Documentation framework for computer network design reviews
- Trang 11-14
A documentation framework is proposed to assist quality assurance teams in the
analysis of complex computer network designs. The framework includes three
elements: (1) a requirements definition, (2) a design depiction, and (3) the
identification of potentially problematical interfaces. Requirements definition
begins with nominal statements describing general design requirements; these
statements u...

Handel-C for rapid prototyping of VLSI coprocessors for real time systems
- Trang 6-10
The current maturity of modern reconfigurable hardware elements such as field
programable gate arrays now makes it possible to utilize application-specific
reconfigurable coprocessor logic as part of real time system design. Such logic
has great potential to improve both the level of performance and run time
determinism of the system. It also gives the real time system designer the
capability of p...

Supervised control of cooperative multi-agent robotic vehicles
- Trang 386-390
In this paper, we address some of technical challenges associated with
supervised tactical mobility behaviors modeling and control of a group of
cooperative multi-agent robotic vehicles. Cooperative task planning of robotic
systems is a dynamic and complex problem and very challenging. The challenge
comes from many avenues including task decomposition, assignment, resource
allocation, and task exe...

Comparison of CORDIC algorithm implementations on FPGA families
- Trang 192-196
This paper presents different implementations of CORDIC algorithm on two field
programmable gate array (FPGA) families, namely Xilinx XC4000XLA and VIRTEX
series. Pipelining is used to improve the throughput and speed of the design.
Xilinx foundation computer aided design (CAD) tools are used for synthesis,
simulation and implementation on the FPGAs. A comparative study on the
performance of these...

Temperature control of a solar furnace with disturbance accommodating controller
- Trang 431-434
Presents an alternating controller for application of modified PI controllers to
a solar furnace. The modified controller designed was not robust as far as
disturbance was considered it also possesses a large settling time. The DAC has
been designed, incorporating feedforward action, anti-windup and slew rate
constraint handling mechanisms. The results show significant robustness of the
system/con...

Improved radar revisit time control to observe ballistic missile mode transitions
- Trang 349-353
For systems that can be modeled using multiple models and Markovian switching
probabilities, an interacting multiple model (IMM) estimator is a good approach
to state estimation and mode detection. For good mode detection, it is desirable
to maintain the mode-probability set so that one of the probabilities is near
unity. For radar tracking a ballistic missile, the mode probability is dependent
on...

A survey paper on independent component analysis
- Trang 239-242
Independent component analysis (ICA) is a statistical and computational
technique for revealing hidden or underlying factors in data. The independent
components or sources can be found using ICA provided that all components are
independent and non-Gaussian.

Increasing the efficiency of the use of wavelet-like finite element basis functions
- Trang 142-146
In this paper, some of the advantages and disadvantages of the use of
wavelet-like basis functions are discussed. Two modifications for mitigating
some of the disadvantages are considered. Numerical results obtained using these
modifications are presented.

Passive compliance synthesis
- Trang 214-218
In this article we survey some recent work on the problem of realizing a spatial
stiffness matrix with a parallel connection of springs. The techniques described
here can be used to realize an arbitrarily specified stiffness dominated spatial
impedance through the use of a mechanism constructed of passive springs. The
article includes a discussion on how to rind an optimal realization of a
positiv...
