No full textCurrent peer-to-peer storage utilities offer a convenient flat storage space, delegating the organization and presentation of data to upper layers. In reality, both applications and users typically organize data in a structured form. One such popular structure is hierarchical namespace as employed in a file system. A nave approach such as hashing the pathname of file system not only ignores locality in important operations such as file/directory lookup, but also results in uncontrollable, massive object relocations when rename on path component occurs

No full textTese de Doutoramento em Didática das Línguas - Multilinguismo e Educação para a Cidadania Global em associação com a Faculdade de Ciências Sociais e Humanas da Universidade Nova de Lisboa, apresentada à Universidade AbertaApós a entrada no novo século, o processo de democratização do ensino superior
acelerou, ao mesmo tempo que se estreitou a relação entre o ensino superior e o
desenvolvimento socioeconómico.
O crescente acesso ao ensino superior na China conduziu a uma mudança fundamental
nas oportunidades de emprego dos detentores de um grau universitário, nomeadamente
com cursos de línguas estrangeiras, que enfrentam uma pressão crescente no mercado
de trabalho. A sociedade chinesa tem demonstrado particular preocupação com grupos
especiais, criando por exemplo escolas de formação profissional de línguas estrangeiras.
Na base da sua própria experiência no ensino de português na China, a autora pretende
contribuir para a evolução profissional na área da educação e ensino desta língua. Neste
contexto, deixa algumas sugestões para a reforma dos cursos de Língua Portuguesa nos
Institutos de Línguas Estrangeiras de Formação Profissional, área da sua especialização
académica.After the entry into the new century, the process of democratization of higher education
accelerated, and the relationship between higher education and socio-economic
development became even closer.
Increasing access to higher education in China has led to a fundamental change in the
job opportunities of college graduates, notably of the foreign language courses, which
face increasing pressure on the labor market. Chinese society has been particularly
concerned about special groups, for example by setting up vocational training schools for
foreign languages.
Based on her own experience in teaching Portuguese in China, the author intends to
contribute to the professional development of the Portuguese language education and
teaching. In this context, she gives some suggestions for the reform of Portuguese
Language courses at the Foreign Language Institutes of Vocational Training, her area of
academic specialization.N/

What is common may be as important as what is different: examining the general factor shared by dispositional shame and guilt using bi-factor models
Get PDFPrevious research on shame and guilt has tended to focus on their unique associations with other variables. It has become commonplace to eliminate the substantial shared variance with shame when examining guilt, and to eliminate shared variance with guilt when examining shame. What previous research has typically not done is to examine the variance shared by shame and guilt. In a series of three studies, we addressed this issue by employing bi-factor models to examine the general factor shared by shame and guilt, and its relationship to several important personality traits and two broad liability factors of psychopathology (i.e., externalizing and internalizing psychopathology). As hypothesized, the general factor shared by shame and guilt was strongly and positively associated with personality traits associated with moral emotions (empathy, agreeableness and conscientiousness), and strongly but inversely associated with both self-reported and informant-reported externalizing psychopathology. The general factor was also associated with self-consciousness, but not with self-criticism, vulnerable narcissism or neuroticism. The implications of these findings are discussed regarding the conceptualization of shame and guilt.Submission published under a 24 month embargo labeled 'U of I Access', the embargo will last until 2020-08-01The student, Wenting Mu, accepted the attached license on 2018-04-13 at 09:14.The student, Wenting Mu, submitted this Dissertation for approval on 2018-04-13 at 09:24.This Dissertation was approved for publication on 2018-04-17 at 17:21.DSpace SAF Submission Ingestion Package generated from Vireo submission #12229 on 2018-09-27 at 11:15:30Made available in DSpace on 2018-09-27T16:27:59Z (GMT).

Efficient checkpoint and recovery scheme in a fast in-memory database
No full textThesis: M. Eng., Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science, 2014.This electronic version was submitted by the student author. The certified thesis is available in the Institute Archives and Special Collections.Cataloged from student-submitted PDF version of thesis.Includes bibliographical references (pages 61-62).Multicore in-memory databases for modern machines can support extraordinarily high transaction rates for online transaction processing workloads. A potential weakness of such databases, however, is recovery from crash failures. We show that techniques for disk-based persistence can be ecient enough to keep up with current systems' huge memory sizes and fast transaction rates, be smart enough to avoid additional contention, and provide fast recovery. This thesis presents SiloR, a persistence system built for a very fast multicore database system called Silo. We show that naive logging and checkpoints make normal-case execution slower, but that careful design of the persistence system allows us to keep up with many workloads without negative impact on runtime performance. We design the checkpoint and logging system to utilize multicore's resources to its fullest extent, both during runtime and during recovery. Parallelism allows the system to recover fast. Experiments show that a large database (~~ 50 GB) can be recovered in under five minutes.by Wenting Zheng.M. Eng
A Multifunctional Ribonuclease-A-Conjugated CdTe Quantum Dot Cluster Nanosystem for Synchronous Cancer Imaging and Therapy
No full textCdTe quantum dot (QD) clusters are synthesized in the presence of RNase A, which acts as a biomolecular templating, agent under microwave irradiation. Red shifts of photoluminescence spectra of the denatured RNase A (dRNase A)-capping QD clusters (dRQDs) are detected during a fifty-day storage period at room temperature. Native RNase-A-associated dRQDs (R-dRQDs) are functionalized with cyclic RGD peptides for synchronous targeted cancer imaging and therapy. © 2010 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim
