Neuhaus, assistant director of thP Physical Plant. The proposed budget for the year underestimated the rising cost of energy. Ac·· cording to Neuhaus, the cost per energy unit has riseq over 35 percent and show5 no sign of abating. "At this time," he said, "the cost of the kilowatt hour has risen from three to five cents." "They tell me that at other universities they're having problems. '.with . budgets," said N~uhaus. "Especially campuses like USF and UF, where medical centers are situated and consume a great amount of energy." According to Neuhaus, UCF has implemented a Delta 1000 and 2000 Horeywell system for energy management. "When we heard about the demonstration seminar conducted by Honeywell, we thought it was ridiculous .. But we sent a representative who was also skeptical," he said. "However, he came back very optimistic about the program. After taking it up with the administration, we began to· use it off and on from April 1979 to the present.". Many bugs are still within the system, Neuhaus said, and there is no date plan- ned to have the entire system working. Neuhaus. added one ~f the biggest problems with the Delta is it is "very vulnerable toaberrationsin the line surges such as lightning."

  • Distributed $(\Delta+1)$-Coloring Via Ultrafast Graph Shattering | SIAM
    SIAM J. COMPUT. \bigcircc 2020 Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics Vol. 49, No. 3, pp. 497{539 DISTRIBUTED (\Delta + 1)-COLORING VIA ULTRAFAST GRAPH SHATTERING\ast y z x YI-JUN CHANG , WENZHENG LI , AND SETH PETTIE Abstract. Vertex coloring is one of the classic symmetry breaking problems studied in distrib- uted computing. In this paper, we present a new algorithm for (\Delta +1)-list coloring in the randomized 0 LOCAL model running in O(Detd(poly log n)) = O(poly(log log n)) time, where Detd(n ) is the de- 0 terministic complexity of (deg +1)-list coloring on n -vertex graphs. (In this problem, each v has a palette of size deg(v)+1.) This improves upon a previousp randomized algorithm of Harris, Schneider,p and Su [J. ACM, 65 (2018), 19] with complexity O( log \Delta +log log n+Detd(poly log n)) = O( log n). Unless \Delta is small, it is also faster than the best known deterministic algorithm of Fraigniaud,Hein- rich, and Kosowski [Proceedings of the 57th Annual IEEE Symposium on Foundations of Com- puter Science (FOCS), 2016] and Barenboim, Elkin, and Goldenberg [Proceedings of the 38th An- nualp ACM Symposium on Principles of Distributed Computing (PODC), 2018], with complexity O( \Delta log \Deltalog\ast \Delta +log\ast n). Our algorithm's running time is syntactically very similar to the \Omega (Det(poly log n)) lower bound of Chang, Kopelowitz, and Pettie [SIAM J. Comput., 48 (2019), pp. 122{143], where Det(n0) is the deterministic complexity of (\Delta + 1)-list coloring on n0-vertex graphs.

Based on mitochondrial cytochrome b sequences, we found no evidence of population structure across Hawaii and the North Pacific; however, we observed genetic structuring between northern and southern Pacific locations with the equator-straddling Line Islands affiliated with the southern population. The Marquesas Islands sample in the South Pacific was highly divergent d( = 4.12% average sequence divergence from individuals from all other locations) indicating a cryptic species.

OSSA'S Earth-orbiting spacecraft have investigated the near-Earth environment discovering new scientific facts, such as the Van Allen radiation belts, energetic particle and solar activity, the shape of the Earth and meteorological phenomena not possible to obtain in any other way. Scientific space- craft have looked, safely above the atmospheric curtain, far into space to receive more information on the formation of planets, stars and galaxies. Automated spacecraft have observed Mars and Venus, mapped the Moon, observed the Sun from various points in the solar system and future missions will give us even more information on previously visited planets as well as Mercury, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune.
