degeneracy and give rise to the ferrimagnetism, which is the coexistence of the ferromagnetic and antiferromagnetic long-range orders. On the other hand the spin-orbit coupling makes the band structure topologically non-trivial, and produces the quantum spin Hall effect with a pair of helical edge states around the system boundary. Based on the rigorous results for the Hubbard model, we found that the Coulomb interaction can provide an effective staggered potential and turn the quantum spin Hall phase into a quantum anomalous Hall phase.

description: We present a survey of usage of the popular Massively Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game, World of Warcraft. By mining publicly available data, we collected a dataset consisting of the player history for approximately six million characters, with partial data for another six million characters. This paper focuses on player achievement data in particular, exposing trends in play from this highly successful game. From this data, we present several findings on players' play styles. We correlate achievements with motivations based upon a previously-defined motivation model, and then classify players based on the categories of achievements that they pursued. Experiments show players who fall within each of these buckets can play differently, and that as players progress through game content, their play style evolves as well.

description: We use three-dimensional MHD simulations with anisotropic thermal conduction to study turbulence due to the magnetothermal instability (MTI) in the intracluster medium (ICM) of galaxy clusters. The MTI grows on timescales of ~1 Gyr and is capable of driving vigorous, sustained turbulence in the outer parts of galaxy clusters if the temperature gradient is maintained in spite of the rapid thermal conduction. If this is the case, turbulence due to the MTI can provide up to 5-30% of the pressure support beyond r_500 in galaxy clusters, an effect that is strongest for hot, massive clusters. The turbulence driven by the MTI is generally additive to other sources of turbulence in the ICM, such as that produced by structure formation. This new source of non-thermal pressure support reduces the observed Sunyaev-Zel'dovich (SZ) signal and X-ray pressure gradient for a given cluster mass and introduces a cluster mass and temperature gradient-dependent bias in SZ and X-ray mass estimates of clusters. This additional physics may also need to be taken into account when estimating the matter power spectrum normalization, sigma-8, through simulation templates from the observed amplitude of the SZ power spectrum.

description: Brain tumors are currently the most common cause of cancer-related deaths among children. With a 5-year survival rate of 20%, pediatric glioblastoma (pGBM) is a lethal brain tumor with no effective treatment options. Although pathologically indistinct from its adult counterpart, recent work has shown that pGBMs diverge at both the genetic and transcriptional level from the adult malignancy. Genomic analyses have identified a recurrent mutation in H3F3A, but this lesion is only present in a fraction of patients and has not contributed to the advancement of effective therapies. Using a longitudinal collection of primary and recurrent pGBMs with matched germlines, I have described a molecularly heterogeneous disease with extreme tumoral evolution. Perhaps my most striking finding is the presence of potentially deleterious structural variants in the patient germlines. Together, these findings suggest a novel hereditary component to tumor etiology which has not been previously described in this malignancy.
title: Novel pharmacological tools for investigating the pharmacology of free fatty acid receptor 2
Creators: name: Dedeo, Domonkos
Publisher: name: University of Glasgow

description: The G protein-coupled receptor FFA2 acts as a receptor for short chain fatty acids produced by commensal bacteria through the fermentation of dietary fibre. While FFA2 is implicated in several disease conditions, such as obesity and ulcerative colitis, the receptor has so far not been successfully exploited therapeutically. This may reflect marked species selectivity of antagonists for the human receptor, which hinder pre-clinical in vivo studies in rodent models of disease. Herein a novel transgenic mouse strain expressing human FFA2 with an integrated HA epitope tag (hFFA2-HA) was characterised as a novel animal model. To assess the expression of hFFA2-HA at the messenger RNA and protein levels, quantitative reverse-transcription PCR and immunohistochemistry approaches were utilised. hFFA2-HA was found to be expressed in adipose, colon, spleen and bone marrow-derived neutrophils, at equivalent levels as mouse FFA2 in C57BL/6N mice. In addition, hFFA2-HA expression was confirmed in subsets of enteroendocrine and haematopoietic cells in the intestine and spleen, respectively. Following immunocytochemical confirmation of hFFA2-HA protein expression in bone marrow-derived neutrophils, these were used in functional studies ex vivo. The functionality of hFFA2-HA on neutrophils was established with the use of the hFFA2-selective radioligand [3H]GLPG0974, which was found to specifically bind membranes from hFFA2-HA mouse neutrophils, and with the use of the endogenous ligand propionate in [35S]GTPγS incorporation assays, where a concentration-dependent response was observed. Importantly, hFFA2-selective antagonists were able to inhibit C3-induced [35S]GTPγS incorporation and chemotaxis in hFFA2-HA-expressing, but not in C57BL/6N neutrophils. For the investigation of hFFA2 phosphorylation, novel, potentially phosphosite-specific antisera were evaluated through Western Blot and immunocytochemistry methods. Here, residues Thr306 and Thr310 were observed to be phosphorylated in an agonist-dependent manner, while residues Ser296 and Ser297 appeared to be constitutively phosphorylated. Replacement of these residues with alanine abolished antiserum binding but did not fully ablate β-arrestin-2 interactions. The development of novel pharmacological research tools, here in the form of transgenic mouse models and phosphosite-specific antisera, can not only aid understanding of FFA2 signalling and pharmacology but can also bridge the translational gap between in vitro and clinical studies.

description: Nonprofit organizations have been recently mandated to disclose the details of their executives’ compensation packages. Contract information is now accessible not only to current and prospective donors, but also to rival nonprofit organizations competing for donations in the fundraising market. Our aim is to investigate the impact of publicly available contract information on fundraising competition of nonprofit organizations. We argue that, although such provision makes contract information available to multiple stakeholders and increases the transparency of the nonprofit sector, it also induces nonprofits to use managerial incentive contracts strategically. In particular, we find that the observability of incentive contracts relaxes existing fundraising competition. This is beneficial in terms of nonprofits’ outputs, in particular when these organizations are trapped in a situation of excessive fundraising activities. However, we show that publicly available contract information distorts nonprofits’ choice of projects, thus potentially inducing socially inefficient project clustering.

Ion response in a weakly ionized plasma with ion flow

description: We study the ion response to an initial perturbation in a weakly ionized plasma with ion flow driven by a dc electric field. The analysis is made by extending the classical Landau work [J. Phys. (USSR) 10, 25 (1946)] to the ion kinetic equation including ion-neutral collisions and a dc electric field. We show, in particular, that the complex frequencies of ion waves can be directly found from a known expression for the ion susceptibility [Phys. Rev. E 71, 016405 (2005); Phys. Rep. 27, 997 (2001)]; this is not obvious from its original derivation, because it only aims to describe the ion response for real frequencies.
Cooperative Transactions for Multi-User Environments

Publisher: name: Columbia University
Year: 1993
Subjects: Computer science

description: This chapter surveys extended transaction models proposed to support long duration, interactive and/or cooperative activities in the context of multi-user software development and CAD/CAM environments. Many of these are variants of the checkout model, which addresses the long duration and interactive nature of the activities supported by environments but still isolates environment users, making it difficult for them to collaborate while their activities are in progress. However, a few cooperative transaction models have been proposed to facilitate collaboration, usually while maintaining some guarantees of consistency.
