A Small World: Lawrence Grad In Pakistan Helps Steer Afghan Refugee To Appleton, Lawrence University Sep 2003

A Small World: Lawrence Grad In Pakistan Helps Steer Afghan Refugee To Appleton, Lawrence University

Press Releases

Compared to fleeing the Taliban, Zubair Hakim figures Freshman Studies will be a piece of cake.

When Hakim speaks of his soon-to-be-official status as a member of Lawrence University’s 2003 freshmen class, the voice of the 21-year-old refugee from Afghanistan suggests appreciation more than excitement. Understandably so.

His journey to the Appleton campus, thanks in part to some gentle guidance by a Lawrence alumna, has meant overcoming obstacles far more difficult than posting a high ACT score or writing a compelling application essay.

A member of Afghanistan’s Farsi-speaking Tajik tribe, Hakim once called Kabul his hometown. But seven years ago …

Schema Matching And Data Extraction Over Html Tables, Cui Tao Sep 2003

Schema Matching And Data Extraction Over Html Tables, Cui Tao

Theses and Dissertations

Data on the Web in HTML tables is mostly structured, but we usually do not know the structure in advance. Thus, we cannot directly query for data of interest. We propose a solution to this problem for the case of mostly structured data in the form of HTML tables, based on document-independent extraction ontologies. The solution entails elements of table location and table understanding, data integration, and wrapper creation. Table location and understanding allows us to locate the table of interest, recognize attributes and values, pair attributes with values, and form records. Data-integration techniques allow us to match source records …


A Descriptive Performance Model Of Small, Low Cost, Diskless Beowulf Clusters, Curtis R. Nielson Sep 2003

A Descriptive Performance Model Of Small, Low Cost, Diskless Beowulf Clusters, Curtis R. Nielson

Theses and Dissertations

Commodity supercomputing clusters known as Beowulf clusters, have become a low cost alternative to traditional supercomputers. Beowulf clusters combine inexpensive computers and specialized software to achieve supercomputing power. The processing nodes in a diskless Beowulf cluster do not have a local hard disk unlike the nodes in most commodity clusters. Research has provided performance information for diskless clusters built with expensive, high performance equipment. Beowulf clusters use commodity off-the-shell hardware, and little information is available about their performance. This research includes the construction of several diskless Beowulf clusters. Using the NAS Parallel Benchmarks, the performance of these clusters was measured. …

Graph-Theoretic Techniques For Web Content Mining, Adam Schenker Sep 2003

Graph-Theoretic Techniques For Web Content Mining, Adam Schenker

USF Tampa Graduate Theses and Dissertations

In this dissertation we introduce several novel techniques for performing data mining on web documents which utilize graph representations of document content. Graphs are more robust than typical vector representations as they can model structural information that is usually lost when converting the original web document content to a vector representation. For example, we can capture information such as the location, order and proximity of term occurrence, which is discarded under the standard document vector representation models. Many machine learning methods rely on distance computations, centroid calculations, and other numerical techniques. Thus many of these methods have not been applied …

Characterization And Modeling Of Planar Spiral Inductors And Pad Stack Parasitic Effects, John Capwell Sep 2003

Characterization And Modeling Of Planar Spiral Inductors And Pad Stack Parasitic Effects, John Capwell

USF Tampa Graduate Theses and Dissertations

This thesis concentrates on RF/microwave characterization and modeling of planar spiral inductors and pad stack parasitics. The inductors varied in size from 1.9 to 15.3 nH. Several approaches were examined for modeling the planar spiral inductors. The approach developed herein is built around an existing composite model (available in commercial computer-aided design software), with added series and shunt impedances at both the input and output of the existing composite model. Artificial neural network (ANN) software was used to determine the correction impedance values. Another approach investigated was to model the S-parameters of the inductor using a space- mapping model of …

A Test Of The Cultural Ecological Model With Chinese And Caucasian Parents., Elaine Hulei Sep 2003

A Test Of The Cultural Ecological Model With Chinese And Caucasian Parents., Elaine Hulei

Theses and Dissertations

The purpose of this study was to examine the cultural effect on parenting practices based on Ogbu's (1981) cultural ecological model. In a given society, parenting beliefs are a reflection of that society's cultural values and traditions. For example, verbosity, a parenting style, is considered a parenting mistake in Western culture; however, it may not be a-mistake in Chinese culture. Thirty-one immigrant Chinese and 30 Caucasian Americans mothers were recruited for this study. Three questionnaires were employed to measure parenting styles, child behaviors associated with parenting styles and the possible relationship between acculturation level and Chinese immigrant parenting. These questionnaires …
