Proxy Pipe is designed to be a bus in the transport layer of the communication between the two different processes. Its major function is to transfer bytes. When the client process tries to send a command to the server process, it will talk to a proxy as if it were...
In this paper we outline an implementation of Linda on a network of Unix workstations. A literature survey was done to gain a better perspective on state of the art and to learn from the experiences of other implementations. The tuple space which is central to the Linda system is...
Monitoring the performance of electrical utility assets is a critical activity for power companies. Gas chromatography has long been established as the analytical technique of choice for assessment of transformer fault conditions by detection of the presence of key fault gases through analysis of transformer oil. Chromatography is one of...
Wireless Application Protocol (WAP) is an industry standard aimed to bring the web to handheld devices. The handheld devices are constrained by battery life and it becomes important that power is conserved across web transactions. The power consumed by the handheld device is directly proportional to the time taken for...
In this report, we describe an implementation of a prototype information resources management system for the synthesis and integration project of the forest response program using a 4GL application development system ACCELL. Our system is called Prototype Virtual Data Management System (PVDMS). ACCELL is a software package that combines a...
Experimental test beds to study Real Time agents are common topic in AI. A principal contribution of this paper is to develop a framework for such experimental test beds. Design and implementation of the test bed and the extension of the framework for different equipment and agents are discussed. Results...
Software development has been characterized by severe schedule slippage, cost overrun and the inability of the developer to estimate with acceptable accuracy the resources and schedule required early in the requirements analysis and functional design phase when critical investment decisions must be made. This estimation difficulty has emerged as one...
The project aims at building an application that would simulate a transparency that can either be overlaid on top of the graphical display of another application or used as a stand-alone by accepting input from a keyboard or a mouse to enhance a presentation. The project provides an environment to...
We present a model for a distributed virtual market place that can be constructed on the Internet to support selling and buying requests, such as those found as classified advertisements. One requirement for a transaction to take place in the virtual market place is that a sell request and a...
In this project we have implemented an Object-Oriented simulation model of a Digital Switching System. We analyzed various software components of a Digital Switching System. The call processing module is the principal component and the most complex of all. The features of Object-Oriented principles were investigated and found to fit...
