Integration Of Blockchain Technology Into Automobiles To Prevent And Study The Causes Of Accidents, John Kim Dec 2021

Integration Of Blockchain Technology Into Automobiles To Prevent And Study The Causes Of Accidents, John Kim

Electronic Theses, Projects, and Dissertations

Automobile collisions occur daily. We now live in an information-driven world, one where technology is quickly evolving. Blockchain technology can change the automotive industry, the safety of the motoring public and its surrounding environment by incorporating this vast array of information. It can place safety and efficiency at the forefront to pedestrians, public establishments, and provide public agencies with pertinent information securely and efficiently. Other industries where Blockchain technology has been effective in are as follows: supply chain management, logistics, and banking. This paper reviews some statistical information regarding automobile collisions, Blockchain technology, Smart Contracts, Smart Cities; assesses the feasibility …


Agent-Based Modeling And Simulation Approaches In Stem Education Research, Shanna R. Simpson-Singleton, Xiangdong Che Jan 2019

Agent-Based Modeling And Simulation Approaches In Stem Education Research, Shanna R. Simpson-Singleton, Xiangdong Che

Journal of International Technology and Information Management

The development of best practices that deliver quality STEM education to all students, while minimizing achievement gaps, have been solicited by several national agencies. ABMS is a feasible approach to provide insight into global behavior based upon the interactions amongst agents and environments. In this review, we systematically surveyed several modeling and simulation approaches and discussed their applications to the evaluation of relevant theories in STEM education. It was found that ABMS is optimal to simulate STEM education hypotheses, as ABMS will sensibly present emergent theories and causation in STEM education phenomena if the model is properly validated and calibrated.


Gradeboard: A Cloud-Based Solution For A Student Grading System, Manoj Kulkarni Jan 2013

Gradeboard: A Cloud-Based Solution For A Student Grading System, Manoj Kulkarni

Theses Digitization Project

The purpose of the GradeBoard application is to develop a mobile application as a front end to interact with data stored in a cloud-based system. It leverages cloud computing features such as auto-scaling, load-balancing and NoSQL data stores. The GradeBoard application helps instructors keep track of student activities and gives students an opportunity to know how they are performing by comparing their grades with other students through a game-like leader board interface, thus creating a competitive environment in the class. Contains source code.


Online Examination System, Yuvesh Kumar Singh Jan 2013

Online Examination System, Yuvesh Kumar Singh

Theses Digitization Project

The purpose of this project focused on how to implement a secure environment for online-examination in an academic and business environment without the need of any special network topologies and hardware devices. It will not only reduce the instructor's load, but will also enhance the system flexibility to fit every instructor's needs and from the examinees point of view. Contains source code.


Web Based Entry Level Mathematics Test, Okbun Baek Jan 2007

Web Based Entry Level Mathematics Test, Okbun Baek

Theses Digitization Project

The primary purpose of the project is to develop a web site where students can practice entry level mathematics questions.


Interactive Multimedia E-Learning System, Wen-Yi Shih Jan 2006

Interactive Multimedia E-Learning System, Wen-Yi Shih

Theses Digitization Project

This project is an interactive, multimedia, on-line learning system. It provides a friendly and simple interface to let kids easily learn their ABC's. Teachers and administrators can modify and view files and database information from a normal web browser to customize the student's learning experience. The web browser is written in Java Server Page (JSP), Hyper Text Markup Language (HTML) and Macromedia Flash.


An Empirical Study: Usage Of The Unified Modeling Language In The Bachelor Of Science And Master Of Science Degree Programs At California State University, San Bernardino, Cynthia Patrice Farquhar Jan 2005

An Empirical Study: Usage Of The Unified Modeling Language In The Bachelor Of Science And Master Of Science Degree Programs At California State University, San Bernardino, Cynthia Patrice Farquhar

Theses Digitization Project

The Unified Modeling Language (UML) became part of the curriculum in the Department of Computer Science at California State University, San Bernardino (CSUSB) in September 1997. The intent was to integrate the object-oriented paradigm in the undergraduate courses. Subsequently, this use has shifted to the graduate level. The purpose of this thesis is: 1) to determine what the students know about UML, 2) to reveal if the students were using UML, 3) to clarify how students use the UML.


Why Are Those Computers Sitting Over There Gathering Dust, Bradford Ralph Austin Jan 2005

Why Are Those Computers Sitting Over There Gathering Dust, Bradford Ralph Austin

Theses Digitization Project

The purpose of this project was to create electronic books (E-books) for kindergartens to read during their center time. The E-books are intended for kindergarten teachers to use to help their students learn to read while utilizing the technology resources in their classroom. These E-books are teacher created so the cost is minimal and they can be copied and distributed to each student without worrying about copyright laws. Teachers can customize them to fit the current thematic unit they are teaching and once created, they can be used repeadedly without being damaged like paper books.


Advising Module: Graduate Application System For The Computer Science Graduate Program, Yen-Hsi Chiang Jan 2005

Advising Module: Graduate Application System For The Computer Science Graduate Program, Yen-Hsi Chiang

Theses Digitization Project

The Advising Module: Graduate Application System is a Web-based application system that provides quality advice on coursework for prospective as well as continuing graduate students. It also serves as an improved tracking system for the graduate coordinator. Authorized parties may obtain access to status evaluations, master's options, and permitted course waivers, course listings, personal data, various advisement forms, application usage statistics, and automatic data updating process reports.


Wiki-Style Administration Of Online Course Content, Jianmin Wang Jan 2003

Wiki-Style Administration Of Online Course Content, Jianmin Wang

Theses Digitization Project

A Wiki is a piece of server software that allows users to freely create and edit Web page content using any Web browser. This project created the program, "Wiki-Style Administration of Online Course Content" (WAOCC) which can be used as a teaching assistant board. Students can edit their works online and the instructor can review the work and correct it directly if necessary from the WAOCC.


The Development, Design, And Theory Of Educational Interactive Multimedia Software, William James Chapman Jan 2002

The Development, Design, And Theory Of Educational Interactive Multimedia Software, William James Chapman

Theses Digitization Project

This project provides teachers and students with background information regarding software design. Specifically it will focus on design theory including content, interface, graphics, animation, navigation, and audio issues which may arise during the design and construction of educational multimedia software. The design issues represented here are demonstrated in the software "You can make a difference ... Human Rights".
