Data Prefetching via Off-line Learning
(2003-01)The widely acknowledged performance gap between processors and memory has been the subject of much research. In the Explicitly Parallel Instruction Computing (EPIC) paradigm, the combination of in-order issue and the ... -
Data Smoothing: Research 2002
(2003-01)My research is concentrated on applications of linear algebra in engineering, including wavelet analysis and structured matrices. This paper will appear in the book Mathematical Systems Theory (J. Rosenthal and D. Gilliam, ... -
De-Emphasis of Distracting Image Regions Using Texture Power Maps
(2006-01)We present a post-processing technique that selectively reduces the salience of distracting regions in an image. Computational models of attention predict that texture variation influences bottom-up attention mechanisms. ... -
Defects in Self Assembled Colloidal Crystals
(2005-01)Colloidal self assembly is an efficient method for making 3-D ordered nanostructures suitable for materials such as photonic crystals and macroscopic solids for catalysis and sensor applications. Colloidal crystals grown ... -
Delivery of Etanidazole to Brain Tumor from PLGA Wafers
(2004-01)This paper presents the computer simulation results on the delivery of Etanidazole (radiosensitiser) to the brain tumor and examines several factors affecting the delivery. The simulation consists of a 3D model of tumor ... -
Dependence of nanocrystal formation and charge storage/retention performance of a tri-layer memory structure on germanium concentration and tunnel oxide thickness
(2004-01)The effect of germanium (Ge) concentration and the rapid thermal oxide (RTO) layer thickness on the nanocrystal formation and charge storage/retention capability of a trilayer metal-insulator-semiconductor device was ... -
Deposition of Thin Films of Biocompatible Calcium Carbonate via Template-Driven Mineralization
(2004-01)Natural bone is a composite of collagen based hydrogel and inorganic dahilite crystals. The unusual combination of a hard inorganic material and an underlying elastic hydrogel network endows native bone with unique mechanical ... -
Design and Analysis of Printed Circuit Boards Using FDTD Method for The 20-H Rule
(2002-01)With the increasing demand of higher operating frequencies for electronic circuits, the printed circuit board designers face more electromagnetic radiation problems than ever. Some “rules-of-thumb” are employed to help the ... -
Design and Development of 3-DOF Modular Micro Parallel Kinematic Manipulator
(2005-01)This paper presents the research and development of a 3-legged micro Parallel Kinematic Manipulator (PKM) for positioning in micro-machining and assembly operations. The structural characteristics associated with parallel ... -
Design and Optimization of Complex Systems
(2002-01)Truely optimal solutions to system design can only be obtained if the entire system is considered. In this research we consider design of commercial aircraft, but we expand the system to include a family of planes. A ... -
Design Issues in Internet 0 Federation
(2006-01)Internet 0 is proposed as a local area network that supports extremely small network devices with very little capacity for computation, storage, or communication. Internet 0 addresses the issue of connecting very small, ... -
Design, Fabrication and Functional Analysis of a New Protein Array Based on ssDNA-based Assembly
(2006-01)In the post genomic era, proteomics has enormous potential in biology and medicine. Among the various bioanalytical tools developed, protein microarray is one of the recent advancements which offer high throughput profiling ... -
Designer peptides to understand the mineralization of calcium salts
(2003-01)Recently, we reported the extraction, purification and amino acid sequence of ansocalcin, the major goose eggshell matrix protein. In vitro studies showed that ansocalcin induces spherical calcite crystal aggregates. We ... -
A DHT-Based Grid Resource Indexing and Discovery Scheme
(2005-01)This paper presents a DHT-based grid resource indexing and discovery (DGRID) approach. With DGRID, resource-information data is stored on its own administrative domain and each domain, represented by an index server, is ... -
