Skeena: Efficient and Consistent Cross-Engine Transactions [PDF]
Database systems are becoming increasingly multi-engine. In particular, a main-memory database engine may coexist with a traditional storage-centric engine in a system to support various applications. It is desirable to allow applications to access data in both engines using cross-engine transactions.

Social Engineering in Cybersecurity: A Domain Ontology and Knowledge Graph Application Examples [PDF]
Social engineering has posed a serious threat to cyberspace security. To protect against social engineering attacks, a fundamental work is to know what constitutes social engineering. This paper first develops a domain ontology of social engineering in cybersecurity and conducts ontology evaluation by its knowledge graph application.

The Risk-Taking Software Engineer: A Framed Portrait [PDF]
Background: Risk-taking is prevalent in a host of activities performed by software engineers on a daily basis, yet there is scant research on it. Aims and Method: We study if software engineers' risk-taking is affected by framing effects and by software engineers' personality.

Are Game Engines Software Frameworks? A Three-perspective Study [PDF]
Game engines help developers create video games and avoid duplication of code and effort, like frameworks for traditional software systems. In this paper, we explore open-source game engines along three perspectives: literature, code, and human. First, we explore and summarise the academic literature on game engines.

Lessons Learned from Educating AI Engineers [PDF]
Over the past three years we have built a practice-oriented, bachelor level, educational programme for software engineers to specialize as AI engineers. The experience with this programme and the practical assignments our students execute in industry has given us valuable insights on the profession of AI engineer. In this paper we discuss our programme

Non-Ideal Measurement Heat Engines [PDF]
We discuss the role of non-ideal measurements within the context of measurement engines by contrasting examples of measurement engines which have the same work output but with varying amounts of entanglement. Accounting for the cost of resetting, correlating the engine to a pointer state and also the cost of cooling the pointer state, we show that for ...

Dissipative heat engine is thermodynamically inconsistent [PDF]
A heat engine operating on the basis of the Carnot cycle is considered, where the mechanical work performed is dissipated within the engine at the temperature of the warmer isotherm and the resulting heat is added to the engine together with an external heat input.

Academic Search Engines: Constraints, Bugs, and Recommendation [PDF]
Background: Academic search engines (i.e., digital libraries and indexers) play an increasingly important role in systematic reviews however these engines do not seem to effectively support such reviews, e.g., researchers confront usability issues with the engines when conducting their searches.

The Essence of the Essence from the Web:The Metasearch Engine [PDF]
The exponential growth of information source on the web and in turn continuing technological progress of searching the information by using tools like Search Engines gives rise to many problems for the user to know which tool is best for their query and which tool is not.
