Energy-Efficient QoS-Aware Scheduling for S-NUCA Many-Cores
Optimizing performance and energy efficiency in many-core processors, especially within Non-Uniform Cache Access (NUCA) architectures, remains a critical challenge. The performance heterogeneity inherent in S-NUCA systems complicates task scheduling due to varying cache access latencies across cores. This paper introduces a novel QoS management policy to maintain application execution within predefined Quality of Service (QoS) targets, measured using the Application Heartbeats framework. QoS me…

The "Gollum effect" - wow didn't know this name, but yes, this is exactly what makes certain fields so terrible (like network science). It's just about old men behaving like Gorillas 🤮 https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-025-01588-w

Science’s ‘Gollum effect’: PhDs bear brunt of territorial behaviour
Survey respondents at all career stages report colleagues engaging in territorial and possessive behaviours — but early-career researchers are most often affected.

Discovery and Localization of the Swift-Observed FRB 20241228A in a Star-forming Host Galaxy
On 2024 December 28, CHIME/FRB detected the thus-far non-repeating FRB 20241228A with a real-time signal-to-noise ratio of $>50$. Approximately 112~s later, the X-ray Telescope onboard the Neil Gehrels Swift Observatory was on source, the fastest follow-up to-date of a non-repeating FRB (Tohuvavohu et al. in prep.). Using CHIME/FRB and two of the three CHIME/FRB Outriggers, we obtained a Very Long Baseline Interferometry localization for FRB 20241228A with a 1$σ$ confidence ellipse of 11$^{\pr…
