Evaluation of the environmental effects of intelligent cruise control vehicles
(2001)
Intelligent cruise control (ICC) vehicles are already commercially available in Japan and should be ready for the North American market by next year. Although the controllers are local and string stable, it is not clear ...
Maxima for Gaussian seas
(2006)
The probability distribution of the height of global maximum for a Gaussian random field evolving in time is studied. In particular, the effect of spreading is studied and the role of the wave kinematics is discussed. It ...
Measurement of double parton scattering in p̄ p collisions at √s = 1.8 TeV
(1997)
A strong signal for double parton scattering (DP) is observed in a 16 pb-1 sample of p̄ p → γ + 3 jets + X data from the CDF experiment at the Fermilab Tevatron. The process-independent DP parameter, σeff, is obtained ...
Analysis of traffic flow with mixed manual and semi-automated vehicles
(IEEE, 1999)
While dedicated highways with fully automated vehicles is a far in the future objective, the introduction of semi-automated vehicles on current highways designed to operate with manually driven vehicles is a realistic near ...
Predictions of structure breakdown, buildup and shear banding in semisolid suspensions
(2008)
When SSM material is subjected to a sudden transient the rate of buildup (aging) is negligible compared to the rate of breakdown (shear rejuvenation). While this is generally true, due to prolonged processing or the geometry ...
Coordination of systems with real-time properties in manifold
(IEEE, 1996)
This paper combines work done in the areas of asynchronous timed computations and coordination models in order to derive a framework able to express real-time coordination without adhering to special architectures or ...
Rheological effects of strusture breakdown in semisolid slurries
(2004)
An essential element for the integration of the semisolid metal (SSM) process in the production of complex commercial components is the availability of accurate mathematical and computational tools that could describe both ...
Adaptive nonlinear congestion controller for a differentiated-services framework
(2005)
The growing demand of computer usage requires efficient ways of managing network traffic in order to avoid or at least limit the level of congestion in cases where increases in bandwidth are not desirable or possible. In ...
Integrated control of connection admission, flow rate, and bandwidth for ATM based networks
(1996)
We consider the combined control problem of connection admission, flow rate, and bandwidth allocation (capacity, service-rate) under nonstationary conditions. A fluid flow model in state variable form describes the time ...
Fuzzy backward congestion notification (FBCN) congestion control in asynchronous transfer mode (ATM) networks
(IEEE, 1995)
In this paper, we study the performance of a fuzzy control scheme as a first step to develop better control strategies for avoiding congestion and attaining high link utilisation in ATM based networks. Due to the complexity ...
