An Investigation Into Relationships Between Alternative Assessment And Pre-Service Elementary Teachers’ Beliefs About Mathematics, David Charles Coffey
An Investigation Into Relationships Between Alternative Assessment And Pre-Service Elementary Teachers’ Beliefs About Mathematics, David Charles Coffey
Dissertations
The purpose of this study was to examine how including alternative assessments in a reform-based mathematics course affects pre-service teachers’ mathematical beliefs. A single section of a mathematics course designed for elementary education majors that employed three different alternative assessments was the setting for the study.
A pre- and post-belief survey completed by students enrolled in the section under study represented the first level of data collection and analysis. The results of the pre-belief survey guided the selection of seven informants from the section and provided belief statements for the informants to verify during subsequent interviews. Based on the data …
Dtd-Miner: A Tool For Mining Dtds From Xml Documents, Moh Chuang Hue, Ee Peng Lim, Wee-Keong Ng
Dtd-Miner: A Tool For Mining Dtds From Xml Documents, Moh Chuang Hue, Ee Peng Lim, Wee-Keong Ng
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
XML documents are semistructured and the structure of the documents is embedded in the tags. Although XML documents can be accompanied by a DTD that defines the structure of the documents, the presence of a DTD is not mandatory. The difficulty in deriving the DTD for XML documents lies in the fact that DTDs are of different syntax as XML and that prior knowledge of the structure of the documents is required. In this paper, we introduce DTD-Miner, an automatic structure-mining tool for XML documents. Using a Web-based interface, the user will be able to submit a set of similarly …
The Complexity Of Decentralized Control Of Markov Decision Processes, Daniel S. Bernstein, Shlolo Zilberstein, Neil Immerman
The Complexity Of Decentralized Control Of Markov Decision Processes, Daniel S. Bernstein, Shlolo Zilberstein, Neil Immerman
Neil Immerman
Planning for distributed agents with partial state information is considered from a decisiontheoretic perspective. We describe generalizations of both the MDP and POMDP models that allow for decentralized control. For even a small number of agents, the finite-horizon problems corresponding to both of our models are complete for nondeterministic exponential time. These complexity results illustrate a fundamental difference between centralized and decentralized control of Markov processes. In contrast to the MDP and POMDP problems, the problems we consider provably do not admit polynomialtime algorithms and most likely require doubly exponential time to solve in the worst case. We have thus …
Study Of Architecture And Protocols For Reliable Multicasting In Packet Switching Networks, Shiwen Chen
Study Of Architecture And Protocols For Reliable Multicasting In Packet Switching Networks, Shiwen Chen
Dissertations
Group multicast protocols have been challenged to provide scalable solutions that meet the following requirements: (i) reliable delivery from different sources to all destinations within a multicast group; (ii) congestion control among multiple asynchronous sources. Although it is mainly a transport layer task, reliable group multicasting depends on routing architectures as well.
This dissertation covers issues of both network and transport layers. Two routing architectures, tree and ring, are surveyed with a comparative study of their routing costs and impact to upper layer performances. Correspondingly, two generic transport protocol models are established for performance study. The tree-based protocol is rate-based …
Time Domain Measurement Of The Nonlinear Refractive Index In Optical Fibers And Semiconductor Film, Hernando Garcia
Time Domain Measurement Of The Nonlinear Refractive Index In Optical Fibers And Semiconductor Film, Hernando Garcia
Dissertations
A new technique to measure the nonlinear refractive index n2 in optical fibers and semiconductor films has been developed. It is based on the time delay two-beam coupling of very intense picosecond laser pulses that have been self-phase modulated in the nonlinear optical medium. The two beams are coupled in a slow responding medium that is sensitive to time dependent phase distortions. We determine that the amount of phase distortion experienced by the pulse is proportional to the nonlinear refractive index of the medium, This time domain approach can also be applied to optical fiber amplifiers in the presence …
Genetically Evolved Dynamic Control For Quadruped Walking, Giorgio Grasso
Genetically Evolved Dynamic Control For Quadruped Walking, Giorgio Grasso
Dissertations
The aim of this dissertation is to show that dynamic control of quadruped locomotion is achievable through the use of genetically evolved central pattern generators. This strategy is tested both in simulation and on a walking robot. The design of the walker has been chosen to be statically unstable, so that during motion less than three supporting feet may be in contact with the ground.
The control strategy adopted is capable of propelling the artificial walker at a forward locomotion speed of ~1.5 Km/h on rugged terrain and provides for stability of motion. The learning of walking, based on simulated …

Modeling, Design And Fabrication Of Thin-Film Microcrystalline Silicon Solar Cells, Wei Chen
Dissertations
The modeling, design and fabrication of low-cost thin-film microcrystalline silicon(µcSi) solar cells is studied in this thesis. The cell, considered in this investigation, utilizes low-cost glass as the substrate and microcrystalline Si (µc-Si) as the active layer. A comprehensive refractive index (n) and extinction coefficient (k) model of silicon as function of doping, temperature and wavelength is developed to assist the optical design of the cell. In order to obtain acceptable short circuit current density (Jsc) from the cell, it is found that the thickness of the silicon thin film should be more than 10µm. To get the best light …

The problems facing organizations today are increasingly focused around systems integration and the creation of information flows.
Software modeling based on the assembly of reusable components to support software development has not been successfully implemented on a wide scale. Several models for reusable software …
Active Feedback Control Of A Wake Flow Via Forced Oscillations Based On A Reduced Model, Fu Li
Active Feedback Control Of A Wake Flow Via Forced Oscillations Based On A Reduced Model, Fu Li
Dissertations
As it is well known, the flow past a cylinder consists of a symmetric recirculation bubble of vortices at small Reynolds numbers. As Reynolds number increases, the bubble becomes unstable and develops into a Karman vortex street of alternating vortices. This instability is responsible for the occurrence of large amplitude oscillations in the lift and an increase in the mean drag. It was previously shown by numerical simulation that the mechanism driving the bubble instability is well mimicked by Foppl's four dimensional potential flow model where the bubble is represented by a saddle point. In this work, we design two …
Component-Based Software Engineering, Zhiyuan Wang
Component-Based Software Engineering, Zhiyuan Wang
Dissertations
To solve the problems coming with the current software development methodologies, component-based software engineering has caught many researchers' attention recently. In component-based software engineering, a software system is considered as a set of software components assembled together instead of as a set of functions from the traditional perspective. Software components can be bought from third party vendors as off-the-shelf components and be assembled together.
Component-based software engineering, though very promising, needs to solve several core issues before it becomes a mature software development strategy. The goal of this dissertation is to establish an infrastructure for component-based software development. The author …

Airflow Characteristics Of Commonly Used Temperature Radiation Shields*, X. Lin, Kenneth G. Hubbard, George E. Meyer
School of Natural Resources: Faculty Publications
The air temperature radiation shield is a key component in air temperature measurement in weather station networks; however, it is widely recognized that significant errors in the measured air temperature exist due to insufficient airflow past the air temperature sensor housed inside the shield. During the last several decades, the U.S. National Weather Service has employed a number of different shields in air temperature measurements. This paper focuses on the airflow characteristics inside air temperature shields including the Maximum–Minimum Temperature System (MMTS), the Gill shields, and the Cotton Region Shelter (CRS).
Average airspeed profiles and airflow efficiency inside the shields …
A Study Of Droplet Burning In The Nearly Adiabatic Limit, Juan C. Gomez
A Study Of Droplet Burning In The Nearly Adiabatic Limit, Juan C. Gomez
Dissertations
We consider a small drop of liquid fuel that burns in an oxidizing gaseous environment and translates slowly (relative to flow 'at infinity') under the action of gravity. Practical applications include the burning of liquid fuels as sprays in domestic and industrial oil-fired burners, diesel engines, and liquid-propellant rocket motors. More relevant to the simple physical set-up of the present study are wellcharacterized laboratory experiments on the burning of a single, isolated fuel drop.
The drop burns in a nearly spherical, diffusion flame, flame sheet regime. We consider a specific example, or limit, referred to as 'nearly adiabatic burning', in …
Numerical Study Of Particle Dynamics In A Falling-Ball Viscometer, Peiwen Hou
Numerical Study Of Particle Dynamics In A Falling-Ball Viscometer, Peiwen Hou
Dissertations
The falling-ball viscometer is a device where a spherical particle falls along the axis of a circular cylinder filled with viscous fluid. The various classical results for this device are developed under the assumption that the Reynolds number of the flow is zero, i.e., Stoke's flow. Inertial effects are not taken into account. To better understand the dynamics of the particle sedimentation process and the role of inertia in this process, we implemented a numerical simulation.
The ADI (Alternating Direction Implicit) scheme is widely used to solve the vorticity-stream function formulation of the Navier-Stokes equation in axisymmetric geometries. However, a …
Development And Characterization Of Techniques For Neuro-Imaging Registration, Carlo Ciulla
Development And Characterization Of Techniques For Neuro-Imaging Registration, Carlo Ciulla
Theses
Three automated techniques were developed for the alignment of Neuro-Images acquired during distinct scanning periods and their performance were characterized. The techniques are based on the assumption that the human brain is a rigid body and will assume different positions during different scanning periods. One technique uses three fiducial markers, while the other two uses eigenvectors of the inertia matrix of the Neuro-Image, to compute the three angles (pitch, yaw and roll) needed to register the test Neuro-Image to the reference Neuro-Image. A rigid body transformation is computed and applied to the test Neuro-Image such that it results aligned to …

Lethal Control Of Piscivorous Birds At Aquaculture Facilities In The Northeast United States: Effects On Populations, Bradley F. Blackwell, Richard A. Dolbeer, Laura A. Tyson
United States Department of Agriculture Wildlife Services: Staff Publications
Predation by piscivorous birds is considered a substantial threat to the aquaculture industry. However, lethal control of birds at aquaculture facilities has raised concerns about the effects on the distribution and abundance of populations of the species killed. We examined the relationship between numbers of piscivorous birds reported killed under U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) permits at aquaculture facilities in New York, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania and species population trends within the respective states. The USFWS issued 26 permits to 9 facilities from 1985 through September 1997. Eight species appeared on permits, but only six species were reported killed: …

Diffractive Dijets With A Leading Antiproton In P̅P Collisions At √S = 1800 Gev, T. Affolder, Kenneth A. Bloom, Collider Detector At Fermilab Collaboration
Kenneth Bloom Publications
We report results from a study of events with a leading antiproton of beam momentum fraction 0.905 <xF < 0.965 and 4-momentum transfer squared |t|< 3 GeV2 produced in p̅p collisions at √s =1800 GeV at the Fermilab Tevatron collider. Approximately 2% of the events contain two jets of transverse energy ETjet > 7 GeV. Using the dijet events, we evaluate the diffractive structure function of the antiproton and compare it with expectations based on results obtained in diffractive deep inelastic scattering experiments at the DESY ep collider HERA.

The Influence Of Surface Diffusion Of Adsorbed Intermediate On Hydrogen Evolution Reaction At Pt/Nafion Composite Electrodes, Wei-Yi Tu, Lei Su, Wen-Jun Liu, Bing-Liang Wu
Journal of Electrochemistry
The decrease of over_potential of hydrogen evolution reaction at Pt black powder/Nafion microelectrode, comparing that of the Pt microdisk/Nafion electrode, was evident from the polarization curves of the Pt microdisk/Nafion electrode, platinized Pt micrdisk/Nafion electrode and Pt black powder/Nafion microelectrode. It is also evidenced by a plane Pt electrode with an additional free Pt surface. The surface diffusion and the surface recombination reaction of the adsorbed intermediate at the free surface of the Pt particles were supposed. It is an additional reaction path that induced the decrease of the concentration of the adsorbed intermediate. Thereby, the over_potential decreased.

Electrochemical Codeposition Of Palladium And Glucose Oixdase In The Presence Of Glycine As Complexing Agent, Kan Zhu, Hui-Huang Wu
Journal of Electrochemistry
Glycine and Pd(NH 3) 2Cl 2 consist of a solution for the electrochemical codeposition of Pd and glucose oxidase (GOD) to prepare a metallized enzyme electrode. The experiments by UV/V spectroscopy show that the complexing of Pd ion with glycine can occur, which makes the plating bath has relatively stable chemical composition in a certain pH range. The voltammetric experiments indicate that the presense of glycine decreases the potential of Pd deposition ,facilitating to prevent the formation of palladium hydride. The appropriate conditions for the electrochemical codeposition of Pd and GOD are discussed.
