LIN6 is a new protocol that supports mobility for IPv6. It supports two distinct hand-off mechanisms to accommodate various security needs. In this paper, we evaluate a prototype implementation of LIN6 and analyze its performance during hand-off. Our results show that LIN6 can complete a hand-off in about 50 milliseconds. We feel that this level of performance is adequate even for voice applica...

In this paper we study the advantages and disadvantages of incorporating error correction schemes inside the TCP transport layer protocol. We show that under some circumstances, this scheme achieves better performance than that of retransmission schemes, and, in particular, the TCP-SACK scheme. We analyze the performance of both schemes and discuss the circumstances under which the error correc...

Abstracf-A study of the efficiency, error-correcting capabilities, and limitations of graph theoretic block codes is presented. Augmentation of graph theoretic codes and their generation is discussed. It is shown that such augmentation techniques can substantially increase the level of efficiency of these codes and potentially could increase it to the level of the best available codes. Furtherm...

In the present paper, it is studied the price relations and how price is transmitted between the producer level and the consumer level for lamb meat. Data used in the research include consumer price index and producer price index for lamb meat covering monthly periods of 91 months since March 2001 through September 2008. Johansen's and Juselius's cointegration method and Granger causality test ...

• The code is error-correcting, i.e., even if a code word is changed to some extent (by error or maliciously), we can still decode it. This implies that the code words should be as different from each other as possible, since if, for example, there are two code words that are different in only one letter, then if this letter is changed, the decoding is wrong, thus the code is not even single-er...

In this paper a new design scheme has been report.ed for parallel implementation of CA based %EC/DbED and DbEC/DbED code that is analogous to the conventional Reed-Solomon code.

This paper considers nonlinear dynamics of quotes issued by Nasdaq dealers. We study the top two ECN’s (Island and Instinet) and the three most active market makers for a sample of twenty stocks traded at Nasdaq. We develop a model that extends the standard linear vector error correction model for price discovery in three different ways. First, quote adjustments are set relative to the inside q...

This paper uses cointegration and error-correction models to analyze the causal relationship between export growth and economic growth in eight Asian developing countries using annual data from 1960 to 1997. While conventional wisdom suggests that export growth contribute positively to economic growth, this study also provides strong evidence supporting the export-led growth hypothesis. The emp...

Automatic error correction systems for English as a Second Language(ESL) speakers often rely on the use of a confusion set to limit the choices of possible correction candidates. Typically, the confusion sets are either manually constructed or extracted from a corpus of manually corrected ESL writings. Both options require the involvement of English teachers. This paper proposes a method to aut...
