In this talk we present a model of knowledge assessment based on architecture-specific metrics and present a method of knowledge sharing called Direct Knowledge eXchange (DKX). Although embryonic from a knowledge management perspective, the notion of DKX between homogeneous knowledge engines and knowledge metric assessment represents a small step to examining how distribution of knowledge can l...

The second-order Arnoldi (SOAR) procedure is an algorithm for computing an orthonormal basis of the second-order Krylov subspace. It has found applications in solving quadratic eigenvalue problems and model order reduction of second-order dynamical systems among others. Unfortunately, the SOAR procedure can be numerically unstable. The two-level orthogonal Arnoldi (TOAR) procedure has been prop...

This issue of A Closer Look...may seem like somewhat of a departure for our office. Traditionally, we use the publication to spotlight progams or services that are immediately identifiable as student affairs-related activities. At first glance, academic advising just doesn’t seem to fit the mold. However, the Division of Student Affairs is closely involved with academic advising at UNCG. The Sp...

Industry standard circuit simulators use mathematical techniques that do not always guarantee a successful simulation outcome, resulting in a significant loss of productivity as the circuit designer attempts to diagnose the source of the failure. This paper addresses the problem of improving the diagnosis of circuit simulation non-convergence through computer automation of the diagnostic proces...

The paper discusses a new algorithm to assign orthologous genes between a pair of genomes using both sequence similarity and evolutionary events. Many ortholog assignment algorithms have already been developed, but most of them are based on DNA/protein sequence similarity or use a homology search algorithm. The paper divides the problem in two phases: the signed reversal distance with duplicate...

This paper describes a partial reimplementation of Doug Smith's CYPRESS algorithm design system within the Soar problem-solving architecture. The system, CYPRESS-SOAR, reproduces most of CYPRESS' behavior in the synthesis of three divide-and-conquer sorting algorithms from formal specifications. CYPRESS-Soar is based on heuristic search of problem spaces, and uses search to compensate for missi...
