Charging computer scientists to develop the science needed best achieve performance and cost goals of accelerator-level parallelism hardware software.

This paper estimates and simulates a sticky-price dynamic stochastic general-equilibrium model with a financial accelerator, à la Bernanke et al. [Bernanke, B., Gertler, M., Gilchrist, S., 1999. The financial accelerator in a quantitative business cycle framework. In: Handbook of Macroeconomics. North-Holland, Amsterdam], to assess the importance of the financial accelerator mechanism in fittin...

A self-organizing network according to a modiied Kohonen algorithm was used for the identiication of 272 Events of pp-bremsstrahlung in a pp-scattering experiment at the SATURNE accelerator at T beam =1.0 GeV. 1. Identiication of the pp-bremsstrahlung One of the experimental goals being pursued by means of the TOF-spectrometer 1] at the COSY accelerator at the Forschungszentrum J ulich is the m...

PURPOSE The purpose of this guideline is to provide a list of critical performance tests in order to assist the Qualified Medical Physicist (QMP) in establishing and maintaining a safe and effective quality assurance (QA) program. The performance tests on a linear accelerator (linac) should be selected to fit the clinical patterns of use of the accelerator and care should be given to perform te...

A study of the electron beam dynamics in the linac is conducted for the FERMI free electron laser (FEL) founded for construction at the Sincrotrone Trieste [1]. LAYOUT AND DESIGN PARAMETERS The FERMI accelerator layout is schematically shown in Figure 1. It consists of an injector, four linacs, two bunch compressors, a laser heater, and a spreader used to direct the electron beam into one of tw...

To maximize performance and power efficiency, future multi-core architectures may be heterogeneous, incorporating some accelerator cores alongside the IA cores. Accelerator Exoskeletons provide a shared virtual memory heterogeneous multi-threaded programming paradigm for these accelerators using novel CPU instruction set extensions and software tool chains with an Intel Architecture (IA) look-n...
