Semi-Analytical Solutions of One-Dimensional Multispecies Reactive Transport in a Permeable Reactive Barrier-Aquifer System
(2012-07-16)
At many sites it has become apparent that most chemicals of concern (COCs) in groundwater are persistent and not effectively treated by conventional remediation methods. In recent years, the permeable reactive barrier ...
Mobile Home Node: Improving Directory Cache Coherence Performance in NoCs via Exploitation of Producer-Consumer Relationships
(2011-10-21)
The implementation of multiple processors on a single chip has been made
possible with advancements in process technology. The benefits of having multiple
cores on a single chip bring with it a new set of constraints for ...
High-Speed Link Modeling: Analog/Digital Equalization and Modulation Techniques
(2012-07-16)
High-speed serial input-output (I/O) link has required advanced equalization and modulation techniques to mitigate inter-symbol interference (ISI) caused by multi-Gb/s signaling over band-limited channels. Increasing demands ...
Changes in Gene Expression of Goat Developing Testes and Sperm During Breeding and Non-breeding Season
(2012-07-16)
Testicular function is fundamental to male fertility, since testicular cells act in collaboration with each other to signal sex differentiation, the initiation of puberty and spermatogenesis. Complications that can be ...

This qualitative study investigated Spanish language use and linguistic attitudes in Laredo, Texas and the surrounding area from 1860 to 1930. In the public domain, sources include the Spanish and English language newspapers ...
DSA Preconditioning for the S_N Equations with Strictly Positive Spatial Discretization
(2012-07-16)
Preconditioners based upon sweeps and diffusion-synthetic acceleration (DSA) have been constructed and applied to the zeroth and first spatial moments of the 1-D transport equation using SN angular discretization and a ...
Residential Use of Building Integrated Photo Voltaics
(2012-07-16)
Building Integrated Photo Voltaics (BIPVs) are devices which are manufactured to replace building components exposed to sufficient sunlight to generate energy. Photo Voltaic Roof tiles are Building Integrated components ...
Effect of Increasing Protein Supplementation on Intake and Digestion of Bermudagrass Hays of Divergent Quality by Beef Cattle
(2012-07-16)
Bermudagrass (Cynodon dactylon (L) Pers.), one of the predominant forages in the southeastern US, varies in nutritive value in response to management and environmental factors. Beef cattle supplementation decisions are ...
Using Novel Image-based Interactional Proofs and Source Randomization for Prevention of Web Bots
(2012-02-14)
This work presents our efforts on preventing the web bots to illegitimately access web resources. As the first technique, we present SEMAGE (SEmantically MAtching imaGEs), a new image-based CAPTCHA that capitalizes on the ...
