The effects of modality of social interruptions on job performance and anxiety
Creators: name: Glushakow, Jason M.
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2007

description: The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of social interruptions communicated via different mediums on task performance and on affective measures such as anxiety, stress, and annoyance.  The study sought to investigate the effect of a personal visit, phone call, or instant message interruption on individuals working on a simple and a complex task.    Participants were randomly assigned to either interruption or non-interruption conditions and to one of the three communication mediums.  Twice confederates interrupted interruption participants during the course of the experiment in the medium to which they were assigned (either face-to-face, phone, or instant message).  They were interrupted once while they were completing a simple typing task and once while they were completing a complex payroll task.  No-interruption participants served as control participants.  These individuals were still contacted by confederates.  However, they were not contacted while typing or working on the payroll task.  Unlike individuals in other interruption conditions, individuals in the instant message interruption condition were impaired on the simple task.   Overall, interruption participants suffered impairment on the complex task.  Individuals interrupted by phone calls were impaired the most on the complex task.  Participants did not report any major differences across conditions' in state anxiety, stress, or annoyance.  Implications of these results and possible organizational applications are discussed.
Securing wireless localization against signal strength attacks

description: Accurately positioning nodes in wireless and sensor networks is important because the location of devices and sensors is a critical input to many higher-level applications. However, the localization infrastructure can be subjected to non-cryptographic attacks, such as signal attenuation and amplification, that can not be addressed by traditional security services. This thesis aims to provide secure and accurate location information in wireless and sensor networks by characterizing the response of localization algorithms to attacks, detecting attacks, localizing adversaries, and additionally, improving localization performance.First we studied the robustness of localization algorithms to signal strength attacks. We found the performance of localization algorithms degrades significantly under attacks when signals are attenuated or amplified by an adversary. We then formulated a theoretical foundation for the attack detection problem using statistical significance testing. We proposed attack detection schemes for two broad localization approaches: signal strength and multilateration. We found that different localization systems all contain similar attack detection capabilities. Next, we examined the applicability of localization methods to localize adversaries participating in identity-based spoofing attacks. We proposed a spoofing detector for wireless spoofing that utilizes K-means cluster analysis. We integrated our K-means attack detector into a real-time indoor localization system, which is capable of localizing the positions of attackers. Our experiments using both an 802.11 (WiFi) network as well as an 802.15.4 (ZigBee) network in two office buildings provide strong evidence of the effectiveness of our approach in attack detection and localizing the positions of the adversaries.In addition, we investigated the impact of landmark placement on localization performance using a combination of analytic and experimental analysis. We developed a novel algorithm called maxL-minE algorithm that finds an optimized landmark deployment. Our experimental results show that our landmark placement algorithm is generic because the resulting placements improve localization performance significantly across a diverse set of algorithms, networks, and ranging modalities. Finally, we presented our general purpose real time localization infrastructure which targets to localize any radio-enabled wireless devices at anywhere and at anytime.

Rare paternal plastid inheritance in arabidopsis
Creators: name: Azhagiri, Arun
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2007

description: Plastids and mitochondria, in a standard genetic cross, are transmitted to the seed progeny by the maternal parent in Arabidopsis thaliana. My objective was to test, if exceptional pollen transmission of plastid occurs in Arabidopsis, a species in which no plastid DNA could be detected in pollen or sperm cells by cytological methods. The maternal parent was the nuclear male sterile (ms1-1/ms1-1), spectinomycin sensitive Ler ecotype and the pollen parent was the male fertile RLD-Spc1 plant carrying a plastid-encoded spectinomycin resistance mutation. I selected for exceptional pollen transmission in the progeny by spectinomycin resistance encoded in the paternal plastid DNA. I found that plastids, in general, are inherited maternally in Arabidopsis and rare events of paternal plastid transmission to the seed progeny occurs at a low (3.9 x 10-5) frequency. This observation extends previous reports in Nicotiana tabacum (family: Solanaceae) to a cruciferous species suggesting that low frequency paternal leakage of plastids via pollen may be universal in plants previously thought to exhibit strict maternal plastid inheritance.Two components needed to accomplish this study were a plastid-encoded, spectinomycin resistant mutant as the pollen parent and plastid markers to identify the origin of the plastids in the hybrid seed progeny obtained from the crosses. To identify genetic markers in the Arabidopsis thaliana plastid genome (ptDNA) I amplified and sequenced the rpl2-psbA and rbcL-accD regions in 26 ecotypes. The two regions contained eight polymorphic sites including five insertions and/or deletions (indels) involving changes in the length of A or T mononucleotide repeats and three base substitutions. The 27 alleles provided a practical set of ptDNA markers for the commonly used RLD, Ler, Col and C24 ecotypes. I used a RLD-Spc1 line carrying a plastid-encoded spectinomycin resistant mutation as the pollen parent that was compatible with the Ler maternal parent.

DESCRIPTION. — Small (SVL 16.2-21.7 mm ♂, 21.1-23.7 mm ♀) and slender frog, with pointed snout. Head small, slightly longer than wide (HW 24-33% SVL; HL 31-38% SVL).Tympanum barely distinct, covered by skin (TYD 7-11% SVL). Hind leg moderately long (TL 40-58% SVL). Webbing rather large, leaving up to two phalanges free; webbing formula: I 1 – 1 ¼ II ½ – 2 III 1 – 2 IV 1 ½ – ½ V. Fingers and toes with terminal discs. Skin uniformly smooth on the back and flanks, slightly granular on the belly.
COLOURATION. — The dorsal colouration is green with white dorsolateral bands from tip of snout to groin. The canthus rostralis and upper eyelid are brown. The ventral body is white.
SEXUAL DIMORPHISM. — Males have a yellow gland on the subgular vocal sac. Nuptial spines are not distinct, prepollex not distinctly thickened.
HABITATS AND DISTRIBUTION. — The species is widely distributed in the Guinean savannah areas of West Africa. Rödel & Agyei (2003) and Leaché et al. (2006) reported its presence in the forest area between Togo and Ghana. Specimens have been studied by Bourgat (1979) in his work on the trematodes of Togo. During our survey, this species was collected in Kpei Solongo (Fazao Malfakassa National Park). Populations of this species have been observed along Mono River in ecological zone III.
TAXONOMY NOTE. — Older publications (Channing et al. 2002; Amiet 2005) discussed the taxonomy of these frogs, and regarded them as part of Hyperolius nasutus Günther, 1865, with a wide range in western, central and southern Africa. Channing et al. (2013) revised the group and validated the name originally proposed by SchiØtz (1963) and limited the distribution of this species to West Africa.

Performance evaluation of multi-hop WPANS based on a realistic OFDM UWB physical layer
Creators: name: Gao, Hongju
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2007

description: MB-OFDM (Multi-Band Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) is one of the promising candidates for the UWB (Ultra-Wide-Band)-based alternative physical (PHY) layer for WPANs (Wireless Personal Area Networks). However, the coverage radius of MB-OFDM UWB systems is very short, and single-hop transmissions may not be adequate for WPANs operating at very high-data-rates. Therefore, a multi-hop ad hoc WPAN system is considered in this study in order to extend the UWB radio coverage. The overall system performance is obtained to determine if the Quality-of-Service parameters can still be preserved when an IEEE 802.15.3 TDMA MAC layer is used in multi-hop communication scenarios.A position-based stateless routing protocol with greedy forwarding is adopted in this study for multi-hop WPANs. Simulation results show that the position-based stateless greedy routing scheme with carefully selected transmission radius R meets the QoS performance criteria for many real-time applications before saturation of the network occurs. Hence, the scheme is a good choice for the routing protocol to be used with multi-hop WPANs based on an OFDM UWB physical layer.At the MAC layer, when using equal-weighted topology-based scheduling, it can be observed that the system performance obtained can meet QoS requirements only when either the data rate is very low, or there are only a very small number of active links. Network capacities actually achieved for both 200 and 480 Mbps transmission systems are much less than those predicted by theory since the network bandwidth is not utilized efficiently. When using the on-demand rate-based scheduling scheme, the performance results for both the 200 and 480 Mbps transmission systems match the network capacity levels expected for multi-hop WPANs. The scheduling efficiency is comparatively high for the on-demand scheduling scheme, and hence, network bandwidth can be utilized more efficiently. It has been found that the IEEE 802.15.3 TDMA MAC layer, with the proper scheduling and routing schemes can satisfactorily meet QoS requirements in the context of multi-hop networks.  Multi-hop WPAN based on the OFDM UWB physical layer has been determined to be a viable approach to extend the network coverage while adequately supporting very high data rate multimedia traffic.
Globalization, democratization and government education provision in East Asia

description: How would globalization and democratization affect government education provision in East Asia? My dissertation conducts the first systematic statistical and comparative case study in South Korea, Taiwan, Singapore, Hong Kong (before 1997), Malaysia, Indonesia, Philippines and Thailand.The statistical study covers all eight cases for the time period 1971 to 2003. It finds no robust effects of trade and capital account openness on government education provision, evaluated from resources, participation, attainment, and gender equity. However, comparative case studies of Taiwan, Singapore, Malaysia and Thailand show significant effects of globalization. As governments in these cases adopted an outward-oriented economic strategy, increasing competition from the global market eventually pressured them to adapt their education systems to the needs of the economy and the global market. Common reform measures include expanding education access, updating vocational, science and technology education, administrative reforms and learning reforms. The role of the state is critical in this process of education upgrading. The states that prioritize theimportance of human capital in their development model early and have efficient policy linkages matching economic demand and education supply did better. The case studies also show that the globalization indicators used in the statistical study cannot capture its impacts well.Democratization has been found to have positive effects on government education provision in both the statistical and the case studies. The statistical study finds that comparing with their authoritarian counterparts, democracies in East Asia have a higher per capita education spending, a higher per student spending as percent of GDP per capita at the primary and the secondary levels and a higher gross secondary school enrollment.Consistently, the case studies show that democratization is associated with expanding education access, redistributing education resources from the elites to the masses and fundamental education reforms. However, the mechanisms producing these changes vary by case. The civil society played a major role in initiating changes in Taiwan whereas electoral competition had limited effects. In Thailand, the main architects of reform were educational and bureaucratic elites in the 1970s and might be the civil society and democratic elites in the recent democratic period.

description: Zinc oxide (ZnO) nanostructures are emerging as the key building blocks for nanoscale optoelectronic and electronic devices. ZnO has a large exciton binding energy (~ 60 meV), which makes its nanotips ideal for studying excitonic emissions in one-dimensional systems even at room temperature. ZnO nanowires show a strong exciton-polariton interaction, promising for fabricating UV nanolasers. The large and fast photoconductivity in high quality ZnO is suitable for making UV photodetectors. ZnO nanotips can be grown on various substrates, including glass, Si, and GaN, at low growth temperature (~ 400° C) by metal-organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) that provides the potential of the integration of ZnO nanotips with Si based microelectronics and GaN based optoelectronics devices. To date, most of the research has been focused either on ZnO films, or on "pick-and-place" manipulation of randomly dispersed ZnO nanowires to study their physical properties. In this dissertation work in-situ n-type doping of ZnO nanotips during MOCVD is studied, including the doping effects on optical properties and electrical conductivity. Nanoscale tunneling current-voltage characteristics of the ZnO nanotips show the conductivity enhancement due to Ga doping at the proper range of doping concentration. At low or moderate doping levels, the increase in photoluminescence (PL) intensity from Ga doping is attributed to the increase of Ga donor related impurity emission.The excitonic emissions of ZnO nanotips are investigated using temperature-dependent PL spectroscopy. The sharp free exciton and donor-bound exciton peaks are observed at 4.4K, confirming high optical quality of the ZnO nanotips. Free exciton emission dominates at temperatures above 50K. The thermal dissociation of these bound excitons forms free excitons and neutral donors. Temperature-dependent free A exciton peak emission is fitted to the Varshni's equation to study the variation of energy bandgap versus temperature. A prototype of ZnO nanotips/GaN light emitting devices has been demonstrated using an n-ZnO nanotips/p-GaN heterostructure. The electroluminescence with a peak wavelength of 406nm is primarily due to radiative recombination from electron injection from n-type ZnO nanotips into p-type GaN. A novel integrated ZnO nanotips/GaN LED has been fabricated for enhanced light emission efficiency. A Ga-doped ZnO transparent conductive oxide (GZO) film and ZnO nanotips are sequentially grown on top of a GaN LED, serving as the transparent electrode and the light extraction layer, respectively. Compared with the conventional Ni/Au p-metal LED, light output power from the ZnO nanotips/GZO/GaN LED is improved by 1.7 times. The enhanced light extraction is attributed to the increased light scattering and transmission in the ZnO/GaN multilayer.

Experimental investigation of air cooling systems for electronic equipment by using vortex promoters
Creators: name: Gomes, Kevin D.
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied

description: Electronic systems these days are getting more powerful and processing speeds are increasing, resulting in increasing heat inputs to the systems. In order to keep up with these speeds, different cooling techniques must be considered. The present study consists of three parts. In the first part, we consider the flow due to a vortex promoter only. The periodic or chaotic behavior in the wake behind the promoter could be beneficial to the heat transfer rate. By analyzing different sizes and shapes, it can determine which vortex promoter offers the best turbulence and at which frequency it occurs. In the second part of the study, the flow over a plate with isolated heat sources only is considered. From here, a base case of just plate flow being perturbed can be achieved. By analyzing the heat transfer rate and the heat transfer coefficient, an understanding on why the larger the separation width between the two heaters, the higher the heat transfer rate can be seen. In the last part of the study, tests are done for the combination of the vortex promoter and the plate. Here, the effects on the heat transfer rate and the heat transfer coefficient are seen by placing a vortex promoter in front of the plate. Comparisons for the same sizes and shapes used in the first part, along with different heater and plate separations are performed here. From these tests, an optimal promoter is chosen and the distance from the heat sources the promoter has to be, in order to achieve the maximum heat transfer rate and heat transfer coefficient is determined.
Therapeutic potential of radial glial RG3.6 cells in rat spinal cord injury

description: Spinal cord injury (SCI) triggers a cascade of pathophysiological changes that lead to secondary tissue damage after the mechanical insult.  Early after SCI, cells are disrupted and excitotoxic amino acids (e.g. glutamate) are released.  Inflammatory cytokines and chemokines are quickly induced upon injury, followed by leukocyte infiltration (e.g. neutrophil and macrophage).  Neurons and glia undergo massive necrotic cell death and apoptosis.  Axons become progressively degenerated and extracellular substrate deposits in the lesion site, which leads to cyst and scar formation.  Cell-based therapies have been widely applied during SCI sub-acute phase and at least one mechanism associated with behavioral improvement is promotion of axonal remyelination and regeneration.  However, the efficacy of cell transplantation at acute SCI and associated mechanism has rarely been studied. Radial glial cells are essential in guiding and supporting neuronal migration during central nervous system development.  They are neural stem cells and have trophic functions under certain conditions.  In this thesis, our goal is to understand whether acute transplantation of radial glia can mitigate deleterious responses in the injured spinal cord tissue and promote functional recovery.  RG3.6 is a stable neural stem cell clone derived from E13.5 cortex and has radial glial phenotypes including bipolar shape, expression of BLBP and GLAST, and support of neurite growth.  Transplanted in normal spinal cord, RG3.6 retained radial glial phenotype and actively migrated along rostral-caudal axis of spinal cord and integrated nicely with host tissue.  In SCI, acute transplantation of RG3.6 significantly improved locomotion recovery as early as 2 days post injury.  The functional recovery may be associated with fewer infiltrating macrophages, less CSPG deposition, and more axonal preservation.  At the molecular level, RG3.6 cell enhanced the expression of genes that are involved in tissue defense and stem cell development. In summary, radial glia in acute SCI modulated host responses to the injury by mediating certain gene expressions at early times, suppressed neuroinflammation, and supported and reorganized axons during later phases.  Our results provide different perspectives of cell-based therapy for acute SCI.

Risk assessment in mice and men

description: Uncertainty is a ubiquitous property of both physical and mental realms. Goal-directed actions that take place under these conditions thus probabilistically predict their consequences. Traditional decision-making research has shown that particularly humans are non-normative decision-makers under uncertainty. On the other hand, considering the cognitive system as an output of evolutionary history, it is not unlikely that it models the uncertainties that partly determine the consequences of its actions. It is also natural to assume that the same system uses these models of uncertainty originating from multiple stochastic processes along with its metric representation of the consequences in planning its actions. Indeed, more recent research has shown closer to optimal performance in decision-making tasks in which the uncertainty was experienced and/or originated from the sensori-motor system. In this research, we investigated this very process in the context of temporal decision-making in both human and mice subjects. We further used this experimental context to answer the essential questions regarding the functional architecture of mind. This questioning specifically targeted the degree of representational and computational power needed to account for decision-making under uncertainty. In order to answer this question, we conducted computer simulations providing different degrees of representational substitution/power and compared their outputs to the empirical data. We conclude that both human and mice are optimal decision-makers under uncertainty that originates from extrinsic and intrinsic (mental) stochastic processes and observed performance can be better explained by information-processing rather than associative frameworks of mind.

Developing theory of mind and executive functions from three- to five-years-old: cross-sectional group and longitudinal single case approaches
Creators: name: Baker, Sara
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2007

description: In this dissertation I consider traditional approaches to developmental questions, and suggest new methods for analyzing variability in individual children. In chapter I, I review the literature on children's reasoning about mental states, such as beliefs and desires, from a very early age. This ability is often called "theory of mind". In chapter II I explore the suggestion that change in a preschooler's theory of mind is motivated by change in their executive functions, which reflect the child's ability to manipulate abstract representations. To this end, a new measure of cognitive development in executive functions is tested empirically. A correlation between theory of mind performance and executive function performance is demonstrated. In chapter III, I go beyond correlations in groups, to address the question of individual development. Current theories of how theory of mind develops do not make any specific predictions about what developmental change looks like in individuals. Is change abrupt or is it gradual? Is there a universal path to mature performance, or are there inter- and intra-individual differences? A new method for statistically analyzing variability in individual children's performance is proposed. Findings are discussed in terms of a general theoretical framework for theory of mind development in chapter IV.

Fundamental physical theories: mathematical structures grounded on a primitive ontology
Creators: name: Allori, Valia
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied

description: In my dissertation I analyze the structure of fundamental physical theories. I start with an analysis of what an adequate primitive ontology  is,  discussing the measurement problem in quantum mechanics and theirs solutions. It is commonly said that these theories have little in common. I argue instead that the moral of the measurement problem is that the wave function cannot represent physical objects and a common structure between these solutions  can be recognized:  each of  them is about a clear three-dimensional primitive ontology that evolves according to a law determined by the wave function. The primitive ontology  is what matter is made of while the wave function tells the matter how to move.  One might think that what is important in the notion of primitive ontology  is their three-dimensionality.  If so, in a theory like classical electrodynamics electromagnetic fields would be part of the primitive ontology. I argue that, reflecting on what the purpose of a fundamental physical theory is, namely to explain the behavior of objects in three--dimensional space, one can recognize that a fundamental physical theory has a particular architecture. If so, electromagnetic fields  play a different role in the theory than the particles and therefore should be considered, like the wave function, as part of the law.Therefore, we can characterize the general structure of a fundamental physical theory as a mathematical structure grounded on a primitive ontology. I explore this idea to better understand theories like classical mechanics and relativity, emphasizing that primitive ontology is crucial in the process of building new theories, being fundamental in identifying the symmetries. Finally, I analyze what it means to explain the word around us in terms of the notion of primitive ontology in the case of regularities of statistical character. Here is where the notion of typicality comes into play: we have explained a phenomenon if the typical histories of the primitive ontology give rise to the statistical regularities we observe.
