152 Henderson, Thomas C.; Bhanu, BirCAGD based 3-D visual recognitionA coherent automated manufacturing system needs to include CAD/CAM, computer vision, and object manipulation. Currently, most systems which support CAD/CAM do not provide for vision or manipulation and similarly, vision and manipulation systems incorporate no explicit relation to CAD/CAM models. CAD...Object manipulation; CAGD1985
153 Hibler, Michael J.Separating presentation from interface in RPC and IDLsIn RPC-based communication, we term the interface the set of remote procedures and the types of their arguments; the presentation is the way these procedures and types are mapped to the target language environment in a particular client or server, including semantic requirements. For example, pres...RPC-based communication; IDL; Presentation; Interface1995
154 Elens, Robert N.Sequencing computational events in heterogeneous distributed systemsDistributed systems are growing in number, size, and complexity. Some technological advances have been made to program these systems, most notably the remote procedure call. However, the nature of heterogeneous distributed systems allows for much more complex interactions and new programming techno...Sequencing; Computational events; Heterogeneous distributed systems1990
155 Zhu, XiaohongAutomatic compensating cleanup operationToday's part geometries are becoming ever more complex and require more accurate tool path to manufacture.

156 Balasubramonian, RajeevNon-uniform power access in large caches with low-swing wiresModern processors dedicate more than half their chip area to large L2 and L3 caches and these caches contribute significantly to the total processor power. A large cache is typically split into multiple banks and these banks are either connected through a bus (uniform cache access - UCA) or an on-c...Large caches; Low-swing wires; Non Uniform Cache Access; NUCA2009
157 Parker, Steven G.; Hansen, Charles D.Interactive volume rendering of large datasets using the silicon graphics Onyx4 visualization systemMany recent approaches to interactive volume rendering have focused on leveraging the power of commodity graphics hardware. Though currently limited to relatively small datasets, these approaches have been overwhelmingly successful. As the size of volumetric datasets continues to grow at a rapid pa...Volume visualization; Onyx4; Interactive volume rendering; Parallel volume rendering; Large datasets; Visualization systems2005
158 Sudan, KshitijUnderstanding the behavior of Pthread applications on non-uniform cache architecturesWhy is it important? As number of cores in a processor scale up, caches would become banked Keeps individual look-up time small. Allows parallel accesses by different cores. Present shared programming model assumes a flat memory. Unaware application can have sub-optimal performance Conclusion ...Computer architecture, compiler analysis, NUCA caches2011-10-08
159 Henderson, Thomas C.Instrumented sensor system architectureSensor systems are becoming ubiquitous throughout society, yet their design, construction and operation is still more of an art than a science. In this paper, we define, develop, and apply a formal semantics for sensor systems that provides a theoretical framework for an integrated software architec...Instrumented sensor system; Instrumented Logical Sensor Systems; ILSS1997
160 Boll, Steven F.Improving linear prediction analysis of noisy speech by predictive noise cancellationThe analysis of speech using Linear Prediction is reformulated to account for the presence of acoustically added noise and a technique is presented for reducing its effect on parameter estimation. The method, called Predictive Noise Cancellation (PNC), modifies the noisy speech autocorrelations ...Linear prediction; Predictive Noise Cancellation; Noisy speech; Sppech analysis1977
161 Gopalakrishnan, GaneshStatic analysis techniques for the synthesis of efficient asynchronous circuitsIn the context of deriving asynchronous circuits from high-level descriptions, determining whether two actions are potentially concurrent (overlapped execution) or serial (non-overlapped execution) has several advantages. This knowledge can be utilized to efficiently implement shared variables, sup...Static analysis; Synthesis1991
162 Allen, Edgar S.Sensory information processing (1 July 1976 - 31 March 1977)The student of human visual perception is often overwhelmed by the vast amount of data that has been accumulated from experiments performed within the last century or so. It is often difficult to understand why a certain experiment has been performed.Results from similar experiments sometimes seem t...Sensory information processing1977
163 Akella, VenkateshTesting two-phase transition signaling based self-timed circuits in a synthesis environmentThe problem of testing self-timed circuits generated by an automatic synthesis system is studied. Two-phase transition signalling is assumed and the circuits are targetted for an asynchronous macromodule based implementation as in [?, ?, ?, ?].
