Data Forwarding Through In-Memory Precomputation Threads, Wessam Hassanein, José Fortes, Rudolf Eigenmann Jan 2003

Data Forwarding Through In-Memory Precomputation Threads, Wessam Hassanein, José Fortes, Rudolf Eigenmann

Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering Technical Reports

In modern architectures, memory access latency is an increasingly performance-limiting factor. To reduce this latency, we propose concepts and implementation of a new technique that uses an in-memory processor to precompute future, critical load addresses and forward the computed values to the main processor. The acronym for this technique is IMPT for In-Memory Precomputation-based forwarding Threads. IMPT combines the advantages of precomputationbased techniques with the low memory access latency of processing-in-memory. To evaluate IMPT, we use a cycle-accurate simulation of an aggressive out-of-order processor with accurate simulation of bus and memory contention. The results show a performance gain of up …

Harper & Brothers’ Family And School District Libraries, 1830-1846., Robert S. Freeman Jan 2003

Harper & Brothers’ Family And School District Libraries, 1830-1846., Robert S. Freeman

Libraries Faculty and Staff Scholarship and Research

In the 1830s, at the dawn of mass-market publishing, J. & J. Harper of New York began publishing several libraries, including Harper’s Family Library and Harper’s School District Library. A “library” in this sense is a series or set of uniformly bound and uniformly priced books issued by the same publisher. A leading publisher and a major force in the broad religious and social reform movements of the period, the Harper brothers helped to shape education in American homes and schools. As Methodists they were advocates of reading for moral improvement. As innovative publishers, they made full use of the …

Classification Of Railroad Crossings In Indiana For Roughness, Thomas A. Williams Jan 2003

Classification Of Railroad Crossings In Indiana For Roughness, Thomas A. Williams

JTRP Technical Reports

The objective of this research was to determine if roughness data on railroad crossings could be extracted from INDOT’s road network database in order to determine the need and priority of repair projects. This “railroad roughness” was to be correlated to the general public’s perception of riding comfort by using the panel rating method. From this information a Railroad Crossing Index (RCI) would be developed so that the INDOT could search the database to generate a list of crossings that require repair and prioritize them. To calculate RCI four methods were proposed: 1. The first proposed method for generating RCI …

Investigation Of Novel Acoustic Barrier Concepts Phase I: Concept Development And Preliminary Evaluation, Luc Mongeau, J. Stuart Bolton, Sanghoon Suh Jan 2003

Investigation Of Novel Acoustic Barrier Concepts Phase I: Concept Development And Preliminary Evaluation, Luc Mongeau, J. Stuart Bolton, Sanghoon Suh

JTRP Technical Reports

In a previous research project [SPR 2418; "Study of the performance of acoustic barriers for Indiana toll roads,"] the influence of environmental factors and of advanced sound barrier concepts was investigated. The presence of temperature gradients over pavements was found to have a strong influence on sound propagation. Refraction of sound waves emitted by tire-road interactions in the vicinity of the ground also affects sound barrier performance. Modified ray tracing model suggested that prevailing winds have an influence on barrier performance at large distances. Randomized edge configurations were found not to improve barrier performance for traffic noise. Random edges simply …

Design And Simulation Of Novel Arrayed Waveguide Grating By Using The Method Of Irregularly Sampled Zero-Crossings , Sai Hu Dec 2002

Design And Simulation Of Novel Arrayed Waveguide Grating By Using The Method Of Irregularly Sampled Zero-Crossings , Sai Hu

Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering Technical Reports

Arrayed waveguide grating (AWG) is playing an increasingly important role in dense wavelength division multiplexing (DWDM) system. The regular AWG device consists of an arrayed waveguide region where all the individual waveguides are equally spaced on the Rowland circle and the adjacent ones have constant length difference. The regularity of their positions and lengths leads to the phenomenon that a portion of the Rowland circle is occupied by the adjacent (undesired) order focused beams of the operation wavelength channels. The repetitions of the same wavelengths at different locations affect the device potential capacity. The method of irregularly sampled zero-crossings is …

Reading Liksom's Short Story "We Got Married" In Post-Communist Bulgaria, Kornelia Slavova Dec 2002

Reading Liksom's Short Story "We Got Married" In Post-Communist Bulgaria, Kornelia Slavova

CLCWeb: Comparative Literature and Culture

Kornelia Slavova, in her paper "Reading Liksom's Short Story 'We Got Married' in Post-communist Bulgaria," discusses the intricate interrelations of texts and social practices in postcommunist Bulgaria by analysing Rosa Liksom's short story read by sixty readers. Further, Slavova proposes the study of the uses of stereotypes in fiction and their discursive hardening in extratextual practices at times of radical political and cultural change. With this notion, she focuses on two major stereotypical patterns concerning gender and the supranational opposition East/West. Slavova argues that the latter function as palimpsest structures on which earlier bipolar representations from the communist Cold-War era …

Reading Liksom's Short Story "We Got Married" In Post-Communist Estonia, Malle Järve

CLCWeb: Comparative Literature and Culture

In her paper, "Reading Liksom's Short Story 'We Got Married' in Post-communist Estonia," Malle Järve discusses the reception of Rosa Liksom's text in post-communist Estonia. After gaining independence, Estonians became exposed to varieties of literature including avant-garde texts which did not fit easily with the expectations and rules of interpretation developed during Soviet rule. Based on data collected in 1993 and 1998, Järve focuses on the cultural repertoire (discourses, stereotypes, values, literary expectations, etc.) used by readers while constructing meaning to the text, perceived predominantly as foreign/Other. Järve's objective is an attempt to explain: 1) who/what the Other in the …

Exploiting The Synergy Between Peer-To-Peer And Mobile Ad Hoc Networks, Y. Charlie Hu, Saumitra M. Das, Himabindu Pucha Nov 2002

Exploiting The Synergy Between Peer-To-Peer And Mobile Ad Hoc Networks, Y. Charlie Hu, Saumitra M. Das, Himabindu Pucha

Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering Technical Reports

We argue that there exists a synergy between peer-to-peer (p2p) overlay networks for the Internet and mobile ad hoc networks (MANET) connecting mobile nodes communicating with each other via multi-hop wireless links { both share the key characteristics of self- organization and decentralization, and both need to solve the same fundamental problem, that is, how to provide connectivity in a completely decentralized environment. We propose Dynamic P2P Source Routing (DPSR), a new routing protocol for MANETs that exploits the synergy between P2P and MANET for increased scalability. By integrating DSR and a topology-aware structured P2P overlay routing protocol, DPSR limits …
