A Composable Worst Case Latency Analysis for Multi-Rank DRAM Devices under Open Row Policy
(Springer, 2017-04-12)As multi-core systems are becoming more popular in real-time embedded systems, strict timing requirements for accessing shared resources must be met. In particular, a detailed latency analysis for Double Data Rate Dynamic ... -
Composite likelihood for aggregate data from clustered multistate processes under intermittent observation
(Taylor & Francis, 2019-03-11)Markov processes offer a useful basis for modeling the progression of organisms through successive stages of their life cycle. When organisms are examined intermittently in developmental studies, likelihoods can be constructed ... -
Composite likelihood for joint analysis of multiple multistate processes via copulas
(Oxford Journals, 2014-10)A copula-based model is described which enables joint analysis of multiple progressive multistate processes. Unlike intensity-based or frailty-based approaches to joint modeling, the copula formulation proposed herein ... -
A Composite Rigid Double Cantilever Beam Specimen for Assessing the Traction–Separation Response of Mode I Delamination in Composite Laminates
(Springer, 2023-01-16)Background Interlaminar delamination is a common damage mechanism in composite laminates that can lead to structural failure. Assessment using contemporary numerical modeling techniques requires delamination behavior as ... -
Composition of incubation solution impacts in vitro protein uptake to silicone hydrogel contact lenses
(Molecular Vision, 2012-02-04)Purpose: To determine the impact of incubation solution composition on protein deposition to silicone hydrogel (SH) contact lenses using a simplistic and a complex model of the tear film. Methods: Three SH materials – ... -
Comprehending the Crypto-Curious: How Investors and Inexperienced Potential Investors Perceive and Practice Cryptocurrency Trading
(Taylor & Francis, 2023-08-01)With the increasing popularity of cryptocurrency, many people are interested in cryptocurrency investments, but have so far hesitated. Many others have made investments without adequate preparation. To help interested ... -
A comprehensive review of the key technologies for pure electric vehicles
(Elsevier, 2019-09-01)Nowadays, the emissions from conventional vehicles significantly contribute to increasingly serious environmental issues. In addition, the energy crisis and the low energy efficiency of conventional vehicles also offer a ... -
A Comprehensive Screen of Metal Oxide Nanoparticles for DNA Adsorption, Fluorescence Quenching, and Anion Discrimination
(American Chemical Society, 2015-10-22)Although DNA has been quite successful in metal cation detection, anion detectioin remains challenging because of the charge repulsion. Metal oxides represent a very important class of materials, and different oxides might ... -
A comprehensive study of geothermal heating and cooling systems
(Elsevier, 2019-01-01)Geothermal heat is an energy source that is local, reliable, resilient, environmentally-friendly, and sustainable. This natural energy is produced from the heat within the earth, and has different applications, such as ... -
A comprehensive study on the stability analysis of vehicle dynamics with pure/combined-slip tyre models
(Taylor & Francis, 2016-09-28)In this paper, a vehicle's lateral dynamic model is developed based on the pure and the combined-slip LuGre tyre models. Conventional vehicle's lateral dynamic methods derive handling models utilising linear tyres and ... -
Compressed Sensing for Elastography in Portable Ultrasound
(Sage Journals, 2017-07-01)Portable wireless ultrasound has many advantages such as high portability, easy connectivity, strong individuality, as well as on-site diagnostic ability in real-time. Some of the modern portable ultrasound devices offer ... -
Compressions of Compact Tuples
(Elsevier, 2019-03-01)We study the matrix range of a tuple of compact operators on a Hilbert space and examine the notions of minimal, nonsingular, and fully compressed tuples. In this pursuit, we refine previous results by characterizing ... -
Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) Applied to a Glass Vaporization Chamber for Introduction of Micro- or Nano-Size Samples into Lab-Based ICPs and to a CFD-Derived (and Rapidly Prototyped Via 3D Printing) Smaller-Size Chamber for Portable Microplasmas
(IntechOpen, 2018-02-14)Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) is used extensively in many industries ranging from aerospace engineering to automobile design. We applied CFDs to simulate flows inside vaporization chambers designed for micro- or ... -
The Computational Thematic Analysis Toolkit
(ACM, 2022-01)As online communities have grown, Computational Social Science has rapidly developed new techniques to study them. However, these techniques require researchers to become experts in a wide variety of tools in addition to ... -
Computationally Efficient Field-Theoretic Simulations for Block Copolymer Melts
(American Chemical Society, 2019-11-12)Field-theoretic simulations (FTS) provide fluctuation corrections to self-consistent field theory (SCFT) by simulating its field-theoretic Hamiltonian rather than applying the saddle-point approximation. Although FTS work ... -
Computer Simulation of Window Condensation Potential
(American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air-Conditioning Engineers, 1998-12)Condensation on windows creates obscured view, can cause building damage, and may lead to mold growth and poor indoor air quality. The Canadian Standards Association (CSA) has developed new procedures to evaluate window ... -
Computing lower rank approximations of matrix polynomials
(Elsevier, 2020-05)Given an input matrix polynomial whose coefficients are floating point numbers, we consider the problem of finding the nearest matrix polynomial which has rank at most a specified value. This generalizes the problem of ... -
Concatenating Bipartite Graphs
(The Electronic Journal of Combinatorics, 2022)Let x, y E (0, 1], and let A, B, C be disjoint nonempty stable subsets of a graph G, where every vertex in A has at least x |B| neighbors in B, and every vertex in B has at least y|C| neighbors in C, and there are no edges ... -
Concentrations of docosahexaenoic acid are reduced in maternal liver, adipose, and heart in rats fed high-fat diets without docosahexaenoic acid throughout pregnancy
(Elsevier, 2018-11-01)Fetal accretion for DHA is high during late pregnancy due to the brain growth spurt. Prior evidence suggests that DHA is mobilized from maternal liver and adipose to meet fetal accretion and physiological requirements. ... -
