After the fixture was sealed within the bell jar, the Margherita 2 underwent bakeout and a test seal on a one-inch tile. Following this small success, a larger project of sealing a larger tile during cesiation launched in the final week of the author's summer in the LAPPD Lab. Central to the ability to control these processes is the ability to monitor temperatures, pressures, and RGA plots as well as adjust heating inputs accurately and timely. This report documents the heating procedures, basic sealing cycle, and plotting past events or in real-time with the Margherita 2 infrastructure.

Now in its third year, the STEM Fellowship Big Data Challenge is a competition that helps high school students get excited about Data Science and its potential to support inquiry-based learning and problem solving.

Through the modification of the kernel on a Ubuntu system, we managed to solve the n-Queens problem after changing the default time-slice, swappiness, latency and wakeup-granularity to different values and testing the problem.

Note on problem solving

The Linux kernel controls the way tasks (or processes) are managed in the running system. The task scheduler, sometimes called process scheduler, is the part of the kernel that decides which task to run next. In this project its analyzed the behavior of scheduler by changing a default value from the runtime scheduling. The default value is 950000µs, or 0.95 seconds for the sched\_rt\_runtime\_us or scheduler realtime running variable. Meaning that 5% of the CPU time is reserved for processes that don't run under a real-time or deadline scheduling policy. This value in this file specifies how much of the "period" time can be used by all real-time and deadline scheduled processes on the system. The AIO-Stress which shows the obtained results in the different tests is an a-synchronous I/O benchmark created by SuSE which is is a German Linux distribution provider and business unit of Novell, Inc.
