A decision support environment for behavioral synthesis
We present a specification of a general environment for behavioral synthesis centered around the user/designer as the primary motivator for decisions in design development. At each stage of the design process, the user can perform transformations on the design description through graphical user interfaces. Quality measures, physical estimates, and design hints are given to the user at each stage
LEGaTO: first steps towards energy-efficient toolset for heterogeneous computing
LEGaTO is a three-year EU H2020 project which started in December 2017. The LEGaTO project will leverage task-based programming models to provide a software ecosystem for Made-in-Europe heterogeneous hardware composed of CPUs, GPUs, FPGAs and dataflow engines. The aim is to attain one order of magnitude energy savings from the edge to the converged cloud/HPC.Peer ReviewedPostprint (author's final draft
Preliminary study of kaonic deuterium X-rays by the SIDDHARTA experiment at DAFNE
The study of the KbarN system at very low energies plays a key role for the
understanding of the strong interaction between hadrons in the strangeness
sector. At the DAFNE electron-positron collider of Laboratori Nazionali di
Frascati we studied kaonic atoms with Z=1 and Z=2, taking advantage of the
low-energy charged kaons from Phi-mesons decaying nearly at rest. The SIDDHARTA
experiment used X-ray spectroscopy of the kaonic atoms to determine the
transition yields and the strong interaction induced shift and width of the
lowest experimentally accessible level (1s for H and D and 2p for He). Shift
and width are connected to the real and imaginary part of the scattering
length. To disentangle the isospin dependent scattering lengths of the
antikaon-nucleon interaction, measurements of Kp and of Kd are needed. We
report here on an exploratory deuterium measurement, from which a limit for the
yield of the K-series transitions was derived: Y(K_tot)<0.0143 and
Y(K_alpha)<0.0039 (CL 90%). Also, the upcoming SIDDHARTA-2 kaonic deuterium
experiment is introduced.Comment: Accepted by Nuclear Physics
