Product Description
Designed to put the reader in touch with the main communications media and information sources in 10 of the more ythen 40 minority-language groups within the European Community: Asturian, Corsican, German in Belgium, Alsace-Lorraine and South Tyrol, French and Francprovencal in Vallee d'Aoste, Friulan, Galician, Ladin and Sorbian. Ecah unity starts with an overview of the language and of the media in that language. This is followed by some 20-30 entries for each language-group. Each entry includes name and address, phone and fax numbers and a full description of the institutions concerned - radio and television stations, newspapers and magazines, publishers, major libraries and bookshops. The guide is aimed at enabling the minorities to communicate with each other and foster contact between the majorities and minorities in the European regions. The research was carried out by a team at the Mercator Media Centre at Aberystwyth which is part of the Mercator Network of documentation centres funded by the European Commission with the support of the European Bureau for Lesser-Used Languages. ...

Product Description
This is a NAVAL POSTGRADUATE SCHOOL MONTEREY CA report procured by the Pentagon and made available for public release. It has been reproduced in the best form available to the Pentagon. It is not spiral-bound, but rather assembled with Velobinding in a soft, white linen cover. The Storming Media report number is A226104. The abstract provided by the Pentagon follows: The United States Navy's next generation ship(s) scheduled for commissioning in the year 2004 and beyond will integrate tactical shipboard voice communications system into the local area network (LAN). A single network eliminates separate voice and data infrastructures, consolidates services, and reduces the cost of communications. The existing installation of high-speed shipboard data networks has laid the foundation for the convergence of these two technologies. Currently, there is no high level definition of how multiple system types will share a common infrastructure. Neither is there a baseline defining acceptable end-to-end standards for the merger of these two systems. Common practice for demonstrating feasibility is confined to using commercial- off-the-shelf (COTS) equipment in a show- and-tell environment. Although this indicates certain operational features it does not demonstrate if telephony system's performance are within specified limits. Neither does this type of demonstration simulate realistic shipboard tactical load performance requirements or what effect this integration will have on data systems that co- habitat the LAN. The purpose of this thesis is to define the convergence of the centralized shipboard tactical voice communication communications system into a distributed software-based system and the minimum set of acceptable software requirements for full integration of this system into the existing shipboard local area network infrastructure. ...

This is a NAVAL POSTGRADUATE SCHOOL MONTEREY CA report procured by the Pentagon and made available for public release. It has been reproduced in the best form available to the Pentagon. It is not spiral-bound, but rather assembled with Velobinding in a soft, white linen cover. The Storming Media report number is A969583. The abstract provided by the Pentagon follows: Due to a shift in the interest in wireless applications, from outdoor to indoor environments. new modelling solutions had to be designed to account for the immense complexity of the latter. Essentially, two categories of indoor propagation models prevailed until the mid-9O's: the Empirical and the Physical models. They both predicted important characteristics of a given confined environment like the coverage area, transmitted power requirements. number and location of base stations or access points. The implementation of wireless communications systems onboard naval assets is expected to offer numerous advantages and enhance the existing shipboard communications systems. That, in turn, calls for a reliable and cost-effective means of estimating the expected link budget in such environments, especially when the infrastructure in question is yet to be built, as is the case in a ship class under development. This thesis treats the problem of indoor propagation modeling using the Numerical Electromagnetic Code-Basic Scattering Code (NEC-BSC) and compares the predicted results obtained by this code with actual measurements performed inside a building at the Naval Postgraduate School. A number of important conclusions regarding the validity of NEC-BSC for indoor applications are being reached and some intriguing statistical results are being presented. ... Read more

It is not spiral-bound, but rather assembled with Velobinding in a soft, white linen cover. The Storming Media report number is A838093. The abstract provided by the Pentagon follows: A physical understanding and consequent mathematical modeling of RF energy in naval indoor environments is of vital importance to the usability and effectiveness of communication systems used by Navy. Over the last few years, there is a growing interest in placing Wireless Local Area Networks (WLANs) in ships and submarines. Especially large ships yet to be constructed, are designed with increased electronic systems but limited personnel. Reliable electronic systems will be crucial for efficient ship operation and survivability. This thesis investigates the feasibility of deploying a physical model called Numerical Electromagnetic Code-Basic Scattering Code (NEC-BSC) to simulate confined naval compartments in the 2.4 GHz Industrial Scientific Medical (ISM) band. More specifically, using NEC-BSC the coverage area, the number and positions of transmitters and observation points and the statistics of Radio Frequency (RF) signal distribution were described. The area specifically targeted for this research was a typical two-story missile room. Additionally, some important conclusions regarding the validity of NEC-BSC for indoor applications are presented and some recommendations for future research are provided. ... Read more

This is a AIR FORCE INST OF TECH WRIGHT-PATTERSON AFB OH report procured by the Pentagon and made available for public release. It has been reproduced in the best form available to the Pentagon. It is not spiral-bound, but rather assembled with Velobinding in a soft, white linen cover. The Storming Media report number is A842113. The abstract provided by the Pentagon follows: Gradient index thin films provide greater flexibility for the design of optical coatings than the more conventional 'layer' films. In addition, gradient index films have higher damage thresholds and better adhesion properties. This dissertation presents an enhancement to the existing inverse Fourier transform gradient index design method, and develops a new optimal design method for gradient index films using a generalized Fourier series approach. The inverse Fourier transform method is modified to include use of the phase of the index profile as a variable in rugate filter design. Use of an optimal phase function in Fourier-based filter designs reduces the product of index contrast and thickness for desired reflectance spectra. The shape of the reflectance spectrum is recovered with greater fidelity by suppression of Gibbs oscillations and shifting of side-lobes into desired wavelength regions. A new method of gradient index thin film design using generalized Fourier series extends the domain of problems for which gradient index solutions can be found. The method is analogous to existing techniques for layer based coating design, but adds the flexibility of gradient index films. A subset of the coefficients of a generalized Fourier series representation of the gradient index of refraction profile are used as variables in a nonlinear constrained optimization formulation. The optimal values of the design coefficients are determined using a sequential quadratic programming algorithm. ... Read more
