This paper develops an analytic model for self shadowing and local illumination of rough surfaces. The surface is assumed homogeneous, isotropic, and smooth microscopically, with ...
We present Galileo, an innovative engineering modeling and analysis tool built using an approach we call packageoriented programming (POP). Galileo represents an ongoing evaluatio...
As disk arrays become widely used, tools for understanding and analyzing their performance become increasingly important. In particular, performance models can be invaluable in bo...
One approach to modeling structured discrete data is to describe the probability of states via an energy function and Gibbs distribution. A recurring difficulty in these models is...

Following the work of Hurvich, Shumway, and Tsai (1990), we propose an "improved" variant of the Akaike information criterion, AICi, for state-space model selection. The...
