Etsu Today - Fall 2004, University Marketing And Communication, East Tennessee State University

ETSU Today [magazine]

The legislative session that concluded in the spring of 2004 brought much-needed hope and some tangible results to higher education in Tennessee. Realizing that work still must be done, we are greatly appreciative of the salary improvements that were approved for our faculty and staff. ETSU also succeeded in acquiring some $11 million in capital outlay funding to renovate the old Sherrod Library, providing critically needed space for our College of Nursing. We have the largest nursing enrollment in Tennessee, and we have plans to increase enrollment in the B.S.N. program by 50 percent, a major step in our continued …

Pain Relief Using Continuous Bupivacaine Infusion In The Paravertebral Space After Loin Incision, Ziad M. Awwad, Bashir A. Atiyat

Saudi Medical Journal

OBJECTIVE: Continuous bupivacaine paravertebral nerve block after thoracotomy has been shown to reduce postoperative pain. This study was designed to determine whether paravertebral nerve block using bupivacaine infused through a catheter placed intraoperatively, can reduce postoperative pain, and analgesia requirements after loin incision. METHODS: Thirty-four patients undergoing renal surgery through loin incision at Jordan University Hospital, Amman, Jordan, from October 2001 to March 2003, were randomized either to receive bupivacaine 0.5% or normal saline through a catheter positioned intraoperatively against the costovertebral joints in the paravertebral space. The infusions were continued until the evening of the third postoperative day. Patients …

Crisis Planning In The Lodging Industry: A Response To The “It Can’T Happen To Us” Mentality, John E. Spillan, William Crandall

Mountain Plains Journal of Business and Technology

Although the crisis management literature addressing the needs of larger organizations is plentiful, little has been written on this subject concerning the lodging industry. This study examines the perceptions and experiences with crisis events among hotel and motel owners/managers located throughout U.S.In particular, we investigate if concern is generated more from the occurrence of a crisis event or from the presence of a crisis management team. The findings reveal that of the lodging facilities surveyed, 59.8%of the 174 respondents indicated they have a crisis management team, and 74% experienced a crisis of some type within the last three years.This study …

Common Forensic Authentication And Non-Repudiation Techniques To Deter Plagiarism, James Frost, Gamewell Gantt

Mountain Plains Journal of Business and Technology

The issue of academic integrity is a priority in any business school. Student education is one of the principal methods to deter plagiarism. Also, the instructor can direct students in paper preparation by requiring preliminary and final proposals, insisting on retention of source material and guiding the student to appropriate resources. Further, it is equally important for the instructor to use strong techniques to detect and confirm student plagiarism plus an active review of all submissions, not just selected “suspicious” student work. Finally, it is important to use computer forensic techniques to authenticate and avoid non-repudiation of student actions.

Using Wind To Power A Groundwater Circulation Well—Preliminary Results, Andrew Curtis Elmore, Ron Gallagher, K. David Drake

United States Environmental Protection Agency: Publications

In areas of the country where the U.S. Department of Energy has classified the available wind resources as Class 3 or greater, the use of wind turbines to provide power to relatively small remediation systems such as groundwater circulation wells may be technically and economically feasible. Groundwater circulation wells are a good candidate technology to couple with renewable energy, because the remediation system removes contamination from the subject aquifer with no net loss of the groundwater resource, while the wind turbine does not create potentially harmful air emissions. Wind data collected in the vicinity of the former Nebraska Ordnance Plant …

Bridges And Barriers To Housing For Chronically Homeless Street Dwellers: The Effects Of Medical And Substance Abuse Services On Housing Attainment, Tatjana Meschede

Center for Social Policy Publications

In the winter of 1998/99, after the deaths of 16 homeless people in the streets of Boston attracted wide attention by the media, the Commissioner of the Massachusetts Department of Public Health (MDPH), Dr. Howard Koh, convened a group of I stakeholders serving the homeless street population. The goal of this MDPH Homeless Taskforce was to reduce the number of homeless people dying on the streets as well as to improve service delivery to those homeless individuals most at risk of dying. A wide range of individuals serving or encountering the homeless street population, including homeless outreach teams, law enforcement …

Structuring Home Video By Snippet Detection And Pattern Parsing, Zailiang Pan, Chong-Wah Ngo

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

Hand-held camcorders have been popularly used in capturing and documenting daily lives. Nonetheless, searching for personal memories in home videos is still a laborious task. This paper describes novel approaches in detecting snippets and patterns in home videos for content indexing. To deal with the fact that most shots are long and with handshake artifacts, a motion analysis algorithm based on Kalman filter and finite state machine is proposed to decompose videos into tables of snippets. Each snippet is represented by a set of moving and static patterns. The moving patterns are automatically detected and tracked, while the static patterns …

Informal Animation Sketching: Requirements And Design, Richard C. Davis, James A. Landay

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

We present an interface design for creating informal animations from sketches. Current tools for creating animation are extremely complex. This makes it difficult for designers to prototype animations and nearly impossible for novices to create them at all. Simple animation systems exist but severely restrict the types of motion that can be represented. To guide our design of an animation sketching interface, we conducted field studies into the needs of professional and novice animators. These studies show the wide variety of motions that users desire in informal animations and indicate how to prioritize these types of otion. The interface described …

An additional aim of this paper is to show the relevance and signijkance of these attempts and to examine the extent to which early Ford research can inform our applied research today. In particular, this study examines the early data collection efforts by investigators of the Ford Motor Company Sociological Department. These took place in the …

The Origins Of Cctld Policymaking, Peter K. Yu

Faculty Scholarship

Extract:

A long time ago in a galaxy not so far away, there was a decentralized global network of computers. These computers shared information with each other regardless of how far apart they were and whether there was any direct line of communication between them. In the very beginning, this network was used exclusively by government and military agencies, educational and research institutions, government contractors, scientists, and technology specialists. Instead of the domain names we use today, such as “www. amazon.com,” users typed in numeric addresses, such as “123.45.67.89,” and, later, host names to send information to other computers.
