Abstract This paper presents a comprehensive exploration into the integration of Internet of Things (IoT), big data analysis, cloud computing, and Artificial Intelligence (AI), which has led to an unprecedented era of connectivity. We delve into the emerging trend of machine learning on embedded devices, enabling tasks in resource-limited environments. However, the widespread adoption of machine learning raises significant privacy concerns, necessitating the development of privacy-preserving techniques. One such technique, secure multi-party computation (MPC), allows collaborative computations without exposing private inputs. Despite its potential, complex protocols and communication interactions hinder performance, especially on resource-constrained devices. Efforts… More >

Abstract We proposed an improved graphics processing unit (GPU) acceleration approach for three-dimensional structural topology optimization using the element-free Galerkin (EFG) method. This method can effectively eliminate the race condition under parallelization. We established a structural topology optimization model by combining the EFG method and the solid isotropic microstructures with penalization model. We explored the GPU parallel algorithm of assembling stiffness matrix, solving discrete equation, analyzing sensitivity, and updating design variables in detail. We also proposed a node pair-wise method for assembling the stiffness matrix and a node-wise method for sensitivity analysis to eliminate race conditions More >
