Pattern-based design, the use of design pattern during the design process, has become widely used in the object-oriented community because of the reuse benefits that take less cost and effort, but result in high quality ...

Silicon (Si) and gallium arsenide (GaAs) devices have limitations for certain applications such as high-power and/or high-frequency due to their material properties. As a partial fulfillment of the requirements for the ...

A classic approach to power spectrum estimation is to apply a time domain window to a signal and then compute the discrete Fourier transform (DFT). The window provides a trade o between the resolution of the estimator, ...

Optical-fluorescence imaging provides molecular specificity and spatio-temporal resolution necessary for noninvasive imaging of cellular interactions and bio-electrical activity. However, these techniques suffer from limited ...

This research considers a military maintenance planning and scheduling problem posed by the Army Materiel Systems Analysis Activity (AMSAA). The problem requires that we assign each of a large set of military equipment ...

The context for this research proposal is an area of work that seeks to replace the current state of access-control for email, in which an arbitrary message sender enjoys unregulated \append" access to message recipient's ...

The computing industry has constantly struggled between speed and power. To achieve the desired performance cores are becoming larger and more complicated. This of course comes at the cost of higher area and power consumption, ...

Discrete event systems (DES's) are well established models in what can now be con- sidered their traditional applications such as manufacturing systems, air tra c and other transportation systems, and computer networks ...

In this paper, a traffic forecasting approach based on graph convolutional networks is proposed to learn the effect of maintenance downtime on the surrounding area. Since inappropriate construction can lead to traffic ...
