Effect of osmolytes on regulating the activities of the SSK1 response regulator from Saccharomyces cerevisiae
(2009)
The multi-step His-Asp phosphorelay system in Saccharomyces cerevisiae allows cells to adapt to osmotic, oxidative and other environmental stresses. The pathway consists of a hybrid histidine kinase SLN1, a histidine-containing ...
Development and validation of metrics to evaluate robotics operator performance.
(2003)
This dissertation sought to develop and validate objective performance metrics for RMS operators to facilitate operator screening, provide training feedback, and examine performance changes over time. Preliminary investigation ...
KINETIC STUDIES ON THE ROLE OF HYDROGEN-BONDING INTERACTIONS IN THE TiO2 PHOTOOXIDATION OF SMALL POLAR ORGANIC COMPOUNDS IN AQUEOUS SOLUTION
(2009)
Drinking and hygiene water sustainability is a current concern due to the rapid pace of global urbanization and the vast coverage gap between urban and rural areas worldwide. Therefore, water recycling has become a necessity ...
The development of a Sunday School at a United Methodist church: A case study of one church's journey to begin a Sunday morning program for children.
(2004)
The findings highlighted that participants often (1) used personal knowledge and experience to make decisions (2) felt unsure about their ability to teach Christian tenets to children (3) knew little about educational ...
"In silence I struggle": Voices of South Vietnamese living in America.
(2004)
Almost thirty years after the fall of South Vietnam, Vietnamese exiles living in America continue to struggle with their past, especially former political prisoners of the reeducation camps and their families. This ...
Visualizing Chemical Concepts at the Particulate Level
(2009)
This study investigated the effectiveness of computer animations that simulate laboratory experiments at the microscopic level in general chemistry. The experimental group did simulation activities that focused on the ...
A history of the Chicago Symphony Chorus, 1957--2000.
(2001)
*The dissertation includes a CD that is compound (contains both a paper copy and a CD as part of the dissertation).
Testing and modeling of unsaturated interfaces.
(2005)
A conventional fully automated direct shear test device was modified to achieve the objectives of this study. The newly developed device, called the Unsaturated Interface Direct Shear Apparatus (UIDSA), was equipped for ...
External debt and growth of developing countries.
(2001)
This dissertation is an exploratory study of the effect of external debt on growth of (debtor) developing countries. The model developed for estimation is based on neoclassical growth theory. In particular, the Solow-Swan-Ramsey ...
Multiplierless CSD techniques for high performance FPGA implementation of digital filters.
(2007)
I leverage FastCSD to develop a new, high performance iterative multiplierless structure based on a novel real-time CSD recoding, so that more zero partial products are introduced. Up to 66.7% zero partial products occur ...
