Data in Depth: Web 3-D Technologies Provide New Approaches to the Presentation of Course Content
(2010)For nearly two decades, the Web has provided the classroom with vast, ever-expanding volumes of browseraccessible information. As the web has evolved so too has our desire to become more involved with the process ... -
Design Considerations for Virtual Classroom and Laboratory Environments
(2009-06)With the ever-increasing demand for distance education one of the key challenges facing faculty is not only delivering effective instruction through both lecture-style and laboratory means, but also giving students an ... -
Knowledge-Based Competencies Necessary for the Frontline Construction Supervisor : Improving Safety through Knowledge
(East Carolina University, 2012)Evaluating supervisor competency levels has been a management challenge since the beginning of supervisory roles in the construction process. Supervisors perform a critical role in the workplace with respect to workplace ... -
Migrating Legacy Software Applications to Cloud Computing Environments : A Software Architect's Approach
(East Carolina University, 2011)Cloud computing has garnered a great deal of interest in the past few years. The availability of on-demand computational power is presumed to provide substantial IT infrastructure cost-savings, partially through the ... -
miRCancer : a microRNA-Cancer Association Database and Toolkit Based on Text Mining
(East Carolina University, 2010)MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a class of single-stranded small non-coding RNAs. Study of miRNAs has been a fast growing field since the first miRNA was discovered in 1993. Many findings indicate that miRNA plays an important role ... -
Modeling and Testing of Aspect-Oriented Systems
(East Carolina University, 2011)Aspect-Oriented programming modularizes crosscutting concerns into Aspects, which are automatically weaved to the specified points of a program. Although Aspect-Oriented programming improves program maintainability and the ... -
MODELLING [sic] AND SIMULATION OF JAMMING ATTACKS IN WLAN
(East Carolina University, 2012)Wireless local area networks (WLAN) are one of the most widely used technologies in our daily lives. Instead of being limited to the range of wired equipment, users can communicate freely. However, since wireless networks ... -
A Protocol and Tool for Developing a Descriptive Behavioral Model
(East Carolina University, 2012)Fuzzy rules have been used to model complex human behavior in order to develop sophisticated industrial control systems. The use of fuzzy rules to create a behavioral model provides a quantitative basis for discussing the ... -
Recurrence and Plasticity in Evolved Neural Controllers
(East Carolina University, 2009)Among the more important applications of evolutionary neurocontrollers is the development of systems that are able to dynamically adapt to a changing environment. While traditional approaches to control system design demand ... -
Self-Checked Metamorphic Testing of Monte Carlo Simulation
(East Carolina University, 2011)Photon propagation in biological tissues can be modeled with Monte Carlo simulations numerically. However, testing a such program is difficult due to the unknown character of the test oracles. Although approaches based on ...
