A review with 75 refs. of calorimetric techniques used and results obtained in calorimetric expts. aimed at developing quant. relation between heat release and other important process parameters for potential use in monitoring and controlling tech. bioproc ...
Future parallel computers must efficiently execute not only hand-coded applications but also programs written in high-level, parallel programming languages. Today’s machines limit these programs to a single communication paradigm, either message-passing or ...
We study the relation between the solutions of two minimization
problems with indebite quadratic forms. We show that a complete link between both solutions can be established by invoking a fundamental set of inertia conditions. While these inertia condit ...
Message passing and shared memory are two techniques parallel programs use for coordination and communication. This paper studies the strengths and weaknesses of these two mechanisms by comparing equivalent, well-written message-passing and shared-memory p ...
Loosely coupled multiprocessor systems communicate by message passing. Traditional implementations of message passing architectures are based on communication controllers accessing local memory through DMA channels. The authors describe a completely new co ...
The author discusses: (1) cost of information, (2) quality of power supply and the value attributed to it depending on the use of energy, (3) opinion of operators of electric networks upon the rate of computer in their industry ...
A simple method is proposed for the estn. of the current bypass from exptl. current-potential (i-U) curves measured for a bipolar reactor and with a one-element cell of similar geometry. The model is valid only in the region where a linear i-U relation is ...
The authors define a causal distributed breakpoint, which is initiated by a sequential breakpoint in one process of a distributed computation and restores each process in the computation to its earliest state that reflects all events that happened before t ...
We believe the paucity of massively parallel, shared-memory machines follows from the lack of a shared-memory programming performance model that can inform programmers of the cost of operations (so they can avoid expensive ones) and can tell hardware desig ...
The photodissocn. I2M + hn -> I2 + M was studied for M = C2H6 and M = (C2H5)2O with excitation above the dissocn. limit of I2B state. Vibrational population distributions of the I2(B) product mols. are reported. The results are compared to previous studies ...
