Normann, Richard A.; Campbell, Patrick K.; Jones, Kelly E. | 100 electrode intracortical array: structural variability | A technique has been developed for fabricating three dimensional "hair brush" electrode arrays from monocrystalline silicon blocks. Arrays consist of a square pattern of 100 penetrating electrodes, with 400 microns interelectrode spacing. Each electrode is 1.5mm in length and tapers from about 100 m... | Microelectrode arrays; Stimulation; Micromachining | 1990 |

Evans, John | A distributed object-oriented graphical programming system | This report presents the design of a distributed parallel object system (DPOS) and its implementation using a graphical editing interface. DPOS brings together concepts of object-oriented programming and graphical programming with aspects of modern functional languages. Programs are defined as netwo... | Distributed parallel object system; DPOS | 1990 |

George, Lal | A scheduling strategy for shared memory multiprocessors | An efficient scheduling strategy for shared memory multiprocessors is described. The rapid dissemination of tasks to available procesors and ready queues is crucial to the performance of any parallel system. Such overheads determine the attainable speedup and performance of the system. Poor techniq... | Shared memory multiprocessors | 1990 |

Beckerle, Mary C. | Adhesion plaque protein, talin, is phosphorylated in vivo in chicken embryo fibroblasts exposed to the tumor-promoting phorbol ester | Talin is a high molecular weight phosphoprotein that is localized at adhesion plaques. We have found that talin phosphorylation increases 3.0-fold upon exposure of chicken embryo fibroblasts to the tumor-promoting phorbol ester, phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate. | Talin; Vinculin; Chicken embryo fibroblasts | 1990 |

Bruderlin, Beat | An axiomatic approach for solving geometric problems symbolically | This paper describes a new approach for solving geometric constraint problems and problems in geometry theorem proving. We developed a rewrite-rule mechanism operating on geometric predicates. Termination and completeness of the problem solving algorithm can be obtained through well foundedness and ... | Geometric constraint problems; Geometry theorem proving; Knuth-Bendix completion algorithm | 1990 |

Normann, Richard A. | Background and bleaching adaptation in luminosity type horizontal cells in the isolated turtle retina | 1. The effects of background illumination and bleached photopigment on luminosity type horizontal cells were studied in the isolated turtle retina. 2. Background illumination, which produced less than 60% bleaching, hyperpolarized and desensitized the horizontal cells to a degree which depended upon... | Turtles; Retina; Photoreceptors; Bleached photopigment; Dark Adaptation | 1990 |

McDaniel, Susan | Becoming inventors: women who aspire to invent | Despite growing awareness of women's contributions to technological advances in the past, almost nothing is known about contemporary women inventors and the challenges they face. Although greater attention has been given recently to women's contributions to technology and innovation, understanding... | Inventions; Inventing; Technology | 1990 |

Starkey, Mike | C-RISC A C language reduced instruction set computer | This project is the implementation of a Reduced Instruction Set Computer (RISC) on a tiny chip. RISC technology is based on the idea that a small number of simple instructions can be used to create a fast, flexible computer. Our RISC uses this principle while staying within the confines of the tiny ... | RISC; C language | 1990 |

Olivera, Baldomero M.; Parks, Thomas N. | Conantokin-T: a γ-carboxyglutamate containing peptide with N-methyl-D-aspartate antagonist activity | Conantokin-T, a 21-amino acid peptide which induces sleep-like symptoms in young mice was purified from the venom of the fish-hunting cone snail, Conus tulipa. The amino acid sequence of the peptide was determined and verified by chemical synthesis. The peptide has 4 residues of the modified amino ... | Conotoxins; Conantokin-T; N-methyl-D-aspartate antagonist; Conus tulipa | 1990 |

Kessler, Robert R. | Concurrent Scheme | This paper describes an evolution of the Scheme language to support parallelism with tight coupling of control and data. Mechanisms are presented to address the difficult and related problems of mutual exclusion and data sharing which arise in concurrent language systems. The mechanisms are tailored... | Concurrent Scheme; Parallelism | 1990 |

Golden, Kenneth M. | Convexity and exponent inequalities for conduction near percolation | The bulk conductivity o*(p) of the bond lattice in Zd with a fraction p of conducting bonds is analyzed. Assuming a hierarchical node-link-blob (NLB) model of the conducting backbone, it is shown that o*(p) (for this model) is convex in p near the percolation threshold pc, and that its critical expo... | Lattice; Conductivity; Model | 1990 |

Florsheim, Paul W. | Cross-cultural views of self in the treatment of mental illness: disentangling the curative aspects of myth from the mythic aspects of cure | THIS paper compares Eastern and Western concepts of self within the context of the healing process. I draw upon the work of Sudhir Kakar and Heinz Kohut to illustrate differences in how mental illness is expressed and treated in India and the United States. I propose that cultural variances in the w... | | 1990 |

Gopalakrishnan, Ganesh | Design and verification of the rollback chip using HOP: a case study of formal methods applied to hardware design | The use of formal methods in hardware design improves the quality of designs in many ways: it promotes better understanding of the design; it permits systematic design refinement through the discovery of invariants; and it allows design verification (informal or formal). In this paper we illustrate ... | Rollback chip; Verification; HOP; Hardware design; RBC | 1990 |

Bruderlin, Beat | Detecting ambiguities: an optimistic approach to robustness problems in computational geometry | Computational geometry algorithms deal with geometric objects, usually represented by coordinates in an n-dimensional Euclidean space. Most efficient algorithms implement geometric operations as floating point arithmetic operations on the coordinates. Since floating point numbers can only approxima... | Ambiguities; Computational geometry; Robustness problems | 1990 |
