Simulación de seguimiento de blancos en sistemas radar. Parte 2

El proyecto consiste en el diseño y estudio de un software cuyas prestaciones estén orientadas a gestionar una simulación de un sistema de radar. El prototipo de este entorno de simulación se ha realizado en el lenguaje Matlab debido a que inicialmente se considera el más adecuado para el tratamiento de las señales que los sistemas de radar manejan para realizar sus cálculos. Se ha escogido como modelo el software desarrollado por la compañía SAP para gestionar los E.R.P.s de grandes empresas. El motivo es que es un software cuyo diseño y funcionalidad es especialmente adecuado para la gestión ordenada de una cantidad grande de datos diversos de forma integrada. Diseñar e implementar el propio entorno es una tarea de enorme complejidad y que requerirá el esfuerzo de una cantidad importante de personas; por lo que este proyecto se ha limitado, a un prototipo básico con una serie de características mínimas; así como a indicar y dejar preparado el camino por el que deberán transcurrir las futuras agregaciones de funcionalidad o mejoras. Funcionalmente, esto es, independientemente de la implementación específica con la que se construya el entorno de simulación, se ha considerado dividir las características y prestaciones ofrecidas por el sistema en bloques. Estos bloques agruparán los componentes relacionados con un aspecto específico de la simulación, por ejemplo, el bloque 1, es el asignado a todo lo relacionado con el blanco a detectar. El usuario del entorno de simulación interactuará con el sistema ejecutando lo que se llaman transacciones, que son agrupaciones lógicas de datos a introducir/consultar en el sistema relacionados y que se pueden ejecutar de forma independiente. Un ejemplo de transacción es la que permite mantener una trayectoria de un blanco junto con sus parámetros, pero también puede ser una transacción la aplicación que permite por ejemplo, gestionar los usuarios con acceso al entorno. Es decir, las transacciones son el componente mínimo a partir del cual el usuario puede interactuar con el sistema. La interfaz gráfica que se le ofrecerá al usuario, está basada en modos, que se pueden considerar “ventanas” independientes entre sí dentro de las cuáles el usuario ejecuta sus transacciones. El usuario podrá trabajar con cuantos modos en paralelo desee y cambiar según desee entre ellos. La programación del software se ha realizado utilizando la metodología de orientación a objetos y se ha intentado maximizar la reutilización del código así como la configurabilidad de su funcionalidad. Una característica importante que se ha incorporado para garantizar la integridad de los datos es un diccionario sintáctico. Para permitir la persistencia de los datos entre sesiones del usuario se ha implementado una base de datos virtual (que se prevé se reemplace por una real), que permite manejar, tablas, campos clave, etc. con el fin de guardar todos los datos del entorno, tanto los de configuración que solo serían responsabilidad de los administradores/desarrolladores como los datos maestros y transaccionales que serían gestionados por los usuarios finales del entorno de simulación. ABSTRACT. This end-of-degree project comprises the design, study and implementation of a software based application able to simulate the various aspects and performance of a radar system. A blueprint for this application has been constructed upon the Matlab programming language. This is due to the fact that initially it was thought to be the one most suitable to the complex signals radar systems usually process; but it has proven to be less than adequate for all the other core processes the simulation environment must provide users with. The software’s design has been based on another existing software which is the one developed by the SAP company for managing enterprises, a software categorized (and considered the paradigm of) as E.R.P. software (E.R.P. stands for Enterprise Resource Planning). This software has been selected as a model because is very well suited (its basic features) for working in an orderly fashion with a pretty good quantity of data of very diverse characteristics, and for doing it in a way which protects the integrity of the data. To design and construct the simulation environment with all its potential features is a pretty hard task and requires a great amount of effort and work to be dedicated to its accomplishment. Due to this, the scope of this end-of-degree project has been focused to design and construct a very basic prototype with minimal features, but which way future developments and upgrades to the systems features should go has also been pointed. In a purely functional approach, i.e. disregarding completely the specific implementation which accomplishes the simulation features, the different parts or aspects of the simulation system have been divided and classified into blocks. The blocks will gather together and comprise the various components related with a specific aspect of the simulation landscape, for example, block number one will be the one dealing with all the features related to the radars system target. The user interaction with the system will be based on the execution of so called transactions, which essentially consist on bunches of information which logically belong together and can thus be managed together. A good example, could be a transaction which permits to maintain a series of specifications for target’s paths; but it could also be something completely unrelated with the radar system itself as for example, the management of the users who can access the system. Transactions will be thus the minimum unit of interaction of users with the system. The graphic interface provided to the user will be mode based, which can be considered something akin to a set of independent windows which are able on their own to sustain the execution of an independent transaction. The user ideally should be able to work with as many modes simultaneously as he wants to, switching his focus between them at will. The approach to the software construction has been based on the object based paradigm. An effort has been made to maximize the code’s reutilization and also in maximizing its customizing, i.e., same sets of code able to perform different tasks based on configuration data. An important feature incorporated to the software has been a data dictionary (a syntactic one) which helps guarantee data integrity. Another important feature that allow to maintain data persistency between user sessions, is a virtual relational data base (which should in future times become a real data base) which allows to store data in tables. The data store in this tables comprises both the system’s configuration data (which administrators and developers will maintain) and also master and transactional data whose maintenance will be the end users task.

Study of OLSR protocol with Network Simulator 2 over Linux

Until a few years ago, most of the network communications were based in the wire as the physical media, but due to the advances and the maturity of the wireless communications, this is changing. Nowadays wireless communications offers fast, secure, efficient and reliable connections. Mobile communications are in expansion, clearly driven by the use of smart phones and other mobile devices, the use of laptops, etc��� Besides that point, the inversion in the installation and maintenance of the physical medium is much lower than in wired communications, not only because the air has no cost, but because the installation and maintenance of the wire require a high economic cost. Besides the economic cost we find that wire is a more vulnerable medium to external threats such as noise, sabotages, etc��� There are two different types of wireless networks: those which the structure is part of the network itself and those which have a lack of structure or any centralization, in a way that the devices that form part of the network can connect themselves in a dynamic and random way, handling also the routing of every control and information messages, this kind of networks is known as Ad-hoc. In the present work we will proceed to study one of the multiple wireless protocols that allows mobile communications, it is Optimized Link State Routing, from now on, OLSR, it is an pro-active routing, standard mechanism that works in a distributed in order to stablish the connections among the different nodes that belong to a wireless network. Thanks to this protocol it is possible to get all the routing tables in all the devices correctly updated every moment through the periodical transmission of control messages and on this way allow a complete connectivity among the devices that are part of the network and also, allow access to other external networks such as virtual private networks o Internet. This protocol could be perfectly used in environments such as airports, malls, etc��� The update of the routing tables in all the devices is got thanks to the periodical transmission of control messages and finally it will offer connectivity among all the devices and the corresponding external networks. For the study of OLSR protocol we will have the help of the network simulator “Network Simulator 2”, a freeware network simulator programmed in C++ based in discrete events. This simulator is used mainly in educational and research environments and allows a very extensive range of protocols, both, wired networks protocols and wireless network protocols, what is going to be really useful to proceed to the simulation of different configurations of networks and protocols. In the present work we will also study different simulations with Network Simulator 2, in different scenarios with different configurations, wired networks, and Ad-hoc networks, where we will study OLSR Protocol. RESUMEN. Hasta hace pocos años, la mayoría de las comunicaciones de red estaban basadas en el cable como medio físico pero debido al avance y madurez alcanzados en el campo de las comunicaciones inalámbricas esto está cambiando. Hoy día las comunicaciones inalámbricas nos ofrecen conexiones veloces, seguras, eficientes y fiables. Las comunicaciones móviles se encuentran en su momento de máxima expansión, claramente impulsadas por el uso de teléfonos y demás dispositivos móviles, el uso de portátiles, etc��� Además la inversión a realizar en la instalación y el mantenimiento del medio físico en las comunicaciones móviles es muchísimo menor que en comunicaciones por cable, ya no sólo porque el aire no tenga coste alguno, sino porque la instalación y mantenimiento del cable precisan de un elevado coste económico por norma. Además del coste económico nos encontramos con que es un medio más vulnerable a amenazas externas tales como el ruido, escuchas no autorizadas, sabotajes, etc��� Existen dos tipos de redes inalámbricas: las constituidas por una infraestructura que forma parte más o menos de la misma y las que carecen de estructura o centralización alguna, de modo que los dispositivos que forman parte de ella pueden conectarse de manera dinámica y arbitraria entre ellos, encargándose además del encaminamiento de todos los mensajes de control e información, a este tipo de redes se las conoce como redes Ad-hoc. En el presente Proyecto de Fin de Carrera se procederá al estudio de uno de los múltiples protocolos inalámbricos que permiten comunicaciones móviles, se trata del protocolo inalámbrico Optimized Link State Routing, de ahora en adelante OLSR, un mecanismo estándar de enrutamiento pro-activo, que trabaja de manera distribuida para establecer las conexiones entre los nodos que formen parte de las redes inalámbricas Ad-hoc, las cuales carecen de un nodo central y de una infraestructura pre-existente. Gracias a este protocolo es posible conseguir que todos los equipos mantengan en todo momento las tablas de ruta actualizadas correctamente mediante la transmisión periódica de mensajes de control y así permitir una completa conectividad entre todos los equipos que formen parte de la red y, a su vez, también permitir el acceso a otras redes externas tales como redes privadas virtuales o Internet. Este protocolo sería usado en entornos tales como aeropuertos La actualización de las tablas de enrutamiento de todos los equipos se conseguirá mediante la transmisión periódica de mensajes de control y así finalmente se podrá permitir conectividad entre todos los equipos y con las correspondientes redes externas. Para el estudio del protocolo OLSR contaremos con el simulador de redes Network Simulator 2, un simulador de redes freeware programado en C++ basado en eventos discretos. Este simulador es usado principalmente en ambientes educativos y de investigación y permite la simulación tanto de protocolos unicast como multicast. El campo donde más se utiliza es precisamente en el de la investigación de redes móviles Ad-hoc. El simulador Network Simulator 2 no sólo implementa el protocolo OLSR, sino que éste implementa una amplia gama de protocolos, tanto de redes cableadas como de redes inalámbricas, lo cual va a sernos de gran utilidad para proceder a la simulación de distintas configuraciones de redes y protocolos. En el presente Proyecto de Fin de Carrera se estudiarán también diversas simulaciones con el simulador NS2 en diferentes escenarios con diversas configuraciones; redes cableadas, redes inalámbricas Ad-hoc, donde se estudiará el protocolo antes mencionado: OLSR. Este Proyecto de Fin de Carrera consta de cuatro apartados distintos: Primeramente se realizará el estudio completo del protocolo OLSR, se verán los beneficios y contrapartidas que ofrece este protocolo inalámbrico. También se verán los distintos tipos de mensajes existentes en este protocolo y unos pequeños ejemplos del funcionamiento del protocolo OLSR. Seguidamente se hará una pequeña introducción al simulador de redes Network Simulator 2, veremos la historia de este simulador, y también se hará referencia a la herramienta extra NAM, la cual nos permitirá visualizar el intercambio de paquetes que se produce entre los diferentes dispositivos de nuestras simulaciones de forma intuitiva y amigable. Se hará mención a la plataforma MASIMUM, encargada de facilitar en un entorno académico software y documentación a sus alumnos con el fin de facilitarles la investigación y la simulación de redes y sensores Ad-hoc. Finalmente se verán dos ejemplos, uno en el que se realizará una simulación entre dos PCs en un entorno Ethernet y otro ejemplo en el que se realizará una simulación inalámbrica entre cinco dispositivos móviles mediante el protocolo a estudiar, OLSR.

Reduction in the level of Gal(alpha1,3)Gal in transgenic mice and pigs by the expression of an alpha(1,2)fucosyltransferase.

Hyperacute rejection of a porcine organ by higher primates is initiated by the binding of xenoreactive natural antibodies of the recipient to blood vessels in the graft leading to complement activation. The majority of these antibodies recognize the carbohydrate structure Gal(alphal,3)Gal (gal epitope) present on cells of pigs. It is possible that the removal or lowering of the number of gal epitopes on the graft endothelium could prevent hyperacute rejection. The Gal(alpha1,3) Gal structure is formed by the enzyme Galbeta1,4GlcNAc3-alpha-D-galactosyltransferase [alpha(1,3)GT; EC 2.4.1.51], which transfers a galactose molecule to terminal N-acetyllactosamine (N-lac) present on various glycoproteins and glycolipids. The N-lac structure might be utilized as an acceptor by other glycosyltransferases such as Galbeta1,4GlcNAc 6-alpha-D-sialyltransferase [alpha(2,6)ST], Galbeta1,4GlcNAc 3-alpha-D-Sialyltransferase [alpha(2,3)ST], or Galbeta 2-alpha-L-fucosyltransferase [alpha(1,2)FT; EC 2.4.1.691, etc. In this report we describe the competition between alpha(1,2)FT and alpha(1,3)GT in cells in culture and the generation of transgenic mice and transgenic pigs that express alpha(1,2)Fr leading to synthesis of Fucalpha,2Galbeta- (H antigen) and a concomitant decrease in the level of Gal(alpha1,3)Gal. As predicted, this resulted in reduced binding of xenoreactive natural antibodies to endothelial cells of transgenic mice and protection from complement mediated lysis.

Análisis del modelo RFM según el método convencional y el método de las 2-Tuplas

En el siguiente Trabajo de Fin de Máster se pone en práctica la Minería de Datos (Data Mining), llevando a cabo una investigación de CRM (Customer Relationship Management) en la cual se analizan los comportamientos de compra de los clientes de una empresa que comercializa solo por internet (online). Este negocio es de origen español y mediante estos análisis podremos saber principalmente cuántos tipos de clientes posee y cómo son sus hábitos de compra para poder clasificarlos. Para ello, utilizaremos la segmentación RFM (Recency, Frequency, Monetary) que la calcularemos mediante dos metodologías muy importantes que son el Método Convencional y el Método de las 2-Tuplas. En el primer método realizaremos una clasificación numérica mediante quintiles que se numerarán de 1 a 5 tanto para la Recencia, la Frecuencia y el Valor Monetario, con los que podremos determinar el comportamiento de compra de cada cliente. En el segundo método veremos otra clasificación de los clientes más precisa, más detallada y con la ventaja que ofrece un valor lingüístico para poder entender mejor a que cluster pertenece cada cliente. Finalmente, realizaremos unos análisis de clusters con el método de “K-medias” con diferentes segmentos (entre 5 y 7 segmentos) que nos permitirán distinguir cuántos tipos de clientes tiene este negocio y cómo son con respecto a su hábito de compra. Todo esto con el fin de dar respuesta a este negocio sobre cómo es el comportamiento de compra de cada cliente, cuáles son los más importantes, cuáles son los menos importantes, cuántos han dejado de comprar, etc.

An accurate distance scale to the extremely massive cluster Stephenson 2

Discoveries during the last two years have revealed the existence of a vast region of star formation close to the base of the Scutum Arm, where at least five clusters of red supergiants have been found. In order to understand the nature of this region, we need to determine accurate distances to the clusters. We present here the first results of an ongoing program to derive fundamental parameters (such as age, distance, etc.) to the massive cluster Stephenson 2 studying for the first time its main sequence stars.
