This fast growth is possible thanks to the rapid development of computing systems since its first days in 1947 and the invention of transistor till the present days with high performance and scalable distributed computing systems. This fast growth of computing systems was first observed by Gordon E. Moore in 1965 and postulated as Moore’s Law. For the development of the scalable distributed computing systems, the year 2000 was a very special year. The first GHz speed processor, GB size memory and GB/s data transmission through network were achieved. Interestingly, in the same year the usable Grid computing systems emerged, which gave a strong impulse to a rapid development of distributed computing systems. This paper recognizes these facts that occurred in the year 2000, as the G-phenomena, a millennium cornerstone for the rapid development of scalable distributed systems evolved around the Grid and Cloud computing paradigms.展开更多

While providing unprecedented capabilities to conduct computational experiments of historic significance, these systems are presently difficult to program. The users, who are domain experts rather than computer experts, prefer to use programming models closer to their domains （e.g., physics and biology） rather than MPI and OpenME This has led the development of domain-specific programming that provides domain-specific programming interfaces but abstracts away some performance-critical architecture details. Based on experience in designing large-scale computing systems, a hybrid programming framework for scientific computing on heterogeneous architectures is proposed in this work. Its design philosophy is to provide a collaborative mechanism for domain experts and computer experts so that both domain-specific knowledge and performance-critical architecture details can be adequately exploited. Two real-world scientific applications have been evaluated on TH-IA, a peta-scale CPU-GPU heterogeneous system that is currently the 5th fastest supercomputer in the world. The experimental results show that the proposed framework is well suited for developing large-scale scientific computing applications on peta-scale heterogeneous CPU/GPU systems.展开更多

This fast growth of computing systems was first observed by Gordon E. Moore in 1965 and postulated as Moore’s Law. For the development of the scalable distributed computing systems, the year 2000 was a very special year. The first GHz speed processor, GB size memory and GB/s data transmission through network were achieved. Interestingly, in the same year the usable Grid computing systems emerged, which gave a strong impulse to a rapid development of distributed computing systems. This paper recognizes these facts that occurred in the year 2000, as the G-phenomena, a millennium cornerstone for the rapid development of scalable distributed systems evolved around the Grid and Cloud computing paradigms.

文摘With the global trend of pursuing clean energy and decarbonization,power systems have been evolving in a fast pace that we have never seen in the history of electrification.This evolution makes the power system more dynamic and more distributed,with higher uncertainty.These new power system behaviors bring significant challenges in power system modeling and simulation as more data need to be analyzed for larger systems and more complex models to be solved in a shorter time period.The conventional computing approaches will not be sufficient for future power systems.This paper provides a historical review of computing for power system operation and planning,discusses technology advancements in high performance computing(HPC),and describes the drivers for employing HPC techniques.Some high performance computing application examples with different HPC techniques,including the latest quantum computing,are also presented to show how HPC techniques can help us be well prepared to meet the requirements of power system computing in a clean energy future.

文摘Increasing reliance on large-scale AI models has led to rising demand for intelligent services.The centralized cloud computing approach has limitations in terms of data transfer efficiency and response time,and as a result many service providers have begun to deploy edge servers to cache intelligent services in order to reduce transmission delay and communication energy consumption.However,finding the optimal service caching strategy remains a significant challenge due to the stochastic nature of service requests and the bulky nature of intelligent services.To deal with this,we propose a distributed service caching scheme integrating deep reinforcement learning(DRL)with mobility prediction,which we refer to as DSDM.Specifically,we employ the D3QN(Deep Double Dueling Q-Network)framework to integrate Long Short-Term Memory(LSTM)predicted mobile device locations into the service caching replacement algorithm and adopt the distributed multi-agent approach for learning and training.Experimental results demonstrate that DSDM achieves significant performance improvements in reducing communication energy consumption compared to traditional methods across various scenarios.
文摘The rapid adoption of machine learning in sensitive domains,such as healthcare,finance,and government services,has heightened the need for robust,privacy-preserving techniques.Traditional machine learning approaches lack built-in privacy mechanisms,exposing sensitive data to risks,which motivates the development of Privacy-Preserving Machine Learning(PPML)methods.Despite significant advances in PPML,a comprehensive and focused exploration of Secure Multi-Party Computing(SMPC)within this context remains underdeveloped.This review aims to bridge this knowledge gap by systematically analyzing the role of SMPC in PPML,offering a structured overviewof current techniques,challenges,and future directions.Using a semi-systematicmapping studymethodology,this paper surveys recent literature spanning SMPC protocols,PPML frameworks,implementation approaches,threat models,and performance metrics.Emphasis is placed on identifying trends,technical limitations,and comparative strengths of leading SMPC-based methods.Our findings reveal thatwhile SMPCoffers strong cryptographic guarantees for privacy,challenges such as computational overhead,communication costs,and scalability persist.The paper also discusses critical vulnerabilities,practical deployment issues,and variations in protocol efficiency across use cases.

文摘This paper introduces a novel numerical method based on an energy-minimizing normalized residual network(EMNorm Res Net)to compute the ground-state solution of Bose-Einstein condensates at zero or low temperatures.Starting from the three-dimensional Gross-Pitaevskii equation(GPE),we reduce it to the 1D and 2D GPEs because of the radial symmetry and cylindrical symmetry.The ground-state solution is formulated by minimizing the energy functional under constraints,which is directly solved using the EM-Norm Res Net approach.The paper provides detailed solutions for the ground states in 1D,2D(with radial symmetry),and 3D(with cylindrical symmetry).We use the Thomas-Fermi approximation as the target function to pre-train the neural network.Then,the formal network is trained using the energy minimization method.In contrast to traditional numerical methods,our neural network approach introduces two key innovations:(i)a novel normalization technique designed for high-dimensional systems within an energy-based loss function;(ii)improved training efficiency and model robustness by incorporating gradient stabilization techniques into residual networks.Extensive numerical experiments validate the method's accuracy across different spatial dimensions.

文摘Healthcare networks are transitioning from manual records to electronic health records,but this shift introduces vulnerabilities such as secure communication issues,privacy concerns,and the presence of malicious nodes.Existing machine and deep learning-based anomalies detection methods often rely on centralized training,leading to reduced accuracy and potential privacy breaches.Therefore,this study proposes a Blockchain-based-Federated Learning architecture for Malicious Node Detection(BFL-MND)model.It trains models locally within healthcare clusters,sharing only model updates instead of patient data,preserving privacy and improving accuracy.Cloud and edge computing enhance the model’s scalability,while blockchain ensures secure,tamper-proof access to health data.Using the PhysioNet dataset,the proposed model achieves an accuracy of 0.95,F1 score of 0.93,precision of 0.94,and recall of 0.96,outperforming baseline models like random forest(0.88),adaptive boosting(0.90),logistic regression(0.86),perceptron(0.83),and deep neural networks(0.92).

文摘Private clouds and public clouds are turning mutually into the open integrated cloud computing environment,which can aggregate and utilize WAN and LAN networks computing,storage,information and other hardware and software resources sufficiently,but also bring a series of security,reliability and credibility problems.To solve these problems,a novel secure-agent-based trustworthy virtual private cloud model named SATVPC was proposed for the integrated and open cloud computing environment.Through the introduction of secure-agent technology,SATVPC provides an independent,safe and trustworthy computing virtual private platform for multi-tenant systems.In order to meet the needs of the credibility of SATVPC and mandate the trust relationship between each task execution agent and task executor node suitable for their security policies,a new dynamic composite credibility evaluation mechanism was presented,including the credit index computing algorithm and the credibility differentiation strategy.The experimental system shows that SATVPC and the credibility evaluation mechanism can ensure the security of open computing environments with feasibility.Experimental results and performance analysis also show that the credit indexes computing algorithm can evaluate the credibilities of task execution agents and task executor nodes quantitatively,correctly and operationally.

文摘Mobile Cloud Computing （MCC） is emerging as one of the most important branches of cloud computing. In this paper, MCC is defined as cloud computing extended by mobility, and a new ad-hoc infrastructure based on mobile devices. It provides mobile users with data storage and processing services on a cloud computing platform. Because mobile cloud computing is still in its infancy we aim to clarify confusion that has arisen from different views. Existing works are reviewed, and an overview of recent advances in mobile cloud computing is provided. We investigate representative infrastructures of mobile cloud computing and analyze key components. Moreover, emerging MCC models and services are discussed, and challenging issues are identified that will need to be addressed in future work.

文摘Peta-scale high-perfomlance computing systems are increasingly built with heterogeneous CPU and GPU nodes to achieve higher power efficiency and computation throughput. While providing unprecedented capabilities to conduct computational experiments of historic significance, these systems are presently difficult to program. The users, who are domain experts rather than computer experts, prefer to use programming models closer to their domains （e.g., physics and biology） rather than MPI and OpenME This has led the development of domain-specific programming that provides domain-specific programming interfaces but abstracts away some performance-critical architecture details. Based on experience in designing large-scale computing systems, a hybrid programming framework for scientific computing on heterogeneous architectures is proposed in this work. Its design philosophy is to provide a collaborative mechanism for domain experts and computer experts so that both domain-specific knowledge and performance-critical architecture details can be adequately exploited. Two real-world scientific applications have been evaluated on TH-IA, a peta-scale CPU-GPU heterogeneous system that is currently the 5th fastest supercomputer in the world. The experimental results show that the proposed framework is well suited for developing large-scale scientific computing applications on peta-scale heterogeneous CPU/GPU systems.

文摘As the 5G architecture gains momentum,interest in 6G is growing.The proliferation of Internet of Things(IoT)devices,capable of capturing sensitive images,has increased the need for secure transmission and robust access control mechanisms.The vast amount of data generated by low-computing devices poses a challenge to traditional centralized access control,which relies on trusted third parties and complex computations,resulting in intricate interactions,higher hardware costs,and processing delays.To address these issues,this paper introduces a novel distributed access control approach that integrates a decentralized and lightweight encryption mechanism with image transmission.This method enhances data security and resource efficiency without imposing heavy computational and network burdens.In comparison to the best existing approach,it achieves a 7%improvement in accuracy,effectively addressing existing gaps in lightweight encryption and recognition performance.
