Dependence, Dispersiveness, And Multivariate Hazard Rate Ordering, Baha-Eldin Khaledi, Subhash C. Kochar
Dependence, Dispersiveness, And Multivariate Hazard Rate Ordering, Baha-Eldin Khaledi, Subhash C. Kochar
Mathematics and Statistics Faculty Publications and Presentations
To compare two multivariate random vectors of the same dimension, we define a new stochastic order called upper orthant dispersive ordering and study its properties. We study its relationship with positive dependence and multivariate hazard rate ordering as defined by Hu, Khaledi, and Shaked (Journal of Multivariate Analysis, 2002). It is shown that if two random vectors have a common copula and if their marginal distributions are ordered according to dispersive ordering in the same direction, then the two random vectors are ordered according to this new upper orthant dispersive ordering. Also, it is shown that the marginal distributions of …

Integration Of The Shel Model With The Flight Operational Quality Assurance (Foqa) Program, James T. Schultz, Scott Forn, Marian C. Schultz
Integration Of The Shel Model With The Flight Operational Quality Assurance (Foqa) Program, James T. Schultz, Scott Forn, Marian C. Schultz
Publications
The SHEL Model has been used to explore relationships between liveware, environmental, hardware and software factors. This study attempts to integrate Flight Operational Quality Assurance (FOQA) program data with the SHEL model. Aircraft record data that can be used to monitor the human interface within the entire system, plus identify faults and potential failures within the system before a major accident or incident occurs. These data have existed for over four decades, and FOQA offers a way to both analyze and act upon them. The relationships between the SHEL model and FOQA data can help to ensure our nation's skies …

Problem and proof proposed by authors.
Another proof, using lattice paths, can be found in Robert A. Sulanke's article, Objects Counted by the Central Delannoy Numbers, The Journal of Integer Sequences, Vol 6, 2003. A proof by polynomials is in Michel Bataille's paper Some Identities about an Old Combinatorial Sum, The Mathematical Gazette, March 2003, pp. 144-8. A slight change in the above proof leads to m ≥ n, a generalization proved by Li Zhou using lattice paths in The Mathematical Gazette.

This paper summarizes progress to date on the WSU model for engineering mathematics education, an NSF funded curriculum reform initiative at Wright State University. The WSU model seeks to increase student retention, motivation and success in engineering through application-driven, just-in-time engineering math instruction. The WSU approach involves the development of a novel freshman-level engineering mathematics course EGR 101, as well as a large-scale restructuring of the engineering curriculum. By removing traditional math prerequisites and moving core engineering courses earlier in the program, the WSU model shifts the traditional emphasis on math prerequisite requirements to an emphasis on engineering motivation for …

Computer Science Faculty Research & Creative Works
The bulk power system is one of the largest man-made networks and its size makes control an extremely difficult task. This paper presents a method to control a power network using UPFCs set to levels determined by a maximum flow (max-flow) algorithm. The graph-theory-based max-flow is applied to the power system for UPFC placement and scheduling. A distributed version of max-flow is described to coordinate the actions of the UPFCs distributed in a power network. Two sample power systems were tested using max-flow for UPFC placement and settings. The resulting system characteristics are examined over all single-line contingencies and the …

AlGaN/GaN/SiC Schottky barrier diodes (SBDs), with and without Si3N4 passivation, have been characterized by temperature-dependent current-voltage and capacitance-voltage measurements, and deep level transient spectroscopy (DLTS). A dominant trap A1, with activation energy of 1.0 eV and apparent capture cross section of 2×10−12 cm2, has been observed in both unpassivated and passivated SBDs. Based on the well-known logarithmic dependence of DLTS peak height with filling pulse width for a line-defect related trap, A1, which is commonly observed in thin GaN layers grown by various techniques, is believed to be associated with …

Magnetization Reversal Of Fe Films On Ag Submicrometer Pyramidal Islands, Chin-Chung Yu, Yeong-Der Yao, Sy_Hwang Liou
Sy-Hwang Liou Publications
Ag submicrometer pyramidal islands with a (100) truncated top and four (111) sidewalls were successfully fabricated on Si(100) substrates at a deposition temperature of 500/spl deg/C. The magnetization reversal of 30 nm thick Fe films grown on Ag pyramidal islands was studied by magnetic force microscopy. The magnetization reversal of Fe films was first started at the sidewalls of pyramidal islands. Then, the formation and propagation of wall-like structures were observed under a higher external magnetic field, namely 95 Oe. The magnetic domain images indicated that the Fe films grown on the sidewalls of pyramidal islands and the strength of …

Information systems students continue to struggle to successfully complete computer programming classes. Learning how to program is difficult, and failure and attrition rates in college level programming classes remain at an unacceptably high rate. Since many IS students take a programming course as part of their program of study, IS educators should better understand why IS students tend to achieve low success rates in programming courses and what can be done to improve success rates. Little research to date has addressed potential reasons for student failure in programming principles courses. Many educators simply assume that high failure rates are acceptable …

On The Performance Of Turbo Codes With Convolutional Interleavers, Sina Vafi, Tadeusz A. Wysocki
On The Performance Of Turbo Codes With Convolutional Interleavers, Sina Vafi, Tadeusz A. Wysocki
Faculty of Informatics - Papers (Archive)
In this paper, some issues governing the block-wise performance of convolutional interleavers used in turbo codes are presented. Two different constructions of convolutional interleaver differing by the position of stuff bits in the interleaved data block are considered here. The performance assessment is based on the contribution of each weight to the overall code performance. For the given turbo code and each utilized interleaver, weight contribution is computed to finalize the code behavior in different signal to noise ratios. Simulations have been performed to verify the conducted analysis.
