Memory limitations in sentence comprehension
… structures can be represented in working memory. We propose a memory-based computational model that derives offline and online complexity profiles in terms of a top-down parser for minimalist grammars (Stabler, 2011). The complexity metric reflects the amount of time an item is stored in …

Multiscale Simulation and Optimization of Copper Electrodeposition
… not be addressed by a single processor due to memory limitations.

Trait inattention and goal representations.
… shown to be related to impairments in working memory, particularly those functions related to goal maintenance. In six studies, the link between trait inattention and working memory limitations was investigated with the aim of differentiating inattention from hyperactivity and impulsivity, …

Massively parallel algorithms for method of characteristics neutral particle transport on shared memory computer architectures
… has risen to unsustainable levels and memory limitations have come to dominate compute performance. Multi-core processors and heterogeneous computing platforms, such as Graphics Processing Units (GPUs), are an increasingly popular paradigm for resolving these issues. This thesis …

Automatic translation of CUDA to OpenCL and comparison of performance optimizations on GPUS
… unit, register file organization, on-chip memory limitations, DRAM coalescing patterns and floating point unit throughput of the two devices interact with each optimization differently.

An investigation of syntax, semantics, and rhetoric in the English writing of fifteen Thai graduate students
… of rule restrictions, cultural thought patterns, memory limitations, and other affective variables. Most of the Thai students in this study admitted that English rhetorical style was never known to them prior to their coming to the United States, so they wrote according to what they thought was …

Problems With Auditory Alarms in Anesthesia and Tests of a Proposed Solution: Multimodal Multitask Performance With an Auditory Display
… alarms, workload, monitored-parameter bandwidth, memory limitations, information-access cost, control-actions taken, correlations among parameters, and task relevance. To test the model in the field, alarm thresholds (sensitivity levels) were manipulated on patient monitoring devices, and the …

Software defined networking based resource management and quality of service support in wireless sensor network applications
… since these technologies have a lot of computing limitations. It is even difficult to manage networking resources with ease in these types of technologies, due to their communication, processing and memory limitations. Even though this is the case with WSNs, they have been largely used in …

Thread Scheduling For Chip Multiprocessors
… increasing numbers of cores, due to off-chip memory limitations and increased contention among threads. Increasing static and off-chip system power consumption can also mask which concurrency level (number of threads) is the most energy efficient for multithreaded programs. Operating system …

Parallel fluid dynamics for the film and animation industries
… used. This overcomes the processing power and memory limitations of a single computer and allows very large scenes to be created. One of the newer methods for fluid simulation is the Lattice Boltzmann Method (LBM). This is a cellular automata type of algorithm, which parallelizes easily. An …

Analysis Strategies for Configurable Systems
… family-based strategy typically needs much main memory). The goal of this thesis is to enable the efficient analysis of configuable systems, even if existing strategies fail (e.g., the family-based strategy, because of memory limitations). To this end, we designed a framework that models the key …

The Cognitive Underpinnings of Legal Complexity
… legal content result largely from working-memory limitations imposed by long-distance syntactic dependencies as opposed to a mere lack of specialized legal knowledge. Chapter III extends these results to other legal genres and investigates the cognitive and linguistic profile of law over …

Piezohydraulic Actuator Design and Modeling Using a Lumped-Parameter Approach
… 120 Hz and under loads at or below 12.825 kg. Memory limitations caused the number of elements included in the lumped-parameter model to be limited, and are believed to be the source of the errors for the higher operation frequencies and loads. The model never converged due to the lack of …

Change Detection In Rhesus Monkeys and Humans
<p>Visual working memory (VWM) is the temporary retention of visual information and a key component of cognitive processing. The classical paradigm for studying VWM and its encoding limitations has been change detection. Early work focused on how many items could be stored in VWM, leading to the …

Multidisciplinary Optimization and Damage Tolerance of Stiffened Structures
… the CPU time. The license cycle-check method and memory self-adjustment method are two approaches that have been applied in the parallel framework in order to optimize the use of the resources by reducing the license and memory limitations and making the code robust. The integrated global-local …

Discrete Two-Stage Stochastic Mixed-Integer Programs with Applications to Airline Fleet Assignment and Workforce Planning Problems
… this software failed to produce solutions due to memory limitations, while the proposed Benders' decomposition-based solution approach consistently solved all the practical-sized test problems with reasonable effort. To summarize, this dissertation provides a significant advancement in the …
