This paper presents the Impulse adaptable memory system, which allows applications to make efficient use of cache space and bus bandwidth. Impulse has a configurable memory controller that allows applications to remap data in the memory system. As a result, applications can control how their data is accessed, organized, and cached. We describe the current design of the Impulse architecture, des...

Two rheumatoid arthritis drugs will now be used to treat the patients with severe covid-19 in intensive care, after new findings have shown that they significantly improve survival and cut time spent hospital by a week 10 days. Results from REMAP-CAP trial showed interleukin 6 receptor antagonists tocilizumab sarilumab reduced mortality 35.8% 27.3% compared standard care—an absolute reduction ...

With the expansion of model scale and improvement accuracy, real-time rendering displaying 3D mesh models remain infeasible. To relieve such pressure, simplification methods have been proposed to reduce structural complexity while preserving appearance. This work introduces a shape-preserving method for urban building models. Compared traditional that only consider local geometric features, we ...

Changes in the framework, methodology, and indicators used by World Economic Forum (WEF) measuring ranking competitiveness of world tourism through Travel Tourism Development Index (TTDI) have implications for Indonesian government policies achieving target rankings. By using a qualitative descriptive approach, documentation study techniques data collection, this policy aims to provide an overv...

Recent advances in machine learning and computer vision have made it simple to manipulate a variety of media, including satellite images. Most the commercially available images go through process orthorectification remove potential distortions due terrain variations. This typically involves use rational polynomial coefficients (RPC) that geometrically remap pixels original image rectified image...

We investigated the effect of unseen hand posture on cross-modal, visuo-tactile links in covert spatial attention. In Experiment 1, a spatially nonpredictive visual cue was presented to the left or right hemifield shortly before a tactile target on either hand. To examine the spatial coordinates of any cross-modal cuing, the unseen hands were either uncrossed or crossed so that the left hand la...

Hip dysplasia (HD), elbow dysplasia (ED), and rupture of the cranial (anterior) cruciate ligament (RCCL) are the most common complex orthopedic traits of dogs and all result in debilitating osteoarthritis. We reanalyzed previously reported data: the Norberg angle (a quantitative measure of HD) in 921 dogs, ED in 113 cases and 633 controls, and RCCL in 271 cases and 399 controls and their genoty...
