A class project on the difference between GSM VS CDMA.

The purpose of this work is to outline the first steps taken towards the building of an automatic interpretation and hypothesis generation machine. The contents of this thesis describe the framework built to parse and manipulate the knowl- edge assemblies encoded in BEL, which enables BEL to act as a semantic inte- gration layer for heterogeneous data and knowledge sources, the development of a framework for automatic integration of relevant knowledge from structured sources, and the development of schema-free analytical techniques to generate data-driven hypothesis.

Este trabalho tem a missão de explicar alguns temas de sistemas distribuídos, estes sistemas são fundamentais para a comunicação, integração e processamento de dados via internet ou rede local. Ao longo do trabalho abordaremos os principais tópicos tais como: WebServices, Padrões de Sockets entre outros.

The usage of software has grown as computers become popular. There have emerged, both in academia and in the market, technological solutions for several areas, among them education. On the other hand, classroom teaching and learning continues to suffer from classical educational problems such as lack of student and teacher motivation and lack of clear educational goals. And although software supports learning across a range of disciplines and ages, children's audiences, especially in mathematics, have been little contemplated with the benefits that technological solutions can bring. Therefore, the use of pedagogical approaches, such as Bloom's Taxonomy and Formative Assessments, together with gamification techniques, such as Octalysis, can be used to develop a technological solution that contemplates this public. The present work aims to propose the development of a software to assist the teaching and learning of mathematics for children in the classroom.

General Game Playing (GGP) is the playing of a wide variety games you may have never seen before, by being told nothing but the rules of the game at run time. This sets it apart from traditional specific game players, like the famous chess player Deep Blue. Deep Blue can beat the world chess champion at chess however, it has absolutely no idea how to play checkers. It is designed for one particular game and cannot adapt to rule changes, and certainly cannot play entirely different games. The goal of this project is to create a program that will play a wide variety of 2d games given descriptions of their rules without the creator of the program having ever known of the games. This report will cover the design and implementation of this project, as well as the background research performed and reflections on the outcome of the project.

The Antarctic Impulsive Transient Antenna (ANITA) is a NASA long-duration balloon experiment with the primary goal of detecting ultra-high-energy (\(> 10^{18}\)eV) neutrinos via the Askaryan Effect. In the fourth ANITA mission, the Tunable Universal Filter Frontend (TUFF) boards were deployed for mitigation of narrow-band, anthropogenic noise with tunable, switchable notch filters. They contributed to a factor of 2.8 higher total instrument livetime in ANITA-4 compared to ANITA-3. A search for a diffuse flux of ultra-high-energy neutrinos was conducted using the data collected during the ANITA-3 flight with a new approach where the Antarctic ice area is sectioned off into bins and a search is performed with different thresholds in different bins. The binned analysis methods were extended to the development of a search for neutrinos from Gamma Ray Bursts, implementing constraints in time, and for the first time, in direction. Lower analysis thresholds were achieved in a feasibility search even when extending the search to include longer afterglow periods. Authored with osudiss-2.cls (v0.9.1)

In Email Analytics, our main focus on criminal and civil investigation from large email dataset. It is very difficult to deal with challenging task for investigator due to large size of email dataset. This paper offer an interactive email analytics various to current and manually intensive technique is used for search evidence from large email dataset. In investigation process, many emails are irrelevant to the investigation so it will force investigator to search carefully through email in order to find relevant emails manually. This process is very costly in terms of money and times. To help to investigation process. We combine Elasticsearch, Logstash and Kibana for data storing, data preprocessing, data visualization and data analytics and displaying results. In this process reduce the number of email which are irrelevant for investigation. It shows the relationship between them and also analyzing the email corpus based on topic relation using text mining.
