description: This article explores the labor upsurge of the early 2020s and places it in an historical context. In the early 2020s, workers across the U.S. protested, organized, and walked out, part of an upsurge that produced remarkable results. There were union victories at some of the country’s best-known corporations, including Starbucks, Amazon, Google, Apple, and Trader Joe’s. Between 2021 and 2023, more than 360 Starbucks stores unionized, most through independent worker action. Over 8,000 workers also organized an Amazon warehouse in Staten Island, doing so with a grassroots union and a budget of just $120,000. Across the country, the number of strikes surged, petitions for National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) elections rose sharply, and union density increased for the first time in decades. Opinion polls also showed record levels of public support for unions. Rather than seeing the upsurge as new–as media accounts stressed–the article links it to longer-term trends, particularly many decades of bargaining givebacks, increasing income inequality, and long-term union decline. Across the U.S., workers reached their breaking point, and hit back. Short-term conditions–particularly the labor shortage produced by the pandemic–were important, but the upsurge also reflected longer-term grievances that built up over decades.

description: Following the well-known TEI Pelican, both a twitter bot (https://twitter.com/TEI_Pelican) and a static website (https://teihub.netlify.app/) made by Philip Allfray, i would like to create a script crawling through the public API of the MarketPlace (https://marketplace-api.sshopencloud.eu/swagger-ui/index.html?url=/v3/api-docs#/default/getDatasets). Using queries like those already available (get/api/datasets and get/api/publication for example), it will look for specific terms ("puppets", "literature", "digital humanities",...) in the description of the JSON string returned by the API. Merging the SSHOC MarketPlace API with the current existing public API (CrossRef, Datacite, Isidore, Zenodo,...), i will be able to create my own database of publications and datasets related to a specific topic. This offers a very powerful tool for scientific monitoring.

description: Intermountain Health Care experts implemented a paper-based protocol addressing community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) treatment in 1995. LDS hospital's emergency department (ED) used the paper protocol for less than 10% of their CAP patients. ED physicians did not recognize a benefit and were intolerant of the extra paper work required. The purpose of this research was to use the ED's existing information system to create a portable CAP protocol that was integrated into the ED workflow to save time and effort of the physicians and to assess its clinical feasibility.  A computerized algorithm was implemented in Arden Syntax and reviewed for portability. Thirty of the 39 Arden Syntax medical logic modules were directly transportable. The work required by physicians could have been reduced by 76%.   Two hundred sixty-three eligible (CAP symptoms, age > 17, immunocompetent) CAP patients were studied and identified by ICD-9 codes 480-486. Physicians ordered 245 lab tests whereas the protocol suggested ordering 152. Physicians ordered 255 chest x-rays whereas the protocol suggested ordering 211. Physicians admitted 181 CAP patients whereas the protocol suggested admission for 149 CAP patients, 134 of the 149 were admitted. Physicians admitted 47 patients that the CAP CPM did not recommend admission for. Twenty patients were randomly selected in a manual chart review. Physicians prescribed cephalosporins for 17 patients; 5 of the 17 were combined with a macrolide; antibiotics were not mentioned for 3 patients. The computerized CAP protocol recommended cephalosporins plus a macrolide for 11 patients, penicillin for 2, a macrolide for 4, and made no reconmnendation for 3. Based on an 80% CAP CPM compliance for 263 CAP patients, the projected cost savings would have been $208,443. Ten percent fewer patients would have been admitted. Forty-four percent would have been treated with a cephalosprin plus a macolide. Sixteen percent would have been treated with a macrolide. Eight percent would have been treated with penicillin. The CAP CPM made no treatment recommendation for 32% of patients; antibiotic therapy would have been the physician's choice. An exportable computerized CAP protocol was successfully created and integrated into the ED workflow and clinical feasibility was assessed.

description: This study compared the intravenous fluid flow rates of two different flow control devices, the Dial-A-Flo® and the roller clamp. Thirteen different solution administration sets from three different companies, four different solutions and six rates were tested over a four hour interval. Of the four solutions tested, one, the hyperalimentation solution with the Dial-A-Flow® could not be calibrated. The other three solutions, 5% Dextrose in Water, normal saline, and 10% Dextrose in Water were calibrated as prescribed by the Sorenson Research CompanyÂ§s directions.  This study identified two major variables that afffected the delivery of intravenous fluid, the Dial-A-FloÂ® / roller clamp effect and the administration set effect. Of the solutions that could be calibrated, it was determined that the Dial-A-Flow delivered a significantly higher percent of expected fluid volume than the roller clamps. This study also indicated that microdrip administration sets delivered a significantly higher percent of expected fluid volume than did the macrodrip administration sets.

Note 1. Arrow (1911b: 169) states in his description of Ancognatha vulgaris that “it ranges from Panama to Peru and the Upper Amazons (Nauta).” Based on this statement, Endrödi (1966a: 382) subsequently places Nauta in the Brazilian state of Amazonas. In fact, Nauta is a town situated on the Upper Amazon in the Peruvian region of Loreto, well away from the border with Brazil. The records for Brazil in Endrödi (1985a: 161), Ratcliffe (2003: 45) and Moore et al. (2018b: 119) may well be based on this error.
Note 2. Duranton (2011: 17) notes he saw no definite specimens of Ancognatha vulgaris from French Guiana, and the species is not mentioned in the checklists for French Guiana by Ponchel (2011) and Dupuis (2016b). We have not seen any specimens from Suriname and are unaware of any other records from the research area. This species appears to be restricted to northwestern South America and the southern part of Central America.

Study of ignition and combustion of coal and coal chars; using a special shock tube system
Creators: name: Davis, Wayne Paul
Publisher: name: University of Utah
Year: 2012
Subjects: Combustion

description: The feasibility of using a special shock-tube system as a method for studying the ignition and burning of coal and coal chars was investigated. The system operating limits for the characterization of the ignition and combustion process were determined, and a preliminary evaluation of data was made. Sample particles of 25 ym were used in the study. Two samples of coal char were tested to determine their ignition characteristics. Significant data were obtained concerning the ignition and burning of the coal and both of the chars tested. Except for a significant difference in the intensity of visible radiation noted while burning, the ignition and burning properties of the coal and its chars were quite similar. The effects of gas temperature, total pressure, and oxygen content were determined. The data obtained were evaluated in terms of the thermal theory of ignition in an attempt to model the ignition process. It was found that the simple thermal ignition theory did not accurately describe the data obtained from the special shock tube system.
title: Housing Standards of the English Working-Classes, 1837-1914
Creators: name: Jackson, Kenneth
Publisher: name: University of Kent
Year: 2022

description: This thesis deals with the question of changes in the standards of working-class housing over the period from 1837 to 1914. As many, if not most, of the popu­lation until the late nineteenth century had experience of living in rural areas, it is by such standards that urban conditions are judged. Using a nineteenth-century basis of reference makes it easier to understand the problems which confronted those involved in bringing about changes at the time, whereas the use of a more modern benchmark only makes such understanding more difficult. The first part of the thesis deals with the analy­tical structure, involving an examination of both demand and supply factors, and the way in which they could have been expected to have affected the situation. Out of this first part comes the expectation that the explana­tions of changing standards differ as between the rural and the urban context. In rural areas, after the eigh­teen thirties, depopulation seems to assume a dominant role in explaining the possible improvements in housing conditions, through its effect on the demand side. In urban areas, by contrast, demand increased so rapidly that supply was liable to fall behind it in some periods, and overall provide the basis for only a slow and gradual improvement.

Patient compliance

description: Schizophrenia is a life-altering illness that affects 1 % of the population worldwide. Engaging the patient with schizophrenia in treatment, both psychosocial and biological, is problematic despite the use of a myriad of treatment interventions that demonstrate mixed results. Consensus by researchers is a need for a strong positive individual relationship between providers and patients. The caseloads of nurses in community mental health centers include patients with schizophrenia. Nurses have accepted the position of healthcare promotion and illness prevention for this group of patients. Nurses have a need to understand which interventions to use in order to promote treatment compliance for patients with schizophrenia in different manifestations of the illness.  The present research study, using grounded theory, provides a model of the nursing process identifying those aspects of the nurse/patient relationship that influence treatment compliance. Identified are the processes nurses in community mental health centers use to make decisions regarding (a) which interventions to use with different manifestations of schizophrenia and (b) how nurses make decisions regarding follow-up visits. Five expert nurses and 15 patients participated in the study. Patients from three levels of compliance were interviewed by each of the nurses. Data collection included participant observation of the nurse/patient interaction, field notes, memos, demographic questionnaires, interviews with the nurses postobservation, and a secondary literature review. The data were analyzed systematically, as they were collected by constant comparative analysis, where newly acquired data and previously collected data were continuously compared with one another.  The grounded theory research investigation identified a substantive theory; this theory was supported by the data. The basic social process of getting it, together, the core category of knowing, and the supporting categories of socializing, normalizing, and celebrating were introduced and discussed with the supporting field data.

Subjects: Medical records - Data processing

description: Studies reported in the literature demonstrate that diagnostic interpretations of test results such as chest x-rays and ECGs can be improved by supplying important clinical information about the patient to the clinician making the interpretations. Physicians at LDS Hospital, Salt Lake City, Utah, do not routinely give this information to radiologists when ordering chest x-rays. The project described in this thesis creates a computer program that is able to generate a clinical summary relevant to the domain of chest x-rays. The computer system at LDS Hospital, the HELP System,"" includes an expert system that uses 211 clinical findings stored in the patient database to diagnose 30 pulmonary diseases. This expert system provides the medical knowledge necessary to make an intelligent selection of data for a clinical summary. A sample of 106 patients was used. The database contained history, physical examination, vital signs, and laboratory data for these 106 patients. The computer system created to produce clinical summaries has five distinct and important components. These are 1) the expert-diagnostic system already mentioned, 2) an entry-sequence file, 3) a processor program, 4) a modular-scoring-algorithm frame, and 5) a report-generator program. To create the clinical summary, the processor or driver program sequentially reads formatted records for each of the 211 findings from the entry-sequence file, determines if the finding exists in the patient's clinical database, isolates this finding in a place in memory called a ""blackboard,"" runs the 30 diagnostic frames of the expert system using the blackboard as the patient's database, calls a modular-scoring-algorithm frame that generates a score or measure of importance for the finding, sorts all findings and scores into a ""sorted"" key-sequence file after removing redundant information, and finally calls a report-generator program that produces the clinical summary report using the sorted-key-sequence file as its input. The time required to produce the summaries using four different versions of the processor program ranged from 1 hr. 33.8 mins. to 3.8 mins. The fastest version used preprocessing to tabulate finding scores for given ranges of values.""

description: Shorter product life cycles and high product variance nowadays require efficient engineering of products and production systems. Hereby a further challenge is that costs over the entire life cycle of the product and production system are defined early in the process. Existing approaches in literature and practice such as simultaneous engineering and design for manufacturing incorporate aspects of production into product engineering. However, these approaches leave potential for increasing efficiency unused because knowledge from past generations of products, production systems, and business models is not stored and reused in a formalized way and future generations are not considered in the respective current engineering process. This article proposes an approach for integrated product and production engineering across generations and life cycles of products and production systems. This includes the consideration of related business models to successfully establish the products on the market as well as the anticipation of future product and production system characteristics. The presented approach can reduce both development and manufacturing costs as well as time to market and opens the vast technological potential for product design to achieve additional customer benefits. Three case studies elaborate on aspects of the proposed approach and present its benefits.

description: The problem of this study was to identify a relationship between education about neonatal circumcision for parents during the prenatal period and their decision to circumcise term male neonates.  The subjects were 260 expectant parents who attended hospital-based prenatal classes in Salt Lake City.  Results suggested that attitudes and decisions relative to neonatal circumcision were rooted in tradition and familial beliefs.  Prenatal education concerning the pros and cons of circumcision was viewed by subjects in a manner favorable to their previously formed beliefs. Certain demographic variables (sex, ethnic background, and income) did not correlate significantly with attitudes about circumcision, while other variable (religious background, years of education, and marital status) did correlate positively with attitudes about circumcision.  Approximately 92% of the subjects had attitude scores above the mathematical mean on a semantic differential scale for measuring attitude toward neonatal circumcision.  The higher the score, the more favorable was the attitude.  Postpartum telephone interviews revealed that 97.1% of 103 subjects who had newborn males had their sons circumcised.  Twelve prenatal class instructors, who were employed as nurses, had a broad range of attitude scores about neonatal circumcision.  The majority of these instructors reported that they usually discussed neonatal circumcision to various degrees in their classes.

Initial rapid tranquilisation in an acute adult inpatient ward
Creators: name: Amechi Nzekwe

Publisher: name: F1000 Research Limited
Year: 2018

description: Aim:
This audit compared practice with National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE) standards on the prescription and use of rapid tranquilisation, in an acute male inpatient ward of St. Luke’s Hospital, Middlesbrough, now Roseberry Park Hospital.

Background:
Improper; misuse and misadministration of rapid tranquilisation can compromise patient safety. The standards used are the Tees, Esk and Wear Rapid Tranquilisation policy and the NICE guidelines on the Short-term Management of Disturbed/Violent Behaviour In-patient Psychiatric Settings and Emergency Departments.

Methods:
Case notes and medication charts were reviewed for compliance with standards. 14 eligible new admissions into the ward in March 2010 were considered. Information sought were presence of rapid tranquilisation on prescriptions at admission; the administration of tranquilisation at any time during admission; inclusion of indications for medication use; clear reason for administration and the use of de-escalation if needed.

Results:
50% (7) of admitted service users were prescribed rapid tranquilisation at the point of admission. Only 28% (2) of prescriptions had clearly stated indications. 57% (4) of the prescribed group received the prescribed medications. There was no need for use of prescription in 43 % (3) of cases.  28% (2) of recipients had a clearly documented reason for medication administration in their case notes. All service users with documented reason for rapid tranquilisation had been involved in de-escalation. In service users without documented reason for rapid tranquilisation, there was a corresponding non-documentation of use of de-escalation.

Conclusions:
There was a high prevalence of rapid tranquilisation prescribing without corresponding justification for same. These prescriptions could have been largely precautionary in nature. Responsible prescribing and clarity of indications for use emerged as educational needs for psychiatry trainees who mostly carry out these admissions. Clear statement of the circumstances for rapid tranquilisation appeared to have encouraged the prior use of de-escalation techniques.

description: This research examined the process of probabilistic record linking and the study of familiality for common causes of death. Genealogical records from the Utah Population Database (UPDB) were linked with records from the Utah Cancer Registry and death certificates from the state of Utah. Record linking was done with commercial record linking software from Matchware Technologies called Automatch. The cancer records linked by Automatch were compared to previous linking results to test the effectiveness of the software. The record linking methods established in this linking process were applied to the death certificates. Death certificate records from 1957 through 1992 were linked to the genealogy records; 126,085 (45%) death certificates were linked. The linked records were grouped by cause of death into the 61 most common causes of death. The familial predisposition of the common causes of death was studied using two different methods. The first method used the Genealogical Index of Familiality (GIF). The GIF uses the kinship coefficient to measure the degree of relationship between all pairs of individuals in the cause of death groups. The GIF was calculated for each cause of death group along with 100 sets of matching controls. The control mean was compared to the GIF value for the cause of death. Results of the GIF showed substantial familiality for a number of causes of death including kidney cancer, aneurysm, and prostate cancer. The second method used to examine familiality calculated a first-degree relative risk for the cause of death groups. An expected value for each cause of death was calculated using the resources of the UPDB and compared to the rate of each cause of death among first-degree relatives. A high first-degree relative risk was seen for a number of causes of death including alcohol related deaths, ovarian cancer, and lung cancer. The record linking software performed well and helped to combine the different data sets successfully. The linked death certificate records provided a large data set to use in the study of familiality for common causes of death.

description: A major and recurrent issue in nomenclature and taxonomy is synonymy and the occurrence of competing names for a taxon. Formal proposals for conservation, protection, or rejection of names are a painstaking but necessary work, which for extant plants, often requires consulting the frequency of use of competing names in floras. In palaeopalynology, such information can be gathered by tedious consultation of the literature or by working with palaeopalynological databases, which provide easily accessible quantitative data on how frequently each given taxon name is used. Here, we show that such information can be employed not only for taxonomic revisions in plant microfossils, but also to calculate three new simple metrics, i.e. Citation Share (CS), Citation Rate (CR), and Establishment Index (EI), and quantify how widespread the use of a name is on its own, or in comparison to potentially competing name(s). Using three case studies, we demonstrate how our proposed metrics can easily be used to present how the use of a name of a taxon changed over the decades, especially for competing names. Independently of the study question, our proposed metrics provide a fast overview of popularity of names and abundance of the respective taxa in species inventories (CS and CR), and a concise compound metric to represent the standing of a name for competing names today (EI). Their advantage is that they encode information that would otherwise require rather lengthy enumerations and space-consuming visual representations. They are therefore an effective tool to represent data in a short and concise way to clarify cumbersome taxonomical and nomenclatural problems, and can support informed proposals for either conservation, protection or rejection, which are typically very limited in space for the respective argument.

description: This work is a study of the optical properties of single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) using continuous wave (CW) modulation spectroscopy and resonant  Raman scattering. SWNTs comprise a nanoscale, quasi-1D system in which the electrons are strongly interacting, resulting in the photo-generation of excitons.  Our optical studies have revealed the behavior of these excitons under a number of di fferent perturbations to the system.   We have used absorption, reflectance, electro-absorption (EA), photo-induced absorption (PA), charge-induced absorption (CIA), and resonant Raman scattering  (RRS) on films of SWNTs. Our EA results provide strong evidence for the dominance of excitons in the optical absorption spectra of SWNT  films. The absence of Franz-Keldysh oscillations and the presence of a derivative-like structure of the EA spectra indicate that the oscillator strength goes to the generation of excitons and not to interband electronic transitions. Furthermore, some of the photo-generated excitons are long-lived due to charge trapping in individual tubes within bundles, and this leads to a PA spectrum that is extraordinarily similar to the EA signal.  When SWNTs are electrochemically doped we see that the exciton absorption is bleached due to k-space fi lling and screening of the excitons by the modi ed local  dielectric, while there is very little shift in the exciton transition energies due to band-gap renormalization. Simultaneously the infrared absorption, which is due  to Drude free-carriers absorption, is enhanced. A similar behavior is observed in the case of direct charge injection. The RRS of doped SWNT samples shows a  frequency shift of many of the Raman-active modes that is commensurate with the macroscopic actuation observed in nanotube-based electrochemical devices. This indicates that doping-induced changes in the lattice are connected with softening and sti ening of the vibrational modes.  Our results impact many proposed technologies that exploit the unique prop-erties of SWNTs. Displays, batteries, and even photovoltaics that incorporate  nanotubes are already in development. The performance and robustness of these devices could be improved when our results are taken into account.

description: Previous studies have demonstrated that pretreating with multiple injections of escalating doses of methamphetamine (METH) induces tolerance to the long-term neurotoxic effects of METH on dopamine (DA) neurons. The mechanism(s) underlying this tolerance phenomenon is (are) unknown. Recent studies suggested that aberrant vesicular monoamine transporter-2 (VMAT-2) and DA transporter function contribute to the neurotoxic effects of METH. Hence, the purpose of this study was to explore the role of the VMAT-2 and DA transporter in the induction of tolerance to the long-term persistent dopaminergic and serotonergic deficits caused by METH. A second purpose was to investigate the potential role of hyperthermia and alterations in brain METH distribution in this tolerance. Thus, we hypothesize that tolerance to the neurotoxic effects of METH is possibly due to either a shift in the drug distribution of METH in the brain and/or the prevention of METH-induced alterations in monoamine transporter function. Data from this dissertation revealed that the protection from METH pretreatment was not due to changes in the distribution of METH in the brain, as both the METH-pretreated and saline-pretreated rats had similar amounts of METH and amphetamine (AMP) in the brain after the last METH challenge injection. Depending on the dosing protocol employed, the METH pretreatment regimen could slightly attenuate METH-induced hyperthermia during the challenge administration, thus possibly contributing to the protection against long-term monoamine depletion. METH pretreatment regimen attenuated both the acute METH-induced decrease in VMAT-2 function 2 h after the METH challenge administration and its resulting persistent DA deficits in the striatum as well as serotonin (5-HT) deficits in the hippocampus. However, the pretreatment regimen did not produce tolerance by altering the acute METH-induced decrease in DA transporter uptake. Furthermore, pretreatment with METH prior to a high-dose METH challenge administration also attenuated the acute METH-induced redistribution of VMAT-2 immunoreactivity within the nerve terminal. In summary, these data are the first to demonstrate an association between the prevention of acute alterations in vesicular DA uptake and the development of tolerance to the neurotoxic effects of METH.

description: The extensive outsourcing of forest harvesting operations means that the operational performance of contractors has an immense impact on the forest industry supply chain. This study describes perceived drivers and obstacles for strong performance in harvesting service based on semi-structured interviews with four production supervisors and eight contractors. The analysis of interview data revealed a wide array of factors considered to drive or hinder the performance. The factors were categorized into five types: Capability, Incentives, Commitment, Involvement and External factors. Factors concerning Capability, especially resources and competence, were most frequently considered by production supervisors as both drivers and hinders. The contractors considered most commonly Incentives to affect performance, especially motivation and strategy, as drivers and the economy as hinder. Both parties considered lack of resources as hinder to performance. For competence, relationship and collaboration interface, on the other hand, the two parties had different views on whether they acted as drivers or hinders. The knowledge presented in this paper is of interest to researchers or practitioners who wishes to understand the complexities underlying successful harvesting service performance. The insights can contribute to the reshaping of business practices to better target and leverage the mechanisms that most strongly affect performance.

description: We investigated the effects of atherosclerosis in the carotid region on cerebral haemodynamics. A total of 15 stenosis cases following NASCET criteria were modelled using patient-specific medical image data and an open-source package, SimVascular. The formulation adopted the stabilised Petrov–Galerkin scheme with Newtonian and incompressible assumptions. The boundary conditions employed pulsatile inflow and three-element lumped Windkessel outlet conditions with a rigid wall assumption. We present transitions in the represented CoW during stenosis progression using three-dimensional aortic-cerebral vasculature for the first time. This was driven by the conserved total cerebral blood flow to 50% carotid stenosis (CS) (P-value, P > 0.05), which deteriorated during subsequent stages of CS (P < 0.01), and the effective collateral capability of the communicating arteries (CoAs) activated from a degree of 75% and above (P < 0.0001). The prevalence of ‘complete’ CoW peaked at 50% CS and then declined. Despite the collateral flow, the ipsilateral hemispheric perfusion was moderately reduced (P < 0.01), and the contralateral perfusion was conserved (P > 0.05), revealing the ineffectiveness of collateral capability of CoW at the extreme stages of CS. We identified bulk cerebral auto-regulation effects of the conventional Windkessel model, demonstrating accurate flow reduction in the stenosed artery.

description: Cheatgrass, or Downy Brome, is an exotic winter annual weed native to the Mediterranean region. Since its introduction to the U.S., it has become a significant weed  and aggressive invader of sagebrush, pinion-juniper, and other shrub communities, where it can completely out-compete native grasses and shrubs.  In this research, remotely sensed data combined with field collected data are used to investigate the distribution of the cheatgrass in Central Utah, to characterize the trend of the NDVI time-series of cheatgrass, and to construct a spatially explicit populationbased model to simulate the spatial-temporal dynamics of the cheatgrass.  This research proposes a method for mapping the canopy closure of invasive species using remotely sensed data acquired at different dates. Different invasive species have their own distinguished phenologies and the satellite images in different dates could be used to capture the phenology. The results of cheatgrass abundance prediction have a good fit with the field data for both linear regression and regression tree models, although the regression tree model has better performance than the linear regression model.  To characterize the trend of NDVI time-series of cheatgrass, a novel smoothing algorithm named RMMEH is presented in this research to overcome some drawbacks of many other algorithms. By comparing the performance of RMMEH in smoothing a 16-day composite of the MODIS NDVI time-series with that of two other methods, which are the 4253EH, twice and the MVI, we have found that RMMEH not only keeps the original valid NDVI points, but also effectively removes the spurious spikes. The reconstructed NDVI time-series of different land covers are of higher quality and have smoother temporal trend.  To simulate the spatial-temporal dynamics of cheatgrass, a spatially explicit population-based model is built applying remotely sensed data. The comparison between the model output and the ground truth of cheatgrass closure demonstrates that the model  could successfully simulate the spatial-temporal dynamics of cheatgrass in a simple cheatgrass-dominant environment. The simulation of the functional response of different prescribed fire rates also shows that this model is helpful to answer management questions like, "What are the effects of prescribed fire to invasive species?" It demonstrates that a medium fire rate of 10% can successfully prevent cheatgrass invasion.

description: This dissertation explores three key facets of software algorithms for custom hardware ray tracing: primitive intersection, shading, and acceleration structure construction. For the first, primitive intersection, we show how nearly all of the existing direct three-dimensional (3D) ray-triangle intersection tests are mathematically  equivalent. Based on this, a genetic algorithm can automatically tune a ray-triangle intersection test for maximum speed on a particular architecture. We also analyze the components of the intersection test to determine how much floating point precision is required and design a numerically robust intersection algorithm. Next, for shading, we deconstruct Perlin noise into its basic parts and show how these can be modified to produce a gradient noise algorithm that improves the visual appearance. This improved algorithm serves as the  basis for a hardware noise unit. Lastly, we show how an existing bounding volume hierarchy can be postprocessed using tree rotations to further reduce the  expected cost to traverse a ray through it. This postprocessing also serves as the basis for an efficient update algorithm for animated geometry. Together, these  contributions should improve the efficiency of both software- and hardware-based ray tracers.
