Mapping rule-based systems onto multicomputers using simulated annealing

In this paper, we present a static load balancing method for mapping production rules in an expert system onto processors of a message-passing multicomputer. The method uses simulated annealing to achieve a nearly optimal allocation of production rules onto processor nodes. The approach balances the initial rule distribution to avoid higher communication demand among processor nodes at run time. A formal mapping model is developed and a new cost function is defined for the annealing process. New heuristic swap functions and cooling policies are provided to ensure the quality of the annealing process. A software load balancing package, SIMAL, was implemented on a SUN workstation to carry out the benchmark experiments. The overhead associated with this mapping method is O(m In m), where m is the number of rules in the production system. Two benchmark production systems, Toru-waltz and Tourney, are mapped onto a hypercube computer with 32 nodes. Experimental benchmark results verify the effectiveness of the rule mapping method. The method can be applied for distributed artificial intelligence processing or for the parallel execution of cooperating expert systems on a message-passing multicomputer.     

Hydrogen Permeation and Diffusion in Amorphous Alloy Ni_(68)Cr7_Si_8B_(14)Fe_3 at Elevated Temperature

The behaviour of hydrogen permeation and diffusion in amorphous alloy Ni68Cr7Si8B14Fe3 hasbeen investigated by an ultrahigh vacuum gas permeation technique. A comparison experimentwas carried out between the as-quenched and annealed States (400℃/2h) of the amorphousalloy. The results show that, for both states of the amorphous alloy in the temperature rangeof 200～350℃, the diffusivity and permeability of hydrogen are in agreement with Arrheniusrelationship, there does not exist H-trapping effect, and the activation energies of diffusion andpermeation almost keep the same.     

Incremental iron overload during reperfusion progressively augments oxidative injury

OBJECTIVE: To determine if a relationship exists between the extent of iron-catalyzed injury and the degree of tissue iron overload during reperfusion. METHODS: To selectively increase tissue iron only during early reperfusion, isolated, buffer perfused rabbit hearts were exposed to 20 microM Fe(2+)-100 microM ADP during the last 3 minutes of ischemia and the initial 4 minutes of reperfusion. Control groups were exposed to ADP and iron-ADP regimens that did not increase intracellular iron. All the hearts received 30 minutes of normothermic global ischemia and 30 minutes of reperfusion. Heart function was monitored continuously throughout each experiment. Tissue iron and biochemical markers were analyzed at the end of experiments. RESULTS: Hemodynamic recovery was decreased and tissue lipid peroxide levels were increased in the 20 microM Fe(2+)-100 microM ADP group compared to controls. The recoveries of developed pressure and positive/negative dP/dT at 30 minutes of reperfusion were negatively correlated with tissue iron levels, while cytosol and membrane lipid peroxide levels correlated positively with the iron levels during reperfusion. CONCLUSION: The extent of oxidative injury during reperfusion was directly related to the tissue iron burden present during reperfusion. Increased lipid peroxidation was the principal chemical marker of iron-catalyzed injury.
