Abstract:

The library of the European Southern Observatory exists in its holdings since about 1970. The library is still a small one. It contains about 15–20000 books, 240 journal titles, approximately 70 m shelf-space for Observatory Publications and has about 220 square meters surface area. With about the same size we have a second library in La Silla in Chile, the mountain where our telescopes are installed. In Garching we have one and a third (!) librarian(s) and in Chile one librarian as staff. The question is: is it possible and is it necessary to computerize such small libraries and how can we do

Abstract:

<p>Academic libraries have traditionally provided computers for students to access their collections and, more recently, facilitate all aspects of studying. Recent changes in technology, particularly the increased presence of mobile devices, calls into question how libraries can best provide technology support and how it might impact the use of other library services. A two-year study conducted at California State University San Marcos library analyzed student use of the computers in the library, both the library’s own desktop computers and laptops owned by students.

Abstract:

Libraries are expensive and research libraries are particularly expensive. Even in the United States, few people can afford good access to primary scientific, medical, legal and scholarly information. Members of major universities have excellent library services. So do people who work in teaching hospitals, or for drug companies or rich law firms. Others have access to information only through the tedious, inefficient system of interlibrary lending. In less affluent countries the situation is worse; even the best universities cannot afford good libraries. Must access to scientific and professi

Abstract:

The model of bulk-synchronous parallel computation (BSP) helps to implement portable general purpose algorithms while maintaining predictable performance on different parallel computers. Nevertheless, when programming in ‘BSP style’, the running time of the implementation of an algorithm can be very dependent on the underlying communication library. In this study, an overview of existing approaches to practical BSP programming in C/C++ or Fortran is given and benchmarks were run for the two main BSP-like communication libraries, the Oxford BSP Toolset and PUB.
