Software cache coherence schemes are very desirable in the design of scalable multiprocessors and massively parallel processors. The authors propose a software cache coherence scheme named ‘delayed precise invalidation’ (DPI). DPI is based on compiler-time markings of references and a hardware local invalidation of stale data in parallel and selectively. With a small amount of additional hardwa...

Modern Distributed Shared Memory (DSM) systems offer high speed application processing by allowing to use relaxed consistency models, such as processor consistency. Unfortunately, most of the existing coherence protocols implementing relaxed consistency in multiprocessors or loosely couples clusters use write-update strategy which incurs large communication overhead, and therefore is impractica...

Primary dystonia has been associated with an underlying dysfunction of a wide network of brain regions including the motor cortex, basal ganglia, cerebellum, brainstem and spinal cord. Dystonia can be effectively treated by pallidal deep brain stimulation although the mechanism of this effect is not well understood. Here, we sought to characterize cortico-basal ganglia functional connectivity u...

Strictly incoherent operations (SIO) proposed in [Phys. Rev. Lett. 116, 120404 (2016)] are promising to be a good candidate of free the resource theory quantum coherence, setting against central role local and classical communication entanglement. An important open problem is an efficient description for strictly physical region. Such plays key axiomatic study coherence. We aimed give structura...

Thalamomuscular coherence in essential tremor (ET) has consistently been detected in numerous neurophysiological studies. Thereby, spatial properties of coherence indicate a differentiated, somatotopic organization; so far, however, little attention has been paid to temporal aspects of this interdependency. Further insight into the relationship between tremor onset and the onset of coherence co...

Neural activity across the brain shows both spatial and temporal correlations at multiple scales, and understanding these correlations is a key step toward understanding cortical processing. Correlation in the local field potential (LFP) recorded from two brain areas is often characterized by computing the coherence, which is generally taken to reflect the degree of phase consistency across tri...

Implementation of inquiry-based curriculum materials has been a challenge in science education. Recent research points to the importance of coherence in professional development as a means to improving implementation. Policy researchers have defined coherence in terms of alignment of standards, curriculum, and assessment is key to supporting implementation, while teacher learning researchers ha...

In summarization, sentence ordering is conducted to enhance summary readability by accommodating text coherence. We propose a grouping-based ordering framework that integrates local and global coherence concerns. Summary sentences are grouped before ordering is applied on two levels: group-level and sentence-level. Different algorithms for grouping and ordering are discussed. The preliminary re...

We study phase synchronization (PS) of coupled chaotic oscillators as a result of an interplay between local coupling and global noise. In the weak coupling region, noise first significantly enhances spatiotemporal PS, but it spoils the phase coherence of chaotic oscillation and reduces the degree of synchronization at large intensities. The spatiotemporal behavior exhibits coherence resonance....
