Shark Bay Prawn And Scallop Fisheries: Final Review Report, Western Australia. Department of Fisheries 2010 Department of Primary Industries and Regional Development, Western Australia

Shark Bay Prawn And Scallop Fisheries: Final Review Report, Western Australia. Department Of Fisheries

Fisheries management papers

The Shark Bay Prawn Fishery and Shark Bay Scallop Fishery operate in the same general areas of Shark Bay (although there are some differences in their areas of operation). The interrelationship between trawling activities for the two target species (prawns and scallops) has raised both management challenges and industry conflicts over time. Harvest level settings for each fishery (in the form of effort levels and the timing and/or location of fishing) are independently set, on the basis of recruitment and abundance surveys of each target species. However, each industry sector strongly believes that the interactions between the fisheries arise because …


Dc/Dc Converter For A Small Scale Wind Hydrogen System, Joel M. Jacobs 2010 University of Nebraska--Lincoln

Dc/Dc Converter For A Small Scale Wind Hydrogen System, Joel M. Jacobs

Theses, Dissertations, and Student Research from Electrical & Computer Engineering

An electronic converter is designed for an isolated renewable energy system. In this system, energy produced by a small wind turbine is used to extract hydrogen from water. Unique aspects of this application that affect the performance of the converter will be defined. Design considerations of the individual components will be discussed. Calculations on performance and validation of those calculations are also presented. Lastly, an economic analysis of the produced hydrogen will be performed.


Cs 790: Optimizing Compliers For Modern Architectures, Meilin Liu 2010 Wright State University - Main Campus

Cs 790: Optimizing Compliers For Modern Architectures, Meilin Liu

Computer Science & Engineering Syllabi

This course studies compiler optimization for modern architectures. Between parsing the input program and generating the target machine code, optimizing compilers perform a wide range of program transformations on a program to improve its performance. In this course we focus on data dependence analysis, program transformations and loop transformations, loop scheduling, and a combination of these optimizing techniques.

Cs 740: Algorithms, Complexity And The Theory Of Computability, Pascal Hitzler

Computer Science & Engineering Syllabi

What does it mean to say that some computational problem is intrinsically more difficult than some other problem? How can I claim that I have found a good algorithmic solution? The study of these questions gives rise to an area of Theoretical Computer Science called Complexity Theory, which is based on a systematic and thorough formal study of the complexity of problems with respect to their algorithmic solvability, using Turing machines as main conceptual tool. In this class, we will understand how problem and algorithmic complexity is measured, and discuss some of the main complexity classes arising from this study. …

Chemistry Faculty Research

The spliceosome is a complex small nuclear RNA (snRNA)-protein machine that removes introns from pre-mRNAs via two successive phosphoryl transfer reactions. The chemical steps are isoenergetic, yet splicing requires at least eight RNA-dependent ATPases responsible for substantial conformational rearrangements. To comprehensively monitor pre-mRNA conformational dynamics, we developed a strategy for single-molecule FRET (smFRET) that uses a small, efficiently spliced yeast pre-mRNA, Ubc4, in which donor and acceptor fluorophores are placed in the exons adjacent to the 5′ and 3′ splice sites. During splicing in vitro, we observed a multitude of generally reversible time-and ATP-dependent conformational transitions of individual pre-mRNAs. The …

Maximal Class Numbers Of Cm Number Fields, Ryan C. Daileda, Raju Krishnamoorthy, Anton Malyshev 2010 Trinity University

Maximal Class Numbers Of Cm Number Fields, Ryan C. Daileda, Raju Krishnamoorthy, Anton Malyshev

Mathematics Faculty Research

Fix a totally real number field F of degree at least 2. Under the assumptions of the generalized Riemann hypothesis and Artin's conjecture on the entirety of Artin L-functions, we derive an upper bound (in terms of the discriminant) on the class number of any CM number field with maximal real subfield F. This bound is a refinement of a bound established by Duke in 2001. Under the same hypotheses, we go on to prove that there exist infinitely many CM-extensions of F whose class numbers essentially meet this improved bound and whose Galois groups are as large …


On The Non-Existence Of A Projective (75, 4,12, 5) Set In Pg(3, 7), Aaron C.S. Chan, James A. Davis, Jonathan Jedwab 2010 University of Richmond

On The Non-Existence Of A Projective (75, 4,12, 5) Set In Pg(3, 7), Aaron C.S. Chan, James A. Davis, Jonathan Jedwab

Math and Computer Science Faculty Publications

We show by a combination of theoretical argument and computer search that if a projective (75, 4, 12, 5) set in PG(3, 7) exists then its automorphism group must be trivial. This corresponds to the smallest open case of a coding problem posed by H. Ward in 1998, concerning the possible existence of an infinite family of projective two-weight codes meeting the Griesmer bound.

Computer Science & Engineering Syllabi

In this course, you will learn about more about one particular way to address some of the challenges and issues associated with successful software development. Specifically, you will learn and use the Personal Software Process (PSP), designed to help individual software practitioners become more adept at their craft through the use of project planning, project tracking, defect analysis, review and verification activities, software measurement, and process management. This course-and the PSP-are somewhat unique in that they aim to help software engineers become more successful, not by examining issues associated with large-scale development (as is the case with many software engineering …
