26 Golden, Kenneth M.Bounds on the complex permittivity of matrix-particle compositesThe complex effective dielectric constant E* of matrix-particle composites is considered. Such composites consist of separated inclusions of material of type one embedded in a matrix of material of type two. The analytic continuation method is used to derive a series of bounds which incorporate a n...Random; Parameters; Continuation1995
27 Golden, Kenneth M.Bounds on the complex permittivity of sea iceAn analytic method for obtaining bounds on effective properties of composites is applied to the complex permittivity e* of sea ice. The sea ice is assumed to be a two-component random medium consisting of pure ice of permittivity e1, and brine of permittivity e2. The method exploits the properties ...Brine; Properties; Geometry1995
28 Ehleringer, James R.Carbon isotope discrimination in the C4 shrub Atriplex confertifolia along a salinity gradientCarbon isotope discrimination (∆) was measured for leaves of Atriplex confertifolia along a salinity gradi~ ent in northern Utah. Over this gradient, the variation of ∆ values was high for a C4 species, and the ∆ values were positively correlated with salinity in both years of the study. Of th...Carbon isotope ratio; Salt stress; Bundle sheath leakiness; Halophyte; Atriplex confertifolia; Salinity gradient1995
29 Miller, Jan D.Characterization of interfacial water at hydrophilic and hydrophobic surfaces by in situ FTIR/internal reflection spectroscopyIn-situ FTIR/internal reflection spectroscopy (FTIR/IRS) has been used to spectroscopically characterize interfacial water near hydrophilic (silicon single crystal) and hydrophobic (polymer-coated germanium single crystal) surfaces. Interfacial water was examined spectroscopically over certain dista...Interfacial water; hydrophilic surfaces; Hydrophobic surfaces; Internal reflection spectroscopy; Silicon crystals; Germanium crystals1995
30 Firmage, Edwin B.Common humanity, magnificent diversityLoss forces us inward toward fundamentals. All great spiritual traditions teach, in the words of Meister Eckhart, that spirituality is about subtraction, not addition, less and less not more and more. It is in losing life that we find it.Death; Dying1995
31 Clayton, Dale H.Comparative effects of mites and lice on the reproductive success of rock doves (Columba livia)We report experimental data comparing the effects of Mesostigmatid mites and Ischnoceran lice on the reproductive performance of a single group of captive rock doves (Columba livid). Several components of host reproductive success were compared for the two groups, including number of eggs laid, hatc...Ectoparasites; Reproduction; Rock doves; Columba livia; Ischnocera; Mites; Lice1995
32 Lindstrom, Gary E.Compositionally modular SchemeWe present a new module system for Scheme that supports a high degree of implementation reuse via module composition. The module system encourages breaking down a program into the smallest possible individually meaningful modules, and recomposing them using a powerful set of adaptation and combinat...Module system1995

35 Hansen, Charles D.Cost-effective data-parallel load balancingLoad balancing algorithms improve a program's performance on unbalanced datasets, but can degrade performance on balanced datasets, because unnecessary load redistributions occur. This paper presents a cost-effective data-parallel load balancing algorithm which performs load redistributions only...Load balancing1995
36 Miller, Jan D.Critical review of wetting and adhesion phenomena in the preparation of polymer-mineral compositesThe wetting behavior of liquid polymers at solid surfaces and the adhesion forces involved at polymer-filler interfaces should always be considered in the preparation of high-quality polymer composites, including those made with mineral fillers. Spontaneous polymer spreading over the filler surface...Polymer-minerals; Composites; Wetting; Adhesion1995
37 Gesteland, Raymond F.; Krapcho, Karen J.; Talbot, Phil; Thulin, CraigCrystallization of the MS2 translational repressor alone and complexed to bromouridineThe coat protein from the MS2 bacteriophage plays a dual role by encapsidating viral RNA and also by binding RNA as a translational repressor. In order to study the isolated dimer in a conformation not influenced by capsid interactions, a mutant molecule was crystallized that is defective in capsid ...Crystallization; RNA Bacteriophage; RNA Hairpin; Translational Repressor1995
38 Beckerle, Mary C.Cysteine-rich protein family of highly related LIM domain proteinsHere we describe a family of closely related LIM domain proteins in avian cells. The LIM motif defines a zinc-binding domain that is found in a variety of transcriptional regulators, proto-oncogene products, and proteins associated with sites of cell-substratum contact. One type of LIM-domain protei...LIM domains; Chicken embryo fibroblasts; Quail embryo fibroblasts; Cell growth; Cell development; Cysteine-rich proteins1995
39 Maloney, Thomas N.Degrees of inequality: the advance of black male workers in the northern meat packing and steel industries before World War IIRecent major works on long-term racial inequality in the labor market revolve around competing hypotheses concerning the importance of human capital factors (Smith and Welch 1989) and government policy (Donohue and Heckman 1991) in promoting black advance. There is however, another line or thinking ...Labor markets; Northern employers; Racial inequality1995
40 Brown, Don R.The design and implementation of partnetPartNet is a federated database for providing interactive online access to mechanical parts catalogs. The data contained in the vendor's product database is exported to the federated database using a networkbased distributed database protocol. A Single coherent view of these vendor databases is pro...1995

42 Brunvand, Erik L.DFT for fast testing of self-timed control circuitsIn this paper, we present a methodology to perform fast testing of the control path of self-timed circuits [91]. The speedup is achieved by testing all the execution paths in the control simultaneously. The circuits considered in this paper are those designed using an OCCAM based circuit compile...1995
43 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 protocol1995

46 Henderson, Thomas C.Evolutionary teleomorphologyThe physical layout of organs and neural structures in biological systems is important to their functioning, and is the result of evolutionary selection forces. We believe this is true even at the individual neuron level, and should be accounted for in any bio-based approach. In particular, when tr...Evolutionary teleomorphology; Bio-based approach; Physical layout problem; PLP; Neurons; Nodes1995
47 Gopalakrishnan, GaneshExplicit-enumeration based verification made memory-efficientWe investigate techniques for reducing the memory requirements of a model checking tool employing explicit enumeration. Two techniques are studied in depth: (1) exploiting symmetries in the model, and (2) exploiting sequential regions in the model. The first technique resulted in a significant reduc...Verification; Model checking tool; Memory-efficient1995
48 Thompson, William B.Exploiting discontinuities in optical flowMost optical flow estimation techniques have substantial difficulties dealing with flow discontinuities. Methods which simultaneously detect flow boundaries and use the detected boundaries to aid in flow estimation can produce significantly improved results. Current approaches to implementing these ...Optical flow; Discontinuities1995
49 Thompson, William B.Feature-based reverse engineering of mechanical partsReverse engineering of mechanical parts requires extraction of information about an instance of a particular part sufficient to replicate the part using appropriate manufacturing techniques. This is important in a wide variety of situations, since functioning CAD models are often unavailable or unus...Mechanical parts1995
50 Silverman, Randall H.Fiber and talent intertwine at TwinrockerSeventeenth century philosopher John Locke compared the newborn human mind to a blank sheet of paper, a page devoid of any mark, ready to receive on its surface the unique characters of an individual's soul and circumstance.
