This publication discusses, at a high level, the ubiquitous threats facing email systems today and impresses the need to secure these systems. This article will...

Epitaxial Graphenes on Silicon Carbide

Author(s)
Joseph A. Stroscio, Walt A. de Heer, Phillip First, Claire Berger, Thomas Seyller, Jeong-Sun Moon
The materials science of graphene grown epitaxially on the hexagonal basal planes of SiC crystals is reviewed. We show that the growth of epitaxial graphene on...

Confidence Regions for Parameters of Linear Models

Author(s)
Andrew L. Rukhin
A method is suggested for constructing a conservative confidence region for the parameters of a general linear model. In meta-analytical applications, when the...

High-Frequency Dielectric Measurements: A Tutorial

Author(s)
James R. Baker-Jarvis, Michael D. Janezic, Donald C. DeGroot
KNOWLEDGE of the response of materials to electromagnetic (EM) fields in the frequency range of radio frequency (RF) through terahertz (THz) is critical to...

Internal quantum efficiency modeling of silicon photodiodes

Author(s)
Thomas R. Gentile, Steven W. Brown, Keith R. Lykke, Ping-Shine Shaw, John T. Woodward IV
Results are presented for modeling of the internal quantum efficiency (IQE) of silicon photodiodes in the 400 nm to 900 nm wavelength range. The IQE data are...

Rheology and Setting of High Volume Fly Ash Mixtures

Author(s)
Dale P. Bentz, Chiara F. Ferraris
While high volume fly ash (HVFA) concretes can be designed and produced to meet 28-d strength requirements and often even exceed the durability performance of...

Author(s)
Catherine A. Remley
This is an Editorial for the April, 2010 issue of IEEE Microwave Magazine. Kate Remley, the Editor-in-Chief, writes about timely topics for the members of the...

On Hash Functions Using Checksums

Author(s)
Praveen Gauruvarum, John M. Kelsey, L. Knudsen, S. Thomsen
We analyse the security of iterated hash functions that compute an input dependent checksum which is processed as part of the hash computation. We show that a...
