DiffServ overlay multicast for videoconferencing
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2005)
In this dissertation a framework for implementing videoconference in a DiffServ network (DiffServ Overlay Multicast) is proposed. DiffServ Overlay Multicast uses an overlay multicast algorithm for calculating the multicast ...
A system for access and administration of fault-tolerant web services
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2005)
Web Services, a recent development in web technology, enables programs (services) on the World Wide Web (WWW) to communicate with each other. A program (web service) available on the WWW has to be robust to serve the vast ...
An application of machine learning techniques to interactive, constraint-based search
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2005)
Search engine users frequently place additional constraints on search results that are not included in the user's original query. To respond to these additional constraints, search engine designers frequently add an "advanced ...
Experimental study of localization in sensor networks and design of adaptive localization algorithms
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2005)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT AUTHOR'S REQUEST.] We design an experimental framework to evaluate localization methods for sensor networks. We use this framework to evaluate three existing localization ...
Real-time speaker-independent large vocabulary continuous speech recoginition
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2005)
In this dissertation, a real-time decoding engine for speaker-independent large vocabulary continuous speech recognition (LVCSR) is presented. Three indispensable and correlated performance measurements -- accuracy, speed, ...
Automating database curation with workflow technology
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2005)
Building scientific databases is extremely difficult and expensive. Costs could be reduced if the experts who curate the deposited data, are provided with data that are reviewed by other experts at lower levels for accuracy ...
Transport, network, and data link layer protocol designs to improve geo-stationary Earth orbit satellite data set transmission performance
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2005)
Geo-stationary earth orbit (CEO) satellites are wireless transmission media that provide near-earth Internet and Intranet data communication, but are limited to low Megabits per second transmission rates and small messages. ...
Language modeling for automatic speech recognition in telehealth
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2005)
Standard statistic n-gram language models play a critical and indispensable role in automatic speech recognition (ASR) applications. Though helpful to ASR, it suffers from a practical problem when lacking sufficient in-domain ...
Analysis of the enzymatic network
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2005)
A biochemical network is very large, complex system with very diverse components. In order to study the behavior of networks, the first step is to study their architecture. Studying network architecture raises many basic ...
Design of learning objects to support constructivist learning environments
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2005)
Using Constructivism to guide the design of learning objects, we develop a generic structure that classifies knowledge into different types on different levels. With a simple generic structure of learning object, learners ...
