He I Λ10830 As A Probe Of Winds In Accreting Young Stars, Suzan Edwards, William Fischer, John Kwan, L. Hillenbrand, Andrea K. Dupree Dec 2003

He I Λ10830 As A Probe Of Winds In Accreting Young Stars, Suzan Edwards, William Fischer, John Kwan, L. Hillenbrand, Andrea K. Dupree

Astronomy: Faculty Publications

He I 10830 profiles acquired with Keck's NIRSPEC for six young low-mass stars with high disk accretion rates (AS 353A, DG Tau, DL Tau, DR Tau, HL Tau, and SVS 13) provide new insight into accretion-driven winds. In four of the stars, the profiles have the signature of resonance scattering, and they possess a deep and broad blueshifted absorption that penetrates more than 50% into the 1 m continuum over a continuous range of velocities from near the stellar rest velocity to the terminal velocity of the wind, unlike inner wind signatures seen in other spectral features. This deep and …


The Simplepipe Toolset Manual, Vinayak Joshi, Mark A. Franklin Dec 2003

The Simplepipe Toolset Manual, Vinayak Joshi, Mark A. Franklin

All Computer Science and Engineering Research

SimplePipe is a simulation framework/tool for analyzing performance effects of alternative task allocations in network processors having multiple pipelines where pipeline stages are either processors or dedicated hardware functions. Tasks are defined in terms of sequence of separate C program executions with each sequence representing the functional requirements of a flow, where a flow is defined as the set of packets having the same processing requirements. The assignment of tasks to pipeline stages, selection of number of stages, and determination of processor cache sizes are important designing decisions impacting performance.

Limestone Wall Retreat In A Ceiling Cupola Controlled By Hydrothermal Degassing With Wall Condensation (Szunyogh Model), Baudouin Lismonde Dec 2003

Limestone Wall Retreat In A Ceiling Cupola Controlled By Hydrothermal Degassing With Wall Condensation (Szunyogh Model), Baudouin Lismonde

KIP Articles

Audra, Bigot and Monochain (2003) proposed an explanation for the development of a hydrothermal cave in Provence (France), referring to the Szunyogh model (1989). Dreybrodt (2003) then shows by calculations that this model is unlikely. We will discuss Dreybrodt's answer here. Our conclusions will ephasise that Dreybrodt's hypothesis (transient conduction in a semi-infinite solid) is not the only possibility. When other conditions are considered (steady-state conduction with constant temperature at a finite distance), this cupola-development model can be valid.

Patenting Computer Data Structures: The Ghost, The Machine And The Federal Circuit, Andrew Joseph Hollander Dec 2003

Patenting Computer Data Structures: The Ghost, The Machine And The Federal Circuit, Andrew Joseph Hollander

Duke Law & Technology Review

Courts view "data structures," the mechanism by which computers store data in meaningful relationships, differently than do computer scientists. While computer scientists recognize that data structures have aspects that are both physical (how they are stored in memory) and logical (the relationships among the stored information), the Federal Circuit, in its attempts to set clear standards of the scope of patentability of data structures, has not fully appreciated their dualistic nature. This i-brief explains what data structures are, explores how courts have wrestled with setting a limiting principle to determine their patentability, and discusses the resultant impact on claim drafting.


Shroud Nozzle For Gas Jet Control In An Extreme Ultraviolet Light, Roy Mcgregor, Charles Clendening Dec 2003

Shroud Nozzle For Gas Jet Control In An Extreme Ultraviolet Light, Roy Mcgregor, Charles Clendening

UCF Patents

A gas jet nozzle for an extreme-ultraviolet light source, including a housing having a front and back. The housing is coupleable to a primary gas source and a secondary gas source and is adapted to expel primary has and secondary gas from the housing front. The housing has a gas=expelling primary channel located centrally within the housing and a gas-expelling secondary channel proximate the primary channel. The primary channel may be circular and a secondary channel may be annular, surrounding the primary channel. A secondary gas stream expelled from the secondary channel restricts the lateral expansion of a primary gas …

The Effect Of Time Delays In The Stability Of Load Balancing Algorithms For Parallel Computations, Chaouki T. Abdallah, J. D. Birdwell, John Chiasson, Zhong Tang, Nivedita Alluri, Tsewei Wang Dec 2003

The Effect Of Time Delays In The Stability Of Load Balancing Algorithms For Parallel Computations, Chaouki T. Abdallah, J. D. Birdwell, John Chiasson, Zhong Tang, Nivedita Alluri, Tsewei Wang

Electrical & Computer Engineering Faculty Publications

Deterministic dynamic nonlinear time-delay systems are developed to model load balancing in a cluster of computer nodes used for parallel computations. The model is shown to be self consistent in that the queue lengths cannot go negative and the total number of tasks in all the queues are conserved (i.e., load balancing can neither create nor lose tasks). Further, it is shown that using the proposed load balancing algorithms, the system is stable. Experimental results are presented and compared with the predicted results from the analytical model. In particular, simulations of the models are compared with an experimental implementation of …


Quasi-Monte Carlo Methods In Robust Control Design, Chaouki T. Abdallah, Peter E. Hokayem Dec 2003

Quasi-Monte Carlo Methods In Robust Control Design, Chaouki T. Abdallah, Peter E. Hokayem

Electrical & Computer Engineering Faculty Publications

Many practical control problems are so complex that traditional analysis and design methods fail to solve. Consequently, sampling methods that provide approximate solutions to such difficult problems have emerged. In this paper we address the deterministic quasi-Monte Carlo method of sampling and attempt to impose bounds on the error involved in the evaluation of the quality of performance of a specific controller over the whole plant parameter uncertainty space.


Least Squares Support Vector Machines For Fixed-Step And Fixed-Set Cdma Power Control, Chaouki T. Abdallah, Judd A. Rohwer, Christos G. Christodoulou Dec 2003

Least Squares Support Vector Machines For Fixed-Step And Fixed-Set Cdma Power Control, Chaouki T. Abdallah, Judd A. Rohwer, Christos G. Christodoulou

Electrical & Computer Engineering Faculty Publications

This paper presents two machine learning based algorithms for CDMA power control. The least squares support vector machine (LS-SVM) algorithms classify eigenvalues estimates into sets of power control commands. A binary LS-SVM algorithm generates fixed step power control (FSPC) commands, while the one vs. one multiclass LS-SVM algorithm generates estimates for fixed set power control.

Re-Examining Vonnegut: Existential And Naturalistic Influences On The Author's Work, Marybeth Davis

Theses & Honors Papers

This thesis looks at several Vonnegut novels through both the lenses of existentialism and naturalism, claiming that each is just as important and present in his work as the other. It examines his life, as well, and how his experiences and observations on life tie into his writing.
