The Need for Realism when Simulating Network Congestion

April 2, 2016
Author(s)
Kevin L. Mills, Christopher E. Dabrowski
Many researchers use simulation to investigate network congestion, often finding congestion spread can be modeled as percolation, spreading slowly under increasing load until a critical point, then spreading quickly through the network. The researchers

Validation and Verification of Automated Road Vehicles

April 2, 2016
Author(s)
Edward Griffor, Agaram Venkatesh, Frank Barickman, Felix Felix Fahrenkrog
Ubiquitous, commercial deployment of automated road vehicles is desirable in order to realize their potential benefits such as crash avoidance, congestion mitigation, reduced environment impact, reduced driver stress, and increased driver productivity. A

Genetic circuit design automation

April 1, 2016
Author(s)
Alec Nielsen, Bryan Der, Jonghyeon Shin, Prashant Vaidyanathan, Douglas Densmore, Vanya M. Paralanov, Elizabeth Strychalski, David J. Ross, Christopher Voigt
Computation can be performed in living cells using DNA-encoded circuits that process sensory information and control biological functions. Their construction is time-intensive, requiring manual part assembly and balancing of regulator expression. We

Measuring Time and Comparing Clocks

April 1, 2016
Author(s)
Judah Levine
I will discuss methods of comparing and synchronizing clocks and the procedure of characterizing their performance in terms of the two-sample Allan variance. I will describe methods that are used when the device under test and the reference device are in

PEPR: Pipeline for Evaluating Prokaryotic References

April 1, 2016
Author(s)
Nathanael D. Olson, Justin M. Zook, Daniel V. Samarov, Scott A. Jackson, Marc L. Salit
The rapid adoption of microbial whole genome sequencing in public health, clinical testing, and forensic labo-ratories requires the use of validated and well characterized measurement processes. Reference materials thatare well characterized and

Stiff modes in spinvalve simulations with OOMMF

April 1, 2016
Author(s)
Spyridon Mitropoulos, Vassilis Tsiantos, Kyriakos Ovaliadis, Dimitris Kechrakos, Michael J. Donahue
Micromagnetic simulations are an important tool for the investigation of magnetic materials. Micromagnetic software uses various techniques to solve differential equations, partial or ordinary, involved in the dynamic simulations. Euler, Runge-Kutta, Adams

Mid-infrared molecular spectroscopy in the quantum noise limit

March 31, 2016
Author(s)
David A. Long, Adam J. Fleisher, Qingnan Liu, Joseph T. Hodges
A cavity ring-down spectrometer was used to reach the quantum noise limit in the mid-infrared spectral region. Quantum noise was observed not only in the individual ring-down decay events but also in the corresponding ensemble statistics with a magnitude

NIST Cryptographic Standards and Guidelines Development Process

March 31, 2016
Author(s)
Andrew R. Regenscheid
This document describes the principles, processes and procedures that drive cryptographic standards and guidelines development efforts at the National Institute of Standards and Technology. This document reflects public comments received on two earlier
