Parallel file replication where a large file needs to be simultaneously replicated to multiple sites is an integral part of dataintensive grid environment. Current data transport mechanisms such as GridFTP is mainly created for point-to-point file transfer and not for parallel point-to-multipoint transfer (required in replication). This paper presents a tool that creates multiple distribution t...

This study investigated whether older adults could acquire the ability to perform 2 cognitive operations in parallel in a paradigm in which young adults had been shown to be able to do so (K. Oberauer & R. Kliegl, 2004). Twelve young and 12 older adults practiced a numerical and a visuospatial continuous memory updating task in single-task and dual-task conditions for 16 to 24 sessions. After p...

The purpose of this contribution is two-fold. The primary task is to present a summary of the activities discussed in the parallel session “loops” of the Linear Collider Workshop (LCWS) 2007 at DESY in Hamburg. As a second aim we try to provide an overview of higher order corrections performed in the context of the ILC. It is clear that a brief review like the present one can not be complete an...
