Hamilton College Usability Lab (2011)

Abstract : With the help of DURIP funds, we created a new Usability Research lab at Hamilton College that enables us to gather a variety of cognitive and behavioral metrics from users in order to gather real time, quantitative measures of their mental states while they work with a variety of computer interfaces. The equipment purchased with the DURIP funds is listed in Table 1. Paramount to Hamilton's approach is the use of a relatively new, non-invasive brain imaging technique called Functional Near-Infrared Spectroscopy (fNIRS) to make real-time, objective measurements of users' mental states while they work with various user interfaces. fNIRS was introduced in the early 1990's to complement, and in some cases overcome practical and functional limitations of EEG and other brain monitoring techniques. Users can wear the comfortable fNIRS device in real working conditions, allowing the measurement of their brain activity while they work with a given interface. These unbiased, real-time metrics are used to augment more traditional usability tests, providing greater insight into the effects of a given interface design on target users.
The Application Of Spatial Light Modulators To Real-Time Opto-Electronic Inspection Of Manufactured Glass Jars (1987)

Defects in machine-blown glassware, known as stuck glass, are caused by flying glass particles falling into red-hot bottles on an assembly line during manufacturing. These defects can potentially become dislodged when removing food from the glass container. Current inspection machines easily locate gross defects which are larger than the mold marks and lettering on the bottom of glass jars. Inspection of smaller defects, on the order of several mm, is generally performed manually. In this paper we present a real-time opto-electronic inspection machine which uses successfully images small glass defects while suppressing the image of the jar.
A Study on the State of Practice in Security Situational Awareness (2016)

We present the results of an interview study on the state of practice for Situational Awareness (SA) in the cybersecurity industry. Representatives from four global companies providing cybersecurity monitoring and analysis services and products were interviewed to get a view into the current state of practice in SA. The interviews were performed as a form of thematic interview, resulting in the classification of the results in three main areas of SA, i.e., how security is modelled, what information is collected, and how the data is analyzed. We describe the topics covered by the interviews, the common issues and methods, their differences, and provide a summary view on the current state of security monitoring and analysis in the cybersecurity industry. We also describe potential future work in terms of identified challenges in the area. The results help understand various aspects of cybersecurity situational awareness, to identify gaps between research and practice, and to build holistic SA solutions.
Feasibility and Fidelity of Data Exchange Through IFC for Building Commissioning (2005)

The building commissioning (BC) ensures that the various interacting systems in a building are properly installed and operating.It is a process requiring extensive data exchange among different participants across multiple project phases.The Industry Foundation Classes (IFC), a widely supported data exchange standard in the building industry, can play an important role in building commissioning by enabling interoperability among building commissioning, architectural design and facility management tools.In this paper, we explore whether the current IFC release can meet the requirements of the building commissioning.We consider several BC-related test cases to show how well the IFC can support the BC-related data exchange and discuss what extensions to the current IFC are desired.
Artikel 234 i Romfördraget (2001)

EG-domstolen är den institution inom EU som har haft störst betydelse för EG-rättens utveckling och artikel 234 i Romfördraget är den bestämmelse som har spelat störst roll för att försäkra en enhetlig tillämpning i samtliga medlemsstater. Kombinationen EG-domstolen och artikel 234 har varit mycket lyckad och det är just i mål om förhandsavgöranden som flera viktiga EG-rättsliga principer har utvecklats. Trots att artikel 234 är relativ kort och till synes klar, har den givit upphov till ett flertal frågeställningar som domstolen blivit tvungen att ta ställning till. Genom sin rättspraxis har EG-domstolen bland annat klarlagt vilka krav som måste vara uppfyllda för att en fråga skall få ställas, vilka domstolar som är behöriga, vad det finns för undantag från skyldigheten som stadgas för högsta instanser samt i vilka fall EG-domstolen anser sig behörig att avvisa en förfrågan. Här går även tydligt att urskilja hur domstolens inställning till artikeln har förändrats under åren. Artikelns stora framgång har inneburit att för tillfället utgörs mer än 50 procent av antalet mål vid EG-domstolen av förhandsavgöranden. Detta har inneburit att domstolen står inför en uppgift som alltmer börjar framstå som orimlig. Att dessutom en utvidgning står för dörren och ytterligare kompetensområden har tillförts domstolen gör inte situationen bättre. Följden har blivit att en förändring måste komma till stånd och det måste ske snabbt. Svårigheten ligger i att de flesta lösningar som på ett effektivt sätt påverka den höga arbetsbördan innebär ett hot mot den enhetliga tillämpningen. EG-domstolen har även tydligt visat en ovilja att göra allt för omfattande förändringar då det nuvarande systemet har varit mycket framgångsrikt. De lösningar som främst diskuterats är en förhöjd kompetens för Förstainstansrätten, en effektivisering av processen vid EG-domstolen, ett ökat antal domare, viss lättnad i acte clair doktrinen, ett införande av docket control, upphävande av underinstansers rätt att begära förhandsbesked samt inrättandet av fler ''EG-domstolar''. Genomgående för samtliga förslag är att de ger upphov till såväl för- som nackdelar och att de har både starka förespråkare och skeptiska motståndare. Att hitta en lösning som tillfredsställer alla önskningar och inte genererar några negativa effekter är inte möjligt. Vad som krävs är en omfattande diskussion kring vilket eller vilka av de möjliga alternativen som skapar en situation som åtminstone är bättre än i dag.
National trends in Haemophilus influenzae meningitis mortality and hospitalization among children, 1980 through 1991. (1994)

Among US children < 5 years old, we found substantial decreases in deaths and hospitalization from H influenzae meningitis, but not S pneumoniae or N meningitidis meningitis, in the years after Hib conjugate vaccine licensure. These results suggest that the declines in H influenzae meningitis were due primarily to the use of Hib conjugate vaccines.
Surface conditions of Nitinol wires, tubing, and as‐cast alloys. The effect of chemical etching, aging in boiling water, and heat treatment (2003)

The surface conditions of Nitinol wires and tubing were evaluated with the use of X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, high-resolution Auger spectroscopy, electron backscattering, and scanning-electron microscopy. Samples were studied in the as-received state as well as after chemical etching, aging in boiling water, and heat treatment, and compared to a mechanically polished 600-grit-finish Nitinol surface treated similarly. General regularities in surface behavior induced by the examined surface treatments are similar for wires, tubing, and studied as-cast alloy, though certain differences in surface Ni concentration were observed. Nitinol wires and tubing from various suppliers demonstrated great variability in Ni surface concentration (0.5-15 at.%) and Ti/Ni ratio (0.4-35). The wires in the as-received state, with the exception of those with a black oxide originating in the processing procedure, revealed nickel and titanium on the surface in both elemental and oxidized states, indicating a nonpassive surface. Shape-setting heat treatment at 500 degrees C for 15 min resulted in tremendous increase in the surface Ni concentration and complete Ni oxidation. Preliminary chemical etching and boiling in water successfully prevented surface enrichment in Ni, initially resulting from heat treatment. A stoichiometric uniformly amorphous TiO(2) oxide generated during chemical etching and aging in boiling water was reconstructed at 700 degrees C, revealing rutile structure.
Topological methods reveal high and low functioning neuro‐phenotypes within fragile X syndrome (2014)

Fragile X syndrome (FXS), due to mutations of the FMR1 gene, is the most common known inherited cause of developmental disability as well as the most common single-gene risk factor for autism. Our goal was to examine variation in brain structure in FXS with topological data analysis (TDA), and to assess how such variation is associated with measures of IQ and autism-related behaviors. To this end, we analyzed imaging and behavioral data from young boys (n = 52; aged 1.57-4.15 years) diagnosed with FXS. Application of topological methods to structural MRI data revealed two large subgroups within the study population. Comparison of these subgroups showed significant between-subgroup neuroanatomical differences similar to those previously reported to distinguish children with FXS from typically developing controls (e.g., enlarged caudate). In addition to neuroanatomy, the groups showed significant differences in IQ and autism severity scores. These results suggest that despite arising from a single gene mutation, FXS may encompass two biologically, and clinically separable phenotypes. In addition, these findings underscore the potential of TDA as a powerful tool in the search for biological phenotypes of neuropsychiatric disorders.
A Study on the Short Period Planning for the Distribution of Empty Sea-born Containers (1989)

Not only between two or more countries but between some regions in a big country like the U.S., there are a lot of problems for allocation and distribution of empty sea-borne containers because of international imbalance of trade situation. Authors presented an effective planning method for distribution of empty containers between two or more countries. For the distribution problem in a country, we propose another planning method since this problem contains different characteristics, i.e., short period movements of empty containers, and no consideration of state of container (i.e., full container or empty container). The distribution problem defined as the transshipment problem is formulated as transportation problem which is relatively easy to solve optimally. A case study for the distribution in the U.S. for 6 weeks shows that the total distribution cost by our method is 20 per cent less than that of the real one.

Consumption of one egg per day increases serum lutein and zeaxanthin concentrations in older adults without altering serum lipid and lipoprotein cholesterol concentrations. (2007)

Lutein and zeaxanthin accumulate in the macular pigment of the retina, and are associated with a reduced incidence of macular degeneration. The objective of the study was to investigate the effect of consuming 1 egg/d for 5‐wk on the serum concentrations of lutein, zeaxanthin, lipids and lipoprotein cholesterol in individuals greater than 60 y of age. In a randomized , cross‐over design , 33 subjects participated in the 18‐wk study, which included one run‐in and one washout period of no eggs prior to and between two five‐wk interventions of either consuming one egg or egg substitute/d. Serum lutein (26%) and zeaxanthin (38%) concentrations increased significantly after 5‐wk of 1 egg/d compared to the phase prior to consuming eggs. Serum concentrations of total cholesterol, LDL‐C, HDL‐C and triglycerides were not affected. These findings indicate that in older adults, 5 wk of consuming 1 egg/d significantly increases serum lutein and zeaxanthin concentrations without elevating serum lipids and lipoprotein cholesterol concentrations.

Total Synthesis of (±)‐Phomoidride D (2017)

Abstract Described herein is a synthetic strategy for the total synthesis of (±)‐phomoidride D. This highly efficient and stereoselective approach provides rapid assembly of the carbocyclic core by way of a tandem phenolic oxidation/intramolecular Diels–Alder cycloaddition. A subsequent SmI 2 ‐mediated cyclization cascade delivers an isotwistane intermediate poised for a Wharton fragmentation that unveils the requisite bicyclo[4.3.1]decene skeleton and sets the stage for synthesis completion.
Thermoelectric transport of Se-rich Ag2Se in normal phases and phase transitions (2014)

Small amount of Se atoms are used to tune the carrier concentrations (nH) and electrical transport in Ag2Se. Significant enhancements in power factor and thermoelectric figure of merit (zT) are observed in the compositions of Ag2Se1.06 and Ag2Se1.08. The excessive Se atoms do not change the intrinsically electron-conducting character in Ag2Se. The detailed analysis reveals the experiment optimum carrier concentration in Ag2Se is around 5 × 1018 cm−3. We also investigate the temperature of maximum zT and the thermoelectric transport during the first order phase transitions using the recently developed measurement system.

Development of an Expanded, High Reliability Cost and Performance Database for In Situ Remediation Technologies (2016)

Abstract : To make this large investment in groundwater remediation technologies more effective, end-users need quantitative, accurate, and reliable performance and cost data for commonly used remediation technologies. While the data from an individual site are valuable in guiding site-specific decisions, the real value for the remediation community as a whole is in compiling and analyzing data from a range of sites to provide insight on the overall performance of technologies. The overall objective of this work was to develop a comprehensive remediation performance and cost database.
Defining Digital Self-Harm (2017)

Self-harm is the infliction of pain or injury onto oneself. Though historically these behaviors were relegated to the fringes of communities, information technology now enables new ways to foster and encourage these dangerous activities. This paper defines the concept of digital self-harm as the online communication and activity that leads to, supports, or exacerbates, non-suicidal yet intentional harm or impairment of an individual's physical wellbeing. We outline a research agenda for the CSCW community to understand the correlation and possible causation of offline self-harm behaviors due to online activities, and to design and assess technologies focused on prevention, mitigation and treatment. CAUTION: This paper includes media that could potentially be triggering to those dealing with an eating disorder or with other self-harm related illnesses. Please use caution when reading or disseminating this paper.

Rapid synthesis and characterization of mesoporous nanocrystalline MgAl2O4 via flash pyrolysis route (2013)

In this work, we demonstrate an effective, fast and low-cost route for the synthesis of mesoporous MgAl2O4 powder. This synthesis procedure successfully reduces the overall synthesis time for nanosized MgAl2O4 powder from days to a few hours. The as-synthesized powder was found to be amorphous in nature. Upon calcination at 700 °C (2 h) and 900 °C (4 h) in presence of air, the as-synthesized MgAl2O4 amorphous powder was transformed into a disorder and order nanocrystalline phase respectively. The structural information of evolvement phase was analyzed through Rietveld refinement technique and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. The specific surface area of MgAl2O4 powder calcined at 700 °C and 900 °C was found to be 118.14 m2/g and 74.67 m2/g, respectively.
Influence of cerebrovascular sympathetic, parasympathetic, and sensory nerves on autoregulation and spontaneous vasomotion (1995)

The effect of removal of cerebrovascular sympathetic, parasympathetic or sensory nerve on brain cortical blood flow and spontaneous vasomotion during changes in systemic blood pressure was studied by laser-Doppler flowmetry in anaesthetized rats. Selective section of sympathetic fibres along the internal carotid artery markedly affected the ability to autoregulate, as measured in microvessels of the middle cerebral arterial territory. Removal of the parasympathetic nerves tended to reduce the ability to autoregulate, whereas no significant influence was found after sensory denervation. Following the denervations, spontaneous vasomotion was not significantly affected in frequency or amplitude.
Laparoscopic Augmentation Cystoplasty With or Without Continent Stoma Formation (2003)

Purpose: We report our techniques and outcomes for laparoscopic enterocystoplasty using various bowel segments. Method: A total of 17 patients with reduced bladder capacities due to neurogenic causes underwent laparoscopic augmentation enterocystoplasty with or without continent stoma formation. The bladder was mobilized and opened in the transverse direction for direct anastomosis with the appropriate bowel segment. All the steps were performed intracorporeally except for preparation of the bowel segment and establishment of the bowel continuity. Results: Blood loss was minimal, and there were no major postoperative complications. Conclusion: We conclude that laparoscopic enterocystoplasty is safe and effective and appears to be a first-line alternative to open enterocystoplasty approaches.

Lidocaine as Endotracheal Tube Cuff Inflating Agent (1970)

A prospective study was carried on 120 patients undergoing surgical operations lasting less than 90 minutes. The incidence of postoperative sore throat, dysphasia and hoarseness of voice with 2% lidocaine (Group L) as endotracheal cuff inflating agent was compared with that with distilled water (Group D) and air (Group A). Seventy two percent of lidocaine group in comparison to 60% distilled water group and 37% air group experienced none of the above complications during the entire study period. Only 5% in lidocaine group had sore throat after 22-24 hours compared to 20% in the distilled water group and 45% in the air group. Twenty three percent complained of dysphasia in both lidocaine and distilled water group after 1-3 hours compared to 45% in air group. After 22-24 hours it completely resolved in lidocaine group compared to 20% persisting in the other two groups. Twenty three percent complained of hoarseness in lidocaine group as compared to 35% and 55% in distilled water and air groups respectively after 1-3 hours. This completely resolved in lidocaine group but persisted in 20% and 45% in the distilled water and air group respectively after 22-24 hours. The results showed an advantage in using lidocaine as an endotracheal tube cuff inflating agent in reducing postoperative sore throat, dysphasia and hoarseness in comparison to distilled water and air.
