Parallel Processing of Top-K Trajectory Similarity Queries on Big Data Using GPUs
(2017-05-12)
Through the use of location-sensing devices, it has been possible to collect very large datasets of trajectories. These datasets make it possible to issue spatio-temporal queries with which users can gather information ...
EXPERIMENTAL INVESTIGATION OF THE EFFECTS OF ROTATIONAL SPEED AND WEIGHT ON BIT ON DRILLSTRING VIBRATIONS, TORQUE AND RATE OF PENETRATION
(2017-05-12)
Experimental investigation was carried out on an automated drilling rig fabricated for the Drillbotics competition. The effects of rotational speed and weight on bit were observed on drillstring vibrations, torque and rate ...
Unilateral fatiguing exercise and its effect on ipsilateral and contralateral resting mechanomyographic mean frequency between aerobic populations
(2017-02-27)
The purpose of this investigation was to establish a better understanding of contralateral training and its effects between homologous muscles following unilateral fatiguing aerobic exercise during variable resting postural ...
Dynamic Uplift Modeling
(2017-12)
In this thesis, a new approach to Uplift modeling which considers time dependent behavior of the customers is analyzed. Uplift modeling attempts to measure the impact of a treatment on an entity in a controlled experiment. ...
War or Peace? How the Subjective Perception of Great Power Interdependence Shapes Preemptive Defensive Aggression
(2017-06-02)
Why do great powers with benign intentions end up fighting each other in wars they do not seek? We utilize an incentivized, two-person “Preemptive Strike Game” (PSG) to explore how the subjective perception of great power ...

The Effects of Computer-Supported Collaborative Learning on Writing Performance, Metacognition, and Experience of Students with Writing Difficulties
(2017-12-16)
Students with writing difficulties often demonstrate a deficit in both cognitive and metacognitive skills when writing. They often struggle with task-related components of writing such as mechanics, taking notes when ...
Using Cognitive Task Analysis to Describe Spatial Reasoning Processes
(2017-12-15)
This study is rooted in the idea that the ability to navigate a three-dimensional environment, both in reality and virtually, the ability to imagine and manipulate three-dimensional objects, and the ability to visualize ...
Investigation of Low-Power Antenna Reconfiguration Through Biasing of Magnetic Loads
(2017-05-12)
In modern RF systems, tunable devices are increasingly necessary to provide agility in crowded spectral environments. The antenna, as an integral part of any wireless system, must be capable of operating well at multiple ...
