Section Conclusions. ‌ We have performed an in-depth scalability study of both Tree and Root Parallelizations of the MCTS algorithm on the Xeon CPU and the Xeon Phi for the game of Hex. It is the first large-scale (up to 240 threads and 61 cores) study of Tree Parallelization on a real shared-memory many-core machine. Contrary to previous results [EM10], we show that the effect of using data locks is not a limiting factor on the performance of a Tree Parallelization for 16 threads on the Xeon CPU and 64 threads on the Xeon Phi. To understand the reason for this low performance we performed a detailed xxx- ing analysis to find out where the most time of the algorithm has been spent in the selection step, expansion step, playout step, or update step. For the Hex board size of 11 × 11, MCTS spends most of its time in the playout phase. This phase of the algorithm is problem dependent, for example, it is different for Go and Hex; the dif- xxxxxxx is even different for distinct board sizes. In our program, around 80% of the total execution time for performing a move is spent in the playout phase. Since the playout phase dominates execution time of each thread, the Xeon CPU outperforms the Xeon Phi significantly because of more powerful cores. No method for vectorization has been devised for the playout phase. Therefore, for the current ratio of Xeon CPU cores versus Xeon Phi cores (24 versus 61), it is not possible to reach the same performance on the Xeon Phi because each core of the Xeon CPU is more powerful than each core of the Xeon Phi for sequential execution. From these results, we may conclude that for the current ratio of Xeon CPU cores versus Xeon Phi cores, the parallel MCTS algorithms for games such as Hex or Go on the Xeon Phi have a limitation. Therefore, it is interesting to investigate the limitation problem in the other domains in which MCTS has been successful such as those mentioned in [vdHPKV13].

  • – OTHER SPECIAL CONDITIONS The following additional special conditions apply to this agreement:

  • FALSE STATEMENTS CONCERNING HIGHWAY PROJECTS T h i s p r o v i s i o n i s applicable to all Federal-aid construction contracts and to all related subcontracts. In order to assure high quality and durable construction in conformity with approved plans and specifications and a high degree of reliability on statements and representations made by engineers, contractors, suppliers, and workers on Federal- aid highway projects, it is essential that all persons concerned with the project perform their functions as carefully, thoroughly, and honestly as possible. Willful falsification, distortion, or misrepresentation with respect to any facts related to the project is a violation of Federal law. To prevent any misunderstanding regarding the seriousness of these and similar acts, Form FHWA-1022 shall be posted on each Federal-aid highway project (23 CFR 635) in one or more places where it is readily available to all persons concerned with the project: 18 U.S.C. 1020 reads as follows: "Whoever, being an officer, agent, or employee of the United States, or of any State or Territory, or whoever, whether a person, association, firm, or corporation, knowingly makes any false statement, false representation, or false report as to the character, quality, quantity, or cost of the material used or to be used, or the quantity or quality of the work performed or to be performed, or the cost thereof in connection with the submission of plans, maps, specifications, contracts, or costs of construction on any highway or related project submitted for approval to the Secretary of Transportation; or Whoever knowingly makes any false statement, false representation, false report or false claim with respect to the character, quality, quantity, or cost of any work performed or to be performed, or materials furnished or to be furnished, in connection with the construction of any highway or related project approved by the Secretary of Transportation; or Whoever knowingly makes any false statement or false representation as to material fact in any statement, certificate, or report submitted pursuant to provisions of the Federal-aid Roads Act approved July 1, 1916, (39 Stat. 355), as amended and supplemented; Shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than 5 years or both."

  • Financial Conditions Section 4.01.
