Task allocation and scheduling for distributed job execution by Guan, Yitong

“…We extend conventional max-min fairness for resource allocation in a single machine or machine cluster to distributed job execution over multiple sites and define Aggregate Max-min Fairness (AMF) which requires the aggregate resource allocation across all sites to be max-min fair. …”

MC-Fluid: Multi-core Fluid-based Mixed-Criticality Scheduling by Lee, Jaewoo, Ramanathan, Saravanan, Phan, Kieu-My, Easwaran, Arvind, Shin, Insik, Lee, Insup

“…We derive an exact schedulability test for this algorithm, and also present an optimal strategy for assigning the fractional execution rates to tasks. Since fluid-model based scheduling is not implementable on real hardware, we also present a transformation algorithm from fluid-schedule to a non-fluid one. …”

Slip deficit in central Nepal: omen for a repeat of the 1344 AD earthquake? by Bollinger, L., Tapponnier, Paul, Sapkota, S. N., Klinger, Y.

“…Taking into account charcoal’s age inheritance, we revisit the timing of terrace offsets at key sites to compare them with the seismic record since 1200 AD. The location, extent, and moment of the 1833 and 2015 events imply that they released only a small part of the regional slip deficit on a deep thrust segment that stopped north of the Siwaliks. …”

Unveiling the importance of controllable growth of c-axis oriented Sn-doped ZnO nanorod arrays: Towards humidity sensing applications by Ahmad Syakirin, Ismail @ Rosdi, Mohamad Hafiz, Mamat, Ruziana, Mohamed, Embong, Z., Kossar, Shahnaz

“…Morphology images taken using a Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscope (FESEM) demonstrated an enlargement of the average diameter of the nanorod arrays from 55 nm at 5 min immersion to 122 nm at 200 min immersion. The cross-sectional and surface elemental analysis showed that the sample immersed for 60 min has the highest detection of Sn, with a bulk concentration of 1.8 at.% and surface concentration of 1 at.%. …”
