Geometry, topology and dynamics of geodesic flows on noncompact polygonal surfaces
We establish the background for the study of geodesics on noncompact
polygonal surfaces. For illustration, we study the recurrence of geodesics on
-periodic polygonal surfaces. We prove, in particular, that almost all
geodesics on a topologically typical -periodic surface with boundary are
recurrent.Comment: 34 pages, 13 figures. To be published in V. V. Kozlov's Festschrif
Recurrence in generic staircases
The straight-line flow on almost every staircase and on almost every square
tiled staircase is recurrent. For almost every square tiled staircase the set
of periodic orbits is dense in the phase space
APEnet+: high bandwidth 3D torus direct network for petaflops scale commodity clusters
We describe herein the APElink+ board, a PCIe interconnect adapter featuring
the latest advances in wire speed and interface technology plus hardware
support for a RDMA programming model and experimental acceleration of GPU
networking; this design allows us to build a low latency, high bandwidth PC
cluster, the APEnet+ network, the new generation of our cost-effective,
tens-of-thousands-scalable cluster network architecture. Some test results and
characterization of data transmission of a complete testbench, based on a
commercial development card mounting an Altera FPGA, are provided.Comment: 6 pages, 7 figures, proceeding of CHEP 2010, Taiwan, October 18-2
