The so-called diversity-multiplexing tradeoff characterizes the fundamental interaction between the robustness and capacity gains obtainable from multiple-input and
multiple-output (MIMO) systems in fading environments. This thesis develops practical schemes for approaching the optimal tradeoff in various delay and complexity
regimes.…

Engineering and technical graphics professionals have seen major changes in the content and the way we teach our students (Clark & Scales, 2000).  Today, professionals going into fields related to engineering/technical graphics require a broader knowledge of differing forms of…

El texto es una reflexión proveniente de una experiencia editorial sustentable que afirma que la creación y producción del pensamiento de una universidad es localizado, medible y cualificable por lo que se escribe, se publica y hace eficazmente visible. Lo…

ROI (Region of Interest) in an image or video signal contains important information and may be used for access control at various qualities using multiresolution analysis (MRA). This paper proposes quality access control method of compressed color image by modulating…

Spatial ability research has been approached from several psychological vantages since its beginnings in the late 1800s. This contribution attempts a summation of spatial ability research, beginning with a historical vignette and a major section on each psychological approach including…

Constraint-based modeling tools, as well as computer graphics tools in general, offer the user many choices in commands and techniques for creating graphics, which forces the user to have a strategy or plan as they proceed. The formulation of this…
