User-Centered Evaluations of Ubicomp Applications

Author(s)
Jean C. Scholtz, L Arnstein, M Kim, T Kindberg, Sunny Consolvo
This paper describes some properties of ubiquitous computing applications that warrant user-centered evaluation and describes a number of approaches carried out...

Quantum Efficiency of Spectral UV on Polyurethanes

Author(s)
Tinh Nguyen, Jonathan W. Martin, E Byrd, E Embree
Polyurethanes (PU) are used extensively as exterior building materials. However, PU undergoes degration during outdoor exposure. The quantum efficiency of...

The DUC Summarization Evaluations

Author(s)
Donna K. Harman, Paul D. Over
There has been a long history of research in text summarization by both the text retrieval and the natural language processing communities, but evaluation of...

The New UV Radiometry Facility at SURF

Richard A. Allen, Michael W. Cresswell, William F. Guthrie, Loren W. Linholm, H Bogardus, J V. Martinez de pinillos, B A. Am ende, Christine E. Murabito, M H. Bennett
Prototype linewidth reference materials with Critical Dimensions (CDs) as narrow as 70 nm have been patterned in (110) silicon-on-insulator films. The sidewalls...

Molecular Basis of Lubrication

Author(s)
Stephen M. Hsu
Lubrication is an art that has been practiced for thousands of years from the early days of our human civilization. The study of lubricatin as a science began...

Intelligent Control For Off-Road Driving

Author(s)
Karl Murphy, Marilyn N. Abrams, Stephen B. Balakirsky, Tommy Chang, Tsai Hong Hong, Alberto Lacaze, Steven Legowik
The NIST robot vehicle, a HMMWV with sensors and computer controlled actuators, detects how traversable the terrain is near the vehicle and computes its path...

SCUBA-2: Application of LTD Technology

Author(s)
William Duncan, Wayne Holland, Damian Audley, D R. Kelly, Tully Peacock, Peter Hastings, Michael MacIntosh, Kent D. Irwin, Sae Woo Nam, Gene C. Hilton, Steven Deiker, Anthony Walton, Alan Gundlach, William Parkes, Camilla Dunare, Peter Ade, Ian Robson
We outline the need for SCUBA 2, its goals and specifications. We give reasons for the choice of the low temperature detector technology of TES arrays and SQUID...
