Scheduling process: Using one-day scheduling on multi-family projects to reduce delivery time

The past fifty years has seen many changes in the construction process, but little has changed in the area of scheduling for most projects. There have been advances in the software used to manage schedules, but the same theories and practices have been used for decades. This process works well and will continue to be norm on most projects. Some...

HARP: A submillimetre heterodyne array receiver operating on the James Clerk Maxwell Telescope

This paper describes the key design features and performance of HARP, an innovative heterodyne focal-plane array receiver designed and built to operate in the submillimetre on the James Clerk Maxwell Telescope (JCMT) in Hawaii. The 4x4 element array uses SIS detectors, and is the first sub-millimetre spectral imaging system on the JCMT. HARP...

An effective strategy for porting C++ applications on cell

In this paper we present a solution for efficient porting of sequential C++ applications on the Cell B.E. processor. We present our step-by-step approach, focusing on its generality, we provide a set of code templates and optimization guidelines to support the porting, and we include a set of equations to estimate the performance gain of the new...
