  • MicroSoar : a high speed microstructure profiling system

    Creator:
    May, Glenn H.
    Abstract:
    As ocean ecosystems continue to deteriorate in the face of human induced pressures, marine management professionals are increasingly being urged to predict the impacts of various activities on ocean ecosystems. Many ecosystem interactions are still not adequately understood, so managers often turn to scientists to provide data and analysis on...

  • Design and analysis of hard real-time systems

    Creator:
    Zhu, Jiang
    Abstract:
    First, we study hard real-time scheduling problems where each task is defined by a four tuple (r, c, p, d): r being its release time, c computation time, p period, and d deadline. The question is whether all tasks can meet their deadlines on one processor. If not, how many...

  • Computer aided tolerance analysis and process selection for AutoCAD

    Creator:
    Pamulapati, Sairam V.
    Abstract:
    The fundamental objective of a design engineer in performing tolerance technology is to transform functional requirements into tolerances on individual parts based on existing data and algorithms for design tolerance analysis and synthesis. The transformation of functional requirements into tolerances must also consider the existing process capabilities and manufacturing costs...

  • Integration of an expert system and dynamic programming approach to optimize log breakdown using 3-dimensional log and internal defect shape information

    Creator:
    Zeng, Yimin
    Abstract:
    A computer program, SAW3DG, was developed to optimize log breakdown using 3-dimensional log and internal defect shapes. The program was based on SAW3D, a log breakdown optimization program considering only 3-dimensional log shape. SAW3D was modified to include internal log defects in 3-dimensional representation and integrated with SLGRADER, an expert...

  • New methods for sedimentation and diffusion analysis of macromolecular structure

    Creator:
    Demeler, Borries
    Abstract:
    Methods are presented to acquire data from analytical ultracentrifugation experiments by computer using the absorption optical scanning system of the Beckman Model-E ultracentrifuge. A computer program was written which analyzes sedimentation velocity experiments by the van Holde - Weischet method and by the second moment method. The van Holde -...

  • An efficient methodology for scheduling general flexible manufacturing systems

    Creator:
    Sonthinen, Adulwit
    Abstract:
    Flexible Manufacturing Systems (FMSs) have evolved rapidly over the last decade. One important factor that influences the performance of FMS is scheduling. Scheduling in an FMS differs from that in a conventional job-shop because each operation of a job may be performed by any one of several machines. Most studies...

  • Algorithms for string matching with applications in molecular biology

    Creator:
    Holloway, James Lee
    Abstract:
    As the volume of genetic sequence data increases due to improved sequencing techniques and increased interest, the computational tools available to analyze the data are becoming inadequate. This thesis seeks to improve a few of the computational methods available to access and analyze data in the genetic sequence databases. The...

  • Mechanistic studies of polyhalogenated benzenes

    Creator:
    Herbelin, Sharon Maley
    Abstract:
    Polyhalogenated benzenes have been analyzed by standard electron capture chemical ionization mass spectrometry (ECCI/MS), and electron monochromator mass spectrometer (EM/MS) systems. The EM/MS experiments distinguished electronegative compounds (especially isomers) by transient negative ions (TNIs) of the same mass but differing energies and/or the formation of distinct TNIs of different masses...

  • Schedule-based material requirements planning : an artificial intelligence approach

    Creator:
    Kim, Sunuk
    Abstract:
    The objective of this research project was to identify the limitations associated with schedule-based Material Requirements Planning (SBMRP) and to present a knowledge-based expert system (KBES) approach to solve these problems. In SBMRP, the basic strategy is to use backward or forward scheduling based on an arbitrary dispatching rule, such...
