A Multi-ring data flow architecture for parallel execution of logic programs.
The problems in Artificial Intelligence (AI) are highly search-intensive, requiring enormous amounts of computation time on a sequential computer. This has motivated researchers to design parallel computer architectures ... -
Acid catalysed cyclisation of steroidal seco-diones-total synthesis of racemic copacamphor & their Ylangocamphor & their G-homologues..
The thesis entitled “Acid-Catalysed Cyclisation of Steroidal Seco-Diones – Total Synthesis of Racemic Copacamphor and Ylangocamphor and Their C?-Homologues” consists of three chapters. The bicyclo[3.2.1]octane ring system ... -
Analogies and their use in problem-solving
The thesis deals with the meaning of "analogy" and how it can be extracted and exploited for the following two classes of problems: CLASS 1: How can one transfer the theorems of one domain (in mathematics) to analogous ... -
A Broadcast Cube-Based Multiprocessor Architecture for Solving Partial Differential Equations
(Indian Institute of Science, 2005-01-26)A large number of mathematical models in engineering and physical sciences employ Partial Differential Equations (PDEs). The sheer number of operations required in numerically integrating PDEs in these applications has ... -
Computer recognition of hand printed characters: an automated approach to the design of recognizers
Computer Recognition of Handprinted Characters is a well-established field of research, active for over three decades. Despite extensive work and numerous publications, the ultimate goal of developing a recognizer with ... -
Concurrency control algorithms for database systems exploiting the semantics of read-only transactions.
This thesis proposes new locking-based concurrency control algorithms for both centralized and distributed databases. The concurrency control algorithms proposed exploit the semantics of read-only transactions to improve ... -
Design of parallel algorithms for a multiple bus multiprocessor system
Matrix operations play a crucial role in scientific computations. This thesis presents the design and analysis of four parallel matrix computation algorithms specifically suited for a broadcast bus-based Multiple Bus ... -
Development and application of a new method for detection of structural equivalence in graphs
This thesis mainly concerns the isomorphism problem encountered in computerized structural synthesis of kinematic chains. The contributions of the thesis to the study of structural aspects of linkages are the following. 1. ... -
Developments in two dimensional NMR spectroscopy of multiple quantum coherences of couples spins in liquids
The pathway description provides a straightforward method of computing flip-angle dependence of various multiple quantum coherences in the 2D MQ and the 2D COSY spectroscopy. Using this flip-angle dependence it is possible ... -
Dharwar stratigraphy and gold mineralisation in Kolar supracrustal belt Karnataka craton India.
The Karnataka Craton is composed of four chief crustal components, viz., the Peninsular Gneiss Complex (PGC), the Sargur Supercrustals, the Dharwar Supercrustals, and the younger granites. The craton is roughly divided ... -
Ergodic and adaptive control of markov processes.
We address the problem of controlling two classes of Markov processes, viz., Markov chains and diffusion processes. Our main goal is to minimize a long-run average cost criterion (or ergodic cost criterion) associated with ... -
Geothermal energy utilisation by cascaded model application: a techno-economic analysis-with particular reference to puga.
In any calculation of the world energy resources, the finiteness of fossil fuel resources set the limits. Most authorities are agreed that by the turn of the century there could be a rapidly developing shortfall in the ... -
Hysterisis in model spin systems.
In this thesis a systematic study of hysteresis in model spin systems is undertaken by constructing the first statistical-mechanical theory wherein spatial fluctuations of the order parameter are incorporated. The theory ... -
Influence of Lot Sizing on Lead Time Error Costs in M.R.P. Systems- a Computer Simulation Study
(Indian Institute of Science, 2005-03-11)Timing of ordering of inventory items is of very great importance in Materials Requirement Planning. Uncertainties in timing can have an adverse effect on the system performance. Most often the lead time variation contribute ... -
Investigations of the interaction of molecules with clean and modified transition metal surfaces by techniques of electron spectroscopy
We have hitherto discussed the features of adsorbed oxygen on a variety of metal surfaces as characterised by the techniques of electron spectroscopy. Specifically, the characteristics of the different oxygen species O²?, ... -
A Knowledge-Based Approach To Pattern Clustering
(Indian Institute of Science, 2005-03-11)The primary objective of this thesis is to develop a methodology for clustering of objects based on their functionality typified by the notion of concept. We begin by giving a formal definition of concept. By assigning a ... -
