  6. Ratooning for Increased Yield and Reduced Waste

    SBC: JUST GREENS, LLC            Topic: 8130000000000001

    Ratooning is a proven technique that allows one root and stem system to produce multiple harvests.This allows for increased plant yields improved resource efficiency less waste and greatlyimproved unit economics. However ratooning has not been widely adopted in the indoorproduction of leafy greens. This program addresses this gap through research and implementationin the world's largest commercial ...

  10. A Robust, Machine Independent, Software Toolkit for Topology Aware Process Mapping on Distributed Memory HPC Architectures

    SBC: CONTINUUM DYNAMICS INC            Topic: DTRA172002

    A significant performance gap exists between the theoretical number of Floating Point Operations (FLOPS) that an HPC machine is capable of sustaining and the number of FLOPS realized by real-world HPC software. One of the principal reasons for this gap is the parasitic work that computational processes must do to communicate with one another. It has been shown that this communication work can be s ...
