  • One-to-many node disjoint paths routing in generalized hypercube, dense Gaussian, and hexagonal mesh networks

    Creator:
    Alsaleh, Omar I.
    Abstract:
    Routing from a single source node to multiple destination nodes using node disjoint paths (NDP) has many important applications in parallel systems. For example, if a source node wants to send distinct messages to distinct destination nodes, then the one-to-many NDP routing is useful. Unlike parallel systems with shared-memory, each...

  • Robotic path-planning through dynamic maps

    Creator:
    Bowie, Cameron Scott
    Abstract:
    Robotic global navigation is often based on the assumption that the world is static. It assumes that obstacles present in maps will be there later and new obstacles will be dealt with by a local planning algorithm. When robots interact in an environment inhabited by people, this assumption does not...

  • MARLA : a chess playing program

    Creator:
    Rood, Andrew Lloyd
    Abstract:
    MARLA is a collection of FORTRAN routines which implements the Shannon-type-chess program with alphabeta cutoffs occurring dynamically. Board positions are updated incrementally. Also involved in position analysis is a production system which models the human chess player's advice-taking, theme, and chess learning in a general sense. Interfacing these two sections,...

  • A Comparative Study of Non-Normal Distributions in Continuous Dropout

    Creator:
    Guyer, Alexander D.
    Abstract:
    Recent studies have shown that novel continuous dropout methods can be viewed as a Bayesian interpretation of model parameters, though most such studies have shown results using normal distributions. As the posterior distributions over neural network nodes and parameters are intractable, given that they are a result of artificial construction...

  • Sensorless Localization for Robots and Wheelchairs

    Creator:
    Subramanian, Ashwin
    Abstract:
    Despite an increase in the number of people who rely on manual wheelchairs, there are still substantial economic barriers to affordable and accessible localization systems. As a result, there is a pressing need to build a versatile yet low cost localization system for manual wheelchairs. Such systems allow users to...

  • Augmenting self-study materials with microcomputer-based lessons: a case study

    Creator:
    Giangrande, Ernest
    Abstract:
    An experiment was conducted at Oregon State University to evaluate the effectiveness of Computer Aided Instruction based lessons in a self study environment. The 47 student subjects were assigned to one of three groups: a CAI-EXP group which used a CAI lesson for teaching introductory FORTRAN formatted input and output;...

  • PlanView & HViews : graphical user interfaces for viewing plan data

    Creator:
    Tabayoyon, Al
    Abstract:
    Visualizing and navigating through a plan is difficult without graphics. Two X applications, PlanView and HViews, are graphical user interfaces to an AI planner, OPIE, developed at the University of Oregon. In addition to a plan generator, OPIE includes a facility to generate operator abstractions which in turn are used...

  • An implementation of a parallel processing package in LISP

    Creator:
    Harney, Donald William
    Abstract:
    The concept of a process is often used in connection with operations of parts of a computer system. This thesis discusses processes in terms of their use as representations of a physical object or system. Five primitives are introduced as operators for allowing processes to be run in a piecemeal...

  • QCRITIC : a rule-based design critic for bipolar analog circuits

    Creator:
    Bergquist, Sue
    Abstract:
    QCritic is a rule-based critic for analog bipolar circuits. It functions as a post-processor for the SPICE simulator, making use of netlist, current, and voltage data. The program was written in OPS83, and demon­strates good run-time performance on a VAX 11/780. At present, the system contains rules for analyzing circuits...

  • A C source code browsing system

    Creator:
    Steinkamp, James M.
    Abstract:
    A project is described wherein a source code browser was implemented based upon tasks performed by software engineers looking for source code modules with only UNIX utilities. These tasks were discovered by observing the actions of software engineers looking for code modules in a library, The success of the implementation...
