Introduction to Matrix Analytic Methods in Queues 1

Analytical and Simulation Approach - Basics

By: Srinivas R. Chakravarthy

Matrix-analytic methods (MAM) were introduced by Professor Marcel Neuts and have been applied to a variety of stochastic models since. In order to provide a clear and deep understanding of MAM while showing their power, this book presents MAM concepts and explains the results using a number of worked-out examples. This book’s approach will inform and kindle the interest of researchers attracted to this fertile field. To allow readers to practice and gain experience in the algorithmic and computational procedures of MAM, Introduction to Matrix Analytic Methods in Queues 1 provides a number of computational exercises. It also incorporates simulation as another tool for studying complex stochastic models, especially when the state space of the underlying stochastic models under analytic study grows exponentially. The book’s detailed approach will make it more accessible for readers interested in learning about MAM in stochastic models.

Managing Coal

A Challenge in Adaption

By: Balaji S. Chakravarthy

Coal, hailed as "America's ace in the hole" because this country holds about thirty percent of the recoverable reserve in the world, is being looked to as a viable solution to the encroaching energy crisis. Surprisingly, while being a subject of intense current interest, the management of coal companies has until now remained a largely neglected field of research. Concerned over how the coal industry could effectively contribute to the energy future, Chakravarthy presents this comprehensive study on individual coal companies. The book is concerned primarily with management's strategic responses to the coal challenges that they have faced since the late 1960s. Using the theory of organizational adaptation, it describes and examines the three distinct ways managers of coal companies are facing the problem of transforming the limiting aspects of their internal structure to fit the industry's changing environment. Based on four in-depth case studies, the book proposes a model of adaptation, building on existing concepts in the field. (By demonstrating the descriptive power of the model, the study makes a simultaneous contribution to the theory of adaptation.) It also reviews the history of adaptation in the coal industry and describes the new challenges to which coal companies must respond, exploring the implications for both coal company management and federal energy planners.

Stream Data Processing: A Quality of Service Perspective

Modeling, Scheduling, Load Shedding, and Complex Event Processing

By: Sharma Chakravarthy,Qingchun Jiang

The systems used to process data streams and provide for the needs of stream-based applications are Data Stream Management Systems (DSMSs). This book presents a new paradigm to meet the needs of these applications, including a detailed discussion of the techniques proposed. Ii includes important aspects of a QoS-driven DSMS (Data Stream Management System) and introduces applications where a DSMS can be used and discusses needs beyond the stream processing model. It also discusses in detail the design and implementation of MavStream. This volume is primarily intended as a reference book for researchers and advanced-level students in computer science. It is also appropriate for practitioners in industry who are interested in developing applications.

Computational Neuroscience Models of the Basal Ganglia

By: V. Srinivasa Chakravarthy,Ahmed A. Moustafa

The book is a compendium of the aforementioned subclass of models of Basal Ganglia, which presents some the key existent theories of Basal Ganglia function. The book presents computational models of basal ganglia-related disorders, including Parkinson’s disease, schizophrenia, and addiction. Importantly, it highlights the applications of understanding the role of the basal ganglia to treat neurological and psychiatric disorders. The purpose of the present book is to amend and expand on James Houk’s book (MIT press; ASIN: B010BF4U9K) by providing a comprehensive overview on computational models of the basal ganglia. This book caters to researchers and academics from the area of computational cognitive neuroscience.

Reinforced Polymer Matrix Syntactic Foams

Effect of Nano and Micro-Scale Reinforcement

By: Nikhil Gupta,Dinesh Pinisetty,Vasanth Chakravarthy Shunmugasamy

Reinforced Syntactic Foams: Effect of Nano and Micro-Scale Reinforcement examines the fabrication processes, mechanism of reinforcement, and structure-property correlations of reinforced syntactic foams. The authors present the state of the art in this field, compare the properties of various types of syntactic foam systems comprising different matrix, hollow particle, and reinforcement materials. The book further identifies theories useful in predicting the properties of reinforced syntactic foams and conducting parametric studies to understand the possibility for tailoring their properties.

Efficient Biometric Indexing and Retrieval Techniques for Large-Scale Systems

By: Ilaiah Kavati,Munaga V.N.K. Prasad,Chakravarthy Bhagvati

This work presents a review of different indexing techniques designed to enhance the speed and efficiency of searches over large biometric databases. The coverage includes an extended Delaunay triangulation-based approach for fingerprint biometrics, involving a classification based on the type of minutiae at the vertices of each triangle. This classification is demonstrated to provide improved partitioning of the database, leading to a significant decrease in the number of potential matches during identification. This discussion is then followed by a description of a second indexing technique, which sorts biometric images based on match scores calculated against a set of pre-selected sample images, resulting in a rapid search regardless of the size of the database. The text also examines a novel clustering-based approach to indexing with decision-level fusion, using an adaptive clustering algorithm to compute a set of clusters represented by a ‘leader’ image, and then determining the index code from the set of leaders. This is shown to improve identification performance while using minimal resources.

A History of South India for Children

From Prehistory to Vijayanagara

By: Pradeep Chakravarthy

The Kohinoor diamond was once the eye of a Kakatiya deity. The Pandyas are counted among the world's longest ruling dynasties. Sanskrit poets spun mesmerizing verse that could be read in reverse too. Tantalizing Malabar spices flavoured the most lavish ancient Roman banquets. Make your way across south India, exploring its kaleidoscopic past and dazzling heritage, right from its first inhabitants up to the Vijayanagara Empire. Meet its royalty and courtiers, builders and sculptors, poets and authors, traders and merchants, spiritual leaders and devotees, and all the other people who went to make it a top destination of the time. Separated from the north by the Vindhya mountains and surrounded on three sides by water, southern India developed its own unique features - with outstanding rulers, incredible literature, spellbinding architecture, stunning dance forms and delicious food. Written in an easy style, by theme, and peppered with illustrations, photographs and tips for museum or monument visits, this very first history of south India for children (and their families) tells the thrilling and eventful story of the region's proud past.

Calcium

The Grand-master Cell Signaler

By: James F. Whitfield,Balu R. Chakravarthy,National Research Council Canada

This volume provides a lucid state-of-the-art tour of the critical signaling roles calcium plays in both the normal and carcinogenic cell cycles of proliferation, differentiation, and death. Whitfield and Chakravarthy (Institute for Biological Sciences, National Research Council of Canada, Ottawa) commence their discussion with the intriguing comment that no revolution has had as much an impact on Earth as the Great Calcium-Driven Eukaryotic Revolution occurring soon after the planet's birth. The final chapter explains how calcium also drives responsiveness in plants. Includes exceptionally well-referenced chapters, crisp color graphics, and a bilingual French-English abstract.
