Intrusion Detection with Mobile Agents

June 1, 2002
Author(s)
Wayne Jansen
Effective intrusion detection capability is an elusive goal, not solved easily or with a single mechanism. However, mobile software agents go a long way toward realizing the ideal behavior desired in an Intrusion Detection System (IDS). This paper is an

A User's Guide for FAST: Engineering Tools for Estimating Fire Growth and Smoke Transport

January 3, 2000
Author(s)
Richard D. Peacock, Paul A. Reneke, Walter W. Jones, Richard W. Bukowski, Glenn P. Forney
FAST is a collection of fire modeling tools which uses the underlying fire model CFAST and adds the routines of FIREFORM to provide engineering calculations of fire phenomena in compartmented structures. This manual provides documentation and examples for

Remembering Paul Garabedian

June 15, 2010
Author(s)
Geoffrey B. McFadden
Paul R. Garabedian, a leader in the field of computational science, passed away on May 13th, 2010, at his home in Manhattan at the age of 82 after a long battle with cancer. During the course of sixty years of research on the faculties at Stanford and New

Virtual Cement and Concrete

September 1, 2009
Author(s)
Jeffrey W. Bullard, Chiara C. Ferraris, Edward Garboczi, Nicos Martys, Paul E. Stutzman, Judith E. Terrill
Design and optimization of cement or concrete mixes typically is accomplished by intensive trial-and-error experimentation, primarily because the design space has many parameters and because interactions between these parameters are incompletely understood

On the Fast Track: New Usability Testing Methods for Web Sites

October 2, 1997
Author(s)
Jean C. Scholtz, L L. Downey
The dynamic nature of the Web poses problems for usability evaluations. Development times are rapid, changes to Web sites occur frequently, often without reevaluating the usability of the entire site, and new advances in Web developments change user

Exergy Analysis of Heat Pumps

January 1, 1987
Author(s)
T. L. Tsaros, R. A. Gaggioli, Piotr A. Domanski
The HPSIM computer program for modeling heat pumps (Domanski and Didion 1983) has been augmented to include exergy analysis. Exergy transports between the components, to the loads, and to the environment are evaluated. The exergy consumptions in each

Verification and Validation Process of a Fire Model

June 18, 2012
Author(s)
Kevin B. McGrattan, Simo A. Hostikka
Fire simulation tools are used frequently in the fire safety assessment of nuclear and other industrial installations. They are also used in the context of probabilistic fire risk assessment as deterministic models providing the relation between the random

Tight Bounds on the Convergence of Noisy Random Circuits to the Uniform Distribution

December 16, 2022
Author(s)
Michael Gullans, Abhinav Deshpande, Bill Fefferman, Alexey Gorshkov, Pradeep Niroula, Oles Shtanko
We study the properties of output distributions of noisy, random circuits. We obtain upper and lower bounds on the expected distance of the output distribution from the uniform distribution. These bounds are tight with respect to the dependence on circuit
