the spontaneous generation of inertia–gravity waves (igws) in the idealized simulation of vortical flows is investigated using the isentropic two-layer model on a sphere. the contour-advective semi-lagrangian (casl) algorithm is applied to solve the primitive equations using the potential vorticity (pv), velocity divergence, and acceleration divergence as the prognostic variables. the casl algo...

In high speed networks, packet processing is relatively expensive while bandwidth is cheap. This begs the question: what elds can be added to packets to make packet processing easier? By exploring this question, we devise a number of novel mechanisms to speed up packet processing. With the advent of new standards for the Data Link, Network , and Transport layers, we believe there is an opportun...

AKIN, OZDEMIR. Active Queue Management and Scheduling Methods for Packet-Switched Networks (under the supervision of Dr. J. Keith Townsend) To support the myriad of envisioned communication products of the future, there is a need to develop a network infrastructure that can provide larger bandwidth, with better control of quality of service (QoS). However, with increasing demand for application...
