The demand for network bandwidth is growing much faster than the increase in commercially available memory bandwidth, causing a growing interest in input-queued switches. Furthermore, an increase in the proportion of multicast traffic in today's networks makes it important that they support such traffic efficiently. This paper presents the design of the scheduler for an MxN input-queued multica...

We describe our ongoing work in accident analysis. Accident reports should tell us at least what the accident was and what the critical events were. A third requirement hey should fulfil is to explain these events (see below) and their sequence (-~temporal reasoning). Explanation concerns causes (-~cansal reasoning), human intentions, purposes, capabilities and behavior (so-called human factors...

Brodifacoum, a new rodenticide, is described. This anticoagulant is shown to be of exceptional potency and capable of controlling resistant rodents as well as several non-commensal species. Results demonstrate that, in contrast to first generation anticoagulants, a bait concentration of only 50 ppm is adequate to give control and in only a single feeding for most species. In common with other a...

A reliable estimate of potential evapotranspiration (PET) for a forest ecosystem is critical in ecohydrologic modeling related with water supply, vegetation dynamics, and climate change and yet is a challenging task due to its complexity. Based on long-term on-site measured hydro-climatic data and predictions from earlier validated hydrologic modeling studies, this study compared different meth...

Sustainable development is a development that meets the needs of present generation while not compromising the ability of future generations to also meet their needs. There are 2 cases of sustainability. Case-1 is due to the discrepancy of environment and Case-2 is due to the change of environment. User, usage context and cultural aspects play important roles in the sustainability of system. Di...

We study optimization methods for source-initiated energy-efficient broadcast in all-wireless networks. Past studies on energy-efficient broadcast [1,3,5] focus on deterministic optimization to construct an energy-efficient broadcast tree. We present a Random Tree Optimization (RTO) approach that transforms the deterministic optimization problem into a related stochastic one. We apply the cross...
