Complete Specification Of Ddm Mechanisms, Thomas L. Casavant, Weng H. Cheong, Ali Sajassi Jun 1988

Complete Specification Of Ddm Mechanisms, Thomas L. Casavant, Weng H. Cheong, Ali Sajassi

Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering Technical Reports

The specification of DDM (Distributed Decision-Making) algorithms is addressed. The modeling technique presented is based on well-known extensions to Petri-Nets (PNs). Transition-enabling functions with a domain corresponding to the marking of a net are used to express the semantics of decision-making. Furthermore, the algorithm structural characteristics of global state representation and topology are incorporated. Finally, the dynamic nature of evolution of system state, interaction with processes external to the computation, and the interprocess communication aspects of the mechanism are also modeled. The elements of analysis associated with this model are described, but not detailed in the scope of this paper.

Study Of Target Enhancement Algorithms To Counter The Hostile Nuclear Environment, Cameron H. G. Wright, Edward J. Delp May 1988

Study Of Target Enhancement Algorithms To Counter The Hostile Nuclear Environment, Cameron H. G. Wright, Edward J. Delp

Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering Technical Reports

A necessary requirement of strategic defense is the detection of incoming nuclear warheads in an environment that may include nuclear detonations of undetected or missed target warheads. A computer model is described which simulates incoming warheads as distant endoatmospheric targets. A model of the expected electromagnetic noise present in a nuclear environment is developed using estimates of the probability distributions. Predicted atmospheric effects are also included. Various image enhancement algorithms, both linear and nonlinear, are discussed concerning their anticipated ability to suppress the noise and atmospheric effects of the nuclear environment. These algorithms are then tested, using the combined target …


Statistical Classifier Design And Evaluation, Keinosuke Fukunaga, Raymond Reynolds Hayes May 1988

Statistical Classifier Design And Evaluation, Keinosuke Fukunaga, Raymond Reynolds Hayes

Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering Technical Reports

This thesis is concerned with the design and evaluation of statistical classifiers. This problem has an optimal solution with a priori knowledge of the underlying probability distributions. Here, we examine the expected performance of parametric classifiers designed from a finite set of training samples and tested under various conditions. By investigating the statistical properties of the performance bias when tested on the true distributions, we have isolated the effects of the individual design components (i.e., the number of training samples, the dimensionality, and the parameters of the underlying distributions). These results have allowed us to establish a firm theoretical foundation …


A. C. Power Losses In Mov Surge Arrestors, Alan J. Engelmann, W. L. Weeks May 1988

A. C. Power Losses In Mov Surge Arrestors, Alan J. Engelmann, W. L. Weeks

Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering Technical Reports

It was the objective of this study to measure power losses occurring in MOV surge arrestors as they were subjected to various voltage Excitations. In particular, power losses were observed in two MOV devices as sinusoidal voltages of different magnitudes were applied, at various frequencies in the range of typical power frequencies and common harmonics. Power losses were also observed in an MOV device for applied voltages consisting of the sum of 60 Hertz sinusoids and a single harmonic. The measurement procedure consisted of obtaining digital records representing the waveforms of voltage across and current through the MOV device during …

Partitioning Of Uniform Dependency Algorithms For Parallel Execution On Mimd/ Systolic Systems, Weijia Shang, Jose A. B. Fortes Apr 1988

Partitioning Of Uniform Dependency Algorithms For Parallel Execution On Mimd/ Systolic Systems, Weijia Shang, Jose A. B. Fortes

Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering Technical Reports

An algorithm can be modeled as an index set and a set of dependence vectors. Each index vector in the index set indexes a computation of the algorithm. If the execution of a computation depends on the execution of another computation, then this dependency is represented as the difference between the index vectors of the computations. The dependence matrix corresponds to a matrix where each column is a dependence vector. An independent partition of the index set is such that there are no dependencies between computations that belong to different blocks of the partition. This report considers uniform dependence algorithms …
