Web Shopping Expert Systems Using New Interval Type-2 Fuzzy Reasoning, Ling Gu Jan 2006

Web Shopping Expert Systems Using New Interval Type-2 Fuzzy Reasoning, Ling Gu

Computer Science Theses

Finding a product with high quality and reasonable price online is a difficult task due to the fuzzy nature of data and queries. In order to handle the fuzzy problem, a new type-2 fuzzy reasoning based decision support system, the Web Shopping Expert for online users is proposed. In the Web Shopping Expert, an interval type-2 fuzzy logic system is used and a fuzzy output can be obtained using the up-low limit technique, which offers an opportunity to directly employ all the rules and methods of the type-1 fuzzy sets onto the type-2 fuzzy sets. To achieve the best performance …


Simulating A Pipelined Reconfigurable Mesh On A Linear Array With A Reconfigurable Pipelined Bus System, Mathura Gopalan Jan 2006

Simulating A Pipelined Reconfigurable Mesh On A Linear Array With A Reconfigurable Pipelined Bus System, Mathura Gopalan

Computer Science Theses

Due to the unidirectional nature of propagation and predictable delays, optically pipelined buses have been gaining more attention. There have been many models proposed over time that use reconfigurable optically pipelined buses. The reconfigurable nature of the models makes them capable of changing their component’s functionalities and structure that connects the components at every step of computation. There are both one dimensional as well as k –dimensional models that have been proposed in the literature. Though equivalence between various one dimensional models and equivalence between different two dimensional models had been established, so far there has not been any attempt …


A System For Rapid Configuration Of Distributed Workflows Over Web Services And Their Handheld-Based Coordination, Jaimini Joshi Jan 2006

A System For Rapid Configuration Of Distributed Workflows Over Web Services And Their Handheld-Based Coordination, Jaimini Joshi

Computer Science Theses

Web services technology has lately stirred tremendous interest in industry as well as the academia. Web services are self-contained, platform independent functionality which is available over the internet. Web services are defined, discovered & accessed using a standard protocols like WSDL, UDDI & SOAP. With the advent of Service-Oriented Architecture and need for more complex application, it became eminent to have a way in which these independent entities could collaborate in a coherent manner to provide a high level functionality. But the problem of service composition is not an easy one. One reason being the self-contained and loosely coupled interaction …


Interval Neutrosophic Sets And Logic: Theory And Applications In Computing, Haibin Wang Jan 2006

Interval Neutrosophic Sets And Logic: Theory And Applications In Computing, Haibin Wang

Computer Science Dissertations

A neutrosophic set is a part of neutrosophy that studies the origin, nature, and scope of neutralities, as well as their interactions with different ideational spectra. The neutrosophic set is a powerful general formal framework that has been recently proposed. However, the neutrosophic set needs to be specified from a technical point of view. Here, we define the set-theoretic operators on an instance of a neutrosophic set, and call it an Interval Neutrosophic Set (INS). We prove various properties of INS, which are connected to operations and relations over INS. We also introduce a new logic system based on interval …


Upper Bound Analysis And Routing In Optical Benes Networks, Jiling Zhong Jan 2006

Upper Bound Analysis And Routing In Optical Benes Networks, Jiling Zhong

Computer Science Dissertations

Multistage Interconnection Networks (MIN) are popular in switching and communication applications. It has been used in telecommunication and parallel computing systems for many years. The new challenge facing optical MIN is crosstalk, which is caused by coupling two signals within a switching element. Crosstalk is not too big an issue in the Electrical Domain, but due to the stringent Bit Error Rate (BER) constraint, it is a big major concern in the Optical Domain. In this research dissertation, we will study the blocking probability in the optical network and we will study the deterministic conditions for strictly non-blocking Vertical Stacked …
