Advances on the continued fractions method using better estimations of positive root bounds
(2007)We present an implementation of the Continued Fractions (CF) real root isolation method using a recently developed upper bound on the positive values of the roots of polynomials. Empirical results presented in this paper ... -
Applying constructivism for interactive educational software: A research based design, implementation and evaluation method
(2004)We have designed, developed and evaluated the educational software entitled "Interaction between objects" within the framework of social constructivism on the basis of the data issued from a preceded research with teachers ... -
An autodidactic programming curriculum application for early education: Pilot studies and improvement suggestions
(2012)Informal learning is a research area not fully explored yet [1], but interest in out of classroom learning methods and settings is currently increasing [2], [3]. In parallel to that, the advent of Internet, which allows ... -
Bayesian optimal experimental design for parameter estimation and response predictions in complex dynamical systems
(2017)A Bayesian optimal experimental design (OED) framework is revisited and applied to a number of structural dynamics problems. The objective is to optimize the design of the experiment such that the most informative data are ... -
Black hole search with finite automata scattered in a synchronous torus
(2011)We consider the problem of locating a black hole in synchronous anonymous networks using finite state agents. A black hole is a harmful node in the network that destroys any agent visiting that node without leaving any ... -
Computations in modules over commutative domains
(2007)This paper is a review of results on computational methods of linear algebra over commutative domains. Methods for the following problems are examined: solution of systems of linear equations, computation of determinants, ... -
Computing scientometrics in large-scale academic search engines with MapReduce
(2012)Apart from the well-established facility of searching for research articles, the modern academic search engines also provide information regarding the scientists themselves. Until recently, this information was limited to ... -
Concise and accurate solutions to half-space binary-gas flow problems defined by the McCormack model and specular-diffuse wall conditions
(2004)An analytical version of the discrete-ordinates method (the ADO method) is used to establish concise and particularly accurate solutions to the viscous-slip and the half-space thermal-creep problems for a binary gas mixture. ... -
Continuous replica placement schemes in distributed systems
(2005)The Replica Placement Problem (RPP) aims at creating a set of duplicated data objects across the nodes of a distributed system in order to optimize certain criteria. Typically, RPP formulations fall into two categories: ... -
Decoupling of singular systems via P-D feedback
(1996)The problem of input-output decoupling of singular systems via proportional plus derivative (P-D) feedback is solved. The necessary and sufficient condition for the problem to have a solution is established. A special ... -
Design architecture of a data driven environment for multiphysics applications
(2003)The design architecture of a multidisciplinary problem-solving environment (MPSE) for supporting an efficient prediction capability for the response of continuous interacting systems under multiphysics conditions is ... -
Detecting IEEE 802.11 MAC layer misbehavior in ad hoc networks: Robust strategies against individual and colluding attackers
(2007)Selfish behavior at the Medium Access (MAC) Layer can have devastating side effects on the performance of wireless networks, with effects similar to those of Denial of Service (DoS) attacks. In this paper we consider the ... -
Dialogue-based personalized reflective learning
(2004)The Web-Based Reflective Tutorial Dialogue System (W-ReTuDiS) is a system for personalized learning of historical text comprehension on the Web. The system offers a two level open interface: tutor level and learner level. ... -
Distributed on-line schedule adaptation for balanced slot allocation in wireless ad hoc networks
(2004)We propose an algorithm for design and on the fly modification of the schedule of a wireless ad hoc network for provision of fair service guarantees under topological changes. The primary objective is to derive a distributed ... -
Distributed resource allocation algorithms for peer-to-peer networks
(2008)In peer-to-peer networks, each peer plays the role of client and server. As server, it receives content requests made by other peers and needs to decide on what basis and to what extent it will satisfy these requests by ... -
Disturbance decoupling of singular systems via P-D feedback
(1999)The problem of disturbance decoupling of singular systems via proportional plus derivative (P-D) feedback is solved. The necessary and sufficient condition for the problem to be solvable is established as a rank condition ... -
Dynamic Cloud Resources Allocation on Multidomain/Multiphysics Problems
(2015)The solution of multidomain/multiphysics problems is a computationally and memory demanding process, especially for large-scale differential equations. In this paper, we propose a cloud application that provides users a ... -
