Synthesis of silicon oxynitride from a polymeric precursor

Proton nuclear magnetic resonance (¹H NMR) spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy and gas chromatography (GC) have been used to study the products of ammonolysis of dichloromethylsilane in diethyl ether at 0 °C. Results indicate that the major products are trimethylcyclotrisilazane and tetramethylcyclotetrasilazane. Hydrolysis of the cyclosilazanes has also been qualitatively investigated. A simple and useful method for the identification of cyclosilazanes has been developed using the ¹H NMR technique.     

On real-time databases: concurrency control and scheduling

In addition to maintaining database consistency as in conventional databases, real-time database systems must also handle transactions with timing constraints. While transaction response time and throughput are usually used to measure a conventional database system, the percentage of transactions satisfying the deadlines or a time-critical value function is often used to evaluate a real-time database system. Scheduling real-time transactions is far more complex than traditional real-time scheduling in the sense that (1) worst case execution times are typically hard to estimate, since not only CPU but also I/O requirement is involved; and (2) certain aspects of concurrency control may not integrate well with real-time scheduling. In this paper, we first develop a taxonomy of the underlying design space of concurrency control including the various techniques for achieving serializability and improving performance. This taxonomy provides us with a foundation for addressing the real-time issues. We then consider the integration of concurrency control with real-time requirements. The implications of using run policies to better utilize real-time scheduling in a database environment are examined. Finally, as timing constraints may be more important than data consistency in certain hard realtime database applications, we also discuss several approaches that explore the nonserializable semantics of real-time transactions to meet the hard deadlines     

Call control and traffic transport for connection-oriented highspeed wireless personal communications over metropolitan area networks

A distributed circuit-switched approach for supporting the deployment of high speed wireless personal communication services in urban areas through the interconnection of base stations via metropolitan area networks (MANs) is proposed. Broadband MANs minimize traffic congestion by dynamic sharing of link capacity and by serving as distributed switches for partitioning call control functions. While the DQDB protocol readily supports distributed packet-switching over the IEEE 802.6 MAN, isochronous traffic such as voice and video is best supported by circuit-switched connections. The authors present an enhanced bi-state pre-arbitrated (PA) transport mechanism, and associated call control and handoff management techniques, which enable distributed circuit-switching over the MAN. These capabilities are not currently addressed in the 802.6 standards. The bi-state PA transport mechanism facilitates statistical multiplexing of variable rate isochronous traffic sources. The network capacity is constrained by the call setup delay performance, and is analyzed by simulations. Alternative signaling architectures, involving different placements of call control network elements, are evaluated. The effects of erasure nodes, and close bus versus open bus architectures, are considered. The overlap inter-MAN call setup procedure is proposed to reduce delays. Different call handoff procedures are formulated according to the type of handoff and the resulting change in call connectivity. Most handoffs are intra-MAN, requiring simple procedures with short delays

A mixed design approach for probabilistic structural durability

In this paper, a mixed approach for probabilistic structural durability design of mechanical systems is proposed. In this approach, a deterministic design optimization that considers structural crack initiation and crack propagation lives at critical points of the structural component as design constraints is performed first. After an optimal design is obtained, a reliability analysis is performed to ascertain if the deterministic optimal design is reliable. If the probability of the failure of the deterministic optimal design is found to be acceptable, a reliability-based design approach that employs a set of interactive design steps, such as trade-off analysis and what-if study, is used to obtain a near-optimal design that is reliable with an affordable computational cost. A 3-D tracked vehicle roadarm is employed to demonstrate the feasibility of the proposed approach.
