Many areas of applied mathematics lead to the same fundamental problem in numerical linear algebra. We identify this problem for a network of resistors. Then we discuss the nonlinear problems of circuit simulation, and algorithms for solving them. The generation of a well-spaced mesh is an essential step for partial differential equations (and also for computer graphics). We describe a short, simple, and public code for unstructured meshes. Then we illustrate recent ideas in moving the mesh as the region changes. We want to emphasize the \"fundamental problem of applied mathematics\" and the new ideas in mesh generation.

Their gates are fixed to the same bias voltage to remove the effect of mobility reduction. The simulation results show that the THD is less than 0.13% for 0.8 V/sub P-P/ input signal at 2.5 V supply voltage, and that the -3 dB bandwidth is up to 38 MHz.","PeriodicalId":237047,"journal":{"name":"IEEE International Symposium on Communications and Information Technology, 2004.

The active net is a lattice network model that is based on minimizing energy to extract the region of a target object. In a conventional method, only one target is detected by one net. Therefore, assuming that the image can be divided into some parts, the proposed method uses many nets and applies them to each divided image. Some simulation results are presented obtained by applying the proposed method to images. In the proposed method, since the size of a net becomes small, the processing time to one net can be shortened. Furthermore, since the distance between lattice points is short in the initial net, the target at the end of an image becomes detectable. That is, it means that the target detection performance has improved.","PeriodicalId":237047,"journal":{"name":"IEEE International Symposium on Communications and Information Technology, 2004.

Therefore, the number of bits used in encoding must be regulated by the rate control algorithm. Basically, the rate control of a video signal, such as MPEG-4, is realized by adaptive quantization. However, since adaptive quantization has the limitation of bit regulation, temporal resolution conversion is also introduced. Temporal resolution conversion is effective for decreasing the number of bits for encoding; however, the conversion causes a decrease in temporal resolution. Decreasing temporal resolution becomes a jerky degradation. In order to keep the temporal resolution, we introduce spatial resolution conversion for the rate control algorithm. Moreover, we show how to choose temporal resolution conversion or spatial resolution conversion. Thus, the proposed method realizes low bit-rate video coding while preserving the original frame-rate.","PeriodicalId":237047,"journal":{"name":"IEEE International Symposium on Communications and Information Technology, 2004.

This is despite resource expansion to satisfy the demand for supply for more mobile subscribers. Cell load dependent algorithm is a channel efficient method to increase network handling capability for the cell site having high traffic peaks. By this feature, half rate channels are only assigned during traffic peak hours automatically, and a flexible assignment is provided. Before assigning a channel, the BSC checks the percentage of busy channels and then BSC handles the threshold comparison, evaluation and assignment of the half and full channels to their networks. During off peak time, we can offer higher speech quality via only full rate channels. When cell load dependent mechanism is activated, adaptive multirate for half rate channels will be activated automatically.","PeriodicalId":237047,"journal":{"name":"IEEE International Symposium on Communications and Information Technology, 2004.

Seriously cropped watermarked images which have various shapes, sizes and locations make it difficult to verify the copyright. This paper proposes a digital image watermarking technique in the spatial domain using prediction method and the Weber ratio. Pixels for embedding the watermarks are altered based on the binary watermark image using the Weber ratio to control the strength of the watermark. Our technique does not require the host image to extract the watermarks. An extracted watermark is computed by subtracting the watermarked pixel with its predicted pixel The experimental results showed that our technique yielded high similarity of the watermarks when a watermarked image was attacked by JPEG compression and the cropping attack.","PeriodicalId":237047,"journal":{"name":"IEEE International Symposium on Communications and Information Technology, 2004.
