Topology-aware distributed graph processing for tightly-coupled clusters
Get PDFCloud applications have burgeoned over the last few years, but they are typically written for loosely-coupled clusters such as datacenters. In this thesis we investigate how one can run cloud applications in tightly-coupled clusters and network topologies, namely super-computers. Specifically, we look at a class of distributed machine learning systems called distributed graph processing systems, and run them on NCSA Blue Waters. Partitioning the graph is key to achieving performance in distributed graph processing systems. We present new topology-aware partitioning techniques that better exploit the structure of the network topologies in supercomputers. Compared to existing work, our new Restricted Oblivious and Grid Centroid partitioning approaches produce 25-33% improvement in makespan, along with a sizable reduction in network traffic. We also discuss optimizations such as smart network buffers that further amplify the improvement. To help operators select the best graph partitioning technique, we culminate our experimental results into a decision tree.Submission published under a 24 month embargo labeled 'U of I Access', the embargo will last until 2020-05-01The student, Mayank Bhatt, accepted the attached license on 2018-04-23 at 17:13.The student, Mayank Bhatt, submitted this Thesis for approval on 2018-04-23 at 17:20.This Thesis was approved for publication on 2018-04-24 at 15:21.DSpace SAF Submission Ingestion Package generated from Vireo submission #12435 on 2018-08-31 at 17:21:19Made available in DSpace on 2018-09-04T20:36:52Z (GMT).

The Dementia Dilemma in India: Addressing the Care Challenges with a Layered Interventional Model (LIM)
No full textThis project presents a literature review focused on the growing public health challenge of dementia in India. With the aging population increasing rapidly, the burden of dementia-related care is expected to intensify in coming decades. The review examines existing research, health system gaps, and sociocultural challenges related to dementia care across urban and rural settings.
The core contribution of this work is a proposed layered interventional model designed to strengthen dementia care through a combination of community-based services, caregiver support, primary health integration, and policy-level reforms.
The goal of this project is to:
Highlight critical gaps in dementia care infrastructure and awareness
Synthesize research on existing care models and interventions
Propose a strategic, layered approach to improve dementia outcomes in India.

A short glossary of inclusive language. Oceanography, 34(2), (2021), https://doi.org/10.5670/oceanog.2021.207.Words matter—that old adage that many of us may have heard as children,

Drug-Eluting Stents in Multivessel Coronary Artery Disease: Cost Effectiveness and Clinical Outcomes
No full textMultivessel coronary artery disease is more often treated either with coronary artery bypass surgery (CABG) or percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with stenting. The advent of drug-eluting stent (DES) has changed the revascularization strategy, and caused an increase in the use of DES in multivessel disease (MVD), with reduced rate of repeat revascularization compared to conventional bare metal stent. The comparative studies of DES-PCI over CABG have shown comparable safety; however, the rate of major adverse cerebrovascular and cardiac events and repeat revascularization was significantly higher with DES-PCI at long term. In diabetic patients with MVD, concern of repeat revascularization with DES-PCI is persistent. More recent, one-year economic outcomes have reported that the CABG is favored among patients with high angiographic complexity. The higher rate of repeat revascularization with DES-PCI in MVD would lead to increased economic burden on patient at long term besides bearing high cost of DES. In diabetic MVD patients, CABG is associated with having better clinical outcomes and being more cost-effective approach when compared to DES-PCI at long term
Mapping and Visualizing Research of COVID-19 with Immunology: A Bibliometric Study
Get PDFThis paper aims to demonstrate the World’s scientific contribution to COVID-19 and Immunology research for 2020–2022 and the emerging research pattern using various bibliometric parameters. The research publications were
retrieved from the SCOPUS database and analyzed using MS Excel, R Studio, and VOS Viewer software. The VOS Viewer software is mainly used for networking and visualization to understand the research pattern better. A total of 2877 documents were retrieved from SCOPUS using the search topic
COVID-19 and Immunology. The research found that DIAO B was a prolific author in COVID-19 and Immunology research, with 1247 publications. The most productive countries and institutions in this field were the USA (555 publications) and Huazhong university of science and technology (409
publications). The five hot author keywords are COVID-19, Sars-cov-2, Vaccine, Coronavirus and Antibody. The present study provides various networking map of research publications regarding the immune response
during COVID-19 infection. The results benefit researchers and practitioners in India and worldwide for understanding the pattern of research on COVID19 and identifying the potential immune response against SARS-CoV-

A Scientometric Exploration of Global Publications of Yoga Research from 2002-2021
Get PDFThe paper aims to provide an in-depth evaluation of the research output of Yoga for a period of 20 years, from 2002-2021. A total of 3498 documents retrieved from the Web of Science(WoS) database are considered for this analysis. The research finds that Cramer, H. was a most prolific author in Yoga scientific research with the highest 79 publications and top 2980 global citations. The most productive country is the USA, with 23967 publications, followed by India (5822) and Australia (2258). There was a significant increase in publications during the period of study. Most articles were published in the Journal of Alternative and Complementary Medicine. The highest number of Yoga research papers were contributed by two Indian institutions: All India Institute of Medical Sciences and the National Institute of Mental Health and Neuro-Sciences. Cramer H’ published the highest number of papers. The present study will be helpful for other researchers for further studies on Yoga research and policymakers for funding decisions and strategies
