Software for Explicitly Parallel Memory-Centric Processor Architecture

Advances in computer memory technology justify research towards new and different views on computer organization. This paper proposes a novel memory-centric computing architecture with the goal to merge memory and processing elements in order to provide better conditions for parallelization and performance. The paper introduces the architectural concepts and afterwards shows the design and implementation of a corresponding assembler and simulator.

Entwicklung einer benutzerfreundlichen Software zur Berechnung von Rundfunk-Sendeantennen

Die Abteilung Sendertechnik des Norddeutschen Rundfunks betreibt die Sender zur Versorgung der Rundfunknutzer und befasst sich unter anderem mit der Planung und Optimierung von Sendeantennen. Das Ziel dieser Bachelorarbeit war die Entwicklung einer Software, mit der Horizontaldiagramme von Antennen erstellt, angepasst und dokumentiert werden können. Dafür wurde eine vorhandene LabVIEW-Software in ihren Grundzügen übernommen, in eine neue, in Java entwickelte Programmumgebung übertragen und dort erweitert und optimiert. Die Arbeit dokumentiert die Grundlagen der Sendeantennenplanung und die programmiertechnischen Entwicklungsschritte bis hin zur fertiggestellten und funktionsfähigen Software. Im Speziellen geht sie dabei auf die Berechnung von Antennensystemen, die Erstellung von Horizontaldiagrammen sowie die objektorientierte Programmierung und die Erstellung von grafischen Benutzeroberflächen ein. Dabei werden die einzelnen Entwicklungsschritte dokumentiert und erläutert sowie die Validierung der Software beschrieben.

Macroecologia de carnívoros do Novo Mundo (Mammalia): envelopes de restrição e análise de padrões filogenéticos

The relationship between body size and geographic range was analyzed for 70 species of terrestrial Carnivora ("fissipeds") of the New World, after the control of phylogenetic patterns in the data using phylogenetic eigenvector regression. The analysis from EcoSim software showed that the variables are related as a triangular envelope. Phylogenetic patterns in data were detected by means of phylogenetic correlograms, and 200 simulations of the phenotypic evolution were also performed over the phylogeny. For body size, the simulations suggested a non-linear relationship for the evolution of this character along the phylogeny. For geographic range size, the correlogram showed no phylogenetic patterns. A phylogenetic eigenvector regression was performed on original data and on data simulated under Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process. Since both characters did not evolve under a simple Brownian motion process, the Type I errors should be around 10%, compatible with other methods to analyze correlated evolution. The significant correlation of the original data (r = 0.38; P < 0.05), as well as the triangular envelope, then indicate ecological and adaptive processes connecting the two variables, such as those proposed in minimum viable population models.
