In this paper we present an eecient design for message passing over a reeective memory network. First, we consider the attributes of reeec-tive memory communication networks and the requirements to eeciently build message-passing functional-ity on these networks. We then introduce the Bill-Board Protocol, a lock-free protocol which provides low-latency send, receive, and multicast functionality...

Abstract: In this paper, we present algorithms for efficiently implementing three collective communication operations on reflective memory network clusters: Broadcast, Barrier Synchronization and All-Reduce. These algor...

Two sets of opaque water-based acrylic coatings were prepared with IR-reflective pigments and conventional pigments. The objective of this work was to determine the efficiency of IR-reflective pigments in limiting the heat buildup of opaque coating formulations. Experiments performed on PVC substrates revealed that IR-reflective pigments significantly decreased the temperature increase above ro...

In this project we forward insights about the importance of being in ‘the room where it happens’ – creating tactility and togetherness research encounter for with children young people times COVID-19 pandemic beyond. Created response to intense uptake digital methods catalysed by COVID-19, productively re-imagine moments from our creative visual before pandemic. This re-imagining began early 20...

Films are important tools of communication, expression, and perception the world in teaching learning process. The present article aimed to analyze discourses that emerged from cinematographic work, having conversation circle as a strategy for problematizing bioethics work process teachers, students, health workers. This is descriptive study with qualitative approach, data collected an intervie...

Children state that among their worst fears during hospitalization are those related to various nursing procedures and to injections and needles. Nurses thus have a responsibility to help children cope with needle-related medical procedures (NRMP) and the potentially negative effects of these. The aim of the study is to describe the lived experience of supporting children during NRMP, from the ...

This paper aimed at manifesting the role of significant attributes of conversation analysis in social interviews from a functional perspective. In this paper the concern would be on how these attributes of conversation analysis acted as important elements in analyzing the interviews. In particular, the author discussed some samples of B.B.C learning English interviews which considered some conv...
