1 Regehr, JohnThe case for hierarchical schedulers with performance guarantees2000-01-01
2 Harrison, Reid R.Eyes and ears: combining sensory motor systems modelled on insect physiologyIntegrating sensorimotor systems is still a difficult problems for robotics. Biological inspiration, which has been effectively used to address single sensorimotor tasks, could also be applied to this problem. Several studies on the cricket suggest that it integrates an optomotor response to two exi...2000-01-01
3 Furse, Cynthia M.Faster than fourier: ultra-efficient time-to-frequency-domain conversions for FDTD simulationsThis tutorial compares several methods of converting from the time to the frequency domain for FDTD simulations. Applications include calculations of field or power distributions, antenna impedance, and radiation patterns. The traditional Fourier transform methods are compared to two methods based o...FDTD simulations; FDTD methods; Finite-difference time-domain; Computation time; Frequency domain analysis; Time domain analysis; Discrete Fourier transform2000-01-01
4 Harrison, Reid R.Floating-gate PFET-based CMOS programmable analog memory cell arrayThe complexity of analog VLSI systems is often limited by the number of pins on a chip rather than by the die area. Currently, many analog parameters and biases are stored off chip. Moving parameter storage on chip could save pins and allow us to create complex programmable analog systems. In this ...2000-01-01
5 Regehr, JohnOperating system support for multimedia: the programming model mattersMultimedia is an increasingly important part of the mix of applications that users run on personal computers and workstations. The requirements placed on a multimedia operating system are demanding and often conflicting: untrusted, independently written soft real-time applications must be able to co...2000-01-01
6 Regehr, JohnPredictable scheduling for digital audioThis paper presents results from applying the Rialto/ NT scheduler to some real Windows 2000 application scenarios. We report on two aspects of this work. First, we studied the reliability of an audio player application and the middleware and kernel components running beneath it in order to assess i...2000-01-01
7 Furse, Cynthia M.; Christensen, Douglas A.Problem and treatment of DC offsets in FDTD simulationsThis paper discusses the causes of and some solutions to the commonly observed problem of dc field offsets in finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) simulations. DC electric and magnetic field offsets are shown to be valid calculated responses of the modeled systems, resulting from interaction betwee...FDTD simulations; Finite-difference time-domain; DC offsets2000-01-01
8 Harrison, Reid R.Silicon implementation of the fly's optomotor control systemFlies are capable of stabilizing their body during free flight by using visual motion information to estimate self-rotation. We have built a hardware model of this optomotor control system in a standard CMOS VLSI process. The result is a small, low-power chip that receives input directly from the r...Optomotor control system; photoreceptors; Insect visual system; Motion detector; CMOS transistor2000-01-01
