Hi, I'm developing a thread safe class that I'll use as cache, it should work in .NET and Mono. The items have a time to live, and every time that a object is retrieved, its time to live is refreshed. Each time that I add a item, the timestamp is added to another collection that holds the same keys. A timer raises the method that look...

This is the pseudo code I am given: int mutex = 0; do { while (TestAndSet(&mutex)); // critical section mutiex = 0; // remainder section } while (TRUE); My instructor says that only two of the three necessary conditions (mutual exclusion, progress, and bounded ...

I have found all of these different types of synchronizations, each with a number of functions for locking, unlocking, testing the lock, ...
Our development team uses Eclipse + Aptana to do their web development work. Currently, most of them are mapping their Eclipse projects directly to the web server. I'd rather them create a local project and use that to sync to the web server project directory they are working on. The issue is that there aren't any good solutions whi...
I have a system that takes Samples. I have multiple client threads in the application that are interested in these Samples, but the actual process of taking a Sample can only occur in one context. It's fast enough that it's okay for it to block the calling process until Sampling is done, but slow enough that I don't want multiple threa...
My web application returns a file from the filesystem. These files are dynamic, so I have no way to know the names o how many of them will there be. When this file doesn't exist, the application creates it from the database. I want to avoid that two different threads recreate the same file at the same time, or that a thread try to return...
Imagine you have a web site that you want to send a lot of data. Say 40 files totaling the equivalence of 2 hours of upload bandwidth. You expect to have 3 connection losses along the way (think: mobile data connection, WLAN vs. microwave). You can't be bothered to retry again and again. This should be automated. Interruptions should not...

Help me figure out a solution to a (not so unique) problem. My research group has gps devices attached to migratory animals. Every once in a while, a research tech will be within range of an animal and will get the chance to download all the logged points. Each individual spits out a single dbf and new locations are just appended to the...
Hello, I have a class that is stored on the 'server' and multiple clients can call this method. This method returns a class. Now when clients call accessor methods within this class for example a set accessor method. I want the object on the server to be updated and synchronized across all the other clients. How do I use: public synch...
I'm putting together a custom SynchronizedCollection<T> class so that I can have a synchronized Observable collection for my WPF application. The synchronization is provided via a ReaderWriterLockSlim, which, for the most part, has been easy to apply. The case I'm having trouble with is how to provide thread-safe enumeration of the col...

I have now to implement a logging strategy, I'm gonna use log4net, but ... what and how should I log?

I've been using the Jcraft SFTP plugin for Team Synchronisation up till now but I ran across a rumour it's being deprecated by "Target Management". Still, despite my best efforts I haven't found any information on HOW you are supposed to setup a sync with RSE/Target Management. Can anybody provide a step-by-step guide or at least clarifi...
Hello everyone, I'm planning a project for managing multiple distributed databases and I am raising the question of how to efficiently synchronize the data. The project will be developed with technology. NET and SQL Server. There will be a local database in which the company will load data, some of these data (not all) should be synchr...
This is a less a question with a simple, practical answer and more a question to foster discussion on the real-time data exchange topic. I'll begin with an example: Google Wave is, at its core, a real-time asynchronous data synchronization engine. Wave supports (or plans to support) concurrent (real-time) document collaboration, discon...
