Algorithms for planning and executing multi-roboat shapeshifting
… by proposing methods for planning and executing multi-Roboat shapeshifting sequences. Shapeshifting allows for a group of ASVs to autonomously self-reconfigure and is absolutely critical in order to realize the proposed use cases. The presented algorithms were developed for use on a …

Dynamic loop vectorization for executing OpenCL kernels on CPUs
… in parallel on different CPU threads, and executing work-items within a work-group in one thread serially via loop-based serialization or in parallel via SIMD vectorization. SIMD vectorization is particularly difficult where control divergence is present. This thesis proposes a technique …

Defining, Executing and Visualizing Representative Workflows in a Retail Domain
<p>Our lives are filled with routine activities that we do more or less on auto-pilot such as driving to work and cooking. This thesis explores a workflow representation as a way to represent such activities of daily living. The domain of a retail store environment is used. Workflows are initially …

Query-index co-optimization executing query templates for complex text search
Nowadays, many complex text search systems, such as Entity Search or Topic Search, have been proposed to allow users to retrieve fine granularity units (e.g., entities or topics) inside documents directly. As those search systems target on more complex search tasks, the traditional query processing …

Cost-Effective Resource Configurations for Executing Data-Intensive Workloads in Public Clouds
… a public cloud, such that the monetary cost of executing data-intensive workloads is minimized. We formulate the problem of provisioning and include constructs to exploit a cloud’s elasticity to include any number of resources to host a multi-tenant database system prior to execution. The …

Worst-Case Timing Analysis of Concurrently Executing DMA I/O and Programs
A cycle-stealing DMA I/O task is allowed to proceed only when the CPU does not need the system bus. As a result, the execution time of a cycle-stealing DMA I/O task is affected by a set of CPU tasks which execute concurrently with the I/O task. We discuss the problem of bounding the WCET of a …

Architectural and Software Support for Executing Numerical Applications on High Performance Computers
Numerical applications require large amounts of computing power. Although shared memory multiprocessors provide a cost-effective platform for parallel execution of numerical programs, parallel processing has not delivered the expected performance on these machines. There are two crucial steps in …

Resilience Model for Teams of Autonomous Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV) Executing Surveillance Missions
<p>Teams of low-cost Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) have gained acceptance as an alternative for cooperatively searching and surveilling terrains. These UAVs are assembled with low-reliability components, so unit failures are possible. Losing UAVs to failures decreases the team's coverage …

Executing Entrepreneurial Leadership Strategies for the Sustainability of SMEs in Muar, Johor, Malaysia
SMEs have been the backbone of the economy of Malaysia, contributing to Malaysia’s GDP, employment and exports. However, the growth rate of SMEs in Malaysia has declined since 2017 and the failure rates of SMEs were high, and this has affected the economy of Malaysia. One main reason for SMEs’ high …

Strategic project management concept for executing research and development projects in public research organisations in Nigeria: an empirical study
As observed from the reviewed literature, the execution of research and development (R and D) projects in Nigeria is challenged by many social, political and economic factors interacting in complex and dynamic ways. This interaction is reflected in the history of science and technology in Nigeria, …
