    摘要: A system includes a first gas sensor [110] to detect a first concentration of a predetermined gas and to determine a first rate of change in the first concentration over a time interval. A second gas sensor [115] detects a second concentration of the predetermined gas and determines a second rate of change in the second concentration over the time interval. A third gas sensor [120] detects a third concentration of the predetermined gas and determines a third rate of change in the third concentration over the time interval. The first, second, and third gas sensors each have a known location. At least one processing device [510] (a) determines respective distances between a gas leak location and the respective locations of the gas sensors based on the detected rates of change, and (b) calculates a location of the gas leak based on a triangulation of the first distance, the second distance, and the third distance.

    摘要: A method for scheduling a computation for execution on a computer with a number of interconnected functional units. The computation is representable by a data-flow graph with a number of nodes connected by edge. A loop-period of the computation is calculated and the nodes are scheduled for throughput by assigning an execution cycle and a functional unit to each node of the data-flow graph. The scheduling of flexible nodes is adjusted to minimize the number of interconnections required in each execution cycle. The edges of the data-flow graph are allocated to one or more of the interconnections between functional units. The scheduling method may be used, for example, to optimize the interconnection fabric design for an ASIC or as part of a compiler for a re-configurable streaming vector processor.

A source instruction is generated for each input of the data-flow graph, a computational instruction is generated for each node of the data-flow graph, and a sink instruction is generated for each output of the data-flow graph. The computational instruction for a node includes a descriptor of an operation performed at the node and a descriptor of each instruction that produces an input to the node. The formatted description is a sequential instruction list comprising source instructions, computational instructions and sink instructions. Each instruction has an instruction identifier and the descriptor of each instruction that produces an input to the node is the instruction identifier. The computer is directed by a program of instructions to implement a computation representable by a data-flow graph.

    摘要: A method and apparatus for allocating resources to a node in an ad-hoc communication system is provided herein. During operation, nodes of the system will receive resource allocations from their parent node. The resource allocation comprises a portion of available resources that may vary in size. Each node will determine the resource needs for its children nodes only and then dynamically assign resources to them. The resources assigned to the children nodes comprise a portion of the resources assigned to the node by its parent node. Additionally, knowledge as to how the children further allocate resources to their own children is not known by the parent, however, the children nodes must allocate a portion of their resource to their children nodes.

    摘要: During operation, a node (104) will determine a particular probability of achieving a successful location. When battery resources are below a threshold the node will utilize a minimum probability for success in determining how many time-slots to collect RSSI measurements. However, if battery resources are above the threshold, a higher probability of achieving a successful location than the minimum may be utilized. After the particular probability of achieving a successful location is determined, a number of time-slots (L) are determined. L comprises a number of time slots that the node must remain awake for to achieve the particular probability of achieving a successful location. The node will then remain awake for L time slots, and compute a location based on measurements taken within those L time slots.
