ARQ Aware Scheduling for the IEEE 802.16 Base Station
2008
The IEEE 802.16 technology defines the ARQ mechanism that enables a connection to resend data at the MAC level if an error is detected. In this paper, we analyze the ARQ aware scheduling for the 802.16 base station. In particular, we consider how the BS scheduler can account for the ARQ block size, absence of the ARQ block rearrangement, and the ARQ transmission window. We propose a set of constraints that can be applied to any base station scheduler algorithm. To test them, we run a number of simulation scenarios. The simulations results confirm that the ARQ aware scheduling can improve the overall performance.
Performance analysis of the ieee 802.16 arq mechanism
2007
The IEEE 802.16 technology defines the ARQ mechanism that enables a connection to resend data at the MAC level if an error is detected. In this paper, we analyze the key features and parameters of the 802.16 ARQ mechanism. In particular, we consider a choice for the ARQ feedback type, an algorithm to build block sequences, a scheduling of the ARQ feedbacks and retransmissions, the ARQ block rearrangement, ARQ transmission window and ARQ block size. We run a number of simulation scenarios to study these parameters and how they impact a performance of application protocols. The simulation results reveal that the ARQ mechanism and its correct configuration play an important role in transmittin…
On ARQ feedback intensity of the IEEE 802.16 ARQ mechanism
2008
The IEEE 802.16 standard defines the ARQ mechanism as a part of the MAC layer. The functioning of the ARQ mechanism depends on a number of parameters. The IEEE 802.16 specification defines them but it does not provide concrete values and solutions. We ran simulation scenarios to study how the ARQ feedback intensity impacts the performance of application protocols. The simulation results reveal that a low ARQ feedback intensity results only in a marginal improvement. Though it is possible to optimize the ARQ feedback intensity, it is reasonable to rely upon more frequent ARQ feedback messages as they do not result in a performance degradation. At the same time, ARQ connections, which work on…

A Sliding Window-Based Method to Detect Selective Constraints in Protein-Coding Genes and Its Application to RNA Viruses
2002
Here we present a new sliding window-based method specially designed to detect selective constraints in specific regions of a multiple protein-coding sequence alignment. In contrast to previous window-based procedures, our method is based on a nonarbitrary statistical approach to find the appropriate codon-window size to test deviations of synonymous (d(S)) and nonsynonymous (d(N)) nucleotide substitutions from the expectation. The probabilities of d(N) and d(S) are obtained from simulated data and used to detect significant deviations of d(N) and d(S) in a specific window region of the real sequence alignment. The nonsynonymous-to-synonymous rate ratio (w = d(N)/d(S)) was used to highlight…
L0 trigger for the EMCal detector of the ALICE experiment
2012
Abstract The ALICE experiment at the CERN Large Hadron Collider (LHC) accelerator was designed to study ultra-relativistic heavy-ion collisions. The ALICE Electromagnetic Calorimeter (EMCal) was built to provide measurement of photons, electrons, and jets, and trigger selection of hard-QCD events containing them. The EMCal single-shower L0 trigger, which triggers on large energy deposit within a 4×4 tower sliding window, became operational in 2010. The implementation of the real-time FPGA based algorithm optimized to provide a fast L0 decision is presented.
Prediction of Highly Non-stationary Time Series Using Higher-Order Neural Units
2017
Adaptive predictive models can use conventional and nonconventional neural networks for highly non-stationary time series prediction. However, conventional neural networks present a series of known drawbacks. This paper presents a brief discussion about this concern as well as how the basis of higher-order neural units can overcome some of them; it also describes a sliding window technique alongside the batch optimization technique for capturing the dynamics of non-stationary time series over a Quadratic Neural Unit, a special case of higher-order neural units. Finally, an experimental analysis is presented to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach.
