Balancing Money and Time for OLAP Queries on Cloud Databases
(2017-12-16)Enterprise Database Management Systems (DBMSs) have to contend with resource-intensive and time-varying workloads, making them well-suited candidates for migration to cloud plat-forms { specifically, they can dynamically ... -
Ballast-Free Variable-Speed Generation for Standalone and Grid-Connected Micro-Hydel Power Plants
(2017-12-12)Concerns about climate change brought about by the increasing usage of fossil fuels has made it imperative to develop sustainable energy usage based on renewable sources. Micro-hydel plants are an important source of ... -
Batch Processsor Scheduling - A Class Of Problems In Steel Casting Foundries
(2010-09-15)Modern manufacturing systems need new types of scheduling methods. While traditional scheduling methods are primarily concerned with sequencing of jobs, modern manufacturing environments provide the additional possibility ... -
Battery Buffered Stiff Micro Grid Structure For A Variable Speed Slip Ring Induction Machine Based Wind Generation System
(2010-04-12)Electric power has become a basic necessity of human life. The major share of electric power comes from fossil fuel which results in global warming and pollution. A share of generated power comes from nuclear power which ... -
Bay of Bengal Freshwater in the tropical Indian Ocean
The annual total continental runoff into the Bay of Bengal (BoB) is more than half the runoff into the entire tropical Indian Ocean. The net freshwater (FW) content in the Bay of Bengal mixed layer increases from a minimum ... -
Bayes Optimal Feature Selection for Supervised Learning
(2018-02-18)The problem of feature selection is critical in several areas of machine learning and data analysis such as, for example, cancer classification using gene expression data, text categorization, etc. In this work, we consider ... -
Bayesian Accelerated Life Testing of Series Systems
(2018-01-18)Consider life testing of J-component series systems that are subjected to stress levels that are steeper than that at normal usage condition. The objective of performing such life tests, commonly known as Accelerated Life ... -

Bayesian Nonparametric Modeling of Temporal Coherence for Entity-Driven Video Analytics
(2018-05-14)In recent times there has been an explosion of online user-generated video content. This has generated significant research interest in video analytics. Human users understand videos based on high-level semantic ... -
Bearings-Only Information Based Guidance Law for Trajectory Shaping Applications
Munitions like projectiles and artillery mortars follow ballistic trajectory to hit the target. However, unguided munitions may miss the target due to external disturbances or errors in aerodynamic modeling. A guided ... -
Behavior of Distance Relay Characteristics on Interconnecting Lines Fed From Wind Farms
(2018-05-14)Distance relays due to their selectivity and operating speed are used in HV/EHV line protection. The dynamic nature of Mho characteristic, which happens to be most primitive technique in line protection implemented with ... -
Behaviour Of FRP Strengthened Masonry In Compression And Shear
(2014-04-08)Masonry structures constitute a significant portion of building stock worldwide. Seismic performance of unreinforced masonry has been far from satisfactory. Masonry is purported to be a major source of hazard during ... -

Behaviour Of Geosynthetic Reinforced Soil–Aggregate Systems Under Static, Repeated And Cyclic Loads
(2016-04-26)Efficient road network and connectivity play vital role in the development of any country. Majority of the rural roads are unpaved and connectivity of rural roads is always a major challenge. Unpaved roads are also used ... -
Behaviour of Granular Materials Under Shock and Blast Loading - A Shock Tube Investigation
Granular and porous materials based protective layers have proven to be very good shock absorbing medium. Although sand material is widely used (as sand bags) till date in civil and military applications as a blast mitigating ... -
Belief Propagation and Algorithms for Mean-Field Combinatorial Optimisations
(2017-11-15)We study combinatorial optimization problems on graphs in the mean-field model, which assigns independent and identically distributed random weights to the edges of the graph. Specifically, we focus on two generalizations ...
