Dynamic Layout Management in a Multimedia Bulletin Board (2002)
(2005)
This paper proposes a novel user interface to manage the dynamic layout of multimedia objects in the Multimedia Bulletin Board (MBB) system. The MBB has been designed and implemented as a prototype of an asynchronous ...
Fast Error-Free Algorithms for Polynomial Matrix Computations
(1990)
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 ...
Queueing Network Approximations for Mass Dispensing and Vaccination Clinics
(2007)
To respond to bioterrorism events or to curb outbreaks of contagious diseases, county health departments must set up and operate clinics to dispense medications or vaccines. Planning these clinics before such an event ...
Queueing Models and Assessment Tools for Improving Mass Dispensing and Vaccination Clinic Planning
(2006)
To react to an outbreak of a contagious disease that requires medication or vaccination, county health departments must set up and operate mass dispensing and vaccination centers, commonly known as points of dispensing ...
Foundations of Swarm Intelligence: From Principles to Practice
(2003)
Swarm Intelligence (SI) is a relatively new paradigm being appliedin a host of research settings to improve the management andcontrol of large numbers of interacting entities such ascommunication, computer and sensor ...
Dynamic query tools for time series data sets: Timebox widgets for interactive exploration (2004)
(2005)
Timeboxes are rectangular widgets that can be used in direct-manipulation graphical user interfaces (GUIs) to specify query constraints on time series data sets. Timeboxes are used to specify simultaneously two sets of ...
On the Redundant-Drive Backlash-Free Robotic Mechanisms
(1990)
In this paper, we introduce a new and innovative concept for the control of backlash in gear-coupled robotic mechanisms. The concept utilizes redundant unidirectional drives to assure positive coupling of gear meshes at ...
Implementation of a Flexible Manufacturing Protocol.
(1986)
This paper is concerned with the development and implementation of a flexible manufacturing protocol for automated machining. Of specific interest is the machining of prismatic parts in a flexible manufacturing cell. The ...
An Active Set Method for Solving Linearly Constrained Nonsmooth Optimization Problems.
(1987)
An algorithm for solving linearly constrained optimization problems is proposed. The search direction is computed by a bundle principle and the constraints are treated through an active set strategy. Difficulties that arise ...
Fast Evaluation of Demagnetizing Field in Three Dimensional Micromagnetics using Multipole Approximation
(2001)
Computational micromagnetics in three dimensions is of increasing interest with the development of magnetostrictivesensors and actuators. <p>In solving the Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert (LLG) equation, the governing equation of ...
