Strongly disordered quantum spin systems in low dimensions - numerical study of spin chains, spin ladders and two-dimensional systems
Analyses of celestial pole offsets with VLBI, LLR, and optical observations
This work aims to explore the possibilities of determining the long-period
part of the precession-nutation of the Earth with techniques other than very
long baseline interferometry (VLBI). Lunar laser ranging (LLR) is chosen for
its relatively high accuracy and long period. Results of previous studies could
be updated using the latest data with generally higher quality, which would
also add ten years to the total time span. Historical optical data are also
analyzed for their rather long time-coverage to determine whether it is
possible to improve the current Earth precession-nutation model
A Survey on Array Storage, Query Languages, and Systems
Since scientific investigation is one of the most important providers of
massive amounts of ordered data, there is a renewed interest in array data
processing in the context of Big Data. To the best of our knowledge, a unified
resource that summarizes and analyzes array processing research over its long
existence is currently missing. In this survey, we provide a guide for past,
present, and future research in array processing. The survey is organized along
three main topics. Array storage discusses all the aspects related to array
partitioning into chunks. The identification of a reduced set of array
operators to form the foundation for an array query language is analyzed across
multiple such proposals. Lastly, we survey real systems for array processing.
The result is a thorough survey on array data storage and processing that
should be consulted by anyone interested in this research topic, independent of
experience level. The survey is not complete though. We greatly appreciate
pointers towards any work we might have forgotten to mention.Comment: 44 page
