This paper reports the development of global FDTD models incorporated with a quasi-real anisotropic ionosphere consisting of magnetized cold plasmas. Compared to the existing global models utilizing simple conductivity ionospheric profiles, the algorithms reported in this paper can sufficiently extend the global-scale electromagnetic simulations to much higher altitudes as the physics introduced by the spatially-varied ionospheric plasmas and the geomagnetic field can be fully included in calculations.
Prediction is one of the major challenges in complex systems. The prediction methods have shown to be effective predictors of the evolution of networks. These methods can help policy makers to solve practical problems...

With increasing demand for higher operating frequencies, printed circuit board (PCB) designers are faced with numerous obstacles during the design cycle. The 20-H rule is one layout technique that is recommended to minimize radiated fields propagating from the edges of a PCB. These fields, either magnetic or electric, may corrupt adjacent cable assemblies, sheet metal enclosures and aperture openings. The magnitude of this design rule is investigated herein using the numerical electromagnetic simulation method, finite difference time domain (FDTD). In addition, an analysis on whether benefits exist from use of the 20-H rule is examined. The significance to the field of EMC lies in presenting, for the first time, an exhaustive analysis that took over one year to achieve using various configurations and frequencies. A rigorous analysis indicates that benefits do occur from use of the 20-H rule, but only when implemented in certain applications.

Large-scale data storage systems rely on magnetic tape cartridges to store millions of data objects. As these tapes age, the resident data objects become invalid; consequently, less and less of the tape potential capacity is effectively utilized. To address this problem, data storage systems have a facility, called "recycle" in this paper, that transfers valid data objects from sparsely populated tapes onto new tapes, thus creating empty tapes for reuse. A highperformance recycle process is needed to keep the number of tape cartridges to a minimum, and to maintain a continuous supply of empty tapes for storing newly created data objects. The performance of such processes is not easy to determine, and depends strongly on the data stored on the tapes, the speed and characteristics of the computer on which recycle is executed, and the nature of the algorithms themselves. This paper documents an extensive effort to evaluate a proposed recycle algorithm, using held workload data, laboratory measurements, and modeling. The results of the study were used to improve the recycle process, and were later verified through field trials. In addition yielding the results themselves, the effort illustrated that modeling and measurement, in an industrial setting, can indeed be used successfully in the design process.< >
