Yang, Haori | Digital spectroscopy systems for high rate events in active interrogation applications | Abstract- Two digital spectroscopy systems have been developed to handle high rate events in active interrogation applications. In the first system, signal from a PMT is directly digitized by a digitizer and then processed on a PC offline, using deconvolution method. By bypassing the preamplifier, ... | 2007 | |

Stoller, Leigh B. | Direct deposit: a basic user-level protocol for carpet clusters? | This note describes the Direct Deposit Protocol (DDP), a simple protocol for multicomputing on a carpet cluster. This protocol is an example of a user-level protocol to be layered on top of the low-level, sender-based protocols for the Protocol Processing Engine. The protocol will be described in te... | Direct Deposit Protocol; DDP; Carpet clusters; Multicomputing; User-level protocol | 1995 |

Horch, Kenneth W.; Dhillon, Gurpreet S. | Direct neural sensory feedback and control of a prosthetic arm | Evidence indicates that user acceptance of modern artificial limbs by amputees would be significantly enhanced by a system that provides appropriate, graded, distally referred sensations of touch and joint movement, and that the functionality of limb prostheses would be improved by a more natural co... | Peripheral Nerve Implant; Prosthetic Limb Control; Sensory Feedback | 2005-12 |

Shirley, Peter S. | Direct Ray tracing of smoothed and displacement mapped triangles | We present an algorithm for ray tracing displacement maps that requires no additional storage over the base model. Displacement maps are rarely used in ray tracing due to the cost associated with storing and intersecting the displaced geometry. This is unfortunate because displacement maps allow the... | Ray tracing displacement maps | 2000 |

Mcpherson, Brian James | Direct simulation of fluid-solid mechanics in porous media using the discrete element and lattice-Boltzmann methods | A detailed understanding of the coupling between fluid and solid mechanics is important for understanding many processes in Earth sciences. Numerical models are a popular means for exploring these processes, but most models do not adequately handle all aspects of this coupling. This paper presents ... | 2007 | |

Stringfellow, Gerald B. | Dislocations in GaAs17-xPx | Dislocations, their origins, and their effects on photoluminescence efficiency have been studied in GaAs1-xPx single crystals grown by vapor phase epitaxy. Dislocations were observed using etch pit, optical-transmission microscopy, and x-ray topography techniques. Two types of dislocations are grown... | Photoluminescence efficiency; Growth mechanism; Optical transmission microscopy | 1969 |

Christensen, Douglas A. | Dispersion effects in fiber optic interferometry | An extended analysis of the effects of uncompensated fiber dispersion on the fringe visibility of a fiber optic interferometer is developed, with particular emphasis on stellar interferometry. Both material and waveguide dispersion for single-mode, polarization-preserving fibers are considered. It... | Stellar interferometry; Fiber optics; Statistical optics | 1997 |

Peterson, John W. | Distributed computation for computer animation | Computer animation is a very computationally intensive task. Recent developments in image synthesis, such as shadows, reflections and motion blur enhance the quality of computer animation, but also dramatically increase the amount of CPU time needed to do it. Fortunately, the computations involved w... | Distributed computation | 1987 |

Thompson, William B.; Willemsen, Peter; Gooch, Amy A.; Creem-Regehr, Sarah Hope | Does the quality of the computer graphics matter when judging distances in visually immersive environments? | In the real world, people are quite accurate judging distances to locations in the environment, at least for targets resting on the ground plane and distances out to about 20m. Distance judgments in visually immersive environments are much less accurate. Several studies have now shown that in vis... | Visually immersive environments | 2002-12-05 |

Riloff, Ellen M. | Domain-specific coreference resolution with lexicalized features | Most coreference resolvers rely heavily on string matching, syntactic properties, and semantic attributes of words, but they lack the ability to make decisions based on individual words. In this paper, we explore the benefits of lexicalized features in the setting of domain-specific coreference reso... | 2014-01-01 | |

Furse, Cynthia M. | Down to the wire | As today's military and commercial aircraft age past their teen years, the many kilometers of wiring buried deep within their structures begin to crack and fray. Once thought to be rare and benign, such faults are found by the hundreds in a typical aircraft.

Lepreau, Jay | DRAFT: work in progress - - - comments solicited evolving Mach 3.0 to use migrating threads | Like most operating systems, Mach 3.0 views threads as statically associated with a single task. An alternative model is that of migrating threads, in which a single thread abstraction moves between tasks with the logical flow of control, and "server" code is passively executed. We have compatibly r... | DRAFT | 1993 |
