Nonlocal games are extensions of Bell inequalities, aimed at demonstrating quantum advantage. These well suited for noisy computers because they only require the preparation a shallow circuit, followed by measurement non-commuting observable. Here, minimal implementation nonlocal game proposed in Science 362, 308 (2018) is considered. This tested preparing 6-qubit cluster state using on cloud I...

We have constructed a parallel cluster consisting of Apple Macintosh G4 computers running both Classic Mac OS as well as the Unix-based Mac OS X, and have achieved very good performance on numerically intensive, parallel plasma particle-in-cell simulations. Unlike other Unix-based clusters, no special expertise in operating systems is required to build and run the cluster. This enables us to mo...

This project aims to construct a non-dedicated, high performance PC cluster using an advanced network processor for solving CPUand memory-intensive applications. Early cluster projects either use commonplace network technologies such as Ethernet or use specialized, more advanced network technologies such as Myrinet to connect commodity computers to form a single parallel processing system. Rega...

The Network Of Workstations (NOWs) is the trend for distributed computing, and the costeffectiveness of networking system is one of the key issues for NOWs. The IEEE 1394 bus can be a cost-effective solution for linking a network of computers, in this paper, we tested the performance of IEEE 1394 on the Linux system, and discussed how to improve the IEEE 1394 performance towards cluster computi...

Plasma particle-in-cell (PIC) codes model the interaction of charged particles with the surrounding fields, and they have been implemented on many advanced parallel computers. Recently, many PC clusters which consist of inexpensive PCs have been developed to do parallel computing, and we also build such a PC cluster. In this paper, we present the implementation of a parallel plasma PIC code on ...

BACKGROUND Virtual screening of small molecules using molecular docking has become an important tool in drug discovery. However, large scale virtual screening is time demanding and usually requires dedicated computer clusters. There are a number of software tools that perform virtual screening using AutoDock4 but they require access to dedicated Linux computer clusters. Also no software is avai...

background & aim : nurses are exposed to the changing demands in technology as they execute their patient-related duties in the workplace. integration of information technology (it) in healthcare systems improves the quality of care provided. nursing and midwifery students with prior exposure to computers tend to have a positive influence of it. this study was carried out to determine the attit...
