Mitigating Multi-Scale Variability In Datacenters: In-Situ Physical Sensing, Proactive Thermal-Cooling Co-Management, And Symbiotic Virtualization, Gopi K. Tummala Sep 2026

Mitigating Multi-Scale Variability In Datacenters: In-Situ Physical Sensing, Proactive Thermal-Cooling Co-Management, And Symbiotic Virtualization, Gopi K. Tummala

Defensive Publications Series

As semiconductor manufacturing scales past the 32 nm threshold toward atomic-scale devices, physical variability has emerged as a paramount challenge threatening computing efficiency, system predictability, and hardware longevity in warehouse-scale datacenters. Nanoscale device scaling introduces severe process variations—such as Random Dopant Fluctuations (RDF) and Line Edge Roughness (LER)—which manifest at the architectural level as a 30% dispersion in core operating frequencies and up to a 10× disparity in sub-threshold leakage power. Compounding these static manufacturing anomalies, datacenters encounter profound dynamic environmental variability, driven by localized heat fluxes exceeding 100W/cm2 , ambient temperature fluctuations (35◦C to 45◦C in containerized and economizer-cooled …


Galois-Q: High-Throughput Finite-Field Microarchitectures For Non-Binary Qudit Qec, Qldpc Syndrome Decoding, And Fault-Tolerant Cryptanalysis, Gopi K. Tummala, Ashwin Alapati, Ram Awatar Sep 2026

Galois-Q: High-Throughput Finite-Field Microarchitectures For Non-Binary Qudit Qec, Qldpc Syndrome Decoding, And Fault-Tolerant Cryptanalysis, Gopi K. Tummala, Ashwin Alapati, Ram Awatar

Defensive Publications Series

Fault-tolerant quantum computing (FTQC) is undergoing a paradigm shift from conventional 2-level qubits toward higher-dimensional d-level qudits (d = q = p m) and asymptotically efficient quantum Low-Density ParityCheck (qLDPC) codes. Non-binary qudits dramatically increase physical quantum information density and reduce cross-talk, while qLDPC codes achieve macroscopic code rates and distance with orders-of-magnitude fewer physical qubits than surface codes. Concurrently, faulttolerant quantum cryptanalysis (such as Shor’s algorithm for discrete logarithms over binary elliptic curves) demands massive reversible modular arithmetic over Galois fields F2m. However, both quantum error correction (QEC) decoding and reversible arithmetic face a severe classical computational bottleneck: processing …


Q-Razor: A Variation-Tolerant, Speculative Classical Control Microarchitecture For Cryogenic Fault-Tolerant Quantum Error Correction, Gopi K. Tummala Sep 2026

Q-Razor: A Variation-Tolerant, Speculative Classical Control Microarchitecture For Cryogenic Fault-Tolerant Quantum Error Correction, Gopi K. Tummala

Defensive Publications Series

Fault-tolerant quantum computing (FTQC) requires classical control processors to execute quantum error correction (QEC) syndrome decoding, Pauli frame updates, and pulse orchestration within microsecond-scale physical qubit coherence windows. To resolve the catastrophic thermal and wiring bottlenecks of routing tens of thousands of microwave coaxial lines from room temperature to a dilution refrigerator, modern architectures place classical control and decoding processors at the 4 Kelvin cryogenic stage. However, 4 K cryogenic CMOS introduces an acute architectural tension: severe carrier freeze-out, amplified random discrete dopant fluctuations (RDF), and localized dynamic thermal hot spots induce up to 3× timing delay variability, while the …


Chesscore: A Reconfigurable Domain-Specific Architecture For Accelerating Adversarial Game-Tree Search And Heuristic Learning, Gopi K. Tummala Sep 2026

Chesscore: A Reconfigurable Domain-Specific Architecture For Accelerating Adversarial Game-Tree Search And Heuristic Learning, Gopi K. Tummala

Defensive Publications Series

Adversarial game-tree search—exemplified by classical zerosum games of perfect information such as Tic-Tac-Toe and Chess—represents a foundational benchmark for artificial intelligence and combinatorial optimization. However, executing recursive minimax algorithms with α-β pruning on generalpurpose von Neumann microprocessors suffers from crippling architectural bottlenecks: branch misprediction rates exceeding 30% during search cutoffs, serialized legal move generation, deep recursion stack thrashing, and high-latency memory stalls during transposition table lookups. This paper presents ChessCore, a reconfigurable domainspecific hardware architecture designed for high-throughput adversarial tree search and heuristic learning. Grounded in an architectural lineage originally prototyped on a resourceconstrained Xilinx Spartan-II FPGA (XC2S50 TQ144) using …


Ai-Based Displacement Forecasting For Real-Time Landslide Risk Assessment In The Danube Region, Amina Čehaja, Asja Muharemović, Jasmin Kevrić, Dejan Jokić, Mirza Ponjavić Sep 2026

Ai-Based Displacement Forecasting For Real-Time Landslide Risk Assessment In The Danube Region, Amina Čehaja, Asja Muharemović, Jasmin Kevrić, Dejan Jokić, Mirza Ponjavić

Communications of the IIMA

This paper presents a dual-layered AI framework for real-time landslide risk assessment developed under the GeoNetSee project within the Interreg Danube Region Programme. The first layer employs a fuzzy logic model, inspired by the Slovenian MASPREM system, which integrates Landslide Susceptibility Maps (LSS) with high-resolution precipitation forecasts from the Open-Meteo API to generate a Predicted Landslide Hazard (PLSH) score on a 0–5 scale, updated every 6–12 hours. The second layer focuses on real-time ground displacement detection by fusing low-cost dual-frequency GNSS receivers with MEMS accelerometers and applying machine learning regression algorithms, including Support Vector Regression (SVR), Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM), …

UNL ORCA Interview Series

Dr. Sang Lee was awarded the ORCA in 1980. Sang was born in 1939 in South Korea and grew up in Seoul. He earned his bachelor’s in 1961 at Seoul National University. Next, he traveled over 7000 miles to the US to earn a master’s from Miami University in Oxford, Ohio, and then a somewhat shorter move to the University of Georgia in Athens, where he earned a doctorate in Business Administration and Management. From 1968 to 1976, he rose through the ranks at Virginia Polytechnic Institute in Blacksburg while making a splash for his “goal programming” ideas. In 1976, …

Division of Internal Medicine Faculty Papers & Presentations

Purpose of Review Medetomidine is a veterinary α2-adrenergic agonist that has been an adulterant of illicitly manufactured opioids since 2022. We review its pharmacology, detection, intoxication, withdrawal, and management, and assess why severe withdrawal has emerged in some regions but not others. Recent Findings Medetomidine has spread through North American drug markets yet evades most toxicology testing. Roughly two hundred times more potent than xylazine, with greater α2 selectivity and imidazoline-1 activity, it causes intoxication resembling other α2 agonists: sedation and bradycardia. The dominant clinical problem is withdrawal: autonomic dysregulation, intractable vomiting, and encephalopathy frequently requiring intensive care. Treatment requires …

A Hybrid Rule-Based And Large Language Model Framework For Extracting Acronym–Definition Pairs From Scientific Literature, Petro Skrypnyk Sep 2026

A Hybrid Rule-Based And Large Language Model Framework For Extracting Acronym–Definition Pairs From Scientific Literature, Petro Skrypnyk

Theses and Dissertations

Authors of scientific papers rely heavily on acronyms and often use them without defining them, making the literature harder to read and index. This thesis develops and evaluates a hybrid rule-based and large language model (LLM) framework that extracts acronym–definition pairs from scientific PDF documents. It extends an earlier Rowan University system that combined a regular-expression parser with a single LLM on 200 papers. That system showed that neither the parser nor the LLM alone is sufficient for accurate extraction of the pairs. The framework is a fully automated pipeline from PDF input to scored results. It compares four LLM …
