Distributed mediation of ambiguous context in aware environments
Authors: Anind Dey, Jennifer Mankoff, Gregory Abowd, Scott Carter
Venue: Proceedings of the 15th annual ACM symposium on User interface software and technology (2002)

Many context-aware services make the assumption that the context they use is completely accurate. However, in reality, both sensed and interpreted context is often ambiguous. A challenge facing the development of realistic and deployable context-aware services, therefore, is the ability to handle ambiguous context. In this paper, we describe an architecture that supports the building of context-aware services that assume context is ambiguous and allows for mediation of ambiguity by mobile users in aware environments. We illustrate the use of our architecture and evaluate it through three example context-aware services, a word predictor system, an In/Out Board, and a reminder tool.

A Third-Order Semidiscrete Central Scheme for Conservation Laws and Convection-Diffusion Equations
Authors: Alexander Kurganov, Doron Levy
Venue: SIAM Journal on Scientific Computing (2000)

We present a new third-order, semidiscrete, central method for approximating solutions to multidimensional systems of hyperbolic conservation laws, convection-diffusion equations, and related problems. Our method is a high-order extension of the recently proposed second-order, semidiscrete method in [A. Kurgonov and E. Tadmor, J. Comput Phys., 160 (2000) pp. 241--282].The method is derived independently of the specific piecewise polynomial reconstruction which is based on the previously computed cell-averages. We demonstrate our results by focusing on the new third-order central weighted essentially nonoscillatory (CWENO) reconstruction presented in [D. Levy, G. Puppo, and G. Russo, SIAM J. Sci. Comput., 21 (1999), pp. 294--322]. The numerical results we present show the desired accuracy, high resolution, and robustness of our method.

Supply Chain Networks and Electronic Commerce: A Theoretical Perspective
Authors: Anna Nagurney, Jon Loo, June Dong, Ding Zhang
Venue: Netnomics (2002)

In this paper, we develop a framework for the formulation, analysis, and computation of solutions to supply chain network problems in the presence of electronic commerce. Specifically, we consider manufacturers who are involved in the production of a homogeneous product and can now sell and have delivered the product not only to retailers but also directly to consumers. In addition, the manufacturers can transact with the retailers electronically. We assume that both the manufacturers and the retailers seek to maximize their profits, whereas the consumers take both the prices charged by the retailers and the manufacturers, along with the associated transaction costs, in making their consumption decisions. We identify the network structure of the problem, derive the equilibrium conditions, and establish the finite-dimensional variational inequality formulation. We then utilize variational inequality theory to obtain qualitative properties of the equilibrium pattern. In addition, we propose a continuous time adjustment process for the study of the disequilibrium dynamics and establish that the set of stationary points of the resulting i>projected dynamical system coincides with the set of solutions of the variational inequality problem. Finally, we apply an algorithm for the determination of equilibrium prices and product shipments in several supply chain examples. This paper synthesizes Business-to-Consumer (B2C) and Business-to-Business (B2B) decision-making in a supply chain context within the same framework.

Chocobo's Dungeon 2
Authors: Brady Games, Brady Publishing
Venue:  (2000)

From the Book:On a bright sunny day, Chocobo and Mog cross he entrance to what looks like a dungeon. The two adventurous friends enter and discover a dungeon unlike most others. It has disappearing staircases and randomly generated maps, and it's filled with unimaginable treasures. So begins Squaresoft's latest Adventure RPG, Chocobo's Dungeon 2. Filled with just as much intrigue and challenge as any Final Fantasy game, Chocobo's Dungeon 2 is a little different in that you'll find yourself in dungeons more often than not. With ever shifting map layouts and plenty of incredible features to explore and learn, this is one adventure that promises to be unlike all others. Because of the changing features in Chocobo's Dungeon 2 we've created a walkthrough that gives you the complete run-through of what you'll need before you head into each dungeon, what types of enemies you'll meet inside, and the ents that take place during your joury. Because we can't provide a precise course for maps that differ every time you play, you should pay close attention to "Game Basics," so that you're familiar enough with the controls to roll with the dangers you'll face. Good luck and enjoy!

Formal design and development of a Corba-based application for cooperative HTML group editing support
Authors: Etienne Roblet, Khalil Drira, Michel Diaz
Venue: Journal of Systems and Software (2002)

This paper presents SEdit, a formally designed and developed application for collaborative HTML group editing support. The design model separates coordination from cooperation and communication, allowing different cooperation interfaces (ASCII support and HTML support) to be integrated with the same coordination system. The coordination protocol allows different users to simultaneously work on different parts of the shared document. This protocol has been synthesized from a formal description based on graph grammars.
Validating firewalls using flow logics
Authors: Flemming Nielson, Hanne Riis Nielson, Ren&eacute Rydhorf Hansen
Venue: Theoretical Computer Science (2002)

The ambient calculus is a calculus of computation that allows active processes to communicate and to move between sites. A site is said to be a protective firewall whenever it denies entry to all attackers not possessing the required passwords. We devise a computationally sound test for validating the protectiveness of a proposed firewall and show how to perform the test in polynomial time. The first step is the definition of a flow logic for analysing the flow of control in mobile ambients; it amounts to a syntax-directed specification of the acceptability of a control flow estimate. The second step is to define a hardest attacker and to determine whether or not there exists a control flow estimate that shows the inability of the hardest attacker to enter; if such an estimate exists, then none of the infinitely many attackers can enter unless they contain at least one of the passwords, and consequently the firewall cannot contain any trap doors.
Cluster assignment for high-performance embedded VLIW processors
Authors: Viktor S. Lapinskii, Margarida F. Jacome, Gustavo A. De Veciana
Venue: ACM Transactions on Design Automation of Electronic Systems (TODAES) (2002)

Clustering is an effective method to increase the available parallelism in VLIW datapaths without incurring severe penalties associated with a large number of register file ports. Efficient utilization of a clustered datapath requires careful binding/assignment of operations to clusters. The article proposes a binding algorithm that effectively explores trade-offs between in-cluster operation serialization and delays associated with data transfers between clusters. Extensive experimental evidence is provided showing that the algorithm generates high quality solutions for representative kernels, with up to 33&percnt; improvement over a state-of-the-art binding algorithm.
Automatic generation of program specifications
Authors: Jeremy W. Nimmer, Michael D. Ernst
Venue: Proceedings of the 2002 ACM SIGSOFT international symposium on Software testing and analysis (2002)

Producing specifications by dynamic (runtime) analysis of program executions is potentially unsound, because the analyzed executions may not fully characterize all possible executions of the program. In practice, how accurate are the results of a dynamic analysis? This paper describes the results of an investigation into this question, determining how much specifications generalized from program runs must be changed in order to be verified by a static checker. Surprisingly, small test suites captured nearly all program behavior required by a specific type of static checking; the static checker guaranteed that the implementations satisfy the generated specifications, and ensured the absence of runtime exceptions. Measured against this verification task, the generated specifications scored over 90% on precision, a measure of soundness, and on recall, a measure of completeness.This is a positive result for testing, because it suggests that dynamic analyses can capture all semantic information of interest for certain applications. The experimental results demonstrate that a specific technique, dynamic invariant detection, is effective at generating consistent, sufficient specifications for use by a static checker. Finally, the research shows that combining static and dynamic analyses over program specifications has benefits for users of each technique, guaranteeing soundness of the dynamic analysis and lessening the annotation burden for users of the static analysis.

Direct integration of the Newton potential over cubes
Venue: Computing (2002)

In boundary element methods, the evaluation of the weakly singular integrals can be performed either a) numerically, b) symbolically, i.e., by explicit expressions, or c) in a combined manner. The explicit integration is of particular interest, when the integrals contain the singularity or if the singularity is rather close to the integration domain. In this paper we describe the explicit expressions for the sixfold volume integrals arising for the Newton potential, i.e., for a 1/r integrand. The volume elements are axi-parallel bricks. The sixfold integrals are typical for the Galerkin method. However, the threefold integral arising from collocation methods can be derived in the same way.

Lifting the Fog of War
Authors: William A. Owens, Ed Offley
Venue:  (2000)

:A brilliant white paper on the changing face of war and the future of the military. As fleet commander during the Gulf War and then as vice chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Admiral William A. Owens saw firsthand that "smart" missiles, instant communications, and high-tech surveillance have replaced troops, tanks, and battleships as the "weapons" with which wars are fought. In this incisive and fascinating book, Owens vividly imagines the future of war and the implications for military policy and everyday life. In the wars of the future, Owens contends, the United States' greatest asset will be satellite surveillance, which allows the military to survey entire countries with great precision, round the clock, in any weather. So the United States and its allies should "lift the fog of war" by creating a satellite network rather than continuing to build more planes and nuclear weapons-and should tailor its military budget accordingly. Owens also urges the military to cut back its reliance on defense contractors and instead form open relationships with electronics and technology companies. Owens is one of the true visionaries in the military world. His forward-looking book is a blueprint for a smaller, saner military, and it speaks directly about America's opportunities and responsibilities as the world's dominant military power. Index About the Authors: As vice chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff during the first Clinton administration, ADMIRAL WILLIAM A. OWENS was the United States' second-highest-ranking military official. He now heads Teledesic, a leading satellite communications company, and lives near Seatlle.
