277 Furse, Cynthia M.Challenges with optically transparent patch antennasIn this paper, antennas made out of transparent conducting oxides (TCOs) are explored. The optical transparency of transparent conducting oxides is achieved through thin-film depositions on substrates. However, thin-film depositions create a new set of electrical challenges that require a full under...2012-01-01
278 Riloff, Ellen M.Corpus-based identification of non-anaphoric noun phrasesCoreference resolution involves finding antecedents for anaphoric discourse entities, such as definite noun phrases. But many definite noun phrases are not anaphoric because their meaning can be understood from general world knowledge (e.g., "the White House" or "the news media"). We have develope...Corpus-based identification; Non-anaphoric noun phrases; Coreference resolution; MUC-4; Discourse entity; DE1999
279 Goller, FranzExperimental support for a model of birdsong productionIn this work we present an experimental validation of a recently proposed model for the production of birdsongs. We have previously observed that driving the model with simple functions of time, which represent tensions in vocal muscles, produces a wide variety of sounds resembling birdsongs. In th...Vocal; Muscles; Syrinx2003
280 Miller, Jan D.Magnetic separation for wastepaper recycle millsAn alternative approach to the conventional washing and flotation techniques for de-inking of mixed office waste (MOW) is magnetic separation. The use of magnetic de-inking has great potential to improve the efficiency of ink removal due to the magnetic content of toners. It is shown experimen...Deinking; Paper pulp; Wastepaper; Magnetic separation1997
281 Sperry, John S.Seasonal occurrence of xylem embolism in sugar maple (Acer saccharum)Xylem embolism, the reduction of water flow by air-filled vessels, was measured in a stand of 5- to 8-year-old sugar maple (Acer saccharum Marsh.) saplings growing in a nursery bed in northwestern Vermont. Embolism was quantified as percentage loss in hydraulic conductivity of trunk and branch seg...Xylem pressure; root pressure; dye perfusion1988

284 Gu, JunFast structured design of VLSI circuitsWe believe that a structured, user-friendly, cost-effective tool for rapid implementation of VLSI circuits which encourages students to participate directly in research projects are the key components in digital integrated circuit (IC) education. In this paper, we introduce our VLSI education activ...VLSI circuits; Rapid implementation1988
285 Chapman, David S.; Picard, M. DaneHeat flow in the Uinta Basin determined from bottom hole temperature (BHT) dataThe thermal resistance (or Bullard) method is used to judge the utility of petroleum well bottom-hole temperature data in determining surface heat flow and subsurface temperature patterns in a sedimentary basin. Thermal resistance, defined as the quotient of a depth parameter AZ and thermal con...Thermal analysis; Bottom hole temperature1984-04
286 Podlog, Leslie WilliamCollege students goal orientations, situational motivation and effort/persistence in physical activity classesThe purpose of this study was to examine relationships among college students' 2 × 2 goal orientations (mastery-approach [MAp], mastery-avoidance [MAv], performance-approach [PAp], performance-avoidance [PAv]), situational motivation (intrinsic motivation, identified regulation, external regulation...2012-01-01
287 Vardeny, Zeev ValentinePhotophysics of excitons in quasi-one-dimensional organic semiconductors: single-walled carbon nanotubes and ∏-conjugated polymersThe nature of the primary photoexcitations in semiconducting single-walled carbon nanotubes (S-SWCNTs) is of strong current interest. We have studied the emission spectra of S-SWCNTs and two different rr-conjugated polymers in solutions and films, and have also performed ultrafast pump-probe spectro...Photophysics; Excitons; Quasi-one-dimensional; Single-walled carbon nanotubes; pi-conjugated polymers2006-02
288 Regehr, JohnAn isotach implementation for myrinetAn isotach network provides strong guarantees about message delivery order. We show that an isotach network can be implemented efficiently entirely in software, using commercial o-the-shelf hardware. This report describes that effort. Parts of this implementation could be performed much more efficie...1997-01-01
289 Gopalakrishnan, GaneshEfficient symbolic simulation based verification using the parametric form of boolean expressions (rev.)We present several new techniques to make symbolic simulation based verification efficient. These techniques hinge on the use of the parametric form of a boolean expression (e.g. the parametric form for the boolean expression XQ V -<xi is the equivalent expression 3a b . (XQ = a V 6) A (xi = b), whe...Symbolic simulation; Verification1991
290 DeTar, CarletonToward an effective chiral model of high-temperature QCDIn an effort to expose the mechanism for chiral-symmetry restoration in high-temperature QCD, we use numerical simulations of lattice QCD with staggered fermions to obtain information about possible effective chiral models. We propose the strategy of comparing expressions built from expectation val...Chiral model; Meson fields; Chiral symmetry; Phase transitions1992-06
291 Davidson, Diane W.Evolutionary ecology of symbiotic ant-plant relationshipsAbstract.--A tabular survey of ant-plant symbioses worldwide summarizes aspects of the evolutionary ecology of these associations. Remarkable similarities between ant-plant symbioses in disjunct tropical regions result from convergent and parallel evolution of similarly preadapted ants and plants. ...Symbioses; Evolution; Taxonomic1993

293 Lohse, Keith R.Modeling Longitudinal Outcomes: A Contrast of Two MethodsBackground: Repeated measures analysis of variance (ANOVA) is frequently used to model longitudinal data but does not appropriately account for within-person correlations over time, does not explicitly model time, and cannot flexibly handle missing data. In contrast, mixed-effects regression address...mixed-effects regression; ANOVA; learning; development
294 Vardeny, Zeev ValentineNonlinear optical spectroscopy of excited states in polyfluoreneWe used a variety of nonlinear optical (NLO) spectroscopies to study the singlet excited-state order and primary photoexcitations in polyfluorene, an important blue-emitting ∏-conjugated polymer. The polarized NLO spectroscopies include ultrafast pump-probe photomodulation in a broad spectral rang...pi-conjugated polymers; Polyfluorene; Photoexcitations2007-03

296 Normann, Richard A.Statistical encoding model for a primary motor cortical brain-computer interfaceA number of studies of the motor system suggest that the majority of primary motor cortical neurons represent simple movement-related kinematic and dynamic quantities in their time-varying activity patterns. An example of such an encoding relationship is the cosine tuning of firing rate with respect...Discrete Distribution; LN Model; Neural Decoding; Neuroprosthetics; Sequential Monte-Carlo Filter2005
