Performance Of Combined Diversity Reception And Convolutional Coding For Qdpsk Land Mobile Radio, Huafei Zhou, Robert H. Deng, T. T. Tjhung
Performance Of Combined Diversity Reception And Convolutional Coding For Qdpsk Land Mobile Radio, Huafei Zhou, Robert H. Deng, T. T. Tjhung
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
Diversity reception and error correction coding are powerful techniques to combat multipath fading encountered in mobile radio communications. In order to improve the transmission performance of the ?/4-shift QDPSK signal in mobile radio channels, the authors propose a new scheme of combined coding and diversity reception, i.e., combination of diversity reception employing code combining (CC) and convolutional coding employing error-and erasure correction Viterbi decoding. They also consider another combination scheme, i.e., combination of diversity reception employing postdetection maximal ratio combining (MRC) and convolutional coding employing hard decision Viterbi decoding. They theoretically analyze the performance of the schemes taking into account …
Optimum Symbol-By-Symbol Detection Of Uncoded Digital Data Over The Gaussian Channel With Unknown Carrier Phase, Pooi Yuen Kam, Seng Siew Ng, Tock Soon Ng
Optimum Symbol-By-Symbol Detection Of Uncoded Digital Data Over The Gaussian Channel With Unknown Carrier Phase, Pooi Yuen Kam, Seng Siew Ng, Tock Soon Ng
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
A theory of optimum receiver design for symbol-by-symbol detection of an uncoded digital data sequence received over the Gaussian channel with unknown carrier phase is presented. Linear suppressed-carrier modulation is assumed. The work here aims at laying a conceptual foundation for optimum symbol-by-symbol detection, and rectifies existing approaches to the problem. The optimum receiver structure is obtained explicitly for an arbitrary carrier phase model, but its computational requirements are too heavy in general for any practical implementation. In one important special case, namely, the case in which the carrier phase can be treated as a constant over some K+1 symbol …

Managing Memory For Real-Time Queries, Hwee Hwa Pang, Michael J. Carey, Miron Livny
Managing Memory For Real-Time Queries, Hwee Hwa Pang, Michael J. Carey, Miron Livny
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
The demanding performance objectives that real-time database systems (RTDBS) face necessitate the use of priority resource scheduling. This paper introduces a Priority Memory Management (PMM) algorithm that is designed to schedule queries in RTDBS. PMM attempts to minimize the number of missed deadlines by adapting both its multiprogramming level and its memory allocation strategy to the characteristics of the offered workload. A series of simulation experiments confirms that PMM's admission control and memory allocation mechanisms are very effective for real-time query scheduling.

Myriad is a federated database system (FDBS) prototype being developed at the University of Minnesota. The main objective behind this prototyping effort is to provide "enterprise-wide" information by integrating independently developed databases while preserving the local autonomy of the component DBMSs and applications. In Myriad, multiple federations can be formed. A federation consists of an integrated database whose schema is represented as a set of integrated relations derived from the export relations provided by the component DBMSS. SQL, mainly due to its simplicity and popularity among database users and vendors, has been adopted to express global queries as well as …

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
Measurement of software development productivity is needed in order to control software costs, but it is discouragingly labor-intensive and expensive. Computer-aided software engineering (CASE) technologies-especially repository-based, integrated CASE-have the potential to support the automation of this measurement. We discuss the conceptual basis for the development of automated analyzers for function point and software reuse measurement for object-based CASE. Both analyzers take advantage of the existence of a representation of the application system that is stored within an object repository, and that contains the necessary information about the application system. We also discuss metrics for software reuse measurement, including reuse leverage, …

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
We have fully reconstructed decays of both B¯0 and B− mesons into final states containing either D, D*, D**, ψ, ψ’, or χc1 mesons. This allows us to obtain new results on many physics topics including branching ratios, tests of the factorization hypothesis, color suppression, resonant substructure, and the B−−B¯0 mass difference.
A Semantic Framework For Understanding The Behavior Of Modules And Classes In Programming Languages, Mahesh Dodani, Benjamin Kok Siew Gan
A Semantic Framework For Understanding The Behavior Of Modules And Classes In Programming Languages, Mahesh Dodani, Benjamin Kok Siew Gan
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
Recent trends in programming language design and implementation are aimed at integrating the two most important constructs to combat complexity: modules and classes. Both constructs provide encapsulation, a cornerstone of reliable programming. These constructs differ in their approach to building hierarchies: modules define visibility of components while classes define visibility of functionality. How can modules and classes be effectively integrated within a simple programming language? This question captures the essence of developing semantics of these constructs to ensure that they interact in a meaningful way. This paper develops a formal denotational semantic framework for understanding the interaction between classes and …

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
The branching fractions for the five-charged-particle decays of the τ lepton have been measured in e+e− annihilations using the CLEO II detector at the Cornell Electron Storage Ring. Assuming all charged particles to be pions, the results are B(3π−2π+≥0 neutrals ντ)=(0.097±0.005±0.011)%, B(3π−2π+ντ)=(0.077±0.005 ±0.009)%, B(3π−2π+π0ντ)=(0.019±0.004±0.004)%, and B(3π−2π+2π0ντ)B(3π−2π−π0ντ) is measured for the first time by exclusive π0 reconstruction. The results are compared with the predictions from the partially conserved-axial-current and conserved-vector-current hypotheses assuming isospin invariance.

Precision Measurement Of The Ds*+-Ds+ Mass Difference, Brown, D.; Et Al., M. Thulasidas
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
We have measured the vector-pseudoscalar mass splitting M(D*+s)-M(D+s)=144.22±0.47±0.37 MeV significantly more precisely than the previous world average. We minimize the systematic errors by also measuring the vector-pseudoscalar mass difference M(D*0)-M(D0) using the radiative decay D*0→D0γ, obtaining [M(D*+s)-M(D+s)]-[M(D*0)-M(D0)] =2.09±0.47±0.37 MeV. This is then combined with our previous high-precision measurement of M(D*0)-M(D0), which used the decay D*0→D0π0. We also measure the mass difference M(D+s)-M(D+)=99.5±0.6±0.3 MeV, using the φπ+ decay modes of the D+s and D+ mesons.
Resolving Attribute Incompatibility In Database Integration: An Evidential Reasoning Approach, Ee-Peng Lim, Shashi Shekhar
Resolving Attribute Incompatibility In Database Integration: An Evidential Reasoning Approach, Ee-Peng Lim, Shashi Shekhar
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
Resolving domain incompatibility among independently developed databases often involves uncertain information. DeMichiel (1989) showed that uncertain information can be generated by the mapping of conflicting attributes to a common domain, based on some domain knowledge. The authors show that uncertain information can also arise when the database integration process requires information not directly represented in the component databases, but can be obtained through some summary of data. They therefore propose an extended relational model based on Dempster-Shafer theory of evidence (1976) to incorporate such uncertain knowledge about the source databases. They also develop a full set of extended relational operations …
User-Database Interface: The Effect Of Abstraction Levels On Query Performance, Hock Chuan Chan, Kwok Kee Wei, Keng Siau
User-Database Interface: The Effect Of Abstraction Levels On Query Performance, Hock Chuan Chan, Kwok Kee Wei, Keng Siau
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
A common classification of data models is based on their abstraction levels: physical, logical and conceptual. The user-database interaction can be similarly classified. For the conceptual-level interaction, the user and the database exchange information on the user's world, e.g., information of entities, relationships, and attributes. For the logical-level interaction, the user and the database communicate based on concepts in the database system, e.g., relations and join operations. We expect users to be familiar with concepts in their world but not the concepts in the database system. This is especially so for infrequent or naive database users. The conceptual level should …
Asynchronous Transaction Commitment In Federated Database Systems, San-Yih Hwang, Ee Peng Lim, Jaideep Srivastava
Asynchronous Transaction Commitment In Federated Database Systems, San-Yih Hwang, Ee Peng Lim, Jaideep Srivastava
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
We propose a new (and restricted) model for global transactions which allows asynchronous commitment of subtransactions. Our model requires each global transaction to have a fixed structure with update to the data in at most one database. Based on this transaction model, we present two concurrency control algorithms, namely Asynchronous Site Graph and Asynchronous VirtGlobalSG, which employ asynchronous commitment and achieve global serializability. Compared to other proposed algorithms, our algorithms employ asynchronous commitment so as to increase transaction performance. Furthermore, our algorithms do not put restrictions on transaction data access or local histories.
A Probabilistic Approach To Fault Diagnosis In Linear Lightwave Networks, Robert H. Deng, A. A. Lazar, W. Wang
A Probabilistic Approach To Fault Diagnosis In Linear Lightwave Networks, Robert H. Deng, A. A. Lazar, W. Wang
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
The application of probabilistic reasoning to fault diagnosis in linear lightwave networks (LLNs) is investigated. The LLN inference model is represented by a Bayesian network (or causal network). An inference algorithm is proposed that is capable of conducting fault diagnosis (inference) with incomplete evidence and on an interactive basis. Two belief updating algorithms are presented which are used by the inference algorithm for performing fault diagnosis. The first belief updating algorithm is a simplified version of the one proposed by Pearl (1988) for singly connected inference models. The second belief updating algorithm applies to multiply connected inference models and is …
Dynamic Decision Modeling In Medicine: A Critique Of Existing Formalisms, Tze-Yun Leong
Dynamic Decision Modeling In Medicine: A Critique Of Existing Formalisms, Tze-Yun Leong
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
Dynamic decision models are frameworks for modeling and solving decision problems that take into explicit account the effects of time. These formalisms are based on structural and semantical extensions of conventional decision models, e.g., decision trees and influence diagrams, with the mathematical definitions of finite-state semi-Markov processes. This paper identifies the common theoretical basis of existing dynamic decision modeling formalisms, and compares and contrasts their applicability and efficiency. It also argues that a subclass of such dynamic decision problems can be formulated and solved more effectively with non-graphical techniques. Some insights gained from this exercise on automating the dynamic decision …

An Adaptive Coding Scheme With Code Combining For Mobile Radio Systems, Robert H. Deng, Huafei Zhou
An Adaptive Coding Scheme With Code Combining For Mobile Radio Systems, Robert H. Deng, Huafei Zhou
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
The authors propose and study an adaptive error-control coding scheme for binary digital FM (BFM) mobile radio transmission. The scheme employs code combining through packet retransmissions. The number of transmissions of a packet is in proportion to the channel fading/noise levels, which is in contrast to time diversity techniques where a fixed number of repetitions of a data packet is performed even in the absence of channel errors. Furthermore, the receiver uses received signal envelopes as channel state information, which significantly improves the throughput and bit error rate (BER) performance. Performance of the proposed scheme is analyzed for frequency-flat Rayleigh …
Multiple Query Optimization With Depth-First Branch-And-Bound, Ahmet Cosar, Ee Peng Lim, Jaideep Srivastava
Multiple Query Optimization With Depth-First Branch-And-Bound, Ahmet Cosar, Ee Peng Lim, Jaideep Srivastava
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
In certain database applications such as deductive databases, batch query processing, and recursive query processing etc., a single query can be transformed into a set ofclosely related database queries. Great benefits can be obtained by executing a group of related queries all together in a single unijied multi-plan instead of executing each query separately. In order to achieve this, Multiple Query Optimization (MQO) identifies common task(s) (e.g. common subezpressions, joins, etc.) among a set of query plans and creates a single unified plan (multiplan) which can be executed to obtain the required outputs forall queries at once. In this paper, …
Hybrid Arq Schemes For Point-To-Multipoint Communications Over Nonstationary Broadcast Channels, Robert H. Deng
Hybrid Arq Schemes For Point-To-Multipoint Communications Over Nonstationary Broadcast Channels, Robert H. Deng
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
Hybrid automatic-repeat-request (ARQ) error control schemes make use of both error detection and error correction in order to achieve high throughput and low undetected error probabilities on two way channels. Two hybrid ARQ schemes, termed hybrid go-back-N (HGB- N) and hybrid selective-repeat (HSR), are proposed for point-to-multipoint communications over broadcast channels. Both schemes incorporate a concatenated code for error correction and error detection. The performance study of the hybrid schemes is based on a two-state Markov model of a burst noise channel. An analytic solution is derived for the throughput efficiency of the HSR scheme, while approximations and computer simulation …

Entity Identification In Database Integration: An Evidential Reasoning Approach, Ee Peng Lim, Jaideep Srivastava
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
Entity identification is the problem of matching object instances from different databases which correspond to the same real-world entity. In this paper, we present a 2-step entity identification process in which attributes for matching tuples may be missing in certain tuples, and thus need to be derived prior to the matching. To match tuples, we require identity rules which specify the conditions to be satisfied by a pair of tuples, from different databases, before they can be considered as modeling the same real-world entity. We also introduce ILFD's (instance-level functional dependencies) as a form of inference rules which derive the …

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
This paper analyses the performance of two non-persistent CSMA/CD LANs linked by a bridge. The main function of the bridge is to buffer all internet work packets and forward them across networks to their destinations. From establishing and solving the main equations governing the behaviour of the bridged networks, the effects of design parameters such as the bridge buffer size and re-transmission back off delay on the performance of the system are studied. It is shown that if these parameters are chosen properly, better throughput and delay performance can be obtained, when compared with an equivalent CSMA/CD network without using …

Recognition of a human face is very easy even to a child, but is extremely difficult for computers. Here we present a Computer Aided Facial Image Identification, Retrieval and Inference System (CAFIIRIS) for criminal identification. The system stores and manages facial images and criminal records, providing necessary image and text processing, and editing tools. Inference of facial images of different ages of a person is also possible. Access to facial images can be done via key words, fuzzy descriptions, and visual browsing.
