Any code that parallelizes computational work is required to come up with a method to load balance the work across the available processors. Most codes of this nature use some heuristic to decide how to perform this load balancing. In essence, they must have a (cheap) method of coming up with a number to act as a proxy for dividing up the actual computational work. For some applications that us...

When a self-localized quasiparticle excitation propagates along a discrete one-dimensional lattice, it becomes subject to a dissipation that converts the kinetic energy into lattice vibrations. Eventually the kinetic energy no longer enables the excitation to cross over the minimum energy barrier between neighboring sites, and the excitation becomes localized within a lattice cell. In the case ...

Higher core counts and increasing focus on energy efficiency in modern Chip Multiprocessors (CMP) have led to renewed interest in simple and energy-efficient Network-on-Chip (NoC) designs. Several recent proposed designs trade off network capacity for efficiency, based on the observation that traditional networks are overprovisioned for many workloads. Bufferless routing is one such example. Ho...

is known from the work of ESPOSITO and HOLLIDAY (1964) that fluorodeoxy‘:ridhe (FUDR) is a powerful inducer of mitotic crossing over in Ustilago. Recombination was also induced by GALLANT and SPOTTSWOOD (1965), causing thymidilate starvation through the action of FUDR. HOLLIDAY (1964a) has proposed that agents that increase recombination should be called ‘Lrecombinagens.” The purpose of the pre...

relationship of a recombinational event within a gene and crossing over T?etween linked ger,es has been explored by many investigators in recent years. Attempts have been made to discover whether a single exchange-mechanism exists to produce both inter-locus and intra-locus recombination. In several instances (for review see FREESE 1957; NELSON 1962), results have been obtained which indicate t...

Over the past three decade, parallel and distributed computing witnessed major growth due to the declined cost of hardware, advancement in communication technology, explosive growth of internet and need to solve large-scale problems. These systems often face the problem of load imbalance, which can degrade the performance of the system. Load balancing improves the system performance by dividing...

laguerre function has many advantages such as good approximation capability for different systems, low computational complexity and the facility of on-line parameter identification. therefore, it is widely adopted for complex industrial process control. in this work, laguerre function based adaptive model predictive control algorithm (ampc) was implemented to control continuous stirred tank rea...
