ACTION: Adaptive Cache Block Migration in Distributed Cache Architectures

Chip multiprocessors (CMP) with more cores have more traffic to the last-level cache (LLC). Without a corresponding increase in LLC bandwidth, such traffic cannot be sustained, resulting in performance degradation. Previous research focused on data placement techniques to improve access latency in Non-Uniform Cache Architectures (NUCA). Placing data closer to the referring core reduces traffic in cache interconnect. However, earlier data placement work did not account for the frequency with which specific memory references are accessed. The difficulty of tracking access frequency for all memory references is one of the main reasons why it was not considered in NUCA data placement. In this research, we present a hardware-assisted solution called ACTION (Adaptive Cache Block Migration) to track the access frequency of individual memory references and prioritize placement of frequently referred data closer to the affine core. ACTION mechanism implements cache block migration when there is a detectable change in access frequencies due to a shift in the program phase. ACTION counts access references in the LLC stream using a simple and approximate method and uses a straightforward placement and migration solution to keep the hardware overhead low. We evaluate ACTION on a 4-core CMP with a 5x5 mesh LLC network implementing a partitioned D-NUCA against workloads exhibiting distinct asymmetry in cache block access frequency. Our simulation results indicate that ACTION can improve CMP performance by up to 7.5% over state-of-the-art (SOTA) D-NUCA solutions.
Maximum Efficiency Analysis and Design of Self-resonance Coupling Coils for Wireless Power Transmission System

Self-resonance coupling is a new technology for wireless power transmission, which can transfer energy in middle distance. In this paper, the wireless transmission mechanism based on the coupling model of two spatial isolated coils was analyzed, and the relationship among efficiency frequency, distance and coil sizes was researched. Further more the maximum efficiency condition was obtained to optimize the design of self-resonance coupling system. Finally,a wireless power transmission prototype of resonant coupling was designed in this paper. And various coil groups were used to compare in this experiment. The result shows that the coils deliver the maximum energy when two hollow coils are in the state of resonance coupling, which quite verifies the theoretica research in this paper.

QAPSO-BP algorithm and its application in vibration fault diagnosis for a hydroelectric generating unit

Aiming at problems of vibration fault with many coupling factors and complex fault modes of a hydroelectric generating unit,a method of quantum adaptive particle swarm optimized BP neural network( QAPSO-BP)was proposed. In this algorithm,The characteristics of superposition state and probability expression in the quantum computing were adopted to increase the diversity of population. The position and velocity information of each particle was used to adjust inertia factor adaptively. To avoid falling into local optimum,mutation process was added in the approach.Afterwards,the BP neural network was trained with QAPSO to achieve the optimization of its parameters,then the vibration fault diagnosis model of the unit was established. The simulation showed that the diagnostic accuracy of the QAPSO-BP algorithm is higher than those of the particle swarm optimized BP network( PSO-BP) and the BP neural network,and it is suitable for fault modes recognition of hydroelectric generator units.
How does the food environment influence people engaged in weight management? A systematic review and thematic synthesis of the qualitative literature

People engaged in weight loss or weight loss maintenance (weight management) often regain weight long term. Unsupportive food environments are one of the myriad challenges people face when working towards a healthier weight. This systematic review explores how the food environment influences people engaged in weight management and the policy implications. Nine electronic databases (CINAHL, Medline, PsycINFO, Academic Search Complete, Embase, Ovid Emcare, PubMed, Open Grey, and BASE) were searched systematically in May 2020 to synthesize the qualitative evidence. Eligible studies were conducted with adults (18+) in high‐income countries, available in English and published 2010–2020 with a substantial qualitative element and reference to food environments. Data were analyzed using a thematic synthesis approach. Quality assessment using the Critical Appraisal Skills Programme was undertaken. We identified 26 studies of 679 individuals reporting on weight management experiences with reference to the food environment. Limitations of the included studies included a lack of detail regarding socioeconomic status and ethnicity in many studies. The analysis revealed that food environments undermine efforts at weight management, consistently making purchasing and consumption of healthier food more difficult, particularly for those on a low income. For weight management to be more successful, concurrent actions to reshape food environments are necessary.
Review on Gene regulation: DNA-protein and protein-protein interactions and their regulatory elements

The non-coding elements that control transcription are found in the chromatin structure of organisms. Recent findings identify the non-coding regulatory elements (e.g., enhancers, silencers, promoters) that control transcription and examine their respective protein interactions. The multiple topological environment limitations, including interactions of promoter-enhancer and specific enhancer-bound proteins with variable promoter compatibility, begin to shape a picture. These transcription factors and co-factors contribute to various expressions based on which enhancers and promoters are found inside sequences. A novel trait of transcription factors and co-factors establishes nuclear microenvironments or membranes compartments with phase-separated liquid characteristics. These settings are capable of enriching some proteins and tiny molecules at the expense of others. To better understand gene regulation
Avian diversity of Fars province (Southwestern Iran) with note on the zoogeographical composition

Rich avifauna of Fars province, SW Iran, is a stem from high diversity of habitat and climate beside its geographical position as a crossroad between Palearctic, Oriental, and Afrotropical realms. It shares the greatest number of bird species with the Palearctic region, however two other faunal realms, including Oriental and Afrotropical have a pronounced influence on its avifauna. It seems its bird fauna to be more in common with the Oriental elements than Afrotropical ones; the question addressed in this study. In addition, the province is located east of the Western Palearctic and close to the Eastern Palearctic border. I explored how much its bird elements have in common with the Eastern Palearctic. It is important because in some cases, western and eastern bird elements may come together with a narrow or wide hybrid zone. Based on my expeditions in recent years and pervious published literature, I present the comprehensive annotated checklist including 371 bird species in 197 genera, 68 families and 23 orders. At least 88 species are resident, 193 species are breeding, 33 species are rare and 21 species are vagrant. Based on the international conservation criteria, five species fall under the EN, nine under the VU, 16 under the NT of IUCN and 62 species fall under the appendices of CITES, including eight species in appendix I and 54 in appendix II. Results show that the Fars province shares the greatest number of bird species with the Palearctic region (364). The province lies within the West Palearctic faunal region and as expected, its bird fauna shares a greater number of species with the western Palaearctic than its eastern (346 versus 314). Our results also showed that the two other adjacent faunal regions including Oriental and Afrotropical have influence on its avifauna, and the province shares a greater number of species with the Oriental than to Afrotropical.
The Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic on the Transplant Pharmacist Workforce

Background: The COVID-19 pandemic has placed an unprecedented strain on the US healthcare system, greatly impacting transplant centers. Objective: The purpose of this survey was to evaluate the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the transplant pharmacist workforce. Methods: A survey was disseminated electronically to assess the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the transplant pharmacist workforce. Respondents were asked to give background regarding transplant center, patient, population, and departmental staffing. Results: There were 67 total respondents from 56 transplant centers. In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, 55% of centers reported stopping non-life saving transplants, and a majority (89%) stopped living donor transplants altogether. The banning of caregivers on-site during education, reduction of bedside education teaching, and cancelling of group teaching classes occurred at 46%, 40%, and 22% of centers, respectively. Consequently, 42% of pharmacists surveyed felt that their confidence in patient and caregiver’s understanding of medications had decreased since these changes have been implemented. Conclusions: Pharmacist perception of patient and caregiver understanding of transplant medications has decreased since before the COVID-19 pandemic. As health systems strategize resource allocation throughout the pandemic, the importance of patient education must be prioritized to sustain and improve transplant outcomes.

A Programming Paradigm for Reliable Applications in a Decentralized Setting

The use of applications has changed together with the underlying computing platform. The modern computer is no longer a big piece of office equipment that is booted to execute a single task producing a single output. Instead, we have many interconnected devices – smartphones, laptops, routers, Internet of Things gadgets, and even some venerable desktop computers we still use to get that heavy work done. Furthermore, ubiquitous connectivity with the Internet, and thus collaboration with other people and their set of devices has drastically changed how people expect applications to work. For such distributed, interactive, and collaborative applications, we currently lack a declarative fault-tolerant programming paradigm with easy-to-reason high-level guarantees. We want to empower developers from organizations of all sizes to be able to create reliable applications that solve their users needs. Thus, the central question in this thesis is: How to automate fault tolerance for such applications? To answer this question, we present a novel approach to automatic fault tolerance using a high-level programming paradigm. Our goal is to provide future developers with a paradigm that reduces the challenge posed by failures in interactive applications similar to how a garbage collector reduces the challenge of managing memory. To do so, our programming paradigm abstracts from the notion of changes in data, thus removing the need to handle failure cases differently and providing developers a single set of properties to always rely on.

Pendekatan Keadilan Gender Pada Penerapan Iddah Ditinjau Dari Studi Islam

This paper aims to discuss the concept of iddah which is considered to discriminate against women because it is considered to limit women's movement after divorce or death by their husbands. But in that case Islam actually has clearly regulated in the Qur'an and hadith. Therefore, the problem that wants to be researched and analyzed is how the application of iddah today in Islamis gender equitable and is still relevant if applied. From the research results, there is actually no more injustice of any kind against women, let alone using religious legitimacy to discredit women. Because basically Islam is earlier than the history of any religion which pays special attention to the dehumanization of humanity experienced by women and serves which function as Khalifah fi al-ard. And iddah is still very relevant if it is applied today because in fact, even though today there are many discoveries and modern sciences that undermine the aims of iddah and assume that there is discrimination against women, infact there are many lessons and goals that can be taken from the process of having iddah.

A scheduling model and Q-learning algorithm for yard trailers at container terminals

The problem of assignment and scheduling of yard trailers to quay cranes was discussed.A dynamic scheduling model for yard trailers was developed so as to minimize the waiting time of quay cranes.A Q-learning algorithm was also designed to develop decision-making policy for selecting the appropriate dispatching rules in different states.Also,a selection method was proposed whereby the Q-learning algorithm was used to choose the systematic state,action rule,learning step size,and reduction rate in yard trailer scheduling.Finally,simulation studies were performed to investigate the effect of the proposed approaches.Results show that,with an increasing number of yard trailers,the Q-learning algorithm performs better than other dispatching rules such as LW(longest waiting time),LT(longest travel),and SCO(single-crane oriented).
Editorial 17.5. strengthening our focus for a post-covid-19 environment: Learnings from a pandemic in higher education

The year 2020 will unlikely be one that any member of the higher education community will forget It has posed challenges and opportunities to rethink aspects of tertiary learning and teaching, and also confirmation of some of the better practices we have engaged in For some, the novel coronavirus pandemic has forced bad practice – such as simple and rapid digitalisation of existing curriculum – often bundled into the pedagogically-ambiguous ‘emergency remote teaching’ or ERT (Toquero, 2020) The intense pressure for academics to deliver curriculum online, typically to the exception of time for comprehensive academic development and upskilling The practice for an overnight transition to online learning, while deemed by many to have been essential at the time, has created a myriad of future decisions to be actioned across the sector These range from deploying future academic development workshops to transform the workforce for continued online learning to employment of educational technologists, learning designers, or similar to enable purposeful decisions of pedagogy within online learning environments Financial constraints have tempered the deployment of additional resources, with institutions suffering from financial modelling unexpected in late-2019 budget forecasting meetings A reduction in student enrolments from international markets offers complexity for higher education exporter nations like Australia (Marshman & Larkins, 2020) Nonetheless, there has been a resilience from the sector to ensure continuity of education under all circumstances The role of journals like the Journal of University Teaching and Learning Practice during the pandemic has been to support timely publication of evidence-based practices for responses to COVID-19 This has included a need to balance the acceptance of manuscripts with pre-COVID-19 data and implications, and those authors contributing to the exponentially expanding knowledge base for teaching and learning during COVID-19 For the former, we have encouraged authors during final acceptance to reflect on their work’s role in enabling a positive response to the pandemic For those in the latter, we have ensured that writers have considered the broader implications of their work beyond the pandemic These decisions support manuscripts publishing in JUTLP to contribute to the contemporary landscape, and also beyond the pandemic © 2020, University of Wollongong All rights reserved
The Relationship between Oral and Dental Health Self-care and Hemoglobin A1c in Adults with Diabetes

Statement of the Problem: Due to the mutual relationship between periodontal diseases and diabetes, it seems that adopting oral self-care in a way to prevent and control the progress of periodontal diseases, improves the oral health of diabetic patients as well as their general health. Purpose: The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between the oral self-care behaviors and the hemoglobin A1c (Hb A1c) levels in adults with diabetes. Materials and Method: In this cross-sectional study with convenience sampling, 120 adults between 18 to 50 years old, who had at least two healthy functional teeth, were selected from private endocrinology offices in Tehran in August 2019. The exclusion criteria were illiterate individuals and pregnant women. A standard questionnaire was used which included the information about demographic, diabetes, and self-care behaviors. The outcome variable was the latest Hb A1c rate. Results: The mean age of participants was 35.8±10.5 years. The average Hb A1c was 7.4± 1.55%. 35.0% of participants brushed their teeth twice a day or more and 60.8% flossed rarely. The proportion of Hb A1c <7% was higher in three groups including the participants who had information about the effect of periodontal disease on diabetes (p= 0.032), participants who brushed twice a day or more (p= 0 .014), and those who used dental floss once a day or more (p< 0.001). The likelihood of having Hb A1c <7% in participants who had information about the effect of periodontal disease on diabetes was about three times more than those who had no information (OR= 3.05, p= 0.036). Furthermore, it was about six times higher in participants who used dental floss once a day or more than those who used rarely (OR= 5.66, p= 0.001). Conclusion: Results of the present study show that people who had better oral health self-care behaviors had better Hb A1c and diabetes control.
