A Microelectromechanical System-based (MEMS) PICOSAT Inspector (MEPSI) picosatellite on STS-116, in December 2006, used a five thruster cold gas propulsion system to translate and rotate. The inspector picosatellite measured 4 x 4 x 5 inches in dimension and weighted 1.4 kg. Our propulsion system was produced by a unique (to spacecraft) method of manufacturing that is low cost, tightly integrat...

Sparse matrix problems are diicult to parallelize eeciently on distributed memory machines since data is often accessed indirectly. Inspector/executor strategies, which are typically used to parallelize loops with indirect references, incur substantial run-time preprocessing overheads when references with multiple levels of indirection are encountered | a frequent occurrence in sparse matrix al...

the effects of agricultural information on the technical knowledge of the greenhouse owners in south khorasan province are dealt with in this study. research a descriptive-correlational methodology was ployed, and in terms of time, it was limited to the activities of the elements of knowledge and agricultural information as obtained from greenhouses during 2009. the study population consisted o...

An inspection game is a mathematical model of a situation in which an inspector verifies the adherence of an inspectee to some legal obligation, such as an arms control treaty, where the inspectee may have an interest in violating that obligation. The mathematical analysis seeks to determine an optimal inspection scheme, ideally one which will induce legal behavior, under the assumption that th...

Computer networks today are far more complex and managing such networks is not more then a job of an expert. Monitoring systems helps network administrator in monitoring and protecting the network by not allowing the users to run illegal application or changing the configuration of the network node. In this paper, we have proposed Autonomous Malicious Activity Inspector – AMAI which uses ontolo...
