Performance evaluation of spanning systems
… a range of spanning systems, and evaluates their performance in a systematic way. The systems considered are beams, trusses, funicular structures, and cable-stayed systems. The first part of the thesis examines system selection by evaluating the limits to each structural system and the relative …

Performance Evaluation of Cognitive Radios
This thesis presents a performance evaluation system for cognitive radio. It considers performance as a complex, multi-dimensional function. Typically such a function would take some record of actions as an argument; however, a key contribution of this work is the addition of background information …

Performance Evaluation of Token Control Networks
We are concerned here with the evaluation of a network access method, known as token control scheme, commonly used in loop networks. An exact analytical and empirical model are developed for the cases where exhaustive service and non-exhaustive service disciplines are used, respectively. Accuracies …

Stochastic Seismic Performance Evaluation of Buildings
A method is presented for determining the probabilities that a structure will sustain various levels of damage or become unsafe due to earthquake loading during its lifetime. Uncertainties in the dynamic analysis associated with both the loading and the prediction of the structural response are …

Performance evaluation of database management systems
… the results of our experiments for testing the performance of the ABLE buffer management algorithm and the accuracy of the cost model.

Performance evaluation of vector machine architectures
… machines are well known for their high-peak performance, but the delivered performance varies greatly over different workloads and depends strongly on compiler optimizations. Recently it has been claimed that several horizontal superscalar architectures, e.g., VLIW and polycyclic …

Performance evaluation and enhancement of Dendro
… most of the execution-time. The single node performance and the overall performance of the package is dependent on the code-organization and class-hierarchy. We used the PETSC profiler to collect the performance statistics and instrument the code to know which part of the code takes most of …

Performance evaluation of a communication network
… work uses a simulation package to analyze the performance of a specific X.25 Value Added Communication Network (VAN), comprising a Network Administrator and a cluster of Network Concentrators (NCs). Detailed models of the network elements are developed, and system performance is analyzed in …

Performance evaluation of distributed mutual exclusion algorithms
… often not amenable to theoretical analysis for performance or even correctness. Experimental inquiries are therefore warranted. This thesis investigates seven well known distributed mutual exclusion algorithms in detail, and uses computer simulation to evaluate the performance and applicability …

Performance evaluation of mechanically attached roofing systems
… at the National Research Council Canada in the evaluation of Mechanically Attached Roofing Systems (MAS) for wind uplift design. Accomplishments are grouped in two tasks. Task 1, applied finite element methods to investigate whether an analytical method can be used to predict fastener loads …

Activity monitoring: continuous recognition and performance evaluation
… a generalised strategy for characterising the performance of activity recognition systems. We define a set of typical hand and tool activities in a woodwork assembly scenario. We evaluate two methods for detecting and recognising these activities using a combination of body-worn microphones and …

NEURAL BASIS OF PERFORMANCE EVALUATION IN BIRDS
… songbird zebra finch demonstrating RL applies to performance learning based on a flexible internal benchmark. Dopaminergic neurons in the midbrain were shown to report a performance prediction error. I expand the song system involved in song learning to neural circuits responsible for RL. I found …

Performance evaluation of deep learning on smartphones
… systems and (c) shortage of in-depth performance evaluation. Then, it provides a solution to each one of them by (a) providing a common interface derived from MLModelScope, referred to as mobile Predictor (mPredictor), (b) providing a benchmarking application and (c) using …

Performance Evaluation of Competing Data Structures in Pathfinding
… that using a priority queue will increase the performance of this algorithm. A number of priority queues have been used to implement A* and improve the performance of this algorithm. We propose to use a Lazy binary heap and evaluate its performance compared to other data structures. We expect …

Winglet Performance Evaluation through the Vortex Lattice Method
… cant angle offer the highest gains in terms of performance while taper ratio and sweep angle have a minor contribution. In general, all winglets provided an increase in aerodynamic efficiency, however, certain configurations result in wing root bending moments and weight increases that would …

Performance evaluation of communication systems with transmit diversity
… consists of four parts: the first three discuss performance evaluation of STBCs in various circumstances, the fourth outlines a novel differential scheme with full transmit diversity. In the first part, closed-form expressions for the bit error rate (BER) are derived for STBC based on Alamouti's …

TRANSIENT PERFORMANCE EVALUATION OF AUTOMOTIVE SECONDARY LOOP SYSTEMS
… in energy consumption and environmental performance can make a significant difference in fuel efficiency and comfort. The mandatory phase out of R134a as refrigerant in the European Union has set the stage for new systems and alternative refrigerants. While some of these refrigerants, …
