This paper revisits the ordered statistics decoding (OSD). It provides a comprehensive analysis of OSD algorithm by characterizing statistical properties, evolution and distribution Hamming distance weighted from codeword estimates to received sequence in reprocessing stages algorithm. We prove that distributions can be characterized as mixture models capturing error probability code weight enu...

This correspondence represents two new soft decision decoding algorithms that promise to reduce complexity and at the same time achieve the maximum likelihood decoding (MLD) performance. The first method is an Adaptive Two-Stage Maximum Likelihood Decoder [1] that first estimates a minimum sufficient set and performs decoding within the smaller set to reduce complexity and at the same time achi...

Orthotropic steel deck (OSD) structures are widely used in the bridge system of rail transit bridges. Reducing amplitude stress intensity factor is most effective method to improve fatigue life OSD structures. In order explore crack propagation structure and factors affecting structural factor, linear elastic fracture mechanics Paris’ law for theoretical support this paper. Firstly, a cable-sta...

of scaling aggregate bandwidth by spreading partial functions over a number of disk processors. Object-level storage abstraction, introduced by NASD, is recognized to be the third alternative in addition to block-level storage abstraction typically seen in SAN storage environments and file-level storage abstraction in NAS storage environments. Content-Addressable Storage is another example whic...

The distribution of IT activities around the world as a result of globalization has driven the growth of global IT outsourcing or IT offshoring. Software projects are increasingly sent from high-cost countries to low-cost offshore countries such as India, Russia etc. Because of the inherent complexities and uncertainties of software projects, they continue to experience poor performance problem...

Types of code changes in an object oriented library are described. A formal model for capturing and inferencing on the changes to identify aaected classes is described. The model consists of three types of diagrams: the object relation diagram (ORD), the block branch diagram (BBD), and the object state diagram (OSD). An ORD describes the inheritance, aggregation, and association relationships b...

Mixing is a common process in food industry, and in particular it is interesting to develop optimal mixers in order maximize fluid mixing and minimize energy consumption by reducing the viscous dissipation effects. Although many studies and results had been presented in literature for both batch and static mixers (Rauline et al. 2000 and Mutsakis et al. 1986 for a review) the lack of a develope...

We study the performance of medium-length quantum LDPC (QLDPC) codes in depolarizing channel. Only degenerate with maximal stabilizer weight much smaller than their minimum distance are considered. It is shown that help OSD-like post-processing standard belief propagation (BP) decoder on many QLDPC can be improved by several orders magnitude. Using this new BP-OSD we known classes including hyp...

The Ohmic spin diode (OSD) is a recent concept in spintronics, which based on half-metallic magnets and spin-gapless semiconductors (SGSs). Quaternary Heusler compounds offer unique platform to realize the OSD for room temperature applications as these materials possess very high Curie temperatures well semiconducting behavior within same family. Using state-of-the-art first-principles calculat...
