Ceg 460/660-01: Introduction To Software Computer Engineering, Robert J. Weber

Computer Science & Engineering Syllabi

This course is concerned with the techniques of designing and constructing large programs. Some of the required basic concepts necessarily have to be developed using small programs as examples. To this extent, we also study programming-in-the-small. The overall objectives are to present an overview of issues in the development of software, to discuss terminology, to illustrate via example case studies, and to give sufficiently detailed advice on how to develop quality software. Hands-on experience is emphasized through the use of homework and a class project.

Computer Science & Engineering Syllabi

CS 466/666 is an introduction to formal language and automata theory. In this course we will examine two methods for defining and recognizing languages: generating languages using grammars and accepting languages using finite state machines. Along with presenting the fundamentals of these two topics, the course will develop and investigate the relationships between these approaches. The focus will be two important families of languages, the regular languages and the context-free languages. We will exhibit the importance of the formal techniques by considering their application to the definition of programming languages and pattern matching. The text will be the second edition …

On Cographic Matroids And Signed-Graphic Matroids, Dan Slilaty

Mathematics and Statistics Faculty Publications

We prove that a connected cographic matroid of a graph G is the bias matroid of a signed graph Σ iff G imbeds in the projective plane. In the case that G is nonplanar, we also show that Σ must be the projective-planar dual signed graph of an actual imbedding of G in the projective plane. As a corollary we get that, if G1, . . . , G29 denote the 29 nonseparable forbidden minors for projective-planar graphs, then the cographic matroids of G1, . . . , G29 are among the forbidden minors for the class of bias matroids …

Cyclic Difference Covers, K. T. Arasu, Surinder Sehgal

Mathematics and Statistics Faculty Publications

his paper studies cyclic difference covers in finite cyclic groups and develops several constructions and existence results for these combinatorial structures. The authors investigate conditions under which cyclic difference covers exist, derive new infinite families, and analyze connections with related objects such as difference sets and covering designs. Applications to combinatorial design theory and coding-related constructions are also discussed.

Multivariate Analysis Of Prokaryotic Amino Acid Usage Bias: A Computational Method For Understanding Protein Building Block Selection In Primitive Organisms, Douglas Whitmore Raiford Iii

Browse all Theses and Dissertations

Organisms expend a significant fraction of their overall energy budget in the creation of proteins, particularly for those that are produced in large quantities. Recent research has demonstrated that genes encoding these proteins are shaped by natural selection to produce the proteins with low cost building blocks (amino acids) whenever possible. The negative correlation between protein production rate and their energetic costs has been established for two bacterial genomes: Escherichia coli and Bacillus subtilis. This thesis provides scientific validation of this theory by automating the analysis and extending the research to additional genomes. Investigations into building block selection are highly …

Kierkegaard, Kafka, And The Strength Of “The Absurd” In Abraham’S Sacrifice Of Isaac, Robert A. Darrow

Browse all Theses and Dissertations

Søren Kierkegaard and Franz Kafka are admired by a wide spectrum of literary critics and philosophers for their common emphasis on subjectivity and the importance of the individual as opposed to the group. However, because the lives, attitudes, and writings of the two authors were very different, it is of interest to continue to examine their possible interrelationship. Both Kierkegaard and Kafka wrote about the biblical Abraham, and the resulting texts provide material for such an examination, organized around the idea of absurdity. “The absurd” is Kierkegaard’s synonym for the religious level of existence, described in detail in Fear and …

Electronic To Vibrational Energy Transfer From Cl* (3 2P1/2) To N2O(Ν1): Failure Of A Simple Kinetic Mechanism, Brian Brumfield

Browse all Theses and Dissertations

Experimental kinetic studies were carried out examining the electronic to vibrational (E-V) energy transfer from spin-orbit excited Cl*(3 ²P_1/2 , 882 cm^-1) to N₂O(ν₁) (symmetric stretch 1285 cm^-1). All studies were carried out in the gas phase at room temperature (298 ± 2 K). Cl* was generated by pulsed laser photolysis of ICl at 532 nm in the presence of various mixtures of N₂O, ICl,Ar, and SO₂. Time-resolved IR signals of N₂O(ν₁) fluorescence at 7.8 μm were analyzed to obtain rate coefficients …

Bismuth Triflate Catalyzed Friedel-Crafts Acylations Of Sydnones, Jennifer Ann Fisher

Browse all Theses and Dissertations

In the present work, suitably functionalized arylsydnones were used to synthesize a variety of 4-acylsydnones and diacyl sydnones, both as potential precursors to novel sydnoquinolines.The approach to the diacyl species is based on the discovery that activated sydnonesbrominate in both the 4 position of the sydnone ring and on the phenyl ring. Thus, it seemed likely that Friedel-Crafts reactions on an activated sydnone would give diacylated species for McMurray coupling to sydnoquinolines. Friedel-Crafts acylations on the 4 position of the sydnone ring have been achieved in high yields using 4 equivalents of various alkyl anhydrides, 25 mol % of bismuth …

Pattern Recognition Via Machine Learning With Genetic Decision-Programming, Carl C. Hoff

Browse all Theses and Dissertations

In the intersection of pattern recognition, machine learning, and evolutionary computation is a new search technique by which computers might program themselves. That technique is called genetic decision-programming. A computer can gain the ability to distinguish among the things that it needs to recognize by using genetic decision-programming for pattern discovery and concept learning. Those patterns and concepts can be easily encoded in the spines of a decision program (tree or diagram). A spine consists of two parts: (1) the test-outcome pairs along a path from the program's root to any of its leaves and (2) the conclusion in that …

Nichtmonotone, Neuro-Symbolische Und Begriffliche Wissensverarbeitung, Pascal Hitzler

Computer Science and Engineering Faculty Publications

Diese Schrift dient dem Bericht uber die Hauptaspekte meiner Forschertatigkeit an der TU Dresden seit der Promotion. In diesen dreieinhalb Jahren war es mein Bestreben, selbststandig aktuelle, theoretisch fundierte und anwendungsbezogene Fragestellungen zu entwickeln und zu verfolgen.

Naturgemaß war meine Forschung in dieser Zeit vor allem zu Anfang sehr explorativ. Meine Suche konzentrierte sich dabei auf das Herausarbeiten theoretischer Zusammenhange. Ob ich einen Ansatz dann weiterverfolgte entschied sich anschließend aufgrund einer Evaluation aus angewandter Sicht.

Die in dieser Schrift dargestellten Forschungsansatze gedenke ich in Zukunft fortzufuhren. Sie bilden die Keimzellen fur langfristig angelegte angewandte und theoretische Untersuchungen. Ich werde in …
