Iraq's Real Holy War
(‘2004-03-0)
The first celebration of the Muslim holiday Ashura since the fall of Baghdad has been particularly bloody for Shiites -- and ominous for American foreign policy. Some 140 Iranian and Iraqi Shiite pilgrims died in suicide ...
Beyond Hearts and Minds, Culture Matters
(2004-11)
Operation Iraqi Freedom is a multifaceted war in which U.S. troops not only must root out insurgents—as was accomplished in this Fallujah enclave—but must be trained to grasp indigenous mores, mind-sets, and means of ...
A day in the life of a SOSUS array
(ASA, 1994)
Twenty seven hours of acoustic data from the Point Sur SOSUS array were recorded and analyzed to determine the characteristics of diverse underwater acoustic sources. The SNR and variability of moored RAFOS sources at ...
Hadoop MapReduce for Tactical Clouds
(IEEE, 2014-12-01)
We envision a future where real-time computation on the battlefield provides the tactical advantage to an Army over its adversary. The ability to collect and process large amounts of data to provide actionable information ...
Energy-efficient and Fault-tolerant Mobile Cloud Storage
(IEEE, 2016-10-03)
Mobile Cloud Storage (MCS) systems - cloud storageon mobile devices without access to remote data center-type cloud resources, are not only interesting from a theoretical point of view, as they pose the most challenging ...
CRONets: Cloud-Routed Overlay Networks
(IEEE, 2016-08-11)
Overlay networking and ISP-assisted tunneling are effective solutions to overcome problematic BGP routes and bypass troublesome autonomous systems. Despite their demonstrated effectiveness, overlay support is not broadly ...
An integrated systematic approach to designing enterprise access control
(IEEE, 2016-12)
Today, the network design process remains ad hoc
and largely complexity agnostic, often resulting in suboptimal
networks characterized by excessive amounts of dependence
and commands in device configurations. The ...
Data from fitting Gaussian process models to various data sets using eight Gaussian process software packages
(Elsevier, 2017-12-12)
This data article provides the summary data from tests comparing various Gaussian process software packages. Each spreadsheet represents a single function or type of function using a particular input sample size. In each ...
Virtual Reality and Spatial Ability
(IEEE, 2005-08-15)
VR technology provides unique assets for assessing, training and rehabilitating spatial abilities. Its capacity for creating, presenting, and
manipulating dynamic three-dimensional (3D) objects and environments in a ...
Mixed-dimension interaction in virtual environments
(ACM, 2005-11-07)
In this paper, we present a study to show that matching the dimensionality of interaction techniques with the dimensional demands of the task results in an interface that facilitates superior performance on interaction ...
