The bulk-synchronous parallel (BSP) model provides a framework for writing parallel programs with predictable performance. In this paper we extend the BSP model to support what we will call pseudo-streaming algorithms for accelerators. We also generalize the BSP cost function to these algorithms, so that it is possible to predict the running time for programs targeting many-core accelerators an...

The aim of the present study was to compare sealing abilities of Resilon/Epiphany (R/E) with those of guttapercha and Kerr Pulp Canal Sealer EWT (GP/PCS). 50 single rooted teeth were randomly divided into 2 groups (n = 22) (R/E; GP/PCS), and 2 control groups (n = 3) (Positive, Negative). Fluid flow rate through the filled roots was measured using a fluid filtration device. The same specimens we...

INTRODUCTION The aim of this study was to evaluate the apical and coronal seal of endodontic filling promoted by the combined use of Sealer 26/gutta-percha, Endofill/gutta-percha and Resilon/ Epiphany. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 38 extracted human canine teeth were selected; 10 teeth for each test group and 4 for each control group. After conducting conventional endodontic treatment, th...

The Super-Kamiokande data [1] clearly indicate a νμ/νe ratio in the atmosphere that is significantly smaller than the theoretical expectations. The most natural way to explain this deviation is by introducing νμ–ντ oscillations, with δmνμντ ≈ (10−2 to 10−3) eV2 and sin 2θμτ ≥ 0.85. Alternative schemes with dominant νμ → νe oscillations are excluded by both the Super-Kamiokande data on electron-...

The research method used a qualitative approach literature studies. results concluded communities are people who understand concepts tolerance. Since long time ago, have always mainta...

the sacred art of islam has undoubtedly been born with the calligraphy of the holy quran. afterwards, it was completed and evolved with decorating of this magnificent manifest. this process has had great effects on all fields of islamic art. in this research, the writer has discussed about the procedure of scribing the holy quran in the life time of the holy prophet (p.b.u.h) as well as the tim...

As a result of the epiphany of giant multinational media conglomerates, transnational trade networks and the politics of globalization, it is tempting to believe that individual and national identities have morphed. This article argues that such homogenization in relation to individuation is tedious to accept. It draws from theories of symbolic interactionism, social psychology, Foucauldian, an...

This paper presents and justifies an open benchmark suite named BEEBS, targeted at evaluating the energy consumption of embedded processors. We explore the possible sources of energy consumption, then select individual benchmarks from contemporary suites to cover these areas. Version one of BEEBS is presented here and contains 10 benchmarks that cover a wide range of typical embedded applicatio...

Dynamic monitoring of software and system health of a complex cyber-physical system requires observers that continuously monitor variables of the embedded software in order to detect anomalies and reason about their root causes. There exists a variety of techniques for code instrumentation, but instrumentation might change runtime behavior and could require costly software re-certification. In ...
