A language for designing software systems
(1980)
At the present time there have been few tools developed to aid in the design of software systems. It is now recognized that more effort in the design phase of the software life cycle pays benefits in time and money in the ...
A microbiological and chemical analysis of shrimp offloading facility effluents
(1980)
The objectives of this project included (a) characterizing microbiological and chemical parameters of the effluents from typical Texas shrimp offloading facilities, (b) determining the impact of the effluents on the quality ...
Approximation algorithms for scheduling to minimize the makespan of communicating processes on selected computer networks
(1980)
The problem addressed in this research is to determine how to efficiently schedule a task system, in which the precedence relation is a tree, on the processors of centralized and distributed-loop computer networks. In ...
Evaluation of buffelgrass genotypes for resistance to the spittlebug complex Aeneolamia albofasciata (Lallemand) and Prosapia simulans (Walker) of northeastern Mexico
(1980)
Seventy-seven genotypes of buffelgrass were screened for resistance to the spittlebug complex A. albofasciata (Lallemand) and. P. simulans (Walker) in Apodaca, N. L. Screening involved artificially infesting plants in caged ...
The fate of maize chlorotic dwarf virus (MCDV) in the black-faced leafhopper, Graminella nigrifrons (Forbes) (Homoptera: Cicadellidae)
(1980)
Ultrathin sections of tissues, organs, and whole bodies of black-faced leafhoppers, Graminella nigrifrons (Forbes), were examined by transmission electron microscopy. Virions were observed adsorbed only to the intima of ...
The location and distribution of extinction-induced aggressive behavior in humans : evidence for a stage model of extinction
(1980)
Two experiments were designed to investigate the effects of extinction on aggressive responding in humans. In Experiment 1 subjects (male college students) received either continuous (CRF) or partial (PRF) reinforcement ...
Network decomposition procedures for a time-phased highway maintenance scheduling problem
(1980)
A multi-period highway maintenance scheduling program was formulated as a large scale 0-1 integer nonlinear program (INLP). A number of other real world multi-period investment problems can also be formulated in a similar ...
Edgar B. Davis : wildcatter extraordinary
(1980)
Edgar B. Davis entered the Texas wildcatting phase of his life in 1919 after successful business careers in New England shoe manufacturing and in the United States rubber industry. At age forty-six he took up exploration ...
Variation in root leachate and rhizosphere-rhizoplane microflora among cultivars representing different levels of multi-adversity resistance in cotton
(1980)
Twenty-three multi-adversity resistant (MAR) cotton strains and two commercial cultivars were used to study the associations between root leachate components, rhizosphere-rhizoplane microflora, yield, earliness, and ...
The views of industrial arts teachers in the state of Oklahoma concerning the implementation of career education
(1980)
The problem as addressed by this study was to determine the views of Oklahoma industrial arts teachers pertaining to career education objectives, methods of implementing career education, and demographic data that may ...
