In the same way, computer algorithms that send data from one process to another when the data becomes available will be more efficient than one that is requested when it will be used. To facilitate designing such algorithms within the Global Arrays programming model framework, DOE researchers at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory designed a new put_notify capability that allows a process to initiate and complete data to another process without synchronization. The novel feature is a notify element that the receiving process can use to asynchronously determine the completion of the data transfer. ]]>Tue, 26 Feb 2013 00:00:00 PSThttp://www.pnnl.gov/science/highlights/highlight.asp?id=1305Mon, 18 Feb 2013 00:00:00 PSThttp://www.pnnl.gov/science/highlights/highlight.asp?id=1289Thu, 07 Feb 2013 00:00:00 PSThttp://www.pnnl.gov/science/highlights/highlight.asp?id=1286Tue, 29 Jan 2013 00:00:00 PSThttp://www.pnnl.gov/science/highlights/highlight.asp?id=1284Fri, 25 Jan 2013 00:00:00 PSThttp://www.pnnl.gov/science/highlights/highlight.asp?id=1281Results:  When is the plague not the plague? When it’s a different strain of the same bacteria. In two strains of the bacteria genus Yersinia —a highly lethal pathogen and its less-virulent form—scientists performed multi-omic analyses to gain insights how they differ. They found that how the genes in both are expressed contribute to the striking difference in the diseases caused by these pathogens. The research team included scientists from Pacific Northwest National Laboratory, the J. Craig Venter Institute, and the University of Texas Medical Branch. ]]>Tue, 22 Jan 2013 00:00:00 PST
