Many books on polarization give tables of Mueller matrices. The coherency matrix has been found useful for interpretetion the matrix. Here we a table matrices M, C, and factors F different components systems. is not given some complicated nondeterministic cases. In many cases, though, very simple form. particular, expressions general case an homogeneous elliptic diattenuating retarder. Differen...

In this article, the authors studied the developmental trajectories of three teachers as they integrated GroupScribbles (GS) technology in their classroom lessons over a semester period of about 5 months. Coherency diagrams were used to capture the complex interplay of a teacher’s knowledge (K), goals (G) and beliefs (B) in leveraging technology effectively in the classroom. The degree of coher...

Coherency cube” and fault detection technologies have evolved rapidly in recent years as important tools for seismic interpretation. The following paper, developed as a joint project between investigators at Memorial University and the University of Calgary, compares several of the fault detection methods for data from Hibernia field. The results, which are outlined in detail in the Memorial Un...

Some parallel applications do not require a precise imitation of the behaviour of the physically shared memory programming model. Consequently, certain parallel machine architectures have elected to emphasise different required coherency properties because of possible efficiency gains. This has led to various definitions of models of store coherency. These definitions have not been amenable t o...

Ladislav Kristoufek Abstract We focus on power-law coherency as an alternative approach towards studying power-law crosscorrelations between simultaneously recorded time series. To be able to study empirical data, we introduce three estimators of the power-law coherency parameter Hρ based on popular techniques usually utilized for studying power-law cross-correlations – detrended cross-correlat...

Most recovery schemes that have been proposed for Distributed Shared Memory (DSM) systems require unnecessarily high checkpointing frequency and checkpoint traffic, which are sensitive to the frequency of interprocess communication in the applications. For message-passing systems, low overhead error recovery based on coordinated checkpointing allows the frequency of checkpointing to be determin...

Object dataflow is a popular approach often used for parallel rendering. The scene is statically distributed among processors and objects are fetched and cached only on demand. Most previous object dataflow methods were implemented on shared memory architectures, and exploit image/object space coherency to reduce cache misses. In this paper, we propose an efficient object dataflow incremental r...
