First lattice study of semileptonic decays of Λ b and Ξ b baryons
K.C. Bowler,Richard Kenway,Laurent Lellouch,J. Nieves,Orlando Oliveira,D. G. Richards,Christopher T. Sachrajda,N. Stella,P. Ueberholz +8 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the results of the first lattice study of semileptonic decays of baryons containing a $b$ quark were given and the Isgur-Wise functions were computed for values of the velocity transfer up to about $\ensuremath{\omega}=1.2$ using the Sheikholeslami-Wohlert action.

Chris Allton,Stephen Booth,K.C. Bowler,M. Foster,Joyce Garden,Alan C. Irving,Richard Kenway,Chris Michael,J. Peisa,Stephen Pickles,James C. Sexton,Z. Sroczynski,M. Talevi,Hartmut Wittig +13 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the first results for the static quark potential and the light hadron spectrum using dynamical fermions at b55.2 were presented using an O(a) improved Wilson fermion action together with the standard Wilson plaquette action for the gauge part.

Concurrency and parallelism in MC and MD simulations in physics
TL;DR: The present DAPs are far from the modern state of the art in fabrication, and future engines of similar design could be made with present technology with a rating well over a Gflop, providing very cost-effective computing.

Large scale applications of transputers in HEP: The Edinburgh concurrent supercomputer project
Stephen Booth,K.C. Bowler,D.J. Candlin,Richard Kenway,Brian Pendleton,A.M. Thornton,D. J. Wallace,J. Blair-Fish,D. Roweth +8 more
TL;DR: The Edinburgh Concurrent Supercomputer Project is built around a Meiko Computing Surface, with presently some 400 floating-point transputers and 1.6 Gbytes of memory.

Exploiting highly concurrent computers for physics
TL;DR: Computational physics as mentioned in this paper is the use of computers to solve problems by simulating theoretical models, which has taken its place alongside theory and experiment during the last 50 years or so.
