The performance of deep space telemetry signals that employ a residual carrier modulation technique is compared in the presence and absence of a subcarrier. When the subcarrier is present, the performance for the resulting pulse-coded modulation/phase-shift keyed/ph~-modulat ed (PCM/PSK/PM) scheme is e valuated for both sine wave and square wave subcarriers and non-return-to zero (NRZ) data. Wh...

Centrosomes comprise a pair of centrioles surrounded by a matrix of pericentriolar material (PCM). In vertebrate cells, Pericentrin plays an important part in mitotic PCM assembly, but the Drosophila Pericentrin-like protein (PLP) appears to have a more minor role in mitotic fly cells. Here we investigate the function of PLP during the rapid mitotic cycles of the earlyDrosophila embryo. Unexpec...

Phase change memory (PCM) as a newly developed storage medium has many attractive properties such as non-volatility, byte addressability, high density and low energy consumption. Thus, PCM can be used to build non-volatile main memory databases. However, PCM’s long write latency and high write energy bring challenges to PCM-based memory systems. In this paper, we propose an improvement over the...

Nowadays, many applications use spatial data for instance-location information, so storing spatial data is important. We suggest using R -Tree over PCM. Our objective is to design a PCM-sensitive R -Tree that can store spatial data as well as improve the endurance problem. Initially, we examine how R -Tree causes endurance problems in PCM, and we then optimize it for PCM. We propose doubling th...

The demands of larger memory capacity in high-performance computing systems have motivated the researchers to explore alternatives of DRAM (dynamic random access memory). Since PCM (phase change memory) provides high-density, good scalability and non-volatile data storage, it has received significant amount of attention in recent years. A crucial bottleneck in wide-spread adoption of PCM, howev...

In this paper, we examine the performance of fuzzy clustering algorithms as the major technique in pattern recognition. Both possibilistic and probabilistic approaches are explored. While the Possibilistic C-Means (PCM) has been shown to be advantageous over Fuzzy C-Means (FCM) in noisy environments, it has been reported that the PCM has an undesirable tendency to produce coincident clusters. R...

Thermal Energy Storage (TES) materials, such as Phase Change Materials (PCMs) are proven to enhance the energy efficiency in many fields, automotive and building sectors, which correspond most intensive ones. Shape-stabilized PCM cascade procedures overcome important barriers when PCMs applied since need be encapsulated for their technical use: leakage of liquid phase, corrosion, low heat trans...
