This work describes two media converter prototypes for transmitting 10Mb/s & 100Mb/s Ethernet data over large core (1mm) Step-Index Polymer Optical Fiber (SI-POF). In terms of reach, both prototypes greatly outperform previously published results and current commercial media converters based…

In order to apply HAZUS methodology to a real seismic risk study outside USA, the
Oslo municipality was chosen as study region. The civil institutions were asked for neccesary information and we were provided with different ASCII and Arcview files…

AWA es una arquitectura general para representar información
lingüística producida por procesadores lingüísticos. Nuestro objetivo es definir un
esquema de representación coherente y flexible que sea la base del intercambio de información entre herramientas lingüísticas de cualquier tipo. Los análisis…

El presente artículo describe un sistema de adquisición de datos para un medidor de deformación. Se presenta el análisis del diseño de la circuitería y la programación, los resultados obtenidos y finalmente algunas conclusiones.

Vertical partitioning, in which attributes of a relation are
assigned to partitions, is aimed at improving database
performance. We extend previous research that is based on
a single relation to multi-relation database environment,
by including referential integrity constraints, access time

DATA QUALITY IS DEGRADED DURING THE PROCESS OF EXTRACTING AND MERGING DATA FROM MULTIPLE HETEROGENEOUS SOURCES. BESIDES, USERS HAVE NO INFORMATION REGARDING THE QUALITY OF THE ACCESSED DATA. THIS DOCUMENT PRESENTS THE METHODS UTILIZED TO ASSESS DATA QUALITY AT MULTIPLE…

This paper is an attempt to define how a
specific data structure might be used to
store, in a persistent manner, temporal
information during a computer simulation.
In particular, it considers the sort of
temporal information generated during a
discrete…

Similarity search is a fundamental operation for applications that deal with unstructured data sources. In this paper we propose a new pivot-based method for similarity search, called Sparse Spatial Selection (SSS).
The main characteristic of this method is that it…

The metric spaces model formalizes the similarity search concept in nontraditional databases. The goal is to build an index designed to save distance computations when answering similarity queries later. A large class of algorithms to build the index are based…

Se realizó el estudio termoanalítico del atenolol puro y de comprimidos comerciales utilizando técnicas de termogravimetría (TG) y calorimetría diferencial de barrido (DSC). El método no isotérmico fue empleado para determinar los datos cinéticos del proceso de descomposición. Para evaluar…
