A Flexible In-Memory Computing Architecture for Heterogeneously Quantized CNNs

David Atienza Alonso, Giovanni Ansaloni, Alexandre Sébastien Julien Levisse, Marco Antonio Rios, Flavio Ponzina

Inferences using Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) are resource and energy intensive. Therefore, their execution on highly constrained edge devices demands the careful co-optimization of algorithms and hardware. Addressing this challenge, in this paper ...

Potential integration of Chinese and European emissions trading market: welfare distribution analysis

Marc Vielle, Sigit Pria Perdana

A new paper has found that the European Union (EU) and China would both see benefits if their respective ETSs were integrated. The analysis shows that China’s welfare would improve through the “net gain of selling the [carbon] allowance”. In comparison, th ...

Carbon Brief2021

In the context of both severe selection in farm animals and potential effects of climate change, it is crucial to implement a sustainable management of the breeding practice, supported by a judicious use of geographic information technologies. Based on thi ...

Greater Contribution From Agricultural Sources to Future Reactive Nitrogen Deposition in the United States

Athanasios Nenes, Shuai Shao

Many sensitive ecosystems in areas protected for biodiversity conservation in the United States suffer from exposure to excess reactive nitrogen (Nr) released by fossil fuel combustion and agricultural practices and deposited onto the land surface and wate ...

Stream Solutes and Particulates Export Regimes: A New Framework to Optimize Their Monitoring

Camille Roland Marie Minaudo

The quantification of solute and sediment export from drainage basins is challenging. A large proportion of annual or decadal loads of most constituents is exported during relatively short periods of time, a “hot moment,” which vary between constituents an ...

Potential Integration of Chinese and European Emissions Trading Market: Welfare Distribution Analysis

Marc Vielle, Sigit Pria Perdana, Ru Li

Central to the aims of the Paris Agreement, a multilateral coordinated action through integrated carbon markets has been a practical bottom up option for effective and efficient mitigation. This paper quantifies the welfare effects of potential integration ...

Selective hydrogenation of lignin-derived compounds under mild conditions

Paul Joseph Dyson, Gabor Laurenczy, Antoine Philippe Van Muyden, Lu Chen, Xinjiang Cui

A key challenge in the production of lignin-derived chemicals is to reduce the energy intensive processes used in their production. Here, we show that well-defined Rh nanoparticles dispersed in sub-micrometer size carbon hollow spheres, are able to hydroge ...
