Congestion Control in Machine Learning Clusters
… define the compatibility criterion using a novel geometric abstraction. Our abstraction rolls time around a circle and rotates the communication phases of jobs to identify fully compatible jobs. Using this abstraction, we demonstrate up to 1.3× improvement in the average training iteration time of …

Framing Latin American Art: Artists, Critics, Institutions and the Configuration of a Regional Identity
… how the central concepts of anthropophagy, geometric abstraction, and the political came to characterize the art of the region. Drawing on extensive archival research and interviews, this work traces a local genealogy, thus offering a different starting point for understanding the Latin …

Airport landscape as open-ended heritage the future of Class A airfields in the UK
… as open-ended spatial heritage. Given their geometric abstraction and physical patterns, the airfields could be interpreted in unexpected ways in the distant future, as their original technology and purpose become less well understood. To preserve and allow for the potential of such …

Usurping architecture : sculptural resistance to the built environment
… to architecture. I then examine the role of geometric abstraction, as developed on the two-dimensional format, in sculptural strategies and their insertion in the lived, everyday environment.The role of geometric formalism is expanded on in the chapters on minimal art, where I explore the …

A La Música: The Musical Abstract Paintings Of Kazuya Sakai, 1964-1979
… work stylistically within the context of Mexican geometric abstraction, lacking specific attention to compositions the paintings are titled after. This thesis explores the relationship between Sakai’s paintings and music, and how musical references in Sakai’s work corresponded with an evolution in …

Gestural minimalism : developing a pictorial model in light of Deleuzoguattarian and enactive theories
… engaging in this research, was only based on geometric abstraction and, which I considered was too static and representational. Consequently, a principal practical outcome of this project is a hybrid pictorial style – between static and dynamic approaches – that I call gestural minimalism. I …

Lotte Reiniger and the Animated Ornament in Experimental Film
… of ornament (as both decorative silhouette and geometric abstraction) has been largely neglected in both film studies and art history. Drawing on Alois Riegl’s theory of ornament, this dissertation explores key moments in Reiniger’s practice that deploy qualities such as tactility, …

The International Rise of Afro-Brazilian Modernism in the Age of African Decolonization and Black Power
… religious symbolism coalesced with geometric abstraction as well as Pop art, which were developing simultaneously in Brazil and elsewhere. Such imagery thus served to represent Brazilian modernism within a divisive political milieu, suggesting either the absence or presence of racism …

Accelerating Distributed Deep Neural Network Training and Fine-Tuning Through Resource Interleaving
… for ML clusters. Cassini introduces a novel geometric abstraction to consider the communication pattern of different jobs while placing them on network links. To do so, Cassini uses an Affinity graph that finds a series of time-shift values to adjust the communication phases of a subset of …

Codes of Interaction
<p>The ideas within this thesis are meant to clarify my explorations, research and painting practice during my studies at Virginia Commonwealth University. I expand on my general statements about being fascinated by advancing technologies and concerned about the after effects of these advancements. …
