Inventory And Pricing In Global Operations: Learning From Observed Demands, Nicholas C. Petruzzi, Maqbool Dada Jan 1995

Inventory And Pricing In Global Operations: Learning From Observed Demands, Nicholas C. Petruzzi, Maqbool Dada

Purdue CIBER Working Papers

We develop a two-period model applicable to global sourcing by considering a firm that operates in two markets: one is located in the U.S. and the second is in a country having a selling season that does not overlap with the U.S. selling season. Demand for each market depends linearly on the selling price and includes an unknown scale parameter. We assume that the firm learns from sales in the first market to assist decision making in the second. We also assume a single procurement opportunity, but allow the firm to ship leftovers from the first market to the second …

Impact Of Data-Reuse And Multiple Data-Copies In A Heterogeneous Computing System With Sequentially Executed Subtasks , Min Tan, John K. Antonio, Howard Jay Siegel, Yan Alexander Li Jan 1995

Impact Of Data-Reuse And Multiple Data-Copies In A Heterogeneous Computing System With Sequentially Executed Subtasks , Min Tan, John K. Antonio, Howard Jay Siegel, Yan Alexander Li

Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering Technical Reports

In a heterogeneous computing (HC) environment, an application program is decomposed into subtasks, then each computationally homogeneous subtask is assigned to the machine where it is best suited for execution. It is assumed that, at any instant in time during the execution of a specific application program, only one machine is being used for program execution and only one subtask is being executed. A mathematical model is presented for three of the factors that affect the execution time of an application program in an HC system: matching, scheduling, and data relocation schemes. Two data relocation situations are identified, namely data-reuse …

Use Of Time Domain Reflectometry For Determination Of Water Content An Density Of Soil, Shafiqul I. Siddiqui, Vincent P. Drnevich Jan 1995

Use Of Time Domain Reflectometry For Determination Of Water Content An Density Of Soil, Shafiqul I. Siddiqui, Vincent P. Drnevich

JTRP Technical Reports

A new method is developed for measuring in-place density and moisture content of soil using the technique of Time Domain Reflectometry (TDR). The method is applicable for construction control of earthworks. The method is extended for measuring moisture content of soil in the laboratory and in the field for various other geotechnical purposes. Laboratory uses include measuring moisture content of soil in compaction molds; field uses include measuring moisture content of soil in Shelby tubes and soil retrieved during drilling and sampling operations. In the course of achieving these goals, this study develops the principles of TDR probe design, test …


Influence Of Blood Flow And Vasoactive Drugs Upon Tissue Temperature Distributions In Local Hyperthermia Therapy, Charles F. Babbs Dec 1994

Influence Of Blood Flow And Vasoactive Drugs Upon Tissue Temperature Distributions In Local Hyperthermia Therapy, Charles F. Babbs

Weldon School of Biomedical Engineering Faculty Working Papers

Effective local hyperthermia for cancer requires selective elevation of intratumoral temperature without overheating of surrounding normal tissues. Temperature elevation depends upon the balance between absorbed power density, which heats the treated tissue, and blood perfusion, which cools it. Selectivity can be achieved by manipulations of vascular physiology to increase blood cooling of normal tissues or to decrease blood cooling of tumor tissue. Creation of a favorable normal-to-tumor blood flow ratio is possible because the small blood vessels supplying most tumors are structurally and functionally different from the microvasculature of normal tissues. Normal arterioles dilate in heated tissues to raise local …

Heterogeneous Computing, Howard Jay Siegel, John K. Antonio, Richard C. Metzger, Min Tan, Yan Alexander Li Dec 1994

Heterogeneous Computing, Howard Jay Siegel, John K. Antonio, Richard C. Metzger, Min Tan, Yan Alexander Li

Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering Technical Reports

A heterogeneous computing (HC) system provides a variety of architectural capabilities, orchestrated to perform an application whose subtasks have diverse execution requirements. One type of heterogeneous computing system is a mixed-mode machine, where a single machine can operate in different modes of parallelism. Another is a mixed-machine system, where a suite of different kinds of high-performance machines are interconnected by high-:speed links. To exploit such systems, a task must be decomposed into subtasks, where each subtask is computationally homogeneous. The subtasks are then assigned to and executed with the machines (or modes) that will result in a minimal overall execution …


Image Processing And Computer Graphics Algorithms For Surface Rendering From Mri Data. , Arda Kamil Bafra, Okan K. Ersoy, David J. Hansen Dec 1994

Image Processing And Computer Graphics Algorithms For Surface Rendering From Mri Data. , Arda Kamil Bafra, Okan K. Ersoy, David J. Hansen

Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering Technical Reports

The reconstruction of objects in three dimensions, from two-dimensional MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) slices is a powerful tool for better understanding of anatomical structures. In this work, a combination of image processing and computer graphics techniques has been used to develop the required algorithms for surface rendering of anatomical structures from MRI data. Surface rendering is performed in two stages. In the first stage, image processing techniques have been used to develop the required algorithms for the extraction of the data, which is then transferred to a computer graphics environment. The proposed algorithms are for successive automatic segmentation using Markov …

A Prototype Computational Phantom To Create Digital Images For Research And Training In Diagnostic Radiology, Charles F. Babbs Nov 1994

A Prototype Computational Phantom To Create Digital Images For Research And Training In Diagnostic Radiology, Charles F. Babbs

Weldon School of Biomedical Engineering Faculty Working Papers

Research in the processing, compression, transmission, and interpretation of digital radiographic images require the testing and evaluation of a wide variety of images, varying both in format and in spatial resolution. If receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis or a related method is used to evaluate the performance of observers using novel vs. conventional displays, large numbers of test images containing known abnormalities are required. This report describes a convenient, inexpensive, and reproducible source of test images, having any desired resolution and containing precisely defined abnormalities of unlimited subtlety. The images are generated by computing x-ray transmission through mathematically defined, three …
