During the last decades, understanding aquatic pollution and improvement in water management have developed. One of the most effective achievements concerning water use is surely the establishment of biofilm reactors in common wastew...

This paper presents our latest results in synthesizing high quality trumpet performances. Our approach identifies the continuous control over the sound as a fundamental element in the synthesis process. We developed our synthesis model as a cooperative system of two sub-models, continuous control parameters providing the interface between them. The two sub-parts are the instrument model, which ...

AbsIrad As a crucial technology for seamless communication, soft handover has been investigated In literature since the emergence of CDMA. In this paper, triggered by the asymmetric features of 3G Internet and multimedia services, the downlink performances of four typical soft handover algorithms: distance-based, IS-95A. UTRA soft handover algorithms and SSDT are evaluated and compared under va...
