Consider training across warfare specialties and missions; Conduct research to provide a solid foundation of knowledge requirements for a web fires fleet concept; Complete a gap analysis by comparing current fleet training with the required training to leverage cross domain and cross-platform capabilities in a warfighting environment; Scan for current examples of cross-domain training and current training simulation from DoD and industry; Develop a system architecture addressing responsible command, training requirements, training and exercise venues, and training participants to fill discovered gaps in meeting the knowledge requirements; Assess the proposed system against the principles of high velocity learning found in the CNO's "A Design for Maintaining Maritime SuperiorityNPS CRUSE
DRFM CORDIC processor and sea clutter modeling for enhancing structured false target synthesis
No full textIn this thesis, we investigate two critical components of a digital-image synthesizer electronic warfare architecture that can be used to infuse false targets into high-range resolution profiling radars. The first investigation encompasses the design of an in-phase and quadrature (I/Q) converter based on a CORDIC (Coordinate Rotation Digital Computer) algorithm. Mathematical modeling is used to examine the accuracy of converting a digitized radar signal I/Q sample into a corresponding five-bit binary phase angle. Results obtained from MATLAB show that 18 CORDIC iterations are required to achieve accuracy at 5.625˚. The resulting design was implemented using the Verilog hardware description language. The second investigation concerns generating sea clutter to impose on the false target. The mean-power return of the sea clutter is calculated using the average power of the radar-cross section derived from the Naval Research Laboratory sea clutter model. The modulation coefficients for the sea clutter were generated using the fluctuating power returns and Doppler spectra generated using a random KA distribution. The coefficients for several sea states were generated using MATLAB. Results show that the correct sea clutter model can effectively add realism to the false target image.Approved for public release; distribution is unlimited.Military Expert 5, Republic of Singapore Air Forcehttp://archive.org/details/drfmcordicproces109455615
Chinese literary works translated into Baba Malay: a bibliographical study
No full textAnalyses 68 unique titles of Baba translated works published between 1889 and 1950. The titles are held in the libraries of the University of Malaya (UM), Science University Malaysia (USM), National University of Malaysia (UKM), the Dewan Bahasa dan Pustaka (DBP), National University of Singapore (NUS), National Library of Singapore (NLS) and the British Library (BL). The results reveal three periods of active publication of Baba translated works. A total of 18 works were translated before World War I, followed by 10 just after the war, 39 titles were published before the break of the World War II and 1 was identified in 1950. There were 103 persons involved in the 68 translated works, some of whom are responsible for more than one title. The most prominent translators were Chan Kim Boon, Wan Boon Seng, Seow Chin San and Lee Seng Poh. Some of the translators were also be editors, illustrators or editors. There were 31 publishers and 21 printing presses involved, all were located in Singapore. The most active publishers were Wan Boon Seng, Kim Seck Chy Press and Nanyang Romanised Malay Book Co. The translated works mainly cover historical classical Chinese stories, chivalrous stories, romances, folklore and legends. The titles were priced between 10 cents to 2 dollars in Straits currency. The University of Malaya Library held the largest number of unique title (62) out of which 15 were unique titles

Lumped-Parameter Modelling of Cardiovascular System Dynamics under Different Healthy and Diseased Conditions
No full textCardiovascular disease is the most common cause of death in the modern society, and research into the diagnosis and treatment of cardiovascular diseases is an urgent task. Lumped-parameter mathematical modelling as an efficient and effective research technique has been extensively applied in the cardiovascular dynamics research, and has achieved enormous success in assisting the cardiovascular physiology study. This thesis reports a coherent work of lumped-parameter cardiovascular modelling based on some selected works that the author has conducted and published in the past several years. After a critical and comprehensive review of the concurrent lumped-parameter modelling technique, an improved lumped-parameter model that effectively describes the important cardiovascular features of heart valve dynamics and atrial-ventricular septum motion is presented. The model is then adapted to study several application cases of typical heart failure condition with ventricular assist device support, and extension of the lumped-parameter modelling for the optimisation of a pulsatile bioreactor in cardiovascular tissue engineering study. Some on-going works and future directions are also introduced. The reported modelling studies are useful for the cardiovascular physiology research and design optimisation of cardiovascular prosthetic organs
Prevalence of visual impairment and severity of diabetic retinopathy in various ethnic groups in the UK
No full textDiabetic Retinopathy (DR) is a leading cause of visual impairment (VI) in the working population. Minor ethnic groups are at increased risk of diabetes. Diabetic Retinopathy In Various Ethnic groups in the United Kingdom (DRIVE UK) is a cross-sectional study to estimate the prevalence of DR, VI and associated risk factors for sight threatening diabetic retinopathy (STDR) in Afro-Caribbeans (AC) and South Asians (SA) compared to Caucasians. People with diabetes in two regions in the United Kingdom who were screened and/or treated for DR from September 2008 to September 2009 were included in this study. VI and severe visual impairment (SVI) were defined as Snellen visual acuity of ≤ 6/18 and ≤ 6/60 respectively. DR was graded according to National Screening Committee (NSC) for diabetes guidelines UK.
There were 57,144 people on the diabetic register, of which retinopathy data was available from 50,285 (88.1%) subjects (type 1 n=3,323, type 2 n=46,962). In type 1 and type 2 diabetes, any DR was detected in 53.1%, 39.5%, diabetic maculopathy in 13.1%, 8.4% and STDR in 9.91%, 4.0% of people respectively. STDR was significantly more prevalent in the SA (10.3%) and AC (11.5%) populations compared to Caucasians (5.5%). Overall VI was significantly higher in the ethnic minority population. A total of 7.5% (95% CI 7.3, 7.8) people with diabetes were not eligible for driving based on their visual acuity, 3.4% (95% CI 3.2, 3.5) were classified as VI and 0.4% (95% CI 0.33, 0.44) as SVI. Risk factors for STDR were found to include longer duration of diabetes and higher mean HbA1c.
This study provides information that could be used to help develop future service frameworks and guidelines for local health bodies responsible for delivery of end userservices. The study also supports the need to explore the role of inflammatory, genetic and epigenetic factors as markers for ethnic differences in DR and potential treatment avenues for diabetic retinopathy

Fachkatalog Neuguinea / Stadt- und Universitätsbibliothek Frankfurt am Main
No full textAus Anlaß des Kongresses der "Deutsch-Pazifischen Gesellschaft" im Juni 1981 in Düsseldorf legt die Stadt- und Universitätsbibliothek Frankfuxt am Main ein Verzeichnis ihrer Bestände zum Raum "Neuguinea" vor . Dabei umfaßt der Katalog sowohl die Literatur zu "Papua-Neuguinea" (Niugini)" als auch zur indonesischen Provinz "West-Irian (Irian Jaya)". Aus Gründen des geographischen Zusammenhangs werden in einem Anhang allgemeine Publikationen zum Raum Melanesien in den Katalog aufgenommen. Die gezielte Sammlung der Literatur zu diesem Raum ist ein Ergebnis der Zuweisung des Sondersarnmelgebietes "Ozeanian" durch die Deutsche Forschungagemeinschaft an die Frankfurter Stadt- und Univeraitätsbibliothek. Dabei liegt der Schwerpunkt auf der Sammlung historischer und ethnologischer Literatur. Grundlage des Katalogausdruckes ist der Länderteil des Sachkataloges der Bibliothek, der nach feststehenden Länderkennziffern, Fachgruppen und Schlüsselnummern gegliedert ist. Unter jeder Schlüsselnummer sind die Eintragungen chronologisch geordnet. Auf jeder Titelkarte befindet sich rechts oben die Signatur, unter der das Buch über Fernleihe bei der Stadt- und Universitätsbibliothek Frankfurt am Main bestellt werden kann
