  • ASTEK : a multi-paradigm knowledge aquisition tool for complex structured knowledge

    Creator:
    Jacobson, Chris E.
    Abstract:
    Knowledge based systems can require large, highly complex and varied forms of knowledge. An effective knowledge acquisition tool to support such a system should allow the user to transfer and manipulate the different forms knowledge in a manner that is clear and intuitive. ASTEK is a knowledge acquisition tool that...

  • New Approaches to Depth-Based Render Techniques Using Pixel Synchronization

    Creator:
    Pawlowski, Bryan
    Abstract:
    As the nonstop advancement of graphics hardware continues, new features are being added to the graphics pipeline on a regular basis. One of these advancements is called Pixel Synchronization, which allows a graphics programmer more power with certain types of data structures that may be accessed by multiple shader units...

  • A parallel implementation of the multiple polynomial quadratic sieve

    Creator:
    Perkins, Virgina E.
    Abstract:
    Cryptographic systems are used for secure communications in the government, in industry, and by individuals. Many cryptographic systems base their security on our inability to factor quickly. For this reason, in the last few decades several fast factoring algorithms have been developed. The Quadratic Sieve is one of the best...

  • SIDUR--a formalism for structuring knowledge bases

    Creator:
    Kogan, Dan D.
    Abstract:
    A new class of information intensive applications is emerging [Fuch82; Ohsu82] for which neither Artificial Intelligence (AI) nor Database technologies alone are well suited. Database systems do not provide the general inferential capabilities required for problem solving, while AI techniques have not been adapted to handle massive amounts of structured...

  • States, side effects and multiple contexts in programming languages

    Creator:
    Chakrabarti, Sankar L.
    Abstract:
    In von Neumann Languages, side effects occur if one or more non local variables change value(s) during the execution of a procedure or a function. Side effects can occur only if the programming language provides a notion of memory (or state) where the effect will be stored. Side effects complicate...

  • Random access machine in secure multi-party computation

    Creator:
    Hu, Zhangxiang
    Abstract:
    Secure multi-party computation (MPC) is a conceptual framework in cryptography. It allows distrusting parties engage in a protocol to perform a computational task while still maintain some secure properties. Most existing approaches are required to interpret functions as a boolean circuit. With the recent state-of-art circuit garbling scheme, the performance...

  • Layered rendering model for human teeth

    Creator:
    Shetty, Sudarshanram
    Abstract:
    This study introduces a layered model for rendering human teeth. Human teeth exhibit complex light interaction due to their layered structure. While the lighting responses of teeth have been studied in the dental industry for the production of realistic looking dentures, to our knowledge this is the first study of...

  • Developing simple load sharing utilities (SLSU) for SWARM

    Creator:
    Zhao, Yan
    Abstract:
    With the strong shift toward network-centric cluster-computing workload management has become increasingly important in both industrial and academic environments. To fully harness the distributed computing resources of the 32 PC's in our department, I developed a workload monitoring system together with a few utilities for users to submit either sequential...

  • Implementing a Run-time Library for a Parallel MATLAB Compiler

    Creator:
    Malishevsky, Alexey
    Abstract:
    Programming parallel machines has been a difficult and unrewarding task. The short lifespan of parallel machines and their incompatibility have made it difficult to utilize them. Our goal here is to create an environment for parallel computing which allows users to take advantage of parallel computers without writing parallel programs....

  • PedVac - a graphical interface and front-end to a parallel pedestrian evacuation simulator

    Creator:
    Vimawala, Ankush V.
    Abstract:
    The World Trade Center disaster brought into focus, tragically, the need for well-designed evacuation systems in modem buildings. Today, designing an efficient evacuation system has become an integral part of designing large buildings. Simulation software enables an evacuation system to be evaluated. Modern day buildings, whether airports, auditoriums, public office...
