Rational design of blood-wetted devices requires a careful consideration of shear-induced trauma and activation of blood elements. Critical levels of shear exposure may be established in vitro through the use of devices specifically designed to prescribe both the magnitude and duration of shear exposure. However, it is exceptionally difficult to create a homogeneous shear-exposure history by co...

How to resolve the control flow breaking caused by the branch instructions is a major issue in modern deep pipeline processor design. Our project is based on the paper of J. Stark et. al. [1], a variable length path branch predictor. It uses the branch path information for prediction, and change the length of the path dynamically based on the profiling of the application. It shows that a “cleve...

We examined how people perceive their path of traveling from optic flow. Observers viewed displays simulating their traveling on a circular path over a textured ground, a random-dot ground, or a dynamic random-dot ground display in which dots were periodically redrawn to remove extended dot motion trajectories (flow lines) in the flow field. Five viewing conditions were tested in which the simu...

This paper presents an evolutionary algorithm for the network design problem in the liner shipping industry with focus on the fitness calculation. The main contribution of this work are several new business constraints, such as committed partner capacities using a maximum flow algorithm and the transit times using a shortest path evaluation. Beside the cargo flows, the transit times are importa...

In this paper we present a novel approach to exploiting ILP through the use of resource-flow computing. This model begins by executing instructions independent of data flow and control flow dependencies in a program. The rest of the execution time is spent applying programmatic data flow and control flow constraints to end up with a programmatically-correct execution. We present the design of a...

Aiming at complex labyrinth-channel emitters’ structure and the practical problem of clogging, this paper investigates the practical flow of water, mixed with sand escaped from filtering, in the labyrinth channel. CFD analysis has been performed on liquid-solid two-phase flow in labyrinthchannel emitters. Based on micro-PIV (particle image velocimetry) flow visualization technology, the flow in...

We present Drive, a system for the conceptual layout of 3D path networks. Our sketch-based interface allows users to efficiently author path layouts with minimal instruction. Our system incorporates some new and noteworthy components. We present the break-out lens, a novel widget for interactive graphics, inspired by break-out views used in engineering visualization. We also make three contribu...

Traffic engineering and fast reroute are the two major applications of constraint based routing Traffic engineering is the process of controlling how traffic flows through a service provider’s network so as to optimize resource utilization and network performance[1]. Traffic engineering is needed in the Internet mainly because the shortest path is used in current intradomain routing protocols (...

in this paper, shortest path design problem (spdp) in which the path is incident to all cells is considered. the bi-directional path is one of the known types of configuration of networks for automated guided vehi-cles (agv).to solve this problem, two algorithms are developed. for each algorithm an integer linear pro-gramming (ilp) is determined. the objective functions of both algorithms are t...
