Can You Parallelize Time?: Moving through the complexity of time

This Bachelor End Project Thesis is about creating parallel variants of time-dependent methods. To achieve this, the time-dependent problem is formulated as a large system of linear equations that is solved iteratively. This linear system is determined from the time-dependent linear heat equation in 1D that all the analysis is about. The...

The PageRank Problem

The thesis is the result of a bachelor research project about Google's PageRank. An analysis of the hyperlink structure of the World Wide Web is made and a model for web surfing studied. Based on this model, some standard methods to compute the PageRank of web pages is investigated. Special attention is given to computing PageRanks by using...
