Cognitive coherence relations and hypertext: from cinematic patterns to scholarly discourse
Authors: Clara Mancini, Simon Shum Buckingham
Venue: Proceedings of the 12th ACM conference on Hypertext and Hypermedia (2001)

In previous work we argued that cinematic language may provide insights into the construction of narrative coherence in hypertext, and we identified in the shot juxtaposition of rhetorical patterns the source of coherence for cinematic discourse. Here we deepen our analysis, to show how the mechanisms that underpin cinematic rhetorical patterns are the same as those providing coherence in written text. We draw on computational and psycholinguistic analyses of texts which have derived a set of relationships that are termed Cognitive Coherence Relations (CCR). We validate this by re-expressing established cinematic patterns, and relations relevant to scholarly hypertext, in terms of CCR, and with this conceptual bridge in place, present examples to show how cinematic techniques could assist the presentation of scholarly discourse. This theoretical work also informs system design. We describe how an abstract relational layer based on CCR is being implemented as a semantic hypertext system to mediate scholarly discourse.
Cybercorp: The New Business Revolution
Authors: James Martin
Venue:  (1996)

:This book is both a warning and a dramatic inspiration to business people worldwide. We are in the early stages of a total revolution in the nature of corporations. Leaders who understand the revolution are building "cybercorps" - corporations which will take full advantage of cyberspace. It is a bloodless revolution but it will leave in its wake casualties and mayhem, as well as new types of success stories and the greatest growth rates in history. In cybercorp: the new business revolution, James Martin synthesizes a lifetime of research, experience, and thinking into the most accessible, hard-hitting, and visionary book he has ever produced. You'll find out: what the Internet and internal computer networks can do, and how the best companies are using them today; how to use cybermarketing to find new prospects, disseminate information to customers and salespeople, provide product support, get feedback, and more; how companies are reinventing themselves into a collection of value streams that deliver measurable - and extremely impressive - results; what "virtual" operations are, and how they are causing business partners to reinvent their relationships to respond rapidly to fast, fickle changes in the marketplace; how small companies are pooling their resources to create "cybercorp webs" capable of capturing the business of larger, more sluggish organizations; how successful companies are turning the workplace into a learning laboratory that constantly evolves, experiments - and achieves breakthrough developments; how obsolete management thinking can ruin all the technological strides a company has made - a subject most executives are loath to admit; and why the sledge-hammer approach of reengineering is detrimental to cybercorp thinking, and what senior management can do to ensure a successful culture change.
Early probabilistic noise estimation for capacitively coupled interconnects
Authors: Murat R Becer, David Blaauw, Ibrahim N. Hajj, Rajendran Panda
Venue: Proceedings of the 2002 international workshop on System-level interconnect prediction (2002)

One of the critical challenges in today's high performance IC design is to take noise into account as early as possible in the design cycle. Current noise analysis tools [1, 7} are effective at analyzing and identifying noise in the post-route design stage when detailed parasitic information is available. However, noise problems identified at this stage of design cycle are very difficult to fix due to the limited flexibility in the design and may cause additional iterations of routing and placement, adding costly delays to time-to-market. In this paper, we introduce an estimated, congestion-based pre-route noise analysis approach to identify post-route noise failures before the actual detailed route is completed. We introduce new methods to estimate the RC characteristics of victim and aggressor lines, their coupling capacitances and the aggressor transition times before routing is performed. The approach is based on congestion information obtained from a global router. Since the exact location and relative position of wires in the design is not yet available at this point, we propose a novel probabilistic method for capacitance extraction. We present results on two high performance microprocessors in 0.18&mgr; technology that demonstate the effectiveness of the proposed approac.

Effective nearest neighbor indexing with the euclidean metric
Authors: Sang-Wook Kim, Charu C. Aggarwal, Philip S. Yu
Venue: Proceedings of the tenth international conference on Information and knowledge management (2001)

The nearest neighbor search is an important operation widely-used in multimedia databases. In higher dimensions, most of previous methods for nearest neighbor search become inefficient and require to compute nearest neighbor distances to a large fraction of points in the space. In this paper, we present a new approach for processing nearest neighbor search with the Euclidean metric, which searches over only a small subset of the original space. This approach effectively approximates clusters by encapsulating them into geometrically regular shapes and also computes better upper and lower bounds of the distances from the query point to the clusters. For showing the effectiveness of the proposed approach, we perform extensive experiments. The results reveal that the proposed approach significantly outperforms the X-tree as well as the sequential scan.

Utility-based rate control in the Internet for elastic traffic
Authors: Richard J. La, Venkat Anantharam
Venue: IEEE/ACM Transactions on Networking (TON) (2002)

In a communication network, a good rate allocation algorithm should reflect the utilities of the users while being fair. We investigate this fundamental problem of achieving the system optimal rates in the sense of maximizing aggregate utility, in a distributed manner, using only the information available at the end hosts of the network. This is done by decomposing the overall system problem into subproblems for the network and for the individual users by introducing a pricing scheme. The users are to solve the problem of maximizing individual net utility, which is the utility less the amount they pay. We provide algorithms for the network to adjust its prices and the users to adjust their window sizes such that at an equilibrium the system optimum is achieved. Further, the equilibrium prices are such that the system optimum achieves weighted proportional fairness. It is notable that the update algorithms of the users do not require any explicit feedback from the network, rendering them easily deployable over the Internet. Our scheme is incentive compatible in that there is no benefit to the users to lie about their utilities.

Automatic Code Mapping on an Intelligent Memory Architecture
Authors: Yan Solihin, Jaejin Lee, Josep Torrellas
Venue: IEEE Transactions on Computers (2001)

This paper presents an algorithm to automatically map code on a generic intelligent memory system that consists of a high-end host processor and a simpler memory processor. To achieve high performance with this type of architecture, the code needs to be partitioned and scheduled such that each section is assigned to the processor on which it runs most efficiently. In addition, the two processors should overlap their execution as much as possible. With our algorithm, applications are mapped fully automatically using both static and dynamic information. Using a set of standard applications and a simulated architecture, we obtain average speedups of 1.7 for numerical applications and 1.2 for nonnumerical applications over a single host with plain memory. The speedups are very close and often higher than ideal speedups on a more expensive multiprocessor system composed of two identical host processors. Our work shows that heterogeneity can be cost-effectively exploited and represents one step toward effectively mapping code on heterogeneous intelligent memory systems.
Eye gaze correction for videoconferencing
Authors: Jason Jerald, Mike Daily
Venue: Proceedings of the 2002 symposium on Eye tracking research & applications (2002)

This paper describes a 2D videoconferencing system with eye gaze correction. Tracking the eyes and warping the eyes appropriately each frame appears to create natural eye contact between users. The geometry of the eyes as well as the displacement of the camera with the remote user's image determines the warp. We implement this system within software, not requiring any specialized hardware.
Systematic Design of Original and Modified Mastrovito Multipliers for General Irreducible Polynomials
Authors: Tong Zhang, Keshab K. Parhi
Venue: IEEE Transactions on Computers (2001)

This paper considers the design of bit-parallel dedicated finite field multipliers using standard basis. An explicit algorithm is proposed for efficient construction of Mastrovito product matrix, based on which we present a systematic design of Mastrovito multiplier applicable to $GF(2^m)$ generated by an arbitrary irreducible polynomial. This design effectively exploits the spatial correlation of elements in Mastrovito product matrix to reduce the complexity. Using a similar methodology, we propose a systematic design of modified Mastrovito multiplier, which is suitable for $GF(2^m)$ generated by high-Hamming weight irreducible polynomials. For both original and modified Mastrovito multipliers, the developed multiplier architectures are highly modular, which is desirable for VLSI hardware implementation. Applying the proposed algorithm and design approach, we study the Mastrovito multipliers for several special irreducible polynomials, such as trinomial and equally-spaced-polynomial, and the obtained complexity results match the best known results. Moreover, we have discovered several new special irreducible polynomials which also lead to low-complexity Mastrovito multipliers.
Oracle 8i & UNIX Performance Tuning
Authors: Ahmed Alomari
Venue:  (2000)

From the Book:PREFACE: PrefaceThe purpose of this book is to share my experiences in the areas of UNIX and Oracle performance and tuning. The chapters of this book provide a tremendous level of detail on the internal workings of the Oracle and UNIX kernels. The purpose of including so much detail is to give the reader a complete understanding of Oracle and UNIX. It is this understanding that will enable the reader to apply these concepts to specific applications and/or user environments, thus enabling the reader to maximize the performance of his or her environment.It is a key characteristic of this book that only the latest versions of Oracle and UNIX are discussed, such as Oracle8i and Solaris 8. This will enable the reader to focus on the functionality and enhancements of the new versions, avoiding discussion of old releases.Another characteristic of this book is that I have organized it into two major areas: data warehousing and Online Transaction Processing (OLTP). This edition of the book places more of an emphasis on application tuning since the application has the most control over the overall performance and scalability. It is important that the application be well designed and highly optimized.Recommended prerequisites for this book are a basic understanding of SQL, UNIX shell language, and experience with UNIX system and Oracle database administration.I have been a user of Oracle and UNIX across many different platforms including Sun, Sequent, HP, VAX/VMS, MS-DOS, Windows, and IBM RT. I hope you enjoy this book and find it useful in mastering the areas of performance and tuning. Good luck, and away wego!ComplementaryMaterialsAn ftp directory has been created to accompany this book at ftp://ftp.prenhall.com/pub/ptr/database.w-050/alomari. The directory contains white papers, utilities, and scripts available for download. The material in the ftp directory offers additional information associated with Oracle8 such as architecure white papers, product features, and performance tuning tips. There are also SQL scripts that can be used to monitor database performance.

Fuzzy Rule Based Computer Design, 1st edition
Authors: John R. Newport
Venue:  (1995)

:The purpose of this text is to provide a vision of such a system synthesis capability. This capability rests on three separate technologies. One basis of this vision is common design and analysis methods for hardware and software. A strong candidate for a common method is the object oriented approach. This technique emerged from the software arena as an answer to user needs for increased reliability in increasingly complex designs. Another basis of the vision is artificial intelligence (AI) technology. Despite some rough starts, AI is now mature enough to constitute a high powered, low risk alternative to classical, algorithmic logic. Fuzzy logic can extend the capabilities of AI expert systems beyond the limits of binary logic. The third element is the decreasing cost and increasing performance of computer work stations. These computers offer the speed, high-resolution graphics, and storage capacity to solve difficult engineering tasks at an affordable price.

A SIP-based conference control framework
Authors: Petri Koskelainen, Henning Schulzrinne, Xiaotao Wu
Venue: Proceedings of the 12th international workshop on Network and operating systems support for digital audio and video (2002)

Conference control has been an area of intensive research over the years but widely accepted robust and scalable solutions and standards are still lacking. The main conference control components are conference management and floor (resource) control. We identify the requirements for conference control and propose a component-based scalable conference control framework employing the Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) and the Simple Object Access Protocol (SOAP). The framework assumes a single control point, but our architecture can scale to large groups by distributing media via a tree-shaped hierarchy of conference servers.

Simulation methods for analysis of traffic processes in ATM networks
Authors: Kenneth Y. Jo, Christopher Munk
Venue: Proceedings of the 32nd conference on Winter simulation (2000)

This paper presents efficient simulation methods for analyzing modern, large-scale networks and evaluating their performance attributes. Characterizing traffic flows from multiple sources and applications is key in assessing overall network performance measures. It is essential to have quantitative network cost and performance measures in order to plan, design, and implement modern, large-scale networks such as the Advanced Distributed Learning Network (ADLN). ADLN requires integrated, multimedia network services for distributed, collaborative processing among globally dispersed users. ADLN will interconnect multiple categories of users and provide integrated voice, video, and data services, which can be enabled through the use of Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) technology (ATM Forum 1992). Through efficient multi-plexing and networking, ATM can interconnect multiple classes of users and transport ADLN applications cost-effectively with guaranteed per-formance. A combined approach of simulation and analysis is used to assess the performance of the large-scale, distributed network such as ADLN. Topics include the multi-source traffic characterization, performance analysis of ATM networks, capacity sizing, and optimal allocation of network resources.
