Consistency, concurrency, and crash recovery
Authors: Y. Edmund Lien, Peter J. Weinberger
Venue: Proceedings of the 1978 ACM SIGMOD international conference on management of data (1978)

This paper presents a method for increasing concurrency in shared data bases. A data base is taken to be a collection of entities with structure, such as relations. Concurrency is increased in the sense that several readers and a single writer may access a set of entities. At the same time, either serializability or a slightly weaker form of consistency can be seen by all transactions. Each transaction is assumed to obtain all its resources when it starts. The method also allows for convenient recovery from crashes which do not affect the information on secondary storage.

Triple play: delivering effective & key communication
Authors: Todd Krupa
Venue: Proceedings of the 29th annual ACM SIGUCCS conference on User services (2001)

Students, faculty and staff receive and process information in different ways, leaving messengers with the challenge of uncovering various channels and tapping into those resources to make messages effective. The additional channels offered by technology make such a task even more challenging because more delivery options generally mean niche specialization and less penetration, leading to diluting and splintering of message content.The bottom line: people are becoming even more difficult to reach because of the seemingly endless number of messages bombarding them. And when those messages are difficult to understand (like many technology messages are), they generally are discarded in spite of potential importance or relevance.At the University of Missouri-Columbia, Information & Access Technology Services has developed an integrated approach to communicating with its various publics. The strategy is grounded in sending the same message to the same audience using different delivery models. Triangulation of messages to faculty, staff and students at MU has been successful in raising awareness, communicating news, advertising new services and getting action. The key is consistency and persistence in editorial and promotional approaches, tapping known, reliable channels and developing new ways to reach targeted publics.

Computational adjustable autonomy for NASA Personal Satellite Assistants
Authors: Henry Hexmoor, Justin Tyrel Vaughn
Venue: Proceedings of the 2002 ACM symposium on Applied computing (2002)

We will describe a simulator and simulated teamwork among a number of Personal Satellite Assistants (PSA) onboard the simulated space station patrolling for problem detection and isolation. PSAs reason about autonomies of potential helpers while helpers reason about their autonomies for deciding to help or to break away from prior commitments to help. We describe algorithms for computing PSA autonomies when there are concurrent and conflicting situations. We also offer empirical results about qualities of help a recruiting PSA receives when there are multiple, concurrent problems.

Software architecture in a changing world: developing design strategies that anticipate change
Authors: Robert L. Nord, Daniel J. Paulish, Robert W. Schwanke, Dilip Soni
Venue: Proceedings of the 8th European software engineering conference held jointly with 9th ACM SIGSOFT international symposium on Foundations of software engineering (2001)

It is now generally accepted that separating software architecture into multiple views can help in reducing complexity and in making sound decisions about design trade-offs. Our four views are based on current practice; they are loosely coupled, and address different engineering concerns [1]. This tutorial will teach you how global analysis can improve your design, and how to use UML to describe these views. You will learn: (1) the purpose of having separate software architecture views, (2) the differnce between using UML for software architecture and the use of UML for designing OO implementations, (3) how to apply global analysis to analyze factors that influence the architecture and to develop strategies that guide the design, (4) the importance of designing for anticipated change to produce more maintainable architectures, and (5) how to incorporate software architecture design in your software process. This tutorial is aimed at experienced softwre engineers, architects, and technical managers. It is assumed that participants know the basic UML diagrams. Experience in developing models and software design is helpful.
