MIMO Encoder and Decoder Design for Signal Estimation

We study the joint design of optimal linear MIMO encoders and decoders for filtering and transmission of a vector- valued signal over parallel Gaussian channels subject to a real- time constraint. The objective is to minimize the sum of the estimation error variances at the receiving end. The design problem is nonconvex, but it is shown that a global optimum can be found by solving a related two-s

An alternative optimization technique for JavaScript engines

Thread Level Speculation at function level has been suggested as a method to automatically (or semi-automatically) extract parallelism from sequential programs. While there have been multiple implementations in both hardware and software, little work has been done in the context of dynamic programming languages such as JavaScript. In this paper we evaluate the effects of a simple Thread Level Spec

Teaching Software Development using Extreme Programming

Software development is a complex area and extensive practice and reflection is required in order to obtain a good understanding of the different tasks involved in going from idea to deliverable software. To help in providing this understanding, we have developed a team programming course based on extreme programming and a coaching course. We discuss how these courses affect the curriculum, the de

Electromagnetic scattering by layered cylinders --- low frequency reduction of RCS

In this paper we present two different ways of reducing the radar cross section (RCS) of thin metallic wires at low frequencies. This reduction is achieved by adding a dielectric coating on the wire. The entire cylindrical structure is finally protected by a thin exterior non-magnetic dielectric layer (eagle skin). The contribution to the RCS has either an electric or an magnetic origin. To reduce

Students’ and Teachers’ Experience of Globalization/Internationalization ‘of’ Higher Education - Emphasizing a pedagogical stance in an internationalized teaching and learning context

The conclusions in this paper are drawn from the results of four empirical studies. It has been important to take an empirical approach in the investigation, concerned with internationalization of higher education, since even though plentiful of studies over the last decades have been concerned with internationalization in/of higher education, it has not been from the perspectives from the teacher
