Speech deception and voice "hijacking" techniques are now sophisticated beyond the ability of any single detection methodology. Deceptive speech detection requires an array of analysis tools to collectively provide an acceptable probability of detection. An effective Voice Authentication Monitoring System is envisioned as a "work bench" tool set to detect, analyze and assess speech deception. Deve ...

THE EXISTING METHODOLOGY OF DESIGN AND FABRICATION OF SEMICONDUCTOR MANUFACTURING EQUIPMENT IS AN EXPENSIVE AND TIME CONSUMING PROCESS. TO KEEP PACE WITH THE RAPIDLY ADVANCING SEMICONDUCTOR INDUSTRY, IT IS NECESSARY TO DEVELOP A COMPUTER BASED ENVIRONMENT TO QUICKLY SIMULATE THE FEATURES OF THE MANUFACTURING EQUIPMENT BEFORE IT IS TURNED INTO A PHYSICAL PROTOTYPE. APART FROM ACHIEVING CONSIDERABLE ...

PRESENT TURBOJET ENGINE CONTROL SYSTEMS, WHICH ARE COMPRISED OF: CONTROLLER, FUEL METERING DEVICE, SENSORS, CONNECTORS, AND HARNESSES ARE THE SINGLE MOST EXPENSIVE SUBSYSTEM ON EXPENDABLE TURBOJET ENGINES. THE SIZE AND COST OF EXPENDABLE TURBOJET ENGINES HAS STEADILY DECREASED. HOWEVER, THE ENGINE CONTROL SYSTEM COST HAS RE MAINED RELATIVELY CONSTANT. ELECTRONIC CONCEPTS PROPOSES TO DEMONSTRATE TH ...

THIS PROPOSED PHASE I RESEARCH PROJECT PROVIDES A UNIQUE OPPORTUNITY TO REVIEW REGIONAL SEISMIC DISCRIMINANTS, DEVELOPA STATISTICAL METHOD FOR IDENTIFYING EVENTS, DEVELOP QUALITY CONTROL PROCEDURES FOR ALLOWING FOR EFFECTS OF NOISE AND REGIONAL PROPAGATION EFFECTS ON DISCRIMINANTS, AND TO STATISTICALLY ANALYZE THE DISCRIMINATION CAPABILITY OF THESE REGIONAL DISCRIMINANTS. THE LARGE DATABASE OFREGI ...

SMART MATERIALS OFFER EXCITING OPPORTUNITIES FOR THE IMPLEMENTATION OF ADAPTIVE STRUCTURES. SMART MATERIALS ARE A NEW CLASS OF MATERIALS, WHICH CONTAIN THEIR OWN INTERNAL SENSOR, ACTUATOR AND SIGNAL PROCESSING, ELEMENTS. THESE STRUCTURALLY AND FUNCTIONALLY INTEGRATED ELEMENTS GIVE THE MATERIAL THE CAPABILITY TO DETECT CHANGES IN ITS ENVIROMENT, CHANGE ITS STRUCTURAL, ELECTROMAGNETIC AND/OR CHEMICA ...

The predominant concern of evolving high-speed network architectures is fault tolerance. High-speed networks will expereince a variety of faults, such as link or node failures, excessive buffer overflow due to faulty flow and congestion control mechanisms, and partial failure of the switching fabric. The main goal of this research is to increase the availability of essential network services witho ...
