GPS technology has been embedded into portable, low-cost electronic devices nowadays to track the movements of mobile objects. This implication has greatly impacted the transportation field by creating a novel and rich source of traffic data on the road network. Although the promise offered by GPS devices to overcome problems like underreporting, respondent fatigue, inaccuracies and other human errors in data collection is significant; the technology is still relatively new that it raises many issues for potential users. These issues tend to revolve around the following areas: reliability, data processing and the related application. This thesis aims to study the GPS tracking form the methodological, technical and practical aspects. It first evaluates the reliability of GPS based traffic data based on data from an experiment containing three different traffic modes (car, bike and bus) traveling along the road network. It then outline the general procedure for processing GPS tracking data and discuss related issues that are uncovered by using real-world GPS tracking data of 316 cars. Thirdly, it investigates the influence of road network density in finding optimal location for enhancing travel efficiency and decreasing travel cost. The results show that the geographical positioning is reliable. Velocity is slightly underestimated, whereas altitude measurements are unreliable.Post processing techniques with auxiliary information is found necessary and important when solving the inaccuracy of GPS data. The densities of the road network influence the finding of optimal locations. The influence will stabilize at a certain level and do not deteriorate when the node density is higher.

The advancement of GPS technology enables GPS devices not only to be used as orientation and navigation tools, but also to track travelled routes. GPS tracking data provides essential information for a broad range of urban planning applications such as transportation routing and planning, traffic management and environmental control. This paper describes on processing the data that was collected by tracking the cars of 316 volunteers over a seven-week period. The detailed information is extracted. The processed data is further connected to the underlying road network by means of maps. Geographical maps are applied to check how the car-movements match the road network. The maps capture the complexity of the car-movements in the urban area. The results show that 90% of the trips on the plane match the road network within a tolerance.

Existing distributed hydrologic models are complex and computationally demanding for using as a rapid-forecasting policy-decision tool, or even as a class-room educational tool. In addition, platform dependence, specific input/output data structures and non-dynamic data-interaction with pluggable software components inside the existing proprietary frameworks make these models restrictive only to the specialized user groups. RWater is a web-based hydrologic analysis and modeling framework that utilizes the commonly used R software within the HUBzero cyber infrastructure of Purdue University. RWater is designed as an integrated framework for distributed hydrologic simulation, along with subsequent parameter optimization and visualization schemes. RWater provides platform independent web-based interface, flexible data integration capacity, grid-based simulations, and user-extensibility. RWater uses RStudio to simulate hydrologic processes on raster based data obtained through conventional GIS pre-processing. The program integrates Shuffled Complex Evolution (SCE) algorithm for parameter optimization. Moreover, RWater enables users to produce different descriptive statistics and visualization of the outputs at different temporal resolutions. The applicability of RWater will be demonstrated by application on two watersheds in Indiana for multiple rainfall events.

Until mid 2006, SCIAMACHY data processors for the operational retrieval of nitrogen dioxide (NO2) column data were based on the historical version 2 of the GOME Data Processor (GDP). On top of known problems inherent to GDP 2, ground-based validations of SCIAMACHY NO2 data revealed issues specific to SCIAMACHY, like a large cloud-dependent offset occurring at Northern latitudes. In 2006, the GDOAS prototype algorithm of the improved GDP version 4 was transferred to the off-line SCIAMACHY Ground Processor (SGP) version 3.0. In parallel, the calibration of SCIAMACHY radiometric data was upgraded. Before operational switch-on of SGP 3.0 and public release of upgraded SCIAMACHY NO2 data, we have investigated the accuracy of the algorithm transfer: (a) by checking the consistency of SGP 3.0 with prototype algorithms; and (b) by comparing SGP 3.0 NO2 data with ground-based observations reported by the WMO/GAW NDACC network of UV-visible DOAS/SAOZ spectrometers. This delta-validation study concludes that SGP 3.0 is a significant improvement with respect to the previous processor IPF 5.04. For three particular SCIAMACHY states, the study reveals unexplained features in the slant columns and air mass factors, although the quantitative impact on SGP 3.0 vertical columns is not significant.

The CMS Collaboration conducted a month-long data taking exercise, the Cosmic Run At Four Tesla, during October-November 2008, with the goal of commissioning the experiment for extended operation. With all installed detector systems participating, CMS recorded 270 million cosmic ray events with the solenoid at a magnetic field strength of 3.8 T. This paper describes the data flow from the detector through the various online and offline computing systems, as well as the workflows used for recording the data, for aligning and calibrating the detector, and for analysis of the data. © 2010 IOP Publishing Ltd and SISSA.

Nowadays, L1 SBAS signals can be used in a combined GPS+SBAS data processing. However, such situation restricts the studies over short baselines. Besides of increasing the satellite availability, SBAS satellites orbit configuration is different from that of GPS. In order to analyze how these characteristics can impact GPS positioning in the southeast area of Brazil, experiments involving GPS-only and combined GPS+SBAS data were performed. Solutions using single point and relative positioning were computed to show the impact over satellite geometry, positioning accuracy and short baseline ambiguity resolution. Results showed that the inclusion of SBAS satellites can improve the accuracy of positioning. Nevertheless, the bad quality of the data broadcasted by these satellites limits their usage. © Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2012.

Este artigo apresenta um estudo experimental de técnicas de identificação paramétrica aplicadas à modelagem dinâmica de um servidor web Apache. Foi desenvolvido um arranjo experimental para simular variações de carga no servidor. O arranjo é composto por dois computadores PC, sendo um deles utilizado para executar o servidor Apache e o outro utilizado como um gerador de carga, solicitando requisições de serviço ao servidor Apache. Foram estimados modelos paramétricos auto-regressivos (AR) para diferentes pontos de operação e de condição de carga. Cada ponto de operação foi definido em termos dos valores médios para o parâmetro de entrada MaxClients (parâmetro utilizado para definir o número máximo de processos ativos) e a saída percentual de consumo de CPU (Central Processing Unit) do servidor Apache. Para cada ponto de operação foram coletadas 600 amostras, com um intervalo de amostragem de 5 segundos. Metade do conjunto de amostras coletadas em cada ponto de operação foi utilizada para estimação do modelo, enquanto que a outra metade foi utilizada para validação. Um estudo da ordem mais adequada do modelo mostrou que, para um ponto de operação com valor reduzido de MaxClients, um modelo AR de 7a ordem pode ser satisfatório. Para valores mais elevados de MaxClients, os resultados mostraram que são necessários modelos de ordem mais elevada, devido às não-linearidades inerentes ao sistema.

Este trabalho apresenta um método rápido de inversão de matrizes densas, e uma possível aplicação com métodos de Vectoring, em pré-codificação e cancelamento de crosstalk de sistemas xDSL. A família de tecnologias xDSL utiliza os pares trançados de fios de cobre telefônicos como meio físico para transmitir dados digitais. O crosstalk é a principal causa de degradação de sinais na mais nova geração de sistemas xDSL, o G.fast, e para combatê-lo são utilizadas técnicas de pré-codificação e cancelamento, chamadas de Vectoring. O método proposto, chamado de GSGR, consiste em uma abordagem diferente para o método clássico de Squared Givens Rotations (SGR), adequado a implementações em plataformas embarcadas de processamento digital de sinais. Foram realizados testes comparativos do método GSGR com métodos diretos clássicos de inversão, utilizando uma plataforma digital multicore baseada no chip TI DSP TMS320C6670 e a plataforma de software Matlab. Os resultados dos testes de inversão de matrizes usando dados reais e dados simulados mostraram que o GSGR foi superior em velocidade de execução sem apresentar perdas significativas de acurácia para a aplicação em sistemas xDSL.
