Issues Related To The Emergence Of The Information Superhighway And California Societal Changes, Iistps Report 96-4, Jan L. Botha, Roger Salstrom, R. Benjamin Knapp

Mineta Transportation Institute

The Norman Y. Mineta International Institute for Surface Transportation Policy Studies (IISTPS) at San José State University (SJSU) conducted this project to review the continuing development of the Internet and the Information Superhighway. Emphasis was placed on an examination of the impact on commuting and working patterns in California, and an analysis of how public transportation agencies, including Caltrans, might take advantage of the new communications technologies. The document reviews the technology underlying the current Internet “structure” and examines anticipated developments. It is important to note that much of the research for this limited-scope project was conducted during 1995, and …

Sputtered Alumina Film Properties, Balroop Grewal

Master's Projects

Alumina is used as undercoat, gap, and overcoat layer in thin film head manufacturing. This project was a study of effect of sputter deposition parameters such as target power, substrate bias, pressure, deposition temperature, and preheating of the wafer on the alumina film properties. It was found that argon inclusion in the film greatly influences the film structure. Argon inclusion increases with substrate bias. The alumina film showed higher etch rates and stress at higher argon inclusion, A designed experiment showed that preheating the wafer improves the adhesion of the alumina film. The confirmation run shows that there was no …

How Effective Is The Level Of Fair Market Rent In Overcoming Barriers To Residential Mobility For The Section 8 Existing Housing Program?, Frank L. Guido

Settlement pattern refers to the counts of Section 8 Households by census tract within the County. FMR refers to the maximum gross rent (rent plus utilities) for which a home of a given bedroom size can be rented by a tenant household assisted with a certificate in the Section 8 Housing Allowance Program of the U.S. Housing Act of 1937 as amended in 1974. The …

Use Of Embedded Wireless Networks Within Instrumentation Products: Analysis And Performance Mapping Of A Distributed System, Behzad Parvahan

Master's Projects

Traditional instrumentation systems can be categorized into two groups: generic and custom systems. The former are standard, off-the-shelf machines, while the latter consist of specialty systems which perform target-specific tasks. While it is difficult to accurately characterize these specialty systems as a group (due to the varied nature of their functions), the standard machines are generally single units that provide limited customization and mobility.

This report explores the feasibility of a system that maintains the functionality of standard test equipment, while adding a scaleable, mobile, distributed architecture that reduces size, subsystem power consumption, and ultimately overall cost when compared to …
