Monotone Optimal Policies for a Transient Queueing Staffing Problem
(1997)
We consider the problem of determining the optimal policy for staffing a queueing system over multiple periods, using a model that takes into account transient queueing effects. Formulating the problem in a dynamic programming ...
Built-In Self-Test and Fault Diagnosis for Analog Circuits in the Frequency Domain
(1995)
Due to the increasing complexity of analog circuits, finding out whether an analog circuit meets the required specification is a difficult and time consuming task. We propose a complete Build- In Self-Test and Fault-Diangosis ...
Integrated, Distributed Fault Management for Communication Networks
(1998)
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 ...
"Manufacturing-Operation Planning Versus AI Planning
(1995)
Although AI planning techniques can potentially be useful in several manufacturing domains, this potential remains largely unrealized. Many of the issues important to manufacturing engineers have not seemed interesting to ...
A Wavefront Array for URV Decomposition Updating
(1995)
The rank revealing URV decomposition is an effective tool in many signal processing applications that require the computation of the noise subspace of a matrix. In this paper, we consider a parallel architecture for updating ...
Using Neural Networks to Generate Design Similarity Measures
(1999)
This paper describes a neural network-based design similarity measure for a variant fixture planning approach. The goal is to retrieve, for a new product design, a useful fixture from a given set of existing designs and ...
Gradient Estimation of Two-Stage Continuous Transfer Lines Subject to Operation-Dependent Failures
(1998)
This paper addresses the gradient estimation of transfer linescomprising two machines separated by a buffer of finite capacity. A continuous flow model is considered, where machines are subject tooperation-dependent failures, ...
Estimating the Selectivity of Spatial Queries Using the orrelation' Fractal Dimension
(1995)
We examine the estimation of selectivities for range and spatial join queries in real spatial databases. As we have shown earlier [FK94a], real point sets: (a) violate consistently the ﲵniformity' and ndependence' ...
Fractal Geometry Applied to On-line Monitoring of Surface Finish
(1994)
Surface finish of machined parts determines the functionality of the product and also the machining requirements for making the parts. On-line monitoring of surface finish has been an active area of machining research. ...
Integrated Product and Process Design Environment Tool for Manufacturing T/R Modules
(1997)
We present a decision making assistant tool for integrated product and process design environment for manufacturing applications. Specifically, we target microwave modules which use Electro-mechanical components and require ...
