Observations of stratification and currents between June 2007 and March 2009 reveal a strong overflow between 400and 570-m depth from the Panay Strait into the Sulu Sea. The overflow water is derived from approximately 400 m deep in the South China Sea. Temporal mean velocity is greater than 0.75 m s at 50 m above the 570-m Panay Sill. Empirical orthogonal function analysis of a mooring time se...

Motivated by call center cosourcing problems, we consider a service network operated under an overflow mechanism. Calls are first routed to an in-house (or dedicated) service station that has a finite waiting room. If the waiting room is full, the call is overflowed to an outside provider (an overflow station) that might also be serving overflows from other stations. We establish approximations...

Isolated superfused rat atria release [H]acetylcholine when depolarized with 57 mM potassium. The depolarization-induced overflow of [H]acetylcholine is markedly inhibited by micromolar concentrations of epinephrine and norepinephrine. The a,-selective adrenergic agonist methoxamine also inhibits tritium overflow, but the «2-selective adrenergic agonist clonidine and the 0-adrenergic agonist is...

-Fuzzing is one of the most commonly used methods to detect software vulnerabilities which are one major cause of information security incidents. The basic idea of fuzzing is to discover software vulnerabilities by feeding unexpected input and monitoring abnormal behaviors. Although it has advantages of simple design and low error report, its efficiency is usually poor. In this paper we present...

In this report we deal with the time to buffer overflow in a finite-buffer queue with MMPP (Markov-modulated Poisson process) arrivals. The results include a closed-form formula for the transform of the distribution of the time to buffer overflow. The main benefit of this formula is that, using properties of the transform, we can easily compute the average overflow time and all the moments (var...

In this paper a study on the buffer overflow period in a finite-buffer queue is presented. A special attention is paid to the autocorrelation and batch arrivals, which are supposed to mimic the properties of real arrival processes. Using the batch Markovian arrival process, formulas for the duration of the first, subsequent and stationary overflow periods, as well as formulas for the distributi...

In this paper we study the rare event of overflow in a Markov fluid queue with finite buffer and many input sources. The probability of this rare event will be estimated by simulations. We present a highly efficient importance sampling procedure to speed up the simulations. The implemented change of meausure is suggested after a large deviations analysis of the overflow probability. This analys...

As a collaborative effort among government aerospace research laboratories, an advanced version of a widely used computational fluid dynamics code, OVERFLOW2.1z, was recently released. This latest version includes additions to model multiple flexible, rotating blades. This paper describes how the OVERFLOW code is applied to improve the accuracy of airload computations from the linear lifting li...
