Cater: An Opportunistic Medium Access Control Protocol for Wireless Local Area Networks
… the information signal, implying a fixed process gain at the receiver. When the channel degrades, IEEE 802.11 offers only retransmissions at the MAC layer to combat a corrupt medium. However, CATER allows communicating stations to reconfigure their transceivers to use a longer PN code …

Collision study for the one-way IVDS channel
… and the receivers' jamming margin, capture, and process gain qualities are compared as to which system best optimizes a one-way channel. Motivation for the collision study stems from researching a one-way communication link for the Interactive Video Data Service ( IVDS ) project currently being …

Mathematical Reasoning and the Inductive Process: An Examination of The Law of Quadratic Reciprocity
… in order to study the critical reasoning process that drives discovery in mathematics. We begin with an examination of the first proof of this law given by Gauss. We then describe Gauss’ fourth proof of this law based on Gauss sums, followed by a look at Eisenstein’s geometric …

A REGION-SENSITIVE FUZZY LOGIC CONTROLLER FOR pH
One of the key process parameters that require constant monitoring and tight control is the pH of a given medium. pH processes, in general, are characterized by severe nonlinearity and extreme sensitivity as well as time varying gain. This has given rise to a host of control strategies. In recent …

Project management and the film industry value chain: the impact of cognitive biases on value creation and learning
… the role cognition plays in the leadership process gain both a creative and a competitive advantage. By testing this concept through the lens of the value chain model, we can begin to develop a cognitive methodology that inspires practical tools capable of navigating uncertainty and …

Nonlinear adaptation of established linear and predictive control laws through safe reinforcement learning
… unlocking untapped potential in the operation of processes in the chemical- and minerals processing industries. RL relies on trial-and-error design of opaque function approximator architectures and the selection of hyperparameters. Furthermore, challenges in establishing RL agent training that is …

Transcriptional Regulation of Azole Antifungal Resistance in Candida albicans
… by a zinc cluster transcription factor Tac1p. A gain-of-function mutation in the gene encoding this transcription factor is responsible for the overexpression of CDR1 and CDR2. To identify the Tac1p regulon, we analyzed four matched sets of clinical isolates with gain-of-function mutations in …
