The relationship of teacher perceptions of the impact of technology integration on Texas Assessment of Knowledge and Skills (TAKS) scores of 9th-11th grade students at Alamo Heights Independent School District, San Antonio, Texas
(Texas A&M University, 2008-10-10)
This study examines Levels of Technology Implementation (LoTi) teacher selfratings
and Texas Assessment of Knowledge and Skills (TAKS) scores. The LoTi
instrument is explained comprehensively in the study. Using a series ...
Delayed neutrons from the neutron irradiation of ²³⁵U
(Texas A&M University, 2008-10-10)
A series of experiments was performed with the Texas A&M University Nuclear
Science Center Reactor (NSCR) to verify ²³⁵U delayed neutron emission rates. A
custom device was created to accurately measure a sample's pneumatic ...
Nutrient regulation of an exotic, unidentified paratrechina sp. (hymenoptera: formicidae) found in Texas
(Texas A&M University, 2008-10-10)
Colony fitness, size, and reproductive potential are determined by their ability to locate
and consume the optimal amounts of various macronutrients. Understanding the
nutritional regulation of an ant colony furthers our ...
A delay-efficient radiation-hard digital design approach using code word state preserving (cwsp) elements
(Texas A&M University, 2008-10-10)
With the relentless shrinking of the minimum feature size of VLSI Integrated
Circuits (ICs), reduction in operating voltages and increase in operating frequencies,
VLSI circuits are becoming more vulnerable to radiation ...
On how the debate about what is law should proceed in the face of the methodology conflict in jurisprudence
(Texas A&M University, 2008-10-10)
This thesis focuses on the contemporary literature in Anglo-American analytic
jurisprudence that takes answering the question â what is law?â as the primary goal.
Agreement about what is lawâ that is, agreement about ...
Relative advantage of touch over vision in the exploration of texture
(Texas A&M University, 2008-10-10)
Texture segmentation is an effortless process in scene analysis, yet its mechanisms
have not been sufficiently understood. Several theories and algorithms exist
for texture discrimination based on vision. These models ...
Privacy of encrypted Voice Over Internet Protocol
(Texas A&M University, 2008-10-10)
In this research, we present a investigative study on how timing-based traffic analysis attacks can be used for recovery of the speech from a Voice Over Internet Protocol (VOIP) conversation by taking advantage of the ...
Media representation of maternal neonaticide

The present research conducted a rich discourse analysis of an episode of the fictional television crime drama, Law & Order: Special Victims Unit, as well as a content analysis of local and national news transcripts focusing ...
IRLbot: design and performance analysis of a large-scale web crawler
(Texas A&M University, 2008-10-10)
This thesis shares our experience in designing web crawlers that scale to billions
of pages and models their performance. We show that with the quadratically increasing complexity of verifying URL uniqueness, breadth-first ...
An assessment of least squares finite element models with applications to problems in heat transfer and solid mechanics
(Texas A&M University, 2008-10-10)
Research is performed to assess the viability of applying the least squares model
to one-dimensional heat transfer and Euler-Bernoulli Beam Theory problems. Least
squares models were developed for both the full and mixed ...
