Monitoring Power Dissipation for Fault Detection

In this paper, we suggest that the dynamic power dissipation of acircuit can be used for fault detection. Even those faults which do notaffect static power dissipation can be detected by monitoring dynamic powerdissipation. We discuss how stuck-at, stuck-open, and redundant faults maybe detected by monitoring dynamic power dissipation. In many cases, theFourier spectra of the supply currents in the good and faulty circuits willalso be very different. Further, specific tests can be applied so as toimprove fault coverage. Power monitoring is verified using simulation, andalso experimentally, for example circuits.     

Engset multi‐rate state‐dependent loss models with QoS guarantee

We consider a single link loss system of quasi‐random input, described by the Engset multirate loss model (EnMLM). Blocked calls may once reattempt to be connected to the system requiring less bandwidth; then the system is described by the single retry model for finite sources (f‐SRM). The EnMLM and the f‐SRM are extended with the single threshold finite source model (f‐STM), where calls may attempt to be connected to the system with less bandwidth requirements, according to the link occupancy, before blocking occurs. We focus on CBP equalization in the EnMLM, f‐SRM and f‐STM, under the bandwidth reservation (BR) policy. For this analysis, we apply two approximate methods, the Roberts' method and the method of reverse transition rates (RTR), which lead to a recursive CBP calculation. We evaluate the accuracy of the above models under the BR policy by comparing the analytical with simulation CBP results, based on the relative approximation errors (RAE). The results are highly satisfactory because they show that the proposed models (formulas) lead to small RAE. Copyright © 2005 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Spectral approximations of the Stokes problem by divergence-free functions

The method of Moser, Moin, and Leonard (1983) for the approximation of the three-dimensional Navier-Stokes equations using divergence-free subspaces is revisited and analyzed. It is shown that the computed velocity field converges to the physical one with spectral accuracy. Moreover, a method for recovering the pressure field is proposed. This method is stable and provides a pressure that converges to the physical one with spectral accuracy.

Increasing testing productivity and software quality: A comparison of software testing methodologies within NASA

Pressure to compress the development life cycle and reduce the duration and resources committed to testing lead to experimentation in testing at the NASA Goddard Space Flight Centerís Software Engineering Laboratory. This study investigates the trend to reduce developer testing and increasingly rely upon inspection techniques and independent functional testing to shorten the development life cycle, improve testing productivity, and improve software quality.An approach is developed to conduct this comparison. In particular, the problem faced by software researchers, having a comprehensive characterization of software projects so similar types may be identified for comparative studies, is addressed using expert opinion.

Energy and spectral dynamics in decaying compressible turbulence

The statistical properties of decaying compressible turbulence are investigated by direct numerical simulations of flow in a periodic cube. Starting with fully developed turbulence for various microscale Reynolds numbersR , rms Mach numbersM, and small- and large-scale compressive ratiosr _CS andr _CL , we find that the kinetic energy exhibits an exponential decay in time. Interactions between the compressive and rotational components of kinetic energy are weaker than self-interactions of the respective components. The energy spectrum of rotational component obeys the same Kolmogorov similarity law as for incompressible turbulence and forced compressible turbulence. The form of the energy spectrum of the compressive component, on the other hand, depends strongly onM. As the turbulence decays freely,R andM decrease in time butr _CS andr _CL tend to some universal values.
