Up Helly Aa refers to winter fire festivals held in Shetland, Scotland annually in mid-winter marking the end of the yule season. The Lerwick celebration involves up to 1000 costumed participants marching in squads through town, growing out of older traditions of dragging burning tar barrels. Over time, the celebrations became more elaborate, with Viking themes being introduced in the late 1800s including burning a longship replica. While originally a young working class male event, Up Helly Aa is now larger and more organized while maintaining connections to its origins over 150 years ago.

Event driven, mobile artificial intelligence algorithmsDinesh More
This document summarizes a paper presented at the 2010 Second International Conference on Computer Modeling and Simulation. The paper proposes a novel methodology called BoilingJulus for deploying object-oriented languages.

The paper describes the implementation of BoilingJulus and analyzes its performance through various experiments and comparisons to other methodologies.
This document provides an introduction to quantum computing. It defines quantum technology and quantum computing, explaining that quantum computers make use of quantum phenomena like superposition and entanglement. It describes how quantum computers differ from classical computers in their ability to be in multiple states at once using qubits. Examples are given of existing quantum computers from IBM and Google. The document concludes by offering recommendations for how to learn quantum computing, including online courses and accessing IBM's quantum computer.
Simulation tools can help understand natural systems and develop self-aware systems. Existing simulators like Repast and The ONE have advantages but lack certain features. The CoSMoS method structures simulation development through domain, platform, and results models to help ensure simulations accurately represent domains. Simulations aid controller design for systems like underwater robots, though the "reality gap" between simulation and reality requires attention.
Computer simulations and models use mathematical representations to imitate and gain insight into real-world systems. Good models rely on feedback loops between inputs, processes, and outputs. Creating accurate simulations involves gathering data, developing algorithms to generate outputs from inputs, validating results, and addressing complexity and assumptions. Traffic and demographic models help analyze transportation networks and population trends over time. Both have benefits like testing scenarios safely but also challenges regarding data accuracy, access, and reliability over long periods.
This document summarizes quantum computing. It begins with an introduction explaining the differences between classical and quantum bits, with qubits being able to exist in superpositions of states. The history of quantum computing is discussed, including early explorations in the 1970s-80s and Peter Shor's breakthrough in 1994. D-Wave Systems is mentioned as the first company to develop a quantum computer in 2011. The scope, architecture, working principles, advantages and applications of quantum computing are then outlined at a high level. The document concludes by discussing the growing field of quantum computing research and applications.

Dandelion Hashtable: beyond billion requests per second on a commodity serverAntonios Katsarakis
This slide deck presents DLHT, a concurrent in-memory hashtable. Despite efforts to optimize hashtables, that go as far as sacrificing core functionality, state-of-the-art designs still incur multiple memory accesses per request and block request processing in three cases. First, most hashtables block while waiting for data to be retrieved from memory. Second, open-addressing designs, which represent the current state-of-the-art, either cannot free index slots on deletes or must block all requests to do so. Third, index resizes block every request until all objects are copied to the new index. Defying folklore wisdom, DLHT forgoes open-addressing and adopts a fully-featured and memory-aware closed-addressing design based on bounded cache-line-chaining. This design offers lock-free index operations and deletes that free slots instantly, (2) completes most requests with a single memory access, (3) utilizes software prefetching to hide memory latencies, and (4) employs a novel non-blocking and parallel resizing. In a commodity server and a memory-resident workload, DLHT surpasses 1.6B requests per second and provides 3.5x (12x) the throughput of the state-of-the-art closed-addressing (open-addressing) resizable hashtable on Gets (Deletes).

As part of the talk, we will consider the architectural strategies necessary for the development of highly loaded fintech solutions. We will focus on using queues and streaming to efficiently work and manage large amounts of data in real-time and to minimize latency.
We will focus special attention on the architectural patterns used in the design of the fintech system, microservices and event-driven architecture, which ensure scalability, fault tolerance, and consistency of the entire system.
Main news related to the CCS TSI 2023 (2023/1695)Jakub Marek
An English 🇬🇧 translation of a presentation to the speech I gave about the main changes brought by CCS TSI 2023 at the biggest Czech conference on Communications and signalling systems on Railways, which was held in Clarion Hotel Olomouc from 7th to 9th November 2023 (konferenceszt.cz). Attended by around 500 participants and 200 on-line followers.

High performance Serverless Java on AWS- GoTo Amsterdam 2024Vadym Kazulkin
Java is for many years one of the most popular programming languages, but it used to have hard times in the Serverless community. Java is known for its high cold start times and high memory footprint, comparing to other programming languages like Node.js and Python. In this talk I'll look at the general best practices and techniques we can use to decrease memory consumption, cold start times for Java Serverless development on AWS including GraalVM (Native Image) and AWS own offering SnapStart based on Firecracker microVM snapshot and restore and CRaC (Coordinated Restore at Checkpoint) runtime hooks. I'll also provide a lot of benchmarking on Lambda functions trying out various deployment package sizes, Lambda memory settings, Java compilation options and HTTP (a)synchronous clients and measure their impact on cold and warm start times.

Computer Simulation and
Modelling
Simulation of a tokomak reactor (Device that uses magnetic fields to confine plasma into a donut shape)
2. Description
• Process of designing model that reflects real
system Formula 1 aerodynamics
• Conducting experiments on models for
understanding behaviour of real world
• First large-scale use was to model nuclear
detonation during WWII
Model of a satellite tobacco mosaic virus that involves a massive amount of computing time
3. Process
Aerodynamics of an airplane propellor
Osmosis
1. Define problem or experiment
2. Collect data to determine probability distributions
3. Develop and test model
4.Validate that model functions by using historical data
5. Run simulation under set conditions
6. Record and implement results Aerodynamics of a frisbee
4. Other Info
Input data can vary from
A few numbers (eg. simulation of waveform of electricity on wires
to
a few terabytes of information (weather modelling) Difficulties
sensitivity and accuracy:
with so much potential calculations, input
data must be precise
Advantages:
-Gives estimate of system performance
-Allows activity to be studied in accelerated time
Heat transfer in a pump -Can study multiple aspects at a specific time
-Run scenarios under controlled conditions
5. Applications
Weather simulation
• Economics
• stock markets,
• economic stability
Airflow around a falling parachute and a hovering jet
• business management • Chemistry
• Engineering • chemical reactions
• oil reservoirs • interaction of particles • Physics
• traffic simulation • Biology • noise barriers
• weather forcasting • ecosystem balance • fluid dynamics
• vehicle safety • genetic mutations • quantum mechanics
7. Virtual Reality
• Computer simulation that simulates aspects of the real world
• As processing power increases, so does authenticity of virtual realities
• Computer visuals have pixels, virtual realities have limited quality
compared to real world
• Physicists have recently found that the world is made of finite matter
little particles that they even call pixels
• Means the universe can be very accurately simulated
8. You’re Living in a Computer
Simulation
• Ancient Chinese philosopher Zhuangzi noticed that his dreams of
being something other than human were indistinguishable from
his experiences being himself
• Nick Bostrom had an idea that we are living in a computer • Theoretically, it is possible to suspend one’s brain in “life”-
sustaining liquids and connect its neurons by wires to a computer.
simulation assuming that:
• A society like ours can eventually have the capability of • Wires provide electrical impulses identical to those the brain
normally receives
creating a computer simulation indistinguishable from reality
• Such a society would repeat the process • Since all interactions would be the same as in a skull, no way of
telling if brain is in vat or skull
• After time, societies within the simulations will eventually be
able to create their own simulationsOdds are we are in a
simulation
9. Time Travel
• Possible theory to time travel
• Prof. Frank Tipler proposes using computer simulation, as physics doesn’t allow for easy time travel
• Since processing power of computers increase exponentially, in the future we may have infinite/near
infinite processing power
• Using this, we can create simulations that simulate our own progress
• With Virtual Reality, we can experience the simulation
• Because simulations can be accelerated or slowed, we can “travel” to either the future or the past
