3. Tactile sensing: why?
What happens if the humans have all sense modalities other than the sense of touch? The importance of touch/tactile sensing is implicit in this question which can be answered by performing a simple experiment of exploring the objects after putting hands on[r]

In the figure there exists a high-level base class called the graphic context. In a typical application a number of subclasses might be derived from it. In this case the graphics context specifies the line width, gray scale, and scale for its subsidiary objects. A deriv[r]

This is known as Amdahl's Law. The ratio shows that even with an infinite amount of computing power an algorithm with a sequential component can only achieve the speedup in Eq. 2.50. If an algorithm is 50% sequential then the maximum speedup achievable is 2. While this may be a strong argu[r]

The message passing algorithm still works under certain circumstances even when the hypercube has nodes that are faulty. This is discussed in the next section.

This section presents the analysis of the class of hypercubes for which the message passing[r]

A full crossbar topology provides connections between any two processors. This is the most complex connection topology and requires (n (n - 1) / 2 connections. A full crossba[r]

can be solved by assuming a solution of the form R ( n ) = λ n . This yields
If the equation has two distinct roots, λ 1 ,λ 2 , then the solution is of the form
where the constants, C 1 , C 2 , are chosen to enforce Eq. 2.19. If the roots, however, are not distinct then an alternate[r]

where t k is the number of time steps required for solution of a problem of size k .
 
Example 2.1 Time Complexity
The calculation of the time complexity for addition is illustrated in Example 2.1. A comparison of the order of several classical functions is shown in T[r]

1.2.1.1   IEEE   32 ­ Bit   Standard 
The IEEE 32-bit standard is often referred to as single precision format. It consists of a 23-bit fraction or mantissa, f , an 8-bit biased exponent, e , and a sign bit, s . Results are normalized after each operation. This means that the most sig[r]

Phosphatase and tension homolog deleted on chromosome 10, PTEN, is a tumor suppressor gene
that is responsible for controlling tumorigenesis in various organs (Li and Sun 1997, Steck et al. 1997, Li et al. 1997, Ali, Schriml a[r]

Now the question is in the hands of a real DNS server! For the rest of this discussion, we will call it “your DNS server,” in the sense of “the DNS server that is doing work for you”; but, of course, the server itself probably belongs to someone else, like your employer or your ISP o[r]

2.6.3.5   Message   Passing   in   Efficient   Hypercubes  
The code to simulate message passing in an efficient hypercube is shown in Code List 2.8. The output of the program is shown in Code List 2.9. The path for communicating from 0 to 63 is given as 0-1-3-7-15-31-63 as s[r]

As mentioned in Section 3.3, virtual clustering in MetaMorph is a dynamic mechanism for organiza- tional reconfiguration of the manufacturing system during run-time. An organization based on virtual clusters of entities can continually be reconfigured in response to changing tas[r]

The second step now consists of descending down along the path marked by the least key and eliminating it by successively replacing it by either an empty hole at the bottom, or by the item at the alternative branch at[r]

After physical and logical machine groups are derived (for example, via group-technology approaches), the necessary control structures are created and configured using control components cloned from template libraries by a DMH. The machine groups, their associated and<[r]

Similarly
However, it is useful to know the representation in terms of the weighted bits. For instance, -5, can be generated from the representation of -1 by eliminating the contribution of 4 in -1:
