The book explores the intricacies of distributed systems, covering foundational concepts in distributed programming languages and formal design approaches. It delves into crucial algorithms for mutual exclusion, election processes, and strategies for preventing and detecting deadlock. Reliability in distributed systems is addressed alongside routing algorithms and data management techniques. Additionally, it includes practical applications of distributed systems and an appendix for further reference, making it a comprehensive resource for understanding the complexities of distributed computing.
Focusing on the intersection of philosophy, mathematics, and aesthetics, this book explores the historical foundations and contemporary applications of aesthetic thought. It examines the connections between systemic aesthetics and various human sciences, analyzing the principles, methods, and logic that define beauty and nature. Ideal for a diverse audience, including philosophers and researchers, it offers insights into the evolving understanding of aesthetics in both European and Asian traditions, making it a vital reference for those interested in the structured study of artistic beauty.
Focusing on the politicization of social dispute resolution, this book delves into the alarming rise of hospital violence in China, where over 70% of public hospitals have faced such incidents. Through extensive fieldwork, including over 700 mediation cases and interviews with various stakeholders, it reveals how the Chinese party-state employs traditional mediation to manage these conflicts. The study highlights the interplay between political stability, moral concerns, and mediation outcomes, offering insights into non-electoral political participation and evolving government strategies in dispute resolution.
The mechanism of laminar-turbulent boundary-layer transition in high-speed flow, particularly in supersonic flow, is still incompletely understood despite significant progress has been made since the past few decades. In order to obtain deep insight of boundary-layer transition mechanism in supersonic flow regime, a collaboration study based on experimental investigation and numerical calculation is conducted in this dissertation. A new Tandem Nozzle Mach 3 Wind Tunnel is designed and manufactured based on the infrastructure of the existing Mach 6 Ludwieg. By introducing an extra nozzle and a settling chamber, the desired supersonic flow can be achieved. Based on the theoretical and numerical design, the Mach 3 wind tunnel is built. The wind tunnel calibration is performed next for both mean and fluctuating flow. Afterwards the instability wave on a 7° half-angle sharp cone model with zero angle of attack in Mach 3 supersonic flow is studied, both numerically and experimentally. The linear stability theory is applied to the basic flow to predict the property of instability wave. Later, the instability experiments are performed using PCB sensors and hot-wire anemometry. The PCB sensors are surface mounted to capture the pressure fluctuations along the cone model, whereas the hot-wire probe is traversed through the boundary-layer of the cone flow at different axial stations. The instability waves ranging from 17 kHz to 50 kHz are observed with both instruments. They are quantitatively characterized and compared with the numerical calculation, and good agreement is achieved. Eventually, the critical N-factor is also estimated for the sharp cone in present tunnel.
It’s a self-salvation story about several young people who were victims of abusive or problematic families. Prince grew up in a family which only paid attention to the only boy of the family; Jade Zhen’s father was in prison due to unintentional homicide; Singer Wu gave up his dream due to his father was in a vegetative status after a traffic accident; Author Forbearance was abused like an orphan after his father died in an accident and his mother remarried; Reverence Liu grew up in single parent family. Loneliness and indifference had been engraved in their memories. After their grow-ups, they decided to fight against their broken hearts and the secular stereotypes of the society, persisted to look for the lingering glow of love. In the process they faltered forward without giving up their hopes and fights. They acted just like a bobbing leaf in a river, till they bumped with each other. They began to have a new life after salvation in the process of loving and being loved, leaving their sad or painful past behind, and getting ...
Théorie analytique et probabiliste des nombres . 307 exercices corrigés . Ce fascicule d'exercices corrigés vient en complément de l'Introduction à la théorie analytique et probabiliste des nombres , un grand classique inclus dans la bibliothèque de l'agrégation depuis des années et publié dans la même collection. Plus de 300 exercices de niveaux variés sont proposés dans ce traité : les voici réunis, avec leurs solutions détaillées, dans un même livre.. Les énoncés répondent à une double motivation. Certains sont dévolus à la simple mise en pratique des notions fondamentales introduites dans le traité ; d'autres, plus élaborés, parfois originaux ou inédits, sont destinés à initier le lecteur à la recherche en théorie analytique des nombres. Un soin particulier a été apporté à la rédaction des solutions, surtout lorsqu'elles conduisent à des problèmes de recherche.. S'appuyant uniquement sur les connaissances traditionnellement enseignées en licence et en master, ce livre constitue un outil de travail précieux pour les étudiants (notamment préparant l'agrégation ou le CAPES de mathématiques) et pour les chercheurs, jeunes ou confirmés, qui y trouveront notamment les démonstrations complètes de résultats nouveaux ou relevant de la tradition orale..
