Design Factors For The Communication Architecture Of Distributed Discrete Event Simulation Systems, Catharine Mcintire Hoaglund Jan 2006

Design Factors For The Communication Architecture Of Distributed Discrete Event Simulation Systems, Catharine Mcintire Hoaglund

Theses Digitization Project

The purpose of the thesis was to investigate the influence communication architecture decisions have on the performance of a simulation system with distributed components. In particular, the objective was to assess the relative importance of factors affecting reliability and variability of an external data interface to the performance of the simulation, as compared to factor within the simulation itself.


Parallel Programming On General Block Min Max Criterion, Chuanche Lee Jan 2006

Parallel Programming On General Block Min Max Criterion, Chuanche Lee

Theses Digitization Project

The purpose of the thesis is to develop a parallel implementation of the General Block Min Max Criterion (GBMM). This thesis deals with two kinds of parallel overheads: Redundant Calculations Parallel Overhead (RCPO) and Communication Parallel Overhead (CPO).


Investigation Of 4-Cutwidth Critical Graphs, Dolores Chavez Jan 2006

Investigation Of 4-Cutwidth Critical Graphs, Dolores Chavez

Theses Digitization Project

A 2004 article written by Yixun Lin and Aifeng Yang published in the journal Discrete Math characterized the set of a 3-cutwidth critical graphs by five specified elements. This project extends the idea to 4-cutwidth critical graphs.


Online Hotel Booking System, Junxian Wang Jan 2006

Online Hotel Booking System, Junxian Wang

Theses Digitization Project

The Online Hotel Booking System was developed to allow customers to use a web browser to book a hotel, change the booking details, cancel the booking, change the personal profile, view the booking history, or view the hotel information through a GUI (graphical user interface). The system is implemented in PHP (Hypertext Preprocessor) and HTML (Hyper Text Markup Language).


Game Design And Development, Vani Indrani Surangi Jan 2006

Game Design And Development, Vani Indrani Surangi

Theses Digitization Project

The project focuses on computer tools suitable for particular game genres and how they are used to develop 3D computer games. As part of learning about the tools, the author developed a 3D computer adventure game called "Adventures of Smiley" using Macromedia Director MX and 3D Studio Max. The game's purpose is to engage children using a friendly interface while they learn about different topics in various subject areas through lessons and puzzles. The research gathered information about the current game industry, technologies and game genres, which can be used as a reference for the beginning level game programmer. The …


Multi-Warehouse Inventory Control System, Tzu-Hsiao Yin Jan 2006

Multi-Warehouse Inventory Control System, Tzu-Hsiao Yin

Theses Digitization Project

The thesis discusses the development of Multi-Warehouse Inventory Control System (MWICS), a uniquely designed web application that targets membership based food wholesalers. The main goal of MWICS is to provide a real-time inventory control ability to all warehouses and present them as if it were single warehouse. The program consists of three main components: user account management sub-system, product and purchase management sub-system, and a warehouse inventory management sub-system. User interfaces are constructed primarily in HTML, PHP, and Javascript. MySQL is used to add, access, and process data.


Symmetric Representation Of Elements Of Finite Groups, Timothy Edward George Jan 2006

Symmetric Representation Of Elements Of Finite Groups, Timothy Edward George

Theses Digitization Project

The purpose of the thesis is to give an alternative and more efficient method for working with finite groups by constructing finite groups as homomorphic images of progenitors. The method introduced can be applied to all finite groups that possess symmetric generating sets of involutions. Such groups include all finite non-abelian simple groups, which can then be constructed by the technique of manual double coset enumeration.
