This technique is mainly used for single node with multi-core processor, which is different from those based on cluster or network computing architecture. Due to its specific applications (such as medical image processing) and the harsh terms of hardware resource requirement, the CBIR system has been prevented from being widely used. With the increasing volume of the image database, the widespread use of multi-core processors, and the requirement of the retrieval accuracy and speed, we need to achieve a retrieval strategy which is based on multi-core processor to make the retrieval faster and more convenient than before. Experimental results demonstrate that this parallel architecture can significantly improve the performance of retrieval system. In addition, we also propose an efficient parallel technique with the combinations of the cluster and the multi-core techniques, which is supposed to gear to the new trend of the cloud computing.展开更多

摘要Although supplying extensive design space,the curse of dimensionality restricts the widespread application of largescale topology optimization in practical engineering.Various acceleration techniques have been integrated with topology optimization,achieving significant attention and progress in large-scale problems.This work aims to investigate how much benefit can be obtained by combining parallel computing and machine learning techniques to enhance the efficiency of large-scale topology optimization algorithms.Accordingly,a parallel problem independent machine learning(PIML)-enhanced topology optimization method is proposed.The PIML model substantially reduces the dimension of the condensed stiffness matrix and its computational cost,and parallel computing reduces the workload per process and enables the application of a parallel multigrid solver.Besides,several techniques,such as matrix-free implementation,direct condensation of uniform coarse elements,and adjusting computational resource limits,have been developed to enhance computational efficiency.The weak scaling efficiency,strong scaling speedup,and maximum achievable efficiency of the proposed method are validated across multiple numerical examples,showing significant improvement in the tractable problem size and solution efficiency compared to traditional topology optimization algorithms.

摘要Parallel machining robot is a new type of robotized equipment for high-efficiency machining structural com-ponents with complex geometries.Terminal rigidity is of great importance index for such type of equipment,which affects their load capacity and working accuracy.Before a parallel machining robot can be used for heavy-load and high-efficiency machining,its terminal rigidity should be evaluated systematically.The present study is to quantitatively reveal the stiffness properties of a previously invented Z4 redundantly actuated parallel ma-chining robot(RAPMR).For this purpose,two critical issues,i.e.,stiffness modelling and index construction,are clarified to carry out stiffness evaluation of the Z4 RAPMR.Firstly,drawing on the screw theory,a semi-analytic stiffness model of the proposed RAPMR is established at a component level.Secondly,a set of virtual work-based stiffness indices is constructed to evaluate the terminal rigidity of parallel robots.Those indices have a consistent physical unit in describing linear and angular terminal rigidity.With these indices,the local and the global stiffness performance of the Z4 RAPMR are predicted.Thirdly,a laboratory prototype of the proposed RAPMR is fabricated.And the experimental test is performed to verify the correctness of the established stiffness model.The present work is expected to provide fundamental information for further light-weight design and rigidity enhancement.

摘要In order to improve the concurrent access performance of the web-based spatial computing system in cluster,a parallel scheduling strategy based on the multi-core environment is proposed,which includes two levels of parallel processing mechanisms.One is that it can evenly allocate tasks to each server node in the cluster and the other is that it can implement the load balancing inside a server node.Based on the strategy,a new web-based spatial computing model is designed in this paper,in which,a task response ratio calculation method,a request queue buffer mechanism and a thread scheduling strategy are focused on.Experimental results show that the new model can fully use the multi-core computing advantage of each server node in the concurrent access environment and improve the average hits per second,average I/O Hits,CPU utilization and throughput.Using speed-up ratio to analyze the traditional model and the new one,the result shows that the new model has the best performance.The performance of the multi-core server nodes in the cluster is optimized;the resource utilization and the parallel processing capabilities are enhanced.The more CPU cores you have,the higher parallel processing capabilities will be obtained.

摘要Sub-Kelvin cooling technology is a critical prerequisite for high-sensitivity detection in deep space exploration and quantum computing.Operating identical sorption coolers in parallel is a common engineering approach to enhance cooling capacity and extend hold time for these cryogenic platforms.However,this study reports an unexpected"symmetry breaking"phenomenon observed in a parallel Helium-4 sorption cooling system where the cold heads are connected via Oxygen-Free High Thermal Conductivity(OFHC)copper linkages.Instead of the expected uniform load sharing,the system spontaneously evolves into an asymmetric"quasi-series"operational mode.In this state,one cooler preferentially consumes its liquid helium inventory while the other remains dormant,significantly reducing system efficiency.To elucidate the underlying physics,a transient thermal-fluidic resistance network model was developed and validated against experimental data obtained from a dual-cooler test rig pre-cooled by a G-M cryocooler.Theoretical analysis reveals that this thermal locking originates from a positive feedback loop driven by the temperature-dependent thermal conductivity of the copper straps.Experimental results further demonstrate that system stability degrades significantly with increasing thermal load,with the synchronization ratio dropping from 75.3%at 0 mW to 51.3%at 3 mW.This indicates that at higher temperatures,the destabilizing gain of the thermal link overwhelms the restoring stiffness of the sorption mechanism.To address this intrinsic instability,a passive suppression strategy using a series"Ballast Thermal Resistance"is proposed.Numerical optimization identifies a critical resistance value of approximately 10 K/W,which effectively dampens the positive feedback and restores the synchronization ratio to over 95%with a negligible thermal penalty of less than 20 mK.These findings provide a theoretical basis and practical design guidelines for the stabilization of multi-cooler cryogenic networks.

摘要Effective partitioning is crucial for enabling parallel restoration of power systems after blackouts.This paper proposes a novel partitioning method based on deep reinforcement learning.First,the partitioning decision process is formulated as a Markov decision process(MDP)model to maximize the modularity.Corresponding key partitioning constraints on parallel restoration are considered.Second,based on the partitioning objective and constraints,the reward function of the partitioning MDP model is set by adopting a relative deviation normalization scheme to reduce mutual interference between the reward and penalty in the reward function.The soft bonus scaling mechanism is introduced to mitigate overestimation caused by abrupt jumps in the reward.Then,the deep Q network method is applied to solve the partitioning MDP model and generate partitioning schemes.Two experience replay buffers are employed to speed up the training process of the method.Finally,case studies on the IEEE 39-bus test system demonstrate that the proposed method can generate a high-modularity partitioning result that meets all key partitioning constraints,thereby improving the parallelism and reliability of the restoration process.Moreover,simulation results demonstrate that an appropriate discount factor is crucial for ensuring both the convergence speed and the stability of the partitioning training.
摘要The Animated Oat Optimization Algorithm(AOO)is a novel evolutionary algorithm inspired by the behavior of animated oats.This paper proposes a Competitive Parallel Animated Oat Optimization Algorithm(CPAOO)comprising two components.First,a parallel strategy is employed in which inter-subpopulation communication is triggered at predefined iteration thresholds to balance exploration and exploitation.Second,a grouped competition strategy with incentive mechanisms is introduced,enabling the prioritized evolution of superior individuals to enhance the algorithm’s efficiency.Furthermore,building on the Prediction Error Expansion(PEE)algorithm,this paper proposes a Dual-Layer PEE(DLPEE)algorithm for reversible digital watermarking.Based on differences in pixel values around embedding points,image blocks are classified as either smooth or textured regions.The CPAOO algorithm is used to optimize the weights of the pixel predictor and to prioritize embedding secret information in smooth blocks.This approach enhances both the embedding capacity and the invisibility of the watermarked data.Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed methods achieve satisfactory performance.
摘要Naturally degradable capsule provides a platform for sustained fragrance release.However,practical challenges such as low encapsulation efficiency and difficulty in sustained release are still limited in using fragranceloaded capsules.In this work,the natural materials sodium alginate and gelatine are dissolved and act as the aqueous phase,lavender is dissolved in caprylic/capric triglyceride(GTCC)as the oil phase,and SiO2 nanoparticles with neutralwettability as a solid emulsifier to form O/W Pickering emulsions simultaneously.Finally,multi-core capsules are prepared using the drop injection method with emulsions as templates.The results show that the capsules have been successfully prepared with a spherical morphology and multi-core structure,and the encapsulation rate of multi-core capsules can reach up to 99.6%.In addition,the multi-core capsules possess desirable sustained release performance,the cumulative sustained release rate of fragrance at 25℃over 49 days is only 32.5%.It is attributed to the significant protection of multi-core structure,Pickering emulsion nanoparticle membranes,and hydrogel network shell for encapsulated fragrance.This study is designed to deliver a new strategy for using sustained-release technology with fragrance in food,cosmetics,textiles,and other fields.

摘要This paper presents an Eulerian-Lagrangian algorithm for direct numerical simulation(DNS)of particle-laden flows.The algorithm is applicable to perform simulations of dilute suspensions of small inertial particles in turbulent carrier flow.The Eulerian framework numerically resolves turbulent carrier flow using a parallelized,finite-volume DNS solver on a staggered Cartesian grid.Particles are tracked using a point-particle method utilizing a Lagrangian particle tracking(LPT)algorithm.The proposed Eulerian-Lagrangian algorithm is validated using an inertial particle-laden turbulent channel flow for different Stokes number cases.The particle concentration profiles and higher-order statistics of the carrier and dispersed phases agree well with the benchmark results.We investigated the effect of fluid velocity interpolation and numerical integration schemes of particle tracking algorithms on particle dispersion statistics.The suitability of fluid velocity interpolation schemes for predicting the particle dispersion statistics is discussed in the framework of the particle tracking algorithm coupled to the finite-volume solver.In addition,we present parallelization strategies implemented in the algorithm and evaluate their parallel performance.

摘要The accuracy of photovoltaic(PV)power prediction is significantly influenced by meteorological and environmental factors.To enhance ultra-short-term forecasting precision,this paper proposes an interpretable feedback prediction method based on a parallel dual-stream Temporal Convolutional Network-Bidirectional Long Short-Term Memory(TCN-BiLSTM)architecture incorporating a spatiotemporal attention mechanism.Firstly,during data preprocessing,the optimal historical time window is determined through autocorrelation analysis while highly correlated features are selected as model inputs using Pearson correlation coefficients.Subsequently,a parallel dual-stream TCN-BiLSTM model is constructed where the TCN branch extracts localized transient features and the BiLSTM branch captures long-term periodic patterns,with spatiotemporal attention dynamically weighting spatiotemporal dependencies.Finally,Shapley Additive explanations(SHAP)additive analysis quantifies feature contribution rates and provides optimization feedback to the model.Validation using operational data from a PV power station in Northeast China demonstrates that compared to conventional deep learning models,the proposed method achieves a 17.6%reduction in root mean square error(RMSE),a 5.4%decrease in training time consumption,and a 4.78%improvement in continuous ranked probability score(CRPS),exhibiting significant advantages in both prediction accuracy and generalization capability.This approach enhances the application effectiveness of ultra-short-term PV power forecasting while simultaneously improving prediction accuracy and computational efficiency.

摘要Peridynamics(PD)demonstrates unique advantages in addressing fracture problems,however,its nonlocality and meshfree discretization result in high computational and storage costs.Moreover,in its engineering applications,the computational scale of classical GPU parallel schemes is often limited by the finite graphics memory of GPU devices.In the present study,we develop an efficient particle information management strategy based on the cell-linked list method and on this basis propose a subdomain-based GPU parallel scheme,which exhibits outstanding acceleration performance in specific compute kernels while significantly reducing graphics memory usage.Compared to the classical parallel scheme,the cell-linked list method facilitates efficient management of particle information within subdomains,enabling the proposed parallel scheme to effectively reduce graphics memory usage by optimizing the size and number of subdomains while significantly improving the speed of neighbor search.As demonstrated in PD examples,the proposed parallel scheme enhances the neighbor search efficiency dramatically and achieves a significant speedup relative to serial programs.For instance,without considering the time of data transmission,the proposed scheme achieves a remarkable speedup of nearly 1076.8×in one test case,due to its excellent computational efficiency in the neighbor search.Additionally,for 2D and 3D PD models with tens of millions of particles,the graphics memory usage can be reduced up to 83.6%and 85.9%,respectively.Therefore,this subdomain-based GPU parallel scheme effectively avoids graphics memory shortages while significantly improving the computational efficiency,providing new insights into studying more complex large-scale problems.

摘要In this paper, we propose a parallel computing technique for content-based image retrieval (CBIR) system. This technique is mainly used for single node with multi-core processor, which is different from those based on cluster or network computing architecture. Due to its specific applications (such as medical image processing) and the harsh terms of hardware resource requirement, the CBIR system has been prevented from being widely used. With the increasing volume of the image database, the widespread use of multi-core processors, and the requirement of the retrieval accuracy and speed, we need to achieve a retrieval strategy which is based on multi-core processor to make the retrieval faster and more convenient than before. Experimental results demonstrate that this parallel architecture can significantly improve the performance of retrieval system. In addition, we also propose an efficient parallel technique with the combinations of the cluster and the multi-core techniques, which is supposed to gear to the new trend of the cloud computing.
