As crucial water conservancy projects, ship locks play a key role in flood control, shipping, water resource allocation, and promoting regional economic development, making them an indispensable part of the modern water transportation system.

Silences in the boom: coal seam gas, neoliberalizing discourse, and the future of regional Australia
In high-stakes resource use struggles currently playing out across the world, different beliefs about economics and "growth-first" regional development underpin decisions and dynamics that have far-reaching consequences.

Opening up public data should be an urgent priority for the government and could lead to considerable economic benefits [PDF]
There is no longer a reasonable justification for keeping publicly funded data under lock and key. With the government ostensibly committed to transparency, Chris Yiu argues that opening up public data is a must, and could have solid economic and ...

Health Care Coverage: Job Lock and the Potential Impact of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act [PDF]
[Excerpt] The majority of Americans—about 55 percent in 2010—rely on employer-sponsored health care coverage, which is largely subsidized by most employers and thus less costly to employees than coverage purchased by individuals on their own.

From Lock Freedom to Progress Using Session Types [PDF]
Inspired by Kobayashi's type system for lock freedom, we define a behavioral type system for ensuring progress in a language of binary sessions. The key idea is to annotate actions in session types with priorities representing the urgency with which such

Theoretical Aspects of Molecular Recognition [PDF]
Molecular recognition is a key process in non-covalent interactions, which determines, among others, host-guest complexation, drug action and protein-protein interaction. A simple and attractive formulation is the lock-and-key analogy defining the host

The Lock-free $k$-LSM Relaxed Priority Queue
Priority queues are data structures which store keys in an ordered fashion to allow efficient access to the minimal (maximal) key. Priority queues are essential for many applications, e.g., Dijkstra's single-source shortest path algorithm, branch-and ...

Lock cohorting: A general technique for designing NUMA locks [PDF]
Multicore machines are quickly shifting to NUMA and CC-NUMA architectures, making scalable NUMA-aware locking algorithms, ones that take into account the machines' non-uniform memory and caching hierarchy, ever more important.

Beyond the fuzzy lock-and-key: spontaneous symmetry shifts and glycan/lectin logic gates [PDF]
Changes in the molecular topology of glycan/lectin interaction may explain observed reaction punctuation driven by experimental gradients in reactant concentration. Adoption of a 'biological renormalization' perspective from statistical physics
