Ground beef shelf life assessment as influenced by sodium lactate, sodium propionate, sodium diacetate, and soy protein concentrate
(Texas A&M University, 2000)
In phase I all-beef and soy-added ground beef patties containing sodium lactate, sodium propionate, and sodium diacetate at various levels and combinations were stored for nine months at -10°C. Upon cooking, the addition ...
GIS: a web-based genomics information system for efficiently manipulating and accessing genome physical maps
(Texas A&M University, 2000)
Biological science has entered the genome era. Global genome integrative physical and genetic mapping promises to revolutionize modern genomics research. To facilitate manipulation and applications of the results from ...
A preference-based extension for the scalable consensus-based bandwidth allocation protocol in a multicast video conference environment
(Texas A&M University, 2000)
This thesis develops a protocol extension, the Preference-based Allocation eXtension for Layered Sources (PAXLS), to complement the existing Scalable ConsensUs based Bandwidth Allocation (SCUBA) protocol used in allocation ...
Optimizations enabling transformations and code generation for th HP V class
(Texas A&M University, 2000)
It is generally accepted that state-of-the-art restructuring compiler systems can parallelize automatically only about 25% of existing Fortran codes. This thesis presents some code transformations that improve the power ...
The president and foreign policy choice
(Texas A&M University, 2000)
Previous literature that analyzes the domestic factors that affect the timing and occurrence of president's foreign policies focuses primarily on policies of a conflictual nature such as the use of military force. Less ...
Electrical resistance of gases in explosive magnetic flux compression generator environments
(Texas A&M University, 2000)
Gases that are electrical insulators at STP can become conductors when subjected to the high pressure and temperature environment in explosive magnetic flux compression generators (FCGs). This thesis describes experiments ...
Strategies to improve specification attainment for beef production
(Texas A&M University, 2000)
The effects of a treatment, weight, average frame size x weight, average muscle thickness x weight and average frame size x average muscle thickness x weight versus corresponding carcass characteristics were experimentally ...
Mechanical properties of normotensive and hypertensive carotid and coronary arteries and their quantification
(Texas A&M University, 2000)
Hypertension is a major risk factor for a variety of cardiovascular diseases like atherosclerosis, stroke, dissecting aortic aneurysms, etc. and is responsible for significant mortality and morbidity. Hypertension results ...
Modeling the probability of excitation and the defective part level as testing progresses
(Texas A&M University, 2000)
The primary purpose of digital circuit manufacture testing is to detect defective parts so that they will not be sold to customers. Predicting the defective part level, which results after a set of test patterns has been ...
Low power RF CMOS phase-shifting dual modulus (16/17) prescaler
(Texas A&M University, 2000)
This report describes the research work I undertook for my M.S. degree requirements. The conventional and phase-shifting architectures are compared. Problems with the phase-shifting architecture are analyzed and a new ...
