Designing a reconfigurable frame parser to translate radio protocol descriptions to asynchronous microprocessor cores is a relatively recent concept. As asynchronous microprocessors do not run an operating system, the paradigm of multi-radio support on these cores need to be investigated in a different light than the conventional software defined radios. The main challenge in such a design is realizing multi-radio FFD (fully functional device) emulation on an extremely low-memory footprint before translating it to the asynchronous core. In this work-in-progress paper, we describe some of the design methodologies involved in designing a reconfigurable radio MAC frame parser for translating multi-radio protocol description to asynchronous processor cores. We intend to realize this run-time in hardware and are working to realize a prototype on FPGA. The prototype would demonstrate a design methodology to include asynchronous instruction set targets in dynamic run-time multi-language compiler translation","PeriodicalId":308247,"journal":{"name":"2007 International Conference on Computing: Theory and Applications (ICCTA'07)","volume":"32 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2007-03-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116190861","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The data size dependent training time complexity of SVMs usually prohibits its use in applications involving more than a few thousands of data points.

The clustering method introduced can find cluster abstractions of the training data in a kernel induced feature space. These cluster abstractions are then used for selective sampling based training of support vector machines to reduce the training time without compromising the generalization performance.

Currently, for the purpose of simultaneous querying data from multiple databases, the federated database technique is used extensively. However, the effectiveness of such a technique is suspect when it comes to querying heterogeneous databases. Therefore, it becomes imperative to develop an efficient methodology for the semantic integration of heterogeneous online databases. This may be realized by defining a mapping from a relational database to a description that utilises the resource description framework (RDF). Such a representation would be machine processable and would make the semantics as expressed by databases more explicit and, thereby, facilitate their integration","PeriodicalId":308247,"journal":{"name":"2007 International Conference on Computing: Theory and Applications (ICCTA'07)","volume":"20 4","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2007-03-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131550924","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A spectral angle based classification before dimensionality reduction is a possible solution to this problem. Clustering based on support vectors using spectral based kernels is proposed in this work, which is found to generate good results in hyperspectral image classification. The algorithm is tested with two hyperspectral image data sets of 210 bands each, which are taken with hyper-spectral digital imagery collection experiment (HYDICE) air-borne sensors.
