New tools are needed to enable rapid detection, identification, and reporting of infectious viral and microbial pathogens in a wide variety of point-of-care applications that impact human and animal health. We report the design, construction, and characterization of a platform for multiplexed analysis of disease-specific DNA sequences that utilizes a smartphone camera as the sensor in conjunction...
Modern parallel processing machines are becoming more scalable through advances in network technology. It is now important to have a scalable computational model to support the design and analysis of algorithms. This paper describes a practical implementation of the WPRAM model, which has been used at Leeds for a number of years. The distinctive features of the WPRAM are the use of a weakly coherent...
This paper describes a strategy for the structuring and analysis of parallel code, using shared abstract data types (SADTs). SADTs are used to provide scalability, and support for modular and portable code development. An example of their usage is presented for a dynamic load balancing method. A framework for performance analysis is described, using an extension of the bulk synchronous parallelism...
The widespread use of parallel hardware is partly held back by the lack of a unifying model of parallel computation with predictable performance. Valiant's Bulk Synchronous Parallel (BSP) model has been proposed as one candidate to fill this gap [2] on a general class of distributed memory MIMD machines. A practical demonstration of this approach has been shown by May [1]. We build on Valiant's work...
Driven by the need for a more anatomically realistic ventricular model and with access to greater computational power the Auckland porcine ventricular model has been re-engineered based on the original anatomical recordings. The model retains an accurate representation of the ventricular geometry including the apex and valve rings and also the underlying tissue microstructure. A computational modeling...
