(2005-07-25)The goal of this thesis is to introduce new matched field processors (MFPs) for estimating the source location and the environmental parameters of a shallow water waveguide in which the source transmits either broadband ...
-
(2005-09-30)In this dissertation it is shown that abstract data types (ADTs) can be specified by the Classified Model (CM) specification language - a first-order Horn language with equality and sort "classification" assertations. It ...
-
(2005-10-28)ITPerl is a web authoring tool that enables users to add temporal features to intensional web pages. ITPerl adds temporal macros to IPerl, a Perl interface to the C++ intense library. ITPerl combines temporal and default ...
-
(2005-12-16)Consider the concept of the Utility Model [5]: the optimal allocation of resources of a server or network while meeting the absolute Quality of Service (QoS) requirements of users' multimedia sessions. Past algorithms and ...
-
(2006-08-10)An alternative cycle proposed for refrigeration and gas liquefaction is active magnetic regenerator (AMR) refrigeration. This technology relies on solid materials exhibiting the magnetocaloric effect, a nearly reversible ...
-
(2006-09-06)In SCUBA diving, the propulsive efficiency of a diver regulates, in part, his autonomy. An inefficient method of propulsion will increase the power output required and, therefore, the intake of oxygen and increase fatigue. ...
-
(2006-09-06)Optical Confocal Holography is a combination of two well known concepts: confocal microscopy and optical (laser) holography. Confocal microscopy places an aperture at a conjugate focus to the specimen focus. This filters ...
-
(2006-09-27)Writing truly concurrent software is hard, scaling software to fully utilize hardware is one of the reasons why. One abstraction for increasing the scalability of systems software is clustered objects. Clustered objects ...
-
(2006-09-28)Many significant system extensions are hard to modularize. Consequently, their addition to a software system can jeopardize fundamental software engineering principles such as maintainability, understandability and ...
-
(2006-11-20)This dissertation explores a new approach to construct tools in the domain of reverse engineering. The approach uses already available software components -- such as off-the-shelf components and integrated development ...
-
(2007-01-30)Quincunx filter banks are two-dimensional, two-channel, nonseparable filter banks. They are widely used in many signal processing applications. In this thesis, we study the design and applications of quincunx filter banks ...
-
(2007-05-03)This thesis summarizes my work at the University of Victoria to design and evaluate a proof-of-concept instrument called the Confocal Acoustic Holography Microscope (CAHM). The instrument will be able to measure small ...
-
(2007-06-11)An Euler diagram C = {c_1, c_2,..., c_n} is a collection of n simple closed curves (i.e., Jordan curves) that partition the plane into connected subsets, called regions, each of which is enclosed by a unique combination ...
-
(2007-06-27)Regular path queries (RPQ’s) are given by means of regular expressions and ask for matching patterns on labeled graphs. RPQ’s have recently received great attention in the context of semistructured data, which are data ...
-
(2007-07-05)Although theoretically practical algorithms for torus embedding exist, they have not yet been successfully implemented and their complexity may be prohibitive to their practicality. We describe a simple exponential algorithm ...
-
(2007-08-09)In recent years, highly accurate branch predictors have been proposed primarily for high performance processors. Unfortunately such predictors are extremely energy consuming and in some cases not practical as they come ...
-
(2007-08-10)The work presented in this thesis has two distinct parts: (i) development of a spinal motion measurement technique and (ii) incorporation of the spinal motion measurement with galvanic vestibular stimulation (GVS) ...
-
(2007-08-20)Regular path queries (RPQs), expressed as regular expressions over the alphabet of database edge-labels, are commonly used for guided navigation of graph databases. RPQs are the basic building block of almost all the query ...
-
(2007-08-20)Achieving high compression ratio without significant loss of quality is the main goal of the most standard video coding systems. Since consecutive frames of a general video sequence have high correlations, the temporal ...
-
(2007-08-21)Conventional hydraulic brake (CHB) systems used in automotive industry have several limitations and disadvantages such as the response delay, wear of braking pad, requirement for auxiliary components (e.g. hydraulic pump, ...
