Museum Studies In Collection Management, Hugh H. Genoways Dec 1989

Museum Studies In Collection Management, Hugh H. Genoways

University of Nebraska State Museum: Programs Information

First paragraph:

At the workshop on "Collection Resources for the 1990's" held in Washington, D.C., October 1988, one of the identified needs for institutions was for additional trained collection management staff (Hoagland and Mabee, ASC Newsletter 16(6): 9, 1988). There are few academic programs that provide training in the management of biological, geological, and anthropological collections. Because this is an identified need for the 1990's, the question arises: "Are we able to meet this need?" and, if we are not currently in a position to do so, "What must be done in the future to meet this need?"

Conclusions

Currently, …

Beauty In Mathematics: Some Theological Implications, David L. Neuhouser Jun 1989

Beauty In Mathematics: Some Theological Implications, David L. Neuhouser

ACMS Conference Proceedings 1989

It may come as a surprise to some that science or mathematics could be considered beautiful, but many prominent sciences and mathematicians from around the world have made such claims. Furthermore, the beauty of mathematics and order of the universe inspired some of the greatest developments in science and mathematics. This paper examines the beauty of mathematics and what scientists and other individuals have said about the subject.


A Course On Mathematics And The Christian Faith, W. David Laverell, Carl J. Sinke Jun 1989

A Course On Mathematics And The Christian Faith, W. David Laverell, Carl J. Sinke

ACMS Conference Proceedings 1989

The January interim term at Calvin College provides an opportunity for developing and teaching courses outside a normal major program. As a result faculty members are frequently given the interim off to provide time for research and development of new courses. In 1987 we were given such a leave in order to pursue the questions of the relationship between mathematics and the Christian Faith. One result was our presentation at the 1987 Association of Christians in the Mathematical Sciences conference. Immediately thereafter we began to develop a specific interim course based on our studies. We offered the course during the …

The Bisexual Galton-Watson Branching Process, David M. Hull Jun 1989

The Bisexual Galton-Watson Branching Process, David M. Hull

ACMS Conference Proceedings 1989

I would like to present the bisexual Galton-Watson branching process. The word "bisexual" indicates that we will be considering a population of two sexes--which will be designated as the usual male and female. Here is a brief overview of what I would like to cover.

  1. The bisexual process motivated: why is it needed?
  2. The standard Galton-Watson branching process.
  3. The state of affairs regarding two-sex models.
  4. The nuts and bolts of the bisexual Galton-Watson branching process (parameters defined and how it works).
  5. A review of published bisexual results to date.
  6. What is to come?

Simulated Annealing On Np-Complete Problems, Russell W. Howell Jun 1989

Simulated Annealing On Np-Complete Problems, Russell W. Howell

ACMS Conference Proceedings 1989

The Random House Dictionary defines anneal as " ... to free (glass, metals, etc.) from internal stress by heating and gradually cooling." In the physical world, impurities are annealed out of a substance by heating it to a high temperature. As it is cooled, its molecular structure gradually settles into a stable "low-energy" configuration. It is important to cool the substance slowly, especially at lower temperatures, so that impurities do not get "frozen" into place. With careful cooling, a low-energy state can eventually be reached. This state may not be the one with the lowest potential energy, where the spins …
