JMS is an API specification that defines a standard way for Java applications to access messaging services. All JMS products promise good performance and to properly support the QoS attributes specified in the standard, making it hard to choose between them. Customers who want to determine which JMS product best meets their requirements need a simple, effective and fair methodology for evaluating and comparing competing implementations. This paper presents an empirical methodology for evaluating the QoS implementation of a JMS product. We present a number of test scenarios and define metrics for measuring performance and message persistence. We then illustrate this methodology by using it to evaluate two leading JMS products. Our evaluation results show differences between these products in terms of their overall performance and the impact of various QoS attributes. The case study demonstrates that our empirical methodology is an effective and practical way to test the performance of JMS and other messaging systems.

The compressive sensing (CS) framework aims to ease the burden on analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) by exploiting inherent structure in natural and man-made signals. It has been demon-strated that structured signals can be acquired with just a small number of linear measurements, on the order of the signal complexity. In practice, this enables lower sampling rates that can be more easily achieved by current hardware designs. The primary bottleneck that limits ADC sam-pling rates is quantization, i.e., higher bit-depths impose lower sampling rates. Thus, the decreased sampling rates of CS ADCs accommodate the otherwise limiting quantizer of conventional ADCs. In this thesis, we consider a different approach to CS ADC by shifting towards lower quantizer bit-depths rather than lower sampling rates. We explore the extreme case where each measurement is quantized to just one bit, representing its sign. We develop a new theoretical framework to analyze this extreme case and develop new algorithms for signal reconstruction from such coarsely quantized measurements. The 1-bit CS framework leads us to scenarios where it may be more appropriate to reduce bit-depth instead of sampling rate. We find that there exist two distinct regimes of operation that correspond to high/low signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). In the measurement

Abstract. We give a new proof of regularity of biharmonic maps from four-dimensional domains into spheres, showing first that the biharmonic map system is equivalent to a set of bilinear identities in divergence form. The method of reverse Hölder inequalities is used next to prove continuity of solutions and higher integrability of their second order derivatives. As a byproduct, we also prove that a weak limit of biharmonic maps into a sphere is again bihar-monic. The proof of regularity can be adapted to biharmonic maps on the Heisenberg group, and to other functionals leading to fourth order elliptic equations with critical nonlinearities in lower order derivatives.
