THE PROGRAM PATHING TRUST MODEL FOR CRITICAL SYSTEM PROCESS AUTHORIZATION
… – the concept of a “trusted” or tamperproof system has become even more important. Some applications have become so critical that it is imperative that they run as intended, without interference. The consequences of these systems not running as intended could be catastrophic. This research …

Biologically inspired digital fabrication
Objects and systems in nature are models for the practice of sustainable design and fabrication. From trees to bones, natural systems are characterized by the constant interplay of creation, environmental response, and analysis of current structural constituents, as part of a larger dynamic system. …

Investigation of hot gas desulfurization utilizing a transport reactor
… chosen as the sulfur removal requirement for the system. Process design activities were then undertaken to design the experimental unit. Maintaining the reactor gas flowrate above the choking velocity and removal of excessive heat caused by the chemical reaction were the two principle operating …

Element Detection in Japanese Comic Book Panels
… possible today. Our approach uses an expert system and a machine learning system. The expert system process information from images and inspires feature sets which help train the machine learning system. The expert system detects speech bubbles based on heuristics. The machine learning system …

The development of a hybrid virtual reality/video view-morphing display system for teleoperation and teleconferencing
… real and artificial coordinate frames of this system reduces registration errors commonly found in Augmented Reality applications. In addition, the user’s eyepoint is computed locally so that any scene lag resulting from head movement will be less than those from alternative technologies using …

High Moisture Extrusion of Oatmeal
… convenient to consumers. Low moisture extrusion processing is one of the most widely used methods to produce ready to eat breakfast cereals; however, there has been little research carried out to determine if high moisture extrusion methods would be viable. This study evaluated the economic and …

Understanding the value proposition unmanned aerial systems provide during the phases of the crop Cycle
… As well as constructing an OPM (Object Process Methodology) model to describe the system and demonstrate the stakeholder interactions and system process and sub-process decomposition. It also provides visual display of how the value is delivered across these processes. The final aspect …

Change Analysis Across Version Histories of Systems Models
Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) elevates models as first-class artifacts throughout the development process of a system’s lifecycle. This makes it easier to develop standard tools for automated analysis and overall management of a system process; thereby, saving cost and minimizing errors. …

The Effect of Early Dietary Intervention on Alzheimer's Disease-Related Pathology and Cognitive Function in Mice
… protein folding, and the immune system process in AD mice. However, delaying HFD consumption until 6 months-ofage, when AD pathology is ubiquitous, did not provide neuroprotection in AD mice, as there was no change in cortical Aβ deposition in 11-month-old mice. Surprisingly, …

A Robust Dynamic State and Parameter Estimation Framework for Smart Grid Monitoring and Control
… security, and resiliency of electric power systems depends on the availability of fast, accurate, and robust dynamic state estimators. These estimators should be robust to gross errors on the measurements and the model parameter values while providing good state estimates even in the …

Accelerating the Commercial Implementation of Electromethanogenic Reactors
… However, traditional anaerobic digestion (AD) systems are often economically and technically unsuitable for small and medium enterprises (SMEs), limiting broader adoption. In contrast, electromethanogenic reactors offer a next-generation solution: scalable, decentralised systems that couple …

Understanding neural mechanisms of strategic learning: correlates, causality, and applications
This is a systematic study on learning in the repeated game from the neuroeconomics perspective. Theoretically, learning theory has been developed to complement the traditional game theory in seeking to explain how and which equilibria might arise as a consequence of nonequilibrium dynamics among …
