A Phase Ambiguity Resolution Technique For Tcm, William P. Osborne, Joel L. Whittington Oct 1992

A Phase Ambiguity Resolution Technique For Tcm, William P. Osborne, Joel L. Whittington

Conference Proceedings

This paper presents the simulation model, performance evaluation and hardware implementation of a technique to resolve phase ambiguity in trellis coded modulation (TCM) where the popular Viterbi algorithm is utilized. While this approach has been employed with BPSK and QPSK, its application to multilevel modulation schemes (M>4) is novel and of interest because it provides a viable alternative to rotationally invariant codes. This approach does not require any arithmetic computations and can be accomplished with minimal hardware. The results presented in this paper are being used to implement a 32 sector phase quantized TCM system utilizing 8PSK modulation.


Citizen Kane: American Heroes And Witnesses, Sidney Gottlieb Oct 1992

Citizen Kane: American Heroes And Witnesses, Sidney Gottlieb

Communication, Media & The Arts Faculty Publications

Citizen Kane is in no danger of being dislodged from its place as one of the most respected films of all time, but it is in danger of losing its vitality as a film with meaning as well as impressive visual appeal. When we call Kane to mind, we no doubt remember stunning scenes and cinematic images: the close-up of Kane's lips filling the screen, whispering "Rosebud"; the breakfast-table montage sequence that in a few short minutes tells virtually all we need to know of the history of Kane's first marriage; the deep-focus shots of Susan and Kane dwarfed by …

Prospective Overruling And The Judicial Role After "James B. Beam Co. V. Georgia", K. David Steele Oct 1992

Prospective Overruling And The Judicial Role After "James B. Beam Co. V. Georgia", K. David Steele

Vanderbilt Law Review

Was there ever such a profession as ours anyhow? We speak of ourselves as practicing law, as teaching it, as deciding it, and not one of us can say what law means."' Justice Cardozo's observation about the elusive nature of the American legal system lies at the heart of the controversy over retroactivity. Questions about whether judges may prospectively overrule the law raise fundamental issues concerning the nature of law and the proper role for the judiciary.

In 1991, the Supreme Court issued its latest opinion on prospective overruling and judicial rulemaking. In James B. Beam Distilling Co. v. Georgia, …

Process And Policy: Resource-Bounded Non-Demonstrative Reasoning, Ronald P. Loui Oct 1992

Process And Policy: Resource-Bounded Non-Demonstrative Reasoning, Ronald P. Loui

All Computer Science and Engineering Research

This paper investigates the appropriateness of formal dialectics as a basis for non-monotonic and defeasible reasoning that takes computational limits seriously. Rules that can come into conflict should be regarded as policies, which are inputs to deliberative processes. Dialectical protocols are appropriate for such deliberations when resources are bounded and search is serial. AI, it is claimed here, is now perfectly positioned to correct many misconceptions about reasoning that have resulted from mathematical logic's enormous success in this century: among them (1) that all reasons are demonstrative, (2) that rational belief is constrained, not constructed, (3) that process and disputation …


Architecture-Directed Refinement, Gruia-Catalin Roman, C. Donald Wilcox Oct 1992

Architecture-Directed Refinement, Gruia-Catalin Roman, C. Donald Wilcox

All Computer Science and Engineering Research

As critical computer systems continue to grow in complexity, the task of demonstrating that they are correct, that is, guaranteed to operate without failure, becomes more difficult. For this reason, research in software engineering has turned to formal methods, i.e. rigorous approaches to demonstrating the correctness of software systems. Unfortunately, the formal methods currently used for concurrent systems do no provide a mechanism for expressing and manipulating non-functional constraints formally. In this paper, we show that one class of non-functional constraints, the target architectures, can be expressed using formal notation (the UNITY proof logic). We then use a mixture of …
