With the DS record [5] the concept of key-signing and zone-signing keys has been introduced. Key-signing keys are the keys that sign the keyset only. In general, key-signing keys are the keys that are pointed to by DS records and are the first keys to be used when following a chain of trust into the zone. The key-signing keys only sign the KEY RRset at the apex of a zone, zonesigning keys sign ...

As telescience systems become more and more complex, autonomous, and opaque to their operators it becomes increasingly difficult to determine whether the total system is performing as it shouM. This paper addresses some of the complex and interrelated human performance measurement issues that are related to total system validation. The assumption is made that human interaction with the automate...

This work studies the performance of a cooperative network which consists of two channel-coded sources, multiple relays, and one destination. Due to spectral efficiency constraint, we assume only one time slot is dedicated for relaying. Conventional network coding based cooperation (NCC) selects the best relay which uses network coding to serve two sources simultaneously. The performance in ter...

Piecewise-linear methods accomplish the registration by dividing the images in corresponding triangular patches, which are individually mapped through affine transformations. For this process to be successful, every pair of corresponding patches must lie on projections of a 3D plane surface; otherwise, the registration may generate undesirable artifacts, such as broken lines, which diminish the...

In numerical simulations of disordered electronic systems, one of the most common approaches is to diagonalize random Hamiltonian matrices and to study the eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of a single electron in the presence of a random potential. In this paper, we describe an effort to implement a matrix diagonalization routine for real symmetric dense matrices on massively parallel SIMD comput...

This paper describes a method for the parallel solution of tr/ans_lar sets of equations, appropriate when there are many rlght-hand sides. By preproceuing, the method can reduce the number of parsl/el steps required to solve Zz = b compared to parallel forward or backsolve. AppUcations are to iterative solvers with tzian_d&r preconditioners, to structural sns]ysds, or to power system= applicati...

The extent to which risk profiles or correlates of conduct disorder (CD) and oppositional defiant disorder (ODD) symptoms overlap among youth continues to be debated. Cross-sectional data from a large, representative community sample (N = 4,705) of African-American, Latino, and White fifth graders were used to examine overlap in correlates of CD and ODD symptoms. About 49 % of the children were...

INTRODUCTION Correlates of physical activity (PA) have not been explored in adolescents with Down syndrome (DS). Understanding correlates of PA could provide information to develop strategies to increase levels of PA in this target population. OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to identify potential correlates of PA in adolescents with DS. METHOD Information about levels of PA and their po...
