Ensuring the safety of people during evacuation in event a fire building is one highest priorities design smoke ventilation systems (hereinafter SVS). Engineers are faced with question how to achieve required parameters and fulfil all relevant requirements for according regulatory documentation. Often, experience must be combined activities directly related supervision compliance installation d...

A full-wave analysis of the scattering parameters of a straight-to-bent microstrip line coupling is performed using a FEM technique. The numerical results, showing the influence played by the geometrical parameters of the structure on the electromagnetic coupling, are then employed to derive an equivalent circuit useful to be employed in CAD tools. A third order polynomial approximant useful to...

In the last several years the MANET routing protocols and mobility model combinations have been studied widely. These studies have used different MANET parameters for performance evaluation due to which the uniformity for the sake of comparison among the research works has been missing. This work provides a comprehensive study using wide range of MANET parameters, and draws conclusions for the ...

HEAD DRIVEN STATISTICAL MODELS FOR NATURAL LANGUAGE PARSING Michael Collins Supervisor Professor Mitch Marcus Statistical models for parsing natural language have recently shown considerable suc cess in broad coverage domains Ambiguity often leads to an input sentence having many possible parse trees statistical approaches assign a probability to each tree thereby rank ing competing trees in or...
