Kenneth L. Clarkson Stanford University §1 I n t r o d u c t i o n We present algorithms for solving the geometric minimum spanning tree problem: Given a set of n points hi d-dimensional space, find a minimum spraining tree for the complete weighted graph G dcfined by these points. The graph G has n vertices, each vertex identified with a point, with the weight of an edge given by the distance ...

A 5 year research program to investigate the effect of realistic hull form parameters on the added resistance of a yacht in waves is nearing completion. Model experiments and theoretical predictions were carried out and the results are discussed in this paper. Five hull form parameters have been investigated so far, they are: 1. stern overhang; 2. LCB-LCF separation; 3. prismatic coefficient, 4...

The TELLTALE Project proposes innovative research and development to protect the electronic component supply chain from recycled components which are purported to be new. The approach is to provide the capability for devices to self-attest their usage status based upon irreversible physical characteristics which manifest during host circuit operation. This usage information is transmitted upon ...

The aim of our research is to search for communicative patterns in task-oriented small groups from videotaped interaction sequences, using the software THEME (Magnusson, 2000). Theme has been developed to detect and analyze particular types of repeated syntactical real-time patterns based on probability theory, regardless of the type of behavioral units and time scale used. In Study One we anal...

1 Vehicle re-identification methods can be used to anonymously match vehicles crossing two 2 different locations based on vehicle attribute data. Most of the existing work in this area focuses 3 on matching vehicles between two locations that are separated by less than a mile or so. In this 4 paper, re-identification methods are developed to match commercial vehicles that cross two 5 weigh-in-m...
