Software Distributed Shared Memory (SDSM) systems provide the shared memory abstraction on top of a message passing hardware, simplifying application programming in these architectures. However, some memory references exhibit long latencies due to remotely cached data. In order to hide this latency, many techniques that propagate data speculatively were developed. This requires that the data ac...

Freshwater reservoirs are widely recognized as methane (CH4) emission hotspots. Existing research has shown that temperature and hydrological conditions significantly affect wetland CH4 cycling processes. However, the feedback of cycle to climate warming remains unclear for deep where seasonal water thermal stratification exists. This study combined a reservoir model Statistical DownScaling Mod...

Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) is the keystone instrument for NASA’s EOS Terra and Aqua missions, designed to extend and improve heritage sensor measurements and data records of the land, oceans and atmosphere. The reflective solar bands (RSB) of MODIS covering wavelengths from 0.41 μm to 2.2 μm, are calibrated on-orbit using a solar diffuser (SD), with its on-orbit bi-di...

The introduction of automated parcel locker (APL) systems is one possible approach to improve urban logistics (UL) activities. Based on the city Dortmund as case study, we propose a simulation-optimization integrating system dynamics simulation model (SDSM) with multi-period capacitated facility location problem (CFLP). We this integrated decision support tool for future APL implementations las...

This paper presents a new parallel programming environment called ParADE to enable easy, portable, and high-performance computing for SMP clusters. Different from the prior studies, ParADE separates the programming model from the execution model: it enables shared-address-space programming while it realizes hybrid execution of message-passing and shared-address-space. To overcome the poor perfo...
