Today's low cost hardware developments allow for a parallelization of intensive computation processes over several selectable CPU cores by using Intel's OpenMP library. But if one applies this feature to a numerical simulation based on a boundary element method (BEM), there is still a huge bottle neck - the shared memory of such a system. So, if a low cost hardware should be effectively used for large BEM problems, a memory compression algorithm that is easily to be scheduled in parallel is of first choice. Within our new idea and development of the Hierarchical Block Wavelet Compression (HWC) which is based on IEEE's JPEG2000 standard for image compression, this bottle neck will be tackled in pure mathematically manners. Furthermore, its parallelization will be discussed and an optimal compression rate for a 3-D electrostatic BEM problem by a rather simple optimization algorithm will be presented.

Having in mind various implementations of methods for generating network topology [1], [2], [3], there is also a need for a wider mechanism determining receiving nodes in a network by geographical positioning, or one that would be related to link and node parameters. This will allow us to answer the question whether the way receiving nodes are distributed has any influence on the quality of multicast trees constructed by algorithms. The paper proposes methods that arrange group members in packet-switched networks. In the research we discuss the influence of the group arrangement method on the total cost of tree and the average cost of path in a tree for unconstrained routing algorithms for multicast connections. The methods for the receiving nodes distribution in the network have not been hitherto addressed and analyzed in literature.

An ultra-thin reconfigurable absorber concept based on metasurfaces is presented. First, an artificial magnetic conducting (AMC) metasurface absorber is examined that incorporates lumped resistors along with variable lumped capacitors, which allow its frequency response to be tuned. The parasitic effects introduced by the lumped capacitors are compensated by adding resistors whose values are determined using an optimization algorithm known as the covariance matrix adaptation evolutionary strategy (CMA-ES). Second, the feasibility of achieving broadband absorption using frequency selective surfaces (FSSs) comprised of square loops is examined. Such a structure offers greater tunability, and thus wideband absorption can be achieved. First, an absorber that utilizes an FSS comprised by two square loops along with lumped resistors is studied and its wideband absorption properties are demonstrated. Second, an absorber that incorporates a resistive frequency selective surface comprised by four square loops and a center patch is presented.

Genetic algorithm (GA) is one of optimization algorithm based on an idea for evolution of life. GA can be applied various combination optimization problem. This paper proposes a parallel processor for distributed genetic algorithm (DGA) with redundant binary number. Since a redundant binary number has redundancy, solution expression becomes variegated. For this reason, it is expected the algorithm easily find the optimized solution, and the error rates decrease. Since DGA is a parallel algorithm, the performance can be improved by using a specified parallel processor. The effectiveness of the proposed processor was confirmed by some simulations and experiments using FPGA circuit board.

Gains from Massive MIMO are crucially dependent on the availability of channel state information at the transmitter which is far too costly if it has to estimated directly. Hence, for a time division duplexing system, this is derived from the uplink channel estimates using the concept of channel reciprocity. However, while the propagation channel is reciprocal, the overall digital channel in the downlink also involves the radio frequency chain which is non-reciprocal. This calls for calibration of the uplink channel with reciprocity calibration parameters to derive the downlink channel estimates. Initial approaches towards estimation of the reciprocity calibration parameters [1, 2] were all based on least squares. An ML estimator and a CRB for the estimators was introduced in [3]. This paper presents a more elegant and accurate CRB expression for a general reciprocity calibration framework. An optimal algorithm based on Variational Bayes is presented and it is compared with existing algorithms.

Dense local trajectories have been successfully used in action recognition. However, for most actions only a few local motion features (e.g., critical movement of hand, arm, leg etc.) are responsible for the action label. Therefore, highlighting the local features which are associated with important motion parts will lead to a more discriminative action representation. Inspired by recent advances in sentence regularization for text classification, we introduce a Motion Part Regularization framework to mine for discriminative groups of dense trajectories which form important motion parts. First, motion part candidates are generated by spatio-temporal grouping of densely extracted trajectories. Second, an objective function which encourages sparse selection for these trajectory groups is formulated together with an action class discriminative term. Then, we propose an alternative optimization algorithm to efficiently solve this objective function by introducing a set of auxiliary variables which correspond to the discriminativeness weights of each motion part (trajectory group). These learned motion part weights are further utilized to form a discriminativeness weighted Fisher vector representation for each action sample for final classification. The proposed motion part regularization framework achieves the state-of-the-art performances on several action recognition benchmarks.

In this paper, we describe the challenges involved in designing a family of highly-efficient Breadth-First Search (BFS) algorithms and in optimizing these algorithms on the latest two generations of Blue Gene machines, Blue Gene/P and Blue Gene/Q. With our recent winning Graph 500 submissions in November 2010, June 2011, and November 2011, we have achieved unprecedented scalability results in both space and size. On Blue Gene/P, we have been able to parallelize a scale 38 problem with 2~(38) vertices and 2~(42) edges on 131,072 processing cores. Using only four racks of an experimental configuration of Blue Gene/Q, we have achieved a processing rate of 254 billion edges per second on 65,536 processing cores. This paper describes the algorithmic design and the main classes of optimizations that we have used to achieve these results.
