A local lightwave network can be constructed by employing two-way fibers to connect nodes in a passive-star physical topology, and the available optical bandwidth may be effectively accessed by the nodal transmitters and receivers at electronic rates using wavelength division multiplexing (WDM). The number of channels, ω, in a WDM network is limited by technology and is usually less than the number of nodes, N, in the network. We provide a general method using channel sharing to construct practical multi-hop networks under this limitation. Channel sharing may be achieved through time division multiplexing. The method is applied to a generalized shuffle-exchange-based multi-hop architecture, called GEMNET. Multicasting-the ability to transmit information from a single source node to multiple destination nodes-is becoming an important requirement in high-performance networks. Multicasting, if improperly implemented, can be bandwidth-abusive. Channel sharing is one approach toward efficient management of multicast traffic. We develop a general modeling procedure for the analysis of multicast (point-to-multipoint) traffic in shared-channel, multihop WDM networks. The analysis is comprehensive in that it considers all components of delay that packets in the network experience-namely, synchronization, queuing, transmission, and propagation. The results show that, in the presence of multicast traffic, WDM networks with ω相似文献
Early in 1983 the Indian Planning Commission appointed four Task Forces on Housing and Urban Development to review existing urban policies and to recommend appropriate action starting from the Seventh Plan (1985–1989). The Task Forces covered four areas of major concern: (1) urban planning, (2) urban finance, (3) urban organizations, and (4) urban shelter. They submitted their reports by the end of 1983, and taken together these constitute the most significant review of urban policy ever undertaken in India. 1 The Task Forces had distinguished urban experts, both officials and academics, as members, with a common Member-Secretary from the Planning Commission. The common theme in all four reports is a plea for a decentralized and equitable approach towards urban development in the country. 相似文献
While fairly complete and reliable incident data on childhood cancers are available from the registries in India, mortality and survival information is not. Information concerning the latter was obtained by the Bangalore cancer registry through active follow-up involving visits to homes of patients. Between 1982 and 1989, 617 cases of cancers in childhood were registered, giving an age-standardized incidence rate of 84.8 and 48.4 per million in male and female children, respectively. Active follow-up provided mortality/survival information in 532 or 86.2 percent of these cases. Overall, observed five-year survival was 36.8 percent (both genders combined) with a relative survival of 37.5 percent when childhood mortality in the general population was taken into account. The five-year relative survival was best for thyroid carcinoma (100 percent) followed by Hodgkin's disease (73 percent) and retinoblastoma (72.9 percent). Survival was comparatively low, being 9.9 percent in acute nonlymphatic leukemia and less than 20 percent in rhabdomyosarcoma and the category grouped as 'other malignant neoplasms.' Survival in Hodgkin's disease was influenced by clinical stage at presentation, but was not statistically significant possibly due to small numbers. 相似文献

For the Ti-rich, Ti-AI system, the- and-2 phase boundaries have been obtained through differential thermal analysis for alloy compositions ranging from 10.2 to 25.2 at% Al (6 to 16 wt% Al). It has been shown that in the above mentioned composition range, a metastable disordered-phase can be quenched in. This metastable then transforms to the ordered
2(DO)19 phase upon heating and/or isothermal ageing. It has also been observed that the kinetics of this ordering phenomenon is composition dependent. 相似文献
The stress-strain curves for pineapple leaf fibre have been analysed. Ultimate tensile strength (UTS), initial modulus (YM), average modulus (AM) and elongation of fibres have been calculated as functions of fibre diameter test length and test speed. UTS, YM, and elongation lie in the range of 362 to 748 MN m–2, 25 to 36 GN m–2, and 2.0 to 2.8%, respectively for fibres of diameters ranging from 45 to 205m. UTS Was found to decrease with increasing test lengths in the range 15 to 65 mm. Various mechanical parameters show marginal changes with change in speed of testing in the range of 1 to 50 mm min–1. The above results are explained on the basis of structural variables of the fibre. Scanning electron microscope studies of the fibres reveal that the failure of the fibres is mainly due to large defect content of the fibre bo1h along the fibre and through the cross-section, The crack is always initiated by the defective cells and further aggravated by the weak bonding material between the cells. 相似文献
Carbon nitride films have been deposited by dielectric barrier discharge with a CH4/N2 gas mixture at different conditions. Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, X-ray photo electron spectroscopy (XPS), Raman spectroscopy, Atomic force microscopy (AFM) and ellipsometry were used to systematically study chemical composition, bond structure and surface morphology of deposited films. Various bonds between carbon, nitrogen, hydrogen, and also oxygen were observed. 相似文献
The quantum-dot cellular automata (QCA) is considered to be one of the ground-breaking nanotechnologies developed over the last two decades. A layered T (LT) logic cell library is constructed herein, and the methodology is extended to generic adder and subtractor module designs. The two proposed algorithms lead to more efficient QCA layout designs for an n-bit ripple carry adder (RCA) and subtractor based on an effective clock zone assignment approach. The suggested one-, four-, and eight-bit RCAs and subtractors surpass most of their existing counterparts by offering lower effective area and cell complexity. A comparative analysis is presented regarding the complexity, irreversible power dissipation, and Costα of the proposed n-bit layouts from a cost estimation purview.
Fatigue growth data has been obtained for part-through thickness cracks in sheet specimens of polymethylmethacrylate subjected to cyclic tension. Statistical techniques are used to examine the usefulness of linear elastic fracture mechanics for correlating this part-through thickness crack growth data with throughthickness data published previously. 相似文献
