description: Abstract: "In developing a distributed file system, there are several good reasons for implementing the client file cache manager as a user-level process. These include ease of implementation, increased portability, and minimal impact on kernel size. For reasons of compatibility it is also desirable to use a standard file intercept mechanism on the client. The Sun VFS/Vnode file system interface is such a standard. However, this interface is designed for kernel-based file systems, and a user-level cache manager that used the Vnode mechanism would pay a large performance penalty due to the high number of kernel to cache manager context switches per file system call.This paper describes our solution to the problem for the Coda file system. By using a relatively small amount of kernel code to cache critical information, we are able to retain the much larger and more complex components of the Coda cache manager in a user level process. The measurements of Coda presented here confirm the performance benefits of this strategy, and indicate the relative merits of caching different kinds of information in the kernel."

description: A critical constraint on solar system formation is the high $^{26}$Al/$^{27}$Al abundance ratio of 5 $\times 10^{-5}$ at the time of formation, which was about 17 times higher than the average Galactic ratio, while the $^{60}$Fe/$^{56}$Fe value was about $2 \times 10^{-8}$, lower than the Galactic value. This challenges the assumption that a nearby supernova was responsible for the injection of these short-lived radionuclides into the early solar system. We show that this conundrum can be resolved if the Solar System was formed by triggered star formation at the edge of a Wolf-Rayet (W-R) bubble. Aluminium-26 is produced during the evolution of the massive star, released in the wind during the W-R phase, and condenses into dust grains that are seen around W-R stars. The dust grains survive passage through the reverse shock and the low density shocked wind, reach the dense shell swept-up by the bubble, detach from the decelerated wind and are injected into the shell. Some portions of this shell subsequently collapses to form the dense cores that give rise to solar-type systems. The subsequent aspherical supernova does not inject appreciable amounts of $^{60}$Fe into the proto-solar-system, thus accounting for the observed low abundance of $^{60}$Fe. We discuss the details of various processes within the model and conclude that it is a viable model that can explain the initial abundances of $^{26}$Al and $^{60}$Fe. We estimate that 1-16% of all Sun-like stars could have formed in such a setting of triggered star formation in the shell of a WR bubble.

description: This paper, the second in a series of two, provides a set of recommendations that the American Astronomical Society (AAS) can take to create a more diverse and inclusive professional society for astronomers, with a focus on women astronomers. As noted in Paper I, now is the time for the AAS to take decisive action to transform astronomy into a diverse and inclusive profession. By combining the results of our 2019 survey, which is described in Paper I, peer-reviewed academic literature, and findings from many of the white papers submitted to Astro2020, the CSWA has developed 26 specific actions the AAS can take to help end harassment and bullying in astronomy; advance career development for astronomers who are women, members of other underrepresented groups, and intersections of these populations; and improve the climate and culture of AAS meetings. Actions to reduce rates of harassment and bullying include improvements to the AAS's anti-harassment policies and procedures and the development of astronomy-specific anti-harassment training resources. Actions to advance career development include creating a compensation database, improving how jobs are posted in the AAS Job Register, and supporting/enhancing a distance mentorship program. Finally, we call on the AAS to continue improving the accessibility of AAS meetings and to continue to support meeting sessions whose focus is to discuss issues of equity, diversity, and inclusion.

description: In this paper we present an efficient triangle counting algorithm which can be adapted to the semistreaming model [12]. The key idea of our algorithm is to combine the sampling algorithm of [31,32] and the partitioning of the set of vertices into a high degree and a low degree subset respectively as in [1], treating each set appropriately. We obtain a running time O(m+m3/2Δlogntϵ2) and an ε approximation (multiplicative error), where n is the number of vertices, m the number of edges and Δ the maximum number of triangles an edge is contained. Furthermore, we show how this algorithm can be adapted to the semistreaming model with space usage O(m1/2logn+m3/2Δlogntϵ2) and a constant number of passes (three) over the graph stream. We apply our methods in various networks with several millions of edges and we obtain excellent results. Finally, we propose a random projection based method for triangle counting and provide a sufficient condition to obtain an estimate with low variance.
Corpus specificity in LSA and Word2vec: the role of out-of-domain documents

description: Latent Semantic Analysis (LSA) and Word2vec are some of the most widely used word embeddings. Despite the popularity of these techniques, the precise mechanisms by which they acquire new semantic relations between words remain unclear. In the present article we investigate whether LSA and Word2vec capacity to identify relevant semantic dimensions increases with size of corpus. One intuitive hypothesis is that the capacity to identify relevant dimensions should increase as the amount of data increases. However, if corpus size grow in topics which are not specific to the domain of interest, signal to noise ratio may weaken. Here we set to examine and distinguish these alternative hypothesis. To investigate the effect of corpus specificity and size in word-embeddings we study two ways for progressive elimination of documents: the elimination of random documents vs. the elimination of documents unrelated to a specific task. We show that Word2vec can take advantage of all the documents, obtaining its best performance when it is trained with the whole corpus. On the contrary, the specialization (removal of out-of-domain documents) of the training corpus, accompanied by a decrease of dimensionality, can increase LSA word-representation quality while speeding up the processing time. Furthermore, we show that the specialization without the decrease in LSA dimensionality can produce a strong performance reduction in specific tasks. From a cognitive-modeling point of view, we point out that LSA's word-knowledge acquisitions may not be efficiently exploiting higher-order co-occurrences and global relations, whereas Word2vec does.

skin tissue cultivation

description: Skin is the largest organ of every mammal and protects against sources of danger like hypothermia or dehydration. Skin defects are often caused by soft tissue trauma, burns, or surgical resections. Consequently, treatment efforts are aimed at restoring skin integrity on the one hand. Nevertheless, reconstruction of the underlying connective tissue is important for a full functionality of the tissue as well, on the other hand. Therefore, new technologies are under investigation, allowing for the de novo engineering of connective tissue and skin within the patient’s body. The arterio-venous (AV) loop technique represents one such promising approach. To this end, a vascular loop is generated microsurgically, placed inside a Teflon chamber, accompanied by a decellularized matrix, and subsequently implanted under the patient’s skin for three to four weeks. In the present study, we investigated new stereolithographic strategies to print patient tailored chambers. These newly designed chambers can help address several new properties: their geometry is tailored to the individual implantation site of the patient and their material is more elastic allowing for more comfort during the cultivation phase. We investigated new classes of photopolymers, which are more elastic than Teflon and can be photo crosslinked. We tested them for their biocompatibility using 3T3-fibroblast cell culture and optimized the crosslinking protocols of the polymer using FTIR-analysis and improved the respective washing protocols. Furthermore, their mechanical properties and sewability are important for fixation of the chamber during the time of cultivation. Therefore, simple mechanical tests have been carried out.

description: The obliquity of the Earth, which controls our seasons, varies by only ~2.5 degrees over ~40,000 years, and its eccentricity varies by only ~0.05 over 100,000 years. Nonetheless, these small variations influence Earth's ice ages. For exoplanets, however, variations can be significantly larger. Previous studies of the habitability of moonless Earth-like exoplanets have found that high obliquities, high eccentricities, and dynamical variations can extend the outer edge of the habitable zone by preventing runaway glaciation (snowball states). We expand upon these studies by exploring the orbital dynamics with a semi-analytic model that allows us to map broad regions of parameter space. We find that in general, the largest drivers of obliquity variations are secular spin-orbit resonances. We show how the obliquity varies in several test cases, including Kepler-62 f, across a wide range of orbital and spin parameters. These obliquity variations, alongside orbital variations, will have a dramatic impact on the climates of such planets.

The spectra thereby obtained show a complex pattern of absorption and—in the case of H216O—emission, with numerous features covering a wide range of LSR velocities (-130 to 130 km s-1) and representing absorption both in gas associated with Sgr B2 as well as by several components of foreground gas along the line of sight. The ortho-water abundance derived for the absorbing foreground gas is ~6 × 10-7 relative to H2.

description: Computationally efficient task execution is very important for autonomous mobile robots endowed with limited on-board computational capabilities. Most robot control approaches assume fixed state and action representations, and use a single algorithm to map states to actions. However, not all instances of a given task require equally complex algorithms and equally detailed representations. The main motivation for this work is a desire to reduce the computational footprint of performing a task by allowing the robot to run simpler algorithms whenever possible, and resort to more complex algorithms only when needed. We contribute the Multi-Resolution Task Execution (MRTE) algorithm that utilizes human feedback to learn a mapping from a given state to an appropriate detail resolution consisting of a state and action representation, and an algorithm. We then present Model Plus Correction (M+C), an algorithm that complements an existing robot controller with corrective human feedback to further improve the task execution performance. Finally, we introduce Multi-Resolution Model Plus Correction (MRM+C) as a combination of MRTE and M+C. We provide formal definitions of MRTE, M+C, and MRM+C, showing how they relate to general robot control problem and Learning from Demonstration (LfD) methods. We present detailed experimental results demonstrating the effectiveness of proposed methods on a simulated goal-directed humanoid obstacle avoidance task.

description: Advancements in cloud computing and distributed computing have fostered research activities in Computer science. As a result, researchers have made significant progress in Neural Networks, Evolutionary Computing Algorithms like Genetic, and Differential evolution algorithms. These algorithms are used to develop clustering, recommendation, and question-and-answering systems using various text representation and similarity measurement techniques. In this research paper, Universal Sentence Encoder (USE) is used to capture the semantic similarity of text; And the transfer learning technique is used to apply Genetic Algorithm (GA) and Differential Evolution (DE) algorithms to search and retrieve relevant top N documents based on user query. The proposed approach is applied to the Stanford Question and Answer (SQuAD) Dataset to identify a user query. Finally, through experiments, we prove that text documents can be efficiently represented as sentence embedding vectors using USE to capture the semantic similarity, and by comparing the results of the Manhattan Distance, GA, and DE algorithms we prove that the evolutionary algorithms are good at finding the top N results than the traditional ranking approach.

description: Abstract: "In recent years, Distributed Hash Tables (DHTs) have been proposed as a fundamental building block for Internet-scale distributed applications. Important functionalities such as searching has been added to the DHT's basic look up capability. However, supporting range queries efficiently remains a difficult problem. In this paper, we describe an efficient algorithm that decomposes a range query with length R[subscript q] into O(log R[subscript q]) sub-queries that are resolved by separate nodes corresponding to each sub-query. Our system utilizes a novel logical tree data structure, the Range Search Tree (RST), which automatically groups registrations based on their values explicitly. Coupled with a dynamic load balancing mechanism, our system can handle both point and range queries efficiently regardless of the distribution of the registrations and queries. Our algorithm is fully distributed and we avoid conventional bottleneck problems encountered by tree-based systems. Extensive simulation results validate the effectiveness of the system."

description: This paper presents a multi-objective version of the Cat Swarm Optimization Algorithm called the Grid-based Multi-objective Cat Swarm Optimization Algorithm (GMOCSO). Convergence and diversity preservation are the two main goals pursued by modern multi-objective algorithms to yield robust results. To achieve these goals, we first replace the roulette wheel method of the original CSO algorithm with a greedy method. Then, two key concepts from Pareto Archived Evolution Strategy Algorithm (PAES) are adopted: the grid system and double archive strategy. Several test functions and a real-world scenario called the Pressure vessel design problem are used to evaluate the proposed algorithm's performance. In the experiment, the proposed algorithm is compared with other well-known algorithms using different metrics such as Reversed Generational Distance, Spacing metric, and Spread metric. The optimization results show the robustness of the proposed algorithm, and the results are further confirmed using statistical methods and graphs. Finally, conclusions and future directions were presented..

description: We propose an indexing method for time sequences for processing similarity queries. We use the Discrete Fourier Transform (DFT) to map time sequences to the frequency domain, the crucial observation being that, for most sequences of practical interest, only the first few frequencies are strong. Another important observation is Parseval's theorem, which specifies that the Fourier transform preserves the Euclidean distance in the time or frequency domain. Having thus mapped sequences to a lower-dimensionality space by using only the first few Fourier coefficients, we use R * -trees to index the sequences and efficiently answer similarity queries. We provide experimental results which show that our method is superior to search based on sequential scanning. Our experiments show that a few coefficients (1–3) are adequate to provide good performance. The performance gain of our method increases with the number and length of sequences.

description: Many modern systems exploit data redundancy to improve efficiency. These systems split data into chunks, generate identifiers for each of them, and compare the identifiers among other data items to identify duplicate chunks. As a result, chunk size becomes a critical parameter for the efficiency of these systems: it trades potentially improved similarity detection (smaller chunks) with increased overhead to represent more chunks. Unfortunately, the similarity between files increases unpredictably with smaller chunk sizes, even for data of the same type. Existing systems often pick one chunk size that is “good enough” for many cases because they lack efficient techniques to determine the benefits at other chunk sizes. This paper addresses this deficiency via two contributions: (1) we present multi-resolution (MR) handprinting, an application-independent technique that efficiently estimates similarity between data items at different chunk sizes using a compact, multi-size representation of the data; (2) we then evaluate the application of MR handprints to workloads from peer-to-peer, file transfer, and storage systems, demonstrating that the chunk size selection enabled by MR handprints can lead to real improvements over using a fixed chunk size in these systems.

Airy beams are generated and controlled to achieve different propagating trajectories, and the signal transmission characteristics of these beams around the obstacle are investigated. Our results confirm that, by optimising their ballistic trajectories, Airy beams are able to bypass obstacles with more signal energy and thus improve the communication performance compared with normal Gaussian beams.

description: Learning and memory are intertwined in our brain and their relationship is at the core of several recent neural network models. In particular, the Attention-Gated MEmory Tagging model (AuGMEnT) is a reinforcement learning network with an emphasis on biological plausibility of memory dynamics and learning. We find that the AuGMEnT network does not solve some hierarchical tasks, where higher-level stimuli have to be maintained over a long time, while lower-level stimuli need to be remembered and forgotten over a shorter timescale. To overcome this limitation, we introduce hybrid AuGMEnT, with leaky or short-timescale and non-leaky or long-timescale units in memory, that allow to exchange lower-level information while maintaining higher-level one, thus solving both hierarchical and distractor tasks.

A high-frequency (20 MHz) eddy-current inspection system was used to obtain 2D scans of a range of CFRP samples of differing ply stacking sequences. The complex electrical impedance scan data was analysed using Radon-transform techniques to quickly and simply determine the dominant fibre orientations present in the structure. This method is compared to 2D-fast Fourier transform (2D-FFT) analysis of the same data and shown to give superior quantitative results with comparatively fewer computational steps and corrections. Further analysis is presented demonstrating and examining a method for preserving the complex information inherent within the eddy-current scan data during Radon-transform analysis. This investigation shows that the real and imaginary components of the ECT data encode information about the sacking sequence allowing the distinction between composites with different stacking structures. This new analysis technique could be used for in-process analysis of CFRP structures as a more accurate characterisation method, reducing the chance of costly manufacturing errors.

description: In this work, we use two decadal sunspot number series reconstructed from cosmogenic radionuclide data (14C in tree trunks, SN-14C and 10Be in polar ice, SN-10Be) and the Extreme Value Theory to study variability of solar activity during the last 9 millennia. The peaks-over-threshold technique was used to compute, in particular, the shape parameter of the generalized Pareto distribution for different thresholds. Its negative value implies an upper bound of the extreme SN-10Be and SN-14C time series. The return level for 1000 and 10000 years were estimated leading to values lower than the maximum observed values, expected for the 1000-year, but not for the 10000-year return levels, for both series. A comparison of these results with those obtained using the observed sunspot numbers from telescopic observations during the last four centuries suggest that the main characteristics of solar activity have already been recorded in the telescopic period (from 1610 to nowadays) which covers the full range of solar variability from a Grand minimum to a Grand maximum.

description: Fast similarity searching in large time sequence databases has typically used Euclidean distance as a dissimilarity metric. However, for several applications, including matching of voice, audio and medical signals (e.g., electrocardiograms), one is required to permit local accelerations and decelerations in the rate of sequences, leading to a popular, field tested dissimilarity metric called the “time warping” distance. From the indexing viewpoint, this metric presents two major challenges: (a) it does not lead to any natural indexable “features”, and (b) comparing two sequences requires time quadratic in the sequence length. To address each problem, we propose to use: (a) a modification of the so called “FastMap”, to map sequences into points, with little compromise of “recall” (typically zero); and (b) a fast linear test, to help us discard quickly many of the false alarms that FastMap will typically introduce. Using both ideas in cascade, our proposed method achieved up to an order of magnitude speed-up over sequential scanning on both real and synthetic datasets

description: Bipolar plates are an essential component of electrochemical cells and are used in fuel cells for media supply and electrical contacting, for example. The media supply is realized by flow fields, which are introduced into the plates by shaping processes. Metallic bipolar plates are coated to increase their electrical conductivity and service life. There is a considerable need for research into materials, processes and manufacturing strategies in order to develop cost-effective solutions that are suitable for mass production. Manufacturing strategies based on roll-to-roll processes offer considerable potential and are being further developed for this purpose. The latest developments in this area were addressed within a Fraunhofer project. Both the coating of steel strip with carbon-based coatings and the subsequent forming of the steel strip were investigated. It was shown that PVD coatings from strip processes and batch processes are electrically and electrochemically comparable. Furthermore, it was shown that the coated steel strips are formable and that the production of bipolar half-shells is possible.

description: An interplay of magnetic fields and gravitation drives accretion and outflows near black holes. However, a specific mechanism is still a matter of debate; it is very likely that different processes dominate under various conditions. In particular, for the acceleration of particles and their collimation in jets, an ordered component of the magnetic field seems to be essential. Here we discuss the role of large-scale magnetic fields in transporting the charged particles and dust grains from the bound orbits in the equatorial plane of a rotating (Kerr) black hole and the resulting acceleration along trajectories escaping the system in a direction parallel to the symmetry axis (perpendicular to the accretion disk). We consider a specific scenario of destabilization of circular geodesics of initially neutral matter by charging (e.g., due to photoionization). Some particles may be set on escaping trajectories and attain relativistic velocity. The case of charged particles differs from charged dust grains by their charge-to-mass ratio, but the acceleration mechanism operates in a similar manner. It appears that the chaotic dynamics controls the outflow and supports the formation of near-horizon escape zones. We employ the technique of recurrence plots to characterize the onset of chaos in the outflowing medium. We investigate the system numerically and construct the basin-boundary plots, which show the location and the extent of the escape zones. The effects of black hole spin and magnetic field strength on the formation and location of escape zones are discussed, and the maximal escape velocity is computed.

description: The design of linear logic programming languages and theorem provers opens a number of new implementation challenges not present in more traditional logic languages such as Horn clauses (Prolog) and hereditary Harrop formulas (λProlog and Elf). Among these, the problem of efficiently managing the linear context when solving a goal is of crucial importance for the use of these systems in non-trivial applications. This paper studies this problem in the case of Lolli [10], though its results have application to other systems including those based on linear type theory. We first give a proof-theoretic presentation of the operational semantics of this language as a resolution calculus. We then present a series of resource management systems designed to eliminate the non-determinism in the distribution of linear formulas that undermines the efficiency of a direct implementation of this system.
