The water's edge: a point of termination, a point of continuation, a point of generation
The design of a mixed-use market, three axes of influence was studied on a site at the end of King Street in Alexandria, VA. A semicircular form was developed that terminated the main circulation axis down King Street, continued the free form edge of the Potomac, and acted as a visual beginning to …

Interference aware wireless networks with point to point beamforming
Recent dramatic changes in the end-user devices and applications demand the idea of peer-peer packet transmissions without the help of base stations or wire-line backbone networks. This concept of distributed communication systems has quite a few areas of interest, whether it is gaming, emergency …

Point Ninety-Nine
My thesis, Point Ninety-Nine is an orchestral work that contemplates the beauty of ‘missing the mark’. It is about being almost there point ninety-nine, not one hundred percent. We live in an environment that demands perfection. How can we learn to embrace the imperfections and celebrate the …

The Innermost Point
… musical experience as "when the innermost point in us stands outside." The Innermost Point develops two themes: one rhythmically stable but melodically lacking, and the other melodious but rhythmically puzzling. Over the course of the piece each theme attains an identity in its own …

Point sample rendering
… are represented as a dense set of surface point samples which contain colour, depth and normal information. These point samples are obtained by sampling orthographic views on an equilateral triangle lattice. They are rendered directly and independently without any knowledge of surface …

Extraction methods for multidirectional driving point accelerance and transfer point accelerance matrices
… determine the multidirectional driving point and transfer accelerance matrices is a difficult task that has remained unsolved for 30 years. These matrices relate both linear and rotational degrees of freedom in three dimensions. The direct measurement of dynamic moments and rotational …

Millimeter wave communications : from point-to-point links to agile network connections
Millimeter wave (mmWave) technologies promise to revolutionize wireless networks by enabling multi-gigabit data rates. However, they suffer from high attenuation, and hence have to use highly directional antennas to focus their power on the receiver. Existing radios have to scan the space to find …

Calibration of dynamic traffic assignment models with point-to-point traffic surveillance
Accurate calibration of demand and supply simulators within a Dynamic Traffic Assignment (DTA) system is critical for the provision of consistent travel information and efficient traffic management. Emerging traffic surveillance devices such as Automatic Vehicle Identification (AVI) technology …

Point by point gain calibration of the Dark Matter Time Projection Chamber
Since 1975 a growing body of astronomical evidence has given increasing credibility to the existence of dark matter. Once a simple proposition by Fritz Zwicky to explain discrepancies in the virial motion of galaxy clusters, dark matter can now explain galactic rotation curves, the hierarchical …

Accelerating point cloud cleaning
… Secondly, design constraints in generalised point cloud editing software result in inefficient abstraction of layers that may extend a task duration due to memory pressure. Finally, existing semi-automated segmentation tools have difficulty targeting the diverse set of segmentation targets in …
