 | Regehr, John | From the editor: real-time and embedded systems--teaching reliability | Can we teach students to build reliable embedded software? Although it would be rash to say that a general agreement exists on how to teach embedded systems, there's certainly a growing understanding of the issues. For example, the excellent August 2005 issue of ACM Transactions on Embedded Computin... | | 2006-01-01 |

 | Tiwari, Ashutosh | Garnet-type Li7La3Zr2O12 electrolyte prepared by a solution-based technique for lithium ion battery | High quality garnet-type Li7La3Zr2O12 solid electrolyte was synthesized using a solution-based technique. The electrolyte pellets were sintered at 900 oC, resulting in tetragonal phase, which then transformed to cubic phase after annealing at 1230 oC. The ionic conductivity of both phases was studie... | | 2012-01-01 |

 | Hansen, Charles D. | Gaussian transfer functions for multi-field volume visualization | Volume rendering is a flexible technique for visualizing dense 3D volumetric datasets. A central element of volume rendering is the conversion between data values and observable quantities such as color and opacity. This process is usually realized through the use of transfer functions that are prec... | Volume rendering; Transfer functions; Volume visualization | 2003 |
