Increasing the number of cores is one of the most effective methods to enhance performance. However, an extensive experimental study on mobile edge computing (e.g., Android devices) indicates that the memory management system has gradually become a key performance bottleneck. Studies on improving memory management mainly focus on exploring the trade-off between avoiding fragmentation and improving allocation efficiency. From our previous research, we know that the fragmentation is no longer a crucial bottleneck;instead, inter- and intra-thread behavior should be focused on, and thus, we introduce memory management based on thread behaviors (MMBTB). Unfortunately, it lacks a unified optimization program interface and good architecture. Consequently, in this paper, we propose a memory resource management at operating system (OS) layer of mobile edge computing, called the thread-oriented memory management layer (TOMML) to address this problem, which follows the microkernel architecture pattern and can meet the user's requirements for selecting plug-ins to achieve different optimization goals. This paper is divided into several sections as follows. First, we demonstrate the efficiency of TOMML through theoretical simulation and experimentation. The experimental result is that TOMML can improve memory allocation efficiency by 12%-20%. Furthermore, we introduce a plug-in to save power, which can further promote 6%-25% bank free compared with previous excellent research.

The Burrows-Wheeler transform (BWT) is a well studied text transformation widely used in data compression and text indexing. The BWT of two strings can also provide similarity measures between them, based on the observation that the more their symbols are intermixed in the transformation, the more the strings are similar. In this article we present two new algorithms to compute similarity measures based on the BWT for string collections. In particular, we present practical and theoretical improvements to the computation of the Burrows-Wheeler Similarity Distribution for all pairs of strings in a collection. Our algorithms take advantage of the BWT computed for the concatenation of all strings, and use compressed data structures that allow reducing the running time with a small memory footprint, as shown by a set of experiments with real and artificial datasets.

The authors propose a novel model called concatenated recursive compressor-decompressor network (CRCDNet) for contrast-enhanced super-resolution. The characteristics of authors' model can be summarised as follows. First, a compression-decompression process reduces the computational complexity compared with the general fully convolutional model. Second, an internal/external skip-connection is used to preserve information of the preceding layers. Finally, by employing a recursive module, authors' model has a small number of parameters, yet is a deep and robust network. The authors apply authors' proposed network to license plate images. As a real application, license plates can provide important evidence for investigation of crimes and for security, but it is very difficult to collect the vast amounts of license plates required for analysis based on a data-driven approach. To solve this problem, the authors generated virtual datasets to train authors' model, while analysing the performance with real license plate datasets. Authors' method achieves better performance than the state-of-the-art models on license plate images.

Biological networks have recently gathered much attraction in finding their motifs. Motifs can be considered as subgraphs that occur in a particular network at significantly higher frequencies than random networks. The importance of this problem causes attention of improving the existing algorithms. As the runtime of an algorithm is an important aspect, applying parallel techniques is appropriate for better improvement. In this paper a parallel algorithm (ParaKavosh) for finding network motifs is presented. Our algorithm is tested on E. coli, S. cerevisiae, Homo sapiens and Rattus norvegicus networks. The cost optimality of the algorithm is also shown by analyzing the obtained results with an efficient sequential algorithm. The results show that the algorithm performs much better in terms of runtime.

This paper presents churn predictions with the Gaussian Naïve Bayes method. Churn prediction is a forecasting method to predict customer decisions in a company's service or product (churn). With high public enthusiasm and an increasing number of customers in the Big Data era, a fast computing process is needed to predict churn as quickly as possible. In this paper, computing is accelerated by the OpenMP platform parallel algorithm. Churn prediction experiments are performed with different amounts of test data, ranging from 100, 300, 500, 700, to 900 data. The results obtained show that implementing OpenMP in predicting churn is faster than serial processing. The obtained speedup and efficiency reached more than 1.49 and 37%, even for test data of 300 and 500, based on the tests, the speedup and efficiency reached 1.99 and 50%.

Aiming at the problems of complex and variable bio-electromagnetic computing, large amount of calculation, and insufficient calculation accuracy to meet the actual clinical needs, a parallel algorithm based on OpenMP was introduced. A multi-threaded operation of the electromagnetic computing model was realized by using a mixed programming method. The parallel method work at a single-computer with multi-core is performed on the electromagnetic calculation process of the human brain model stimulated by the transcranial magnetic stimulation coil, which improves the calculation efficiency of the model, so that the electromagnetic calculation of the brain model with higher accuracy can be satisfied.

In order to solve the problem of slow computation speed and difficulty in solving electromagnetic response of electrically large targets by using finite difference frequency domain (FDFD) serial method, a parallel FDFD calculation method based on MPI memory sharing mechanism is proposed. In the method, the complex sparse matrix is allocated to each sub process by row, and the intermediate matrix used in all processes is stored in the shared memory to reduce the memory consumption. The conjugate gradient method is used to obtain the solution of the equation. Numerical results show the correctness and efficiency of the proposed method.
