Our screening strategy was based on the size of band gaps, the values of hole effective masses, and p-type dopability. Our search led to the identification of seven promising compounds (IrSbS, Ba2GeSe4, Ba2SiSe4, Ba(BSe3)2, VCu3S4, NbCu3Se4, and CuBS2) as potential TCM candidates.

The roles of intrinsic defects and extrinsic dopants are investigated to probe the p-type performance of these semiconductors.

Following the idea of Approximate Computing, we allow imprecision in the final result in order to utilize the sparsity of the input matrix and to allow massively parallel execution. For an n x n matrix, the proposed algorithm allows to distribute the calculations over n nodes with only little communication overhead. The result matrix exhibits the same sparsity pattern as the input matrix, allowing for efficient reuse of allocated data structures. We evaluate the algorithm with respect to the error that it introduces into calculated results, as well as its performance and scalability. We demonstrate that the error is relatively limited for well-conditioned matrices and that results are still valuable for error-resilient applications like preconditioning even for ill-conditioned matrices. We discuss the execution time and scaling of the algorithm on a theoretical level and present a distributed implementation of the algorithm using MPI and OpenMP. We demonstrate the scalability of this implementation by running it on a high-performance compute cluster comprised of 1024 CPU cores, showing a speedup of 665x compared to single-threaded execution.}}, author = {{Lass, Michael and Mohr, Stephan and Wiebeler, Hendrik and Kühne, Thomas and Plessl, Christian}}, booktitle = {{Proc.

In particular, we focus on model transformation by example. The definition and implementation of model transformations is a task frequently carried out by domain experts, hence, a (semi-)automatic approach is desirable. This application is challenging because the underlying search space has rich semantics, is high-dimensional, and unstructured. Hence, a computationally brute-force approach would be unscalable and potentially infeasible. To address that problem, we develop a sophisticated approach of designing complex mutation operators. We define ‘patterns’ for constructing mutation operators and report a successful case study. Furthermore, the code of the evolved model transformation is required to have high maintainability and extensibility, that is, the code should be easily readable by domain experts. We report an evaluation of this approach in a software engineering case study.}}, author = {{Kühne, Thomas and Hamann, Heiko and Arifulina, Svetlana and Engels, Gregor}}, booktitle = {{Proceedings of the 19th European Conference on Genetic Programming (EuroGP 2016)}}, pages = {{278----293}}, title = {{{Patterns for Constructing Mutation Operators: Limiting the Search Space in a Software Engineering Application}}}, doi = {{10.1007/978-3-319-30668-1_18}}, year = {{2016}}, } @article{15734, author = {{Ghorbani, Elaheh and Kiss, Janos and Mirhosseini, Hossein and Schmidt, Markus and Windeln, Johannes and Kühne, Thomas and Felser, Claudia}}, issn = {{1932-7447}}, journal = {{The Journal of Physical Chemistry C}}, pages = {{2064--2069}}, title = {{{Insights into Intrinsic Defects and the Incorporation of Na and K in the Cu2ZnSnSe4 Thin-Film Solar Cell Material from Hybrid-Functional Calculations}}}, doi = {{10.1021/acs.jpcc.5b11022}}, year = {{2016}}, } @article{45766, author = {{John, Christopher and Spura, Thomas and Kühne, Thomas D.}}, journal = {{Phys.
