Consumer demand for improved-quality and fresh-like food products have led to the development of new non-thermal preservation methods. High pressure processing (HPP) is currently the novel non-thermal technology best est ...

Multimedia applications such as video streaming and Voice over IP are becoming common today with the tremendous growth of the Internet. General purpose operating systems thus are required to support these applications. ...

This thesis presents an efficient computational voxelization approach that utilizes the graphics pipeline. Our approach is hybrid in that it performs a precise gap-free computational voxelization, employs fixed-function ...

In advanced hybrid electric vehicle development, performance and dependability are essential considerations in the design process. High efficiency is crucial in a successful design and fault tolerance is necessary to pr ...

As more advanced hybrid electric vehicles begin emerging onto the commercial market, design algorithms for their control become increasingly more complicated. One major hurdle for designers is the mitigation and control ...

Central Oregon is the primary U.S. hybrid carrot seed production area, supplying seed to the domestic fresh market carrot industry. Approximately 85 percent of the hybrid carrot seed planted in the United States is grown ...
