Thermal energy storage enhancement of latent heat thermal energy storage systems by Low, Zheng Hua

“…With respect to horizontal fins, positively inclined fins of +15º and +30º delayed the full melt time by 3.8% and 4.0%, respectively, while negatively inclined fins at -15º and -30º improved the melt fraction difference by up to 5.2%. Three fin lengths corresponding to dimensionless lengths of 0.375, 0.625 and 0.875 were numerically studied together with varying angles. …”

Optimized GPU algorithms for sparse data problems by Pham, Nguyen Quang Anh

“…Our SpGEMM algorithm efficiently enumerates all the work done during a computation to achieve perfect load balancing, and also uses a randomized algorithm to nearly optimally partition the matrix into pieces small enough to be operated on using the fast but limited amount of shared memory. It is up to 2.5× faster than the state of the art GPU SpGEMM algorithm on the most difficult, unstructured matrices. …”

From node embedding to community embedding on graphs by Cavallari, Sandro

“…We further developed an efficient inference algorithm for ComE+ by maintaining the complexity as low as O(|V| + |E|). We evaluated the proposed algorithms on multiple real-world data sets and showed that they improve graph visualization and outperform the state-of-the-art baselines in various application tasks, e.g., community detection and node classification. …”
