FAS: introducing a service for avoiding faults in composite services
(Springer Science+Business Media, 2012)In service-oriented architectures, composite services depend on a set of partner services to perform the required tasks. These partner services may become unavailable due to system and/or network faults, leading to an ... -
Utilizing clone detection for domain analysis of simulation systems
(IEEE, 2012)This paper presents a case study on utilizing a clone detection technique for deriving commonalities among four different industrial simulation software systems. We have examined cloning both within each system and across ... -
Heat transfer enhancement with actuation of magnetic nanoparticles suspended in a base fluid
(AIP, 2012)In this study, we have experimentally demonstrated that heat transfer can be substantially increased by actuating magnetic nanoparticles inside a nanofluid. In order to materialize this, we have utilized a miniature heat ... -
Self-discovery of motor primitives and learning grasp affordances
(IEEE, 2012)Human infants practice their initial, seemingly random arm movements for transforming them into voluntary reaching and grasping actions. With the developing perceptual abilities, infants further explore their environment ... -
Optimal relay placement in cooperative free-space optical communication systems
(IEEE, 2012)Relay-assisted free-space optical (FSO) transmission exploits the fact that atmospheric turbulence fading variance is distance dependent and yields significant performance gains by taking advantage of the resulting shorter ... -
Silver patterning using an atomic force microscope tip and laser-induced chemical deposition from liquids
(AIP Publishing, 2012)This article presents a new direct patterning technique in which laser photoreduction of silver from a liquid is controlled by a scanning atomic force microscope tip. Contrary to expectations, the tip suppresses, rather ... -
Alto sunuculu, eş görevli ağlarda dosya paylaşımı
(IEEE, 2012)In current Internet, the most significant and the growing promotion rate of the network resources usage is due to the Peer to Peer(P2P) applications. These studies show us that the main traffic type, that Internet Service ... -
QCD coupling constants and VDM
(AIP, 2012)QCD sum rules for coupling constants of vector mesons with baryons are constructed.The corresponding QCD sum rules for electric charges and magnetic moments are also derived and with the use of vector-meson-dominance model ... -
A survey of software testing in the cloud
(IEEE, 2012)Cloud computing has emerged as a new computing paradigm that impacts several different research fields, including software testing. Testing cloud applications has its own peculiarities that demand for novel testing methods ... -
Theoretical determination of K(1)(1270,1400) mixing angle in QCD
(IOP Publishing, 2012)In quark model, the strange axial vector mesons K1(1270) and K1(1400) are defined as the mixtures of orbital angular momentum states K1A and K1B. In this work, by using the orthogonality of the mass eigenstates, we have ... -
Maximum likelihood estimate of parameters of Nakagami-m distribution
(IEEE, 2012)Nakagami-m distribution is well known for its ability to model a number of probability density functions, be it symmetric or asymmetric. Many Maximum Likelihood parameter estimation techniques for this distribution have ... -
Data stream analytics and mining in the cloud
(IEEE, 2012)Due to prevalent use of sensors and network monitoring tools, big volumes of data or “big data” today traverse the enterprise data processing pipelines in a streaming fashion. While some companies prefer to deploy their ... -
Sualtı akustik haberleşmesi için SNR tabanlı röle seçimi kullanan işbirlikli OFDM sistemleri
(IEEE, 2012)In this paper, we investigate a multi-carrier multi-relay cooperative system with amplify-and-forward relaying over frequency-selective underwater acoustic channels. Relay selection rules rely on the maximization of ... -
A small footprint hybrid statistical/unit selection text-to-speech synthesis system for agglutinative languages
(IEEE, 2012)Despite its success, unit selection based text-to-speech synthesis (TTS) has has some disadvantages such as sudden discontinuities in speech that distract the listeners. The HMM-based TTS (HTS) approach has been increasingly ... -
Analysis of speaker similarity in the statistical speech synthesis systems using a hybrid approach
(IEEE, 2012)Statistical speech synthesis (SSS) approach has become one of the most popular and successful methods in the speech synthesis field. Smooth speech transitions, without the spurious errors that are observed in unit selection ... -
An approach for detecting inconsistencies between behavioral models of the software architecture and the code
(IEEE, 2012)In practice, inconsistencies between architectural documentation and the code might arise due to improper implementation of the architecture or the separate, uncontrolled evolution of the code. Several approaches have been ... -
A small footprint hybrid statistical and unit selection text-to-speech synthesis system for Turkish
(Springer Science+Business Media, 2012)Unit selection based text-to-speech synthesis (TTS) can generate high quality speech. However, The HMM-based text-to-speech (HTS) has also advantages such as the lack of spurious errors that are observed in the unit selection ... -
Hierarchical reliability assessment models for novel LED-based recessed down lighting systems
(Springer Science+Business Media, 2012)This chapter describes development of hierarchical reliability assessment models for novel LED-based lighting systems. Much of the chapter is excerpted from references (Arik et al., IEEE Trans Compon Packag Tech 33:668–679, ... -
Comparison of synthetic and steady air jets for impingement heat transfer over vertical surfaces
(IEEE, 2012)Natural convection air cooling is the method of choice for many low-power electronics applications due to cost, availability, and reliability considerations. This method is not only limited to low-power applications, but ... -
Biomaterials applications of chemical mechanical polishing
(IEEE, 2012)Chemical Mechanical Polishing (CMP) is used in semiconductor industry to enable planarization of the interlayer dielectrics and metals. In this study, CMP is used as a polishing technique to modify the surface roughness ...
