Among the simulation software packages in popular use today, there is no entirely satisfactory algorithm to compute the contact impacts with friction, and unbiased comparison and physical validation remain rare. Users with ...

This thesis has four specific contributions to parallel discrete-event simulation. First, we demonstrate the efficacy of ultra large-scale wireless networking simulations utilizing the OLSR protocol on HPC platforms. ...

This thesis presents a series of orthogonal memory system design techniques that leverage the characteristics of various applications to optimize memory fault tolerance in highly scaled memory technologies. This thesis ...

Mesh adaptation is a technique which dynamically modifies the mesh being used to approximately solve a Partial Differential Equation (PDE) in order to improve aspects of the approximate solution including the computer time ...

In this work, we consider dynamics and uncertainty of the pose of the object during grasp analysis of Atlas robot simulated in Gazebo. Considering dynamics is crucial during grasping process in dynamic environment as well ...

Simulation is a key step in designing complex integrated circuits, such as processors. In recent years, chip complexity has increased to the point that sequential simulation tools are no longer adequate. Many commercial ...

Finally, we developed 3D-EPUG-Overlay, an algorithm for exactly computing the intersection of pairs of 3D meshes. 3D-EPUG-Overlay employs all the techniques mentioned above to ensure its correctness and efficiency. Experiments ...

The cumulative work presented here shows an end-to-end spike-accurate neuromorphic hardware simulation system. This system is massively scalable, high performance, and able to provide performance metrics, virtual network ...

Network science is a discipline within the larger area of computer science that studies complex networks using the methodologies of graph theory, statistical analysis, and data visualization. As more and more data are made ...
