Weight Distributions Of Some Classes Of Binary Cyclic Codes, Carlos R.P. Hartmann, J. R. Riek Jr., Ralph J. Longobardi

Electrical Engineering and Computer Science - Technical Reports

Let h1(x)h2(x) be the parity check polynomial of a binary cyclic code. This article presents a formula for decomposing words in the code as sums of multiples of words in the codes whose parity check polynomials are h1(x) and h2(x). This decomposition provides information about the weight distribution of the code.

Bayesian Confidence Limits For The Reliability Of Mixed Cascade And Parallel Independent Exponential Subsystems, James K. Byers, Ronald W. Skeith, Melvin D. Springer

Computer Science Faculty Research & Creative Works

This paper deals with the theoretical problem of deriving Bayesian confidence intervals for the reliability of a system consisting of both cascade and parallel subsystems where each subsystem is independent and has an exponential failure probability density function (pdf). This approach is applicable when test data are available for each individual subsystem and not for the entire system. The Mellin integral transform is used to analyze the system in a step-by-step procedure until the posterior pdf of the system reliability is obtained. The posterior cumulative distribution function is then obtained in the usual manner by integrating the pdf, which serves …

Towards A Theory Of Universal Speed-Independent Modules, Robert M. Keller

All HMC Faculty Publications and Research

Of concern here are asynchronous modules, i.e., those whose activity is regulated by initiation and completion signals with no clocks being present. First a number of operating conditions are described that are deemed essential or useful in a system of asynchronous modules, while retaining an air of independence of particular hardware implementations as much as possible. Second, some results are presented concerning sets of modules that are universal with respect to these conditions. That is, from these sets any arbitrarily complex module may be constructed as a network. It is stipulated that such constructions be speed independent, i.e., independent of …

Ua35/11 Student Honors Research Bulletin, Vol. Ii, Wku Honors Program

WKU Administration Documents

Articles written by honors program students. They were originally research projects, class papers or essays written for academic credit, but in each case the student has done further work editing and improving his or her manuscript for this publication. The articles represent a broad range of interests and disciplines, and they indicate a healthy attempt on the part of at least some students to dig for deeper knowledge and understanding than is usually associated with undergraduate study.

Statistical Modelling Of Computer Systems: A Survey, Amrit L. Goel, Anand M. Joglekar

Electrical Engineering and Computer Science - Technical Reports

This paper briefly surveys the data dependent statistical methods useful for computer systems modelling. The techniques are classified according to their applicability toward comparison, tuning and design of computer systems. A review of papers dealing with statistical modelling of computer systems is presented and a comprehensive bibliography is included to provide a useful source of reference toward the present and potential applications of statistical methods for computer system modelling.

A Numerical Study Of Ordinary Differential Equations With Periodic Coefficients, Richard Bruce Schuessler

Masters Theses

"In this thesis a method for solving ordinary differential equations with periodic coefficients is derived. In addition, by utilization of Floquet theory, a theorem is given by which it is possible to determine the stability of the zero solution. Error bounds are given for the method and for the two dimensional case bounds are given for the error in the eigenvalues. Several numerical examples are given to illustrate the method"--Abstract, page ii.

An Algorithm For Minimizing The Riding Time Of Students On School Buses., Dennis Ray Morgan

Masters Theses

"This thesis presents an algorithm which selects from a given set of stops a subset of stops corresponding to a given bus which minimize the riding time of students in going to and from school. The time required in picking up students at their stops and delivering them to school is analyzed. An example is given which illustrates the formulation of a problem and the results obtained from the solution. Finally, the program which was used in the solution of the problem is given along with its implementation"-- Abstract, p. ii

Comparison Of Scatter Storage Techniques Using An Analysis Of Variance Model, Robert Lee Kitsch

Masters Theses

"An analysis of variance model is developed to determine if a significant difference exists between various scatter storage techniques. The model is a two-factor hierarchical mixed design with each combination of transformation and search method considered as a treatment. The data used in the analysis is obtained from a computer program which provides statistics on the number of probes needed to load the (k+l)st item into a table for the different treatments. An ANOVA table was then computed for various load factors.

A significant difference among the treatments was detected for load factors above .4. Comparison of individual treatments using …

A Simulator For The Ibm 3705 Communications Controller, J. William Strider

Graduate Theses, Dissertations, and Problem Reports (ETD)

This paper describes a computer program which was developed to simulate the IBM 3705 Communications Controller, using the IBM System/360 and System/370 computers. The architecture of the 3705 is discussed in some detail, and the structure of the simulator is described. Future enhancements to the present program are suggested, along with possible applications.

The Construction Of Two Prototype Multi-Storey Air-Supported Buildings, Jens G. Pohl, James Montero

Collaborative Agent Design (CAD) Research Center

To treat a multi-storey building as a large, inflatable container forces the architect to consider design and construction criteria foreign to the building industry at large. While satisfactory progress has been made in the development of theoretical solutions for problems dealing with the structural and planning implications of a hyperbaric building environment, the time has come to consider practical issues.

This paper discusses the design, construction and operation of two prototype, multi-storey, air-supported buildings. The first building was completed in November, 1972 at the School of Building, University of New South Wales, Australia, and the second building was completed in …

Are The Needs Of Industry For Data Processing Programmers Being Adequately Supported By Technical Training Programs In Oklahoma, Dale I. Sare

Electronic Theses & Dissertations

In 1970 over 40,000 computers were in use in the United States and 1,000 more on order from manufacturers. Every major newspaper had published at least one news article or editorial about computers during 1970. These articles reported how computers function, the speed at which they function, their limitations and how they have, and are continuing to become, a complex part of the business world and social affairs of man.
