Technical Report ORNL/TM-2009/165

Abstract: Radio signal strength estimation is essential in many applications, including the design of military radio communications and industrial wireless installations. While classical approaches such as finite difference methods are well-known, new event-based models of radio signal propagation have been recently shown to deliver such estimates faster (via serial execution) than other methods. For scenarios with large or richly-featured geographical volumes however, parallel processing is required to meet the memory and computation time demands. Here, we present a scalable and efficient parallel execution of a recently-developed event-based radio signal propagation model. We demonstrate its scalability to thousands of processors, with parallel speedups over 1000?. The speed and scale achieved by our parallel execution enable larger scenarios and faster execution than has ever been reported before.





Perfect Reversal of Rejection Sampling Methods for First-Passage-Time and Similar Probability Distributions

Technical Report ORNL/TM-2009/182

Abstract: We present a perfectly reversible method for bi-directional generation of samples from computationally complex probability distributions. While the previously best-known procedures consume memory proportional to the length of execution between changes of execution direction, here we present a scheme to completely eliminate the memory overhead. Our solution affords two important features, namely determinism and repeatability, across arbitrarily spaced changes of direction (and arbitrary number of samples) along the sample stream. We illustrate the perfect reversal method with first passage time distributions that appear in physical system models, and present its implementation and verification in FORTRAN.
