For wireless channels, interference mitigation techniques are typically applied at the packet transmission level. In this paper, we present an adaptive-QOS framework that also responds to impairments over multiple time scales that are present at the ow/session level. Our framework is based on three di erent mechanisms that operate over distinct adaptation time scales. At the packet transmission...

We grew SrTiO3 on SrTiO3(001) by pulsed laser deposition, using x-ray scattering to monitor the growth in real time. The time-resolved small-angle scattering exhibits a well-defined length scale associated with the spacing between unit-cell high surface features. This length scale imposes a discrete spectrum of Fourier components and rate constants upon the diffusion equation solution, evident ...

The brushless dc motor (BLDCM) with multi-time scales is an electric machine. By coupled BLDCM, it is discovered that chaotic routes of the uncoupled systems influence synchronous result of coupled identical and nonidentical chaotic systems. Another multi-time scales form, Hindmarsh–Rose (HR) neurons, when the chaotic parameter is selected only in the range of the period-doubling route to chaos...

In this study, nonlinear vibration of axially moving strings in thermal environment is investigated. The vibration haracteristics of the system such as natural frequencies, time domain response and stability states are studied at different temperatures. The velocity of the axial movement is assumed to be constant with minor harmonic variations. It is presumed that the system and the environment...

Modelling the cardiovascular system (CVS) presents a challenging and important problem. The CVS is a complex dynamical system that is vital to the function of the human organism, and it reflects numerous different states of health and disease. Its complexity lies in a combination of oscillatory modes spanning a wide frequency scale that can synchronize for short episodes of time, coupled with a...

In this paper we present an algorithm for audio scene segmentation. An audio scene is a semantically consistent sound segment that is characterized by a few dominant sources of sound. A scene change occurs when a majority of the sources present in the data change. Our segmentation framework has three parts: (a) A definition of an audio scene (b) multiple feature models that characterize the dom...

Physical systems often involve several processes that are evolving on di erent time scales. The resulting equations have a speci c structure which can be exploited to great e ect and the kind of results that can be obtained, at least with a certain goal in mind, are the subject of this paper. On account of the physical motivation for the di erent scales, there are many areas in which applicatio...
