Construction and solution of performability models based on stochastic activity networks.
(1988)
Distributed systems present new and challenging evaluation problems which make performance and dependability evaluation by traditional methods difficult. A coherent model representation and performance variable specification ...
Long-Term Models of Interactions Between Solids and Contaminants in Lakes.
(1982)
This dissertation develops a computational framework for predicting toxic substance levels in lakes. A general model of the transport and fate of contaminants in a lake's bottom sediments is derived. The model accounts for ...
Deterministic Equivalence in Stochastic Infinite Horizon Problems (Optimization).
(1985)
Infinite horizon optimization with stochastic data presents an interesting challenge. In practice, it is common to simply replace stochastic data with expectations. The solution to the resulting deterministic problem is ...
Finite Element Analysis of Surge Propagation on a Porous Bed (Free Surface Flows).
(1986)
This study develops a numerical model for the simulation of two-dimensional free surface flow on a vertical plane by means of the finite element method. The primary application of this scheme concerns the detailed description ...
Bus and cache memory organizations for multiprocessors.
(1989)
The single shared bus multiprocessor has been the most commercially successful multiprocessor system design up to this time, largely because it permits the implementation of efficient hardware mechanisms to enforce cache ...
Hsp70 chaperone Proteins and their Interactions with Various Drugs as Studied by Nuclear Magnetic Resonance.
(2011)
Chaperone proteins and their cochaperones are perhaps one of the most intriguing systems for investigation. Ubiquitous in nature, they can be found in every organism and that perhaps is the reason that their sequence shows ...
Simultaneous Density-Velocity Measurements in Premixed Turbulent Flames to Assess a Theoretical Model (Experimental).
(1986)
Density and velocity are measured simultaneously for the first time in premixed turbulent flames using the techniques of Rayleigh scattering and laser velocimetry. The flame configuration used in this study represents a ...
Automatically-Generated Form Screens as a Database Interface Language (Human Factors, Information Systems).
(1985)
A new database interface language called Metaform has been developed which automatically generates multirelational form screen interfaces for use by non-computer professionals. This system operates on an Entity-Relationship ...
S-system analysis of organizationally complex systems: Network regulation of the immune response.
(1988)
This thesis is concerned with organizationally complex systems, as manifest in the immune network, and the development of methods for their analysis. In Chapter 1 we describe the characteristics of organizationally complex ...
Measurement of the Chromium(N,X)Vanadium-52 Neutron Cross Section At 14.6 Mev (Energy, Activity, Generator).
(1986)
The total ('52)V production cross section of elemental chromium has been measured using a DT neutron source and the activation method. Two consecutive determinations of the Cr(n,X)('52)V cross section gave an average value ...
