Naboh System: Gathering Intelligence From Traffic Patterns, Angelica M. Delgado Aug 2005

Naboh System: Gathering Intelligence From Traffic Patterns, Angelica M. Delgado

Theses and Dissertations - UTB/UTPA

Network traffic anomalies are important indicators of problematic traffic over a network. Network activity has patterns associated with it depending on the applications running on the local hosts connected to the network. There are traffic parameters into which network traffic of a local host can be divided: bandwidth usage, number of remote hosts that a local host is connecting to and vice versa, and number of ports used by the local host. This thesis develops a system for detecting and profiling network anomalies by analyzing traffic parameters using intelligent computational techniques. The developed system gathers intelligence by examining only the …


Pulsar Timing And The Detection Of Black Hole Binary Systems In Globular Clusters, Fredrick A. Jenet, Teviet Creighton, Andrea Lommen Jul 2005

Pulsar Timing And The Detection Of Black Hole Binary Systems In Globular Clusters, Fredrick A. Jenet, Teviet Creighton, Andrea Lommen

Physics & Astronomy Faculty Publications

The possible existence of intermediate-mass binary black holes (IMBBHs) in globular clusters (GCs) offers us a unique geometry in which to detect spacetime oscillations. For certain pulsar-IMBBH configurations possible within a GC, the usual far-field plane wave approximation for the IMBBH metric perturbation severely underestimates the induced pulse time-of-arrival (TOA) fluctuations. In this Letter, the expected TOA fluctuations induced by an IMBBH lying close to the line of sight between a pulsar and the Earth are calculated for the first time. For an IMBBH consisting of 10 and 103 M⊙ components, a 10 yr orbital period, and located 0.1 lt-yr …

Detecting The Stochastic Gravitational Wave Background Using Pulsar Timing, Fredrick A. Jenet, George B. Hobbs, K. J. Lee, Richard N. Manchester Jun 2005

Detecting The Stochastic Gravitational Wave Background Using Pulsar Timing, Fredrick A. Jenet, George B. Hobbs, K. J. Lee, Richard N. Manchester

Physics & Astronomy Faculty Publications

The direct detection of gravitational waves is a major goal of current astrophysics. We provide details of a new method for detecting a stochastic background of gravitational waves using pulsar timing data. Our results show that regular timing observations of 40 pulsars each with a timing accuracy of 100 ns will be able to make a direct detection of the predicted stochastic background from coalescing black holes within 5 years. With an improved prewhitening algorithm, or if the background is at the upper end of the predicted range, a significant detection should be possible with only 20 pulsars. © 2005. …

Empirical Performance Analysis Of Two Algorithms For Mining Intentional Knowledge Of Distance-Based Outliers, Enbamoorthy Prasanthi May 2005

Empirical Performance Analysis Of Two Algorithms For Mining Intentional Knowledge Of Distance-Based Outliers, Enbamoorthy Prasanthi

Theses and Dissertations - UTB/UTPA

This thesis studies the empirical analysis of two algorithms, Uplattice and Jumplattice for mining intentional knowledge of distance-based outliers [19]. These algorithms detect strongest and weak outliers among them. Finding outliers is an important task required in major applications such as credit-card fraud detection, and the NHL statistical studies. Datasets of varying sizes have been tested to analyze the empirical values of these two algorithms. Effective data structures have been used to gain efficiency in memory-performance. The two algorithms provide intentional knowledge of the detected outliers which determines as to why an identified outlier is exceptional. This knowledge helps the …


Compensation For Automatic White Balance Correction With Histogram Equalization, David D. Kirtley May 2005

Compensation For Automatic White Balance Correction With Histogram Equalization, David D. Kirtley

Theses and Dissertations - UTB/UTPA

Histogram equalization rather than hard scaling can be used as an effective technique to counter automatic white balance correction in video processing to facilitate motion detection in video sequences. Benefits of this method are less user interaction needed by not needing to preview the image to select a scaling area and reduction of the non-focused changes in the video caused by using a scaling area. Reduced interaction lends itself to data mining of video.


Extension Of Stereolithography Mold Life Using Gas-Assisted Injection Molding, Dilip Bose Ramalingam Nagarajan May 2005

Extension Of Stereolithography Mold Life Using Gas-Assisted Injection Molding, Dilip Bose Ramalingam Nagarajan

Theses and Dissertations - UTB/UTPA

Stereolithography (SL) molds show great promise for injection molding of limited number of parts, greatly reducing the time to product and production cost. However, they present challenges to designers because of their strength, thermal characteristics and shorter lifetimes compared to metal molds. Gas-assisted injection molding (GAIM) has been used to alleviate the problems of distortion and thermal damage. The use of GAIM makes it possible to produce a large number of parts compared to conventional injection molding in epoxy molds with higher quality. In this research solid models of the mold with different part geometry were created using CAD and …


Factors Of Placement Decisions Of Students With Learning Disabilities, April C. Yetsko May 2005

Factors Of Placement Decisions Of Students With Learning Disabilities, April C. Yetsko

Theses and Dissertations - UTB/UTPA

This study looked at the factors that are involved in determining the placement decision of a child with a learning disability. Reading level, previous placement, initial placement, intelligence quotient, English proficiency and behavior were the factors examined in the study. Data was collected by examining the school files of children labeled as learning disabled in two school districts in south Texas. The different placement factors were studied to see which ones were most predictive of the number of hours a week that a student spent in a special education classroom. The research design utilized was a descriptive analysis, a correlation …


The Death Of The Subject-Impossible: An Analysis Of The Subject In Deconstruction And Psychoanalysis, Melinda Mejia May 2005

The Death Of The Subject-Impossible: An Analysis Of The Subject In Deconstruction And Psychoanalysis, Melinda Mejia

Theses and Dissertations - UTB/UTPA

Referring mainly to works of Jacques Derrida and Jacques Lacan, but also drawing from other major theorists of deconstruction and psychoanalysis, this study focuses on the role of language in the formation of the subject. It also addresses prevailing arguments which call into question the political dynamism of poststructuralist theories of the subject.

An Overview Of The Economy Of Port Isabel, Texas, Baltazar Arispe Y Acevedo Jr., Oralia De Los Reyes, Ignacio E. Rodríguez, University Of Texas At Brownsville, Texas Southmost College

Digital Books

The assessment of a small geographic area, such as the city of Port Isabel, is rather difficult to conduct on a micro scale since most data is generated for the macro area that may include several census tracts and zip codes. This assessment, by the Cross Border Institute for Regional Development [CBIRD] at the University of Texas at Brownsville and Texas Southmost College is part of a component of a broader scope of work that is being conducted for the City of Port Isabel by Gomez and Associates. CBIRD will address those items, for which data was available, and will …

Reconstitution Of A Minimal Dna Replicase From Pseudomonas Aeruginosa And Stimulation By Non-Cognate Auxiliary Factors, Thale C. Jarvis, Amber A. Beaudry, James M. Bullard, Nebojsa Janjic, Charles S. Mchenry Mar 2005

Reconstitution Of A Minimal Dna Replicase From Pseudomonas Aeruginosa And Stimulation By Non-Cognate Auxiliary Factors, Thale C. Jarvis, Amber A. Beaudry, James M. Bullard, Nebojsa Janjic, Charles S. Mchenry

School of Integrative Biological & Chemical Sciences (Formerly Dept. of Chemistry)

DNA polymerase III holoenzyme is responsible for chromosomal replication in bacteria. The components and functions of Escherichia coli DNA polymerase III holoenzyme have been studied extensively. Here, we report the reconstitution of replicase activity by essential components of DNA polymerase holoenzyme from the pathogen Pseudomonas aeruginosa. We have expressed and purified the processivity factor (β), single-stranded DNA-binding protein, a complex containing the polymerase (α) and exonuclease (ϵ) subunits, and the essential components of the DnaX complex (τ3δδ′). Efficient primer elongation requires the presence of αϵ, β, and τ3δδ′. Pseudomonas aeruginosa αϵ can substitute completely for …
