1 Mcpherson, Brian JamesOverpressures in the Uinta Basin, Utah: analysis using a three-dimensional basin evolution modelAbstract. High pore fluid pressures, approaching lithostatic, are observed in the deepest sections of the Uinta basin,Utah. Geologic observations and previous modeling studies suggest that the most likely cause of observed overpressure is hydrocarbon generation. We studied Uinta overpressure by dev...2001

7 Hansen, Charles D.Knowledge-based out-of-core algorithms for data management in visualizationData management is the very first issue in handling very large datasets. Many existing out-of-core algorithms used in visualization are closely coupled with application-specific logic. This paper presents two knowledgebased out-of-core prefetching algorithms that do not use hard-coded rendering-re...2006
8 Horch, Kenneth W.Ontogeny of diving and feeding behavior in juvenile seaturtles: Leatherback Seaturtles (Dermochelys coriacea L) and Green Seaturtles (Chelonia mydas L) in the Florida CurrentWe compared activity, diving behavior and response to prey by Dermochelys coriacea and Chelonia mydas during their first 8-10 weeks of development.We reared juveniles in the laboratory and, at two-week intervals, released them in the ocean for a brief trial. Each turtle towed a device used to measur...Hatchlings; Posthatchling; Habitats2004
9 Gopalakrishnan, GaneshA general compositional approach to verifying hierarchical cache coherence protocolsModern chip multiprocessor (CMP) cache coherence protocols are extremely complex and error prone to design. Modern symbolic methods are unable to provide much leverage for this class of examples. In [1], we presented a method to verify hierarchical and inclusive versions of these protocols using ...Hierarchical cache coherence protocols; Verification2006-11-26
10 Fujimoto, Richard M.; Gopalakrishnan, GaneshDesign and evaluation of the rollback chip: special purpose hardware for time warpThe Time Warp mechanism offers an elegant approach to attacking difficult clock synchronization problems that arise in applications such as parallel discrete event simulation. However, because Time Warp relies on a lookahead and rollback mechanism to achieve widespread exploitation of parallelism, t...Rollback chip; Time Warp mechanism; Clock synchronization; Parallel discrete event simulation1988
11 Henderson, Thomas C.UPE: Utah prototyping environment for robot manipulatorsDeveloping an environment that enables optimal and flexible design of robot manipulators using reconfigurable links, joints, actuators, and sensors is an essential step for efficient robot design and prototyping. Such an environment should have the right "mix" of software and hardware components fo...prototyping environment; robot manipulators1994
12 Mcpherson, Brian JamesCO2 sequestration in deep aquifersDisposal and long-term sequestration of anthropogenic "greenhouse gases" such as CO2 is a proposed approach to reducing global warming. Deep, regional-scale aquifers in sedimentary basins are possible sites for sequestration, given their ubiquitous nature. We used a mathematical sedimentary basin m...2000
13 Freire, Juliana; Silva, Claudio T.VisTrails: enabling interactive multiple-view visualizationsVisTrails is a new system that enables interactive multiple-view visualizations by simplifying the creation and maintenance of visualization pipelines, and by optimizing their execution. It provides a general infrastructure that can be combined with existing visualization systems and libraries.

14 Freire, Juliana; Silva, Claudio T.Towards enabling social analysis of scientific dataFlickr, Facebook, Yahoo! Pipes), which facilitate collaboration and sharing between users, are becoming increasingly popular. An important benefit of these sites is that they enable users to leverage the wisdom of the crowds. For example, in Flickr, users, in a mass collaboration approach, tag ...Social data analysis; Scientific data; Workflows; Provenance; Pipelines; VisTrails2008

16 Sobh, Tarek M.; Henderson, Thomas C.Robotic prototyping environment (Progress report)Prototyping is an important activity in engineering. Prototype development is a good test for checking the viability of a proposed system. Prototypes can also help in determining system parameters, ranges, or in designing better systems. The interaction between several modules (e.g., S/W, VLSI, CAD,...Prototyping; Prototyping environment; Robotic prototyping1994
17 Freire, JulianaIntegrated scientific workflow management for the Emulab network testbedThe main forces that shaped current network testbeds were the needs for realism and scale. Now that several testbeds support large and complex experiments, management of experimentation processes and results has become more difficult and a barrier to high-quality systems research.
