A Business Analysis of a SKYLON Based European Launch Service OperatorA. Rocketeer
The document summarizes a study conducted between 2012-2014 by an industrial consortium for the European Space Agency to explore the feasibility of using Skylon, a single stage reusable launch system, as the basis for a new European launch service operator. The study looked at both a Skylon operator business model and a Skylon manufacturer business model. It found that the only viable approach was an "airline" model where the manufacturer sells Skylons to multiple operators. Under reasonable assumptions, the manufacturer could expect around a 10% return, sufficient to attract public-private funding. The operator business also showed potential for commercial viability even at lower launch prices to match expendable systems.

Dandelion Hashtable: beyond billion requests per second on a commodity serverAntonios Katsarakis
This slide deck presents DLHT, a concurrent in-memory hashtable. Despite efforts to optimize hashtables, that go as far as sacrificing core functionality, state-of-the-art designs still incur multiple memory accesses per request and block request processing in three cases. First, most hashtables block while waiting for data to be retrieved from memory. Second, open-addressing designs, which represent the current state-of-the-art, either cannot free index slots on deletes or must block all requests to do so. Third, index resizes block every request until all objects are copied to the new index. Defying folklore wisdom, DLHT forgoes open-addressing and adopts a fully-featured and memory-aware closed-addressing design based on bounded cache-line-chaining. This design offers lock-free index operations and deletes that free slots instantly, (2) completes most requests with a single memory access, (3) utilizes software prefetching to hide memory latencies, and (4) employs a novel non-blocking and parallel resizing. In a commodity server and a memory-resident workload, DLHT surpasses 1.6B requests per second and provides 3.5x (12x) the throughput of the state-of-the-art closed-addressing (open-addressing) resizable hashtable on Gets (Deletes).
