The NAS Parallel Benchmarks (NPB) are well-known applications with fixed algorithms for evaluating parallel systems and tools. Multicore clusters provide a natural programming paradigm for hybrid programs, whereby OpenMP can be used with the data sharing with the multicores that comprise a node, and MPI can be used with the communication between nodes. In this paper, we use Scalar Pentadiagonal (SP) and Block Tridiagonal (BT) benchmarks of MPI NPB 3.3 as a basis for a comparative approach to implement hybrid MPI/OpenMP versions of SP and BT
Detecting motion-based video change, such as different types of motion video or applications using different change detection algorithms in a Web system, is difficult. This paper designs and implements architecture for a real-time or near real-time on-demand motion video change detection system using the Sensor Observation Service (SOS) and the Web Processing Service (WPS) in the Sensor Web environment. Real-time or near real-time includes sensors that obtain motion video data, SOS provides motion video data to WPS and WPS processes this data.
Ubiquitous smart environments equipped with low-cost and easily-deployable wireless sensor networks (WSNs) and ever-increasing widespread Mobile Ad hoc NETworks (MANETs) are opening brand new opportunities in environmental monitoring. This paper proposes an original solution for WSN/MANET integration based on the primary design guideline of opportunistically exploiting MANET overlays impromptu formed over the WSN to improve and boost the data collection task of a typical WSN
It is a known phenomenon that in a wireless sensor network, sensors communicating directly with a sink deplete their energy faster than the others. As a result, the so-called neighboring sensors can die, disconnecting some of the sinks from the rest of the network, even though most of the sensors are still fully functional. One possible remedy is to balance the relaying load of the sensors using mobile sinks and controlling their mobility, which has attracted the interest of researchers
Wondering why you only have 2 GB of space left on your iPad or iPhone? Is it too much music, too many videos, too many apps, or something else? You would be surprised at how quickly the data can be eaten up on your iPhone or iPad, especially the latter because of the heavier apps.
