Turn taking in spoken language systems has generally been push-to-talk or strict alternation (user speaks, system speaks, user speaks, ...) with some systems such as telephone-based systems handling barge-in (interruption by the user.) In this paper we describe our time sensitive conversational architecture for turn taking that not only allows alternating turns and barge in, but other conversat...

this paper investigates a discrete-time impatient customer queue with bernoulli-schedule vacation interruption. the  vacation times and the service times during regular busy period and during working vacation period are assumed to follow geometric distribution. we obtain the steady-state probabilities at arbitrary and outside observer's observation epochs using recursive technique. cost an...

Handoo is the procedure by which a user's radio link is transferred between radio ports in the network without an interruption of the user connection. In this paper , we discuss how a Wireless Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) network may reroute a user connection during a handoo. We propose a novel procedure called \Nearest Common Node Rerouting (NCNR)." NCNR is designed to perform the reroutin...

which a generating plant driven by renewable energy sources, such as wind energy, is connected to partially serve loads. This research demonstrates the induction generator by two forms: i) power (PQ) model and ii) admittance (Y) model. Solution convergence and model accuracy are observed in order to predict power flow distribution through feeder lines resulting from the grid connection of a ren...
