426 Boll, Steven F.; Timothy, LaMar K.Noise suppression methods for robust speech processing (1 Oct. 1978- 31 Mar. 1979)Robust speech processing in practical operating environments requires effective environmental and processor noise suppression. This report describes the technical findings and accomplishments during this reporting period for the research program funded to develop real time, compressed speech analysi...Noise suppression; Signal contamination; Compressed speech analysis-synthesis algorithms1979
427 Flynn, John J.Survey of injunctive relief under state and federal antitrust lawsRelatively little has been written about equitable relief under state and federal antitrust laws.1 Equity power in antitrust enforcement means much more than the mere power to restrain a defendant from doing an act for which the plaintiff has no "remedy at law," to order a defendant to remove a nuis...Statute; Directive1967

430 Riloff, Ellen M.Information extraction as a stepping stone toward story understandingHistorically story understanding systems have depended on a great deal of handcrafted knowledge. Natural language understanding systems that use conceptual knowledge structures (Schank and Abelson 1977; Cullingford 1978; Wilensky 1978; Carbonell 1979; Lehnert 1981; Kolodner 1983) typically rely on ...Information extraction; Story understanding1999
431 Yu, ZhouInternet Access, Spillover and Regional Development in ChinaAs Internet access grows at different rates across regions, the Internet has had variable effects on regional economies through agglomeration and spillover effects. This paper uses province-level panel data from 2000 to 2013 to study inequality in Internet access, its spatial effect on regional econ...Digital divide; Internet access; spillover effect; regional economic development; China2017-06-03
432 Gray, Kathryn E.Linguistic support for unit testingExisting systems for writing unit tests exploit built-in language constructs, such as reflection, to simulate the addition of testing constructs. While these simulations provide the minimally necessary functionality, they fail to support testing properly in many instances. In response, we have ...Java; Testing; Unit testing2007
433 Zimmer, ZacharyLiving arrangements and socio-demographic conditions of older adults in CambodiaSince the takeover of Cambodia by the Khmer Rouge in 1975, analysis of social conditions in the country has been lacking. Only recently has dependable socio-demographic data become available. We use some of these data to examine living arrangements and other socio-demographic conditions among Cambod...Living arrangements; Older adults; Socio-demographic conditions; Coresident children2002
434 Regehr, JohnPrecise garbage collection for CMagpie is a source-to-source transformation for C programs that enables precise garbage collection, where precise means that integers are not confused with pointers, and the liveness of a pointer is apparent at the source level. Precise GC is primarily useful for long-running programs and programs t...2009-01-01
435 Hillman, Nicholas WPreparing for the silver tsunami: the demand for higher education among older adults(Over the next decade, Baby Boomers will be reaching retirement age in large numbers and the U.S. will be undergoing one of the most significant demographic shifts in its history. This demographic shift has important implications for the role of higher education as a provider of lifelong learning an...2010
436 Orr, Douglas B.Program specialization using the OMOS systemAbstraction and modularity provide many software engineering benefits. Hiding details of module internals can, however, prevent system implementors from being able to provide anything but a highly general implementation of a given module. We describe OMOS, a programmable linker/loader and system s...OMOS system; Program specialization; Modularity; Linker/loader; Modules1995
437 McDaniel, SusanSocial reconstruction of sexual assault by women victims: a comparison of therapeutic experiencesIn this study, the conventionally accepted view of sexual violence against women as manifested by traditional therapy is contrasted with the feminist perspective represented by feminist therapy and feminist self-help groups for victims of sexual assault. The focus of the research is on the ways in ...Sexual violence; Feminist self-help; Feminist counselling1986
438 Balasubramonian, RajeevStaged reads: mitigating the impact of DRAM writes on DRAM readsMain memory latencies have always been a concern for system performance. Given that reads are on the criti- cal path for CPU progress, reads must be prioritized over writes. However, writes must be eventually processed and they often delay pending reads. In fact, a single channel in the main memory ...2012-01-01

440 Yang, Yue; Gopalakrishnan, Ganesh; Lindstrom, Gary E.A generic operational memory model specification framework for multithreaded program verificationGiven the complicated nature of modern architectural and language level memory model designs, it is vital to have a systematic ap- proach for specifying memory consistency requirements that can support verification and promote understanding. In this paper, we develop a spec- ification methodolog...Multithreaded program verification2003
441 Flynn, John J.Constitutional difficulties of Utah's executive branch and the need for reformUtah's constitution of 1896 has been aptly described as a "horse and buggy" constitution. Like most of her sister states, Utah adopted a constitution designed to accommodate a society accustomed to the nineteenth century pace of a horse and buggy at the very time that the industrial revolution was l...Utah, Constitution; Executive branch1966
442 Smith, Ken R.; Waitzman, Norman J.Double jeopardy: interaction effects of marital and poverty status on the risk of mortalityThe purpose of this paper is to examine the hypothesis that marital and poverty status interact in their effects on mortality risks beyond their main effects. This study examines the epidemiological bases for applying an additive rather than a multiplicative specification when testing for interacti...National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey1994
443 Rogers, Alan R.Evolution of time preference by natural selectionThis paper entertains the hypothesis that human time preferences are in evolutionary equilibrium (i.e. that no mutation changing time preferences could be favored by natural selection). This hypothesis implies that the marginal rate of substitution (MRS) holding Darwinian fitness constant must equal...Capitalism; Econometric models; Equilibrium1994-06
444 Yang, Yue; Gopalakrishnan, Ganesh; Lindstrom, Gary E.Formalizing the Java Memory Model for multithreaded program correctness and optimizationStandardized language level support for threads is one of the most important features of Java. However, defining and understanding the Java Memory Model (JMM) has turned out to be a big challenge. Several models produced to date are not as easily comparable as first thought. Given the growing inte...Java Memory Model; JMM; Multithreaded program2002-04-02
