An advanced forward 'area tactical radar network, now under
conceptual development by the Air Force Electronic Systems Division,
can be viewed as a novel form of computer network but with
other unique problems resulting from the specialized nature of the
application. The proposed network will link together a number of...
This qualitative study describes and interprets the interactions of participants in a
community college writing class delivered by computer-mediated communication
(CMC). The class represented a best practice model of learner-centered instruction in a
CMC class. The description and the discussion are framed by five aspects of CMC
instruction: (1) context;...

This paper is concerned with the application of
hierarchial and parallel computing structures to digital
data communications processing in a multi-access telecommunications
environment. Designs are analyzed and
evaluated in terms of data collected from remote access
tele-communications traffic and in terms of the application
to several processing problems in the...
Interconnection networks play important roles in designing high performance computers. Recently two new classes of interconnection networks based on the concept of Gaussian and Eisenstein-Jacobi integers were introduced. In this research, efficient routing and broadcasting algorithms for these networks are developed. Furthermore, constructing edge disjoint Hamiltonian cycles in Gaussian networks...
It is well known that multipath effects cause inter-symbol interference (ISI) for high-speed signaling and ultimately limit the achievable data rate at any frequency band. In this thesis, we study several different methods to tackle this issue and provide solutions for establishing efficient wireless links that can provide several Gbps...
We describe a software mechanism that simplifies the implementation of real-time distributed object-oriented applications. The distributed observable/observer mechanism extends the Observable/Observer concept of Java to a distributed environment, encapsulating the communication protocol used by networking. The mechanism supports the distributed model/view-controller (M/VC) paradigm, allowing view-controllers to be attached to remote...
The application of information theory and digital signal processing techniques to digital
communication has resulted in robust methods for reliable high speed data transmission
over noisy channels environments. Among these methods, multicarrier systems have
become a viable solution for exploiting maximum spectral efficiency over both wideband
highly dispersive static and...
Recent developments in computing technology have generated a demand for more streamlined and effective test systems. By replacing traditional in-chassis wired interconnects with a broadcast wireless system, fault detection and error susceptibility will drastically improve, input/output capabilities will expand, and routing complexity will decrease. Ultra-wideband impulse radio's (UWB-IR) characteristic multipath-immunity...
In this paper, based on coding theory concepts, new time scheduling algorithms for multihop packet radio networks are described. Each mobile host is assigned a word from an appropriate constant weight code of length n, distance d and weight w. The host can send a message at the j[superscipt th]...
