A recent trend in computing is to distribute the computations among a set of processing elements. There are two basic appronches to this - one is to build a loosely-coupled system and the other is to form a tightly-coupled system [PS85].In a loosely-coupled system, the processors do not share common memory or a common clock; but sharing of important resources like data files, softwares, special hardware components etc., is possible without duplicating the resources themselves. The processing nodes may even be geographicully separated from each other and are connected through databuses, telephone/radio links, satellite, etc. Such loosely- coupled systems are …

Doctoral Theses
A distinctive intelligent trait of human beings is the ability to carry out meaningful communication through language. The communication may be direct as in spoken conversation or indirect as in written form, through the audio-visual media, etc. Linguistic ability in humans have fascinated scholars ever since man first learnt to use language. Linguistics, the branch of study involved in studying the nature of human linguistic communication, is perhaps as old as language itself. The invention of the computer added a new dimension to linguistics. Making the computer emu- late human linguistic behaviour was taken up as a challenge by computer …
An Algebraic Approach To Derivatives, Julia Lee Roman
An Algebraic Approach To Derivatives, Julia Lee Roman
Theses & Dissertations
The purpose of this thesis is to relate a unique method of dealing with the concept of the derivative of a function. The traditional approach to teaching calculus introduces the idea of the limit of a function early in the course as evidenced in the Essential Elements of the State Board of Education of Texas which places the limit concept as the second essential element of calculus in Texas high schools (Texas Education Agency (TEA) Essential Elements 1991). The "concepts and skills associated with the derivative" (TEA Essential Elements 1991) follow immediately after the introduction of the limit of a …

Some Sampling Designs And Estimation Problems, Hassan Lakkis
Mathematics & Statistics Theses & Dissertations
In the first chapter we review some standard estimators in sampling from a finite population, and some design-based estimators in sampling from a continuous universe.
In concert with the theory initiated by professor Douglas Robson (personal communication) and later presented by Cordy (1993), we consider design-based variance estimation for probability sampling from a continuous and spatially distributed universe. Using this theory in chapter two, the sampling design of one random point from each cell of a translated grid is investigated and the problem of edge effects on estimation is illustrated with examples. Also in chapter four, standard systematic sampling methods …

Rational Cubic B-Spline Interpolation And Its Applications In Computer Aided Geometric Design, Kotien Wu
Mathematics & Statistics Theses & Dissertations
Because of the flexibility that the weights and the control points provide, NURBS have recently become very popular tools for the design of curves and surfaces. If the weights are positive then the NURB will lie in the convex hull of its control points and will not possess singularities. Thus it is desirable to have positive weights.
In utilizing a NURB a designer may desire that it pass through a set of data points {xi} This interpolation problem is solved by the assigning of weights to each data point. Up to now little has been known regarding the …

Optimum Continuous Sampling Plans And A Few Other Sqc Problems., D Ghosh Dr.
Doctoral Theses
The wide acceptance of Statistics as a basic tool in technölogical growth, later recog- nised as a Key technology, gained ground with the pioneering work of Shewhart in 20s, introducing Statistical Quality Control (SQC) in manufacturing industry. Around the same time a solid statistical basis was being worked out for the ageold concepts of sampling inspection for industrial products. By 1930, acceptance sam- pling for lot by lot inspection was being applied in Western Electric Company and elsewhere. Since then statistical tools have been the major technical inputs of To- tal Quality Management which has spread far and wide as …

One such derivative is (E)-3-[2-[(4-Chlorophenyl) sulphonyl] ethenyl]-4H-l-benzopyran-4-one, which will hereafter be referred to as MM3. MM3 was synthesized and the initial data for the structural analysis taken in the departments of Physics and Chemistry at S.V. University, Tirupati, India. The drug has been found to have a high antibacterial …
An Inverse Approach To A Probability Model For Fractured Networks, Stacy G. Vail
An Inverse Approach To A Probability Model For Fractured Networks, Stacy G. Vail
All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023
A common problem in science and engineering applications deals with finding information about a system where only limited information is known. One example of this problem is determining the geometry of an aquifer or oil reservoir based on well tests taken at the site. The Conditional Coding Method attacks this type of problem. This method uses the Simulated Annealing Algorithm in conjunction with a probability model which generates possible solutions based on a uniform random number list. The Annealing Algorithm generates a conditional probability distribution on all possible solutions generated by the probability model, conditioned on the observed data set. …

Average Genus Of The Cube, Jody Koenemann
Honors Theses
In recent years, there has been interest in the mathematical community in a rapidly developing branch of theoretical mathematics known as random topological graph theory. This new area of mathematics explores the different ways in which certain graphs can be imbedded in given surfaces. The random nature of the new branch results when one also imposes a random distribution on set of all imbeddings of a fixed graph, via the orientation of the edges at each vertex. Using the technique of J. Edmonds, developed in 1960, this paper explores the imbeddings for the graph Q3 using a particular group …

In this paper, third order regular graphs of degree 1 with small order are characterized.
Markov Dilation Of Nonconservative Quantum Dynamical Semigroups And Quantum Boundary Theory., B. V. Rajarama Bhat Dr.
Markov Dilation Of Nonconservative Quantum Dynamical Semigroups And Quantum Boundary Theory., B. V. Rajarama Bhat Dr.
Doctoral Theses
In classical probability theory, based on Kolmogorov consistency theorem, one can associate a Markov process to any one parameter semigroup of stochastic matrices or transition probability operators. It is indeed the foundation for the theory of Markov processes. Here a quantum version of this theorem has been established. This effectively answers some of the questions raised by P. A. Meyer in his book (see page 220 of (Me).It is widely agreed upon that irreversible dynamics in the quantum setting is de- scribed by contractive semigroups of completely positive maps on C" algebras ([Kr). (AL]). In other words these semigroups, known …
Multivalued Approach For Uncertainty Management., Deba Prasad Mandal Dr.
Multivalued Approach For Uncertainty Management., Deba Prasad Mandal Dr.
Doctoral Theses
Real life problems are rarely free from uncertainty which usually emerges from the deficiencies of information available from a situation. The defi- ciencies may result from incomplete, imprecise, not fully reliable, vague or contradictory information depending on the problem. Management of uncer- tainty in a decision making system has been an important research problem for many years.Until the inception of the concept of fuzzy set theory in 1965 (1), the theory of probability and statistics was the primary mathematical tool for modeling uncertainty in a system/situation. Fuzzy set theory has shown enormous proinise in handling uncertaintics to a reasonable extent …

Three Aspects Of Industrial Dualism In A Developing Economy., Malbika Roy Dr.
Three Aspects Of Industrial Dualism In A Developing Economy., Malbika Roy Dr.
Doctoral Theses
The concept of duali sm which has remained central to the study of the by of economic development, was first developed process Lewis(1954) and then further extended by Fel and Ranis(1966). Lewis concelved of a developing economy as one typically consisting of two sectors: a modern sector identified with industry, and a traditional sector identified with agriculture. Resources flow from the traditional to the modern sector whlle the process of development continues. As a consequence, the modern sector grows and the traditional sector shrinks. Some of the other development economists used other facets of dualism. Harris-Todaro(1970) explained the process of …

Evaluating In Dual Economy Framework The Indian Industrial Performance During 1951-52 To 1989-90., R. Kavita Rao Dr.
Doctoral Theses
The primary goal of economic development is to achieve high rates of growth of outputs and incomes so to ensure high per as capita income and levels of living in the economy. In India, this was sought to be achleved, to a large extent, through a rapid expansion and growth of the industrial sector, as is evident in the emphasis placed on the industrialisation programmes in her various Five Year Plans. However, the growth of this sector has exhibited considerable ups and downs over the years, belying expectations. Quite expectedly, this has evoked substantial debate on the factors influencing and/or …
Some Limit Theorem On Conditional U-Statistics And Censored Data Non Parametric Regression., Arusharka Sen Dr.
Some Limit Theorem On Conditional U-Statistics And Censored Data Non Parametric Regression., Arusharka Sen Dr.
Doctoral Theses
In Statistics, a classical problem is that of estimating the regression function which is defined as m{t) := E(Y|X = ), te R, for two random variables X and Y such that EY < 0o. The estimators are constructed iased on a sample {(Xi, Yi.)}, 1sis n,n 2 1, from the distribution of (X, Y). Throughout this thesis, we assume X and Y to be real-valued for the sake of convenience. The classical approach to this problem is to assume a parametrized, polynomial form for nt-), i.e., m(t) := Bo + E-1 P,ti, p 21, and obtain estimates of the unknown paraineters Bo, Bj,, 1sjsp. Later, with the development of techıniques for non-parametrie density estimation, it was sought to extend these techniques to regression estimation. Heuristically, the two problems can be seen to be related as follows : let fi(-) be the marginal density of X and note that E1(X S x) = h(t)dt, z € R, whereas EY 1(X Sx) = m(t)fi(t)dt, x E MR. (1.0.2) In other wordds, (1.0.1) can be looked upon as a special case of (1.0.2), with Y = 1. + similarity, as we shall see later on, has been the underlying theme in Chapters 2 and 4 of the present work.) The following non-parametric regression estimator was proposed independently by Nadaraya (1964) and Watson (1964): "(): := m.(Y,)/m.(1, ), te R, (1.0.3) where m,(Y, t) = (nan)- E-, Y;K((t - X:)/an). (1.0.4) m,(1,1) (na,)-E, K((I - X)/a,). Here K(), the so-called kernel function, is chosen to satiafy various analytical conditions (typically, K(-) is taken to be a density function), and a, 1 0 are the bandwidths which go to zero sufficiently slowly (e.g., na,0o as n00) in order to ensure consistency of the estimator mW (). The intuition behind such an estimator is that m,(Y,) is an estimator of mt-)fi() while m,(1,) cstimates the density fa(-). See Prakasa Rao (1983), Chapters 1-4. for an introduction to non-parametric density and regression estimation. Now, m(t) is a functional of the conditional distribution of Y, given X = t. A natu- ral generalisation of the regression estimation problem seems to be the estimation of the following functionals: mh(t1,....tk) := E{h(Y1,.....Yk) | X1, = t1.,Xk. = tk), (t....) € R*, k 2 1, (1.0.5) where h: R*- R is such that Elh(Y...., Y) < 0. A similar generalisation led Hoelfding (1948) from the sample mcan to the theory of so-called U-statistics, in the uncondilional set-up. The estimation of (1.0.5) were considerexl, for the first time in published form, in Stute (1991) where the following conditional U-statistics were proposed as estimators;where Fn(-) := n-1E, 1(Xi; < ) denotes the empirical distribution function (c.d.f Bochynek discussed the asymptotic normality of conditional U- and V-statistics and pei formed simulation studies on them. Stute (1991) established weak and strong pointwis consistency and asymptotic normality of U(t). Liero (1991) studied uniform strong con sistency of conditional U-statistics and established asymptotic normality of the integrate squared error (ISE) statistic:for suitable A c R* and weight function w(-). We quote the following examples to illustrate the possible use of conditional U-statistics See Stute (1991) and Bochynek (1987) for other examples. Throughout this thesis, our set up will be as foliows: {(Xn, Yn)}n>ı is a bi-variate i.i.d sequence, with (X1, Y1) having join density f(,-) and X, having marginal density fi(-). Consequently,

Discrete Singularity Method And Its Application To Incompressible Flows., S K. Venkatesan Dr.
Doctoral Theses
The smooth flow of a fluid has sprung many surprises. A flow which at an instant of time is quite regular and orderly could produce on the slightest of disturbance a complex bewildering varieties of flows, broadly termed as turbulence. Direct numerical simulation of the Navier-Stokes equations have shown that it is quite possible that these turbulent flows are solutions of the Navier-Stokes equations. In fact it is by now well recognized that many non-linear systems produce chaos quite similar to turbulence. However the large number of scales and their complex interactions involved make turbulence difficult to understand. Direct numerical …

Walrasian Theory Without On Auctioneer: A Study Of Monetary Exchange Through Trading Posts And A Diagrammatic View Of Disequilibria., Meenakshi Rajeev Dr.
Doctoral Theses
The theory of Walrasian equilibrium yields a set of prices at which the aggregate competitive demand for each commodity equals its aggregate competitive supply. Two important issues arise in this context. The first is concerned with discovering laws which guide the behaviour of the many economic variables, especially prices, when the analyst m is out of equilibrium. Walras (1900) tackled this problem by providing an algorithm (or the stÃ¥tenement scheme") which can be viewed as an auctioneer quoting different peices for the various goods an. adjusting them according t the sigus of the resulting aggregate excess demands. This is the …

Study Of Moduli Of Bundles., Indranil Biswas Dr.
Doctoral Theses
Hitchin (Hi2) realized the importance of studying pairs (E,∅) where E is a vector bundle and ∅ is a homomorphism of E into EOL for a fixed line bundle L. When C is a smooth pro jective algebraic curve this has since been studied quite extensively. One can construct a covering of C in this situation and the given data can be completely recovered by this covering map and a line bundle on the covering curve (see Beauville, Narasimhan and Ramanan (BNR]). When L is the canonical bundle this procedure gives a completely integrable system on the cotangent bundle of …

Parametric Homotopy Principle Of Some Practical Differential Relations., Mahuya Datta Dr.
Doctoral Theses
A system uf r-th order partial differential inequalities is a subspace in the space of r-jets of CT" maps between manifolds. The problem of homotopy classification of C solutions of such systems is stauliel in this thesis. The text roughly divides into two parts. In the first part, the problem is considered in an equivariant setting when the system is open and invariant under the action of a compact L.ie group, but may not be invariant under the action of the pseudogroup of equivariant local diffeomorphisms. The second part concerns a non-equivariant set-up without the openness condition on the systern. …

A Study Of The Two Major Causes Of Neonatal Deaths: Perinatal Conditions And Congenital Anomalies, Felipe Lorenzo-Luaces
A Study Of The Two Major Causes Of Neonatal Deaths: Perinatal Conditions And Congenital Anomalies, Felipe Lorenzo-Luaces
UNF Graduate Theses and Dissertations
Infant mortality is a public health concern in the United states. We concentrate on neonatal mortality for its high accountability of infant mortality. In this paper we study the neonatal mortality of Florida's 1989 live birth cohort.
The data has been analyzed for two major causes of deaths: perinatal conditions and congenital anomalies. We use the KAPLAN-MEIER method to estimate the survival probabilities. For each cause, data were fit to the Weibull models and Extreme Value models to estimate the parameters of the survival curves. The results indicate that primary factors for each cause of neonatal deaths are very low …

Multigrid Acceleration Of Time-Dependent Solutions Of Navier-Stokes Equations, Sarafa Oladele Ibraheem
Mechanical & Aerospace Engineering Theses & Dissertations
Recent progress in Computational Fluid Dynamics is encouraging scientists to look at fine details of flow physics of problems in which natural unsteady phenomena have hitherto been neglected. The acceleration methods that have proven very successful in steady state computations can be explored for time dependent computations. In this work, an efficient multigrid methods is developed to solve the time-dependent Euler and Navier-Stokes equations. The Beam-Warming ADI method is used as the base algorithm for time stepping calculations. Application of the developed algorithm proved very efficient in selected steady and unsteady test problems. For instance, the inherent unsteadiness present in …
Linear Codes And Error-Correction, Karen Brown
Linear Codes And Error-Correction, Karen Brown
Presidential Scholars Theses (1990 – 2006)
The process of encoding information for transmission from one source to another is a vital process in many areas of science and technology. Whenever coded information is sent, there arises a certain possibility that an error will occur, either during transmission or in decoding. Therefore, it is imperative to develop methods to detect and correct errors in a code. The study of coding theory is a "new" area of mathematics which is relatively undeveloped.
This paper focuses on the properties of linear codes -and their corresponding methods of error-correction. To simplify the issue, only binary block codes are studied; hence …
A Relationship Between The Fibonacci Sequence And Cantor's Ternary Set, John David Samons
A Relationship Between The Fibonacci Sequence And Cantor's Ternary Set, John David Samons
UNF Graduate Theses and Dissertations
The Fibonacci sequence and Cantor's ternary set are two objects of study in mathematics. There is much theory published about these two objects, individually. This paper provides a fascinating relationship between the Fibonacci sequence and Cantor's ternary set. It is a fact that every natural number can be expressed as the sum of distinct Fibonacci numbers. This expression is unique if and only if no two consecutive Fibonacci numbers are used in the expression--this is known as Zekendorf's representation of natural numbers. By Zekendorf's representation, a function F from the natural numbers into [0,0.603] will be defined which has the …

A Partial "Squeezing Theorem" For A Particular Class Of Many-Valued Logics, Stephen Michael Walk
A Partial "Squeezing Theorem" For A Particular Class Of Many-Valued Logics, Stephen Michael Walk
Dissertations and Theses @ UNI
The problem to be studied for this thesis was that of whether the usual statement calculus is a suitable formal system for every many-valued logic in a particular collection of logics. The logics in question are those that fall between the usual two-valued logic and a modified form of the Lukasiewicz-Tarski three-valued logic.
Since this betweenness relationship was an original concept and appeared nowhere in the literature, the first goal in the research plan was to define this relationship precisely. Preliminary concepts included truth value mapping and forgivingness of logics, concepts that, like betweenness, are original to this paper and …
Invariant Manifolds Of A Toy Climate Model, Michael Toner
Invariant Manifolds Of A Toy Climate Model, Michael Toner
Mathematics & Statistics Theses & Dissertations
According to astronomical theory, ice ages are caused by variations in the Earth's orbit. However, ice core data shows strong fluctuations in ice volume at a low frequency not significantly present in orbital variations. To understand how this might occur, the dynamics of a two dimensional nonlinear differential equation representing glacier/temperature interaction of an idealized climate was studied. Self sustained oscillation of the autonomous equation was used to model the internal mechanisms that could produce these fluctuations. Periodic parametric modulation of a damped internal oscillation was used to model periodic climate response at double the external modulation period. Both phenomena …
