The state description and corresponding dynamic Bayesian network are shown in Table 1 and Figure 1. In the paper we mentioned that ms denotes the state of task i. To make this more detailed, we factorms into a tuple (m i r,m i d,m i s,m i c). The variable mr encodes the release time of task i. The variable md represents the number of steps task i can still be postponed, which can be used to enc...

Matrix Converter is a near ideal static frequency changer which provides solution to the problem of converting ac from one frequency and one magnitude to variable frequency and variable magnitude ac, without any bulky energy storing components like capacitors or inductors. One of the major obstacles towards commercial acceptance of this topology has been the commutation of the bidirectional swi...

Metal ions in protein are critical to the function, structure and stability of protein. For this reason accurate prediction of metal binding sites in protein is very important. Here, we present our study which is performed for predicting metal binding sites for histidines (HIS) and cysteines from protein sequence. Three different methods are applied for this task: Support Vector Machine (SVM), ...

DIM as Communication Layer Earlier versions of CS allowed for distributed control systems but required the knowledge of the node name for each process variable. Moreover, a general built-in observer mechanism where many observers may register to receive updates of one published process variable was missing. The entire communication layer has been changed to DIM (Distributed Information Manageme...

A method for the generation of discretedomain two-dimensional (2-D) transfer functions possessing variable magnitude and contour characteristics is presented in this paper. The proposed method is based upon a configuration constituted by two 1-D filters in cascade and a feedback loop. Each of these 1-D filter is designed to have a monotonic magnitude frequency response. This is obtained by perf...

In this paper, we have proposed a class of ratio-cum-dual to ratio estimators using known values of some population parameters of the auxiliary variable to estimate the population variance of the study variable. The expressions for the bias and mean square error of the proposed estimators have been derived upto the first order of approximation. A comparison has been made with some well known es...

In this paper predictive model for Metal Matrix Composite (MMCs) has been developed with the use of Artificial Neural Network. Stir casting process has been used to fabricate the fly ash based AL-6063 particulate MMC. The hardness of fly ash based AL-6063 MMC is taken as output variable, however fly ash(FA) percentage of reinforcement in MMC, stirring speed of stirrer and pouring temperature of...

ROPONENTS of legislation to induce or require more banks to be members of the Federal Reserve System often argue that the existence of nonmember commercial banks creates problems for the conduct of monetary policy. Two of the most frequently mentioned of these problems are: First, the ratio of net demand deposits to bank reserves may become more variable as nonmember banks have a larger share o...
