101 Normann, Richard A.Functional reorganization of primary visual cortex induced by electrical stimulation in the cat.Compared to the high degree of plasticity observed in a juvenile, mature sensory cortices have long been held to be immutable but, recently, researchers have suggested some plasticity persists in the mature cortex. Cortical reorganization has particular saliency to the development of a cortically ba...Cat; Electrophysiology; Phosphene; Plasticity; Receptive Field; Striate Cortex2005
102 Back, Godmar V.Java operating systems: design and implementationLanguage-based extensible systems such as Java use type safety to provide memory safety in a single address space. Memory safety alone, however, is not sufficient to protect different applications from each other. such systems must support a process model that enables the control and management of c...Java operating systems; Language-based systems1998

107 Gooch, Bruce; Reinhard, ErikPerception-driven black-and-white drawings and caricaturesIn this paper, we present a method for automatically creating black-and-white drawings of human faces from photographs. We then demonstrate new techniques for deforming these drawings to create caricatures intended to highlight and exaggerate facial features. A number of psychophysical studies we...Caricatures; Human faces2002-01-22
108 Henderson, Thomas C.RobotShare: a framework for robot knowledge sharingKnowledge representation is a traditional field in artificial intelligence. Researchers have developed various ways to represent and share information among intelligent agents. Agents that share resources, data, information, and knowledge perform better than agents working alone. However, previou...RobotShare; Robot knowledge sharing2007
109 Pershing, David W.Influence of coal composition on the fate of volatile and char nitrogen during combustionFifty coals from North America, Europe, Asia, South Africa and Australia were burned in a 21 kW, refractory-lined tunnel furnace to determine the influence of coal properties on the fate of volatile and char nitrogen. Excess air fuel NO emissions (as determined by combustion in Ar/02/C02) ranged fro...Coal composition; Char nitrogen; Volatile nitrogen; NO emissions1982
110 Tiwari, AshutoshGrowth of epitaxial ZnO films on Si(111)Epitaxial ZnO films have been grown on Si(l 11) substrates by employing a A1N buffer layer during a pulsed laser-deposition process. The epitaxial structure of A1N on Si(l 11) substrate provides a template for ZnO growth. The resultant films are evaluated by transmission electron microscopy, x-ray ...Buffer layers; Aluminum nitride; Silicon substrate2002
111 Freire, Juliana; Silva, Claudio T.Provenance for computational tasks: a surveyThe problem of systematically capturing and managing provenance for computational tasks has recently received significant attention because of its relevance to a wide range of domains and applications. The authors give an overview of important concepts related to provenance management, so that poten...Provenance management; Computational tasks2008-05
112 Furse, Cynthia M.Mixed-signal reflectometer for location of faults on aging wiringLocation of faults on aging cables is of great interest to maintainers of aircraft, cars, power distribution systems, communication systems, etc. One class of methods for locating faults is frequency domain reflectometry (FDR), using sine waves as the forcing function. A new frequency domain method...Mixed signal reflectometer; Fault location; Aging wiring; Nondestructive evaluation; Reflectometry2005-12
113 Yang, HaoriPulsed photofission delayed gamma ray detection for nuclear material identificationInnovative systems with increased sensitivity and resolution are in great demand to detect diversion and to prevent misuse in support of nuclear materials management for the U.S. fuel cycle. Nuclear fission is the most important multiplicative process involved in non-destructive active interrogation...2012-01-01
114 Horch, Kenneth W.Perspectives on new electrode technology for stimulating peripheral nerves with implantable motor prosthesesAbstract-The limits of present electrode technology are being reached in current motor prostheses for restoring functional movement in paralyzed people. Improved devices require electrodes and stimulation methods that will activate muscles selectively and independently with less implanted hardwa...Paralysis; Prostheses; Electrodes1995
115 Henderson, Thomas C.Target localization and autonomous navigation using wireless sensor networks -a pseudogradient algorithm approachAutonomous mobile robots (AMRs) operating in unknown environments face twin challenges: 1) localization and 2) efficient directed navigation.
