On-the-fly memory compression for multibody algorithms.
Memory and bandwidth demands challenge developers of particle-based codes that have to scale on new architectures, as the growth of concurrency outperforms improvements in memory access facilities, as the memory per core tends to stagnate, and as communication networks cannot increase bandwidth arbitrary. We propose to analyse each particle of such a code to find out whether a hierarchical data representation storing data with reduced precision caps the memory demands without exceeding given error bounds. For admissible candidates, we perform this compression and thus reduce the pressure on the memory subsystem, lower the total memory footprint and reduce the data to be exchanged via MPI. Notably, our analysis and transformation changes the data compression dynamically, i.e. the choice of data format follows the solution characteristics, and it does not require us to alter the core simulation code
Demonstration of a Thermally Coupled Row-Column SNSPD Imaging Array
While single-pixel superconducting nanowire single photon detectors (SNSPDs) have demonstrated remarkable efficiency and timing performance from the UV to near-IR, scaling these devices to large imaging arrays remains challenging. Here, we propose a new SNSPD multiplexing system using thermal coupling and detection correlations between two photosensitive layers of an array. Using this architecture with the channels of one layer oriented in rows and the second layer in columns, we demonstrate imaging capability in 16-pixel arrays with accurate spot tracking at the few-photon level. We also explore the performance trade-offs of orienting the top layer nanowires parallel and perpendicular to the bottom layer. The thermally coupled row-column scheme is readily able to scale to the kilopixel size with existing readout systems and, when combined with other multiplexing architectures, has the potential to enable megapixel scale SNSPD imaging arrays
Heat generation based on wood fuel as a basis for improving energy effi ciency in the timber industry
Теплогенерация на основе древесного топлива повышает энергоэффективность в лесопромышленном производстве. Древесное топливо является возобновимым и экологичным ресурсом и рассматривается как эффективная замена топливу из ископаемых ресурсов. Применение нормированных видов древесного топлива позволяет снизить затраты на теплогенерацию. Древесное топливо имеет самые низкие показатели выделения углекислого газа, а также отсутствие серы при сгорании, что обеспечивает экологичность применения данного вида топлива. Важными организационными мероприятиями по переходу на древесные виды топлива являются создание унифицированных муниципальных топливно-технологических терминалов, расширение производства топливной щепы при рубках ухода, а также экспорт избыточной топливной щепы. Эти мероприятия позволяют увеличить количество высокопроизводительных рабочих мест.Heat generation based on wood fuel increases energy effi ciency in the timber industry. Wood fuel is a renewable and environmentally friendly resource and is seen as an effective substitute for fossil fuels. The use of standardized types of wood fuel can reduce the cost of heat generation. Wood fuel has the lowest rates of carbon dioxide emissions, as well as the absence of sulfur during combustion, which ensures environmental friendliness of this type of fuel. Important organizational measures for the transition to wood fuels are the creation of unifi ed municipal fuel technology terminals, the expansion of the production of fuel chips during logging operations, as well as the export of excess fuel chips. These activities increase the number of high-performance jobs
Biomechanical study athletes’ movement techniques in the hurdles (on example of phase of flight)
Purpose: To design a theoretical biomechanical model of athletes’ movement techniques in the hurdles and then check there movements on real athletes. Material: In the practical part of the study participated 10 smortsmen. Results: Showing the possibility of constructing a theoretical model of hurdling technique. The basis of cons tructing a model using the known approaches in theoretical mechanics. Shows the calculated and actual performance movement of the athlete. Conclusions: The developed model provides a good theoretical understanding of the interactions of individual elements of movement and the ability to simulate different situations and to determine the optimal values of the kinematic and dynamic characteristics of the movement of the athlete. The model allows the individual elements of motion correction directly in the process of training. When analyzing art movement should consider specific features of physical development and anthropometric characteristics of the athlete's body

The use of SSR-markers in rice breeding for resistance to blast and submergence tolerance
Received: March 16th, 2022 ; Accepted: July 20th, 2022 ; Published: September 6th, 2022 ; Correspondence: [email protected] identification of effective specialized DNA markers providing the clear control of
target locus inheritance by the trait of submergence tolerance has been conducted. Among the
studied set of microsatellite markers, two the most informative SSR-markers - RM 7481, PrC3
showed high efficiency in detecting intraspecific polymorphism of rice varieties and lines used
in the work. With the use of these markers the clear genotype marking the obtained hybrid rice
plants by this trait has been conducted and it is has been verified by phenotype evaluation as a
result of laboratory trials. The plant samples carrying the target gene in heterozygous and
homozygous state has been selected. About 400 backcrossed self-pollinated rice lines with
introgressed and pyramided resistance genes Pi-1, Pi-2, Pi-33, Pi-ta, Pi-b to Pyricularia oryzae
Cav. were obtained within the frameworks of program to develop genetic rice sources resistant
to blast. The conducted testing for resistance to blast and the assessment by economically valuable
traits have allowed to select the prospective rice samples. The plant samples of F2 and BC1F1
generations with combination of resistance to blast genes (Pi) and submergence tolerance gene
(Sub1A) in homozygous and heterozygous state that is confirmed be the results of analysis of
their DNA have been obtained. The obtained hybrid plants are being tested in breeding nurseries
for a complex of economically valuable traits. The best plants will be selected and send to State
Variety Testing system. Their involving in rice industry will reduce the use of plant protection
chemicals against diseases and weeds, thereby increasing the ecology status of the rice industry
