Multi-core architectures comprising several GPUs have become mainstream in the eld of High-Performance Computing. However, obtaining the maximum performance of such heterogeneous machines is challenging as it requires to carefully o oad computations and manage data movements between the di erent processing units. The most promising and successful approaches so far rely on task-based runtimes th...

OVERVIEW. Open innovation (OI) has become a mainstream organizational process. Firms are establishing OI groups, allocating budgets, and measuring results. In this article, we identify twelve “good practices” associated with high quality open innovation efforts. In our experience, these practices are key inputs to the fi rm’s OI system, leading to high quality results when effectively executed....

Agricultural intensification has led to a widespread decline in farmland biodiversity measured across many different taxa. The changes in agricultural practices affect many different aspects of the farmland habitat, but agricultural industry, policy and much previous research has tended to be concerned with specific sectors or practices (e.g. pesticide use or cereal husbandry). Here, we review ...
