The Ideal

The sound propagation in a wedge-shaped waveguide with perfectly reflecting boundaries is one of the few range-dependent problems with an analytical solution. This provides a benchmark for the theoretical and computational studies on the simulation of ocean acoustic applications. We present a direct finite volume method (FVM) simulation for the ideal wedge problem, and both time and frequency domain results are analyzed. We also study the broadband problem with large-scale parallel simulations. The results presented in this paper validate the accuracy of the numerical techniques and show that the direct FVM simulation could be applied to large-scale complex acoustic applications with a high performance computing platform.

Massive image processing technology requires high requirements of processor and memory, and it needs to adopt high performance of processor and the large capacity memory. While the single or single core processing and traditional memory can’t satisfy the need of image processing. This paper introduces the cloud computing function into the massive image processing system. Through the cloud computing function it expands the virtual space of the system, saves computer resources and improves the efficiency of image processing. The system processor uses multi-core DSP parallel processor, and develops visualization parameter setting window and output results using VC software settings. Through simulation calculation we get the image processing speed curve and the system image adaptive curve. It provides the technical reference for the design of large-scale image processing system.

AbstractThe creation of a 3D mosaic is often the first step when using the high-spatial- and temporal-resolution data produced by ground-based radars. Efficient yet accurate methods are needed to mosaic data from dozens of radar to better understand the precipitation processes in synoptic-scale systems such as tropical cyclones. Research-grade radar mosaic methods of analyzing historical weather events should utilize data from both sides of a moving temporal window and process them in a flexible data architecture that is not available in most stand-alone software tools or real-time systems. Thus, these historical analyses require a different strategy for optimizing flexibility and scalability by removing time constraints from the design. This paper presents a MapReduce-based playback framework using Apache Spark’s computational engine to interpolate large volumes of radar reflectivity and velocity data onto 3D grids. Designed as being friendly to use on a high-performance computing cluster, these methods may also be executed on a low-end configured machine. A protocol is designed to enable interoperability with GIS and spatial analysis functions in this framework. Open-source software is utilized to enhance radar usability in the nonspecialist community. Case studies during a tropical cyclone landfall shows this framework’s capability of efficiently creating a large-scale high-resolution 3D radar mosaic with the integration of GIS functions for spatial analysis.

Abstract Due to the significantly drastic progress and improvement in neurophysiological recording technologies, neuroscientists have faced various complexities dealing with unstructured large-scale neural data. In the neuroscience community, these complexities could create serious bottlenecks in storing, sharing, and processing neural datasets. In this article, we developed a distributed high-performance computing (HPC) framework called `Big neuronal data framework' (BNDF), to overcome these complexities. BNDF is based on open-source big data frameworks, Hadoop and Spark providing a flexible and scalable structure. We examined BNDF on three different large-scale electrophysiological recording datasets from nonhuman primate’s brains. Our results exhibited faster runtimes with scalability due to the distributed nature of BNDF. We compared BNDF results to a widely used platform like MATLAB in an equitable computational resource. Compared with other similar methods, using BNDF provides more than five times faster performance in spike sorting as a usual neuroscience application.

Metagenomics is a powerful approach to study environment samples which do not require the isolation and cultivation of individual organisms. One of the essential tasks in a metagenomic project is to identify the origin of reads, referred to as taxonomic assignment. Due to the fact that each metagenomic project has to analyze large-scale datasets, the metatenomic assignment is very much computation intensive. This study proposes a parallel algorithm for the taxonomic assignment problem, called SeMetaPL, which aims to deal with the computational challenge. The proposed algorithm is evaluated with both simulated and real datasets on a high performance computing system. Experimental results demonstrate that the algorithm is able to achieve good performance and utilize resources of the system efficiently. The software implementing the algorithm and all test datasets can be downloaded at http://it.hcmute.edu.vn/bioinfo/metapro/SeMetaPL.html.

Earth Observation Data

The high-performance cloud-computing platform Google Earth Engine has been developed for global-scale analysis based on the Earth observation data. In particular, in this work, the geometric accuracy of the two most used nearly-global free DSMs (SRTM and ASTER) has been evaluated on the territories of four American States (Colorado, Michigan, Nevada, Utah) and one Italian Region (Trentino Alto- Adige, Northern Italy) exploiting the potentiality of this platform. These are large areas characterized by different terrain morphology, land covers and slopes. The assessment has been performed using two different reference DSMs: the USGS National Elevation Dataset (NED) and a LiDAR acquisition. The DSMs accuracy has been evaluated through computation of standard statistic parameters, both at global scale (considering the whole State/Region) and in function of the terrain morphology using several slope classes. The geometric accuracy in terms of Standard deviation and NMAD, for SRTM range from 2-3 meters in the first slope class to about 45 meters in the last one, whereas for ASTER, the values range from 5-6 to 30 meters.<br><br> In general, the performed analysis shows a better accuracy for the SRTM in the flat areas whereas the ASTER GDEM is more reliable in the steep areas, where the slopes increase. These preliminary results highlight the GEE potentialities to perform DSM assessment on a global scale.
