Designing a Generalized Sonifcation Environment

Structured Document Databases

This is a summary of research activities so far performed in the Structured Document Database project. The project involves building a database environment for storing, querying and updating struc-tured documents-in particular, documents encoded in SGML (Standard Generalized Markup Language) ISO86]. The project has three major components-(i) designing a query language for querying structured do...

Generalized Parallel Join Algorithms and Designing Cost Models

Applications for large-scale data analysis use such techniques as parallel DBMS, MapReduce (MR) paradigm, and columnar storage. In this paper we focus in a MapReduce environment. The aim of this work is to compare the different join algorithms and designing cost models for further use in the query optimizer.

A Generalized Direct Approach for Designing Fuzzy Logic Controllers in Matlab/simulink Gui Environment

A straightforward approach for designing fuzzy logic based controllers in Matlab/Simulink environment is presented in this paper. The approach focuses on the fuzzy rule base construction using the time varying values of control error (e) and its change (∆e) mapped on e-∆e space. In order to show the generalized model simplicity of the proposed approach, a fuzzy logic controller (FLC) is designe...

Designing a Happy Learning Environment in Schools and Investigating Its Relationship with Stress and Mental Health

Environment as a Pattern for Design. Case study: Shandiz valley in Mashhad - Iran

The aim of this paper is to review the created problems and failure of environmental design patterns in designing process by designers. Not respectfully addressing the context of environment during designing process have resulted in the loss quality of environment, damage to both nature and essence of environment as manifested in the case study area. Methodology of the research was based on the...
