26 Beckerle, Mary C.Comparison of three members of the cysteine-rich protein family reveals functional conservation and divergent patterns of gene expressionMembers of the cysteine-rich protein (CRP) family are evolutionarily conserved proteins that have been implicated in the processes of cell proliferation and differentiation. In particular, one CRP family member has been shown to be an essential regulator of cardiac and skeletal muscle development.LIM domains; Chicken fibroblasts; Zyxin; Actinin; Protein expression; Cysteine-rich proteins1997
27 Stringfellow, Gerald B.Compositional modulation and ordering in semiconductorsThe science of materials as a specific discipline is a relatively modern development. Within this rather modern field, the study of semiconductor materials is an even more recent development. Modern textbooks on materials science focus primarily on the properties of metals and second on the properti...Materials scientists; Controlled ordering1997
28 Parker, Steven G.; Hansen, Charles D.; Johnson, Christopher R.Computational steering and the SCIRun integrated problem solving environmentSCIRun is a problem solving environment that allows the interactive construction, debugging, and steering of large-scale scientific computations. We review related systems and introduce a taxonomy that explores different computational steering solutions. Considering these approaches, we discuss why ...Computational steering; Problem solving environment; SCIRun; Volume rendering1997
29 Mathews, V. John; Schlegel, ChristianComputationally efficient multiuser detection for coded CDMAAbstract: Computationally efficient multiuser detection for coded asynchronous CDMA systems is investigated. The particular receiver studied is a near-far resistant multi-user detector known as the projection receiver (PR) [originally developed in [1, 2]]. The PR perfoms multiple access interference...1997
30 Furse, Cynthia M.; Gandhi, Om P.Computations of SAR distributions for two anatomically-based models of the human head using CAD files of commercial telephones and the parallelized FDTD codeThe Finite Difference Time Domain (FDTD) method is well suited for the computation of bio-electromagnetic effects and has become the method of choice for most researchers in this area. There does however remain some limitations on its use. Firstly the FDTD method requires large amounts of memory and...Finite-difference time-domain method; FDTD; SAR distributions; CAD files1997
31 Olivera, Baldomero M.Conus venom peptides, receptor and ion channel targets, and drug design: 50 million years of neuropharmacologyThe predatory cone snails (Conus) are among the most successful living marine animals (~500 living species). Each Conus species is a specialist in neuropharmacology, and uses venom to capture prey, to escape from and defend against predators and possibly to deter competitors. An individual cone...Conotoxins1997
32 Vardeny, Zeev Valentine; Raikh, Mikhail E.Cooperative emission from a disordered system: a classical modelThe effect of disorder on the collective emission from a system of classical oscillators is studied theoretically. Three types of disorder are considered: random orientation of dipole moments, finite spread in frequencies of the individual oscillators (diagonal disorder), and dipole-dipole interacti...Cooperative emission; Disordered system; Dipole-dipole interaction; Oscillators1997
33 Riloff, Ellen M.Corpus-based approach for building semantic lexiconsSemantic knowledge can be a great asset to natural language processing systems, but it is usually hand-coded for each application. Although some semantic information is available in general-purpose knowledge bases such as Word Net and Cyc, many applications require domain-specific lexicons that repr...Corpus-based method; Semantic lexicons1997
34 Golden, Kenneth M.Critical behavior of transport in lattice and continuum percolation modelsIt has been observed that the critical exponents of transport in the continuum, such as in the Swiss cheese and random checkerboard models, can exhibit nonuniversal behavior, with values different than the lattice case. Nevertheless, it is shown here that the transport exponents for both lattice a...Ising model; Magnetization; Scaling1997
35 Golden, Kenneth M.Critical behavior of transport in percolation-controlled smart compositesThe electrical transport properties of many smart composites and other technologically important materials are dominated by the connectedness, or percolation properties of a particular component. Predicting the critical behavior of such media near their percolation threshold, where one typically obt...Matrix-particle composites1997
36 Brunvand, Erik L.Critical hazard free test generation for asynchronous circuitsWe describe a technique to generate critical hazard-free tests for self-timed control circuits build using a macromodule library, in a partial scan based DFT environment. We propose a 6 valued algebra to generate these tests which are guaranteed to be critical hazard free under an unbounded delay m...1997
37 Beckerle, Mary C.CRP1, a LIM domain protein implicated in muscle differentiation, interacts with α-actininMembers of the cysteine-rich protein (CRP) family are LIM domain proteins that have been implicated in muscle differentiation. One strategy for defining the mechanism by which CRPs potentiate myogenesis is to characterize the repertoire of CRP binding partners.CRP1; Cysteine-rich proteins; Actinin; Protein-protein interactions; LIM domains1997
38 Chuaqui, Miguel BasimCuarteto ClaroscuroI grew up in Chile during the 70's, and early 80's, a time of political upheaval and economic distress in Chile, and this has probably exerted as strong an influence on my musical outlook as any other aspect of Chilean culture. While I distrust "political art" I do have an abiding desire for my musi...1997
39 Williams, Clayton C.Depth dependent carrier density profile by scanning capacitance microscopyThe depth dependent carrier density was measured on an arsenic implanted silicon sample using scanning capacitance microscopy (SCM). The capacitance versus voltage scan was performed by applying dc biases with a dither ac signal. A strong dc bias dependence was observed at the interface of an abru...Carrier density; Silicon submicrometer technology; Scanning capacitance microscopy1997

41 Gopalakrishnan, GaneshDeriving efficient cache coherence protocols through refinementWe address the problem of developing efficient cache coherence protocols for use in distributed systems implementing distributed shared memory (DSM) using message passing. A serious drawback of traditional approaches to this problem is that the users are required to state the desired coherence prot...Cache coherence protocols; DSM; Message passing1997
42 Wolfinger, Nicholas H.Different voices of gender: social recognitionMany researchers have shown that men and women speak differently. In this paper we examine whether these differences extend to the interpretation of speech. Men and women were recorded as they described their participation in a common interpersonal dilemma.Gender differences1997
43 Olivera, Baldomero M.; Gray, William Robert; McIntosh, J. MichaelDifferential targeting of nicotinic acetylcholine receptors by novel αA-conotoxinsWe describe the isolation and characterization of two peptide toxins from Conus ermineus venom targeted to nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs).
