Fast history matching of time-lapse seismic and production data for high resolution models
(Texas A&M University, 2008-10-10)
Integrated reservoir modeling has become an important part of day-to-day
decision analysis in oil and gas management practices. A very attractive and promising
technology is the use of time-lapse or 4D seismic as an ...
On the same team? a qualitative study of female sportswriters' attitudes on covering women's athletics
(Texas A&M University, 2008-10-10)
Women's athletics regularly receives less media coverage than men's athletics,
and female athletes are often portrayed in ways that de-emphasize their athletic abilities.
Previous researchers have suggested that increasing ...
Effective algorithms and protocols for wireless networking: a topological approach
(Texas A&M University, 2008-10-10)
Much research has been done on wireless sensor networks. However, most protocols
and algorithms for such networks are based on the ideal model Unit Disk Graph
(UDG) model or do not assume any model. Furthermore, many ...

(Texas A&M University, 2008-10-10)
The purpose of this study was to assess the perceptions of Master Livestock
Volunteer program participants regarding the effectiveness of the program, their role in
the county 4-H volunteer program, and the role of various ...
Structural study of the interaction between poxvirus-encoded cc chemokine inhibitor vcci and human mip-1beta
(Texas A&M University, 2008-10-10)
Chemokines (chemotactic cytokines) comprise a large family of proteins that
recruit and activate leukocytes, giving chemokines a major role in both immune response
and inflammation-related diseases. Viral CC chemokine ...
The piecewise linear discontinuous finite element method applied to the RZ and XYZ transport equations
(Texas A&M University, 2008-10-10)
In this dissertation we discuss the development, implementation, analysis and testing of
the Piecewise Linear Discontinuous Finite Element Method (PWLD) applied to the
particle transport equation in two-dimensional ...
Integer programming models for the branchwidth problem
(Texas A&M University, 2008-10-10)
We consider the problem of computing the branchwidth and an optimal branch decomposition
of a graph. Branch decompositions and branchwidth were introduced in
1991 by Robertson and Seymour and were used in the proof of ...
Quantum stabilizer codes and beyond
(Texas A&M University, 2008-10-10)
The importance of quantum error correction in paving the way to build a practical
quantum computer is no longer in doubt. Despite the large body of literature in quantum
coding theory, many important questions, especially ...
Women negotiating collaborative learning: an exploratory study of undergraduate students in a select university setting
(Texas A&M University, 2008-10-10)
The purpose of the study is to explore women's experiences as they negotiate
collaborative group projects in a college course. This qualitative study extends the
existing literature by providing depth to the research on ...
Two essays on incentives
(Texas A&M University, 2008-10-10)
I examine two sets of incentives faced by corporate CEOs to determine how they
respond to those incentives. I compare firms that restate financial statements to firms
that do not restate to test the hypotheses that bank ...
