Distance-Based ISA for Efficient Register Management
CPU cores have become significantly wider over the past decade. Ten years ago, the highest-performance CPUs could decode only up to four instructions simultaneously and execute up to eight instruct…

Dialing a phone number in the same area code as your own yet still getting charged long distance fees because the number was an exception & outside of your local zone.
Heck, long distance charges for domestic calling in it of itself is probably a foreign concept to Millennials & GenZ.

If groups of parents can band together when deciding on the right age for a smartphone for their younger children, they will stand a better chance to avoid making decisions based on peer pressure at school.

A Neural Network-aided Low Complexity Chase Decoder for URLLC
Ultra-reliable low-latency communications (URLLC) demand decoding algorithms that simultaneously offer high reliability and low complexity under stringent latency constraints. While iterative decoding schemes for LDPC and Polar codes offer a good compromise between performance and complexity, they fall short in approaching the theoretical performance limits in the typical URLLC short block length regime. Conversely, quasi-ML decoding schemes for algebraic codes, like Chase-II decoding, exhibit …

The optimal Padé polynomial for reconstruction of luminosity distance based on 10-fold cross-validation
The cosmography known as the Padé polynomials has been widely used in the reconstruction of luminosity distance, and the orders of Padé polynomials influence the reconstructed result derived from Padé approximation. In this paper, we present a more general scheme of selecting optimal Padé polynomial for reconstruction of luminosity distance based on 10-fold cross-validation. Then the proposed scheme is applied to Pantheon+ dataset. The numerical results clearly indicate that the proposed pr…

Comparing probability distributions: application to quantum states of light
Probability distributions play a central role in quantum mechanics, and even more so in quantum optics with its rich diversity of theoretically conceivable and experimentally accessible quantum states of light. Quantifiers that compare two different states or density matrices in terms of `distances' between the respective probability distributions include the Kullback-Leibler divergence $D_{\rm KL}$, the Bhattacharyya distance $D_{\rm B}$, and the $p$-Wasserstein distance $W_{p}$. We present a …

Mating by copepods is a complicated process since they are always at risk of predation by other plankton or fishes. Male #copepods carefully mechanically and chemically track a receptive female, capture them, and deposit an adhesive spermatophore near the genital open…

DEETA: So, you have an answer for the Summons to Justification. Like what? Surely not a Blood Feud? [rises to face her] I can't have killed someone who's close kin to both of you. Particularly not as your friend here is a citizen of the Vandor Confederacy. As I assume you are. [drops a metal ID card at her feet]
