  • 2012-13 Media Guide
    A staple in the New York region and an emerging program on the nationalQuick stage, the Facts Manhattanville and College Athletic Contents Department continues to bolster its reputation as a program on the rise in all areas: athletic achievement, academic success and overall participation. More than 325 Valiant student-athletes (nearly 20 percent of the student body) took part in intercollegiate athletics during the 2011-12 school year showcasing the continued and rapid growth of athletics at Manhattanville. With women’s golf beginning play as a varsity sport in 2012-13, the program now sponsors 20 competitive intercollegiate teams – including eight teams that have been established or re-established since 2007 alone. And teams at Manhattanville do not just compete, they win. Three teams earned conference regular-season or tournament championships in 2011-12 and two Valiant squads (men’s soccer and men’s golf) made an appearance in the NCAA Tournament. Fifteen of 21 Valiant squads earned berths in their respective conference championships last year, including the third straight title and seventh in 11 seasons for men’s golf. In addition, the men’s hockey, men’s golf and women’s hockey teams all received national rankings over the course of the year. On an individual level, many Valiant student-athletes were honored in 2011-12 as well, led by All-America selections Eros Olazabal (men’s soccer) and Dan Fiorito (baseball). Manhattanville also boasted three Freedom Conference Players of the Year and two Freedom Rookies of the Year to go with 47 combined All-Conference honorees. In recent years, at least 35 former Valiants have gone on to play their sport professionally either domestically or overseas as well.

  • Evolutionary Tree-Structured Storage: Concepts, Interfaces, and Applications
    Evolutionary Tree-Structured Storage: Concepts, Interfaces, and Applications Dissertation submitted for the degree of Doctor of Natural Sciences Presented by Marc Yves Maria Kramis at the Faculty of Sciences Department of Computer and Information Science Date of the oral examination: 22.04.2014 First supervisor: Prof. Dr. Marcel Waldvogel Second supervisor: Prof. Dr. Marc Scholl i Abstract Life is subdued to constant evolution. So is our data, be it in research, business or personal information management. From a natural, evolutionary perspective, our data evolves through a sequence of fine-granular modifications resulting in myriads of states, each describing our data at a given point in time. From a technical, anti- evolutionary perspective, mainly driven by technological and financial limitations, we treat the modifications as transient commands and only store the latest state of our data. It is surprising that the current approach is to ignore the natural evolution and to willfully forget about the sequence of modifications and therefore the past state. Sticking to this approach causes all kinds of confusion, complexity, and performance issues. Confusion, because we still somehow want to retrieve past state but are not sure how. Complexity, because we must repeatedly work around our own obsolete approaches. Performance issues, because confusion times complexity hurts. It is not surprising, however, that intelligence agencies notoriously try to collect, store, and analyze what the broad public willfully forgets. Significantly faster and cheaper random-access storage is the key driver for a paradigm shift towards remembering the sequence of modifications. We claim that (1) faster storage allows to efficiently and cleverly handle finer-granular modifi- cations and (2) that mandatory versioning elegantly exposes past state, radically simplifies the applications, and effectively lays a solid foundation for backing up, distributing and scaling of our data.
