Polynomial matrices over fields and rings provide a unifying framework for many control system design problems. These include dynamic compensator design, infinite dimensional systems, controllers for nonlinear systems, and ...

Kohonen's Learning Vector Quantization (LVQ) is a neural network architecture that performs nonparametric classification. It classifies observations by comparing them to k templates called Voronoi vectors. The locations ...

A discussion of the extensions or modifications required to integrate ATM into hybrid networks, i.e. seamlessly interconnected terrestrial and space, wireline and wireless networks will be presented. In this context, the ...

This paper presents a practical architecture for joint source-channel coding of human visual model-based video transmission over a satellite channel. Perceptual distortion model just-noticeable-distortion (JND) is applied ...

In this paper we present an autocorrelation-based method for estimating the carrier frequency offset of an MPSK signal with random data modulation. Although autocorrelation-based techniques imply heavy usage of hardware ...

This paper presents results obtained for the robust control of discrete time dynamical systems. The problem is formulated and solved using dynamic programming. Both necessary and sufficient conditions in terms of (stationary ...

We present a system call which enable directing high performance data transfers with in-kernel streams. The streams are defined and run using abstract data types called Cues, formed over the Unix file subsystem. The system ...

This report describes an integrated, distributed fault management (IDFM) system for communication networks. The architecture is based on a distributed intelligent agent paradigm, with probabilistic networks as the framework ...

In this paper we investigate image compression from a perceptual viewpoint. We develop a detailed image compression scheme usingmultiscale edges of the image, based on wavelet maximarepresentations. We also develop a ...

We present the issues related to secure muiticast communication in the presence of members who may collaborate to compromise the integrity of the system's security. We also show that the ability to compartmentalize the ...
