The success of Deep Artificial Neural Networks (DNNs) in many domains created a rich body of research concerned with hardware accelerators for compute-intensive DNN operators. However, implementing such operators efficiently with complex hardware intrinsics such as matrix multiply is a task not yet automated gracefully. Solving this task often requires joint program and data layout transformations. First solutions to this problem have been proposed, such as TVM, UNIT, or ISAMIR, which work on a loop-level representation of operators and specify data layout and possible program transformations before the embedding into the operator is performed. This top-down approach creates a tension between exploration range and search space complexity, especially when also exploring data layout transformations such as im2col, channel packing, or padding. In this work, we propose a new approach to this problem. We created a bottom-up method that allows the joint transformation of both computation and data layout based on the found embedding. By formulating the embedding as a constraint satisfaction problem over the scalar dataflow, every possible embedding solution is contained in the search space. Adding additional constraints and optimization targets to the solver generates the subset of preferable solutions. An evaluation using the VTA hardware accelerator with the Baidu DeepBench inference benchmark shows that our approach can automatically generate code competitive to reference implementations. Further, we show that dynamically determining the data layout based on intrinsic and workload is beneficial for hardware utilization and performance. In cases where the reference implementation has low hardware utilization due to its fixed deployment strategy, we achieve a geomean speedup of up to × 2.813, while individual operators can improve as much as × 170.

ABSTRACT: This study aims to identify the business processes of the Tobacco Products Industry for cigarettes as well as to review and evaluate the implementation of the Joint Program conducted by DJP-DJBC. Using a combination of semi-structured and in-depth interviews with participant of Joint Program along with descriptive analysis of implementation data, it produces empirical evidence that synergies between agencies can contribute more to tax revenues. Implications for the Ministry of Finance to maintain and expand the scope of positive synergies between agencies that have an intersection area to escalate nation's prosperity. Keywords: joint program, IHT cigarettes, tax compliance, tax audit, tax invoice ABSTRAK: Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengenali proses bisnis Industri Hasil Tembakau (IHT) rokok serta mengulas dan mengevaluasi pelaksanaan Joint Program DJP-DJBC pada industri tersebut. Penelitian ini menggunakan kombinasi wawancara kepada pelaku Joint Program DJP-DJBC beserta analisis deskriptif data implementasi, menghasilkan bukti empiris bahwa sinergi antarinstansi dapat memberikan kontribusi lebih terhadap penerimaan perpajakan. Implikasi bagi Kemenkeu untuk tetap mempertahankan sekaligus memperluas cakupan sinergi positif antarinstansi yang mempunyai irisan dalam ruang lingkup pekerjaan demi terwujudnya kemakmuran bangsa. Kata Kunci: joint program, IHT rokok, kepatuhan pajak, pemeriksaan pajak, faktur pajak

This project is a visual expression of my observations about gender within western culture. My photographic practice is conducted within and mediated by significant beliefs about gender and, in turn, provides ideological support for how I relate to society. Acknowledging that I photograph from a female perspective I photographed both male and female subjects of different genders and races using a 35mm camera with a wideangle lens. I captured images that helped me reflect on my own practice as a photographer. My images can be viewed as individual photographs or as a set. Factors, such as my cultural background, social status, religious beliefs, and level of comfort with my own sexuality, influenced my photographic practice and so will inevitably affect how viewers respond to my images. How I feel about identity construction permeates through out my image making process. As a photographer in the Ryerson University and York University joint program of Communication and Culture exploring different theoretical frameworks undoubtedly affected my studio practice as I gained more knowledge and became more self-reflective. I accept as photographer that my images will not have a fixed meaning but I do intend them to evoke feelings. Since I discovered Henri Cartier-Bresson's work as a young teenager I have always had a profound respect for his abilities and his methodology. Although I would never begin to align my work with a master photographer with regards to quality I have always aspired to his greatness. Robert Frank and Eugene Richards also have inspired me during this Masters project. My more recent appreciation of their work reinforces my belief that there will always be a place for striking 'documentary' style photographs taken on film and printed on fiber based paper by the hand of one whom feels the call ofthe traditional darkroom.

<p>The NASA/ESA Joint Program Planning Group (JPPG) subgroup on satellite calibration/validation was created to facilitate coordinated efforts between ESA, NASA, and their respective investigator communities to enhance calibration and/or validation activities for current and/or future satellite missions. The cooperation enabled through this activity includes airborne campaigns, use of surface-based measurements, and satellite-to-satellite intercomparisons. Numerous examples of such activities exist over the ten years of the JPPG. In this talk, examples of calibration/validation focused activities, accomplishments, and future plans will be presented. A particular focus will be on how the COVID-19 pandemic has affected field work planned for 2020 and 2021.  The JPPG subgroup also includes joint European-US studies of satellite results that integrate the results of both parties’ observational capabilities, and the status of those activities will be presented as well.</p>

Abstract Faculty will focus on the biology of aging as a contributor to the vulnerability in COVID-19. Faculty will present the latest concepts and insights that will advance our ability to confront this global outbreak. Our goal for this session is to connect with the concept of Geroscience and how ideas from aging biology research can be incorporated to improve outcomes and informed practice. Although the emphasis is on biology, the goal is to provide insight in a manner that is readily accessible to researchers across the aging spectrum that they might translate these ideas in the face of a very real-world challenge.

From 1947–1972, the Joint Arctic Weather Stations (JAWS) program transformed Canada’s High Arctic. This article focuses on Canada’s aspirations to “Canadianize” the joint program from the late 1940s to the late 1960s. Both Canada and the United States questioned the extent and form of American involvement in the JAWS program intermittently over 25 years of joint operations. Was Canadianization of these remote weather stations necessary or practical? This article concludes that, in retrospect, the conventional, dominant narrative that emphasizes the ongoing American threat to Canada’s Arctic sovereignty seems misplaced with respect to the JAWS story.
