Development of a standard format for eBooks
Authors: Won-Sung Sohn, Seung-Kyu Ko, Yoon-Chui Choy, Kyong-Ho Lee, Sung-Hyuk Kim, Soon-Bum Lim
Venue: Proceedings of the 2002 ACM symposium on Applied computing (2002)

Since an electronic book (eBook) has various advantages over a paper-based book, there is a growing interest in eBooks. EBook industries are using different document formats creating difficulties in the interoperability and interchangeability of eBooks. The U.S. and Japan have realized the importance of a standard format for eBooks and developed such standards. Recently, Korea has also developed a standard format based on XML. The primary goal of this standard is to support the interchangeability of eBooks, reflect the characteristics of the Korean publication environment, simplify the creation process, and promote compatibility with other standards. It includes an extension mechanism for various document classes, and supports advanced style control such as vertical writing and multi-column based on XSL.

Integrating Priority with Share in the Priority-Based Weighted Fair Queuing Scheduler for Real-Time Networks
Authors: Song Wang, Yu-Chung Wang, Kwei-Jay Lin
Venue: Real-Time Systems (2002)

The Weighted Fair Queuing (WFQ) scheduler has been closely studied due to its desirable properties of bandwidth guarantee and bounded delay. However, the queuing delay bound of a communication session is tightly coupled with the session&rsquo;s allocated service share. To receive a low queuing delay, a session must reserve a high share. In this paper, we study a new fair queuing algorithm called Priority-based Weighted Fair Queuing (PWFQ). PWFQ combines a session&rsquo;s allocated share to achieve the bandwidth guarantee and the session&rsquo;s priority to adjust the delay bound inside a sliding window. The new algorithm decouples the delay from the service share so that a session with a low share but a high priority may still receive a small delay. We analyze the worst-case delay bound of PWFQ and propose a simple algorithm to assign session priorities.

The act of task difficulty and eye-movement frequency for the 'Oculo-motor indices'
Authors: Minoru Nakayama, Koji Takahashi, Yasutaka Shimizu
Venue: Proceedings of the 2002 symposium on Eye tracking research & applications (2002)

The oculo-motor re ects the viewer s ability to process visual information. This paper examines whether the oculo-motor was affected by two factors: rstly task dif culty and secondly eye-movement frequency. In this paper, oculo-motor indices were de ned as measurements of pupil size, blink and eye-movement. For the purpose of this study, two experiments were designed based on previous subsequential ocular tasks were subjects were required to solve a series of mathematical problems and to orally report their calculations.The results of this experiment found that pupil size and blink rate increased in response to task dif culty in the oral calculation group. In contrast however both the saccade occurrence rate and saccade length were found to decrease with the increased dif culty of the task. The results suggests that oculo-motor indices respond to task dif culty. Secondly, eye-movement frequencies were elicited by the switching frequency of a visual target. Pupil size and the saccade time were found to increase with the frequency however, blink and gazing time were found to decrease in response to the frequency. There was a negative correlation between blinking and gazing time. Additionally, the correlation between blinking and saccade time appeared in the higher frequencies.These results indicate the oculo-motor indices are affected by both task dif culty and eye-movement frequency. Furthermore, eye-movement frequency appears to play a different role than that of task dif culty.

The SCSI Bus and IDE Interface: Protocols, Applications and Programming, 2nd edition
Authors: Friedhelm Schmidt
Venue:  (1997)

:As the pace of change in business and technology continues to quicken, the business systems that are key to the enterprise's ability to adapt and prosper must also change rapidly. The expansion of enterprise computing into the world of the Internet makes the task of developing, deploying, and maintaining today's information systems even more challenging. With its modular approach to programming and capacity to manage complexity, object technology holds the key to success for enterprise computing to meet these challenges. Enterprise Computing with Objects helps the reader place rapidly evolving technologies-the Internet, the World Wide Web, distributed computing, object technology and client/server systems-in their appropriate context in relation to modern information systems. The authors distinguish what is essential from what is incidental, while imparting a clear understanding of how the underlying technologies fit together. The book examines essential topics, including data persistence, security, performance, scalability, and development tools. Even readers with existing experience in object technology or client/server programming can benefit from the perspectives offered here. With this book as an aid, designers and developers can better transition their information systems into the twenty-first century.
MPEG transmission schemes for a timed token medium access control network
Authors: Joseph Kee-Yin Ng
Venue: ACM SIGCOMM Computer Communication Review (1999)

This paper presents three transmission schemes to improve the transmission of MPEG video over a timed token medium access control (MAC) network. Multiple classes of MPEG video are used in the study. These data are captured from real video programmes and we categorized these video clips according to their traffic burstiness and workload characteristics. The performance measure of the timed token MAC network is in terms of the maximum number of MPEG video streams being transmitted without any frame missing its deadline. This simulation study observed that by employing the Regulated Scheme, we could improve the performance by 28 to 40%. When applying the Grouping Scheme for the MPEG transmission, we can improve the performance between 142 and 149%. When we combined the two schemes together, the Regulated Grouping Scheme can further improve the performance up to 153% which is a dramatic improvement over the original transmission scheme.
