Experiments in Dynamic Load Balancing for Parallel Cluster Computing
In academic and industrial institutions, a shift of emphasis in High Performance Computing from parallel monolithes to clusters of high performance workstations is taking place. These loosely coupled parallel systems require new programming paradigms and environments that provide the user with tools to explore the full potential of the available distributed resources. Although such cluster comp...
متن کاملEstablishing a new animal model for muscle regeneration studies
Skeletal muscle injuries are one of the most common problems in the worldwide which impose a substantial financial burden to the health care system. Accordingly, it widely accepted that muscle regeneration is a promising approach that can be used to treat muscle injury patients. However, the underlying mechanisms of muscle regeneration have yet to be elucidated. The muscle structure and muscle...
متن کاملDynamic Load Balancing in GPU-Based Systems - Early Experiments
The dynamic load-balancing framework in Charm++/AMPI, developed at the University of Illinois, is based on using processor virtualization to allow thread migration across processors. This framework has been successfully applied to many scientific applications in the past, such as BRAMS, NAMD, ChaNGa, and others. Most of these applications use only CPUs to perform their operations. However, the ...
متن کاملProgrammable Muscle Stimulator for Activating Paralytic Patients
Defective muscles and associated nerves affect the functioning of the parts of the human body leading to paralysis. In order to provide temporal recovery from paralysis the affected muscles can be identified and stimulated in a periodic sequence by driving required electrical current intensity into the muscle. The amplitude, frequency and pulse width of the muscle current are adjusted to see th...
متن کاملExperiments with a programmable master hearing aid.
A series of experiments is described tracing the development and application of adaptive paired-comparison testing to the prescriptive fitting of hearing aids. The equipment needed to implement the test procedures became progressively more complex with each new experiment, leading to the development of a digital master hearing aid.
