Event arrival curves [13] are an abstract way of characterizing event streams or arrival patterns as used in the context of real-time analysis of embedded systems. One may employ these abstract stream descriptions as part of analytic, assume/guarantee (A/G), real-time interfaces and thereby define the traffic a component is willing to accept, and what it guarantees to emit. This extended abstra...

Electrophoresis plays an important role in many applications, which, however, has so far been extensively studied in Newtonian fluids only. This work presents the first experimental investigation of particle electrophoresis in viscoelastic polyethylene oxide (PEO) solutions through a microchannel constriction under pure DC electric fields. An oscillatory particle motion is observed in the const...

Zerotree coding is an intelligent approach for quantization of Discrete Wavelet coefficients and thus achieving image compression. Embedded Zerotree Coding by Shapiro [3] is very effective in this regard, having the property that the bits in the bit stream are generated in order of importance, yielding a fully embedded code. In this paper we have proposed a Modified Embedded Zerotree (MEZT) sch...

p b c uantitative measurement of myocardial perfusion has been a goal of cardiovascular investigators for a number of years. Positron emission tomography (PET) has allowed assessment of myocardial blood flow in absolute value (milliliters per gram per minute) (1) and is accurate at dentifying both flow-limiting epicardial coronary artery isease (CAD) as well as microvascular abnormalities. uali...

Fashion products typically feature in compositions of a variety styles at different clothing parts. In order to distinguish images fashion products, we need extract both appearance (i.e., “how describe”) and localization “where look”) information, their interactions. To this end, propose biologically inspired framework for image-based product retrieval, which mimics the hypothesized two-stream ...
