[Abstract]: With a fast paced development of Bioinformatics in recent years, we have witnessed a rapid growth of the number of databases and tools available for aiding in scientific research and knowledge discovery for Bioinformaticians. Web service is an enabling technique to facilitate Bioinformaticians in this discovery process by integrating the databases and tools. In this paper, we will propose a novel system, called Bio-Sense, for supporting the sharing and exploration in Bioinformatics using semantic Web services. The promising features of Bio-Sense will be discussed in this paper.

GPFlow: An Intuitive Environment Based Scientific Workflow
2006-01-01
Increasingly scientists are using collections of software tools in their research. These tools are typically used in concert, often necessitating laborious and error prone manual data reformatting and transfer. We present an intuitive workflow environment to support scientists with their research. The workflow, GPFlow, wraps legacy tools, presenting a high level, interactive web based frontend to scientists. The workflow backend is realized by a commercial grade workflow engine (BizTalk). The workflow model is inspired by spreadsheets and is novel in its support for an intuitive method of interaction as required by many scientists e.g. bioinformaticians. We apply GPFlow to two bioinformatics experiments and demonstrate its flexibility and simplicity.

Critical review of data mining techniques for gene expression analysis
2008-01-01
Classification of gene expression data has been exploded in the recent years. This can aid in the development of efficient methodology in the field of bio-informatics to be used for tumours diagnosis and treatment. Data mining is an effective technique being used in this field. One of the most difficulties facing this technology is the inappropriate classification methods that examine complex structure of gene expression data. In this paper, we give a brief introduction of gene expression data with experiment and we have made a critical review of major techniques being applied in the field of gene expression data with help of data mining. It can be seen that researchers have developed various techniques for gene data classification. In addition, they may differ from one to another whereas results are still showing the need for enhancement in this field. Some of these techniques are addressed in this paper in term of advantages and disadvantages. Accordingly, the deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) is considered as the maestro of the tumour-derived factors. Analyzing changes on the gene expression may give rise for diagnosis enhancement of affected tissues in their early stages. For that reason, an ongoing research is addressing the problem of subspace clustering methodologies suitable for high dimensional datasets and verify of the new methodologies using appropriate datasets, particularly suitable for the analysis of gene expression data. In this context, researchers have identified various limitations of these methods particularly in the areas of information integration systems, text-mining and bio-informatics. In this context, researchers have identified various limitations of these methods particularly in the areas of information integration systems, text-mining and bio-informatics. This paper aims too at providing an overview of the published literature with a particular focus on the current status of subspaces clustering for knowledge discovery toward tumour diagnosis. This is considered to be an essential step in attempt to overcome the limitations and provide effective statistical model in sense of genetic knowledge discovery.2008E1Yes Publisher: U.S.A.

Power factor control using brushless doubly fed reluctance machines
2000-01-01
The brushless doubly-fed machine (BDFM) allows the use of a partially rated inverter in many variable speed applications with limited speed variations. In its induction machine form (BDFIM), however, the BDFM has significant rotor losses and poor efficiency due to the cage rotor design. A reluctance version of the BDFM, the brushless doubly-fed reluctance machine (BDFRM), ideally has no rotor losses, and therefore offers the potential for greater efficiency and simpler control compared to the BDFIM. A theoretical study of this interesting machine is very important in order to gain a thorough understanding of its unusual operation, control features and compromises between optimal performance and the size of the inverter and the machine. This paper specifically concentrates on power factor control properties of the machine and trade-offs with other control objectives such as maximum torque per inverter ampere and minimum copper losses. To date this kind of analysis has not appeared in the literature. Publisher: Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) Relation: IEEE Industry Applications Conference.

Designing a Truly Integrated (Onsite and Online) Conference: Concept, Processes, Solutions
2010-01-13
Web conferencing tools have entered the mainstream of business applications. Using web conferencing for IEEE conferences has a good potential of adding value to both organizers and participants. Authors propose a concept of Truly Integrated Conference (TIC) according to which a multi-point worldwide-distributed network of conference online authors/participants will enhance the standard (centralized) IEEE conference model, which requires attendance of the participants in person at the main conference location. The concept entails seamless integration of the onsite and online conference systems, including data/presentation, video, audio channels. Benefits and challenges of the TIC concept are analyzed. Requirements to the web conferencing system capable of supporting the TIC conference are presented and reviewed against commercial web conferencing tools. Case study of the IEEE Toronto International Conference ? Science and Technology for Humanity, which was the first realization of TIC, is presented which analyzes various aspects (organizational, technological, and financial) of the integrated conference.
Symmetry compensation using a H-Bridge multilevel STATCOM with zero sequence injection
2006-01-01
This paper examines the use of a H-bridge cascade multilevel STATCOM for symmetry compensation. One of the particular problems H-bridge based STATCOMs have when used in these applications is maintaining correct voltages on the H-bridge capacitors for each of the individual phases of the STATCOM. This difficulty is the result of average real power flowing in or out of the individual phase legs. A solution has already been published for the delta connected STATCOM, but has not, until this paper, been solved for the wye connected topology. This paper uses a new approach to solve the phase leg power balance problem using zero sequence current and voltage injection. It allows the individual phase voltages for both the delta and wye connected cascaded H-bridge STATCOM to be controlled. Furthermore, when implemented for the delta connected STATCOM it leads to a more elegant and parameter independent control system architecture.

Securing the ad hoc dynamic source routing protocol
2006-01-01
Ad-hoc routing protocols are challenging to design and the need for security services further complicates the situation. So far the proposals for routing in ad-hoc networks offer no security mechanisms at all, or have only partial solutions for protecting the routing. In this paper, we present a scheme for providing security services for routing of control messages in an ad-hoc network. Our focus is on on-demand routing protocols for ad-hoc networks, specifically the dynamic source routing protocol.4 page(s) Publisher: Piscataway, USA : IEEE Contributor: Macquarie University.

Robustness of the new owner-tester approach for face identification experiments
2007-01-01
With the broad application of face identification, it is important that the performance estimated for an algorithm using a sample can be generalized to the population performance. We proposed using an Owner-Tester setup to replace the current approach for experiments on face identification (or other biometrics and pattern recognition systems). This paper looks into the robustness of the Owner-Tester setup in terms of goodness of fit and performance estimation using misidentification risk -the newly suggested performance evaluation metric. Testing results have indicated that the approach is robust in term of goodness of fit and performance estimation.6 page(s) Publisher: Minnesota, USA : IEEE Contributor: Macquarie University.

Exploiting CoBTx-Net to verify the reliability of collaborative business transactions
2007-01-01
The collaborative business process can be unreliable when business partners collaborate in a peer-to-peer fashion without central control. An important issue that needs to be dealt with for any generic solution to manage collaborative business transaction is reliability verification. In this paper, a business collaboration model, choreographical business transaction net (CoBTx-Net) is developed for individual business participants to specify and manage the collaboration. Three reliability properties named time-embedded dead marking freeness, inter-organizational dead marking freeness, and collaborative soundness are defined and exploited to verify reliability based on CoBTx-Net.8 page(s) Publisher: Tsukuba Science City, Japan : IEEE Contributor: Macquarie University.

An optimised parallel tree search for multiuser detection with VLSI implementation strategy
2004-01-01
Multiuser detection (MUD) strategies have the potential to significantly increase the capacity of wireless communications systems, but for these to be useful they must also be practical for implementation in VLSI circuits. In particular, while the maximum-likelihood (ML) solution is optimal in bit error rate, it cannot be directly implemented due to its exponential computational complexity. Lattice decoders, such as the sphere search, exhibit near-optimal ML performance with reduced complexity, but their application is still limited by computational requirements. Here, a number of optimisations are presented, designed to reduce the computational cost of the sphere search, in the context of VLSI implementation. We also propose parallel implementation strategies for such a detector. This is then combined with a single-pass tree search approach that can be designed to not significantly impair error-rate performance. While the design is targeted towards a MUD application, the concepts may also be applied to a multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) system, or similar applications.

A rule driven approach for developing adaptive service oriented business collaboration
2006-01-01
Current composite Web service development and management solutions, e.g. BPEL, do not cater for flexible and adaptive business collaborations due to their pre-defined and inflexible nature that precludes them accommodating business dynamics. In this paper we propose a rule driven approach for adaptive business collaboration development in which rules drive and govern the development process. We firstly introduce the business collaboration context framework (BCCF), which provides enterprises with the context required for business collaboration. We then explain our model driven approach with which enterprises can capture this context in business collaboration models. Subsequently we demonstrate how we utilize rules to drive the development and management of such models, as such facilitating flexible and adaptive business collaboration.8 page(s) Publisher: United States : IEEE Computer Society Contributor: Macquarie University.

Effects of Processing Fluctuations on a 0.1 MOSFET
1995-01-01
Fluctuations in the processing parameters can lead to a separation between the gate and the sourceldrain extensions in MOSFETs. A O.lµ MOSFET was simulated with 5%, and 10% separation and it was found that the transconductance was reduced, the threshold voltage was not significantly changed, and that there was no effect on the breakdown because the device has suffered punchthrough rather than avalanche breakdown.

Joint power and rate control in ad hoc networks using a supermodular game approach
2010-01-01
In ad hoc networks, reducing energy consumption and improving throughput are both important for high network performance. This paper presents a joint power and rate control adaptive algorithm to optimize the trade-off between power consumption and throughput in ad hoc networks. Each node chooses its own transmission power and rate based on limited environment information in order to achieve optimal transmission efficiency. In a fictitious game framework with strategy space transformation, our joint power and rate control adaptive algorithm can be viewed as a supermodular game. By interpreting the supermodular game using myopic best response updates, this algorithm can converge to the unique optimal transmission efficiency. Finally, the simulation results show that this supermodular game approach improves the average transmission efficiency by about 33%.6 page(s) Publisher: Piscataway, N.J : IEEE Contributor: Macquarie University.

The techniques include the wavelet transform, the S transform, and the newly introduced forward Clarke transform. The last method has the advantage for monitoring all three phases of a three-phase signal simultaneously. The paper provides unique features for each transformation, and then offers a comparative study that is based on the abilities of selected pairs of features to distinguish power quality events. In the paper, the performance of each signal processing technique is studied and an optimum combination of the most useful features is identified.

A secure multicast support framework for mobile IP
2003-01-01
More and more applications are relying on underlying IP multicast facility to disseminate information to several receivers simultaneously with minimum overheads. These include real time applications such as video conferencing and Internet audio as well as non real time services. Concurrently, there is a paradigm shift from wired to wireless communication. As portable computers proliferate, networks rely on a limited number of stationary hosts and aim to provide seamless connectivity to mobile hosts. Hence, there is an urgent need to integrate these two facilities together. However, there are serious security concerns that need to be addressed before one can exploit this combined facility. Security issues in multicasting such as dynamic group management are further aggravated due in the mobile environment. In this paper, we describe the security issues in multicasting and propose a secure multicast framework for Mobile IP.6 page(s) Publisher: Piscataway, NJ : Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, Inc Contributor: Macquarie University.

On useful redundancy in experiment design for nonlinear system identification
2008-01-01
In the paper, a formulation is proposed for optimal experiment design dedicated to the identification of nonlinear systems. In particular, a recently introduced redundancy property associated to dynamic systems related inverse problems is heavily exploited to guarantee global convergence. The paper considers general discrete-time nonlinear systems in which measurements are affected by bounded noise. An illustrative example is used to show the merits of the proposed approach.

MAC access delay in IEEE 802.11e EDCA
2007-01-01
In this paper, we analyze the MAC access delay of the EDCA mechanism in the IEEE 802.11e standard under saturation. We model the effect of differentiation based on both contention window size and inter-frame spacing. Explicit expressions for the mean, the standard deviation and the generating function of the distribution of the access delay are obtained. By applying numerical inversion on the generating function, we are able to compute values of the distribution. We show that our analytical model is accurate through comparison with simulation.

Energy-efficient virtual backbones for reception-aware MANET
2006-01-01
A simple, yet popular way to design energy-efficient routing for Mobile Ad Hoc Networks (MANET) is to use a virtual backbone that forms a minimum sized Connected Dominating Set (CDS) of the network topology. By minimising the number of forwarding nodes, it looks at extending the (battery-dependent) life-span of the network by minimising the number (and energy cost) of transmitting nodes. In this paper, we consider a more realistic model in which the energy cost of the receiving nodes (including nodes overhearing packets) is also taken into account, and show that current CDS algorithms may lead to backbones that are ineffective at minimising the overall energy cost during broadcast. We first prove that a (realistic) reception-aware model leads to a new NP-complete problem - we have coined this Connected Exact Cover - to reduce the energy drain due to the number of overheard receptions while broadcasting in MANET. This holds even if all nodes transmit at the same power. Then we introduce two algorithms, one centralised and one distributed, and show with several simulations that these algorithms generate virtual backbones that consume less energy during broadcasts compared to the best virtual backbone schemes known in the literature.5 page(s) Publisher: United States : IEEE Press Contributor: Macquarie University.

Using directed graphs to describe entity dependency in stable distributed persistent stores
1995-01-01
In a persistent object store, the acts of modifying data and reading modified data result in the creation of dependencies between the modifying process and the data. Dependencies may be represented using sets, and over time these may grow to encompass many objects and processes. Checkpoint and roll-back operations must propagate to all elements in such a set. This paper presents a new notation for representing dependencies, and shows that differentiating between the dependencies created by modifying data and reading modified data reduces the extent of propagation of checkpoint and roll-back operations.

Trust and recommendations in mobile ad hoc networks
2007-01-01
Recently several trust and reputation models have been proposed to enhance the security of mobile ad hoc networks. In these models, recommendations are circulated by forwarding explicit messages or introducing extra message headers. Apart from incurring additional overhead, the recommendations are prone to issues such as recommender's bias, honest-elicitation, and free-riding. In this paper, we propose a trust model to enhance the security of mobile ad hoc networks and to address the issues related to recommendations. The model uses only trusted routes for communication, and isolates malicious nodes depending on the evidence collected from direct interactions and recommendations. It deploys a novel approach for communicating recommendations such that they are free from recommender's bias, honest-elicitation, and free-riding. Simulation results confirm the effectiveness of our model.6 page(s) Publisher: Los Alamitos, CA : IEEE Computer Society Contributor: Macquarie University.

Properties of InN grown by remote plasma enhanced chemical vapour deposition
2005-01-01
We have investigated the properties of indium nitride (InN) grown at various temperatures on c-plane sapphire substrates using remote plasma enhanced chemical vapour deposition (RPECVD). The optical absorption spectra show a broad range of the apparent band-gap from 0.90 to 2.18 eV, depending on the growth temperature. These two extreme apparent band-gaps are similar to the controversial values of 0.7 and 1.9 eV quoted in the InN band-gap debate [1-3]. Along with optical absorption results, the influence of growth temperature on growth rate, and carrier concentration is discussed. The correlations between the carrier concentration, and shallowdonors (oxygen and hydrogen) in InN are also analysed.4 page(s) Publisher: Piscataway, NJ : IEEE Contributor: Macquarie University.

Pancam : in-service inspection of locomotive pantographs
2007-01-01
Pancam is an inspection system for in-service monitoring of wear and damage to pantographs on electric locomotives. Damage and wear of pantographs can cause damage to the locomotive and overhead wiring with subsequent interruption of service. Pancam uses CCD cameras to capture side and top views of the pantographs of locomotives in normal service. The side view is analysed for wear and damage to the carbon current collectors while the top view is analysed for damage to the horns on the pantograph. Analysis results are reported to railway staff through a database with a thin-client Web interface. This paper presents an overview of the Pancam system and discusses some of the analysis techniques. Performance results are also presented.7 page(s) Publisher: Los Alamitos, CA : IEEE Contributor: Macquarie University.

The traditional ACID properties for transactions are typically ignored in the Web services environment to ensure an acceptable level of service. However, this common lack of isolation can cause difficulties. We look at ways to reduce these problems but still maintain an acceptable level of service.

Intelligent agents and P2P Semantic Web
2007-01-01
The semantic Web aims to address the limitations of the World Wide Web by providing content that can be interpreted by both humans and machines, thus enabling intelligent agents acting on behalf of humans and/or other agents to discover and reason with the available information in Berners-Lee, J. (2001). While there has been tremendous progress on the infrastructure development for the Semantic Web, it has been observed that comparable progress in the use of the agent technology is still lacking by Hendler, J. (2007). In the mean time, Peer-to-Peer (P2P) networks have been very successful by making available and redistributing huge amounts of data among millions of networked computers. This naturally leads to the concept of a distributed Semantic Web archive integrated with the existing Semantic Web that resides on a P2P network of user nodes (hence so-called P2P Semantic Web).1 page(s) Publisher: Beijing, China : IEEE Contributor: Macquarie University.

Evaluation and comparison of robust optimal experiment design criteria
2006-01-01
This paper further develops a new approach to optimal experiment design for dynamical systems by introducing and comparing different robust optimal experiment design criteria. Until recently, solutions to the optimal experiment design problem were paradoxical in so far that the optimal experiment depended on the system parameters, i.e. the optimal experiment depended on the very thing that the experiment was aimed at finding. In a recent paper, we proposed an alternative approach, robust in nature, to the experiment design problem which, inter-alia, allowed for the possibility that the true parameters lay in a convex set. Here we further explore this robust solution. In particular, we examine the role played by different design criteria.

Electrical properties of Te-doped MOCVD grown GaSb Schottky diodes
2002-01-01
Dimethyltelluride has been used as a dopant source for GaSb epilayers grown by atmospheric pressure MOCVD (Metalorganic Chemical Vapour Deposition). Schottky diodes were fabricated using Al barriers and Au-Ge-Ni as Ohmic contact. Doping densities of about 4.1x10¹⁸ cm⁻³ and barrier heights of 0.63 eV are found from C-V measurements, compared to 0.59 eV determined from room temperature I-V measurements. Room temperature ideality factors are around 1.3, while its variation with temperature demonstrates the role of electron tunnelling through the depletion barrier. The carrier concentration probed by C-V is confirmed by van der Pauw Hall measurements. The effect of thermal annealing on the diodes is also reported.4 page(s) Publisher: Danvers, USA : IEEE Contributor: Macquarie University.

Application based meta tagging of network connections
2008-01-01
Modern operating systems offer a large array of features in their network subsystems that support fine-grained access control, monitoring and accounting. Such features allow a system administrator to account and filter outgoing network connections based on attributes such as the destination IP address and port number of the connection. With the increase in multi-user systems such as grid networks and shared Web hosting, the complexity of these tasks has increased. Current operating systems lack the ability to determine the intent of a network connection based on the connection's technical characteristics alone. This paper presents a new mechanism by which applications themselves are given the ability to pass meta information to the network subsystem, allowing it to take advantage of application specific data.

Analysis, specification and generation of mobile computer data synchronisation
2005-01-01
In current technologies, mobile computer data synchronisation protocols are typically programmed at a low-level. The disadvantages of this are that they are error-prone and time consuming. This paper analyses current Palm OS data synchronisation problems and applies embedded domain-specific language (EDSL) techniques in the problem domain to improve the current situation. The key advantage is that domain developers can describe problems using their natural terms and concepts at high conceptual level. Our approach allows equivalent code to be generated automatically from higher-level specifications, enabling domain developers to express their ideas quickly and concisely, to work more productively and to avoid certain kinds of coding error.8 page(s) Publisher: New Jersey, USA : IEEE Computer Society Contributor: Macquarie University.

An examination of operating system support for persistent object systems
1992-01-01
Examines operating system support for persistent systems that execute on conventional hardware architectures. The focus of the paper is to examine the inadequacies of traditional operating systems as vehicles for the construction of persistent systems. The authors concentrate on four major areas, namely addressing, stability and resilience, process management and protection. They examine the consequences of making the operating system kernel itself persistent. They conclude by outlining the requirements which must be met by future operating systems designed to support orthogonal persistence.

We present a novel structure determination approach that exploits the global orientational restraints from RDCs to resolve ambiguous NOE assignments. Unlike traditional approaches that bootstrap the initial fold from ambiguous NOE assignments, we start by using RDCs to compute accurate secondary structure element (SSE) backbones at the beginning of structure calculation. Our structure determination package, called RDC-PANDA: (RDC-based SSE PAcking with NOEs for Structure Determination and NOE Assignment), consists of three modules: (1) RDC-EXACT: ; (2) PACKER: ; and (3) HANA: (HAusdorff-based NOE Assignment). RDC-EXACT: computes the global optimal solution of backbone dihedral angles for each secondary structure element by exactly solving a system of quartic RDC equations derived by Wang and Donald (Proceedings of the IEEE computational systems bioinformatics conference (CSB), Stanford, CA, 2004a; J Biomol NMR 29(3):223-242, 2004b), and systematically searching over the roots, each of which is a backbone dihedral varphi- or psi-angle consistent with the RDC data. Using a small number of unambiguous inter-SSE NOEs extracted using only chemical shift information, PACKER: performs a systematic search for the core structure, including all SSE backbone conformations. HANA: uses a Hausdorff-based scoring function to measure the similarity between the experimental spectra and the back-computed NOE pattern for each side-chain from a statistically-diverse rotamer library, and drives the selection of optimal position-specific rotamers for filtering ambiguous NOE assignments. Finally, a local minimization approach is used to compute the loops and refine side-chain conformations by fixing the core structure as a rigid body while allowing movement of loops and side-chains. RDC-PANDA: was applied to NMR data for the FF Domain 2 of human transcription elongation factor CA150 (RNA polymerase II C-terminal domain interacting protein), human ubiquitin, the ubiquitin-binding zinc finger domain of the human Y-family DNA polymerase Eta (pol eta UBZ), and the human Set2-Rpb1 interacting domain (hSRI). These results demonstrated the efficiency and accuracy of our algorithm, and show that RDC-PANDA: can be successfully applied for high-resolution protein structure determination using only a limited set of NMR data by first computing RDC-defined backbones.

The Navigational Control of Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (AUV) using Color Petri nets

This paper addresses the navigational control and execution of motion estimation in the intelligent AUV system using color Petri nets simulation. This process is on the bases of the real-time network cycle and pre-planned directions as well as real-time data collection to estimate, decide and control various commands within underwater landmarks and waypoints. The other feature of this approach is its simplicity in the detection and recognition of possible underwater objects within the navigation route of underwater operational activity. The technique makes it attractive from the computational standpoint and guarantees its application to real-time autonomous guidance and the navigation system.Amir M.

A novel adaptive fuzzy sliding mode control design is developed for trajectory tracking of a class of nonlinear systems in this paper. This control design uses the modelling error to adaptively estimate the deterministic uncertainties as well as the control gain based on the fuzzy systems approach. By this design, the bounds of the uncertainties are not required to be known in advance, and the robust stability of closed loop systems is analysed in the Lyapunov sense. Simulation results are given to demonstrate the improved performance.

This paper focuses on wireless capsule endoscope magnetic field based localization by using a linear algorithm, an unconstrained optimization method and a constrained optimization method. Eight sensor populations are employed for performance evaluation. For each of five sensor populations, four different sensor configurations are investigated, which represent potential sensor placements in practice. Accuracy is evaluated over a range of noise standard deviations and the position area is set on a solid cylinder which well represents the realistic scenario of the human body. It is observed that the optimization method greatly outperforms the linear algorithm that should not be used alone in general. The constrained optimization approach outperforms the unconstrained optimization method in presence of large noise. Simulation results show that best position accuracy is achieved when the sensors are uniformly deployed on a 2D plane with some sensors on the boundary of the position area. For the sensor populations considered, when increasing sensor population by one, the accuracy improves by about 0.45 divided by the sensor population. The results provide useful information for the design of wireless endoscope localization systems.6 page(s) Publisher: Piscataway, N.J : IEEE Contributor: Macquarie University.

Sizes of minimum connected dominating sets of a class of wireless sensor networks
2008-01-01
We consider an important performance measure of wireless sensor networks, namely, the least number of nodes, N, required to facilitate routing between any pair of nodes, allowing other nodes to remain in sleep mode in order to conserve energy. We derive the expected value and the distribution of N for single dimensional dense networks.

Performance of fuzzy logic ABR rate control with large round trip times
1998-01-01
For ABR to be practical, its rate must be able to be controlled effectively even in the presence of a large round trip time (RTT). This paper compares the performance of a previously proposed fuzzy logic controller for ABR with a simple threshold based scheme in this case. The fuzzy logic scheme is found to be significantly more sensitive to increases in the RTT than the non-fuzzy scheme.

Estimation of static eccentricity severity in induction motors for on-line condition monitoring
2006-01-01
Copyright © 2006 IEEEA range of features of sensor signals have been proposed as fault indicators for the detection of rotor eccentricity faults in induction motors. In previous studies, experimental investigation of the behavior of these features in relation to static eccentricity faults have only been performed for a limited range of load levels and fault severities. This has resulted in an incomplete understanding of the practicalities of static eccentricity diagnosis and severity estimation using these features. This paper presents a comprehensive experimental study using a 2.2 kW 3-phase induction motor operated from no load to full load and with static eccentricity severity settings at multiples of 12.5%. The data from these experiments is used to investigate the estimation of static eccentricity severity with commonly used eccentricity fault indicators Publisher: IEEE: Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Contributor: School of Electrical and Electronic Engineering; IEEE Industry Applications Conference (41st : 2006 : Tampa, Florida) Other identifier: Conference Record of the 2006 IEEE Industry Applications Conference, 2006. 41st IAS Annual Meeting, Volume 5, 8-12 Oct:pp.2312-2319; 1424403650; 0020062204; 10.1109/IAS.2006.256864 Language: en

Analysis,design and experimentation of a zero-voltage switching
2006-01-01
A Zero-Voltage Switching (ZVS) two-inductor boost converter with an integrated magnetic structure has been previously proposed to achieve the size and cost reduction in the converter design with discrete magnetics. In the integrated magnetic structure, the five copper windings and the four cores required by the two input inductors, the resonant inductor and the transformer in the original ZVS converter are reduced to three copper windings and one three-limbed core. This paper presents a detailed magnetic analysis of the ZVS two-inductor boost converter with the magnetic integration. The equivalent input and transformer magnetising inductances are established in terms of the reluctances of the individual core limbs and the numbers of the individual windings. This allows the converter with the integrated magnetics to be modelled and analysed using an equivalent design with discrete magnetics. The effects of the leakage reluctances are also considered. The magnetic circuit analysis tool can be also used for any other converters with magnetic integration. In the magnetic design process, the peak and the ac flux densities in the three core limbs are solved explicitly so that saturation and core loss calculation can be easily performed. Finally the theoretical waveforms of a 40-W 1-MHz ZVS converter are also provided to verify the theoretical analysis.

Solving Sum and Product Riddle via BDD-based Model Checking
2008-01-01
We model the Sum and Product Riddle in public announcement logic, which is interpreted on an epistemic Kripke model. The model is symbolically represented as a finite state program with n agents. A model checking method to the riddle is developed by using the BDD-based symbolic model checking algorithm for logic of knowledge we developed in [7]. The method is implemented by extending the model checker MCTK [7] and then the solution of the riddle is verified successfully.

Determining the service composition strategy suitable for service-oriented applications is an essential design issue. As a first step towards understanding service composition, in this paper, we present a comparison study with two different service composition strategies. One is driven by industrial application--BPEL, the other is inspired by the booming research development in semantic web--OWL-S. We compare the two major strategies with each other through the Collaborative Virtual Enterprise (CVE) scenario. Five key dimensions for service composition requirement have been identified. These dimensions belong to two types. One type of dimensions is essential requirement including component model, orchestration model and data flow model. The other type is desirable requirement including error handler and transaction, and quality of service. We provide the comparison between BPEL and OWLS against the five dimensions. Our comparison shows that OWL-S is more suitable for dynamic environments and BPEL is an ideal choice for controlled workflow.

A framework to minimize energy consumption for wireless sensor networks
2006-01-01
This paper presents a framework to minimize energy consumption in the medium access control (MAC) layer for wireless sensor networks. While satisfying a range of quality of service (QoS) requirements, such as the packet transmission success rate and maximum delay constraint, we optimally choose the lengths of periods in which sensors are active and inactive, such that the energy consumption per unit time in the entire network is minimized. We first use our framework to optimize the values of the MAC attributes macBeaconOrder and macSuperframeOrder in an IEEE 802.15.4 beacon-enabled star network. Then we consider a much simpler protocol, which we call 'select-and-transmit' (S&T), and the same framework is applied to find the optimal lengths of the active and inactive portions. Finally, we compare the minimal energy consumption of the IEEE 802.15.4 MAC and S&T under the same QoS requirements and show that the IEEE 802.15.4 MAC outperforms S&T in most cases. However, the S&T MAC performs better than the standard under our framework in certain scenarios, e.g., event-driven sensor networks where the packet transmission success rate is usually low.

A chilled ceiling panel using PCM is developed. Study has research on its thermal performance and analysis on heat transfer mechanism. Phase change process of PCM has three stages, solid Mushy and Liquid. Mathematic model is built for the cool room and simulation is made to evaluate the thermal performance. Contact thermal resistance and conduction shape factor are taken into consideration. Existence of air gap between PCM and aluminum plate largely decreases the heat conduction coefficient, which has great influence on the stability of the cool room temperature and phase change time. Heat load of conduction shape factor constitutes major part of total heat load. Simulation gives the high accuracy of trend of PCM ceiling thermal performance. When structure determined, refrigerant temperature Tin, environmental Ten, air velocity v have influence on performance of PCM ceiling, but the influence degrees are different, according to the single factor changing experiment and orthogonal design analysis for multi-factors influence which are taken.

Investigating the Potential of Service Oriented Architectures to Realize Dynamic Capabilities
2007-01-01
The paradigm of service-oriented computing (SOC) has emerged as an architectural approach to flexibility and agility, not just in systems development but also in business process management. There is, however, a paucity of critical research assessing the strategic impact of SOA on the competitiveness of organizations. Some research literature in strategic management indicates that firms may gain a competitive advantage in rapidly changing market environments by concentrating on their dynamic capabilities – i.e., product flexibility and agility in organizational transformation in response to rapidly changing market conditions and customer requirements. The intent of this paper is to analyze the conduits through which service-oriented architectures (SOAs) may exert influence on dynamic capabilities within firms. The results could potentially assist in evaluating if and how the adoption of service-oriented architecture may help achieve key dynamic capabilities, giving the enterprise a competitive edge.

Covariance Profiling for an Adaptive Kalman Filter to Suppress Sensor Quantization Effects
2004-01-01
This paper presents a generic approach to model the noise covariance associated with discrete sensors such as incremental encoders and low resolution analog to digital converters. The covariance is then used in an adaptive Kalman Filter that selectively and appropriately carries out measurement updates. The temporal as well as system state measurements are used to predict the quantization error of the measurement signal. The effectiveness of the method is demonstrated by applying the technique to incremental encoders of varying resolutions. Simulation of an example system with varying encoder resolutions is presented to show the performance of the new filter. Results show that the new adaptive filter produces more accurate results while requiring a lower resolution encoder than a similarly designed conventional Kalman filter, especially at low velocities.

This paper presents a semi-Markov model that evaluates the performance of TCP connections with asymmetric Additive Increase and Multiplicative Decrease (AIMD) congestion control settings involved in sharing of a common drop-tail router. We study the fairness of the connections and their individual bandwidth utilizations as well as packet loss rates. We confirm that certain asymmetric AIMD settings may achieve fairness in bandwidth sharing. We also found that while connections with asymmetric AIMD settings operate at different bandwidth utilizations, they generally experience similar packet loss rate.

Crowd counting using group tracking and local features
2010-01-01
In public venues, crowd size is a key indicator of crowd safety and stability. In this paper we propose a crowd counting algorithm that uses tracking and local features to count the number of people in each group as represented by a foreground blob segment, so that the total crowd estimate is the sum of the group sizes. Tracking is employed to improve the robustness of the estimate, by analysing the history of each group, including splitting and merging events. A simplified ground truth annotation strategy results in an approach with minimal setup requirements that is highly accurate.

The rapid growth of multimedia technology has resulted in an enormous amount of data that needs to be managed and indexed efficiently to provide effective labeling for an image indexing system requires all objects in the image to be identified. To perform better and effective object identification, the process needs to be performed automatically and without priori knowledge of the image content. This paper presents an approach in automatic object identification scheme, by analysing the image structural information. The image is segmented using image automatic segmentation techniques and components of objects are obtained by grouping the segments together. In this paper, we present the issues and problems involved in providing such identification scheme. Some experiment results will be presented.

A component-based approach to automated web service composition
2006-01-01
There is great promise in the idea of having Web services available on the Internet, that can be flexibly composed to achieve more complex services, which can themselves then also be used as components in other contexts. However it is challenging to realise this idea, without essentially programming the composition using some process language such as WS-BPEL or OWL-S process descriptions. This paper presents a mechanism for specifying the external interface to composite and component services, and then deriving an appropriate internal model to realise a functioning composition. We present a conversation specification language for defining interaction protocols and investigate the issue of synchronous and asynchronous communication between the composite service and the component services.

Artificial Neural Network Analysis of DNA Microarray-based Prostate Cancer Recurrence
2005-01-01
DNA microarray-based gene expression profiles have been established for a variety of adult cancers. This paper addresses application of an artificial neural network (ANN) with leave-one-out testsing and 8-fold cross-validation for analyzing DNA microarray data to identify genes predictive of recurrence after prostatectomy. Among 725 genes screened for ANN input, a 16-gene model resulted in 99-100% diagnostic sensitivity and specificity: DGCR5, FLJ10618, RIS1, PRO1855, ABCB9, AK057203, GOLGA5, HARS, AK024152, HEP27, PPIA, SNRPF, SULT1A3, SECTM1, EIF4EBP1, and S71435. Genes identified with ANN that are prognostic of prostate cancer recurrence may be either causal for prostate cancer or secondary to the disease. Nevertheless, the genes identified may be confirmed in the future to be markers of early detection and/or therapy.

Optimising web services performance with table driven XML
2006-01-01
The performance of the SOAP protocol has often been regarded relatively poor and requiring undue amounts of processor time, storage and bandwidth due to its use of text-based, metadata-laden XML encoding. There are many proposals available to tackle this perceived problem, however none of these coherently consider the different aspects of the problem: (1) message size; (2) message structure; (3) accessing individual elements; and (4) interoperability with other Web services protocols. The technique proposed in this paper: Table driven XML (TDXML) takes such a coherent view and offers more compact messages, simpler message structure and easier access to individual elements when compared to conventional SOAP. TDXML also enables keyed access to individual elements to enable single pass message parsing for improved object serialisation and deserialisation. Experimental studies show that TDXML can be incorporated easily into a commercially available SOAP implementation with 30% improved latency performance. Furthermore, this paper reports that TDXML can also be implemented with other transport mechanisms and provide even better performance (over 100%) than SOAP in regard to network bandwidth and latency.13 page(s) Publisher: United States : IEEE Computer Society Contributor: Macquarie University.

This paper reports initial work on creating frequency selective surfaces (FSS) on modern day glass windows to improve the transmission of wireless/mobile/cellular communication signals through the glass. The manufacturers of these glass windows apply very thin layers of metallic oxides on one side of glass to provide extra thermal insulation. These coatings block the infrared and ultraviolet waves to provide thermal insulation, but they also attenuate communication signlas such as GSM 900, GSM 1800/1900, UMTS and 3G mobile signals. This creates a major communication problem when buildings are constructed using mostly such type of glass. A bandpass FSS can provide a solution to increase the transmission of useful bands through the coated glass. In order to design an appropriate FSS, the relative permittivity and conductivity of glass should be measured accurately. Moreover, electrical properties of the coated layer must also be known in order to obtain a resonance in the desired band. In this work, we used two different methods of measuring the permittivity and conductivity of glass. Electrical properties of one of the common glass windows (Optithermtrade SN) are presented. Simulations of Optitherm glass shows about 35 dB transmission loss over 900-2200 MHz frequency band.4 page(s) Publisher: Bangkok, Thailand : IEEE Contributor: Macquarie University.

An InP/ln₀.₅₃Ga₀.₄₇As resonant tunnelling bipolar transistor with double heterojunction grown by molecular beam epitaxy and fabricated by selective wet chemical etching is presented. An In₀.₅₃Ga₀.₄₇As/AIAs resonant tunnelling diode which achieves a current density of 15 kA/cm² at a peak voltage of 1.6 V for a peak-to-valley ratio of 39:1 is integrated at the emitter of a double heterojunctiou InGaAs/lnP bipolar transistor. Results are presented for 3 µm x 3 µm emitter sue integrated device. A negative differential shape due to the resonant tunnelling effect at the emitter controlled by a 3.4 µA base current is observed in the common-eminer current-voltage characteristics at room temperature with a current density of 9.2 kA/cm² and a peak-to-valley ratio of 12:1. The maximum current gain of the device is 220. However beyond the resonant tunnelling peak, the resonant tunnelling transistor presents a histability where the collector current collapses dramatically, the transistor characteristics are recovered by increasing the collector-emitter voltage.4 page(s) Publisher: Piscataway, NJ : IEEE Contributor: Macquarie University.

Grain boundary modelling and characterization of thin-film silicon solar cell
1996-01-01
An analytical model is developed to decribe recombination currents arising from recombination at grain boundaries (GBs) in the depletion region of a p-n junction solar cell. Grain boundaries are modelled as having a single energy evel in the energy gap, and partial occupancy of these stats gives raise to a chage on the GB. The analytical model is compared to a complete numerical simulation package (DESSIS) and found to be in excellent agreement. Additionally,. cross sectional EBIC images of a multilayer device containing vertical GBs are presented. The experimental data is comared qualitatively with results derived from numerical modelling.

Co-Authorship Networks in the Digital Library Research Community
2005-02-12
The field of digital libraries (DLs) coalesced in 1994: the first digital library conferences were held that year, awareness of the World Wide Web was accelerating, and the National Science Foundation awarded $24 Million (U.S.) for the Digital Library Initiative (DLI). In this paper we examine the state of the DL domain after a decade of activity by applying social network analysis to the co-authorship network of the past ACM, IEEE, and joint ACM/IEEE digital library conferences. We base our analysis on a common binary undirectional network model to represent the co-authorship network, and from it we extract several established network measures. We also introduce a weighted directional network model to represent the co-authorship network, for which we define $AuthorRank$ as an indicator of the impact of an individual author in the network. The results are validated against conference program committee members in the same period. The results show clear advantages of PageRank and AuthorRank over degree, closeness and betweenness centrality metrics. We also investigate the amount and nature of international participation in Joint Conference on Digital Libraries (JCDL).
Two novel phase-frequency detectors
2006-01-01
This paper describes two novel phase-frequency detectors. The first one overcomes the non-linear transfer characteristic found in many conventional phase-frequency detectors and thus results in a PLL-VCO with low phase noise. The second phase-frequency detector can be used in a phase locked loop (PLL) to recover the carrier of a binary phase shift keyed (BPSK) signal, thus permitting the BPSK data to be demodulated with hardware that is significantly simpler and performs better than the Costas loop (Costas, 1956) Publisher: IEEE Format: application/pdf Other identifier: Kikkert, Cornelius J.

Harmonics-based bio-implantable telemetry system
2008-01-01
Miniaturization is a key focus for medically implantable electronics such as Cochlear and Retinal prosthesis, and medical monitoring and recording applications. The need for low power dissipation is equally important, and power-hungry crystals and oscillators are commonly used to produce and control the implant's carrier transmission frequency. This paper presents a new harmonics-based method that allows this transmission frequency to be varied and controlled externally, while also minimizing the size and power requirements of certain implanted devices.

Generic decoupled image-based visual servoing for cameras obeying the unified projection model
2009-01-01
In this paper a generic decoupled imaged-based control scheme for calibrated cameras obeying the unified projection model is proposed. The proposed decoupled scheme is based on the surface of object projections onto the unit sphere. Such features are invariant to rotational motions. This allows the control of translational motion independently from the rotational motion. Finally, the proposed results are validated with experiments using a classical perspective camera as well as a fisheye camera mounted on a 6 dofs robot platform.

Fuzzy control of picking mobile robot throttle open rate
2009-01-01
To enhance smooth throttle movement and maintain a special driving speed over various orchard road conditions, improve walking stability, we design the fuzzy controller to adjust the throttle open rate. According to the experimental data curve of throttle open rate and driving wheel speed on low-load test, speed sensor mounted on driving wheel to feedback the speed data converted to throttle open rate. Due to the picking mobile robot has no speed shift, it is essential to change the driving speed by the throttle open rate. In the end, picking mobile robot driving test verify the fuzzy controller the validity corresponding to specified values of driving wheel speed, and show that the behaviour of the picking mobile robot adapt to driving incidences, increasing the stability of the driving.Zhiyong Zhang, Dongjian He Tien-Fu Lu and Tommie.liddy Publisher: IEEE Contributor: School of Mechanical Engineering; International Conference on Intelligent Computing and Intelligent Systems (2009 : Shanghai, China) Other identifier: Proceedings of the 2009 IEEE International Conference on Intelligent Computing and Intelligent Systems, 2009: pp.170-174; 9781424447381; 0020096746; 10.1109/ICICISYS.2009.5357916 Language: en Rights: 2009 IEEE

© Copyright 2007 IEEEEstimator bank-based direction finding techniques make use of a number of parallel randomly weighted MUSIC direction-of-arrival (DOA) estimates and obtain the final estimate by keeping only the "successful" candidates while sorting out the outlying estimates. In this paper, we develop a powerful approach to detect the outliers in the estimator bank-based direction finders using the likelihood ratio quality assessment. Computer simulations show substantial improvements of the proposed approach as compared to the earlier techniques used to sort out the outliers in the estimator bank-based direction finding methods.Parvazi, P., Gershman, A.B. and Abramovich, Y.I.

Channel prediction using lumpable finite-state Markov channels in OFDMA systems
2006-01-01
Copyright © 2006 IEEEIn this paper, Rayleigh fading channel with an OFDMA system is modeled as a finite-state Markov channel (FSMC) by partitioning the received signal envelope into several intervals. With the aid of sub-band formation and property of lumpability, the size of feedback information can be reduced. This approach involves reducing an exponentially increased states of Markov channel to multiple lumpable Markov channels. The corresponding state transition probabilities and steady-state probabilities are used to predict channel states information in multiple symbol durations ahead. Some simulation examples are presented to illustrate the capability of the lumpable FSMC in channel prediction.Tommy K.

RFID is poised to drastically change the way industries collect and manage information. Research in this area has been growing in the past few years given the wide range of applications that can benefit from such a technology. In this paper we introduce the cognitive RFID integrated system platform (CRISP), a framework for development and implementation of RFID communication protocols. The framework enables advanced research in the area of RFID wireless communication protocols and algorithms. As such, CRISP provides a flexible, scalable, configurable and high performance RFID research tool. In the following sections the CRISP hardware implementation and software architecture are discussed in detail. Radio configurations and applications are presented. Future research made possible by this flexible platform is also discussed.Jamali, B.; Cole, P.H.; Cheng Chew Lim; Publisher: IEEE Contributor: School of Electrical and Electronic Engineering; IEEE Conference on Industrial Electronics and Applications (4th : 2009 : Xi'an, China) Other identifier: Proceedings of the 4th IEEE Conference on ICIEA, 2009;. pp.455-458; 0020090901; 10.1109/ICIEA.2009.5138247 Language: en
A MICS band wireless body sensor network
2007-01-01
This paper presents a MICS (medical implant communication service) based body sensor network design and implementation for patient physiological data collection for health monitoring purposes. The MICS band offers the advantage of miniaturized electronic devices that can either be used as an implanted node or as an external node. In this work, a prototype sensor network is implemented by incorporating temperature and pulse rate sensors on nodes. Each developed sensor node has the capability of physiological data acquisition and local processing. The sensor node can also transmit data over the air to a remote central control unit (CCU) for further processing and storage. The developed system offers medical staff to obtain patient's physiological data on demand basis via the Internet. Moreover, the system has been optimized for power consumption by using a polling architecture. Some preliminary performance data is presented in the paper.
