In this paper, we present a novel method for constructing a super-optimal pairing with great efficiency, which we call the omega pairing. The computation of the omega pairing requires the simple final exponentiation and short loop length in Miller’s algorithm which leads to a significant improvement over the previously known techniques on certain pairing-friendly curves. Experimental results sh...

In this paper, we obtain the strong consistency and asymptotic distribution of the Theil-Sen estimator in simple linear regression models with arbitrary error distributions. We show that the Theil-Sen estimator is super-efficient when the error distribution is discontinuous and that its asymptotic distribution may or may not be normal when the error distribution is continuous. We give an exampl...

This paper studies the performance of dynamic bandwidth allocation (DBA) algorithms, with quality of service (QoS) support, appropriate to be used in a super Ethernet passive optical network (Super-EPON). By using an amplified double-fiber ring structure, the network architecture provides protection to the feeder section of the E-PONs. The behavior, in both service and protection states, of the...

Accurate multidimensional localization of isolated fluorescent emitters is a time consuming process in single-molecule based super-resolution microscopy. We demonstrate a functional method for real-time reconstruction with automatic feedback control, without compromising the localization accuracy. Compatible with high frame rates of EM-CCD cameras, it relies on a wavelet segmentation algorithm,...

Super-resolution microscopy allows optical imaging below the classical diffraction limit of light with currently up to 20× higher spatial resolution. However, the detection of multiple targets (multiplexing) is still hard to implement and time-consuming to conduct. Here, we report a straightforward sequential multiplexing approach based on the fast exchange of DNA probes which enables efficient...

Raschig Super-Pak is a novel development in structured packing product technology that is fundamentally different to the well known corrugated perforated or nonperforated, textured sheet metal structured packings. It comprises of a systematic sequence of smooth sinusoidal waves above and below the plain of the metal sheet. Total reflux distillation tests with Raschig Super-Pak 300 were conducte...

The Carrier Super-Positioning Satellite System is a promising telecommunication system because the efficiency of frequency usage is twice as much of that in existing satellite systems. Interference canceller used in the carrier superpositioning system is greatly effected by the nonlinear distortion of satellite TWTA. A scheme of the nonlinearity compensation for P-MP VSAT network has been propo...

Super resolution (SR) in computer vision is an important task. In this paper, we compared several common used features in image super resolution of example-based algorithms. To combine features, we develop a cascade framework to both solve the problem of deciding weights among features and to improve computation efficiency. Finally, we modify the framework to have an adaptive threshold such tha...

  Performance evaluation of universities is an important issue between researchers. Classic data envelopment analysis (DEA) models with deterministic data have been used by many authors to measure efficiency of universities in different countries. However, DEA with stochastic data are, rarely used to measure efficiency of universities. In this paper, input oriented model in stochastic data env...

A new collaborative design scheme of a super-high-speed permanent-magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) and its digital controller is presented, which provides a low-cost but highly efficient motor system with guaranteed stability and performance. Since the systematic design of the PMSM can ensure its stability over the full operating speed range, a simple and reliable open-loop controller can be des...
