Multi-duplication fault tolerant scheduling algorithm based on genetic algorithm in heterogeneous systems by Zhong-zheng HE, Chao-guang MEN, Yong-jun CHEN, Xiang LI

“…The fault-tolerant task scheduling mechanisms based on multi-duplication didn’t consider the scheduling makespan,the dependencies between tasks,the failures of the links and the longer scheduling makespan caused by the strict scheduling method in the heterogeneous distributed system.So the reliability calculation method that can involve the processor failures and the link failures was proposed firstly.Then the 0-1 integer linear program was proposed for the general scheduling problem.At last,the RAMD_TGS(reliability-aware multi-duplication task general scheduling) algorithm was proposed to solve the 0-1 integer linear program.The algorithm searched the mapped processor and the start execution time on the mapped processor for the task duplication by the evolution of the genetic algorithm.The experiments show that the RAMD_TGS algorithm can meet the reliability requirements and outperforms the existing scheduling algorithms based on the strict scheduling method in terms of scheduling makespan.The resource usages of the algorithm are also acceptable.…”

Challenges for Monte Carlo generators by Reuter Jürgen

“…This contribution lists challenges of Monte Carlo event generators for future lepton, especially linear colliders. A lot of the recent development benefits from the achievements at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), but several aspects are unique for lepton colliders like beam simulation, polarization, electroweak higher order corrections and resummed QED corrections. …”

Calculation Method of Driving Force of the Plate Quantitative Conveyor Chain Drive System by Xi Qiming, Shang Shibo, Liu Jingxiong, Yuan Hua

“…For improving the stability and security when the plate quantitative conveyor start-up and the accelerating operation,the calculation problem of driving force of chain drive system is studied.The maximum static tension of the chain drive system on stable operating conditions is calculated by point by point calculation method.The multi-axis electric drive system conversion method is proposed and the acceleration load is calculated by converted the inertial resistance of linear moving parts and rotating parts to drive shaft.The maximum driving force is sum of maximum static tension and the acceleration load.The results show that,the acceleration load account for the driving force about 35%,the drive power and breaking force calculation is necessary to consider the impact of the acceleration load in addition to the maximum static tension.…”

Novel NFA engine construction method of regular expressions by Mao-hua JING, Yi-xian YANG, Tao WANG, Yang XIN

“…A novel method for constructing smaller non-deterministic finite automata (NFA) engine from given regular expressions named PFA was proposed.There are three main algorithms in PFA,the pretreatment algorithm,the coding parser tree algorithm and the NFA construction algorithm based on the coded binary tree.The smaller NFA named NFA_p with only one start state and one final state can be obtained by using PFA construction method.NFA_phave linear size in terms of the size of given regular expressions.It is the smallest NFA comparing with current methods like Thompson NFA,follow automata,position automata and partial derivatives automata.The size of NFA_pis one third of Thompson’s and it is smaller than the size of follow automata whose size has nearly closed to optimal.…”

Preconditioning Filter Bank Decomposition Using Structured Normalized Tight Frames by Martin Ehler

“…Unitary filter banks providing perfect reconstruction are induced by tight generalized frames, which enable signal decomposition using a set of linear operators. If, in addition, frame elements have equal norm, then the signal energy is spread through the various filter bank channels in some uniform fashion, which is often more suitable for further signal processing. …”
