Abstract: Disclosed is a method and system for modeling invariant relationships between flow intensity measurements in a distributed system. In the method, a measurement is randomly selected from a plurality of flow intensity measurements. The method searched for relationships between the randomly selected measurement and each remaining one of the plurality of flow intensity measurements, and each of the flow intensity measurements having a relationship with the randomly selected measurement is grouped into a cluster with the randomly selected measurement. The method than determines relationships between all of the flow intensity measurements in the cluster. This method is repeated with the remaining flow intensity measurements until all of the flow intensity measurements are grouped into a cluster.

Abstract: A computer implemented method for modeling and verifying concurrent systems which uses Satisfiability-Modulo Theory (SMT)-based Bounded Model Checking (BMC) to detect violations of safety properties such as data races. A particularly distinguishing aspect of our inventive method is that we do not introduce wait-cycles in our symbolic models for the individual threads, which are typically required for considering an interleaved execution of the threads. These wait-cycles are detrimental to the performance of BMC. Instead, we first create independent models for the different threads, and add inter-model constraints lazily, incrementally, and on-the-fly during BMC unrolling to capture the sequential consistency and synchronization semantics. We show that our constraints provide a sound and complete modeling with respect to the considered semantics. One benefit of our lazy modeling method is the reduction in the size of the BMC problem instances, thereby, improving the verification performance in both runtime and memory.

Abstract translation: 一种用于建模和验证并发系统的计算机实现方法，其使用基于可信性 - 模理论（SMT）的有界模型检查（BMC）来检测诸如数据竞赛之类的安全属性的违规。 我们的创造性方法的特别区别在于，我们不在针对各个线程的符号模型中引入等待周期，这通常是考虑线程的交错执行所需要的。 这些等待周期对BMC的性能是不利的。 相反，我们首先为不同的线程创建独立的模型，并在BMC展开期间懒洋洋地，逐步地和即时地添加模型间约束，以捕获顺序一致性和同步语义。 我们显示我们的约束提供了一个关于所考虑的语义的完整的建模。 我们的懒惰建模方法的一个好处是减少了BMC问题实例的大小，从而提高了运行时和内存中的验证性能。

Abstract: Methods and apparatus are disclosed for applying successive multi-rank beamforming strategies (e.g., successive precoding strategies) for the design of precoders over a set of parallel channels. Successive beamforming is applied to a narrow band channel model and is also applied for finer quantization of a single beamforming vector (e.g., recursive beamforming). A first embodiment provides the optimal approach with high complexity. An alternative embodiment provides successive beamforming for near optimal precoding selection with medium complexity. A low complexity method for precoder selection is also provided wherein a channel representative matrix for the set of parallel channels is determined and successive beamforming on the calculated channel representative is applied.
