XBase: making your gigabyte disk queriable
Authors: Hongjun Lu, Guoren Wang, Ge Yu, Yubin Bao, Jianhua Lv, Yaxin Yu
Venue: Proceedings of the 2002 ACM SIGMOD international conference on Management of data (2002)

With the rapid development of the Internet and the World Wide Web (WWW), very large amount of information is available and ready for downloading, most of which are free of charge. At the same time, hard disks with large capacity are available at affordable prices. Most of us nowadays often dump a large number of various types of documents into our computers without much thinking. On the other hand, file systems have not changed too much during the past decades. Most of them organize files in directories that form a tree structure, and a file is identified by its name and pathname in the directory tree. Remembering name of files created sometime ago and digging them out from a disk with dozen gigabytes of data in hundred thousands of files becomes never an easy task. Tools available for helping such a search are still far from satisfactory.Xbase (XML-based document BASE) is a prototype system aiming at addressing the above problem. By XML-based, we meant that XML is used to define the metadata. The current version of XBase stores text-based files, including semi-structured data such as XML, HTML, plain text documents (e.g., tex files, computer programs) and those files that can be converted into text (e.g., postscript files, PDF files). In XBase, file name is optional. Users can just load a file into XBase without giving a name and the directory where it should be stored. XBase will automatically associate it with attributes such as the time when the file was saved, its source, its size and type, and etc., To retrieve those files, XBase provides three access methods, explorative browsing, querying using query languages, and keyword based search.
Anytime, Anywhere: Entrepreneurship and the Creation of a Wireless World
Authors: Louis Galambos, Eric John Abrahamson
Venue:  (2002)

:This book tells the story of the birth and explosion of cellular and wireless communications by focusing on one of the industry's pioneers, Sam Ginn. As deregulation and privatization swept the globe, Ginn and his team at AirTouch Communications fought for and won licenses on several continents. They built an amazingly successful business using strategic partnerships and joint ventures. In the process, they demonstrated a new model for global entrepreneurship in a high-tech, information-based economy. The combination of AirTouch with Vodafone in 1999, and of Vodafone with Mannesmann in Europe in 2000, has created the largest wireless business in the world. Vodafone also formed a joint venture with Bell Atlantic to create Verizon Wireless in 2000, the largest wireless company in the United States.

New applications of Taylor model methods
Authors: Kyoko Makino, Martin Berz
Venue: Automatic differentiation of algorithms: from simulation to optimization (2000)

Taylor model methods unify many concepts of high-order computational differentiation with verification approaches covering the Taylor reminder term. Not only do they provide local multivariate derivatives, they also allow for highly efficient and sharp verification. We present several recent results obtained with Taylor model methods, including verified optimization, verified quadrature and verified propagation of extended domains of initial conditions through ODEs, approaches towards verified solution of DAEs and PDEs. In all cases, the methods allow the development of new numeric-analytic tools that efficiently capitalize on the availability of derivatives and sharp inclusions over extended ranges. Applications of the methods are given, including global optimization, very high-dimensional numeric quadrature, particle accelerators, and dynamics of near-earth asteroids.

Galois connection, formal concepts and Galois lattice in real relations: application in a real classifier
Authors: Ali Jaoua, Samir Elloumi
Venue: Journal of Systems and Software (2002)

In this paper, we introduce the notion of a real set as an extension of a crisp and a fuzzy set by using sequences of intervals as membership degrees, instead of a single value in [0,1]. We also propose, to extend the notion of Galois connection in a real binary relation as well as the notions of rectangular relation, formal concept and Galois lattice. We present finally a real classifier based on this mathematical foundation.
A microarchitectural-level step-power analysis tool
Authors: Wael El-Essawy, David H. Albonesi, Balaram Sinharoy
Venue: Proceedings of the 2002 international symposium on Low power electronics and design (2002)

Clock gating is an effective means for reducing average power consumption. However, clock gating can exacerbate maximum cycle-to-cycle current swings, or the step-power (Ldi/dt) problem. We present a microarchitecture-level step-power simulator and demonstrate its use in exploring how design alternatives impact relative step-power levels. We show how the tool can be used to identify major sources of high microprocessor step-power events. Our experiments indicate that branch mispredictions are a major cause of high step-power occurrences. We also show that high step-power events are infrequent which suggest that architectural techniques may limit step-power at potentially low performance cost.

An approach to schedulability analysis of UML-based real-time systems design
Authors: Dongxi Jin, David C Levy
Venue: Proceedings of the 3rd international workshop on Software and performance (2002)

This paper presents an approach to analyzing the timing and schedulability performance of a system model designed with the Unified Modeling Language (UML). As demand grows for a better way of developing complex real-time (RT) software systems, object-oriented modeling and design has recently gained popularity in real-time circles. However, due to the timing constraints in RT systems, appropriate approaches are needed to complement the software design methods, so that the design model can be analyzed in terms of schedulability as early as possible during the high level design phase. Transaction spatial and temporal models are introduced in this paper, to provide a way of bridging object-oriented design models using UML and real-time schedulability analysis. Identifying the transactions starts with viewing UML models from the perspective of transactions. Based on the captured transactions, the transaction spatial model is explored by using the object sequence diagram, where the system behavior is decomposed into action-based transactions in terms of object and message inside the system. The transaction temporal model then is captured by analysis of the UML-based transaction spatial model, and a table of transactions and their timing is constructed from which end-to-end response times may be calculated. As a result, performance analysis can be conducted to the UML-based high level design model. To illustrate the approach, a velocity control system for a direct current (DC) motor is analyzed.

Real-time playback in animation systems
Authors: M. J. Potel
Venue: ACM SIGGRAPH Computer Graphics (1977)

A technique often employed in animated vector graphics involves the use of a real-time playback mechanism. This technique is an alternative when it is not possible to generate animation frames in real-time. Instead frames are compiled in advance at non-real-time rates, saved in secondary storage, and then played back at desired real-time rates. The basic design of such a playback mechanism will be considered, including discussions of synchronization, buffering, and blocking. Two special properties will be established for these systems: the conditions required to achieve real-time reversal in the direction of the playback sequence, and the existence of upstream/downstream effects, performance differences between directions in systems that are run "too fast."
