Different Solutions to a Mathematical Problem: A Case Study of Calculus 12theijes
An important duty of the mathematics teacher is to train and to develop thinking for students. To accomplish this duty, teachers can organize creative activities for students through activities of solving problems. In particular, there is an effective way to train students to think is that teachers can organize activities of solving problems in many different ways. Based on this idea, we implement an experiment for students in grade 12 to calculate integrals in various ways. The results of the study showed that students were active to find out different solutions to the given problem.

Techniques to optimize the pagerank algorithm usually fall in two categories. One is to try reducing the work per iteration, and the other is to try reducing the number of iterations. These goals are often at odds with one another. Skipping computation on vertices which have already converged has the potential to save iteration time. Skipping in-identical vertices, with the same in-links, helps reduce duplicate computations and thus could help reduce iteration time. Road networks often have chains which can be short-circuited before pagerank computation to improve performance. Final ranks of chain nodes can be easily calculated. This could reduce both the iteration time, and the number of iterations. If a graph has no dangling nodes, pagerank of each strongly connected component can be computed in topological order. This could help reduce the iteration time, no. of iterations, and also enable multi-iteration concurrency in pagerank computation. The combination of all of the above methods is the STICD algorithm. [sticd] For dynamic graphs, unchanged components whose ranks are unaffected can be skipped altogether.
Levelwise PageRank with Loop-Based Dead End Handling Strategy : SHORT REPORT ...Subhajit Sahu
Abstract — Levelwise PageRank is an alternative method of PageRank computation which decomposes the input graph into a directed acyclic block-graph of strongly connected components, and processes them in topological order, one level at a time. This enables calculation for ranks in a distributed fashion without per-iteration communication, unlike the standard method where all vertices are processed in each iteration. It however comes with a precondition of the absence of dead ends in the input graph. Here, the native non-distributed performance of Levelwise PageRank was compared against Monolithic PageRank on a CPU as well as a GPU. To ensure a fair comparison, Monolithic PageRank was also performed on a graph where vertices were split by components. Results indicate that Levelwise PageRank is about as fast as Monolithic PageRank on the CPU, but quite a bit slower on the GPU. Slowdown on the GPU is likely caused by a large submission of small workloads, and expected to be non-issue when the computation is performed on massive graphs.

Example: Given a jar with unlimited capacity, and unlimited
number of balls. The balls are labeled from 1.
When 1minutes close to 12:00, do: put the 1~10 balls into the jar,
and take the ball with label 10 out of the jar.
When 1/2 minutes close to 12:00, do: put the 11~20 balls into the
jar, and take the ball with label 20 out of the jar.
When 1/4 minutes close to 12:00, do: put the 21~30 balls into the
jar, and take the ball with label 30 out of the jar.

Algorithm and Philosophy
Are you sure? Let us change some rules:
When 1minutes close to 12:00, do: put the 1~10 balls into the jar, and
take the ball with label 1 out of the jar.
When 1/2 minutes close to 12:00, do: put the 11~20 balls into the jar,
and take the ball with label 2 out of the jar.
When 1/4 minutes close to 12:00, do: put the 21~30 balls into the jar,
and take the ball with label 3 out of the jar.

Algorithm and Philosophy
The order of taking balls changes everything!
I don’t think it is right!!!
When 1minutes close to 12:00, do: put the 1~10 balls into the jar, and
take the ball randomly out of the jar.
When 1/2 minutes close to 12:00, do: put the 11~20 balls into the jar,
and take the ball randomly out of the jar.
When 1/4 minutes close to 12:00, do: put the 21~30 balls into the jar,
and take the ball randomly out of the jar.
…… Answer: 0

Algorithm and Philosophy
Too amazing!
The really different part for the above three methods: the label of ball
when taking it out of jar.
Labels change the results!!!!
Labels change the way of our thinking.
Nothing is infinity, and infinity is nothing!

The differences between “nothing” and “infinity” only exist in
human’s mind!
