1. 21. Cross region cloud redundancy : A comparison of a single-region and a multi-region approach

   University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för datavetenskap

   Author : Oskar Lindén; [2023]
   Keywords : Cloud computing; Cross-region replication; Performance evaluation;

   Abstract : In order to increase the resiliency and redundancy of a distributed system, it is common to keep standby systems and backups of data in different locations than the primary site, separated by a meaningful distance in order to tolerate local outages. Nasdaq has accomplished this by maintaining primary-standby pairs or primary-standby-disaster triplets with at least one system residing in a different site. READ MORE

5. 24. Focal Spot Optimization Using Spatial Light Modulation and a Phase Retrieval Algorithm

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Atomfysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

   Author : Robert Petersen; [2023]
   Keywords : Spatial Light Modulation; Phase Retrieval Algorithm; Focal Spot Optimization; Adaptive Optics; Wavefront Sensing; Lasers; Physics and Astronomy; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : Aberrations to the wavefront of a laser beam reduce the quality of the focal spot and are generally undesired. This project is aimed at determining the aberrations of laser beams by using a phase retrieval algorithm and to show that it is possible to correct the aberrations with a spatial light modulator to optimize the focal spot.
