Models of Quantum Computers and Decoherence Problem

Mathematical models of quantum computers such as a multidimensional quantum Turing machine and quantum circuits are described and its relations with lattice spin models are discussed. One of the main open problems one has to solve if one wants to build a quantum computer is the decoherence due to the coupling with the environment. We propose a possible solution of this problem by using a contro...

Efficient GPS Push Models for Mobile Computers

In the past several years, smart-phones have gotten more and more powerful. The ubiquity of these mobile devices has grown along with their computing power. Conservative estimates from the 2000 Census report state that 10% of US workers will be completely mobile, with no permanent office space.[1] As we progress into the new millenium, it is becoming clear that this trend towards distributed wo...

On Programming Models for Multi-Core Computers

This document gives an overview of my current view on the topic of my promotion and the current state of the research I have done since May 2009 at the HPI Research School on Service-Oriented Systems Engineering within the operating systems and middleware group supervised by Prof. Dr. Andreas Polze. Since services are hosted by application servers, shifts in the underlying systems have a great ...
