12. A Study of Page-Based Memory Allocation Policies for the Argo Distributed Shared Memory System
University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för informationsteknologiAbstract : Software distributed shared memory (DSM) systems have been one of the main areas of research in the high-performance computing community. One of the many implementations of such systems is Argo, a page-based, user-space DSM, built on top of MPI. READ MORE

13. A scalable species-based genetic algorithm for reinforcement learning
University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)Abstract : Existing methods in Reinforcement Learning (RL) that rely on gradient estimates suffer from the slow rate of convergence, poor sample efficiency, and computationally expensive training, especially when dealing with complex real-world problems with a sizable dimensionality of the state and action space. In this work, we attempt to leverage the benefits of evolutionary computation as a competitive, scalable, and gradient-free alternative to training deep neural networks for RL-specific problems.

15. Towards the Use of Satellite Data in Security Policy-Related Prediction
University essay from Uppsala universitet/Avdelningen för visuell information och interaktionAbstract : Inadequate economic data makes it more difficult for its incorporation in security-policy related prediction and there is a need for alternative datasets. Satellite data, more specifically nighttime lights data, can be used as a proxy for the economy. READ MORE
