The Use Of Molecular Markers In Genetic Variability Analysis Of A Collection Of Dactylis Glomerata L., R. Costa, G. Pereira, C. Vicente, M. M. Tavares De Sousa

IGC Proceedings (1977-2023)

Dactylis glomerata L. is one of the three most used perennial grasses in Europe (jointly with Lolium perenne and Festuca arundinacea). The main qualities of Dactylis glomerata are high productivity in pure cultures, high level of proteins and tolerance to drought, cold and shade (Mousset & Chosson, 1986). In the last ten years, techniques that allow direct discrimination at the DNA level have encouraged the study of the genetic variability within cultivated populations as well as identification of the diversity available in germplasm banks. DNA polymorphisms have been shown to be efficient in the identification of genetic variability in …

Single Parameter Driven Tunable Resource Allocation For Machine Learning Tasks, Peter Danenberg Apr 2023

Single Parameter Driven Tunable Resource Allocation For Machine Learning Tasks, Peter Danenberg

Defensive Publications Series

Machine learning tasks, such as natural language processing evaluations, are assigned to server resources by dividing the tasks into a number of queues. In such an environment, different tasks may have different priorities, e.g., production tasks may be higher priority than research tasks. Task scheduling mechanisms such as weighted round-robin or batch scheduling are approximate, non-deterministic, and cannot be tuned based on the real time availability of resources. This disclosure describes the use of a single resource optimization parameter, determined based on real time resource availability to establish quantiles based on the exponential distribution for the single parameter. Task queues …
