Paul Young Interview For The Lest We Forget Collection Of Oral Histories, Paul Young, Judy Leasure Dec 2003

Paul Young Interview For The Lest We Forget Collection Of Oral Histories, Paul Young, Judy Leasure

Lest We Forget (MS-396)

Judy Leasure interviewed Paul Young about his work with the mentally ill and developmentally disabled. The interview was part of the Lest We Forget Collection of oral histories that was created to capture the stories of those involved with mental health and those with developmental disabilities. There are two transcripts to cover the full interview. The project focused on stories and experiences of people from Ohio that lived at, worked in, or dealt with large institutions and the modern movement to smaller home settings and modern treatment of mental illness and developmental disabilities.

Comparisons Of Electron Fluxes Measured In The Crustal Fields At Mars By The Mgs Magnetometer/Electron Reflectometer Instrument With A B Field-Dependent Transport Code, Michael W. Liemohn, David L. Mitchell, Andrew F. Nagy, Jane L. Fox, Tamara W. Reimer, Yingjuan J. Ma Dec 2003

Comparisons Of Electron Fluxes Measured In The Crustal Fields At Mars By The Mgs Magnetometer/Electron Reflectometer Instrument With A B Field-Dependent Transport Code, Michael W. Liemohn, David L. Mitchell, Andrew F. Nagy, Jane L. Fox, Tamara W. Reimer, Yingjuan J. Ma

Physics Faculty Publications

We compare Mars Global Surveyor (MGS) magnetometer/electron reflectometer data with results from a B field–dependent kinetic transport code for ‘‘superthermal’’ electrons. The photoelectrons created on crustal field loops, when they are on the dayside, allow for the exploration of the magnetic topology and the upper atmospheric density structure. A case study of a typical orbit of the MGS satellite through the strong crustal field region in the southern hemisphere of Mars is examined. The results indicate that the low solar wind dynamic pressure during the selected orbit allowed for the expansion of the crustal field line to relatively high altitudes. …


Fabrication And Characterization Of N-Zno/P-Algan Heterojunction Light-Emitting Diodes On 6h-Sic Substrates, Ya I. Alivov, E. V. Kalinina, A. E. Cherenkov, David C. Look, B. M. Ataev, A. K. Omaev, M. V. Chukichev, D. M. Bagnall Dec 2003

Fabrication And Characterization Of N-Zno/P-Algan Heterojunction Light-Emitting Diodes On 6h-Sic Substrates, Ya I. Alivov, E. V. Kalinina, A. E. Cherenkov, David C. Look, B. M. Ataev, A. K. Omaev, M. V. Chukichev, D. M. Bagnall

Physics Faculty Publications

We report on the fabrication of n-ZnO/p-AlGaN heterojunction light-emitting diodes on 6H-SiC substrates. Hydride vapor phase epitaxy was used to grow p-type AlGaN, while chemical vapor deposition was used to produce the n-type ZnO layers. Diode-like, rectifying I-V characteristics, with threshold voltage ~3.2 V and low reverse leakage current ~10-7 A, are observed at room temperature. Intense ultraviolet emission with a peak wavelength near 389 nm is observed when the diode is forward biased; this emission is found to be stable at temperatures up to 500 K and shown to originate from recombination within the ZnO.


Semantic (Web) Technology In Action: Ontology Driven Information Systems For Search, Integration, And Analysis, Amit P. Sheth, Cartic Ramakrishnan Dec 2003

Semantic (Web) Technology In Action: Ontology Driven Information Systems For Search, Integration, And Analysis, Amit P. Sheth, Cartic Ramakrishnan

Kno.e.sis Publications

Semantics is seen as the key ingredient in the next phase of the Web infrastructure as well as the next generation of information systems applications. In this context, we review some of the reservations expressed about the viability of the Semantic Web. We respond to these by identifying a Semantic Technology that supports the key capabilities also needed to realize the Semantic Web vision, namely representing, acquiring and utilizing knowledge. Given that scalability is a key challenge, we briefly review our observations from developing three classes of real world applications and corresponding technology components: search/browsing, integration, and analytics. We distinguish …

Validating And Refining Clusters Via Visual Rendering, Keke Chen, Ling Liu Nov 2003

Validating And Refining Clusters Via Visual Rendering, Keke Chen, Ling Liu

Kno.e.sis Publications

The automatic clustering algorithms are known to work well in dealing with clusters of regular shapes, e.g. compact spherical/elongated shapes, but may incur higher error rates when dealing with arbitrarily shaped clusters. Although some efforts have been devoted to addressing the problem of skewed datasets, the problem of handling clusters with irregular shapes is still in its infancy, especially in terms of dimensionality of the datasets and the precision of the clustering results considered. Not surprisingly, the statistical indices works ineffective in validating clusters of irregular shapes, too. We address the problem of clustering and validating arbitrarily shaped clusters with …

Evidence Of The Zn Vacancy Acting As The Dominant Acceptor In N-Type Zno, F. Tuomisto, V. Ranki, K. Saarinen, David C. Look Nov 2003

Evidence Of The Zn Vacancy Acting As The Dominant Acceptor In N-Type Zno, F. Tuomisto, V. Ranki, K. Saarinen, David C. Look

Physics Faculty Publications

We have used positron annihilation spectroscopy to determine the nature and the concentrations of the open volume defects in as-grown and electron irradiated (Eel=2   MeV, fluence 6×1017   cm-2) ZnO samples. The Zn vacancies are identified at concentrations of [VZn]≃2×1015   cm-3 in the as-grown material and [VZn]≃2×1016   cm-3 in the irradiated ZnO. These concentrations are in very good agreement with the total acceptor density determined by temperature dependent Hall experiments. Thus, the Zn vacancies are dominant acceptors in both as-grown and irradiated ZnO.

Towards (Semi-) Automatic Generation Of Bio-Medical Ontologies, Vipul Kashyap, Cartic Ramakrishnan, Thomas Rindflesch

Kno.e.sis Publications

The design and construction of domain specific ontologies and taxonomies requires allocation of huge resources in terms of cost and time. These efforts are human intensive and we need to explore ways of minimizing human involvement and other resources. In the biomedical domain, we seek to leverage resources such as the UMLS1 Metathesaurus and NLP-based applications such as MetaMap2 in conjunction with statistical clustering techniques, to (partially) automate the process. This is expected to be useful to the team involved in developing MeSH and other biomedical taxonomies to identify gaps in the existing taxonomies, and to be able to quickly …


Semantic E-Workflow Composition, Jorge Cardoso, Amit P. Sheth Nov 2003

Semantic E-Workflow Composition, Jorge Cardoso, Amit P. Sheth

Kno.e.sis Publications

Systems and infrastructures are currently being developed to support Web services. The main idea is to encapsulate an organization's functionality within an appropriate interface and advertise it as Web services. While in some cases Web services may be utilized in an isolated form, it is normal to expect Web services to be integrated as part of workflow processes. The composition of workflow processes that model e-service applications differs from the design of traditional workflows, in terms of the number of tasks (Web services) available to the composition process, in their heterogeneity, and in their autonomy. Therefore, two problems need to …

External And Intrinsic Anchoring In Nematic Liquid Crystals: A Monte Carlo Study, Nikolai V. Priezjev, G. Skacej, R. A. Pelcovits, S. Zumer Oct 2003

External And Intrinsic Anchoring In Nematic Liquid Crystals: A Monte Carlo Study, Nikolai V. Priezjev, G. Skacej, R. A. Pelcovits, S. Zumer

Mechanical and Materials Engineering Faculty Publications

We present a Monte Carlo study of external surface anchoring in nematic cells with partially disordered solid substrates, as well as of intrinsic anchoring at free nematic interfaces. The simulations are based on the simple hexagonal lattice model with a spatially anisotropic intermolecular potential. We estimate the corresponding extrapolation length b by imposing an elastic deformation in a hybrid cell-like nematic sample. Our estimates for b increase with increasing surface disorder and are essentially temperature independent. Experimental values of b are approached only when both the coupling of nematic molecules with the substrate and the anisotropy of nematic-nematic interactions are …
