This volume presents the state of the art concerning quality and interestingness measures for data mining. The book summarizes recent developments and presents original research on this topic. The chapters include surveys, comparative studies of EXISTING measures, proposals of new measures, simulations, and case studies. Both theoretical and applied chapters are included. Papers for this book were selected and reviewed for correctness and completeness by an international review committee.
High volume USB 2.0 devices will be designed using ASIC technology with embedded USB 2.0 support.
For full-speed USB devices the operating frequency was low enough to allow data recovery to be handled
in a vendors VHDL code, with the ASIC vendor providing only a simple level translator to meet the USB
signaling requirements. Today s gate arrays operate comfortably between 30 and 60 MHz. With USB 2.0
signaling running at hundreds of MHz, the EXISTING design methodology must change.

UML for C# This paper describes the primary constructs in the C# language and how they are modeled in WinA&D using the UML notation. The model can be used to generate C# code. WinTranslator scans source code to generate a UML model for an EXISTING project.
A few years ago I became interested in first person shooter games and in particular how the world levels are created and rendered in real time. At the same time I found myself in between jobs and so I embarked on an effort to learn about 3D rendering with the goal of creating my own 3D rendering engine. Since I am a developer and not an artist I didn’t have the skills to create my own models, levels, and textures. So I decided to attempt to write a rendering engine that would render EXISTING game levels. I mainly used information and articles I found on the web about Quake 2, Half Life, WAD and BSP files. In particular I found the Michael Abrash articles that he wrote for Dr. Dobbs magazine while working at Id to be very illuminating.
PixelFusion.dsp
This file (the project file) contains information at the project level and
is used to build a single project or subproject. Other users can share the
project (.dsp) file, but they should export the makefiles locally.
PixelFusion.h
This is the main header file for the application. It includes other
project specific headers (including Resource.h) and declares the
CPixelFusionApp application class.
PixelFusion.cpp
This is the main application source file that contains the application
class CPixelFusionApp.
PixelFusion.rc
This is a listing of all of the Microsoft Windows resources that the
program uses. It includes the icons, bitmaps, and cursors that are stored
in the RES subdirectory. This file can be directly edited in Microsoft
Visual C++.
PixelFusion.clw
This file contains information used by ClassWizard to edit EXISTING
classes or add new classes. ClassWizard also uses this file to store
information needed to create and edit message maps and dialog data
maps and to create prototype member functions.
Collection of key-value pairs.
TDictionary represents a generic collection of key-value pairs.
This class provides a mapping from a collection of keys to a collection of values. When you create a TDictionary object, you can specify various combinations of initial capacity, equality operation, and initial content.
You can add a key that is associated with a corresponding value with the Add or AddOrSetValue methods. You can remove entries with Remove or Clear, which removes all key-value pairs. Adding or removing a key-value pair and looking up a key are efficient, close to O(1), because keys are hashed. A key must not be nil (though a value may be nil) and there must be an equality comparison operation for keys.
You can test for the presence or keys and values with the TryGetValue, ContainsKey and ContainsValue methods.
The Items property lists all Count dictionary entries. You can also set and get values by indexing the Items property. Setting the value this way overwrites any EXISTING value.
The class TObjectDictionary inherits from TDictionary and provides an automatic mechanism for freeing objects removed from dictionary entries.
We consider the problem of target localization by a
network of passive sensors. When an unknown target emits an
acoustic or a radio signal, its position can be localized with multiple
sensors using the time difference of arrival (TDOA) information.
In this paper, we consider the maximum likelihood formulation
of this target localization problem and provide efficient convex
relaxations for this nonconvex optimization problem.We also propose
a formulation for robust target localization in the presence of
sensor location errors. Two Cramer-Rao bounds are derived corresponding
to situations with and without sensor node location errors.
Simulation results confirm the efficiency and superior performance
of the convex relaxation approach as compared to the
EXISTING least squares based approach when large sensor node location
errors are present.
A major societal challenge for the decades to come will be the delivery of effective
medical services while at the same time curbing the growing cost of healthcare.
It is expected that new concepts-particularly electronically assisted healthcare will
provide an answer. This will include new devices, new medical services as well
as networking. On the device side, impressive innovation has been made possible
by micro- and nanoelectronics or CMOS Integrated Circuits. Even higher accuracy
and smaller form factor combined with reduced cost and increased convenience
of use are enabled by incorporation of CMOS IC design in the realization of biomedical
systems. The compact hearing aid devices and current pacemakers are
good examples of how CMOS ICs bring about these new functionalities and services
in the medical field. Apart from these EXISTING applications, many researchers
are trying to develop new bio-medical solutions such as Artificial Retina, Deep
Brain Stimulation, and Wearable Healthcare Systems. These are possible by combining
the recent advances of bio-medical technology with low power CMOS IC
technology.
The contemporary view of the Smart City is very much static and infrastructure-
centric, focusing on installation and subsequent management of Edge devices and
analytics of data provided by these devices. While this still allows a more efficient
management of the city’s infrastructure, optimizations and savings in different do-
mains, the EXISTING architectures are currently designed as single-purpose, vertically
siloed solutions. This hinders active involvement of a variety of stakeholders (e.g.,
citizens and businesses) who naturally form part of the city’s ecosystem and have an
inherent interest in jointly coordinating and influencing city-level activities.
