Modern cloud providers offer dense hardware with multiple cores and large memories, hosted in global platforms. This raises the challenge of implementing high-performance software systems that can effectively scale from a single core to multicore to the globe. Conventional wisdom says that software designed for one scale point needs to be rewritten when scaling up by 10 − 100× . In contrast, we explore how a system can be architected to scale across many orders of magnitude by design. We explore this challenge in the context of a new key-value store system called Anna: a partitioned, multi-mastered system that achieves high performance and elasticity via wait-free execution and coordination-free consistency. Our design rests on a simple architecture of coordination-free actors that perform state update via merge of lattice-based composite data structures. We demonstrate that a wide variety of consistency models can be elegantly implemented in this architecture with unprecedented consistency, smooth fine-grained elasticity, and performance that far exceeds the state of the art.

Rehabilitation movement assessment often requires patients to wear expensive and inconvenient sensors or optical markers. To address this issue, we propose a non-contact and real-time approach using a lightweight pose detection algorithm-Sports Rehabilitation-Pose (SR-Pose), and a depth camera for accurate assessment of rehabilitation movement. Our approach utilizes an E-Shufflenet network to extract underlying features of the target, a RLE-Decoder module to directly regress the coordinate values of 16 key points, and a Weight Fusion Unit (WFU) module to output optimal human posture detection results. By combining the detected human pose information with depth information, we accurately calculate the angle between each joint in three-dimensional space. Furthermore, we apply the DTW algorithm to solve the distance measurement and matching problem of video sequences with different lengths in rehabilitation evaluation tasks. Experimental results show that our method can detect human joint nodes with an average detection speed of 14.32ms and an average detection accuracy for pose of 91.2%, demonstrating its computational efficiency and effectiveness for practical application. Our proposed approach provides a low-cost and user-friendly alternative to traditional sensor-based methods, making it a promising solution for rehabilitation movement assessment.
