The purpose of this pilot program was to determine whether or not forward looking infrared (FLIR) videography could be used to develop thermal maps of the mainstem Klamath River to access habitat limitations due to high stream temperatures for fall chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha).
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...
Suffix trees are a well known data structure for facilitating a variety of queries on strings. Construction of the trees requires a considerable number of choices concerning the implementation. Several of those choices are examined in this paper. Performance studies are presented that reveal the consequences of these choices. The...
Structural active-object systems (SAOSs) are transition-based object-oriented systems suitable for various concurrent applications. A SAOS consists of a collection of interacting active objects that can be structurally and hierarchically composed. The SAOS framework enables $AO$ application programs to be developed rapidly. However, nondeterministic behaviors of active object sometimes make debugging...
Abstract: In this project, our goal is to design a flipping algorithm for computing the Voronoi diagram of simple polygons. As preparation towards designing a flipping algorithm, we re-implemented the ear cutting algorithm of using a standard geometric library COAL. This new Implementation is compatible with COAL, We have designed...
MIDAS is an application framework for remote data acquisition and visualization that allows dynamic reconfiguration of its constituent components. There are three types of reconfiguration, namely, component replacement, component interposition and component deletion. A two-phase protocol to maintain the consistency of the system during reconfiguration is described. MIDAS has a...
With the rapid development of Internet technology and popularity of Web solutions, the Internet has become a major means for collecting information. The Weatherlnfo system is conceived and developed to provide weather data for end users in tabular and graphic formats over the Internet. In order to make data retrieval...
