description: Cloud service providers heavily colocate high-priority, latency-sensitive (LS), and low-priority, best-effort (BE) DNN inference services on the same GPU to improve resource utilization in data centers. Among the critical shared GPU resources, there has been very limited analysis on the dynamic allocation of compute units and VRAM bandwidth, mainly for two reasons: (1) The native GPU resource management solutions are either hardware-specific, or unable to dynamically allocate resources to different tenants, or both; (2) NVIDIA doesn't expose interfaces for VRAM bandwidth allocation, and the software stack and VRAM channel architectures are black-box, both of which limit the software-level resource management. These drive prior work to design either conservative sharing policies detrimental to throughput, or static resource partitioning only applicable to a few GPU models.
 To bridge this gap, this paper proposes SGDRC, a fully software-defined dynamic VRAM bandwidth and compute unit management solution for concurrent DNN inference services. SGDRC aims at guaranteeing service quality, maximizing the overall throughput, and providing general applicability to NVIDIA GPUs. SGDRC first reveals a general VRAM channel hash mapping architecture of NVIDIA GPUs through comprehensive reverse engineering and eliminates VRAM channel conflicts using software-level cache coloring. SGDRC applies bimodal tensors and tidal SM masking to dynamically allocate VRAM bandwidth and compute units, and guides the allocation of resources based on offline profiling. We evaluate 11 mainstream DNNs with real-world workloads on two NVIDIA GPUs. The results show that compared with the state-of-the-art GPU sharing solutions, SGDRC achieves the highest SLO attainment rates (99.0% on average), and improves overall throughput by up to 1.47x and BE job throughput by up to 2.36x.

title: Besonderheiten der Besteuerung, Rechnungslegung und Prüfung von Leasinggesellschaften
Creators: name: Fux, Karl
Year: 2008

description: Das Finanzierungsinstrument Leasing ist im heutigen Wirtschaftsverkehr nicht mehr wegzudenken. Spezifische gesetzliche Regelungen zum Leasing fehlen in so gut wie allen Bereichen. Das BMF versucht zwar durch die in Abschnitt 2.5 der EStR 2000 implementierten Zurechnungsregeln bei Leasingverträgen Rahmenbedingungen zu schaffen, an denen sich die Marktteilnehmer orientieren können, da diesen jedoch keine normative Wirkung zukommt, kommt es selbst bei Einhaltung dieser detaillierten Regeln, in der Praxis immer wieder zu Konflikten mit der Finanzverwaltung und den Höchstgerichten. Die Besonderheiten des Leasinggeschäfts im Jahresabschluss von Leasinggesellschaften entsprechend der tatsächlichen wirtschaftlichen Verhältnisse abzubilden, gelingt mit den zur Verfügung stehenden Rahmenbedingung durch das 3. Buch UGB nicht. Der Jahresabschluss einer Leasinggesellschaft spiegelt daher meines Erachtens in der Regel ein gänzlich falsches Bild wider, der Bilanzleser bekommt, nicht zuletzt auf Grund der auf der Passivseite abgebildeten Refinanzierungsverbindlichkeiten und Eigenmittel des Leasingnehmers, den Eindruck, dass es sich dabei um ein in höchstem Maße verschuldetes Unternehmen handelt. Die Problematik besteht im Wesentlichen darin, dass Finanzierungsleasingverträge starke Merkmale von Kreditverträgen aufweisen. Das Ertragspotential bei Leasingverträgen besteht nicht aus der Summe der Leasingraten (= Umsatzerlöse), sondern lediglich aus den darin enthaltenen Zinserträgen. Der Überschuss der Zinserträge über den Zinsaufwand aus der Refinanzierung stellt den tatsächlichen Gewinn aus dem Leasinggeschäft bei Leasinggesellschaften dar. Die Besonderheiten des Leasinggeschäfts, insbesondere die Probleme auf dem Gebiet der Besteuerung und der Rechnungslegung bei Leasinggesellschaften haben in weiterer Folge auch direkten Einfluss auf die Prüfungstätigkeit des Abschlussprüfers der Leasinggesellschaft. Eine umfassende Kenntnis der Geschäftstätigkeit von Leasinggesellschaften ist zur korrekten Erfüllung des Prüfungsauftrags unbedingt von Nöten.

description: The ringdown gravitational wave signal arising e.g., in the final stage of a black hole binary merger, contains important information about the properties of the remnant, and can potentially be used to perform clean tests of general relativity. However, interpreting the ringdown signal, in particular when it is the loudest, requires understanding the role of nonlinearities and their potential impact on modelling this phase using quasinormal modes. Here, we focus on a particular nonlinear effect arising from the change in the black hole's mass and spin due to the partial absorption of a quasinormal perturbation. We isolate and systematically study this third-order, secular effect by evolving the equations governing linear metric perturbations on the background of a spinning black hole, but allowing the properties of the background to evolve in a prescribed way. We find that this leads to the excitation of quasinormal modes with higher polar angular number, retrograde modes (counter-rotating with respect to the black hole), and overtones, as well as giving rise to a component of the signal at early times that cannot be fully described using quasinormal modes. Quantifying these effects, we find that they may be relevant in analyzing the ringdown in black hole mergers.

description: Logic programming, as exemplified by datalog, defines the meaning of a program as its unique smallest model: the deductive closure of its inference rules. However, many problems call for an enumeration of models that vary along some set of choices while maintaining structural and logical constraints -- there is no single canonical model. The notion of stable models for logic programs with negation has successfully captured programmer intuition about the set of valid solutions for such problems, giving rise to a family of programming languages and associated solvers known as answer set programming. Unfortunately, the definition of a stable model is frustratingly indirect, especially in the presence of rules containing free variables.
 We propose a new formalism, finite-choice logic programming, that uses choice, not negation, to admit multiple solutions. Finite-choice logic programming contains all the expressive power of the stable model semantics, gives meaning to a new and useful class of programs, and enjoys a least-fixed-point interpretation over a novel domain. We present an algorithm for exploring the solution space and prove it correct with respect to our semantics. Our implementation, the Dusa logic programming language, has performance that compares favorably with state-of-the-art answer set solvers and exhibits more predictable scaling with problem size.

Για το σκοπό αυτό πραγματοποιήθηκε μια ποσοτική συσχετιστική έρευνα σε δείγμα 150 ενήλικων ηλικίας 18 έως 35 ετών (58% γυναίκες, μέση ηλικία 25.9 έτη). Η συλλογή των δεδομένων έγινε με βάση την κλίμακα ποιότητας ζωής SF-36, την κλίμακα αξιολόγησης του άγχους Hamilton και την κλίμακα αξιολόγησης του επιπέδου φυσικής δραστηριότητας IPAQ. Τα αποτελέσματα έδειξαν πως το 39.3% των νεαρών ενήλικων είχαν χαμηλή φυσική δραστηριότητα (ΜΕΤ-λεπτά/ εβδομάδα <600), το 47.3% των νεαρών ενήλικων είχαν μέτρια φυσική δραστηριότητα (600<ΜΕΤ-λεπτά/εβδομάδα <3000) και το 13.3% των νεαρών ενήλικων είχαν έντονη φυσική δραστηριότητα (ΜΕΤ-λεπτά/ εβδομάδα >3000). Τα αποτελέσματα της έρευνας επιβεβαίωσαν πως οι νεαροί ενήλικες με μέτρια ή έντονη φυσική δραστηριότητα έχουν σημαντικά χαμηλότερη συμπτωματολογία άγχους, σημαντικά καλύτερη ποιότητα ζωής στη διάσταση της σωματικής υγείας και σημαντικά καλύτερη ποιότητα ζωής στη διάσταση της ψυχικής υγείας. Τα ευρήματα της διπλωματικής εργασίας επιβεβαιώνουν πως η φυσική δραστηριότητα σε νεαρούς ενήλικες μπορεί να αποτελέσει έναν παράγοντα βελτίωσης της ποιότητας ζωής τους και της ψυχικής τους υγείας.
description: The aim of this thesis was to investigate the extent to which physical activity is related to the mental health and quality of life of young adult individuals. For this purpose, a quantitative correlational study was conducted on a sample of 150 adults aged 18 to 35 years (58% women, average age 25.9 years). Data collection was based on the SF-36 quality of life scale, the Hamilton anxiety rating scale, and the IPAQ physical activity level assessment scale. The results showed that 39.3% of young adults had low physical activity (MET-minutes/week <600), 47.3% had moderate physical activity (600 < MET-minutes/week < 3000), and 13.3% had vigorous physical activity (MET-minutes/week >3000). The research results confirmed that young adults with moderate or vigorous physical activity have significantly lower anxiety symptoms, significantly better quality of life in the physical health dimension, and significantly better quality of life in the mental health dimension. The findings of this thesis confirm that physical activity in young adults can be a factor in improving their quality of life and mental health.

title: Die negativen Auswirkungen des Ethnozentrismus und deren Vermeidung
Creators: name: Spendlingwimmer, Jiri

description: In einem Abschnitt zusammengefasst zeigt die Diplomarbeit anhand von kritischen Beispielen und begründet durch Fachliteratur, wie auch durch die Feldarbeit, dass das Problem des europäischen Ethnozentrismus oder Eurozentrismus auf vielen Gebieten existiert (Geschichte, Wissenschaften, internationale Entwicklung, (Vor-)urteile der Freiwilligen, etc.). Die Diplomarbeit zeigt auch, dass es neben Schatten auch Licht gibt, dass und wie eine positive Integration in die fremde Kultur möglich ist. Zusammenfassung der einzelnen Kapitel: I.Teil: Durch Quellenstudien an den Universitäten von Sevilla und der UCR (Costa Rica)begründete Darstellung der Grunddaten zum sozioökonomischen und kulturellen Kontext von Costa Rica. Zudem werden die wesentlichen Charakteristiken der Nichtregierungsorganisationen und ihrer Projekte und Tätigkeit beschrieben. II.Teil: Durch Quellenstudien an den Universitäten von Sevilla und der UCR (Costa Rica)begründete Darstellung von Definition und Ursprung des Ethnozentrismus, ergänzt durch verschiedene Beispiele: die britische und französische Kolonisation des „Orients“, die „Conquista“ und Kolonisation von Costa Rica durch Spanien, Ethnozentrismus in der Anthropologie, Ethnozentrismus der Anthropologen, Ethnozentrismus in der Entwicklungszusammenarbeit, diverse Fundamentalismen als Symptome des Ethnozentrismus. III.Teil: Meine Feldarbeit, die hauptsächlich aus der partizipativen Beobachtung und den Beiträgen ausgewählter Interviewpartner besteht, umfasst folgende Themenbereiche: - Allgemeine Informationen zu den Freiwilligen und dem Freiwilligenwesen in den NGO´s im Süden von Costa Rica - Identifizierung der ethnozentrischen Verhaltensmuster der Freiwilligen - Bestimmung von Eigenschaften in Bezug auf Kulturunterschiede und Kritik an der Kultur der Anderen. - Bestimmung von Eigenschaften, die eine positive Integration in oder Anpassung an die lokale Kultur fördern. - Über die Aktivitäten zur Weiterbildung und zur Förderung der interkulturellen Kompetenz, die die NGO´s für die Freiwilligen organisieren. Die vorliegende Untersuchung soll den NGO´s helfen, einerseits die Probleme zu erkennen und zu lösen, die sich aus dem Ethnozentrismus ergeben, und andererseits als Studientext dienen, beispielsweise im Rahmen von Vorbereitungsseminaren. Forschungen zum Thema "Europäischer Ethnozentrismus" bzw. Eurozentrismus an europäischen Universitäten fallen meines Erachtens auf durch ihr weitgehendes Fehlen(wenigstens am Institut für Völkerkunde – heute: für Kultur- und Sozialanthropologie - der Universität Wien und an der Abteilung für Sozialanthropologie der Universität von Sevilla). Die vorliegende Studie ist ein Beitrag, diese Lücke zu füllen. Ich habe die Hoffnung, dass Andere sie nutzen und in ihren Forschungen verwenden werden.

description: Lack of standardization and various intrinsic parameters for magnetic resonance (MR) image acquisition results in heterogeneous images across different sites and devices, which adversely affects the generalization of deep neural networks. To alleviate this issue, this work proposes a novel unsupervised harmonization framework that leverages normalizing flows to align MR images, thereby emulating the distribution of a source domain. The proposed strategy comprises three key steps. Initially, a normalizing flow network is trained to capture the distribution characteristics of the source domain. Then, we train a shallow harmonizer network to reconstruct images from the source domain via their augmented counterparts. Finally, during inference, the harmonizer network is updated to ensure that the output images conform to the learned source domain distribution, as modeled by the normalizing flow network. Our approach, which is unsupervised, source-free, and task-agnostic is assessed in the context of both adults and neonatal cross-domain brain MRI segmentation, as well as neonatal brain age estimation, demonstrating its generalizability across tasks and population demographics. The results underscore its superior performance compared to existing methodologies. The code is available at https://github.com/farzad-bz/Harmonizing-Flows

description: {We herein report on the calculation of thermoluminescence (TL) kinetic parameters determined from the TL emission of synthetic GdAlO3 (GAO) phosphors prepared by the co-precipitation method. The sample, characterized by means of X-ray diffraction with an orthorhombic phase structure (space group Pnma (62), shows complex glow curves consisting of at least four groups of components peaked at 100, 140, 240, and 290 °C where the two lower overlapped temperature peaks are difficult to identify using the $T_M-T_{stop}$. The coexistence of a continuum in the trap distribution (linked to the lower temperature peaks) and a discrete trap system (associated with the components at temperatures higher than 200 °C) can be distinguished. The estimation of the TL kinetic parameters is performed using GlowFit, TLAnal, the spreadsheet Origin, Computing Glow Curve Deconvolution (CGCD), and various heating rate (VHR) methods. However, only CGCD appears as the suitable technique for such purpose since it provides information on the TL physical process supported by mathematical models based on a linear combination of functions related to the First Order Kinetic approach.

description: Detector simulation and reconstruction are a significant computational bottleneck in particle physics. We develop Particle-flow Neural Assisted Simulations (Parnassus) to address this challenge. Our deep learning model takes as input a point cloud (particles impinging on a detector) and produces a point cloud (reconstructed particles). By combining detector simulations and reconstruction into one step, we aim to minimize resource utilization and enable fast surrogate models suitable for application both inside and outside large collaborations. We demonstrate this approach using a publicly available dataset of jets passed through the full simulation and reconstruction pipeline of the CMS experiment. We show that Parnassus accurately mimics the CMS particle flow algorithm on the (statistically) same events it was trained on and can generalize to jet momentum and type outside of the training distribution.

On equivalence of gauge-invariant models for massive integer-spin fields

description: There are several approaches to formulate gauge-invariant models for massive integer-spin fields in $d$ dimensions including the following: (i) in terms of symmetric tensor fields $ϕ_{μ_1 \dots μ_k} $, with $k = s, s-1, \dots , 0$, restricted to be double traceless for $k\geq 4$; and (ii) in terms of a quartet of $traceful$ symmetric tensor fields $ψ_{μ_1 \dots μ_k} $, of rank $k=s,s-1,s-2, s-3$. We demonstrate that these formulations in Minkowski space ${\mathbb M}^d$ are equivalent to the gauge-invariant theory for a massive integer-spin field proposed in 1989 by Pashnev. We also make use of the Klishevich-Zinoviev theory in ${\mathbb M}^d$ to derive a unique generalisation of the Singh-Hagen model for a massive integer-spin field in $d>4 $ dimensions.

description: Redescription mining is a data analysis technique that has found applications in diverse fields. The most used redescription mining approaches involve two phases: finding matching pairs among data attributes and extending the pairs. This process is relatively efficient when the number of attributes remains limited and when the attributes are Boolean, but becomes almost intractable when the data consist of many numerical attributes. In this paper, we present new algorithms that perform the matching and extension orders of magnitude faster than the existing approaches. Our algorithms are based on locality-sensitive hashing with a tailored approach to handle the discretisation of numerical attributes as used in redescription mining.

In this work, we generalize a novel parity-check circuit design principle called morphing circuits and apply it to BB codes. We define a new family of BB codes whose parity check circuits require a qubit connectivity of degree five instead of six while maintaining their numerical performance. Logical input/output to an ancillary surface code is also possible in a biplanar layout. Finally, we develop a general framework for designing morphing circuits and present a sufficient condition for its applicability to two-block group algebra codes

description: This study explores the instructional purpose of homework, focusing on its role in providing students at John J. Russell Memorial High School with an opportunity to practice and review class material. The research, employing a sequential explanatory mixed-method design, involved 140 junior high school students chosen through convenience sampling and interviewed using an adapted questionnaire and researcher-made interview guide. Findings revealed an average of two daily homework assignments, primarily in the subject of Technology and Livelihood Education (TLE). Approximately 42.9% of respondents allocated 30 minutes for homework, and a substantial 76.4% recognized its necessity. Students emphasized that understanding the class lesson made homework more manageable. The study uncovered no significant differences in students' perceptions of homework implementation. Despite societal challenges, the study asserts that homework remains undeniably helpful and crucial for students, playing a vital role in their classroom performances. The findings advocate for the continued implementation of homework as a beneficial and worthwhile educational practice.

description: Compositional learning, mastering the ability to combine basic concepts and construct more intricate ones, is crucial for human cognition, especially in human language comprehension and visual perception. This notion is tightly connected to generalization over unobserved situations. Despite its integral role in intelligence, there is a lack of systematic theoretical and experimental research methodologies, making it difficult to analyze the compositional learning abilities of computational models. In this paper, we survey the literature on compositional learning of AI models and the connections made to cognitive studies. We identify abstract concepts of compositionality in cognitive and linguistic studies and connect these to the computational challenges faced by language and vision models in compositional reasoning. We overview the formal definitions, tasks, evaluation benchmarks, various computational models, and theoretical findings. Our primary focus is on linguistic benchmarks and combining language and vision, though there is a large amount of research on compositional concept learning in the computer vision community alone. We cover modern studies on large language models to provide a deeper understanding of the cutting-edge compositional capabilities exhibited by state-of-the-art AI models and pinpoint important directions for future research.

description: Recent Kepler-space-telescope observations found more than 1000 superflares on 300 solar-type stars (e.g., Maeahra+2012 Nature; Shibayama+2013 ApJS). Many of the superflare stars show quasi-periodic brightness variations with the typical period of 1-30 days and the typical amplitude of 0.1-10 percent. We conducted spectroscopic observations of these superflare stars using Subaru/HDS and APO 3.5m telescope (Notsu+2015a&b, 2018 in prep). The projected rotation velocity (v sin i) values are consistent with brightness variation period, and there is a good correlation between Kepler brightness variation amplitude and the intensity of Ca II lines (Ca II H&K, Ca II 8542Å). These results support that the above brightness variations are caused by stellar rotation with large starspots, and existence of large starspots should be a key to understand superflares.

More detailed spectroscopic studies (e.g., activity cycle) of superflare stars are important, but Kepler target stars are faint and not appropriate for such detailed studies. TESS satellite, launched in April 2018, brings us a large sample of brighter (e.g., V < 12 mag) superflare stars. We have started spectroscopic monitoring observations of nearby active solar-type stars (superflare candidate stars) in the TESS field. These results can have good collaborations with multi-wavelength project observations (e.g., X-ray, UV, polarimetry) of young solar-type stars.

We demonstrate the three orders of magnitude enhancement of the third-harmonic generation from hBN metasurfaces driven by quasi-bound states in the continuum and accompanied by strong nonlinear circular dichroism at the resonances. This novel platform for chiral metaphotonics can be employed for achieving large circular dichroism combined with high-efficiency harmonic generation in a broad frequency range.
How Superbubble-Driven Outflows Shape Galaxies And Their Cgm

description: M* galaxies, with halo masses ~10^12 Msun, live in an interesting part of parameter space. Not only are they the "turnover" in the galaxy mass Schecter function, they also have the highest stellar mass (and baryon) fraction, very low bulge-to-disk ratios, and dominate the star formation of the epoch they live in. In this talk I will present the results of a sample of 18 cosmological M* galaxies, simulated using the state-of-the-art superbubble method for handling feedback from Type II Supernovae. I will show that the key to obtaining a realistic stellar mass to halo mass relation (SMHMR) is preventing the runaway growth of a massive bulge by driving outflows with large mass-loadings. If this happens, SN feedback alone can no longer effectively drive outflows from the galaxy, and star formation becomes unregulated. This is a key piece of evidence that the peak of the SMHMR is due to the shut down of SN regulation and the beginning of AGN regulation in more massive halos. I will also show how the interaction between hot outflows and the disk ISM, together with the potential well they live within, sets how much mass is entrained in a galactic wind/fountain, and how this can halt SN-driven winds in high- mass galaxies.  Finally, I will detail some issues dealing with the chaotic nature of the dynamics in galaxies.

Contact between languages has the potential to transmit vocabulary and other language features; however, this does not always happen. Here, an iterated learning model is used to examine, in a simple way, the resistance of languages to change during language contact. Iterated learning models are agent-based models of language change, they demonstrate that languages that are expressive and compositional arise spontaneously as a consequence of a language transmission bottleneck. A recently introduced type of iterated learning model, the Semi-Supervised ILM is used to simulate language contact. These simulations do not include many of the complex factors involved in language contact and do not model a population of speakers; nonetheless the model demonstrates that the dynamics which lead languages in the model to spontaneously become expressive and compositional, also cause a language to maintain its core traits even after mixing with another language.

description: Simulations of galaxy formation are mostly unable to resolve the energy-conserving phase of individual supernova events, having to resort to subgrid models to distribute the energy and momentum resulting from stellar feedback. However, the properties of these simulated galaxies, including the morphology, stellar mass formed and the burstiness of the star formation history, are highly sensitive to numerical choices adopted in these subgrid models. Using the {\small SMUGGLE} stellar feedback model, we compute idealized simulations of a $M_{\rm vir} \sim 10^{10} \, \msun$ dwarf galaxy, a regime where most simulation codes predict significant burstiness in star formation, resulting in strong gas flows that lead to the formation of dark matter cores. We find that by varying only the directional distribution of momentum imparted from supernovae to the surrounding gas, while holding the total momentum per supernova constant, bursty star formation may be amplified or completely suppressed, and the total stellar mass formed can vary by as much as a factor of $\sim 3$. In particular, when momentum is primarily directed perpendicular to the gas disk, less bursty and lower overall star formation rates result, yielding less gas turbulence, more disky morphologies and a retention of cuspy dark matter density profiles. An improved understanding of the non-linear coupling of stellar feedback into inhomogeneous gaseous media is thus needed to make robust predictions for stellar morphologies and dark matter core formation in dwarfs independent of uncertain numerical choices in the baryonic treatment.

description: We demonstrate that chiral response can be achieved in resonant metasurfaces with a monoclinic lattice symmetry (the so-called Bravais oblique lattices) where the mirror symmetry is broken by the lattice asymmetry and also by a substrate, whereas each individual meta-atom remains fully achiral. We describe the underlying physics by introducing a mode chirality parameter as a quantitative measure of the lattice chiral eigenmodes. We confirm experimentally selective linear and nonlinear chiral interaction of resonant silicon metasurfaces with circularly polarized light.

Reconciling Kaplan and Chinchilla Scaling Laws

description: Kaplan et al. [2020] (`Kaplan') and Hoffmann et al. [2022] (`Chinchilla') studied the scaling behavior of transformers trained on next-token language prediction. These studies produced different estimates for how the number of parameters ($N$) and training tokens ($D$) should be set to achieve the lowest possible loss for a given compute budget ($C$). Kaplan: $N_\text{optimal} \propto C^{0.73}$, Chinchilla: $N_\text{optimal} \propto C^{0.50}$. This paper finds that much of this discrepancy can be attributed to Kaplan counting non-embedding rather than total parameters, combined with their analysis being performed at small scale. Simulating the Chinchilla study under these conditions produces biased scaling coefficients close to Kaplan's. Hence, this paper reaffirms Chinchilla's scaling coefficients, by explaining the primary cause of Kaplan's original overestimation. As a second contribution, the paper explains differences in the reported relationships between loss and compute. These findings lead us to recommend that future scaling studies use total parameters and compute.
