THE UNIVERSITY OF NEW SOUTH WALES SCHOOL OF MECHANICAL AND MANUFACTURING ENGINEERING and NATIONAL ICT AUSTRALIA Operating System for a Flow-Graph Machine
نویسنده
چکیده
The flow-graph machine currently being developed by Wave Semiconductor is a computer processor based on the dataflow model of computation, and has the potential to provide more energy-efficient, resource-efficient and scalable computing than sequential computer processors. In order to make the most of this potential, an operating system must be created for the machine. Such an operating system would need to be designed differently to traditional operating systems, and this area has not received much study in the past. This project is a first step towards the creation of such an operating system. It includes an exploration of the various ways such a machine might be used, an explanation of how an operating system would support this, identification of challenges in the implementation, and suggestions for further development of the machine, the operating system, and the software that will use it.

Creep Life Forecasting of Weldment
One of the yet unresolved engineering problems is forecasting the creep lives of weldment in a pragmatic way with sufficient accuracy. There are number of obstacles to circumvent including: complex material behavior, lack of accurate knowledge about the creep material behavior specially about the heat affected zones (HAZ),accurate and multi-axial creep damage models, etc. In general, creep life...

متن کاملEvaluating the Effectiveness of Integrated Benders Decomposition Algorithm and Epsilon Constraint Method for Multi-Objective Facility Location Problem under Demand Uncertainty
One of the most challenging issues in multi-objective problems is finding Pareto optimal points. This paper describes an algorithm based on Benders Decomposition Algorithm (BDA) which tries to find Pareto solutions. For this aim, a multi-objective facility location allocation model is proposed. In this case, an integrated BDA and epsilon constraint method are proposed and it is shown that how P...
