Byzantine Musical Theory (Harmonics)

Harmonics Theory

For most conventional analyses, the power system is essentially modeled as a linear system with passive elements excited by constantmagnitude and constantfrequency sinusoidal voltage sources. However, with the widespread proliferation of power electronics loads nowadays, significant amounts of harmonic currents are being injected into power systems. Harmonic currents not only disturb loads that...

Byzantine Fault Tolerance, from Theory to Reality

Since its introduction nearly 20 years ago, the Byzantine Generals Problem has been the subject of many papers having the scrutiny of the fault tolerance community. Numerous Byzantine tolerant algorithms and architectures have been proposed. However, this problem is not yet sufficiently understood by those who design, build, and maintain systems with high dependability requirements. Today, ther...

Musical acts and musical agents : theory, implementation and practice

Musical Agents are an emerging technology, designed to provide a range of new musical opportunities to human musicians and composers. Current systems in this area lack certain features which are necessary for a high quality musician; in particular, they lack the ability to structure their output in terms of a communicative dialogue, and reason about the responses of their partners. In order to ...
