Assessing the Influence of Aggregates and Cement Type on the Properties of Roller-compacted Concrete
Abstract: Roller-compacted concrete (RCC) pavement is suitable for heavy traffic and harsh environment. In the present investigation, RCC slab samples have been prepared using two types of aggregates (crushed and rounded), and two types of cement binder (ordinary Portland and sulphate resistant). Cubes and beam specimens have been extracted from the slab samples with the aid of diamond saw. Specimens were tested for bulk density, ultrasound pulse velocity, compressive and flexural …

Parallel Privacy-Preserving Adaptive Federated Learning on GPU-Enabled Multi-Core Architectures
Abstract: The increasing deployment of parallel and distributed intelligent systems has intensified the need for privacy-preserving learning frameworks that can exploit multi-core and GPU-based architectures without centralizing sensitive data. This work proposes a parallel Adaptive Federated Learning (AFL) framework that integrates Differential Privacy and Secure Aggregation over heterogeneous multi-core and GPU platforms to enhance both data confidentiality and convergence efficiency. The framework dynamically adjusts client participation, learning rates, and aggregation weights …
