The application of systems and control theory to membrane physiology is presented here. Modeling efforts have focused on describing those physiologically realistic mechanisms which govern the regulation of membrane perme ...

How can an agent generalize its knowledge to new circumstances? To learn effectively an agent acting in a sequential decision problem must make intelligent action selection choices based on its available knowledge. Thi ...

This research develops an object-oriented approach of modeling microprocessor architecture. A generic modeling library, bBlocks, is proposed as a framework for constructing microprocessor simulation. bBlocks is a colle ...

Wireless Networks have been widely adopted into a major part of today's network infrastructure. They have become a popular technology to not only expand the coverage of wired networks but also to interconnect a large wi ...

Neurons are characterized by an electric potential which is established between their inside and outside media. They exhibit specific voltage fluctuations, in response to strong enough current impulses, called action p ...

Scientists in the biological sciences need to retrieve information from a variety of data collections, traditionally maintained in SQL databases, in order to conduct research. Because current assistant tools are design ...

Sequential supervised learning problems involve assigning a class label to each item in a sequence. Examples include part-of-speech tagging and text-to-speech mapping. A very general-purpose strategy for solving such p ...

Contemporary circuit design involves significant computer-based simulation, calling for a balance between circuit model accuracy and simulation run time. Traditionally, circuit modelers concentrated on producing either ...

Designing spectral efficient, high-speed wireless links that offer high quality- of-service and range capability has been a critical research and engineering challenge. In this thesis, we mainly address the complexity a ...
