876 Gopalakrishnan, GaneshFrom process-oriented functional specifications to efficient asynchronous circuitsA methodology for high-level synthesis and performance optimization of asynchronous circuits is described. A specification language called hopCP which is based on a simple extension to classical flow graphs is introduced. The extension involves the addition of expression actions to a flow graph, to ...Synthesis; Performance optimization1991
877 Regehr, JohnFrom the editor: real-time and embedded systems--teaching reliabilityCan we teach students to build reliable embedded software? Although it would be rash to say that a general agreement exists on how to teach embedded systems, there's certainly a growing understanding of the issues. For example, the excellent August 2005 issue of ACM Transactions on Embedded Computin...2006-01-01
878 Freire, JulianaFrom XML schema to relations: a cost-based approach to XML storageAs Web applications manipulate an increasing amount of XML, there is a growing interest in storing XML data in relational databases. Due to the mismatch between the complexity of XML's tree structure and the simplicity of flat relational tables, there are many ways to store the same document in an ...LegoDB; XML Schema2002
879 Stevens, KennethFsimac: a fault simulator for asynchronous sequential circuitsAt very high frequencies, the major potential of asynchronous circuits is absence of clock skew and, through that, better exploitation of relative timing relations. This paper presents Fsimac, a gate-level fault simulator for stuck-at and gate-delay faults in asynchronous sequential circuits. Fsimac...2000
880 Normann, Richard A.Functional reorganization of primary visual cortex induced by electrical stimulation in the cat.Compared to the high degree of plasticity observed in a juvenile, mature sensory cortices have long been held to be immutable but, recently, researchers have suggested some plasticity persists in the mature cortex. Cortical reorganization has particular saliency to the development of a cortically ba...Cat; Electrophysiology; Phosphene; Plasticity; Receptive Field; Striate Cortex2005

882 Stringfellow, Gerald B.Fundamentals of vapor phase epitaxial growth processesThe first success with the growth of semiconductor materials by vapor phase epitaxy (VPE) dates back to the 1950's. Today, it is the largest volume technique for the production of both Si and HI/V electronic and photonic devices. Of course, commercial processes for the growth of Si layers, dielectri...Vapor phase epitaxy; Surfactants2007

884 Miller, Jan D.Further considerations of magnetic deinking for wastepaper recycling millsMagnetic de-inking has been shown to be an efficient process for the removal of certain toner particles from mixed office waste (MOW) furnishes. It is possible to achieve a dirt removal of 96% with the WHIMS (wet high intensity magnetic separator) if all toner particles present in the furnish are at...Magnetic deinking; Paper pulp; Wastepaper; Mixed office waste; (MOW)1998

887 Tiwari, AshutoshGarnet-type Li7La3Zr2O12 electrolyte prepared by a solution-based technique for lithium ion batteryHigh quality garnet-type Li7La3Zr2O12 solid electrolyte was synthesized using a solution-based technique. The electrolyte pellets were sintered at 900 oC, resulting in tetragonal phase, which then transformed to cubic phase after annealing at 1230 oC. The ionic conductivity of both phases was studie...2012-01-01
888 Hansen, Charles D.Gaussian transfer functions for multi-field volume visualizationVolume rendering is a flexible technique for visualizing dense 3D volumetric datasets. A central element of volume rendering is the conversion between data values and observable quantities such as color and opacity. This process is usually realized through the use of transfer functions that are prec...Volume rendering; Transfer functions; Volume visualization2003

890 Humphrey, Alan Parker; Derrick, Christopher Glade; Gopalakrishnan, GaneshGEM: graphical explorer for MPI programsFormal dynamic verification can complement MPI program testing by detecting hard-to-find concurrency bugs. In previous work, we described our dynamic verifier called ISP that can parsimoniously search the execution space of an MPI program while detecting important classes of bugs.

892 Christensen, Douglas A.General formulation for connecting sources and passive lumped-circuit elements across multiple 3-D FDTD cellsA previous extension of the finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method to include lumped-circuit elements is further extended to model lumped-element circuits connected across multiple FDTD cells.

893 Cotter, Neil E.Generality Vs. speed of convergence in the cart-pole balancerThis paper compares the speed of convergence to an optimal solution of four controllers for the problem of balancing a pole on a cart. We demonstrate that controllers whose design is tailored specifically to the cart-pole problem (i.e. less general) converge more rapidly to an optimal solution.

895 Wald, Ingo; Shirley, Peter S.Geometric and arithmetic culling methods for entire ray packetsRecent interactive ray tracing performance has been mainly derived from the use of ray packets. Larger ray packets allow for significant amortization of both computations and memory accesses; however, the majority of primitives are still intersected by each ray in a packet.

896 Liu, FengGeometric constant defining shape transitions of carbon nanotubes under pressureWe demonstrate that when a single-walled carbon nanotube is under pressure it undergoes a series of shape transitions, first transforming from a circle to an oval and then from an oval to a peanut. Most remarkably, the ratio of the area of the tube cross sections at the second transition over that ...Geometric constant; Shape transitions; Carbon nanotubes; Pressure2004-03
897 Thompson, William B.Geometric reasoning for map-based localizationAn essential aspect of map-based navigation is the determination of an agent's current location based on sensed data from the environment. Formally, this amounts to specifying the current viewpoint in some world model coordinate system. This localization process has two distinct components: one invo...Map-based localization; Map-based navigation; Geometric reasoning1996
898 Tasdizen, Tolga; Whitaker, Ross T.Geometric surface processing via normal mapsThe generalization of signal and image processing to surfaces entails filtering the normals of the surface, rather than filtering the positions of points on a mesh. Using a variational framework, smooth surfaces minimize the norm of the derivative of the surface normals? i.e. total curvature. Pen...Geometric surface processing; Surface models2002-01-17
899 Tasdizen, Tolga; Whitaker, Ross T.Geometric surface smoothing via anisotropic diffusion of normalsThis paper introduces a method for smoothing complex, noisy surfaces, while preserving (and enhancing) sharp, geometric features.
