Optical Properties Of Gan Grown On Zno By Reactive Molecular Beam Epitaxy, F. Hamdani, A. Botchkarev, W. Kim, H. Morkoç, M. Yeadon, J. M. Gibson, S.-C. Y. Tsen, David J. Smith, Donald C. Reynolds, David C. Look, K. R. Evans, Cole W. Litton, William C. Mitchel, P. Hemenger

High quality wurtzite GaN epilayers have been grown on ZnO(0001) substrates by reactive molecular beam epitaxy. Photoluminescence and reflectivity measurements point to high quality presumably due to the near match of both the crystal lattice parameter and the stacking order between GaN and ZnO. In addition, the good films lack the characteristic yellow photoluminescence band. Any misorientation of the GaN epilayer planes with respect to the ZnO substrate is not detectable with polarized reflectivity. The x-ray double crystal diffraction measurements indicate this misorientation is much smaller than those for GaN epilayers on SiC and Al₂O₃ . © …

Structural Issues In Active Rule Systems, James Bailey, Guozhu Dong, Kotagiri Ramamohanarao

Kno.e.sis Publications

Active database systems enhance the functionality of traditional databases through the use of active rules or ‘triggers’. There is little consensus, though, on what components should be included in a rule system. In this paper, the expressive power of some simple active database rule systems is examined and the effect of choosing different features studied. Four important parameters of variation are presented, namely the rule language, the external query language, the meta rule language and the pending rule structure. We show that each of these is highly influential in determining the expressiveness of the rule system as a whole, and …

An Error Handling Framework For The Orbwork Workflow Enactment Service Of Meteor, Davasish Worah, Amit P. Sheth, Krzysztof J. Kochut, John A. Miller

Kno.e.sis Publications

Workflow Management Systems (WFMSs) can be used to re-engineer, streamline, automate, and track organizational processes involving humans and automated information systems. However, the state-of-the-art in workflow technology suffers from a number of limitations that prevent it from being widely used in large-scale mission critical applications. Error handling is one such issue. What makes the task of error handling challenging is the need to deal with errors that appear in various components of a complex distributed application execution environment, including various WFMS components, workflow application tasks of different types, and the heterogeneous computing infrastructure.

In this paper, we discuss a top-down …

Topology And Logic Programming Semantics, Pascal Hitzler

Computer Science and Engineering Faculty Publications

Logic programming employs logic as a programming language. Thus a logic program consists of a set of clauses of a certain form most often a subset of the clauses of first order logic viewed as axioms. Computation in this paradigm is deduction from these axioms via some interpreter.

Logic programming semantics is concerned with background theory for logic programming. It tries to provide models for logic programs to give them their intended meaning and to connect them with practically implementable interpreters.

Nexus Literary Journal

Nexus is a magazine that began as an insert in the Wright State Guardian student newspaper in 1965 and has since been published semi-regularly. It began only accepting creative writing, but has since expanded to include illustrations, photography and other non-written art forms. Today, it is published in a digital format and accepts submissions from around the country, though it maintains its commitment to the Wright State Community.

Algorithms For Adapting Materialised Views In Data Warehouses, Mukesh Mohania, Guozhu Dong

Kno.e.sis Publications

In this paper we consider the problem of materialised view adaptation in data warehouses. Materialised views are important in data warehousing where they are used to speed up query processing on large amounts of data. User requirements change over time, which may change the definitions of views dynamically. For such situations, the question arises whether the materialised views should be recomputed from scratch for every change in the definition or they should be obtained by adapting old materialised views. Changes to a view definition may be expensive, if the view is recomputed from scratch. Therefore, it is worthwhile to examine …

Effect Of Multistep Wafer-Annealing On Main Traps In Czochralski-Grown Semi-Insulating Gaas, Z-Q. Fang, David C. Look, H. Yamamoto, H. Shimakura

Physics Faculty Publications

Both multistep wafer‐annealed (MWA) and ingot‐annealed semi‐insulating (SI) GaAs wafers, grown by the Czochralski technique, are characterized by using normalized thermally stimulated current (NTSC) spectroscopy. Two main NTSC traps, T₃ at 200 K and T₅ at 140 K, which are thought to be related to arsenic vacancy defects, are found to be largely suppressed by MWA processes, especially by a new MWA process. Concomitant with a decrease of these traps, a significant increase of the threshold electrical field for both the thermal quenching of T₅ and the low‐temperature photocurrent saturation has been observed

Overture - Calvino's Mr. Palomar, Charles S. Taylor

Wine Journey: Tasting Dwelling Learning at The Kitchen Table

This is not a culinary essay. The bread of interest is Scottish, discussed by a philosopher, Hume, whose craft is often ridiculed precisely because it bakes no bread. The archaicallynamed cheese is Parisian; the Italian watercress constitutes part of a salad of Italo Calvino's last protagonist, Mr. Palomar. Still, contrary to appearances, my concern is no picnic. If we think of the pleasure that one can derive from bread, cheese and salad we begin to turn in the right direction. Kant tells us that beauty is determined by the feeling of pleasure in the subject who has become disinterested. Kant …

On The Portability Of Behavioral Vhdl-93, Krishnaprasad Thirunarayan, Robert Ewing

Kno.e.sis Publications

Goossens defined a structural operational semantics for a subset of VHDL-87 and proved that the parallelism present in VHDL is benign. We extend this work to include shared variables in VHDL-93 that changes the underlying semantic model. In the presence of shared variables, non-deterministic execution of VHDL-93 processes destroys the unique meaning property. We identify and characterize a class of portable VHDL-93 descriptions for which unique meaning property can be salvaged.
