• #### A Computational Model of Jetliner Taxiing ﻿

(2012)
The Next Generation Air Transportation System (NextGen) is transforming the way planes move on the ground as well as in the sky. Some of the proposed changes, such as automated scheduling algorithms to generate taxi ...
• #### A computational model of routine procedural memory ﻿

(2009)
Cooper and Shallice (2000) implemented a computational version of the Norman and Shallice's (1986) Contention Scheduling Model (CSM). The CSM is a hierarchically organized network of action schemas and goals. Botvinick and ...
• #### A computational study of vehicle routing applications ﻿

(1999)
This thesis examines three specific routing applications. In the first model, the scheduling of home health care providers from their homes, to a set of patients, and then back to their respective homes, is performed both ...

(1964)
• #### A computer-based tutor for engineering design ﻿

(2000)
Modern computer technology facilitates development of rich learning environments that can enhance a student's ability to learn; however, none of the existing educational software systems can support the drill-and-practice ...
• #### A concept of home for the modern urban stranger ﻿

(1994)
The issues of domesticity in the contemporary urban realm will be examined in the following manner. I will first investigate the implications of what it means for a 'table' and 'chair' to exist in a space both physically ...
• #### A connectionist approach to autonomous robotic navigation ﻿

(1991)
Robotic navigation has been an area of intense research since the onset of mobile robot development. The usefulness of mobile robots ultimately reside in their ability to move and interact with the environment. Current ...
• #### A consistent and transparent solution for caching dynamic Web content ﻿

(2005)
Caching is an effective means for reducing load on web servers, especially for those that dynamically generate documents in dynamic web applications. While adding caching to a web application can greatly reduce response ...

(1971)
• #### A constitutive equation for creep in glassy polymers and composites ﻿

(1988)
The creep of polymethyl methacrylate was investigated in four-point flexural loading mode. Measurements were taken at temperatures from 8$\sp\circ$C to 55$\sp\circ$C, time periods up to 450 hours and stresses ranging from ...
• #### A continuous kinetic assay for RecA-mediated DNA strand exchange using DNA-based flourescent signal ﻿

(2000)
A continuous kinetic assay for RecA-mediated DNA strand exchange using a DNA-based fluorescent signal has been successfully developed and employed. 2-Aminopurine deoxyribonucleoside phosphoradmite was synthesized and ...

(1970)

(1967)

(1969)
• #### A contrast of guideline recommendations and Tullis's prediction model for computer displays: Should text be left-justified? ﻿

(1988)
Two experiments investigated the effect of layout complexity for performance at varying levels of practice on four types of information extraction tasks. Layout complexity is defined as the number of unique horizontal and ...

(1973)

(1971)

(1968)
• #### A correspondence between Scheme and the lambda(,upsilon)-CS-calculus ﻿

(1989)
We study the relationship between the programming language Scheme and the $\lambda\sb{v}$-CS-calculus. To this end, we define a correspondence between Scheme and $\Lambda\sb{CS}$-terms--the language of the calculus--where ...
• #### A cost model for membrane filtration ﻿

(1992)
A model is developed that calculates capital and operating cost of cross-flow membrane filtration as a function of relevant design parameters. An expression for capital cost is empirically derived from information gathered ...
