WiseMAC is a medium access control protocol designed for
the WiseNETTMwireless sensor network. It is based on
CSMA and uses the preamble sampling technique to minimize
the power consumed when listening to an idle medium.
Like many of my colleagues in this industry, I learned Windows programming from Charles Petzold s Programming Windows—a classic programming text that is the bible to an entire generation of Windows programmers. When I set out to become an MFC programmer in 1994, I went shopping for an MFC equivalen ...
The running time of quicksort can be improved in practice by taking advantage of the fast
running time of insertion sort when its input is “nearly” sorted. When quicksort is called on a
subarray with fewer than k elements, let it simply return without sorting the subarray. After the
top-level call ...
Behavioral models are used in games and computer graphics for
realistic simulation of massive crowds. In this paper, we present a
GPU based implementation of Reynolds [1987] algorithm for simulating
flocks of birds and propose an extension to consider environment
self occlusion. We performed several ...
As a general rule, PhD students and their supervisors tend to focus
primarily, or even exclusively, on the content of the research that will
go into the doctoral thesis. Other issues are often taken for granted:
how to organize your work, give a presentation, work in a team, cope
with your superviso ...
These codes require an ASCII input file called input.dat of the following form:
Lower Limit on x Upper Limit on x Final Time
Pressure for x<0 when t=0 Density for x<0 when t=0 Speed for x<0 when t=0
Pressure for x>0 when t=0 Density for x>0 when t=0 Speed for x>0 when t=0
These codes ...
as a message came into prominence with the publication in 1948 of an influential paper by Claude Shannon, "A Mathematical Theory of Communication." This paper provides the foundations of information theory and endows the word information not only with a technical meaning but also a measure. If the s ...
A design about 8051 (running at 12MHz) based system with 3 7-Seg displays and two buttons to implement the following functions.
1. When press the + button, the display C = A+B.
2. When press the button, the display C = A - B.
“A” and “B” are 8-bit inputs when “C” is 9-bit out ...
Collection of key-value pairs.
TDictionary represents a generic collection of key-value pairs.
This class provides a mapping from a collection of keys to a collection of values. When you create a TDictionary object, you can specify various combinations of initial capacity, equality ope ...
