Proton beam radiotherapy is a cancer treatment method that uses proton beams to irradiate cancerous tissue while simultaneously sparing doses to healthy tissue. In order to optimize radiational doses to the tumor and ensure that healthy tissue is spared, many researchers have suggested verifying the treatment delivery through real‐time imaging. One promising method of real‐time imaging is through...
State‐of‐the‐art distributed‐memory computer clusters contain multicore CPUs with 16 and more cores. The second generation of the Intel Xeon Phi many‐core processor has more than 60 cores with 16 GB of high‐performance on‐chip memory. We contrast the performance of the second‐generation Intel Xeon Phi, code‐named Knights Landing (KNL), with 68 computational cores to the latest multicore CPU Intel...
A daily precipitation generator based on a hidden Markov model with Gaussian copulas (HMM‐GC) is constructed using remote sensing data from GPM‐IMERG for the Potomac river basin on the East Coast of the USA. Daily precipitation over the basin from 2001–2018 for the wet season months of July to September is modeled using a 4‐state HMM, and correlated precipitation amounts are generated from a mixture...
We have developed streaming implementations of two numerical linear algebra operations that further exploit the block decomposition strategies commonly used in these operations to obtain performance. The implementations formulate algorithms as data flow graphs and use coarse‐grained parallelism to (1) emit a block in the result matrix as soon as it becomes available and (2) compute on multiple blocks...
