A computational market model based on individual action

Abstract: There has been much recent interest in studying the implications of economic behavior by simulating markets. For example, the group at the University of Arizona used the PLATO computer network to conduct laboratory experiments with double auctions using human participants. More recent results from a double auction tournament with computer trading programs is reported by Rust et al. Smith gives an overview of the literature on experimental economics. Work at Xerox PARC uses market-based ideas to allocate computer resources (see Huberman and Hogg, Waldspurger et al., for example). The term "computational ecology" has been used to describe this emerging field. Finally, recent work at Cal Tech by Ledyard et al. and Porter and Rangel uses computerized exchange mechanisms to allocate resources in a space exploration project.

When can solitons compute

Abstract: We explore the possibility of using soliton interactions in a one-dimensional bulk medium as a basis for a new kind of computer. Such a structure is gateless” { all computations are determined by an input stream of solitons. Intuitively, the key requirement for accomplishing this is that soliton collisions be nonoblivious; that is, solitons should transfer state information during collisions. All the well known systems described by integrable partial di erential equations (PDEs) { the Korteweg-de Vries, sine-Gordon, cubic nonlinear Schrodinger, and perhaps all integrable systems { are oblivious when displacement or phase is used as state. We present a cellular automaton (CA) model, the oblivious soliton machine (OSM), which captures the interaction of solitons in systems described by such integrable PDEs. We then prove that OSMs with either quiescent or periodic backgrounds can do only computation that requires time at most cubic in the input size, and thus are far from being computationuniversal. Next, we de ne a more general class of CA, soliton machines (SMs), which describe systems with more complex interactions. We show that an SM with a quiescent background can have at least the computational power of a nite-tape Turing machine, whereas an SM with a periodic background can be universal. The search for useful nonintegrable (and nonoblivious) systems is challenging: We must rely on numerical solution, collisions may be at best only near-elastic, and collision elasticity and nonobliviousness may be antagonistic qualities. As a step in this direction, we show that the logarithmically nonlinear Schrodinger equation (log-NLS) supports quasi-solitons (gaussons) whose collisions are, in fact, very near-elastic and strongly nonoblivious. It is an open question whether there is a physical system that realizes a computation-universal soliton machine.

Functional algorithm simulation of the fast multipole method : Architectural implications

Abstract: Functional Algorithm Simulation is a methodology for predicting the computation and communication characteristics of parallel algorithms for a class of scientific problems, without actually performing the expensive numerical computations involved. In this paper, we use Functional Algorithm Simulation to study the parallel Fast Multipole Method (FMM), which solves the N-body problem. Functional Algorithm Simulation provides us with useful information regarding communication patterns in the algorithm, the variation of available parallelism during different algorithmic phases, and upper bounds on available speedups for different problem sizes. Furthermore, it allows us to predict the performance of the FMM on message-passing multiprocessors with topologies such as cliques, hypercubes, rings, and multirings, over a wider range of problem sizes and numbers of processors than would be feasible by direct simulation. Our simulations show that an implementation of the FMM on low-cost, scalable ring or multiring architectures can attain satisfactory performance.

Relative computational power of integrable and nonintegrable soliton systems

Abstract: The present document is devoted to the question of whether eff ective computation can be performed by the interaction of solitons [24, 34] in a bulk medium. The resulting computational system would fulfi ll the promise of To oli’s “programmable matter” [42] | off ering computation that is very close to the underlying physics, and therefore potentially providing ultra-scale parallel processing.
