Modern Computational Applications of Dynamic Programming

Computational dynamic programming, while of some use for situations typically encountered in industrial and systems engineering, has proved to be of much greater significance in many areas of computer science. We review some of these applications here.

Reducing Computational and Memory Cost of Substructuring Technique in Finite Element Models

Substructuring in the finite element method is a technique that reduces computational cost and memory usage for analysis of complex structures. The efficiency of this technique depends on the number of substructures in different problems. Some subdivisions increase computational cost, but require little memory usage and vice versa. In the present study, the cost functions of computations and me...

Getting to Know Wolfram|Alpha Computational Knowledge Engine and Its Applications in Biomedical Sciences

  Wolfram|Alpha Computational Knowledge Engine software, despite all internet search engines, tries to provide the the best answer for a question or compute an equation in the most correct way based on the current knowledge. Therefore, given the unique characteristic of Wolfram|Alpha and its vast applications, the aim of the present article is to familiarize the biomedical scientists with...

Parleda: a Library for Parallel Processing in Computational Geometry Applications

ParLeda is a software library that provides the basic primitives needed for parallel implementation of computational geometry applications. It can also be used in implementing a parallel application that uses geometric data structures. The parallel model that we use is based on a new heterogeneous parallel model named HBSP, which is based on BSP and is introduced here. ParLeda uses two main lib...
