Parallel Algorithms For Single-Layer Channel Routing, Ronald I. Greenberg, Shih-Chuan Hung, Jau-Der Shih
Parallel Algorithms For Single-Layer Channel Routing, Ronald I. Greenberg, Shih-Chuan Hung, Jau-Der Shih
Computer Science: Faculty Publications and Other Works
We provide efficient parallel algorithms for the minimum separation, offset range, and optimal offset problems for single-layer channel routing. We consider all the variations of these problems that are known to have linear- time sequential solutions rather than limiting attention to the "river-routing" context, where single-sided connections are disallowed. For the minimum separation problem, we obtain O(lgN) time on a CREW PRAM or O(lgN / lglgN) time on a (common) CRCW PRAM, both with optimal work (processor- time product) of O(N), where N is the number of terminals. For the offset range problem, we obtain the same time and processor …

Global State Predicates In Rough Real-Time, Jean Ann Mayo
Global State Predicates In Rough Real-Time, Jean Ann Mayo
Dissertations, Theses, and Masters Projects
Distributed systems are characterized by the fact that the constituent processes have neither common memory nor a common system clock. These processes communicate solely via message passing. While providing a number of benefits such as increased reliability, increased computational power, and geographic dispersion, this architecture significantly complicates many of the tasks of software development and verification, including evaluation of the program state. In the case of distributed systems, the program state is comprised of the local states of the constituent processes, as well as the state of the channels between processes, and is called the global state.;With no common system …
The Effects Of User Interface Metaphors On The Learnability Of Computer Systems By Field Dependent And Field Independent Computer Users, Robert N. Urwiler Jr.
The Effects Of User Interface Metaphors On The Learnability Of Computer Systems By Field Dependent And Field Independent Computer Users, Robert N. Urwiler Jr.
CCE Theses and Dissertations
This study was designed to assess the differences in the learning performance (speed and accuracy) with which field dependent and field independent subjects could complete a set of checkbook management tasks using software employing a user interface making strong use of common checkbook management metaphors versus software employing an interface adhering to a defacto industry standard-based graphical user interface design guideline. It was hypothesized that both field dependent and field independent users would complete tasks more quickly and accurately using both user interface types.
From a population of traditional and non-traditional college students, 64 individuals volunteered to participate in the …
Keyboardless Visual Programming Using Voice, Handwriting, And Gesture, Jennifer Leopold, A. Ambler
Keyboardless Visual Programming Using Voice, Handwriting, And Gesture, Jennifer Leopold, A. Ambler
Computer Science Faculty Research & Creative Works
Visual programming languages have facilitated the application development process, improving our ability to express programs, as well as our ability to view, edit and interact with them. Yet even in programming environments, productivity is restricted by the primary input sources: the mouse and the keyboard. As an alternative, we investigate a program development interface which responds to the most natural human communication technologies: voice, handwriting and gesture. Speech- and pen-based systems have yet to find broad acceptance in everyday life because they are insufficiently advantageous to overcome problems with reliability. However, we believe that a visual programming environment with a …
A Concurrency Control Algorithm For An Open And Safe Nested Transaction Model, Sanjay Kumar Madria
A Concurrency Control Algorithm For An Open And Safe Nested Transaction Model, Sanjay Kumar Madria
Computer Science Faculty Research & Creative Works
We present a concurrency control algorithm for an open and safe nested transaction model. We use prewrite operations in our model to increase the concurrency. Prewrite operations are modeled as subtransactions in the nested transaction tree. The subtransaction which initiates prewrite subtransactions are modelled as recovery point subtransaction. The recovery point subtransaction can release their locks before its ancestors commit. Thus, our model increases the concurrency in comparison to other nested transaction models. Our model is useful an environment of long-running transactions common in object oriented databases, computer aided design and in the software development process
High-Order Object Model Based Software Analysis, Xiaoqing Frank Liu, Hungwen Lin
High-Order Object Model Based Software Analysis, Xiaoqing Frank Liu, Hungwen Lin
Computer Science Faculty Research & Creative Works
The integration of object oriented modeling and structured analysis (SA) for developing a well structured object oriented software system is a challenge for requirements analysts and software designers. Some of the existing object oriented modeling techniques adopt approaches that are very different from SA, and others have clumsily stayed with SA after a few modifications. Our High Order Object Modeling Technique (HOOMT) however, attempts to strike a mean between both extremes while at the same time provides an effective modeling method. HOOMT consists of two models, the High Order Object Model and the Object Information Flow Model. By using the …

Especially with the introduction of search engines dealing with tremendous amount of textual information presented on the world wide web and the research on DNA sequencing, this problem deserves special attention and any algorithmic or hardware improvements to speed up the process will benefit these important applications. In this paper, we present three algorithms for string matching on reconfigurable mesh architectures. Given a text T of length n and a pattern P of …
Clusters Of Stars, Ileana Streinu
Clusters Of Stars, Ileana Streinu
Computer Science: Faculty Publications
We solve two open problems posed by Goodman and Pollack[GP84] about sets of signed circular permutations (clusters of stars) arising from generalized configurations of points: recognition and efficient reconstruction (drawing). As a biproduct we get an O(n2) space data structure constructible in O(n2) time, representing the order type of a (generalized) configuration of points and from which the orientation of each triple can be found in constant time, a problem posed in [EHN].
Vertex-Edge Pseudo-Visibility Graphs: Characterization And Recognition, Joseph O'Rourke, Ileana Streinu
Vertex-Edge Pseudo-Visibility Graphs: Characterization And Recognition, Joseph O'Rourke, Ileana Streinu
Computer Science: Faculty Publications
We extend the notion of polygon visibility graphs to pseudo-polygons defined on generalized configurations of points. We consider both vertex-to-vertex, as well as vertex-to-edge visibility in pseudo-polygons. We study the characterization and recognition problems for vertex-edge pseudo-visibility graphs. Given a bipartite graph G satisfying three simple properties, which can all be checked in polynomial time, we show that we can define a generalized configuration of points and a pseudo-polygon on it, so that its vertex-edge pseudo-visibility graph is G. This provides a full characterization of vertex-edge pseudo-visibility graphs and a polynomial-time algorithm for the decision problem. It also implies that …
Physical Media Independence: System Support For Dynamically Available Network Interfaces, Jon Inouye, Jim Binkley, Jonathan Walpole
Physical Media Independence: System Support For Dynamically Available Network Interfaces, Jon Inouye, Jim Binkley, Jonathan Walpole
Computer Science Faculty Publications and Presentations
Advances in hardware technology has fueled the proliferation of dynamically configurable network interface cards. This empowers mobile laptop users to select the most appropriate interface for their current environment. Unfortunately, the majority of system software remains "customized" for a particular network configuration, and assumes many network characteristics remain invariant over the runtime of the software. Physical Media Independence (PMI) is the concept of making assumptions about a particular device explicit, detecting events which invalidate these assumptions, and recovering once events are detected. This paper presents a model supporting PMI. Based on device availablilty, the model identifies implicit device-related assumptions made …
A Migratable User-Level Process Package For Pvm, Ravi Kunuru, Steve Otto, Jonathan Walpole
A Migratable User-Level Process Package For Pvm, Ravi Kunuru, Steve Otto, Jonathan Walpole
Computer Science Faculty Publications and Presentations
Shared, multi-user, workstation networks are characterized by unpredictable variability in system load. Further, the concept of workstation ownership is typically present. For efficient and unobtrusive computing in such environments, applications must not only overlap their computation with communication but also redistribute their computations adaptively based on changes in workstation availability and load. Managing these issues at application level leads to programs that are difficult to write and debug. In this paper, we present a system that manages this dynamic multi-processor environment while exporting a simple message-based programming model of a dedicated, distributed memory multiprocessor to applications. Programmers are thus insulated …

The Hadamard Matroid And An Anomaly In Its Single Element Extensions, C. H. Cooke
The Hadamard Matroid And An Anomaly In Its Single Element Extensions, C. H. Cooke
Mathematics & Statistics Faculty Publications
A nonstandard vector space is formulated, whose bases afford a representation of what is called a Hadamard matroid, Mp. For prime p, existence of Mp is equivalent to the existence of both a classical Hadamard matrix H(p,p) and a certain affine resolvable, balanced incomplete block design AR(p). An anomaly in the representable single element extension of a Hadamard matroid is discussed.

Does Good Project Management Ensure Successful Software Development?, Julie Lisa Eldridge
Theses : Honours
For many years the development of computer software has been plagued by poor customer satisfaction caused by missed schedules, underestimated budgets and the development of products which do not meet requirements. The ever increasing reliance on computers, as reported by Sommerville ''the result of the proliferation of computer systems into all aspects of life and business is that personal, corporate, national and international economies are [becoming] increasingly dependant on computers and software systems" ( 1992, p.2), calls for more stable software which can be developed within time and budget constraints. To achieve this, software development activities must be analysed and …

Formal accounts of negotiation tend to invoke the strategic models of conflict which have been impressively developed by game theorists in this half-century. For two decades, however, research on artificial intelligence (AI) has produced a different formal picture of the agent and of the rational deliberations of agents. AI's models are not based simply on intensities of preference and quantities of probability. AI's models consider that agents use language in various ways, that agents use and convey knowledge, that agents plan, search, focus, and argue. Agents can choose their language, apply their knowledge, change their plans, continue their search, shift …

As ATM moves closer to realizing the vision of ubiquitous broadband ISDN services, the design of switching systems takes on growing importance. This paper seeks to clarify the key architectural issues for ATM switching system design and provides a survey of the current state-of-the-art.
The Design And Performance Of A Real-Time Corba Event Service, Timothy H. Harrison, David L. Levine, Douglas C. Schmidt
The Design And Performance Of A Real-Time Corba Event Service, Timothy H. Harrison, David L. Levine, Douglas C. Schmidt
All Computer Science and Engineering Research
The CORBA Event Service provides a flexible model for asynchronous communication among objects.However, the standard CORBA Event Service specification lacks important features required by real-time applications. For instance, operational flight programs for fighter aircraft have complex real-time processing requirements. This paper describes the design and performance of an object-oriented, real-time implementation of the CORBA Event Service that is designed to meet these requirements. This paper makes three contributions to the design and performance measurement of object-oriented real-time systems. First, it illustrates how to extend the CORBA Event Service so that it is suitable for real-time systems. These extensions support periodic …
Computational Detection Of Cpg Islands In Dna, Eric C. Rouchka, Richard Mazzarella, David J. States
Computational Detection Of Cpg Islands In Dna, Eric C. Rouchka, Richard Mazzarella, David J. States
All Computer Science and Engineering Research
Regions of DNA rich in CpG dinucleotides, also known as CpG islands, are often located upstream of the transcription start side in both tissue specific and housekeeping genes. Overall, CPG dinucleotides are observed at a density of 25% the expected level from base composition alone, partially due to 5-methylcytosine decay (Bird, 1993). Since CpG dinucleotides typically occur with low frequency, CpG islands can be distinguished statistically in the genome. Our method of detecting CpG islands involves a heuristic algorithm employing classic changepoint methods and log-likelihood statistics. A Java applet has been created to allow for user interaction and visualization of …
Antiplane Shear Of A Strip Containing A Staggered Array Of Rigid Line Inclusions, G. Kerr, G. Melrose, J. Tweed
Antiplane Shear Of A Strip Containing A Staggered Array Of Rigid Line Inclusions, G. Kerr, G. Melrose, J. Tweed
Mathematics & Statistics Faculty Publications
Motivated by the increased use of fibre-reinforced materials, we illustrate how the effective elastic modulus of an isotropic and homogeneous material can be increased by the insertion of rigid inclusions. Specifically we consider the two-dimensional antiplane shear problem for a strip of material. The strip is reinforced by introducing two sets of ribbon-like, rigid inclusions perpendicular to the faces of the strip. The strip is then subjected to a prescribed uniform displacement difference between its faces, see Figure 1. it should be noted that the problem posed is equivalent to that of the uniform antiplane shear problem for an infinite …
Improved Heterogeneous Distance Functions, Tony R. Martinez, D. Randall Wilson
Improved Heterogeneous Distance Functions, Tony R. Martinez, D. Randall Wilson
Faculty Publications
Instance-based learning techniques typically handle continuous and linear input values well, but often do not handle nominal input attributes appropriately. The Value Difference Metric (VDM) was designed to find reasonable distance values between nominal attribute values, but it largely ignores continuous attributes, requiring discretization to map continuous values into nominal values. This paper proposes three new heterogeneous distance functions, called the Heterogeneous Value Difference Metric (HVDM), the Interpolated Value Difference Metric (IVDM), and the Windowed Value Difference Metric (WVDM). These new distance functions are designed to handle applications with nominal attributes, continuous attributes, or both. In experiments on 48 applications …

The development of such algorithms has been accompanied and motivated by a growing number of both potential and realized applications. This paper will attempt to survey some of these applications. Appendices include some more detailed examples.
Faster Ray Tracing Using Adaptive Grids, Thomas W. Sederberg, Krysztof S. Klimaszewski
Faster Ray Tracing Using Adaptive Grids, Thomas W. Sederberg, Krysztof S. Klimaszewski
Faculty Publications
A new hybrid approach is presented which outperforms the regular grid technique in scenes with highly irregular object distributions by a factor of hundreds, and combined with an area interpolator, by a factor of thousands. Much has been said about scene independence of different acceleration techniques and the alleged superiority of one approach over another. Several theoretical and practical studies conducted in the past have led to the same conclusion: a space partitioning method that allows the fastest rendering of one scene often fails with another. Specialization may be the answer. This has always been pursued, consciously or not, in …

The Effects Of Human-Computer Communication Mode, Task Complexity, And Desire For Control On Performance And Discourse Organization In An Adaptive Task, Cristina Bubb-Lewis
Psychology Theses & Dissertations
The present study examined how different communication patterns affected task performance with an adaptive interface. A Wizard-of-Oz simulation (Gould, Conti, & Hovanyecz, 1983) was used to create the impression of a talking and listening computer that acted as a teammate to help participants interact with a computer application.
Four levels of communication mode were used which differed in the level of restriction placed on human-computer communication. In addition, participants completed two sets of tasks (simple and complex). Further, a personality trait, Desire for Control (DC), was measured and participants were split into high and low groups for analysis. Dependent measures …
