[more ▼] Würde sich der Wohlstand einer Gesellschaft am Bruttoinlandsprodukt pro Kopf bemessen, hätte das Emirat Katar international die Nase vorn, gefolgt von Luxemburg und Norwegen. Rang vier würde das Sultanat Brunei auf der Insel Borneo belegen, wo seit 1988 Parteien verboten sind und der Sultan per Dekret regiert. Ganz so einfach sollte man es sich mit der Wohlstandsmessung nicht machen. Um den Reichtum einer Gesellschaft vergleichend zu beurteilen, bedarf es weiterer Kriterien. Die Suche nach dem guten Leben beschäftigt Philosophen seit Platon und Aristoteles. Auch heute mangelt es unter Sozialwissenschaftlern nicht an Theorien der Gerechtigkeit. Der Ökonomie-Nobelpreisträger Amartya Sen und die Rechtsphilosophin und diesjährige A.SK-Preisträgerin Martha Nussbaum haben einen ganz eigenen Maßstab entwickelt, um den Zustand eines Gemeinwesens zu prüfen - weit über ökonomische Kennzahlen hinaus. Kann ein Mensch ein Leben führen, für das er sich aus guten Gründen entschieden hat und das seine Selbstachtung garantiert, fragen sie. Kann er sich bilden, arbeiten und politisch engagieren? Hat er Zugang zum Gesundheitssystem? Steht ihm angemessener Wohnraum zu Verfügung? Verwirklichungschancen (capabilities) haben Sen und Nussbaum ihren Ansatz genannt. Dahinter steckt eine zweifache Annahme: Der Einzelne ist seines Glückes Schmied, aber sein Leben gelingt nur in dem Maße, wie die Gesellschaft ihn dabei unterstützt.

[more ▼] An electrodeposition-annealing route to films of the promising p-type absorber material Cu2ZnSnS4 (CZTS) using layered metal precursors is studied. The dependence of device performance on composition is investigated, and it is shown that a considerable Cu-deficiency is desirable to produce effective material, as measured by photoelectrochemical measurements employing the Eu3+/2+ redox couple. The differing effects of using elemental sulphur and H2S as sulphur sources during annealing are also studied, and it is demonstrated that H2S annealing results in films with improved crystallinity.

[more ▼] This article examines the arguably most interesting pieces of evidence used during the trial of Slobodan Milošević at the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia—more than two hundred recordings of intercepted conversations that took place in 1991 and 1992 between Milošević, Radovan Karadžić, Dobrica Ćosić, and various other protagonists on the Serbian side of the wars in Croatia and Bosnia and Herzegovina (BiH). Analysis of the intercepts presented in this article makes several important contributions to the interpretation of events in former Yugoslavia during that period. First, it identifies the ideological foundations of Milošević-led Serbian war campaigns in the political influence of Dobrica Ćosić and his platform of “unification of Serbs.” Second, it contributes to the vigorous debate regarding the possible deal between Milošević and the Croatian president Franjo Tuđman for the division of BiH. It confirms that negotiations took place, but that Milošević and his associates had no intention of respecting any agreement and wanted the whole of BiH until at least late 1991. Third, it provides indications that Milošević held the position of the de facto commander-in-chief in the operations of the Yugoslav People's Army in Croatia and BiH. And fourth, it establishes that the two institutions of force Milošević had direct legal control over—Serbia's State Security Service and Ministry of Interior—were his principal means of control over Croatian and Bosnian Serbs and instruments in the aggression against BiH even after its international recognition.

[more ▼] This paper presents ways of implementing dependable distributed applications designed using the Coordinated Atomic Action (CAA) paradigm. CAAs provide a coherent set of concepts adapted to fault tolerant distributed system design that includes structured transactions, distribution, cooperation, competition, and forward and backward error recovery mechanisms triggered by exceptions. DRIP (Dependable Remote Interacting Processes) is an efficient Java implementation framework which provides support for implementing Dependable Multiparty Interactions (DMI). As DMIs have a softer exception handling semantics compared with the CAA semantics, a CAA design can be implemented using the DRIP framework. A new framework called CAA-DRIP allows programmers to exclusively implement the semantics of CAAs using the same terminology and concepts at the design and implementation levels. The new framework not only simplifies the implementation phase, but also reduces the final system size as it requires less number of instances for creating a CAA at runtime. The paper analyses both implementation frameworks in great detail, drawing a systematic comparison of the two. The CAAs behaviour is described in terms of Statecharts to better understand the differences between the two frameworks. Based on the results of the comparison, we use one of the frameworks to implement a case study belonging to the e-health domain.

[more ▼] Fault-tolerance protocols play an important role in today long runtime scienti\ufb01c parallel applications. The probability of a failure may be important due to the number of unreliable components involved during an execution. We present our approach and preliminary results about a new checkpoint/rollback protocol based on a coordinated scheme. The application is described using a dataflow graph, which is an abstract representation of the execution. Thanks to this representation, the fault recovery in our protocol only requires a partial restart of other processes. Simulations on a domain decomposition application show that the amount of computations required to restart and the number of involved processes are reduced compared to the classical global rollback protocol.
