Mathews, V. John | Adaptive realizations of the phase transform for time delay estimation | ABSTRACT This paper introduces two recursive realizations of the Phase Transforn (PHAT) processor for tine delay estimation (TOE), using a simple one-pole lowpass filter and the least mean square (LMS) adaptive filter, respectively. It is shown that these adaptive methods are very effective in redu... | 1984 | |

Mathews, V. John | Adaptive unsharp masking for contrast enhancement | ABSTRACT A new scheme o,f unsharp masking for image contrast enhancement is presented in this paper. An adaptive algorithm is introduced so that a sharpening action is performed only in locations where the image exhibits significant dynamics. Hence, the amplification of noise in smooth areas i... | 1997 | |

Stringfellow, Gerald B.; Shurtleff, James Kevin | Adsorption and desorption of the surfactant Sb on GaInP grown by organometallic vapor phase epitaxy | It has been determined that ordering has a profound effect on the bandgap energy of many compound semiconductor alloys. Therefore, ordering must be controlled for devices such as solar cells, light emitting diodes and diode lasers. Since ordering depends on the surface properties during organomet... | Time dependent surface photoabsorption (SPA); Compound semiconductor alloys | 2000 |

Scarpulla, Michael | Air shear driven flow of thin perfluoropolyether polymer films | We have studied the wind driven movement of thin perfluoropolyether (PFPE) polymer films on silicon wafers and CNx overcoats using the blow-off technique. The ease with which a liquid polymer film moves across a surface when sheared is described by a shear mobility xS , which can be interpreted both... | Perfluoropolyether; Polymer films; Air shear; Shear mobility | 2003 |

Tasdizen, Tolga | Algebraic curves that work better | An algebraic curve is defined as the zero set of a polynomial in two variables. Algebraic curves are practical for modeling shapes much more complicated than conics or superquadrics. The main drawback in representing shapes by algebraic curves has been the lack of repeatability in fitting algebraic... | 1999 | |

Stevens, Kenneth | Algorithms for MIS vector generation and pruning | Ignoring the effect of simultaneous switching for logic gates causes silicon failures for high performance microprocessor designs. The main reason to omit this effect is the run time penalty and potential over-conservatism. Run times are directly proportional to the vector sizes. Efficient algorithm... | 2006 | |

Lindstrom, Gary E. | Alpha-beta pruning on evolving game trees | The alpha-beta strategy is a widely used method for economizing on the size of game trees. Heretofore, its application has been limited to depth-first tree growth in recursive search functions. However, many modern game players use retentive (i.e. coroutine-based) control to achieve greater attentio... | Alpha-beta pruning; Game trees | 1979 |

Carter, John B. | An O(1) time complexity software barrier | As network latency rapidly approaches thousands of processor cycles and multiprocessors systems become larger and larger, the primary factor in determining a barrier algorithm?s performance is the number of serialized network latencies it requires. All existing barrier algorithms require at least ... | Network latency; Barrier algorithm; Time complexity software barrier | 2004 |
