IMUTUS (Interactive Music Tuition System) is a EU project that aims to develop a practising environment for the recorder, combining new technologies and new approaches for music learning. Automatic analysis and evaluation of student performances play a central role in the student-system interaction. The performance evaluation module identifies typical performance errors, and provides feedback t...

The efficient detection of charged biomolecules by biosensor with appropriate semiconducting nanomaterials and with optimum device geometry has caught tremendous research interest in the present decade. Here, the performance of various label-free electronic biosensors to detect bio-molecules is investigated by simulation technique. Silicon nanowire sensor, nanosphere sensor and double gate fiel...

in biaxially strained p-mosfet with si channel, formation of a parasitic parallel channel due to misalignment of energy bands degrades device performance by increasing off-state current. in this paper a new approach has been introduced to eliminate this parasitic channel by increasing the dopant concentration of virtual substrate up to . using simulation the impact of this method on the parasit...

introduction: clinical application of radiography in endodontic practice is affected by reproducibility in the orientation of the x-ray source, image receptor and object. the inability of dentists to locate intra oral films or sensors in appropriate positions in different cases can cause complications in the performance of endodontic therapy. commercially available film holder (endoray) and con...

Results from tests characterizing the performance and radiation hardness of the HS9008RH flash analog to digital convertor (FADC) are presented. These tests were performed primarily to evaluate the suitability of this device for use 1n the GEM Central Tracker at the SSC experiment . Basic performance characteristics and susceptibility of these characteristics to radiation were examined . Perfor...

Conventional computer systems have insufficient information about storage device performance characteristics. As a consequence, they utilize the available device resources inefficiently, which, in turn, results in poor application performance. This dissertation demonstrates that a few high-level, device-independent hints encapsulating unique storage device characteristics can achieve significan...
