An efficient failure-resilient mutual exclusion algorithm for distributed systems leveraging a novel zero-message overlay structure حسب Mouna Rabhi (17086969)

"…An extensive simulation study demonstrates the viability and efficiency of the proposed algorithm under various node failure models, and relevant metrics (e.g., node queue dimension, number of exchanged messages, and number of disconnected nodes) indicate a graceful degradation in performance with decreasing number of functioning nodes. For instance, for 4,096 nodes organized in a logical tree of arity 4 and with 4 physical nodes for logical node, a negligible number of nodes is disconnected from the tree after 250 epochs when the per-node per-epoch failure probability is p f ≤ 0 . 0008 . …"

Addressing climate change with behavioral science: A global intervention tournament in 63 countries حسب Vlasceanu, Madalina

"…Here, we tested 11 expert-crowdsourced interventions on four climate mitigation outcomes: beliefs, policy support, information sharing intention, and an effortful tree-planting behavioral task. Across 59,440 participants from 63 countries, the interventions’ effectiveness was small, largely limited to nonclimate skeptics, and differed across outcomes: Beliefs were strengthened mostly by decreasing psychological distance (by 2.3%), policy support by writing a letter to a future-generation member (2.6%), information sharing by negative emotion induction (12.1%), and no intervention increased the more effortful behavior—several interventions even reduced tree planting. …"

Elastic Buckling Behavior of Functionally Graded Material Thin Skew Plates with Circular Openings حسب Alashkar, Adnan

"…Moreover, as the opening shifts from the plate’s edge closer to the center, the critical buckling load decreases by 26%. The critical buckling load is also dependent on the power index, as an increase in the power index from 0.2 to 5 reduced the buckling load by 1698 kN. …"
