Algorithms for mutual exclusion
TLDR
The problem of mutual exclusion - or of defining fundamental operations so that it is possible to resolve conflicts resulting from several concurrent processes sharing the resources of a computer system - has emerged over the last 20 years as a prime example of the difficulties associated with parallel or distributed programming.

Valuable Theoretical Lessons Learned From the Application of Metamodels to a Variety of Industrial Problems
TLDR
Metamodeling techniques are now being widely used by many industries to replace complex and expensive simulation models so that optimization and probabilistic design studies can be done in a more practical and affordable way. Expand

Gaussian Process Meta-Models for Efficient Probabilistic Design in Complex Engineering Design Spaces
Probabilistic design in complex design spaces is often a computationally expensive and difficult task because of the highly nonlinear and noisy nature of those spaces. Approximate probabilistic… Expand
