Cluster Hybrid Monte Carlo Simulation Algorithms
We show that addition of Metropolis single spin-flips to the Wolff cluster
flipping Monte Carlo procedure leads to a dramatic {\bf increase} in
performance for the spin-1/2 Ising model. We also show that adding Wolff
cluster flipping to the Metropolis or heat bath algorithms in systems where
just cluster flipping is not immediately obvious (such as the spin-3/2 Ising
model) can substantially {\bf reduce} the statistical errors of the
simulations. A further advantage of these methods is that systematic errors
introduced by the use of imperfect random number generation may be largely
healed by hybridizing single spin-flips with cluster flipping.Comment: 16 pages, 10 figure
MIRAI Architecture for Heterogeneous Network
One of the keywords that describe next-generation wireless communications is "seamless." As part of the e-Japan Plan promoted by the Japanese Government, the Multimedia Integrated Network by Radio Access Innovation project has as its goal the development of new technologies to enable seamless integration of various wireless access systems for practical use by 2005. This article describes a heterogeneous network architecture including a common tool, a common platform, and a common access. In particular, software-defined radio technologies are used to develop a multiservice user terminal to access different wireless networks. The common platform for various wireless networks is based on a wireless-supporting IPv6 network. A basic access network, separated from other wireless access networks, is used as a means for wireless system discovery, signaling, and paging. A proof-of-concept experimental demonstration system is available
Fourth order real space solver for the time-dependent Schr\"odinger equation with singular Coulomb potential
We present a novel numerical method and algorithm for the solution of the 3D
axially symmetric time-dependent Schr\"odinger equation in cylindrical
coordinates, involving singular Coulomb potential terms besides a smooth
time-dependent potential. We use fourth order finite difference real space
discretization, with special formulae for the arising Neumann and Robin
boundary conditions along the symmetry axis. Our propagation algorithm is based
on merging the method of the split-operator approximation of the exponential
operator with the implicit equations of second order cylindrical 2D
Crank-Nicolson scheme. We call this method hybrid splitting scheme because it
inherits both the speed of the split step finite difference schemes and the
robustness of the full Crank-Nicolson scheme. Based on a thorough error
analysis, we verified both the fourth order accuracy of the spatial
discretization in the optimal spatial step size range, and the fourth order
scaling with the time step in the case of proper high order expressions of the
split-operator. We demonstrate the performance and high accuracy of our hybrid
splitting scheme by simulating optical tunneling from a hydrogen atom due to a
few-cycle laser pulse with linear polarization
CONDOR: A Hybrid IDS to Offer Improved Intrusion Detection
Intrusion Detection Systems are an accepted and very
useful option to monitor, and detect malicious activities.
However, Intrusion Detection Systems have inherent limitations which lead to false positives and false negatives; we propose that combining signature and anomaly based IDSs should be examined. This paper contrasts signature and anomaly-based IDSs, and critiques some proposals about hybrid IDSs with signature and heuristic capabilities, before considering some of their contributions in order to include them as main features of a new hybrid IDS named CONDOR (COmbined Network intrusion Detection ORientate), which is designed to offer superior pattern analysis and anomaly detection by reducing false positive rates and administrator intervention
Status and Future Perspectives for Lattice Gauge Theory Calculations to the Exascale and Beyond
In this and a set of companion whitepapers, the USQCD Collaboration lays out
a program of science and computing for lattice gauge theory. These whitepapers
describe how calculation using lattice QCD (and other gauge theories) can aid
the interpretation of ongoing and upcoming experiments in particle and nuclear
physics, as well as inspire new ones.Comment: 44 pages. 1 of USQCD whitepapers
