  • Using FXML in Javafx
    JavaFX and FXML How to use FXML to define the components in a user interface. FXML FXML is an XML format text file that describes an interface for a JavaFX application. You can define components, layouts, styles, and properties in FXML instead of writing code. <GridPane fx:id="root" hgap="10.0" vgap="5.0" xmlns="..."> <children> <Label fx:id="topMessage" GridPane.halignment="CENTER"/> <TextField fx:id="inputField" width="80.0" /> <Button fx:id="submitButton" onAction="#handleGuess" /> <!-- more components --> </children> </GridPane> Creating a UI from FXML The FXMLLoader class reads an FXML file and creates a scene graph for the UI (not the window or Stage). It creates objects for Buttons, Labels, Panes, etc. and performs layout according to the fxml file. creates FXMLLoader reads game.fxml Code to Provide Behavior The FXML scene define components, layouts, and property values, but no behavior or event handlers. You write a Java class called a Controller to provide behavior, including event handlers: class GameController { private TextField inputField; private Button submitButton; /** event handler */ void handleGuess(ActionEvent e)...

  • Improving Resource Utilization in Heterogeneous CPU-GPU Systems
    Improving Resource Utilization in Heterogeneous CPU-GPU Systems A Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of the School of Engineering and Applied Science University of Virginia In Partial Fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy (Computer Engineering) by Michael Boyer May 2013 c 2013 Michael Boyer Abstract Graphics processing units (GPUs) have attracted enormous interest over the past decade due to substantial increases in both performance and programmability. Programmers can potentially leverage GPUs for substantial performance gains, but at the cost of significant software engineering effort. In practice, most GPU applications do not effectively utilize all of the available resources in a system: they either fail to use use a resource at all or use a resource to less than its full potential. This underutilization can hurt both performance and energy efficiency. In this dissertation, we address the underutilization of resources in heterogeneous CPU-GPU systems in three different contexts. First, we address the underutilization of a single GPU by reducing CPU-GPU interaction to improve performance. We use as a case study a computationally-intensive video-tracking application from systems biology. Because of the high cost of CPU-GPU coordination, our initial, straightforward attempts to accelerate this application failed to effectively utilize the GPU. By leveraging some non-obvious optimization strategies, we significantly decreased the amount of CPU-GPU interaction and improved the performance of the GPU implementation by 26x relative to the best CPU implementation. Based on the lessons we learned, we present general guidelines for optimizing GPU applications as well as recommendations for system-level changes that would simplify the development of high-performance GPU applications.

  • Differentiation Rules (Differential Calculus)
    Differentiation Rules (Differential Calculus) 1. Notation The derivative of a function f with respect to one independent variable (usually x or t) is a function that will be denoted by D f . Note that f (x) and (D f )(x) are the values of these functions at x. 2. Alternate Notations for (D f )(x) d d f (x) d f 0 (1) For functions f in one variable, x, alternate notations are: Dx f (x), dx f (x), dx , dx (x), f (x), f (x). The “(x)” part might be dropped although technically this changes the meaning: f is the name of a function, dy 0 whereas f (x) is the value of it at x. If y = f (x), then Dxy, dx , y , etc. can be used. If the variable t represents time then Dt f can be written f˙. The differential, “d f ”, and the change in f ,“D f ”, are related to the derivative but have special meanings and are never used to indicate ordinary differentiation. dy 0 Historical note: Newton used y,˙ while Leibniz used dx . About a century later Lagrange introduced y and Arbogast introduced the operator notation D. 3. Domains The domain of D f is always a subset of the domain of f . The conventional domain of f , if f (x) is given by an algebraic expression, is all values of x for which the expression is defined and results in a real number. If f has the conventional domain, then D f usually, but not always, has conventional domain. Exceptions are noted below.

Introduction to AMD’s processor families (3) Historical remarks 1) Beyond x86 processors AMD also designed and marketed two embedded processor families; • the 2900 family of bipolar, 4-bit slice microprocessors (1975-?) used in a number of processors, such as particular DEC 11 family models, and • the 29000 family (29K family) of CMOS, 32-bit embedded microcontrollers (1987-95). In late 1995 AMD cancelled their 29K family development and transferred the related design team to the firm’s K5 effort, in order to focus on x86 processors [3]. 2) Initially, AMD designed the Am386/486 processors that were clones of Intel’s processors.
