Identifying tranquil environments and quantifying impacts

Identifying and Quantifying Orphan Protein Sequences

Identifying , Quantifying , Extracting and Enhancing Implicit Parallelism

The shift of the microprocessor industry towards multicore architectures has placed a huge burden on the programmers by requiring explicit parallelization for performance. Implicit Parallelization is an alternative that could ease the burden on programmers by parallelizing applications “under the covers” while maintaining sequential semantics externally. This thesis develops a novel approach fo...

Impacts on Marine Environments

our blue planet, the oceans dominate the earth in a variety of ways. With an average depth of almost 4 km, they provide over 99 percent of the habitable space for life on earth (Woodard 2000:31). As human populations have grown exponentially over the past century, and with 60 percent of the world’s population living within 100 km of the coast, many have looked to the oceans as a source of hope ...

Towards Identifying and Monitoring Optimization Impacts

Optimizing compilers apply code-improving transformations in phases over a source program in an eeort to emit the fastest or most compact executable code possible. The eeectiveness of these optimizations is limited by phase-ordering problems, manifested as interactions among optimizations and the attending impact on system resource utilization. Incorporating into each optimization module an awa...

Into Identifying Effective Learning Environments

There are a range of ‘top down’ imperatives which have driven such an approach, including the need to sustainably finance educational infrastructure and show evidence as to how this money is being spent successfully. This need is emerging following the funding approaches now being taken by such bodies as the European Investment Bank and in Public Private Partnerships. On the other hand ‘bottom ...
