The greatest utility of sentinel lymph node (SLN) assessment is the avoidance of lymph node dissection and related morbidity. Another potential utility is the ability to direct pathologic examination and more sensitive techniques to detect occult micrometastatic disease. New pathologic methods can identify single tumor cells or even genetic material within a single lymph node station, bringing ...

This work presents a performance evaluation of single node and subdomain communication schemes available in EdgeCFD, an implicit edgebased coupled fluid flow and transport code for solving large scale problems in modern clusters. A natural convection flow problem is considered to assess performance metrics. Tests, focused in single node multi-core performance, show that past Intel Xeon processo...

The Hierarchical Assembly Graph (HAG) is a common representation for geometric models. The HAG is a directed acyclic graph. Nodes in the graph represent objects, and arcs denote the sub-part relation between objects. Affine transformations and other instantiation parameters are attached to the arcs. An instance of an object in a HAG is defined as a path ending at its node. Information common to...
