An On-Line Acid-Base Titration Applet In The Generic Tutorial System For The Sciences Project, Thomas Lee Gummo Jan 2002

An On-Line Acid-Base Titration Applet In The Generic Tutorial System For The Sciences Project, Thomas Lee Gummo

Theses Digitization Project

The purpose of this Master's Project was to develop an Acid-Base Titration Simulator. It was also to be a part of the California State University - San Bernardino's GTSS, Generic Tutorial System for the Sciences, project. The main benefit is that students will be able to conduct titration experiments over the Internet without being in the laboratory and without costly equipment or dangerous chemicals. Instructors at the high school and college level can demonstrate the key principles of titration.

Egyptian Fractions, Jodi Ann Hanley Jan 2002

Egyptian Fractions, Jodi Ann Hanley

Theses Digitization Project

Egyptian fractions are what we know as unit fractions that are of the form 1/n - with the exception, by the Egyptians, of 2/3. Egyptian fractions have actually played an important part in mathematics history with its primary roots in number theory. This paper will trace the history of Egyptian fractions by starting at the time of the Egyptians, working our way to Fibonacci, a geologist named Farey, continued fractions, Diophantine equations, and unsolved problems in number theory.

Fundamental Theorem Of Algebra, Paul Shibalovich Jan 2002

Fundamental Theorem Of Algebra, Paul Shibalovich

Theses Digitization Project

The fundamental theorem of algebra (FTA) is an important theorem in algebra. This theorem asserts that the complex field is algebracially closed. This thesis will include historical research of proofs of the fundamental theorem of algebra and provide information about the first proof given by Gauss of the theorem and the time when it was proved.

Renewal Theory For Uniform Random Variables, Steven Robert Spencer Jan 2002

Renewal Theory For Uniform Random Variables, Steven Robert Spencer

Theses Digitization Project

This project will focus on finding formulas for E[N(t)] using one of the classical problems in the discipline first, and then extending the scope of the problem to include overall times greater than the time t in the original problem. The expected values in these cases will be found using the uniform and exponential distributions of random variables.

Multi-Database Support In The Recursive Multi-Threaded Software Process Management Tool, Yi-Chiun Kuo Jan 2002

Multi-Database Support In The Recursive Multi-Threaded Software Process Management Tool, Yi-Chiun Kuo

Theses Digitization Project

The Recursive Multi-Threaded (RMT) software process management tool gives software developers the following capabilities: break a large project into a sequence of prototypes (or threads) track these threads individually, and estimate the progress and completion date of the project from these individual threads. The goal of this project is to provide the RMT Tool with an ability to support multi-database for collaborative software development. As a demonstration, actual data is used from several previous algorithma projects.
