Very Large-Scale Systems and Some History

چکیده

.......This issue marks the first special issue developed under my editorship. Guest editors Natalie Enright Jerger and Mikko Lipasti have done a fine job recruiting five excellent articles on the theme of systems for very large-scale computing. We are seeing a proliferation of styles for very large-scale computing— from data centers for commercial computing to highly distributed efforts like SETI@home or ProteinFolding@home, and from systems composed of highperformance processors like Blue Waters to systems relying on GPUs for most of their performance, like the Tianhe-1A system (ranked #1 in the Top500 as I write this), to specialized systems like D.E. Shaw’s Anton system (see page 8). With so much variation and flux, it is important to study such systems so we can understand how best to proceed with future systems.

Unit commitment by a fast and new analytical non-iterative method using IPPD table and “λ-logic” algorithm

Many different methods have been presented to solve unit commitment (UC) problem in literature with different advantages and disadvantages. The need for multiple runs, huge computational burden and time, and poor convergence are some of the disadvantages, where are especially considerable in large scale systems. In this paper, a new analytical and non-iterative method is presented to solve UC p...

ON THE FUZZY SET THEORY AND AGGREGATION FUNCTIONS: HISTORY AND SOME RECENT ADVANCES

Several fuzzy connectives, including those proposed by Lotfi Zadeh, can be seen as linear extensions of the Boolean connectives from the scale ${0,1}$ into the scale $[0,1]$. We discuss these extensions, in particular, we focus on the dualities arising from the Boolean dualities. These dualities allow to transfer the results from some particular class of extended Boolean functions, e.g., from c...

Employing Nonlinear Response History Analysis of ASCE 7-16 on a Benchmark Tall Building

ASCE 7-16 has provided a comprehensive platform for the performance-based design of tall buildings. The core of the procedure is based on nonlinear response history analysis of the structure subjected to recorded or simulated ground motions. This study investigates consistency in the ASCE 7-16 requirements regarding the use of different types of ground motions. For this purpose performance of a...

Centralized Clustering Method To Increase Accuracy In Ontology Matching Systems

Ontology is the main infrastructure of the Semantic Web which provides facilities for integration, searching and sharing of information on the web. Development of ontologies as the basis of semantic web and their heterogeneities have led to the existence of ontology matching. By emerging large-scale ontologies in real domain, the ontology matching systems faced with some problem like memory con...
