The economic model of rationality has a math ematical elegance and appeal Unfortunately standard decision theory is not generally feasi ble as a computational psychological or social model of rationality We propose an alternative model based on real istic assumptions of computational power psy chological ability and social interaction The traditional task for demonstrating rationality is decisi...

As an extension of our previous works in the optical-microwave interaction field, this paper shows the result of the research on large signal dynamic behavior (Pulsed I/V curves) of AlGaAs P-HEMT (pseudomorphic high electron mobility transistor) devices, in the overall I/V plane, when the incident optical input power is changed. A complete bias and optical power dependent of the large signal mo...

We explore the breakdown of universal mobility behavior in sub-100-nm Si MOSFETs, using a novel three-dimensional (3-D) statistical simulation approach. In this approach, carrier trajectories in the bulk are treated via 3-D Brownian dynamics, while the carrier-interface roughness scattering is treated using a novel empirical model. Owing to the high efficiency of the transport kernel, effective...

This study presents performance of call admission control and resource reservation schemes based on the mobility of the users in WCDMA cellular systems. In order to guarantee the handoff dropping probability, the mobility of the user is predicted based on a realistic mobility model. The mobility prediction scheme used in this study is used to estimate the set of candidate cells into which the m...

In this paper, we introduce the notion of mobility-cast in opportunistic networks, according to which a message sent by a user S is delivered to users with a mobility pattern similar to that of S – collectively named place-friends . Motivation for delivering a message to place-friends stems from the fact that current social acquaintances are likely to be place-friends. Most importantly, it has ...
