GPHS-RTG launch accident analysis for Galileo and Ulysses
AIP Conference Proceedings, 1991This paper presents the safety program conducted to determine the response of the General Purpose Heat Source (GPHS) Radioisotope Thermoelectric Generator (RTG) to potential launch accidents of the Space Shuttle for the Galileo and Ulysses missions. The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) provided definition of the Shuttle potential ...

Program management approach for the GPHS-RTG program
AIP Conference Proceedings, 1995The development and delivery of the power sources for the Galileo mission to explore Jupiter and the Ulysses mission to explore the Polar regions of the Sun presented a number of technical and management challenges to the spacecraft power community. This paper explores the relationships between the government, industry, and the national laboratories ...

The Multi-architecture Performance of the Parallel Functional Language GpH
2000In principle, functional languages promise straightforward architecture-independent parallelism, because of their high level descrip- tion of parallelism, dynamic management of parallelism and deterministic semantics. However, these language features come at the expense of a so- phisticated compiler and/or runtime-system.

Response of the GPHS/RTG system to potential launch accident environments
AIP Conference Proceedings, 1998The Cassini spacecraft is designed to carry out an orbital tour of the Saturnian system and an investigation of the planet, its satellites, atmosphere, and its ring system. The space vehicle is powered by three Radioisotope Thermoelectric Generators (RTGs) which are mounted normal to the thrust axis of the vehicle.

Production of general purpose heat source (GPHS) using advanced manufacturing methods
AIP Conference Proceedings, 1996Mankind will continue to explore the stars through the use of unmanned space craft until the technology and costs are compatible with sending travelers to the outer planets of our solar system and beyond. Unmanned probes of the present and future will be necessary to develop the necessary technologies and obtain information that will make this travel ...

GPH: An Efficient and Effective Perfect Hashing Scheme for GPU Architectures
Proceedings of the ACM on Management of DataHash tables are widely used to support fast lookup operations for various applications on key-value stores and relational databases. In recent years, hash tables have been significantly improved by utilizing the high memory bandwidth and large parallelism degree offered by Graphics Processing Units (GPUs).
