Due to the constant development in the automotive industry, where high performance shared with the maximal comfort and safety at low car body weight are the primary goals, gains the lightweight construction in importance. Materials with light weight, high strength and toughness are being engaged. With this background the material aluminum and its alloys become highly attractive to manufacturers. There are mainly two ways of forming the metal materials: casting or forming. Apart from substitution of one method by another there are also many examples of combining of casting and forging processes in practice. Such approach allows using the advantages of both methods, shortening the process chains and saving energy and resources at the same time. Furthermore the form flexibility can be increased and the product quality can be improved. For higher process efficiency a direct transition from casting to forging operation should be applied, so that the heat loss decreases and no additional heat treatment between these operations is necessary. There are processes known, which allow producing the final parts by casting and forging from one a single heat. The application of such processes requires materials, which have simultaneously good casting and forging properties. The Institute of Metal forming TU Freiberg works intensively on development of combined casting-forging technologies for lightweight aluminum parts. A technological chain for this coupled process followed by precipitation hardening heat treatment was developed (Figure 1). Heat treatable aluminum cast and wrought alloys with 1 – 7 % silicon were applied. By the variation of silicon content the optimal cast, forging and hardening properties were achieved. This technology with high energy efficiency allows producing durable light weight parts from aluminum alloys while the mechanical properties of the final parts are equal to or even higher than those in the conventional processes.

The recent byte-addressable and large-capacity commercialized persistent memory (PM) is promising to drive database as a service (DBaaS) into unchartered territories. This paper investigates how to leverage PMs to revisit the conventional LSM-tree based OLTP storage engines designed for DRAM-SSD hierarchy for DBaaS instances. Specifically we (1) propose a light-weight PM allocator named Hal-loc customized for LSM-tree, (2) build a high-performance Semi-persistent Memtable utilizing the persistent in-memory writes of PM, (3) design a concurrent commit algorithm named Reorder Ring to aschieve log-free transaction processing for OLTP workloads and (4) present a Global Index as the new globally sorted persistent level with non-blocking in-memory compaction. The design of Reorder Ring and Semi-persistent Memtable achieves fast writes without synchronized logging overheads and achieves near instant recovery time. Moreover, the design of Semi-persistent Memtable and Global Index with in-memory compaction enables the byte-addressable persistent levels in PM, which significantly reduces the read and write amplification as well as the background compaction overheads. The overall evaluation shows that the performance of our proposal over PM-SSD hierarchy outperforms the baseline by up to 3.8x in YCSB benchmark and by 2x in TPC-C benchmark.

The high performance engine, whether military or commercial, is essentially the light one.The motor which made flying possible was an internal combustion engine, and the basic reason of its success was the direct use of an easily volatile fuel of high heat value, namely, petrol.The first engine developed to use this fuel was that of Daimler, and all motor-car, boat and aviation engines have sprung from this engine.In order to more readily have in mind our problem, we can with advantage briefly run through the main aero engines so far constructed with the progressive results of tests.The engine of Gottlieb Daimler is illustrated by Slide No. I. It had automatic inlet valves and exhaust governing, the latter being a point to be noted.The next slide shows the engine of the Wright Brothers. This engine weighed 8.75 lbs. per B.H.P. inclusive; the most successful engine of to-day weighs under 3 lbs. inclusive.
