The transition to multicore architectures has dramatically underscored the necessity for parallelism in software. In particular, while new gaming consoles are by and large multicore, most existing video game engines are essentially sequential and thus cannot easily take advantage of this hardware. In this paper we describe techniques derived from our experience parallelizing an open-source vide...

Parallelism asks, “How can we break a program up into independently executing parts?” It is very much in the domain of compiler writers and library providers, as the necessary program...

Bargaining with reading habit is no need. Reading is not kind of something sold that you can take or not. It is a thing that will change your life to life better. It is the thing that will give you many things around the world and this universe, in the real world and here after. As what will be given by this concurrent programming in java design principles and patterns, how can you bargain with...

Even though the Agent Oriented Programming (AOP) paradigm has been introduced over 20 years ago, the following is still modest. We believe this is partially due to the lack of the community to address such real world issues as concurrency and distribution. In this paper we take a look at the possibility of combining elements from the Join Calculus, namely join patterns with an AOP programming l...

OBJECTIVE 342 Caucasian subjects with attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) were recruited from pediatric and behavioral health clinics for a genetic study. Concurrent comorbidity was assessed to characterize the clinical profile of this cohort. METHODS Subjects 6 to 18 years were diagnosed with the Schedule for Affective Disorders & Schizophrenia for School aged Children (K-SADS-P ...

Asynchronous signal handling introduces fine-grained concurrency into sequential programs making them prone to data races. Unfortunately, existing tools for detecting data races in sequential programs that use concurrent signal handlers fail to provide effective means for understanding the dynamic behavior of concurrent signal handlers involved in data races. Thus, this paper presents a visuali...

this paper seeks to make an empirical analysis of the degree to which the research effort andfunctional integration into the design of environmental activity account for a company’s environmental actionbasedcompetitive advantage. to do so, we have used a sample of 110 factories. it has been proven that bothfactors (the research effort and functional integration into the design of environmental ...

Nanostructured surfaces with quasi-random geometries can manipulate light over broadband wavelengths and wide ranges of angles. Optimization and realization of stochastic patterns have typically relied on serial, direct-write fabrication methods combined with real-space design. However, this approach is not suitable for customizable features or scalable nanomanufacturing. Moreover, trial-and-er...
