Vegetation mapping of national park units in the southeastern United States is being undertaken by the Center for Remote Sensing and Mapping Science at the University of Georgia. Because of the unique characteristics of the individual parks, including size, relief, number of photos and availability of ground control, different approaches are employed for converting vegetation polygons interpret...

The research aims to assess the geothermal potential and provide a better understanding of geology geophysics area. study utilizes various methods, including geological mapping, geochemical analysis, magnetic electromagnetic data gain insights into subsurface structures characteristics system. area can be divided three geomorphological units: Alluvial Plain Unit, Near Plains Isolated Hill Unit....

Coordinated control schemes, at fossil fuel power plants, drive units as a whole through a variable pressure operating policy. Ordinarily, the pressure control loop set-point is obtained from the unit load demand through a fixed nonlinear mapping that does not allow for process optimization under operating conditions different from the originals. This paper presents a procedure to optimally des...

When behavior is interpreted in a reliable manner (i.e., robustly across different situations and times) its explained meaning may be seen to possess hermeneutic consistency. In this essay I present an evaluation of the hermeneutic consistency that I propose may be present when the research tool known as the mapping sentence is used to create generic structural ontologies. I also claim that the...

Graphic processing units (GPUs) have been gaining popularity in general purpose and high performance computing. A GPU is made up of a number of streaming multiprocessors (SM), each of which consists of many processing cores. A large number of general-purpose applications have been mapped onto GPUs efficiently. Stream processing applications, however, exhibit properties such as unfavorable data ...

With their high computation throughput and outstanding performance-per-watt figures, the graphics processing units (GPU) are becoming increasingly important for high-performance computing (HPC) systems. Existing GPU execution environment restricts the GPU usage to local host node. This is suitable for standalone computer nodes, but becomes inefficient for HPC systems that consist of a large num...

Forward genetic analysis is the most broadly applicable approach to discern gene functions. However, for some organisms like the filamentous ascomycete Neurospora crassa, genetic mapping frequently represents a limiting step in forward genetic approaches. We describe an efficient method for genetic mapping in N. crassa that makes use of a modified bulked segregant analysis and PCR-based molecul...

Moderate resolution satellite imagery traditionally has been thought to be inadequate for mapping vegetation at the species level. This has made comprehensive mapping of regional distributions of sensitive species, such as whitebark pine, either impractical or extremely time consuming. We sought to determine whether using a combination of moderate resolution satellite imagery (Landsat Enhanced ...

Energy Management for multi-mode Software Defined Radio (SDR) systems remains a daunting challenge. In this paper, we focus on the issue of task allocation for multi-processor based systems with hybrid processing resources that can be reconfigured to support various operations. With the objective of minimizing energy, we present an analytical probabilistic model that considers static, dynamic, ...

Abstract The aim of the present study is to explore strategies in enumerating units three dimensional (3D) arrays. We analyse enumeration students grade 3 (ages 8 9) situations cubical and spherical representations 3D By exploring students’ these two situations, we find that difficulties arrays can be traced units-locating, with consequence applying double triple counting. Our results also indi...
