In this paper, two non-linear technologies are proposed based on weak disposability definitions: weak disposability with non-uniform abatement factors and new weak disposability. Both technologies are applied to Spanish airport systems and the existing technologies are modified. To remove the computational complexity of non-linear approaches, the linearization methods are proposed. Then, in ord...

The purpose of the Emerging Technologies project to which this work belongs, is to compare the applicability of cluster computers to various problems to that of conventional supercomputers. This article details the rewriting of an existing Particle-In-Cell electrostatic simulation code targeted at SMP computers to a message-passing approach, and a comparison of the results obtained when running...
