Charm: A charming network coordinate system
نویسنده
چکیده
We present a new network coordinate system, Charm, embedding round-trip time latencies into a Euclidean space. Charm is based on a particle system model with two spatial force interactions: attraction and repulsion. The update algorithm (Charming) that Charm uses is simple and lightweight: At each latency sample, the algorithm either “attracts” the communicating nodes to each other or “repels” them from each other. We evaluate Charm by comparing with Vivaldi algorithm using simulations. Preliminary results suggests that Charm is fast and stable, has good converging rates.

We show that the presence of intrinsic charm in the hadrons’ light-cone wave functions, even at a few percent level, provides new, competitive decay mechanisms for B decays which are nominally CKM-suppressed. For example, the weak decays of the B-meson to two-body exclusive states consisting of strange plus light hadrons, such as B → πK, are expected to be dominated by penguin contributions sin...
متن کاملCharming Exascale Power Problems
Power, energy and reliability present major challenges to HPC researchers in their endeavor to build larger machines. As we approach the exascale era, both hardware and software designers need to account for these challenges while optimizing performance. The Parallel Programming Laboratory (PPL) at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign (UIUC) has been actively working on meeting these ...
متن کاملCharming penguin and direct CP-violation in charmless B decays
In the study of two-body charmlessB decays as a mean of looking for direct CP-violation and measuring the CKM mixing parameters in the Standard Model, the short-distance penguin contribution with its absorptive part generated by charm quark loop seems capable of producing sufficient B → Kπ decays rates, as obtained in factorization and QCD-improved factorization models. However there are also l...
متن کاملIntrinsic Charm in B-meson Decays
Light cone hadron wave functions support Fock states of arbitrarily high particle number: their heavy quark content arises naturally through QCD interactions. We discuss what role c¯ c pairs, intrinsic to a hadron's structure, can play in B-meson decays. The effects can be prominent in hadronic decays for which the tree-level contributions are Cabibbo-suppressed, as in B → πK decay, and they mi...
متن کاملIntegration of artificial neural network and geographic information system applications in simulating groundwater quality
Background: Although experiments on water quality are time consuming and expensive, models are often employed as supplement to simulate water quality. Artificial neural network (ANN) is an efficient tool in hydrologic studies, yet it cannot predetermine its results in the forms of maps and geo-referenced data. Methods: In this study, ANN was applied to simulate groundwater quality ...
