The ISS on Campus: The Intercollegiate Socialist Society, 1905-1921
… study: the Intercollegiate Socialist Society (ISS) </p> <p>The ISS was founded in 1905. It led no rallies or sit-ins; nor were any of its members martyred at the hands of the national guard. Its tactics were peaceful- in fact, they can hardly be called "tactics." Far from occupying college …

Two-stage path planning approach for designing multiple spacecraft reconfiguration maneuvers and application to SPHERES onboard ISS
… testbed onboard the International Space Station (ISS). The maneuvers were designed using two different two-stage algorithms presented in this work. It also discusses the lessons learned from these tests, and the recommendations to improve future ISS reconfiguration experiments.

A critical study of information system strategy formulation in a public sector context.
… examination of Information System Strategy (ISS) formation in a public sector context, namely the Police Service in Scotland. Despite the apparent importance attached to ISS, and the proliferation of many methods to assist those engaged in ISS formation, the practice of ISS formation remains …

An Evaluation Of The In-School Suspension Program At One High School
… the effectiveness of in school suspension (ISS) program at one high school. The literature reviewed argues although ISS is a necessity in the current climate of education, ineffective ISS programs can interrupt academic progress. Often used in isolation and as a holding area for code of …

Factors Associated With Foster Parent Instrumental Social Support For Physical Activity
… for specific instrumental social support (ISS) such as providing transportation and paying activity fees. Parental PA literacy (comprehension of PA information and guidelines) may also be associated with parents' support of children's PA. To date no studies have assessed how psychosocial …

Detecting Impervious Cover with Artificial Lighting in Astronaut Photography from the International Space Station
… imagery from the International Space Station (ISS) to detect impervious cover. The artificial lighting emitted from a city’s nightscape is used as a proxy for imperviousness. This paper expands on their research by focusing on the nightscape in San Antonio, TX from December 2015, and by …

A Lyapunov-based small-gain theorem for interconnected switched systems
… that are not input-to-state stable (non-ISS). We have shown that, providing the switching signals neither switch too frequently nor activate non-ISS subsystems for too long, a small-gain theorem can be used to conclude global asymptotic stability (GAS) of the interconnected system. For …

In-School Suspension: An Effective Deterrent of Student Misbehavior or Just Another Form of Discipline
… explain the relationships that exist within the ISS program and the effect of those relationships on deterring student misbehavior within a particular critical case study. These concepts helped to explain even further the relationships and the human lived experiences that occurred with this …

Neutron production in a spherical phantom aboard the international space station
… laboratories on the International Space Station (ISS) has confirmed that prolonged duration space missions are now becoming standard practice and as such, the need to better understand the potential risk of space radiation to Astronaut’s health, has become a priority for long mission planner. The …

Computation of Lyapunov functions and stability of interconnected systems
… of computing integral inputto- state stable (iISS) Lyapunov functions by Zubov's method and auxiliary systems in Chapter 3. For an iISS dynamic system with perturbation, we introduce an auxiliary system which is uniformly asymptotically stable. Then a robust Lyapunov function for the auxiliary …

An interpretive approach to analysing the role and value of information systems in Jordanian financial organisations
Analysing investments in ISs in order to maximise benefits has become a prime concern, especially for private corporations. No formula of equilibrium exists that could link the injected amounts and accrued returns. The relationship is simply not straightforward. This thesis is based upon empirical …

INTERACTIVE EFFECT OF DIETARY FIBRE AND IMMUNE CHALLENGE ON THREONINE REQUIREMENT AND INTESTINAL BARRIER FUNCTION IN GROWING PIGS
… fibre (DF) and immune system stimulation (ISS) are thought to limit amino acid availability for protein deposition (PD) and growth in pigs. Fibre and threonine (Thr) may also play an important role in intestinal barrier function. Therefore, this thesis evaluated the independent and combined …

Optical characterization of complex mechanical and thermal transport properties
… impulsive stimulated light scattering (ISS), also known as transient grating spectroscopy, was used to investigate phonon mediated thermal transport in semiconductors and mechanical degrees of freedom linked to structural relaxation in supercooled liquids. In ISS measurements, short …
