AVIS: An Advanced Video Information System
(1997)
During the last few years, the advent of the CD-Rom, and the introduction of high bandwidth communications networks has caused a spectacular explosion in the availability of large video- libraries. While a great deal of ...
Harnack's Inequality for Cooperative Weakly Coupled Elliptic Systems
(1997)
We consider cooperative, uniformly elliptic systems, with bounded coefficients and coupling in the zeroth-order terms. We establish two analogues of Harnack's inequality for this class of systems. A weak version is obtained ...
An Adaptive Hybrid FEC/ARQ Protocol Using Turbo Codes for Multi-Media Transmission of ATM over Wireless Networks
(1997)
This paper describes a type-II adaptive hybrid FEC/ARQ protocol using turbo codes for both voice and data services.Recently, a powerful family of error correcting codes using parallelconcatenated convolutional codes is ...
A Plan-Based Design Similarity Approach for Hybrid Process Planning
(1997)
A process plan describes the steps necessary to manufacture a product. Because creating a process plan is a time-comsuming activity, researchers have developed methods that reduce the time and effort required. The hybrid ...
Application of Auditory Representations on Speaker Identification
(1997)
The noise-robustness of auditory spectrum and cortical representation is examined by applying it to text-independent speaker identification tasks. A Bayes classifier residing on an M-ary hypothesis test is employed to ...
System Design for Object Reconstruction Using Information-Based Manufacturing
(1997)
The recent advancement of computers, both hardware and software, has led to a rapid development of information-based manufacturing. Applications of laser technology are revolutionizing the process of product development. ...
Teaching New Product Development through a Product Engineering Approach
(1997)
This paper describes experiences gained in teaching a new course aimed at providing junior-level undergraduate engineering students with some of the fundamentals needed in developing new products. A six-stage engineering ...
Commodity Trading Using Neural Networks: Models for the Gold Market
(1997)
Essential to building a good financial forecasting model is having a realistic trading model to evaluate forecasting performance. Using gold trading as a platform for testing we present a profit based model which we use ...
Software and Other Teaching Tools Applied to Modeling and Analysis of Distributed Parameter Systems
(1997)
Over the last two years, we have been developing a library of Matlab subprograms integrated with on-line lecture notes in the form of WWW documents which are used in both undergraduate and graduate-level Chemical Engineering ...
Large Deviations for Partial Sum Processes Over Finite Intervals
(1997)
With any sequence {xn, n = ﯱ, ﯲ, ...} of IRp -valued random variables, we associate the partial sum processes {XTN(.)}$ which take value, in the space $(D[0,T]^p, au_0)$ of, right- continuous functions $[0,T] ightarrow ...
