A jamming game is considered. A transmitter encodes the data, in a product code (PC), and transmits it in a slow frequency-hopped spread-spectrum (FHSS) system. A hostile jammer attempts to block correct packet reception by adjusting the fraction of the total band in which it distributes the jam power, /spl rho/. Two cases are considered. In the first case, the transmitter declares his strategy and the jammer uses this information to select his best jamming fraction. In the second case, the jammer declares his strategy first and the transmitter uses this information to select his best rates. Results are obtained using asymptotic analysis of a product code using singly extended Reed-Solomon (RS) row and column codes whose size grows large. This asymptotic analysis leads to good choices of the row and column rates for the PC in both cases.

In this paper we propose a technique to incorporate contextual information into object classification. In the real world there are cases where the identity of an object is ambiguous due to the noise in the measurements based on which the classification should be made. It is helpful to reduce the ambiguity by utilizing extra information referred to as context, which in our case is the identities of the accompanying objects. This technique is applied to white blood cell classification. Comparisons are made against "no context" approach, which demonstrates the superior classification performance achieved by using context. In our particular application, it significantly reduces false alarm rate and thus greatly reduces the cost due to expensive clinical tests.

A parallel method developed for reconstructing images from holograms obtained with optical scanning holography is presented. A standard portable message-passing library, MPI or message-passing interface, is used to provide the environment of parallel programming. The parallel method is implemented using a network of workstations. The process of reconstructing images with twin-image removal from holograms is performed in parallel with respect to different reconstruction planes of interest. This process contributes to possible faster three-dimensional object identification to be investigated in future research.

In an era of fiscal austerity, downsizing and unforgiving pressure upon human and economic capital, it is an Augean task to identify resources for fresh and creative work. The realities of the day and the practical demands of more immediate fleet needs can often dictate higher priorities. Yet, the Navy must avoid eating its seed corn. Exercising both technical insight and management foresight, the fleet, the R&D community, the Office of the Chief of Naval Operations (OpNav) and the product engineering expertise of the Naval Surface Warfare Center (NSWC) are joined and underway with integrated efforts to marry new, fully demonstrated technologies and operational urgencies. Defense funding today cannot sponsor all work that can be mission-justified over the long term because budgets are insufficient to support product maturation within the classical development cycle. However, by rigorous technical filtering and astute engineering of both marketplace capabilities and currently available components, it is possible in a few select cases to compress and, in effect, integrate advanced development (6.3), engineering development (6.4), weapon procurement (WPN), ship construction (SCN), operation and maintenance (O&M,N) budgetary categories when fleet criticalities and technology opportunities can happily meet. In short, 6.3 funds can be applied directly to ''ripe gateways'' so modern technology is inserted into existing troubled or aging systems, sidestepping the lengthy, traditional development cycle and accelerating practical payoffs to recurrent fleet problems. To produce such constructive results has required a remarkable convergence of sponsor prescience and engineering workforce excellence. The paper describes, extensively, the philosophy of approach, transition strategy, polling of fleet needs, technology assessment, and management team requirements. The process for culling and selecting specific candidate tasks for SHARP sponsorship (matching operational need with t

Body surface Laplacian maps were studied from a set of unipolar potential data in healthy human subjects. The present results indicate that body surface Laplacian maps can be obtained with high reproducibility in the human subjects studied, and can reveal detailed information regarding the underlying ventricular conduction process.

A theoretical model of microwave absorption in linear dielectric (non-ferroelectric) ionic crystals that takes into account the presence of point defects was synthesized and verified using NaCl single crystals. In the next stage of this research, we will introduce a controlled density of dislocations into the single crystal NaCl samples and study the effect on the microwave absorption mechanisms (ionic conduction, dielectric relaxation and multi-phonon processes) both theoretically and experimentally. Qualitative outlines of this modified theory are presented. The loss factor ε’ has been measured in the dislocation-free case by a cavity resonator insertion technique and the experimental results are in good agreement with the theoretical model. We describe the sample preparation technique that will be used to produce a controlled dislocation density in single crystal samples that will also be studied in our cavity resonator insertion system.
