HIV and Concurrent Sexual Partnerships: Modelling the Role of Coital Dilution [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Background: The concurrency hypothesis asserts that high prevalence of overlapping sexual partnerships explains extraordinarily high HIV levels in sub-Saharan Africa.

Sculptures in Concurrency

open access: yesLogical Methods in Computer Science, 2018
We give a formalization of Pratt's intuitive sculpting process for higher-dimensional automata (HDA). Intuitively, an HDA is a sculpture if it can be embedded in (i.e., sculpted from) a single higher dimensional cell (hypercube). A first important result of this paper is that not all HDA can be sculpted, exemplified through several natural acyclic HDA,

The construction of an idealised urban masculinity among men with concurrent sexual partners in a South African township

open access: yesGlobal Health Action, 2010
Background : The perspectives of heterosexual males who have large sexual networks comprising concurrent sexual partners and who engage in high-risk sexual behaviours are scarcely documented.

A qualitative study of attitudes towards, typologies, and drivers of concurrent partnerships among people of black Caribbean ethnicity in England and their implications for STI prevention

open access: yesBMC Public Health, 2020
Background Partner concurrency, (having sexual partnerships overlapping in time), especially when condoms are not used, can facilitate sexually transmitted infections (STI) transmission.

Capturing High-level Nondeterminism in Concurrent Programs for Practical Concurrency Model Agnostic Record & Replay [PDF]

open access: yesThe Art, Science, and Engineering of Programming, 2021, Vol. 5, Issue 3, Article 14, 2021
With concurrency being integral to most software systems, developers combine high-level concurrency models in the same application to tackle each problem with appropriate abstractions. While languages and libraries offer a wide range of concurrency models, debugging support for applications that combine them has not yet gained much attention.

LC/DC: Lockless Containers and Data Concurrency a Novel Nonblocking Container Library for Multicore Applications

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2013
Exploiting the parallelism in multiprocessor systems is a major challenge in modern computer science. Multicore programming demands a change in the way we design and use fundamental data structures.

Implicit attitudes to sexual partner concurrency vary by sexual orientation but not by gender-A cross sectional study of Belgian students. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2018
High rates of sexual partner concurrency have been shown to facilitate the spread of various sexually transmitted infections. Assessments of explicit attitudes to concurrency have however found little difference between populations. Implicit attitudes to

Concurrent Secrets

open access: yesDiscrete Event Dynamic Systems, 2006
Given a finite state system with partial observers and for each observer, a regular set of trajectories which we call a secret, we consider the question whether the observers can ever find out that the trajectory of the system belongs to some secret. We search for a regular control on the system, enforcing the specified secrets on the observers, even ...

Concurrency engineering [PDF]

open access: yes2008 13th Asia-Pacific Computer Systems Architecture Conference, 2008
This is a discussion paper on a very important topic that is about to become mainstream. It deals with the issues of software engineering in concurrent systems. It introduces this topic and illustrates the arguments for a change of perspective. It underlines these arguments with two examples, an asynchronous stream-based programming model and an ...

Navigating intimate sexual partnerships in an era of HIV: dimensions of couple relationship quality and satisfaction among adults in Eswatini and linkages to HIV risk

open access: yesSAHARA-J, 2019
Couple relationship functioning impacts individual health and well-being, including HIV risk, but scant research has focused on emic understandings of relationship quality in African populations.
