PALATALIZATION IN ALBANIAN: AN ACOUSTIC INVESTIGATION OF STOPS AND AFFRICATES
(University of Texas at Arlington, 2004-05)Palatalization is a very common process cross-linguistically; it has been widely attested in both Indo-European (e.g. Slavic) and non-Indo-European languages (e.g. Bantu and Chinese). Palatalization can be broken down into ... -
Panda Monitoring - a System To Monitor High Performance Computing for the Atlas Experiment-Design, Development,Implementation and Deployment
(Computer Science & Engineering, 2008-04-22)Grid resources are gaining wide importance in the wake of experiments such as ATLAS aiding in a bigger goal to understand the complexities of nature. The need for a good monitoring system is realized as grid resources are ... -
Pandemic Pedagogy: A Case Study of Commenting Practices in a Pandemic
(2022-05-16)This thesis reviews best practices for commenting on student submission and reports the findings of a case study from the 2020 spring semester. -
Panprotopsychism Instantiated
(Cambridge University Press, 2021-10-21)The problem of many-over-one asks how it can be that many properties are ever instantiated by one object. A putative solution might, for example, claim that the properties are appropriately bundled, or somehow tied to a ... -
Parallel Interference Cancellation Multiuser Detectors For DS-CDMA Communication Systems
(Electrical Engineering, 2007-08-23)A non-linear sub-optimal multiuser detector in the form of parallel interference cancellation (PIC) has been studied. The main objective of this thesis is to develop an analytical model for PIC performance analysis and ... -
Parallel Optimization Of Intra Mode Selection In HEVC Using Open MP
(Electrical Engineering, 2014-12)HEVC aims at providing an efficient video coding algorithm which not only provides high performance, but also improves coding efficiency. It also provides high compression efficiency as compared to its counter parts, but ... -
Parallelizing Packet Processing in Container Overlay Networks
(ACM, 2021-04-26)Container networking, which provides connectivity among containers on multiple hosts, is crucial to building and scaling container-based microservices. While overlay networks are widely adopted in production systems, ... -
