Learning-Assisted Schedulability Analysis: Opportunities And Limitations, Sanjoy Baruah, Pontus Ekberg, Marion Sudvarg
Computer Science Faculty Research & Creative Works
We present the first (to our knowledge) Deep-Learning based framework for real-time schedulability-analysis that guarantees to never incorrectly mis-classify an unschedulable system as being schedulable, and is hence suitable for use in safety-critical scenarios. We relate applicability of this framework to well-understood concepts in computational complexity theory: membership in the complexity class NP. We apply the framework upon the widely-studied schedulability analysis problems of determining whether a given constrained-deadline sporadic task system is schedulable on a preemptive uniprocessor under both Deadline-Monotonic and EDF scheduling. As a proof-of-concept, we implement our framework for Deadline-Monotonic scheduling, and demonstrate that it has a …

Connected-Component Labeling Using Hls For High-Energy Particle Physics Instruments, Nick Song, Marion Sudvarg, Roger Chamberlain
Computer Science Faculty Research & Creative Works
Many instruments used in high-energy particle physics observations, e.g., gamma-ray telescopes, use FPGAs for front-end signal processing of raw sensor data. The use of high-level synthesis (HLS) to express the signal processing algorithms has the potential to significantly reduce development time for new instruments of this type. We describe our experience with one of the computational stages in the signal processing pipeline, island detection, exploring its implementation across multiple configurations: 1D versus 2D islands, and 4-way versus 8-way connected-component labeling (CCL) in the 2D configuration. We report resource usage and performance for both configurations of 2D island detection, including the …

Modeling And Optimizing Real-Time Telescope Interaction For Multi-Wavelength Observation Of Gamma-Ray Bursts, Ye Htet, Marion Sudvarg, Honghao Yang, Jeremy Buhler, Roger Chamberlain, James Buckley
Computer Science Faculty Research & Creative Works
Multi-wavelength observation of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) requires real-time interaction among multiple telescopes. A gamma-ray telescope detects and localizes a GRB in the sky and must then communicate with an optical telescope to direct the latter toward the GRB as quickly as possible. We previously developed software for ADAPT, a suborbital gamma-ray telescope, to localize GRBs in real time, on a timescale shorter than that of the GRB itself. This work therefore studies progressive localization, in which ADAPT computes a series of increasingly accurate location estimates during a GRB to enable a partner instrument to more rapidly find it. We describe …

The Problem Of Identification Of Linear Stationary Objects With Distributed Parameters By Their Experimental Transient Characteristics, Miraziz Vorisovich Sagatov
Chemical Technology, Control and Management
A wide class of control system elements can be described with reasonable accuracy by the concept of a linear stationary dynamic object. Several mathematical descriptions of such an object are known. The traditional mathematical model is a high-order ordinary linear differential equation. In the Laplace image space, this corresponds to a fractional-rational transfer function. The latter can be decomposed into elementary fractions. Then, using the convolution theorem and tables of elementary Laplace transform functions, one can access the originals. It is crucial to ensure precise alignment of the parameters of the mathematical model of the object used in the corrector …

Journal of Informatics and Web Engineering
This study provides a quantitative framework for wellbeing outcome prediction through intentional cognitive pattern alteration. We demonstrated 81.67% accurate prediction of wellbeing states, in a three-level classification (Low, Medium, High), using a Random Forest classifier with 16 features from psychological, physiological, and behavioural metrics. Our model singles out the gratitude cultivation (21.3%) and peace duration (23.7%) as the strongest predictors of positive well-being outcomes, which provides empirical support to traditional approaches of cognitive training with empirical evidence. Analysis of 1,000 synthetic cases shows that consistent practice of positive thought patterns over 3-6 months can strongly shift wellbeing states, with key …

Optimised Heterogeneous Handover In Mobile Ipv6 Using Enhanced Predictive Fast Proxy With Media Independent Handover (Mih) Support, Aliyu Aminu Abdulhadi, Nura Mukhtar
Journal of Informatics and Web Engineering
In wireless networks, handover performance is essential for enabling real-time traffic applications. Long handover delays make it impossible for a Mobile Node (MN) to send and receive data packets, which is very undesirable for real-time applications like video conferencing and VoIP. Therefore, in order to guarantee better handover performance, decreasing handover duration is crucial. The Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) has standardized Fast Proxy Mobile IPv6 (FPMIPv6) as an enhancement to the novel Proxy Mobile IPv6 (PMIPv6) to attain better handover performance. FPMIPv6 functions in two modes: predictive and reactive, using a link-layer triggering mechanism. The predictive mode uses link-layer …
