Bridging gaps between several forms of granular computing

Bridging the Gaps between Many-task Computing and Supercomputers

Many Task Computing, an emerging programming paradigm on supercomputers, embraces many applications in such domains as biology, economics, and statistics, as well as data intensive computations and uncertainty quantification. Its high inter-task parallelism and intense data processing features place new challenges on the existing hardware-software stack on supercomputers. Those new challenges i...

Bridging Paradigm Gaps Between Biology and Engineering

Computing and Communications are well understood topics in engineering. However, we are very much at the beginning of the road to understanding those mechanisms in biological systems. I'll argue that progress in Biology will require better understanding of biologically inspired paradigms for computing and communications. In particular, I'll discuss some initial results related to asynchronous c...

Bridging Coordination Gaps between Devices, Services, and Humans in Ubiquitous Computing

A fundamental issue of ubiquitous computing concerns the coordination gaps separating devices, services, and humans. Numerous heterogeneous devices, various information services, and users have different intentions and are physically located in respective environments. How can we coordinate the services and devices to assist a particular user in receiving a particular service and thereby maximi...

Bridging the gaps.

Through Bridging the Gaps, an internship program that links health-related service with interdisciplinary training, Penn Dental Medicine students reach out to Philadelphia's neediest neighborhoods--and receive huge rewards in return.
