Abstract The general scheme of two-level parallelization (TLP) for direct simulation Monte Carlo of unsteady gas ows on shared memory multiprocessor computers has been described. The high e cient algorithm of parallel independent runs is used on the rst level. The data parallelization is employed for the second one. Two versions of TLP algorithm are elaborated with static and dynamic load balan...

In recent studies the truncated Levy process (TLP) has been shown to be very promising for the modeling of financial dynamics. In contrast to the Levy process, the TLP has finite moments and can account for both the previously observed excess kurtosis at short timescales, along with the slow convergence to Gaussian at longer timescales. In this paper I further test the truncated Levy paradigm u...

This note develops asymptotic formulae for single-commodity network flow problems with random inputs. The transportation linear programming problem (TLP) where N points lie in a region of R is one example. It is found that the average distance traveled by an item in the TLP increases with N; i.e., the unit cost is unbounded when N and the length of the region are increased in a fixed ratio. Fur...

Some of Wittgenstein’s early remarks on the connection between logic and the world leave a highly anticonventionalist impression. For example, in the Tractatus, he says that the world is “in logical space” (TLP 1.13) and that logic “pervades the world” (TLP 5.61). At a first glance, this seems to imply that the rules of logic are determined by the way the world is. And this, in turn, seems to b...

As technology feature size is reduced, ESD becomes the dominant failure mode due to lower gate oxide breakdown voltage. In this paper, the effectiveness of new gate and substrate triggering techniques has been investigated to lower the trigger voltage of the LVTSCR and MOSFET based ESD protection circuits using 2D simulations and HBM/TLP measurements. The simulation results show that the using ...

Faced with the problem of a need for more student participation and motivation in teaching–learning process (TLP) due to persistence traditional methods, peer instruction (PI) has emerged as an interactive teaching method. It is based on dynamic questions answers promote reflection discussion. Thus, this article shows applicability PI, considering learning engineering approach innovating TLP. F...

Canola (Brassica napus L.) is an important oilseed crop. A serious problem in cultivation of this crop andyield loss, are due to fungal disease stem rot caused by Sclerotinia sclerotiorum. The pathogenesis-related(PR) proteins have the potential for enhancing resistance against fungal pathogen. Thaumatin-like proteins(TLPs) have been shown to have antifungal activity on variou...
