Does Market Timing Contribute To The Cattle Cycle?, Stephen F. Hamilton, Terry L. Kastens
Does Market Timing Contribute To The Cattle Cycle?, Stephen F. Hamilton, Terry L. Kastens
Economics
Recent evidence suggests that cyclical cattle inventories are driven by exogenous shocks. This article examines a second possible contributing factor to the cattle cycle: a market timing effect that arises from individual attempts to maintain countercyclical inventories. The model uncovers an important conceptual point: to the extent that cycles are driven by exogenous shocks, a representative producer should outperform one who maintains a constant inventory; whereas, for cycles induced by market timing, a representative producer should underperform one with a constant inventory. Simulated net returns over 1974–98 reveal that a constant-inventory manager significantly outperformed the representative U.S. producer, which indicates …

The Financial Impact Of Animal Related Phosphorus Management On Vermont Dairy Farms, Alyssa Dodd, Catherine Halbrendt, Charles F. Nicholson
The Financial Impact Of Animal Related Phosphorus Management On Vermont Dairy Farms, Alyssa Dodd, Catherine Halbrendt, Charles F. Nicholson
Agribusiness
Excessive phosphorus loading has been identified as the primary cause of decreasing water quality in Lake Champlain. Dairy farms are the major source of phosphorus pollution to the lake and are targeted to reduce phosphorus run-off. The goal of this research is to determine the farm-level financial impact of phosphorus management on different sizes of Vermont dairy farms. Farm financial performance following implementation of manure management is simulated by farm size (60 cows, 150 cows, and 350 cows) over a ten-year time horizon using the Farm Level Income and Policy Simulation Modeling System (FLIPSim). Results indicate that implementation of Milking …
Energetic Dynamics And Anuran Breeding Phenology: Insights From A Dynamic Game, Shannon J. Mccauley, Sarah S. Bouchard, Brian J. Farina, Kavita Isvaran, Suhel Quader, Daniel W. Wood, Colette M. St. Mary
Energetic Dynamics And Anuran Breeding Phenology: Insights From A Dynamic Game, Shannon J. Mccauley, Sarah S. Bouchard, Brian J. Farina, Kavita Isvaran, Suhel Quader, Daniel W. Wood, Colette M. St. Mary
Biological Sciences
We designed a dynamic optimization model to examine anuran-breeding phenologies. We evaluated the fitness consequences for males adopting one of four alternative strategies: calling, satelliting, foraging, or hiding. Various factors potentially influence male behavior, including energy reserves, predation risk, cost of calling, probability of finding food, distribution of male energy states in the population, and probability of surviving to another breeding season. We manipulated these parameters to determine how strongly each affects breeding phenology and chorus structure. Manipulating parameters related to the energetic costs and benefits of individual decisions, we generated the three basic patterns of anuran breeding phenology: explosive, …

Instructional Design Agents – An Integration Of Artificial Intelligence And Educational Technology, Erika Rogers, Carol Scheftic, Emilio Passi, Sharon Lanaghan
Computer Science and Software Engineering
The purpose of this paper is to introduce a project whose goal is to design and develop a productivity tool which helps academic instructors in their course preparation. This tool will be composed of a number of “instructional design agents”, which combine techniques in human-computer interaction, artificial intelligence and educational theory. The first of these agents is based on Bloom’s Taxonomy, and a brief overview of this work in progress is presented.
Neural Networks And Structured Knowledge: Rule Extraction And Applications, Franz J. Kurfess
Neural Networks And Structured Knowledge: Rule Extraction And Applications, Franz J. Kurfess
Computer Science and Software Engineering
As the second part of a special issue on "Neural Networks and Structured Knowledge," the contributions collected here concentrate on the extraction of knowledge, particularly in the form of rules, from neural networks, and on applications relying on the representation and processing of structured knowledge by neural networks. The transformation of the low-level internal representation in a neural network into higher-level knowledge or information that can be interpreted more easily by humans and integrated with symbol-oriented mechanisms is the subject of the first group of papers. The second group of papers uses specific applications as starting point, and describes approaches …

An Addendum To Harrington's Northern Salinan Place Names, Terry L. Jones, Betty Rivers, Andrea M. Maliarik, Terry L. Joslin, Douglas Alger
An Addendum To Harrington's Northern Salinan Place Names, Terry L. Jones, Betty Rivers, Andrea M. Maliarik, Terry L. Joslin, Douglas Alger
Social Sciences
Rivers and Jones (1993) reported the locations of 21 place names in the upper San Antonio Valley and adjacent coast of Monterey County, California, that were noted by Salinan speakers in John Peabody Harrington's field notes from 1922 to 1932. Surface reconnaissance and review of recently completed archaeological survey reports have led to the identification of 11 additional Salinan places in the upper San Antonio Valley and refinement in the location of three others. Archaeological sites in the vicinity of named places tentatively suggest that Salinan settlements are marked by clusters of small middens and bedrock mortars.

Evaluation Of Anti-Fouling Paints, Charles M. Burt
Evaluation Of Anti-Fouling Paints, Charles M. Burt
BioResource and Agricultural Engineering
Algae and other growth on Replogle flumes, often used as flow measurement devices in irrigation canals, can effect the accuracy of measurements in those canals. Research was conducted to find a product that would prevent buildup on the flumes. Hard anti-fouling paint, designed to be applied to concrete rather than fiberglass, wood, steel or iron, was the type of paint used in this study.

Mental Models For Introductory Csc Concepts, Jennifer J. Wheeler, Erika Rogers
Mental Models For Introductory Csc Concepts, Jennifer J. Wheeler, Erika Rogers
Computer Science and Software Engineering
If is hypothesized that the development of mental models for a concept can lead to improved learning. The purpose of this paper is to identify, quantify, and analyze the mental models of students beginning to program in the UNIX environment. By focusing on 4 basic concept, this study abstracts current mental models from students and hypothesizes ways of improving these models. Ultimately, the results of the study will be incorporated into the design and implementation of a multimedia tutor. This tutor will attempt to teach people how to develop mental models in order to improve their learning.
