The advent of the quantum computer makes current public-key infrastructure insecure. Cryptography community is addressing this problem by designing, efficiently implementing, and evaluating novel public-key algorithms capable of withstanding quantum comput ...
In crowding, perception of a target deteriorates in the presence of nearby flankers. In the traditional feedforward framework of vision, only elements within Bouma’s window interfere with the target and adding more elements always leads to stronger crowdin ...
Metal oxides have broad multifunctionality and important applications to energy, sensing, and information display. Printed electronics have recently adopted metal oxides to push the limits of performance and stability for flexible thin film systems. Howeve ...
Our work addresses the problem of placement of threads, or virtual cores, onto physical cores in a multicore NUMA system. Different placements result in varying degrees of contention for shared resources, so choosing the right placement can have a large ef ...
Nowadays, the ubiquity of smart appliances in our everyday lives is increasingly strengthening the links between humans and machines. Beyond making our lives easier and more convenient, smart devices are now playing an important role in personalized health ...
In order to get a better understanding of the interaction of plasma microinstabilities and associated turbulence with specific modes, an antenna is implemented in the global gyrokinetic Particle-In-Cell (PIC) code ORB5.
It consists in applying an external ...
One of the pivotal challenges of aging is to maintain independence in the activities of daily life. In order to adapt to changes in the environment, it is crucial to continuously process and accurately combine simultaneous input from different sensory syst ...
Nanoplasmonic structures can tightly confine light onto a material's surface to probe biomolecular interactions not easily accessed by other sensing techniques. New and exciting developments in nanofabrication processes, nano-optical trapping, graphene dev ...
When conducting building performance simulation (BPS) at the early design stage, potential impact on design decisions is the greatest. However, the reliability of evaluations resulting from early design stage BPS models may suffer given that building attri ...
As hardware evolves, so do the needs of applications. To increase the performance of an application,
there exist two well-known approaches. These are scaling up an application, using a larger multi-core
platform, or scaling out, by distributing work to mul ...
