Design and Implementation of High Performance Algorithms for the (n,k)-Universal Set Problem
(2010-01-14)
The k-path problem is to find a simple path of length k. This
problem is NP-complete and has applications in bioinformatics for
detecting signaling pathways in protein interaction networks and for biological subnetwork ...
Aerosol Condensational Growth in Cloud Formation
(2010-10-12)
A code for the quasi-stationary solution of the coupled heat and mass transport
equations for aerosols in a finite volume was developed. Both mass and heat are
conserved effectively in the volume, which results in a ...
ASSOCIATION AMONG FLUID, GRAIN INTAKE AND WEIGHT GAIN IN HOLSTEIN BULL CALVES
(2010-07-14)
This study was conducted to determine water intake. Forty-four Holstein bull calves were evaluated to investigate the effects of starter intake, body weight, temperature and time to predict water intake. A model was developed ...
Analysis of Topological Chaos in Ghost Rod Mixing at Finite Reynolds Numbers Using Spectral Methods
(2011-02-22)
The effect of finite Reynolds numbers on chaotic advection is investigated for two
dimensional lid-driven cavity flows that exhibit topological chaos in the creeping flow
regime. The emphasis in this endeavor is to study ...
Detecting Tangled Logic Structures in VLSI Netlists
(2010-10-12)
This thesis proposes a new problem of identifying large and tangled logic structures in a
synthesized netlist. Large groups of cells that are highly interconnected to each other can
often create potential routing hotspots ...
Correlation between Median Household Income and LEED Sustainable Site Criteria for Public Transportation Access and a Regression Model Predicting Appraised Unit Value of Unimproved Parcels in Houston, Texas
(2010-07-14)
The Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) Green Building Rating
System provides third-party verification for environmentally sustainable construction.
LEED certified buildings often provide healthier work ...
A Study of the Relationship of Communication Technology Configurations in Virtual Research Environments and Effectiveness of Collaborative Research
(2010-01-16)
Virtual Research Environments (VRE) are electronic meeting places for
interaction among scientists created by combining software tools and computer
networking. Virtual teams are enjoying increased importance in the conduct ...
OH* Chemiluminescence: Pressure Dependence of O + H + M = OH* + M
(2011-02-22)
The measure of chemiluminescence from the transition of the hydroxyl radical from its electronically excited state (A^2 Sigma^positive) to its ground state (X^2 Pi) is used in many combustion applications for diagnostic ...
Neither Wholly Public, Nor Wholly Private: Interstitial Spaces in Works by Nineteenth-Century American Women Writers
(2010-10-12)
This project examines the representation of architectural and metaphoric spaces in the
works of four nineteenth-century American women writers: Harriet Wilson, Harriet Jacobs,
Elizabeth Stuart Phelps, and Edith Wharton. I ...
Hardware Acceleration of Electronic Design Automation Algorithms
(2010-07-14)
With the advances in very large scale integration (VLSI) technology, hardware is going
parallel. Software, which was traditionally designed to execute on single core microprocessors,
now faces the tough challenge of taking ...
