Predicting the Impact of Placing Pre-event Pharmaceuticals for Anthrax
(2011-01)
Finding feasible strategies to distribute antibiotics quickly to the general public in response to an anthrax attack remains a difficult challenge. Among the proposed strategies is the pre-event placement of pharmaceuticals ...
Studying Real-time Traffic in Multi-hop Networks Using the EMANE Emulator: Capabilities and Limitations
(2011)
In this paper, we study the fidelity of an open-source software emulator to provide reliable estimation of performance for
real-time traffic in mobile ad-hoc networks. We emulate the IEEE 802.11 MAC/PHY (DCF) using the ...
The Dynamics Of A Simple Rational Map
(2011-07-17)
The dynamics of the 2-D rational map are studied for various values of it's control parameters. Despite it's simple structure
this model is very rich in non-linear phenomena such as, multi-scroll strange attrac-
tors, ...
Optimally Allocating MedKits to Defend Urban Areas from Anthrax Attacks
(2011-07)
The deliberate release of aerosolized anthrax spores in a large city will expose thousands to this deadly disease. Although state and local health departments have developed contingency plans for promptly opening points ...
Network connectivity with heterogeneous mobility
(2011)
We study the issue of mobile wireless network (MWN) connectivity. In particular, we investigate the smallest communication or transmission range of the nodes necessary for connectivity of MWNs, which we call the critical ...
Evaluation of Particle Clustering Algorithms in the Prediction of Brownout Dust Clouds
(2011-08)
A study of three Lagrangian particle clustering methods has been conducted with application to the problem of predicting brownout dust clouds that develop when rotorcraft land over surfaces covered with loose sediment. A ...
TSV-Constrained Micro-Channel Infrastructure Design for Cooling Stacked 3D-ICs
(2011-05-11)
Micro-channel based liquid cooling has significant capability of removing high density heat in 3D-ICs. The conventional micro-channel structures investigated for cooling 3D-ICs use straight channels. However, the presence ...
EXPLOITING PROCESS SYNERGY BETWEEN ANODIC ALUMINUM OXIDE NANOTEMPLATES AND ATOMIC LAYER DEPOSITION: FROM THIN FILMS TO 3D NANO-ELECTRONIC DEVICES
(American Institute of Physics, 2011-06-10)
Self-assembled, 3D nanoporous templates present an opportunity to develop devices which are lithography-free, massively scalable and hence, highly manufacturable. Self-limited deposition processes on the other hand, allow ...
A zero-one law for the existence of triangles in random key graphs
(2011)
Random key graphs are random graphs induced by the random key predistribution scheme of Eschenauer and Gligor under the assumption of full visibility. For this class of random graphs we show the existence of a zero-one law ...
