Standard sparsity-based algorithms used in power system applications need to be restructured for efficient vectorization due to the extremely short vectors processed, Further, intrinsic architectural features of vector computers such as chaining and sectioning should also be exploited for utmost performance, This paper presents novel data storage schemes and vectorization algorithms that resolve the recurrence problem, exploit chaining and minimize the number of indirect element selections in the repeated solution of sparse linear system of equations widely encountered in various power system problems, The proposed schemes are also applied and experimented for the vectorization of power mismatch calculations arising in the solution phase of FDLF which involves typical repeated sparse power network computations. The relative performances of the proposed and existing vectorization schemes are evaluated, both theoretically and experimentally on IBM 3090/VF.

Deriving a dynamic programming algorithm for batch scheduling in the refinement calculus Aktuğ, İrem; Oğuztüzün, Mehmet Halit S.; Department of Computer Engineering (2003) Refinement Calculus is a formalization of stepwise program construction.In this approach a program is derived from its specification by applying refinement rules.The Refinement Calculator,developed at TUCS,Finland,provides tool support for the Refinement Calculus.This thesis presents a case study aiming to evaluate the applicability of the theory and the performance of the tool.The Refinement Calculator is used for deriving a dynamic progaramming algorithm for a single-machine batch scheduling problem.A qua...
Monte Carlo analysis of ridged waveguides with transformation media Ozgun, Ozlem; Kuzuoğlu, Mustafa (Wiley, 2013-07-01) A computational model is presented for Monte Carlo simulation of waveguides with ridges, by combining the principles of transformation electromagnetics and the finite methods (such as finite element or finite difference methods). The principle idea is to place a transformation medium around the ridge structure, so that a single and easy-to-generate mesh can be used for each realization of the Monte Carlo simulation. Hence, this approach leads to less computational resources. The technique is validated by me...
Excessive Memory Usage of the ELLPACK Sparse Matrix Storage Scheme throughout the Finite Element Computations Akinci, Gokay; YILMAZ, ASIM EGEMEN; Kuzuoğlu, Mustafa (2014-12-01) Sparse matrices are occasionally encountered during solution of various problems by means of numerical methods, particularly the finite element method ELLPACK sparse matrix storage scheme, one of the most widely used methods due to its implementation ease, is investigated in this study. The scheme uses excessive memory due to its definition. For the conventional finite element method, where the node elements are used, the excessive memory caused by redundant entries in the ELLPACK sparse matrix storage sche...
Disparity disambiguation by fusion of signal- and symbolic-level information Ralli, Jarno; Diaz, Javier; Kalkan, Sinan; Krueger, Norbert; Ros, Eduardo (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2012-01-01) We describe a method for resolving ambiguities in low-level disparity calculations in a stereo-vision scheme by using a recurrent mechanism that we call signal-symbol loop. Due to the local nature of low-level processing it is not always possible to estimate the correct disparity values produced at this level. Symbolic abstraction of the signal produces robust, high confidence, multimodal image features which can be used to interpret the scene more accurately and therefore disambiguate low-level interpretat...
A finite field framework for modeling, analysis and control of finite state automata Reger, Johann; Schmidt, Klaus Verner (Informa UK Limited, 2004-09-01) In this paper, we address the modeling, analysis and control of finite state automata, which represent a standard class of discrete event systems. As opposed to graph theoretical methods, we consider an algebraic framework that resides on the finite field F-2 which is defined on a set of two elements with the operations addition and multiplication, both carried out modulo 2. The key characteristic of the model is its functional completeness in the sense that it is capable of describing most of the finite st...
