The presence of lossy objects in reverberation chamber may significantly disturb the reverberant environment and affect the desired field statistics. In this...
With the move toward performance-based design, engineers have been looking to evacuation computer models to assess a building s life safety. Many times, the...

We demonstrate accurate measurements of the longitudinal refractive index profile of a fiber Bragg grating (FBG). We measure the impulse response of a grating...
We have developed a system for measuring the nonlinearity of optical fiber power meters at maximum power of 2 W. This system is based on the triplet...
Many integration projects today rely on shared semantic models based on standards represented using Extensible Mark up Language (XML) technologies. Shared...
Hierarchical production planning provides a formal bridge between long-term plans and short-term schedules. A hybrid, simulation-based, production planning...
We present limitations on the characterization and use of molecular absorption lines for wavelength calibration purposes. These limits assume a Doppler and...

A phase-locked, all-fiber supercontinuum source based on an ultrashort fiber ring laser with a tunable repetition frequency is presented. The supercontinuum...
The paper presents a comparable evaluation of isobutane (R600a), propane (R290), R134a, R22, R410A, and R32 in an optimized finned-tube evaporator, and analyzes...

GPS carrier-phase time transfer (GPSCP1T) offers high frequency stability at short averaging times, approaching a fractional frequency stability of 10-15 at...
In this paper, we examine the issues that arise in the experimental study of integrated cognitive systems. We review the reasons why such artifacts are dicult...
In this paper, we evaluate the performance of an iterative registration algorithm for position estimation of Unmanned Ground Vehicles (UGVs) operating in...
The U.S. Department of Transportation is actively involved in assessing the benefit of road departure warning systems (RDWS). A crash prevention boundary (CPB)...
This paper provides twenty rules of thumb for comparing algorithms having the same function, one of which is to be selected for use in an intelligent system...

Over the last several years we have made many improvements to NIST-F1 (a laser-cooled cesium fountain primary frequency standard) resulting in a reduction in...
Diagnosis of secondary pediatric pulmonary hypertension is often difficult because no single test permits complete evaluation. Improved understanding of the...
