A hybrid reasoning mechanism for effective sensor selection for tasks
(Elsevier, 2013-02)
In this paper, we present Ontological Logic Programming (OLP), a novel approach that combines logic programming with ontological reasoning. OLP enables the use of ontological terms (i.e., individuals, classes and properties) ...
Outage performance of MIMO free-space optical systems in gamma-gamma fading channels
(IEEE, 2013)
In this paper, we consider a MIMO Free-Space Optical (FSO) communication system over gamma-gamma turbulence channels and derive a closed-form analytical expression for the outage probability taking into account the effects ...
Search for a Higgs boson decaying into a b-quark pair and produced in association with b quarks in proton-proton collisions at 7 TeV
(Elsevier, 2013-05-24)
A search for a neutral Higgs boson decaying to a pair of b quarks, and produced in association with at least one additional b quark, is presented. Multijet final states with three jets identified as originating from b ...
Measurement of the W+W- cross section in pp collisions at and limits on anomalous WW gamma and WWZ couplings
(Springer Science+Business Media, 2013-10)
A measurement of W+W- production in pp collisions at is presented. The data were collected with the CMS detector at the LHC, and correspond to an integrated luminosity of 4.92 +/- 0.11 fb(-1). The W+W- candidates consist ...
Search for a non-standard-model Higgs boson decaying to a pair of new light bosons in four-muon final states
(Elsevier, 2013-11-04)
Results are reported from a search for non-standard-model Higgs boson decays to pairs of new light bosons, each of which decays into the μ+μ− final state. The new bosons may be produced either promptly or via a decay chain. ...
Jet and underlying event properties as a function of charged-particle multiplicity in proton–proton collisions at TeX
(Springer Science+Business Media, 2013-12)
Characteristics of multi-particle production in proton-proton collisions at root s = 7 TeV are studied as a function of the charged-particle multiplicity, N (ch). The produced particles are separated into two classes: those ...
A continuous approximation approach for assessment routing in disaster relief
(Elsevier, 2013-04)
In this paper, we focus on the assessment routing problem which routes teams to different communities to assess damage and relief needs following a disaster. To address time-sensitivity, the routing problem is modeled with ...
A run-time verification framework for smart grid applications implemented on simulation frameworks
(IEEE, 2013)
Smart grid applications are implemented and tested with simulation frameworks as the developers usually do not have access to large sensor networks to be used as a test bed. The developers are forced to map the implementation ...
A novel statistical model for turbulence-induced fading in free-space optical systems
(IEEE, 2013)
In this paper, we propose a new probability distribution function which accurately describes turbulence-induced fading under a wide range of turbulence conditions. The proposed model, termed Double GG distribution, is based ...
PHY layer performance evaluation of the IEEE 802.15.7 visible light communication standard
(IEEE, 2013)
The IEEE 802.15.7 standard defines a PHY layer and medium access control (MAC) layer for visible light communication and promises data rates sufficient to support audio and video multimedia services. In this paper, we first ...
