|
 | The U.S. Navy employs several models of maritime combat to provide analytical rigor to force structure and weapon system procurement policies. All of the models currently used are high resolution and deterministic, providing very detailed results but without any measurement of variance or any statistical manner of evaluating risk. This thesis provides the initial groundwork for a low resolution stochastic maritime combat model that may provide an initial evaluation and ... |

|
| The Detector and Extractor of Fileprints (DEF) algorithm is a technique for representing data sequences in the form of fileprints. It combines a periodogram-based process with the Adjustable Bandwidth Concept (ABC) detector algorithm to generate these outputs. DEF at this time has two primary applications. The first application protects the payload of a file from unauthorized tampering or distribution. The second identifies an arbitrary segment of data by comparing results ... |

| Military physicians are expected to complete a routine outpatient appointment within fifteen minutes. However, data collection delays today compromise the quality of physician-patient interaction. Specifically, administrative and medical data collection tends to be time-consuming and resource-intensive. And, collection of patient information from sources other than the patient tends to be delay-prone. This project is concerned with the development of a wireless Medical Digital Assistant (MDA) with visualization, decision support, and ... |

| By providing direct data transfer between storage and client, network-attached storage devices have the potential to improve scalability (by removing the server as a bottleneck) and performance (through network striping and shorter data paths). Realizing the technology's full potential requires careful consideration across a wide range of file system, networking and security issues. To address these issues, this paper presents two new network- attached storage architectures. (1) Networked SCSI disks ... |
