Many computer systems are designed according to engineering and technology principles and are typically difficult to learn and use. The fields of human-computer interaction, interface design, and human factors have made significant contributions to ease of use and are primarily concerned with the interfaces between systems and users, not with the structures that are often more fundamental for designing truly human-centered systems. The emerging paradigm of human-centered computing (HCC)-which has taken many forms-offers a new look at system design. HCC requires more than merely designing an artificial agent to supplement a human agent. The dynamic interactions in a distributed system …

Software for use with patient records is challenging to design and difficult to evaluate because of the tremendous variability of patient circumstances. A method was devised by the authors to overcome a number of difficulties. The method evaluates and compares objectively various software products for use in emergency departments and compares software to conventional methods like dictation and templated chart forms. The technique utilizes oral case simulation and video recording for analysis. The methodology and experiences of executing a study using this case simulation are discussed in this presentation.

Medical Error: Is The Solution Medical Or Cognitive?, Jiajie Zhang, Vimla L. Patel, Todd R. Johnson
Faculty, Staff and Student Publications
Is the solution for medical errors medical or cognitive? In this AMIA2001 panel on medical error, we argued that medical error is primarily an issue for cognitive science and engineering, not for medicine, although the knowledge of the practice of medicine is essential for the research and prevention of medical errors. The three panelists presented studies that demonstrate that cognitive research is the foundation for theories of medical errors and interventions of error reductions.

Scale-Invariant Behavior In A Spatial Game Of Prisoners’ Dilemma, Yun Fong Lim, Kan Chen, Ciriyam Jayaprakash
Research Collection Lee Kong Chian School Of Business
A spatially extended version of the game of prisoner’s dilemma, originally proposed by Nowak and May, is modified to include stochastic updating and found to exhibit scale-invariant behavior. Two critical regimes with different scaling behaviors are found; the corresponding exponents have been determined numerically. Spatially, the critical states are characterized by the existence of delicately balanced networks of defectors separating domains of cooperators; temporally, the evolution of the critical states following local perturbations is characterized by avalanches of various magnitudes, which cause restructuring of the networks of defectors on all scales.

On War As Hell, Roger P. Alford
On War As Hell, Roger P. Alford
Journal Articles
This article addresses the question of the proper international standard for war reparations. War reparations are especially hard on the credibility and efficacy of international law. Wars are hard because the suffering is so great and reparations so onerous that often there is no mutuality of interest between the victorious governments and their own constituent victims. Wars force victorious States to make hard choices between looking backward to repair the harm caused to constituent victims and looking forward to a relationship with a potential strong and strategic ally. Just as the conduct of war, in its great features, is...policy itself, …

Debating The Law Of Sanctions, Mary Ellen O'Connell
Debating The Law Of Sanctions, Mary Ellen O'Connell
Journal Articles
After years of United Nations-mandated sanctions against Iraq, human rights advocates began charging the UN Security Council with genocide in its use of 'sanctions of mass destruction'. Following the charges, a full debate began on the law of sanctions. The article recounts this debate, setting it in the context of two earlier rounds of discussion on the lawful use of sanctions. Those earlier debates resulted in general consensus that the Security Council was both free to use sanctions whenever it wanted and that sanctions should be comprehensive, air-tight and subject to enforcement. Sanctions of this description were imposed on Haiti …

Come One, Come All But Watch Your Back - Missouri Sides With Business Owners In Negligent Security Action, Matthew J. Landwehr
Missouri Law Review
In terms of sheer volume, premises-liability cases form one of the largest subcategories within the broad spectrum of tort law. Courts are dealing with this influx of lawsuits in a variety of ways. Some courts act as gatekeepers, devising rigid tests to ensure only the most deserving cases get to a jury. Other courts are more lenient, adopting flexible tests that allow more cases to reach juries. Which approach is better is the subject of much debate. This Note will discuss Missouri’s law governing negligent security actions, its application in Hudson v. Riverport Performance Arts Centre, its policy ramifications, and …
Does The Missouri Safe Schools Act Past The Test - Expelling Disruptive Students To Keep Missouri's Schools Safe, Cathi M. Kraetzer
Does The Missouri Safe Schools Act Past The Test - Expelling Disruptive Students To Keep Missouri's Schools Safe, Cathi M. Kraetzer
Missouri Law Review
The Missouri Court of Appeals for Easter District of Missouri interpreted the Missouri Safe Schools Act of 1996 in Hamrick ex rel. Hamrick v. Affton School District Board of Education to require a public school to admit for enrollment a student who had been expelled from a non-public school. Shortly after the court’s decision, the Missouri General Assembly amended the dispositive language of Section 167.171.4. It is not clear that public school districts in Missouri can deny enrollment to students suspended or expelled from both public and non-public schools. This Law Summary discusses whether the statutory change furthers the goas …
Supernovae Neutrinos As A Probe For Neutrino Mass And Supernovae Explosion Mechanism, Robert Jason Gross
Supernovae Neutrinos As A Probe For Neutrino Mass And Supernovae Explosion Mechanism, Robert Jason Gross
Electronic Theses and Dissertations 2000 - 2009
In recent years there have been several neutrino detectors built to detect solar, atmospheric, and cosmic neutrinos. In this dissertation, we used a Monte Carlo approach to model both the SuperKamiokande (SuperK) detector in Japan, and the Sudbury Neutrino Observatory (SNO) in Canada. A neutrino flux produced by a supernova code was implemented to simulate a realistic signal. An analysis of the minimum neutrino mass which could be detected was then performed for SuperK which produced discrepancies for the zero tau mass case when compared to previous work using a smooth emission spectrum as the incident neutrino source. As a …

Step Toward Violence Prevention: "Non-Violent Communication" As Part Of A College Curriculum, Susan M. Blake
Electronic Theses and Dissertations 2000 - 2009
Structural hierarchies are deeply embedded in institutions such as our educational system. It can be argued that this type of model reinforces an aggressive worldview and fosters an atmosphere of violence. Teaching students to communicate compassionately should promote empathy, discourage verbal aggression and reinforce a more peaceful worldview. To accomplish this, educators need a means of replacing hegemony that assumes hierarchy and aggressive conflict are inevitable. Marshall Rosenberg's (2001) Nonviolent Communication (NVC) may provide educators with an appropriate tool. Rosenberg's model counters the prevailing hegemony making it an ideal candidate to explore in relation to these issues. This paper examines …
Structural, Magnetic, And Electrical Properties Of Ruthenium Oxides, Juscelino Batista Leao
Structural, Magnetic, And Electrical Properties Of Ruthenium Oxides, Juscelino Batista Leao
Electronic Theses and Dissertations 2000 - 2009
Early reports of antiferromagnetism in CaRuO3 will be discussed within the framework of our recent experiments. We have observed that slight Ru deficiency (∼4%) leads to a weak feature in the magnetic susceptibility. Temperature-dependant time-of-flight (TOF) neutron powder diffraction data revealed no long-range magnetic order in the Ruthenium deficient CaRu 0.96O3 sample. More careful analysis of magnetization data indicates that the feature in chi(T) can be attributed to a weak ferromagnetic phase which forms below an ordering temperature of T = 147 K. This phase is destroyed with Lanthanum doping (∼2%) and annealing in reducing conditions dramatically shifts this feature. …
Statistical Physics For Materials Classification, Hugues Jean Lassalle
Statistical Physics For Materials Classification, Hugues Jean Lassalle
Electronic Theses and Dissertations 2000 - 2009
Genetic algorithms (GA) and clustering techniques are used to study and classify materials. An analysis of the convergence speed of GA is carried out using advanced probability theory and random walk concepts. The determination of the ground-state of multicomponent alloys and Ising models with long-range interactions is accomplished using a genetic algorithm. A new GA operator, the domain-flip, is introduced and its efficiency is compared to that of traditional GA operators, crossover and mutation. The domain-flip operator destroys phase-boundaries by flipping all bits of a given domain at the same time. This operator turns out to be crucial in extracting …
Structural, Electrical And Magnetic Properties Of Transition Metal Nickel Oxides, Guoqing Wu
Structural, Electrical And Magnetic Properties Of Transition Metal Nickel Oxides, Guoqing Wu
Electronic Theses and Dissertations 2000 - 2009
Neutron powder diffraction, high pressure, magnetic susceptibility, and heat capacity measurements, as well as x-ray powder diffraction and iodometric titration, have been conducted on transition metal nickel oxides (TMOs), representative Ruddlesden-Popper (RP) phases Lan+1NinO3n+1 (n = 1, 2, ..., infinity) and hole-doped La2-xSr xNiO4 (0 < x < 1.2). The first complete study of La 2-xSrxNiO4 (0 < x < 1.2) and La n+1NinO3n+1 (n = 2 and 3) phases under high pressure is produced. Strong direct experimental evidence for polaron dominated electrical conduction in these charge transfer (CT) gap La2-xSr xNiO4 compounds is provided. Temperature evolution of the crystal structure of La2-xSrxNiO4 (x = 1/4 and 1/3) is revealed through neutron powder diffraction, structural relationships among n = 1, 2, and 3 phases are exhibited, and charge density wave (CDW) in multilayer Lan+1NinO3n+1 phases is strongly suggested. No superconductivity is observed at pressures up to 1.6 GPa and temperatures down to 4.2 K.
Unearthing The Witch: Diversion And Device In Shakespeare's "The Tempest" And Middleton's "The Witch", Anna Capri Hutcheson
Unearthing The Witch: Diversion And Device In Shakespeare's "The Tempest" And Middleton's "The Witch", Anna Capri Hutcheson
Electronic Theses and Dissertations 2000 - 2009
Renaissance ideology positioned the witch as deviant and dangerous. Using common cultural perceptions, Shakespeare's and Middleton's dramas help both to define and to produce alternative notions of the witch. Analyzing the function of the witch as cultural icon reveals why the cultural community scapegoated certain women, particularly "wise women." These women were often older and unattached, uncanny in their powers of perception and unruly in their refusal to conform to societal norms. Such women challenged the discourse of power employed by patriarchy. The Tempest requires the reader to read through Prospero's propaganda to examine his motive for vilifying Sycorax. In …
Three Impenetrable Particles On A Ring And The Quantum Billiard In A Triangle, Charlotte Joan Dirk
Three Impenetrable Particles On A Ring And The Quantum Billiard In A Triangle, Charlotte Joan Dirk
Electronic Theses and Dissertations 2000 - 2009
Remarkable similarities are found in the problem of three impenetrable quantum mechanical particles on a ring and the problem of the quantum billiard in a triangle. If the energy contributed by the motion of the center of mass in the ring problem is subtracted from the total energy, the energy eigenvalues of the particles on the ring are proportional to the energy eigenvalues of the wave function in the corresponding triangle. The eigenvalues derived from the ring solution are unique to that triangle and that energy level. A mathematical relationship is derived, which connects the masses of the particles on …
