Oscillator made of an LC circuit.
Founded partly due to the influence of Edward Teller who thought Los Alamos National Laboratory was not making good progress on thermonuclear weapons, large part of which was developed there.
Publicly released documents from the Los Alamos National Laboratory are marked with this identifier. This is for example the case of each video on ther YouTube channel: www.youtube.com/@LosAlamosNationalLab. E.g. Video "Historic, unique Manhattan Project footage from Los Alamos by Los Alamos National Lab" is marked with "LA-UR 11-4449".
www.osti.gov/biblio/1372821 contains "How to Get an LA-UR: Using RASSTI to Release Your Work" which is of interest: permalink.lanl.gov/object/tr?what=info:lanl-repo/lareport/LA-UR-17-26023. That document documents the acronym's expansion, plus it leaks some internal-only URLs such as lasearch.lanl.gov/oppie/service.
TODO is there somewhere you can search for the document for a given identifier? Some PDFs are listed at: sgp.fas.org/othergov/doe/lanl/index2b.html

Google's quantum hardware/software effort.
The "AI" part is just prerequisite buzzword of the AI boom era for any project and completely bullshit.
According to job postings such as: archive.ph/wip/Fdgsv their center is in Goleta, California, near Santa Barbara. Though Google tends to promote it more as Santa Barbara, see e.g. Daniel's t-shirt at Video "Building a quantum computer with superconducting qubits by Daniel Sank (2019)".
One reasonable and memorable approximation excluding any fine structure is:see for example example: hydrogen 1-2 spectral line.
The algorithmically minded will have noticed that paging requires associative array (like Java
Map
of Python dict()
) abstract data structure where:- the keys are linear pages addresses, thus of integer type
- the values are physical page addresses, also of integer type
The single level paging scheme uses a simple array implementation of the associative array:and in C pseudo-code it looks like this:
- the keys are the array index
- this implementation is very fast in time
- but it is too inefficient in memory
linear_address[0] = physical_address_0
linear_address[1] = physical_address_1
linear_address[2] = physical_address_2
...
linear_address[2^20-1] = physical_address_N
But there another simple associative array implementation that overcomes the memory problem: an (unbalanced) k-ary tree.
A K-ary tree, is just like a binary tree, but with K children instead of 2.
Using a K-ary tree instead of an array implementation has the following trade-offs:
- it uses way less memory
- it is slower since we have to de-reference extra pointers
In C-pseudo code, a 2-level K-ary tree with and we have the following arrays:and it still contains
K = 2^10
looks like this:level0[0] = &level1_0[0]
level1_0[0] = physical_address_0_0
level1_0[1] = physical_address_0_1
...
level1_0[2^10-1] = physical_address_0_N
level0[1] = &level1_1[0]
level1_1[0] = physical_address_1_0
level1_1[1] = physical_address_1_1
...
level1_1[2^10-1] = physical_address_1_N
...
level0[N] = &level1_N[0]
level1_N[0] = physical_address_N_0
level1_N[1] = physical_address_N_1
...
level1_N[2^10-1] = physical_address_N_N
- one
directory
, which has2^10
elements. Each element contains a pointer to a page table array. - up to 2^10
pagetable
arrays. Each one has2^10
4 byte page entries.
2^10 * 2^10 = 2^20
possible keys.K-ary trees can save up a lot of space, because if we only have one key, then we only need the following arrays:
- one
directory
with 2^10 entries - one
pagetable
atdirectory[0]
with 2^10 entries - all other
directory[i]
are marked as invalid, don't point to anything, and we don't allocatepagetable
for them at all
