Measurement on Tinetti test: instrumentation and procedures
Authors: R. Lombardi, A. Buizza, R. Gandolfi, C. Vignarelli, A. Guaita, L. Panella
Venue: Technology and Health Care (2001)

A measurement system and associate signal processing procedures for quantifying subject's performance during the performance-oriented assessment of balance as defined in Tinetti test (TT) is described. It is based on two inclinometers measuring trunk inclination in two orthogonal planes. Signals from the transducers are acquired by a PC through A/DC board. Signal processing consists in computing morphological parameters describing the main features of subject movement during the different TT maneuvers. The system is simple, cheap, user friendly, causes no discomfort to the patient and can easily be modified to comply with either new requirements or the needs of other performance tests dealing with trunk movement. Preliminary results of measurements on both normals and patients suggest the viability of this approach and the possibility of discriminating normal from abnormal performance, based on the values of the morphological parameters.

The catacomb project: building a user-centered portal the conversational way
Authors: Mark Ginsburg
Venue: Proceedings of the 4th international workshop on Web information and data management (2002)

Enterprise computing is marked by large-scale information systems, such as databases, document management, and groupware that present significant obstacles to consistent cross-application use: dissimilar user interfaces, incompatible security schemes, and the undesirable property of serving only parts of the user community (islands of use) and accessing only some of the enterprise knowledge assets (islands of information).World Wide Web (WWW) architectures do not solve this problem directly. WWW software components are combinable in many clever ways but until recently there were no specific efforts to solve the enterprise computing problems of islands of use and information.The situation is changing now with nascent efforts to architect Web Portal systems with small software modules, for example with Java "portlets" or the Python-based Zope framework [15]. These are program-centric approaches to coalesce information sources and unify the query interface without inherent user modeling. This paper discusses in detail an alternative: a user-centered, conversational portal which extends the ALICE chatbot technology platform and links the user conveniently to information resources, such as Web Services, with specialized query routing. The approach offers scalability, extensibility, and coordination between end-users and developers. A university Intranet implementation, the Catacomb system, is presented and discussed to illustrate the advantages of the conversational Web portal approach.

The Compactness of Interval Routing for Almost All Graphs
Authors: Cyril Gavoille, David Peleg
Venue: SIAM Journal on Computing (2002)

Interval routing is a compact way of representing routing tables on a graph. It is based on grouping together, in each node, destination addresses that use the same outgoing edge in the routing table. Such groups of addresses are represented by some intervals of consecutive integers. We show that almost all the graphs, i.e., a fraction of at least 1-1/n2 of all the n-node graphs, support a shortest path interval routing with three intervals per outgoing edge, even if the addresses of the nodes are arbitrarily fixed in advance and cannot be chosen by the designer of the routing scheme. In case the addresses are initialized randomly, we show that two intervals per outgoing edge suffice, and, conversely, that two intervals are required for almost all graphs. Finally, if the node addresses can be chosen as desired, we show how to design in polynomial time a shortest path interval routing with a single interval per outgoing edge for all but at most O(log3n) outgoing edges in each node. It follows that almost all graphs support a shortest path routing scheme which requires at most n+O(log4n) bits of routing information per node, improving on the previous upper bound.
ECVBA traffic-smoothing scheme for VBR media streams
Authors: Han-Chieh Chao, C. L. Hung, T. G. Tsuei
Venue: International Journal of Network Management (2002)

We propose an effective and efficient traffic-smoothing called the efficient changes and variability bandwidth allocation (ECVBA) scheme. This algorithm not only minimizes the peak rate of a stream but also increases the likelihood of successful VBR stream transmission. The main benefit is that it can immediately release bandwidth to other sites in the network.
Toward a proteome atlas for C. Elegans
Authors: Marc Vidal
Venue: Proceedings of the sixth annual international conference on Computational biology (2002)

The availability of complete genome sequences suggests new approaches for biological research to complement conventional genetics and biochemistry. In this context, the goals of this laboratory are to generate a comprehensive protein-protein interaction, or interactome, map for C. elegans and develop new concepts to integrate this map with other functions such as expression profiles (transcriptome), global phenotypic analysis (phenome), localization of expression projects localizome, etc... The resulting atlas of integrated maps should be valuable for the development of a systems biology approach to the study of development.

Mobile IP; Design Principles and Practices, 1st edition
Authors: Charles E. Perkins, Sherman R. Alpert, Bobby Woolf
Venue:  (1997)

From the Book:PREFACE: Two technological advances in recent years have radically altered the nature of computing for most computer users. The first is mobility. Laptop computers now represent the fastest growing segment of the computer market. Most observers expect that laptop computers, palmtop computers, networked personal digital assistants, and other such mobile computers will eventually represent the majority of the stations connected to the Internet. The advantage of mobile computing is that users may access all their applications from any location, whether they are in another building or a different state. The second advance is the widespread use of the Internet for communication, file transfer, and World Wide Web connectivity. This book describes how to make a mobile computer user a citizen of the Internet and how to access everything the information superhighway has to offer. The goal of this book is to provide you with an introduction to the design and implementation of Internet protocols that are useful for maintaining network connections even while moving from place to place. We look at several protocols including Mobile IP, route optimization, IP version 6, the Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol, encapsulation, source routing, and some related miscellaneous topics still under development. To take full advantage of the information in this book, you should be familiar with basic Internet protocols, such as the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP)/IP. Rich Stevens' book TCP/IP Illustrated, Volume 1: The Protocols and Douglas Comer's Internetworking with TCP/IP both provide excellent introductions to TCP/IP. As a developer of hardware and softwareproductsfor the Internet, you should have these books on your shelves. By the time you finish Mobile IP: Design Principles and Practices, you will be able to implement Mobile IP, and will have a clear understanding of the system impact of mobility. You will also understand the relevant protocols, and the traps and pitfalls that you are likely to encounter along the way. As you read the book, you will notice many italicized terms, some of which have conventional meanings that may be different than one's first impression (for example, foreign agent). These terms are defined in the Glossary: Please check definitions there, and be sure that you understand a term's meaning before moving on in the text. 0201634694P04062001

A Real-Time Approach to Process Control
Authors: William Y. Svrcek, Donald Mahoney, Brent Young
Venue:  (2000)

:A hands-on teaching and reference text for chemical engineersIn writing this book the authors' have focused exclusively on the vast majority of chemical engineering students who need a basic understanding of practical process control for their industrial careers. Traditionally process control has been taught using non-intuitive and highly mathematical techniques (Laplace and frequency-domain techniques). Aside from being difficult to master in a one-semester course, the traditional approach is of limited use for more complex process control problems encountered in the chemical processing industries. When designing and analyzing multi-loop control systems today, industry practitioners employ both steady-state and dynamic simulation-based methodologies. These 'real time' methods have now all but replaced the traditional approach.A Real Time Approach to Process Control provides the student with both a theoretical and practical introduction to this increasingly important approach. Assuming no prior knowledge of the subject, this text introduces all of the applied fundamentals of process control from instrumentation to process dynamics, PID loops and tuning, to distillation, multi-loop and plant-wide control. In addition, students come away with a working knowledge of the three most popular dynamic simulation packages. The text carefully balances theory and practice by offering students readings and lecture materials along with hands-on workshops that provide a 'virtual' process on which to experiment and from which to learn modern, real time control strategy development.Features: * The first and only textbook to use a completely real time approach. * Gives students theopportunity to understand and use HYSYS software. * Carefully designed workshops (tutorials) have been included to allow students to practice and apply the theory. * Includes many worked examples and student problems.
Determination of the eutectic structure in the Ag-Cu-Sn system
Authors: Daniel Lewis, Sarah Allen, Michael Notis, Adam Scotch
Venue: Journal of Electronic Materials (2002)

A search for lead-free solder alloys has produced an alloy in the Ag-Cu-Sn system. This alloy is of great importance to the soldering community, and proper determination of structure, processing, and properties will be significant. In the present study, tin-rich alloys were fabricated to better determine the much-debated morphology of secondary and tertiary phases in the eutectic structure. A deep etching procedure was used to reveal the growth structure of monovariant "eutectic-like" reactions as well as the ternary eutectic reaction. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and electron-probe microanalysis (EPMA) verified the three-phase nature of the eutectic. The rodlike eutectic structure in this system is consistent with the more simplified volume fraction and surface energy models that have been presented in the literature.
Isolating cause-effect chains from computer programs
Authors: Andreas Zeller
Venue: Proceedings of the 10th ACM SIGSOFT symposium on Foundations of software engineering (2002)

Consider the execution of a failing program as a sequence of program states. Each state induces the following state, up to the failure. Which variables and values of a program state are relevant for the failure? We show how the Delta Debugging algorithm isolates the relevant variables and values by systematically narrowing the state difference between a passing run and a failing run---by assessing the outcome of altered executions to determine wether a change in the program state makes a difference in the test outcome. Applying Delta Debugging to multiple states of the program automatically reveals the cause-effect chain of the failure---that is, the variables and values that caused the failure.In a case study, our prototype implementation successfully isolated the cause-effect chain for a failure of the GNU C compiler: "Initially, the C program to be compiled contained an addition of 1.0; this caused an addition operator in the intermediate RTL representation; this caused a cycle in the RTL tree---and this caused the compiler to crash."

Digital Aboriginal: The Direction of Business Now: Instinctive,Nomadic,and Ever-Changing
Authors: Mikela Tarlow, Philip Tarlow
Venue:  (2002)

:The Aborigine's view of the world suggests that all things are interconnected. Every relationship in turn influences every other relationship. Reality is not a fixed archetype, but a fluid and moving one that is continually shaped by the beliefs we have about it. Along these same lines, DIGITAL ABORIGINAL reveals how the modern-day business world organizes this unlimited range of possibilities and how we can reorganize and redirect our business plans merely by shifting our marketing beliefs. Based upon hundreds of real-life business examples and woven together with the survival tactics inherent in nomads, this book strikes at the very core of how business is conducted in today's world and how it is going to change in the years to come. The ability to move quickly, to change directions, and not be weighted down by permanent patterns-this is the essence of being aboriginal. Being digital in a fast-paced business environment demands much of the same kind of mentality. DIGITAL ABORIGINAL points the next wave of business marketers in the right direction.Author Biography: Mikela Tarlow and Philip Tarlow founded their company, Accelerating Results, 15 years ago.
