The most important part of parallel computation is communication. Except in the most embarassingly parallel examples, processors cannot work cooperatively to solve a problem unless they can communicate. One way to solve the problem of communication is to use an interconnection network. Processors are located at nodes of the network,...
The objective of this research was to evaluate the duration of load factor for
metal-plate-connected (MPC) truss joints subjected to various cyclic loading conditions.
Heel and tension-splice joints from a standard 30-foot span Fink truss constructed from
nominal 2x4 Douglas-fir lumber were tested. A testing frame similar to that developed...

The AFS recommends that catch information be collected on a species-specific...
