river bank erosion can result in considerable riparian land loss and the delivery of large volumes of sediment to reaches downstream. consequently, the ability to predict the stability and failure geometry of eroding river banks is an important prerequisite for es-timating the rate of bank erosion and sediment yield associated with bank erosion. in this paper a new model capable of analyzing th...

CUDA shared memory is fast, on-chip storage. However, the bank conflict issue could cause a performance bottleneck. Current NVIDIA Tesla GPUs support memory bank accesses with configurable bit-widths. While this feature provides an efficient bank mapping scheme for 32-bit and 64-bit data types, it becomes trickier to solve the bank conflict problem through manual code tuning. This paper present...

This paper examines what institutional and bank-specific factors determine bank stock price synchronicity. Using data on 37 countries from 1996-2007, we find that bank stocks are more aligned with the whole market (1) during the financial crisis; (2) in countries that have more credit provided by banks; (3) in countries that do not have explicit depository insurance; and (4) in countries that h...
