GPU accelerated Monte Carlo simulations of lattice spin models
2011
We consider Monte Carlo simulations of classical spin models of statistical mechanics using the massively parallel architecture provided by graphics processing units (GPUs). We discuss simulations of models with discrete and continuous variables, and using an array of algorithms ranging from single-spin flip Metropolis updates over cluster algorithms to multicanonical and Wang-Landau techniques to judge the scope and limitations of GPU accelerated computation in this field. For most simulations discussed, we find significant speed-ups by two to three orders of magnitude as compared to single-threaded CPU implementations.

¿Cómo impulsa la Comunicación Integrada de Marketing la satisfacción del huésped?: una propuesta a través del conocimiento ecológico y la co-creación…
2022
[ES] La creciente necesidad de aumentar la eficacia de las estrategias de comunicación en el sector hotelero impulsa la investigación acerca de cómo es posible intensificar sus efectos. De entre las distintas alternativas, el enfoque CIM basado en la sostenibilidad empieza a adquirir cada vez más importancia. El presente trabajo tiene como objetivo examinar las relaciones entre la CIM para la sostenibilidad, el conocimiento ecológico, la co-creación de valor y la satisfacción. Sobre la base de los efectos en cadena que se investigan, se propone un modelo teórico, que se contrasta a partir de un estudio empírico con una muestra de 303 huéspedes, en hoteles de Kyiv (Ucrania). Los resultados r…
Lexical verbs for medical professionals
2019
In recent years, English has become the lingua franca of medicine and the language teaching profession has seen the emergence of im- plementing English for Medical Purposes (EMP) courses. The needs of EMP learners are very specific and EMP teachers who are language experts and not medical ones need to develop materials that are in line with EMP learners’ specific needs. In response to recognizing EMP students’ needs, extensive corpus-based research has led to specialized medical wordlists (Chen and Ge 2007; Wang, Liang, Ge 2008; Mungra and Canziani 2013; Hsu 2013; Lei and Liu 2016). Such wordlists have given instructors the opportunity to focus on specific vocabulary facil- itating domain s…
Tulkošanas stratēģijas Valsts Centrālās bankas gada pārskata ievadā
2020
Finanšu tulkošana ir ļoti sarežģīts un augsti pieprasīts mūsdienās specializētās tulkošanas veids, kura kvalitāte ir cieši saistīta ar pareizu tulkošanas stratēģiju un rīku izvēli. Lai identificētu tulkošanas pieejas un stratēģijas, kas ir ieteicamās konkrētajā specializētās valodas apakš-žanrā, ir svarīgi izanalizēt labākus šī apakš-žanra tulkojumus. Šī maģistra darba mērķis – ir izpētīt tulkošanas stratēģijas, kas ir visbiežāk pielietotās konkrētā finanšu tulkojumu apakš-žanrā – Valsts Centrālās bankas gada pārskata ievadā. Pētāmo tekstu korpuss tika sastādīts no tādu valsts banku un starptautisko finanšu institūciju kā LB, CBR, ECB un EBRD gada pārskatiem, laika periodā no 2009. līdz 201…
Treatment of Combined Dairy and Domestic Wastewater with Constructed Wetland System in Sicily (Italy). Pollutant Removal Efficiency and Effect of Veg…
2021
Dairy wastewater (DWW) contains large amounts of mineral and organic compounds, which can accumulate in soil and water causing serious environmental pollution. A constructed wetland (CW) is a sustainable technology for the treatment of DWW in small-medium sized farms. This paper reports a two-year study on the performance of a pilot-scale horizontal subsurface flow system for DWW treatment in Sicily (Italy). The CW system covered a total surface area of 100 m2 and treated approximately 6 m3 per day of wastewater produced by a small dairy farm, subsequent to biological treatment. Removal efficiency (RE) of the system was calculated. The biomass production of two emergent macrophytes was dete…
UAV-Assisted Data Collection in Wireless Sensor Networks: A Comprehensive Survey
2021
Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) are usually deployed to different areas of interest to sense phenomena, process sensed data, and take actions accordingly. The networks are integrated with many advanced technologies to be able to fulfill their tasks that is becoming more and more complicated. These networks tend to connect to multimedia networks and to process huge data over long distances. Due to the limited resources of static sensor nodes, WSNs need to cooperate with mobile robots such as unmanned ground vehicles (UGVs), or unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) in their developments. The mobile devices show their maneuverability, computational and energy-storage abilities to support WSNs in mul…

2020
The castle's Hermitage of Yecla (Region of Murcia) constituted during the 13th to 16th centuries the first parish of the population, hosting a triptych-shaped altarpiece presided over by a tempera painting on wood of Our Lady of Humility or "Virgo Lactans", dated around 1370 and attributed to the painter Barnaba da Modena, which was the titular image of the mentioned temple under the title of Our Lady of the Incarnation, until at the end of the 18th century it changed ownership for the Conception of Our Lady. The table at averages of the eight hundred was placed in an a loft, appropriating it at the beginning of the 20th century by the retired military Pascual Spuche y Lacy, who sold it aro…
Alcune osservazioni su recenti provvedimenti legislativi in tema di concessioni demaniali per finalità turistico-ricreative
2021
L’articolo, prendendo le mosse dalla recente legge regionale siciliana n. 32 del 2020, ripercorre le tappe relative alla più recente produzione normativa in tema di concessioni turistico-balneari, alla luce anche dei principi eurounitari (Direttiva Bolkestein, in particolare) e dei conseguenti interventi della Commissione, che ha avviato procedure di infrazione nei confronti dell’Italia. The paper, starting from the recent Sicilian regional law no. 32 of 2020, retraces the steps related to the most recent legislation on the subject of beach concessions for touristic and recreational purposes, also in light of the Euro-unitary principles (Bolkestein Directive, in particular) and the conseque…
