Wormhole IP over (connectionless) ATM
Authors: Manolis G. H. Katevenis, Iakovos Mavroidis, Georgios Sapountzis, Eva Kalyvianaki, Ioannis Mavroidis, Georgios Glykopoulos
Venue: IEEE/ACM Transactions on Networking (TON) (2001)

High-speed switches and routers internally operate using fixed-size cells or segments; variable-size packets are segmented and later reassembled. Connectionless ATM was proposed to quickly carry IP packets segmented into cells (AAL5) using a number of hardware-managed ATM VCs. We show that this is analogous to wormhole routing. We modify this architecture to make it applicable to existing ATM equipment: we propose a low-cost, single-input, single-output Wormhole IP Router that functions as a VP/VC translation filter between ATM subnetworks. When compared to IP routers, the proposed architecture features simpler hardware and lower latency. When compared to software-based IP-over-ATM techniques, the new architecture avoids the overheads of a large number of labels, or the delays of establishing new flows in software after the first few packets have suffered considerable latencies. We simulated a wormhole IP routing filter, showing that a few tens of hardware-managed VCs per outgoing VP usually suffice. We built and successfully tested a prototype, operating at 2 &times; 155 Mb/s, using one field programmable gate array (FPGA) and DRAM. Simple analysis shows that operation at 10 Gb/s and beyond is feasible today.
Efficient Representation Scheme for Multidimensional Array Operations
Authors: Chun-Yuan Lin, Jen-Shiuh Liu, Yeh-Ching Chung
Venue: IEEE Transactions on Computers (2002)

Array operations are used in a large number of important scientific codes, such as molecular dynamics, finite element methods, climate modeling, etc. To implement these array operations efficiently, many methods have been proposed in the literature. However, the majority of these methods are focused on the two-dimensional arrays. When extended to higher dimensional arrays, these methods usually do not perform well. Hence, designing efficient algorithms for multidimensional array operations becomes an important issue. In this paper, we propose a new scheme, extended Karnaugh map representation (EKMR), for the multidimensional array representation. The main idea of the EKMR scheme is to represent a multidimensional array by a set of two-dimensional arrays. Hence, efficient algorithm design for multidimensional array operations becomes less complicated. To evaluate the proposed scheme, we design efficient algorithms for multidimensional array operations, matrix-matrix addition/subtraction and matrix-matrix multiplications, based on the EKMR and the traditional matrix representation (TMR) schemes. Both theoretical analysis and experimental test for these array operations were conducted. Since Fortran 90 provides a rich set of intrinsic functions for multidimensional array operations, in the experimental test, we also compare the performance of intrinsic functions provided by the Fortran 90 compiler and those based on the EKMR scheme. The experimental results show that the algorithms based on the EKMR scheme outperform those based on the TMR scheme and those provided by the Fortran 90 compiler.
Little guys make a big splash: PDA projects at Virginia Commonwealth University
Authors: Kay Sommers, Jane Hesler, Jim Bostick
Venue: Proceedings of the 29th annual ACM SIGUCCS conference on User services (2001)

PDAs are no longer just cute little gizmos to keep track of appointments and to-do lists. As these small computers become more powerful with every generation, the possibly of their being really useful in a meaningful way is also increasing. The medical campus of Virginia Commonwealth University has had a keen interest in handheld technology for a number of years, and there have been numerous projects developed that involve PDAs. The number of commercial and shareware health related applications available for PDAs has skyrocketed, which has added to the already growing interest on the medical campus. This paper will describe some of the innovative health- related PDA projects under way at VCU which include a project involving medical students who were given PDAs loaded with various medical reference software to use in their work with patients, a Nurse Anesthesia project that uses video clips of procedures downloaded to PDAs for quick reference by students in the field and a creative use of PDAs and scanners to record attendance during grand rounds in the Department of Surgery. In addition, this paper will describe efforts to stimulate interest in PDA technology on the academic campus of VCU by developing channels on the AvantGo web site to communicate content to students and faculty via their PDAs and by developing a suite of classroom management applications for the Palm OS. VCU is also implementing infrared kiosks around campus so that mobile PDA users can easily HotSync to the network to use email and download web clipping content. Other projects are under discussion such as the possibility of hosting a higher education PDA conference at which presentations can be made and ideas shared.

A user-friendly formal requirements specification method
Authors: Shaoying Liu
Venue: Proceedings of the 30th annual Southeast regional conference (1992)

As formal methods are increasingly used in the development of industrial scale software systems, there is a growing awareness of the need to integrate the formal notations with existing structured software development methods. In order to make requirements analysis both comprehensible and rigorous, a User-Friendly Formal Requirements Specification Method is proposed in this paper by combining and extending DeMarco data flow diagrams with VDM (Vienna Development Method). The specifications produced using this method possess good readability, a well-designed structuring mechanism and precise semantics. The significant progress presented in this paper is to develop a verified analysis approach based on the concept of consistency checking for guaranteeing the correctness of analysis steps.
MPEG-4 BIFS streaming of large virtual environments and their animation on the web
Authors: Mojtaba Hosseini, Nicolas D. Georganas
Venue: Proceedings of the seventh international conference on 3D Web technology (2002)

Although the Virtual Reality Modeling Language has made viewing 3D content on the web possible, remotely accessing large and complex 3D worlds requires a great deal of bandwidth. In the absence of such bandwidth users will suffer substantial latency in receiving the entire scene before they are able to view and interact with it. Streaming the 3D content and displaying the parts currently available while allowing users to interact with and navigate through the world reduces the time users have to wait in order to become involved in the virtual scene and hence improves their experience. This paper presents the use of the MPEG-4 standard for streaming of 3D worlds and the corresponding animation over the web while allowing users navigation and manipulation of the content, as it becomes available.
PageRate: counting Web users' votes
Authors: Jianhan Zhu, Jun Hong, John G. Hughes
Venue: Proceedings of the 12th ACM conference on Hypertext and Hypermedia (2001)

We propose a PageRate method to give Web pages on a Web site ratings based on the Web link structure and user usage data, which are both recorded in the Web log files. The method is an improvement over PageRank [1, 6]. PageRate can be used to objectively evaluate the importance of pages. A PageClustering algorithm is proposed to cluster Web pages with similar incoming links and ratings. The results are used to integrate with search results returned by search engines.

The effect of writing with computers versus handwriting on the writing achievement of first-graders
Authors: Manuel T. Barrera,  III, Audrey C. Rule, Afton Diemart
Venue: Information Technology in Childhood Education Annual (2001)

The written work of 18 first-grade students of mixed ability was compared under two conditions: word processing with computer writing programs and writing by hand. An intact first-grade classroom alternately used computers and handwriting to produce writing samples over six months of a regular school year. Additionally, event recording of academic engaged behavior was conducted for each different writing condition. Over 750 writing samples, distributed between computer and handwriting conditions, were analyzed using repeated measures analysis of variance. Students exhibited significant differences favoring use of computers over handwriting despite no differences observed in off-task behavior. The significance of these results is discussed.

Cognitive styles and hypermedia navigation: development of a learning model
Authors: Sherry Y. Chen, Robert D. Macredie
Venue: Journal of the American Society for Information Science and Technology (2002)

There has been an increased growth in the use of hypermedia to deliver learning and teaching material. However, much remains to be learned about how different learners perceive such systems. Therefore, it is essential to build robust learning models to illustrate how hypermedia features are experienced by different learners. Research into individual differences suggests cognitive styles have a significant effect on student learning in hypermedia systems. In particular, Witkin's Field Dependence has been extensively examined in previous studies. This article reviews the published findings from empirical studies of hypermedia learning. Specifically, the review classifies the research into five themes: nonlinear learning, learner control, navigation in hyperspace, matching and mismatching, and learning effectiveness. A learning model, developed from an analysis of findings of the previous studies, is presented. Finally, implications for the design of hypermedia learning systems are discussed.

Semiconductor manufacturing material handling systems: integrating dynamic fab capacity and automation models for 300mm semiconductor manufacturing
Authors: Chad D. DeJong, Seth A. Fischbein
Venue: Proceedings of the 32nd conference on Winter simulation (2000)

Semiconductor fabrication facilities (fabs) continue to expand in both complexity and volume. As a result, integrated models are required to determine even high level impacts to key success indicators. In order to gain insight into how the components of a factory impact performance metrics, Intel uses an integrated discrete-event simulation modeling approach. Two models, one fab capacity and one automation model, are used. This paper discusses the methodology for building and integrating both models, and the results from using this method.Both the fab capacity and automation models have a variety of input parameters that are required to drive the simulation. In addition, each model produces output parameters, some of which are used as inputs to the other model. An iterative feedback technique eventually results in a convergence on the appropriate data to feed the fab capacity model, which enables Intel to determine the impact of automation on 300mm wafer semiconductor manufacturing, and predict factory performance. Intel's approach provides the capability to use the models in stand-alone mode for specific fab-only or automation-only analyses, and also to take on any number of analyses via model communication. Intel continues to search for new applications for these merged models to answer strategic operational questions.
