Em computação quântica, um algoritmo quântico é um algoritmo que funciona em um modelo realístico de computação quântica. O modelo mais utilizado é o modelo do circuito de computação quântica.
Big O notation describes how the time and space complexity of an algorithm changes as the size of the input increases. It can tell whether the computational time and space required is constant, linear, quadratic, or other relationship to the input size. For example, an algorithm that prints each element of an array is O(n) linear time, as doubling the array size doubles the computation time. Comparing each element to every other element is O(n^2) quadratic time, as adding one more element increases the computation exponentially. Understanding an algorithm's Big O performance is important for ensuring efficient operation on large inputs.

A Comparison of Serial and Parallel Substring Matching Algorithmszexin wan
This document summarizes a study comparing serial and parallel substring matching algorithms. It describes implementing a naive serial algorithm and dynamic programming algorithm in parallel using RPI's supercomputer. Testing on randomly generated and real-world text data showed the parallel naive algorithm outperformed the parallel dynamic algorithm for smaller files, while the dynamic algorithm scaled better to larger files. Analysis found the parallel algorithms grew exponentially with input size due to blocking MPI calls, though the dynamic implementation had memory issues for large files due to its 2D array structure. On average, the parallel implementations provided a 25x speedup over the fastest serial algorithm.
This document summarizes a presentation on incrementally learning non-stationary temporal causal networks from streaming telecommunication data. It introduces the problem of modeling causal relationships from large, non-stationary data. The solution presented combines Dirichlet process Gaussian mixture models with a Bayesian network structure learning algorithm to incrementally learn a non-parametric temporal causal network from streaming data. The algorithm detects concept drifts to trigger relearning. When applied to a real telecommunication dataset, it identified causal relationships and concept drifts without revisiting old data.
The document discusses randomized algorithms for solving the closest pair of points problem, beginning with Rabin's randomized linear time algorithm from 1976. It describes how Khuller and Matias later proposed a simpler randomized sieve algorithm in 1995. It also discusses how Fortune and Hopcroft showed in 1979 that Rabin's algorithm relies on the power of randomness to break lower bounds, presenting a deterministic O(n log log n) time algorithm. The document raises questions about the assumptions of unit-cost operations like hashing and floor functions.
The best known deterministic polynomial-time algorithm for primality testing right now is due to
Agrawal, Kayal, and Saxena. This algorithm has a time complexity O(log15=2(n)). Although this algorithm is
polynomial, its reliance on the congruence of large polynomials results in enormous computational requirement.
In this paper, we propose a parallelization technique for this algorithm based on message-passing
parallelism together with four workload-distribution strategies. We perform a series of experiments on an
implementation of this algorithm in a high-performance computing system consisting of 15 nodes, each with
4 CPU cores. The experiments indicate that our proposed parallelization technique introduce a significant
speedup on existing implementations. Furthermore, the dynamic workload-distribution strategy performs
better than the others. Overall, the experiments show that the parallelization obtains up to 36 times speedup.

Grid computing is a hardware and software infrastructure and provides affordable, sustainable, and reliable access. Its aim is
to create a supercomputer using free resources. One of the challenges to the Grid computing is scheduling problem which is regarded
as a tough issue. Since scheduling problem is a non-deterministic issue in the Grid, deterministic algorithms cannot be used to improve
scheduling. In this paper, a combination of imperialist competition algorithm (ICA) and gravitational attraction is used for to address the
problem of independent task scheduling in a grid environment, with the aim of reducing the makespan and energy. Experimental results
compare ICA with other algorithms and illustrate that ICA finds a shorter makespan and energy relative to the others. Moreover, it
converges quickly, finding its optimum solution in less time than the other algorithms.

Survey on classification algorithms for data mining (comparison and evaluation)Alexander Decker
This document provides an overview and comparison of three classification algorithms: K-Nearest Neighbors (KNN), Decision Trees, and Bayesian Networks. It discusses each algorithm, including how KNN classifies data based on its k nearest neighbors. Decision Trees classify data based on a tree structure of decisions, and Bayesian Networks classify data based on probabilities of relationships between variables. The document conducts an analysis of these three algorithms to determine which has the best performance and lowest time complexity for classification tasks based on evaluating a mock dataset over 24 months.
Job Scheduling on the Grid Environment using Max-Min Firefly AlgorithmEditor IJCATR
Grid computing indeed is the next generation of distributed systems and its goals is creating a powerful virtual, great, and
autonomous computer that is created using countless Heterogeneous resource with the purpose of sharing resources. Scheduling is one
of the main steps to exploit the capabilities of emerging computing systems such as the grid. Scheduling of the jobs in computational
grids due to Heterogeneous resources is known as an NP-Complete problem. Grid resources belong to different management domains
and each applies different management policies. Since the nature of the grid is Heterogeneous and dynamic, techniques used in
traditional systems cannot be applied to grid scheduling, therefore new methods must be found. This paper proposes a new algorithm
which combines the firefly algorithm with the Max-Min algorithm for scheduling of jobs on the grid. The firefly algorithm is a new
technique based on the swarm behavior that is inspired by social behavior of fireflies in nature. Fireflies move in the search space of
problem to find the optimal or near-optimal solutions. Minimization of the makespan and flowtime of completing jobs simultaneously
are the goals of this paper. Experiments and simulation results show that the proposed method has a better efficiency than other
compared algorithms.

This document summarizes a research paper that proposes using a fuzzy ant colony system approach to solve the fuzzy vehicle routing problem with time windows (VRPTW). The paper models the fuzzy VRPTW using credibility theory to handle uncertain travel times represented as triangular fuzzy numbers. An improved ant colony system is then used as a metaheuristic to find high-quality routes that satisfy time window constraints at a desired level of confidence. Computational results on benchmark problems demonstrate the effectiveness of integrating fuzzy concepts with the ant colony system to solve the fuzzy VRPTW.

An Efficient Genetic Algorithm for Solving Knapsack Problem.pdfNancy Ideker
The document describes using a genetic algorithm to solve the knapsack problem. It proposes a new fitness function that reduces the number of iterations needed to find the optimal solution, improving computation time by 77%. It outlines the genetic algorithm process, including coding scheme representation, fitness function, selection, crossover and mutation operators. For the sample knapsack problem of 14 items, the enhanced fitness function finds the optimal solution in an average of 29 iterations compared to 126 iterations using the traditional fitness function.
This document summarizes a paper that introduces a mathematical approach to quantify errors resulting from reduced order modeling (ROM) techniques. ROM aims to reduce the dimensionality of input and output data for computationally intensive simulations like uncertainty quantification. The paper presents a method to calculate probabilistic error bounds for ROM that account for discarded model components. Numerical experiments on a pin cell reactor physics model demonstrate the ability to determine error bounds and validate them against actual errors with high probability. The error bounds approach could enable ROM techniques to self-adapt the level of reduction needed to ensure errors remain below thresholds for reliability.
Harnessing WebAssembly for Real-time Stateless Streaming PipelinesChristina Lin
Traditionally, dealing with real-time data pipelines has involved significant overhead, even for straightforward tasks like data transformation or masking. However, in this talk, we’ll venture into the dynamic realm of WebAssembly (WASM) and discover how it can revolutionize the creation of stateless streaming pipelines within a Kafka (Redpanda) broker. These pipelines are adept at managing low-latency, high-data-volume scenarios.
Embedded machine learning-based road conditions and driving behavior monitoringIJECEIAES
Car accident rates have increased in recent years, resulting in losses in human lives, properties, and other financial costs. An embedded machine learning-based system is developed to address this critical issue. The system can monitor road conditions, detect driving patterns, and identify aggressive driving behaviors. The system is based on neural networks trained on a comprehensive dataset of driving events, driving styles, and road conditions. The system effectively detects potential risks and helps mitigate the frequency and impact of accidents. The primary goal is to ensure the safety of drivers and vehicles. Collecting data involved gathering information on three key road events: normal street and normal drive, speed bumps, circular yellow speed bumps, and three aggressive driving actions: sudden start, sudden stop, and sudden entry. The gathered data is processed and analyzed using a machine learning system designed for limited power and memory devices. The developed system resulted in 91.9% accuracy, 93.6% precision, and 92% recall. The achieved inference time on an Arduino Nano 33 BLE Sense with a 32-bit CPU running at 64 MHz is 34 ms and requires 2.6 kB peak RAM and 139.9 kB program flash memory, making it suitable for resource-constrained embedded systems.

DEEP LEARNING FOR SMART GRID INTRUSION DETECTION: A HYBRID CNN-LSTM-BASED MODELgerogepatton
As digital technology becomes more deeply embedded in power systems, protecting the communication
networks of Smart Grids (SG) has emerged as a critical concern. Distributed Network Protocol 3 (DNP3)
represents a multi-tiered application layer protocol extensively utilized in Supervisory Control and Data
Acquisition (SCADA)-based smart grids to facilitate real-time data gathering and control functionalities.
Robust Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS) are necessary for early threat detection and mitigation because
of the interconnection of these networks, which makes them vulnerable to a variety of cyberattacks. To
solve this issue, this paper develops a hybrid Deep Learning (DL) model specifically designed for intrusion
detection in smart grids. The proposed approach is a combination of the Convolutional Neural Network
(CNN) and the Long-Short-Term Memory algorithms (LSTM). We employed a recent intrusion detection
dataset (DNP3), which focuses on unauthorized commands and Denial of Service (DoS) cyberattacks, to
train and test our model. The results of our experiments show that our CNN-LSTM method is much better
at finding smart grid intrusions than other deep learning algorithms used for classification. In addition,
our proposed approach improves accuracy, precision, recall, and F1 score, achieving a high detection
accuracy rate of 99.50%.

11. Oracle Query
It’s easy to say that there is a need to have a function that
distinguishes between good and bad inputs, s.t. for a unique input x∗,
f (x∗) = 1, but how is this accomplished on a quantum computer?
An input that satisfies the search criterion can have its phase
amplitude, αi flipped. That is:
αi → −αi (3)

Grover’s Diffusion Gate applies this mapping:
αx |x → (2µ − αx ) |x (4)
Here, µ = 1
N x αx ∀x ∈ {0, 1}n
Recall that the Oracle query operation flips the phase of the state’s
normalized amplitude: αx → −αx .

17. Conclusions
Quantum hardware is available and readily tested on, however major
challenges are still available for Grover’s algorithm to be applicable.
Grover’s Algorithm can succesfully solve an unstructured search in a
function space, given a constructed oracle, faster than any classical
methodology.
If practical, Grover’s Algorithm presents a threat to all Lattice-based
encryption schemes.

18. Further Work
Investigate the scalability of the Oracle; can it be implemented for
simple problems without using an extra amount of qubits and
quantum gates?
Grover’s algorithm assumes the oracle is given, so for each new
quantum search a new one must be constructed.
Can an oracle be built that probabilistically encodes classes of search
problems?

21. Compilation Time and Problem Size
Quote from Craig Gidney from Google’s Quantum Computing
The actual obstacle to running Grover’s algorithm in practice is
that the circuits are large, so you need error correction, but this
adds significant overhead. Evaluating a function under superpo-
sition is easily a billion times less energy efficient than classically
computing the same function, using current techniques. This re-
quires you to go to absolutely enormous problem sizes in order
for the quadratic advantage to overcome this starting penalty, and
because Grover search cannot be paralelized the result is a quan-
tum circuit that will take on the order of a year or a decade to
evaluate. There are not very many problems where people would
be willing to wait ten years to make the computation 10x cheaper,
in terms of dollars, compared to running in parallel on a hundred
thousand cloud computers for a few weeks.
