Hazard-free connection release
(Texas A&M University, 1997)
Fault-tolerant communication in a distributed system requires reliable connection management and message delivery. Reliable connection management includes the guarantee of hazard-free release, in which no data is lost ...
Choosing good distance metrics and local planners for probabilistic roadmap motion planning methods
(Texas A&M University, 1998)
This thesis presents a comparative evaluation of different distance metrics and local planners within the context of probabilistic roadmap methods for motion planning. Both C-space and Workspace distance metrics and local ...
Hydranet: network support for scaling of large scale servic es
(Texas A&M University, 1998)
With the explosive growth of demand for services on the Internet, the networking infrastructure (routers 7 protocols, servers) is under considerable stress. Mechanisms are needed for current and future IP services to scale ...
Characterizing switching problems in low earth orbit satellite constellations with satellite failures
(Texas A&M University, 1999)
In this research, we study the ability of LEO satellite constellations to handle data traffic. LEO satellites offer a number of advantages over traditional space based communications via geosynchronous orbit satellites ...
A distributed and hierarchical naming scheme for Java RMI with support for persistence and caching
(Texas A&M University, 1998)
Java Remote Method Invocation (Java RMI) is a icrographics. distributed object technology that is going to play a pivotal role in the distributed object world of tomorrow. With the introduction of the Remote Object Activation ...
User & situation models for medical information delivery
(Texas A&M University, 1998)
The human exploration of Mars today represents a ographics. challenging and interesting venture for humanity, right at the cutting edge of attainability, both technologically and socially. It is unique in the sense that ...
Morphological modeling of neurons
(Texas A&M University, 1995)
A formal representation of neuron morphology, adequate for the geometric modeling of manually-traced neurons, is presented. The concept of a stochastic L-system is then introduced and the critical distribution functions ...
Recoverable distributed shared memory
(Texas A&M University, 1996)
Distributed Shared Memory (DSM) is a model for interprocess communication, implemented on top of message passing systems. In this model, processes running on separate hosts can access a shared, coherent memory address ...
Task and instruction scheduling in parallel multithreaded processors
(Texas A&M University, 1996)
Parallel muitithreading is a technique to execute parallel programs on a multithreaded superscalar processor. It enhances instruction throughput in a processor by combining program parallelism with the strong features of ...
Mirage: an interpreted programming environment for algorithm animation
(Texas A&M University, 1994)
We present the main elements of a novel algorithm animation system, which allows algorithms to be expressed in a language that resembles textbook set-theoretical descriptions. An animation editor allows a user to express ...
