Some field programmable gate arrays (FPGAs) can be partially dynamically reconfigurable with heterogeneous resources distributed on the chip. FPGA-based partially dynamically reconfigurable system (FPGA-PDRS) can be used to accelerate computing and ...

The problem of cargoes transportation scheduling in the transport network represented by an undirected multigraph is considered. Transportations between vertices are provided at predefined time intervals. The iterative algorithm to search for a ...

A new mathematical model of transportation along the transport network represented by an undirected multigraph is formulated. A new criterion for the optimality of cargo carriages schedule is proposed. The criterion in addition to the time ...

This paper establishes a relationship between optimal scheduling problems with the minimum schedule length and the problems of finding optimal (strict) colorings of mixed graph vertices, i.e., assigning a minimal set of ordered colors to the ...

While researchers have proposed many techniques to mitigate the contention on the shared cache and memory bandwidth, none of them has considered the memory bus contention due to split lock. Our study shows that the split lock may cause 9X longer ...

Although urban transit systems (UTS) often have fixed vehicle capacity and relatively constant departure headways, they may need to accommodate dramatically fluctuating passenger demands over space and time, resulting in either excessive passenger waiting ...

Quantum computers are known to be efficient for solving combinatorial problems like finding optimal schedules for processing transactions in parallel without blocking. We show how Grover’s search algorithm for quantum computers can be applied for ...

Quantum annealers are a special kind of quantum computers for solving optimization problems. In this paper, we investigate the benefits of quantum annealers in the field of transaction synchronization. In particular, we show how transactions using the 2-...

With the continuous expansion of cognitive field, people are facing increasingly complex evaluation objects, and comprehensive evaluation will be widely used. In this paper, by using the quantitative indexes such as “back to back” game, consecutive away ...

Industrial process control systems are time-critical systems where reliable communications between sensors and actuators need to be guaranteed within strict deadlines to maintain safe operation of all the components of the system. WirelessHART is the ...

We introduce Monomizo, a tangible daily and monthly calendar in a concrete-casted desktop object that allows users to print out their daily schedules. Monomizo was designed to integrate the benefits of digital and paper-based scheduling by providing ...

New battery-free backscatter tags that integrate with unmodified standard IoT devices can extend the latter's sensing capabilities in a scalable and cost effective way. Existing IoT nodes can provide the unmodulated carrier needed by the new nodes, ...

We consider the task of assigning teams of specialists who jointly perform certain types of jobs (consulting services, compliance assessment for products, goods or services according to given requirements etc.). The team performing this work is composed ...

We introduce Traffico, a tangible timetable representing dematerialized schedule and transportation information. It delivers a user's schedules in chronological order along with transportation information between schedules. Placed on the user's desk, ...

We introduce Quietto: an interactive timepiece made of molded concrete and milled wood. In harmony with a desk-top environment, it shows upcoming daily schedules and the time through the quiet, ambient motions of a clock hand and light through the ...

We introduce Quietto: an interactive timepiece made of molded concrete and milled wood. It shows upcoming daily schedules and the time through the quiet, ambient motions of a clock hand and light through the concrete touch interface. The results of an ...

Long-running stream applications usually share the same fundamental computational infrastructure. To improve the efficiency of data processing in stream processing systems, a data analysis operator could be partitioned into n parallel tasks. The ...

We propose an action support system for a business person to know schedule and related information timely in a watch-type wearable device. We have investigated desirable notification contents and timing from actual business people. The system notifies ...

This paper studies the disruption management problem of rapid transit rail networks. We consider an integrated model for the recovery of the timetable and the rolling stock schedules. We propose a new approach to deal with large-scale disruptions: we ...

With the proliferation of wireless sensor networks (WSN), the issues about how to schedule all the sensors in order to maximize the system's working time have been in the spotlight. Inspired by the promising performance of ant colony optimization (ACO) ...
