Public Transportation For The Elderly: A Neighborhood-Area Fixed-Route Alternative, Richard James Burke

Dissertations and Theses

As the elderly population of the United States grows in coming decades, providing personal mobility will be increasingly challenging. The dispersed suburban residential pattern of most metropolitan areas ensures that the personal automobile will continue to be the dominant mode of transportation. Those who voluntarily or involuntarily stop driving will encounter serious constraints in meeting their transportation needs.

Conventional public transit in most cities is tailored to the needs of urban commuters, and is, at best, barely adequate for elderly riders. Supplemental demand-response or subscription "special-needs" services are often inconvenient, sometimes unreliable, and inefficient. Eligibility criteria restrict many non-disabled elderly …

Pcrc-Based Hpf Compilation, Guansong Zhang, Bryan Carpenter, Geoffrey C. Fox, Xiaoming Li

Northeast Parallel Architecture Center

This paper describes an ongoing effort supported by ARPA PCRC (Parallel Compiler Runtime Consortium) project. In particular, we discuss the design and implementation of an HPF compilation system based on PCRC runtime. The approaches to issues such as directive analysis and communication detection are discussed in detail. The discussion includes fragments of code generated by the compiler.

A Prototype Fortran-To-Java Converter, Geoffrey C. Fox, Xiaoming Li, Zheng Qiang, Wu Zhigang

Northeast Parallel Architecture Center

This is a report on a prototype of a FORTRAN 77 to Java converter, f2j. Translation issues are identified, approaches are presented, a URL is provided for interested readers to download the package, and some unsolved problems are brought up. F2j allows value added to some of the investment onFORTRAN code, in particular, those well established FORTRAN libraries for scientific and engineering computation.

A Comparison Of Optimization Heuristics For The Data Mapping Problem, Nikos Chrisochoides, Nashat Mansour, Geoffrey C. Fox

Northeast Parallel Architecture Center

In this paper we compare the performance of six heuristics with suboptimal solutions for the data distribution of two dimensional meshes that are used for the numerical solution of Partial Differential Equations (PDEs) on multicomputers. The data mapping heuristics are evaluated with respect to seven criteria covering load balancing, interprocessor communication, flexibility and ease of use for a class of single-phase iterative PDE solvers. Our evaluation suggests that the simple and fast block distribution heuristic can be as effective as the other five complex and computational expensive algorithms.

Evaluation Of High Performance Fortran Through Application Kernels, Hon W. Yau, Geoffrey C. Fox, Ken Hawick

Northeast Parallel Architecture Center

Since the definition of the High Performance Fortran (HPF) standard, we have been maintaining a suite of application kernel codes with the aim of using them to evaluate the available compilers. This paper presents the results and conclusions from this study, for sixteen codes, on compilers from IBM, DEC, and the Portland Group Inc. (PGI), and on three machines: a DEC Alphafarm, an IBM SP-2, and a Cray T3D. From this, we hope to show the prospective HPF user that scalable performance is possible with modest effort, yet also where the current weaknesses lay.

Tango - A Collaborative Environment For The World-Wide Web, Lukasz Michal Beca, Gang Cheng, Geoffrey C. Fox, Tomasz Jurga, Konrad Olszewski, Marek Podgorny, Piotr Sokolowski, Tomasz Stachowiak, Krzysztof Walczak

Northeast Parallel Architecture Center

Geographical and logical growth of the World-Wide Web is accompanied by a fast technological development. Web can be successfully used as a platform for implementation of diverse applications. Distributed and collaborative systems are among the most challenging Web applications. TANGO is an integration platform which enables implementation of Web-based collaborative environments. The system provides means for fast integration of Web- and non-Web-applications into one multi-user collaborative systems. In this paper we describe the functional model, requirements, system design and certain implementation issues of the TANGO system.

The Legal Characterization Of God In The Pentateuch, James W. Watts

Religion - All Scholarship

The Pentateuch develops God's character in stories of divine creation and destruction, promise and fulfillment, battle and redemption. The laws of Exodus, Leviticus, and Numbers supplement such direct characterization by the impressions provided by YHWH's speech. Speeches always indirectly characterize their speaker by providing the basis for inferring the kind of person who talks this way. So the law codes voiced directly by God provide a powerful impression of the divine character.
