Scientific applications require processing highvolume on-line streams of numerical data from instruments and simulations. We present an extensible stream database system that allows scalable and flexible continuous queries on such streams. Application dependent streams and query functions are defined through an object-relational model. Distributed execution plans for continuous queries are desc...

Comparative study on Sea Surface Temperature: SST estimations among the conventional Multi-Channel Seat Surface Temperature: MCSST, split window method and the proposed Conjugate Gradient based method: CGM with Thermal Infrared Radiometer: TIR data through simulations is conducted. Utilizing the proposed linearized inversion of radiative transfer equation, SST can be estimated. SST estimation a...

We propose a new processing paradigm, called the Expandable Split Window (ESW) paradigm, for exploiting finegrain parallelism. This paradigm considers a window of instructions (possibly having dependencies) as a single unit, and exploits fine-grain parallelism by overlapping the execution of multiple windows. The basic idea is to connect multiple sequential processors, in a decoupled and decent...

Sensitivity analysis on Sea Surface Temperature: SST estimation with Thermal Infrared Radiometer: TIR data through simulations is conducted. Also Conjugate Gradient Method: CGM based SST estimation method is proposed. SST estimation error of the proposed CGM based method is compared to the conventional Split Window Method: SWM with a variety of conditions including atmospheric models. The resul...

We propose a generalized split-window method for retrieving land-surface temperature (LST) from AVHRR and MODIS data. Accurate radiative transfer simulations show that the coefficients in the split-window algorithm for LST must vary with the viewing angle, if we are to achieve a LST accuracy of about 1 K for the whole scan swath range (1t5.5" from nadir) and for the ranges of surface temperatur...
