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 ...
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 ...
Compounding the Results: The Integration of Virtual Worlds With the Semantic Web
(2010)
Over the past 20 years, governmental use of Web-base information and
technologies has continually expanded taking advantage of the Web's vast, ever-
expanding volumes of browser-accessible ...
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 ...
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 ...
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 ...
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 ...
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 ...
Blending on-campus and online experiences through the use of virtually immersive technologies
(2011)
Recently, there has been a great deal of attention put toward efforts to integrate teaching methodologies and strategies between face to face and online classrooms looking to maximize learning by combining delivery modalities. ...
CHARACTERIZATION OF SOLID MODELS PRODUCED BY RAPID PROTOTYPING MACHINES
(2014)
Parts produced by 3-D printers were tested to determine the mechanical properties and failure modes. Since 3-D printed parts are built up layer-by-layer, they do not have the same properties in all directions. In order ...
