1 Warner, Homer R.A Computer-Directed Patient History: Functional Overview and Initial ExperienceBiomedical Informatics1986
2 Henderson, Thomas C.A survey of dextrous manipulationThe development of mechanical end effectors capable of dextrous manipulation is a rapidly growing and quite successful field of research. It has in some sense put the focus on control issues, in particular, how to control these remarkably humanlike manipulators to perform the deft movement that we t...Dextrous manipulation1986
3 Henderson, Thomas C.A systolic array implementation of discrete relaxation algorithmDiscrete Relaxation techniques have proven useful in solving a wide range of problems in digital signal processing, artificial intelligence, machine vision, and VLSI engineering, etc. A conventional hardware design for an 8-label 8-object Discrete Relaxation Algorithm (DRA) requires three 4K memory...Discrete Relaxation algorithm; Systolic array1986
4 Carter, Tony M.Ada-to-silicon compiler study (Final Report 30 Jan 85 - 30 Jun 86)The vision of a system design environment in which both hardware and software components could be designed, tested, and executed was proffered by the late Dr. Elliott Organick1 in 1981. He was impressed by the objectiveness of Ada and the availability of an architecture (the Intel 432) which was sp...ADA language1986
5 Henderson, Thomas C.An O(n) time discrete relaxation architecture for real-time processing of the consistent labeling problemDiscrete relaxation techniques have proven useful in solving a wide range of problems in digital signal and digital image processing, artificial intelligence, operations research, and machine vision. Much work has been devoted to finding efficient hardware architectures. This paper shows that a conv...Discrete relaxation techniques1986

7 Pershing, David W.Bench and pilot scale process evaluation of reburning for in-furnace NOx reductionThis paper describes a combined experimental and theoretical study which was undertaken to quantify the impact of fuel and process parameters on reburning effectiveness and provide the scaling information required for commercial application of reburning under highly varied industrial conditions. Ini...Reburning; Nitrogen oxides reduction; Staged fuel injection1986
8 Armentrout, Peter B.C+(2P) + H2(D2,HD)→CH+(CD+) + H(D). I. Reaction cross sections and kinetic isotope effects from threshold to 15 eV c.m.Total cross sections for the reactions of carbon (1 + ) ions with isotopic molecular hydrogen (H2, D2 , and HD) to form methyliumylidene (CH+ and C D + ) have been measured using guided ion beam techniques. Cross sections are reported as a function of the translational energy of the reactants fro...Ion-molecule reactions; Isotope effects; Translational energy; Threshold behavior; Endothermic reactions1986

10 Hansen, Charles D.; Henderson, Thomas C.CAGD based 3-D visual recognitionA coherent automated manufacturing system needs to include CAD/CAM, computer vision, and object manipulation. Currently, most systems which support CAD/CAM do not provide for vision or manipulation and similarly, vision and manipulation systems incorporate no explicit relation to CAD/CAM models. CAD...Visual recognition; Computer Aided Geometric Design (CAGD)1986
11 Olivera, Baldomero M.Calcium channel antagonists: ω-conotoxin defines a new high affinity siteThe ω-conotoxins, a class of Ca2+ channel antagonists from fish-hunting marine snails, have recently been described (Olivera, B. M., McIntosh, J. M., Zeikus, R., Gray, W. R., Varga, J., Rivier, J., de Santos, V., and Cruz, L. J. (1985) Science, 230, 1338-1343). One of these peptide neurotoxins...Conotoxins; Calcium channels; Synaptosomes; Neurotoxins1986
12 Blair, David F.Chemical and spectroscopic evidence for the formation of a ferryl Fea3 intermediate during turnover of cytochrome c oxidaseWhen partially reduced cytochrome c oxidase samples are reoxidized with dioxygen, an EPR-silent dioxygen intermediate, which is at the three-electron level of dioxygen reduction, is trapped at the dioxygen reduction site. The intermediate has novel spectral features at 580 and 537 nm. Combined op...Cytochrome c oxidase; EPR; Fea3 intermediate; Reduction1986
13 Henderson, Thomas C.Combining symbolic and numeric computation on the CRAYIt is now widely accepted that the CRAY supercomputers are very useful for large numeric applications, e.g., Finite Element Analysis, Fluid Dynamics, Image Processing, etc. Much work has been done to make them run efficiently on the CRAY. There has also been some effort to do symbolic computing (Al ...CRAY supercomputers; Symbolic computation; Numeric computation1986
14 Cashdan, Elizabeth A.Competition between foragers and food producers on the Botletli River, BotswanaThe immigration of food-producing groups into areas occupied by hunters and gatherers must have been a common occurrence in prehistory. How were the hunter-gatherers affected by this? I describe here two groups of Kalahari Basarwa ('Bushmen'), one living along the flood plain of the lower Botletli ...Kalahari Basarwa; Bushmen; Foraging; Cattle1986
15 Sikorski, KrisComplexity of computing topological degree of Lipschitz functions in n dimensionsWe find lower and upper bounds on the complexity, comp(deg), of computing t h e topological degree of functions defined on the n-dimensional unit cube Cn, f : ?Cn Rn,n ? 2, which satisfy a Lipschitz condition with constant K and whose infinity norm at each point on t h e boundary of Cn is at least d...Lipschitz functions1986

23 Zick, Cathleen D.Does the teaching of home economics skills have an economic payoff? The case of clothing constructionIn recent years secondary schools have begun to view their home economics programs as an increasing marginal portion of their overall curricula. Because no payments are made for goods produced at home, gauging the economic value of taking a home economics class has been difficult for students, paren...Nonmarket activities; Clothing construction; Home sewing; Valuation1986

25 Battin, Margaret P.Dreariness of aesthetics (continued), with a remedyIn 1951, J. A. Passmore shamelessly titled an essay "The Dreariness of Aesthetics." Drawing on John Wisdom's earlier complaints, he denounced aesthetics' dullness, its pretentiousness, and the fact that it was "peculiarly unilluminating." What Passmore had in mind were the vapid abstractions and m...Aesthetics; Aestheticians; Art; Beauty1986
