Assessing Drought Flows For Yield Estimation
… presents a synthesis of methods of drought flow analysis and yield estimation. The yield depends on both the magnitude of the deficit and its temporal distribution. A new Markov chain analysis for assessing frequencies of annual flows is proposed. The Markov chain results compare very well with …

Characterization of palmer drought index as a precursor for drought mitigation
… three broad schemes i) time series modeling, ii) Markov chain analysis, and iii) dynamical systems approach are put forward for computing the drought parameters necessary for understanding the scope of the drought. These parameters include drought occurrence probabilities, duration of various …

Testing and Fault-Tolerance Aspects of High-Density VLSI Memory
… cannot be integrated at the site of the memory. Markov chain analysis has been made to estimate the detection quality and fault coverage for test length of different sizes.

Performance analysis of broadband multimedia wireless communication networks
… in an uplink beam, are modeled as a 2-state Markov modulated Poisson Process (MMPP). Using the counting process of real-time traffic, the real-time packet loss probability has been evaluated at the uplink. Based on the equation governing the non-real-time packet queueing process at the epochs …

Communication and time distortion
… in a packet-switched network. By using Markov chain analysis, we prove a lower bound on the maximal channel coding rate achievable at a given blocklength and error probability. Finally, we propose an easy-to-deploy censorship-resistant infrastructure, called FreeWave. FreeWave modulates …

Distributed analysis of Markov chains
… of techniques for correctness and performance analysis of concurrent systems. The systems in question are state transition systems from which Markov chains can be derived. Both phases of the analysis pipeline are considered: state space generation from a state transition model to form the …

Interpretation of coarsening upwards hemicycles in the Upper Paleozoic rocks of South-central West Virginia
… <p>The cyclic pattern (determined by Markov chain analysis as well as by visual inspection) typically consists of alternating fining upwards and coarsening upwards hemicycles a pair of which constitute a cyclothem. The cyclothems in Conemaugh seem to be less variable than in the …

Range-wide assessment of land use and cover change near Indiana bat hibernacula
… stochastic projection model that combines Markov chain analysis, multi-criteria evaluation, and cellular automata. Drivers of the model included biophysical and socioeconomic variables. Characterization and modeling were performed at two spatial extents and at several management groupings …

Complex Urban Road Networks: Static Structures and Dynamic Processes
… their topological properties. Our multi-scale analysis in- cludes macro-, meso-, and micro-scale perspectives, deriving insights into both common and unexpected patterns in these networks. At the macro-scale, we examine the global properties of these networks. We find correlations between …

Modeling land-cover change in the Amazon using historical pathways of land cover change and Markov chains. A case study of Rondõnia, Brazil
… on a sub-sample of 70 farms. A panel data analysis of the estimated empirical probabilities was conducted to test for subject and time effects using a Fixed Group Effects Model (FGEM), specifically the Least Square Dummy Variable (LSDV1) fixed effects technique. Finally, the two predictive …

Channel parameter tuning in a hybrid Wi-Fi-Dynamic Spectrum Access Wireless Mesh Network
… experienced on a link is high. Our statistical analysis shows that SINR effectively differentiates the performance of different channels and that SINR is well correlated with throughput and is thus a good predictor of end-user experience, despite varying conditions. We also identify and analyse …

Enabling Communication and Networking Technologies for Smart Grid
… the requirements of smart grid applications, an analysis on the use of the current state of the art 3G CDMA2000 for smart grid applications indicates that its usage results in high percentage of control overhead, high latency and high power consumption for data transfer. As a part of this …
