چکیده

It is shown that a threshold network of width w and depth d cannot be constructed from balancers of width p0; p1; : : : ; pm 1, if w does not divide P , where P is the least common multiple of p0; p1; : : : ; pm 1. This holds regardless of the size of the network, as long as it is nite, and it implies a lower bound of logP w on the depth of the network. More strongly, a lower bound of logpmax w is shown on the length of every path from an input wire to a certain output wire that exhibits the threshold property, where pmax is the maximum among p0; p1; : : : ; pm 1

A Two-Threshold Guard Channel Scheme for Minimizing Blocking Probability in Communication Networks

In this paper, we consider the call admission problem in cellular network with two classes of voice users. In the first part of paper, we introduce a two-threshold guard channel policy and study its limiting behavior under the stationary traffic. Then we give an algorithm for finding the optimal number of guard channels. In the second part of this paper, we give an algorithm, which minimizes th...

Robust Fault Detection on Boiler-turbine Unit Actuators Using Dynamic Neural Networks

Due to the important role of the boiler-turbine units in industries and electricity generation, it is important to diagnose different types of faults in different parts of boiler-turbine system. Different parts of a boiler-turbine system like the sensor or actuator or plant can be affected by various types of faults. In this paper, the effects of the occurrence of faults on the actuators are in...

Improving Bandwidth-power Efficiency of Homogeneous Wireless Networks Using On-meet Threshold Strategy (RESEARCH NOTE)

Over two decades, a problem of location dependent has been focused for improving the communication Bandwidth-Power Efficiency of homogeneous networks. The efficiencies of communication links are weakened by the Hidden Terminal Problem.  Thus we propose a Fine – Tune Strategy for analyzing the On-Off communication region. We were observed that the proposed technique had been able to track and mo...

Accuracy Assessment of Geo-Statistics and Artificial Neural Networks Methods to Estimate Threshold Wind Velocity: A Case of Jazinak Region, Sistan Plain

Extended abstract 1- Introduction Threshold wind velocity is a major influencing variable in transportation of soil particles and dust production. It is considered as an important component in many theoretical equations and numerical models due to its importance in wind erosion studies (Stout & Zobeck, 1996). The wind tunnel method (fixed and portable), empirical relationships and sediment tr...
