Portable Instrumentation for Real-Time

Real-Time Quantitative Ultrasonic Inspection

Most frequently applied ultrasonic inspection techniques measure the reflectivity of geometric scatterers that are caused by impurities, flaws and defects in the material. Based on the echo sounder principles, the reflector has to be insonified by directed sound pulses. This requires a large number of transducers with different incident angles and sound field patterns, which are more and more r...

Toward Modular, Portable, Real-Time Software

W is a systematic approach toward the construction of event-driven, interactive, real-time software. W is driven by practical concerns, including the desire to reuse existing code wherever possible, the limited real-time software support in popular operating systems, and system cost. W provides a simple, efficient, software interconnection system, giving objects a uniform external interface bas...
