Complex Langevin: Boundary terms and application to QCD
We employ the Complex Langevin method for simulation of complex-valued
actions. First, we show how to test for convergence of the method by
explicitely computing boundary terms and demonstrate this in a model. Then we
investigate the deconfinement phase transition of QCD with
Wilson-fermions using the Complex Langevin Method and. We give preliminary
results for the transition temperatures up to and
compute the curvature coefficient .Comment: Proceedings for The 36th Annual International Symposium on Lattice

Simulating quantum field theory with a quantum computer
Forthcoming exascale digital computers will further advance our knowledge of
quantum chromodynamics, but formidable challenges will remain. In particular,
Euclidean Monte Carlo methods are not well suited for studying real-time
evolution in hadronic collisions, or the properties of hadronic matter at
nonzero temperature and chemical potential. Digital computers may never be able
to achieve accurate simulations of such phenomena in QCD and other
strongly-coupled field theories; quantum computers will do so eventually,
though I'm not sure when. Progress toward quantum simulation of quantum field
theory will require the collaborative efforts of quantumists and field
theorists, and though the physics payoff may still be far away, it's worthwhile
to get started now. Today's research can hasten the arrival of a new era in
which quantum simulation fuels rapid progress in fundamental physics.Comment: 22 pages, The 36th Annual International Symposium on Lattice Field

Meeting Report of the Third Annual Tri-Service Microbiome Consortium Symposium
The Tri-Service Microbiome Consortium (TSMC) was founded to enhance collaboration, coordination, and communication of microbiome research among U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) organizations and to facilitate resource, material and information sharing among consortium members. The 2019 annual symposium was held 22–24 October 2019 at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base in Dayton, OH. Presentations and discussions centered on microbiome-related topics within five broad thematic areas: 1) human microbiomes; 2) transitioning products into Warfighter solutions; 3) environmental microbiomes; 4) engineering microbiomes; and 5) microbiome simulation and characterization. Collectively, the symposium provided an update on the scope of current DoD microbiome research efforts, highlighted innovative research being done in academia and industry that can be leveraged by the DoD, and fostered collaborative opportunities. This report summarizes the presentations and outcomes of the 3rd annual TSMC symposium

A virtual dual-level reconfigurable additive manufacturing system for digital object fabrication
This paper proposes a virtual dual-level reconfigurable additive manufacturing system (DRAMS) for simulation and verification of deposition strategies in digital fabrication of product prototypes. The DRAMS is aimed to improve additive manufacturing (AM) processes with the concept of system reconfiguration. It consists of adaptable support and manipulation modules for deposition of fabrication materials. Topologies are investigated to determine the structures of these modules, and methods are developed to evaluate and optimize the system configuration. Simulations show that the DRAMS can not only handle prototypes of different sizes and fabrication materials, but also increase the process speed. The DRAMS offers an effective tool for simulation, verification and optimization of deposition strategies under different system configurations to improve process performance.postprintThe 21st Annual International Solid Freeform Fabrication (SFF) Symposium: An Additive Manufacturing Conference, Austin, TX., 9-11 August 2010.

Optimized Surface Code Communication in Superconducting Quantum Computers
Quantum computing (QC) is at the cusp of a revolution. Machines with 100
quantum bits (qubits) are anticipated to be operational by 2020
[googlemachine,gambetta2015building], and several-hundred-qubit machines are
around the corner. Machines of this scale have the capacity to demonstrate
quantum supremacy, the tipping point where QC is faster than the fastest
classical alternative for a particular problem. Because error correction
techniques will be central to QC and will be the most expensive component of
quantum computation, choosing the lowest-overhead error correction scheme is
critical to overall QC success. This paper evaluates two established quantum
error correction codes---planar and double-defect surface codes---using a set
of compilation, scheduling and network simulation tools. In considering
scalable methods for optimizing both codes, we do so in the context of a full
microarchitectural and compiler analysis. Contrary to previous predictions, we
find that the simpler planar codes are sometimes more favorable for
implementation on superconducting quantum computers, especially under
conditions of high communication congestion.Comment: 14 pages, 9 figures, The 50th Annual IEEE/ACM International Symposium

Proceedings, MSVSCC 2019
Old Dominion University Department of Modeling, Simulation & Visualization Engineering (MSVE) and the Virginia Modeling, Analysis and Simulation Center (VMASC) held the 13th annual Modeling, Simulation & Visualization (MSV) Student Capstone Conference on April 18, 2019.
The Conference featured student research and student projects that are central to MSV. Also participating in the conference were faculty members who volunteered their time to impart direct support to their students’ research, facilitated the various conference tracks, served as judges for each of the tracks, and provided overall assistance to the conference.
Appreciating the purpose of the conference and working in a cohesive, collaborative effort, resulted in a successful symposium for everyone involved. These proceedings feature the works that were presented at the conference.
