X Y Z CHAMBER MUSIC COMPOSITION FOR VIOLIN, VIOLONCELLO, DOUBLE BASS, MARIMBA, AND PERCUSSION
(2007-06-13)This work features multiple meters sounding simultaneously and a harmonic scheme limited to four four-part interval collections. Each of the four interval collections sounds alone for severaL phrases before moving to another ... -
X-inactivation informs variance-based testing for X-linked association of a quantitative trait
(Springer Nature, 2015)The X chromosome plays an important role in human diseases and traits. However, few X-linked associations have been reported in genome-wide association studies, partly due to analytical complications and low statistical ... -
X-Ray Astrophysics: Constraining Thermal Conductivity in Intracluster Gas in Clusters of Galaxies and Placing Limits on Progenitor Systems of Type Ia Supernovae
(2014)X-ray astrophysics provides a great many opportunities to study astronomical structures with large energies or high temperatures. This dissertation will describe two such applications: the use of Swift X-ray Telescope (XRT) ... -
X-ray Image Segmentation and An Internet-based Tool for Medical Validation
(2006-12-04)Segmentation of vertebrae in X-ray images is a difficult task that requires an effective segmentation procedure. Noise, poor image contrast, occlusions and shape variability are some of the challenges in many of the spine ... -
X-RAY TIME AND SPECTRAL VARIABILITY AS PROBES OF ULTRALUMINOUS X-RAY SOURCES
(2014)A long-standing debate in the field of ultraluminous X-ray sources (ULXs: luminosities > 3×10<super>39</super> ergs s<super>-1</super>) is whether these objects are powered by stellar-mass black holes (mass range of ... -
X-Ray Vision: Creating an Inspiring Workplace for Library Staff with Hidden Disabilities
(2008-10-03)According to the U.S. Bureau of Census for 2000; from 1991 to 2000, there were a growing number of workers who self-identified as having one or more disabilities. Since 2000, demographic changes tell us this trend is ... -
XBUILD: Pre-processor for Finite Element Analysis of Steel Bridge Structures
(1992)Historically, the lack of interactive pre-processors to describe tedious finite element models has hindered the use of the finite element method for bridge analysis. The work performed in the present study mitigates this ... -
XJoin: Getting Fast Answers From Slow and Bursty Networks
(1999-02-26)The combination of increasingly ubiquitous Internet connectivity and advances in heterogeneous and semi-structured databases has the potential to enable database-style querying over data from sources distributed around ... -
An XML Application-Based Interface to Developing Modular System Simulations
(2008-01-25)We introduce a framework for the development of modular lumped and distributed parameter system models, the latter described by boundary value problems. The simulation of such systems requires careful analysis and a rigorous ... -
An XML Application-Based Interface to Developing Modular System Simulations
(2008-01)We introduce a framework for the development of modular lumped and distributed parameter system models, the latter described by boundary value problems. The simulation of such systems requires careful analysis and a rigorous ... -
An XML-Based Approach to Integrating Semiconductor Process Information
(2002)This paper discusses the development of a Java and XML-based semiconductor process information system for experimental data archiving, processing, analysis, presentation and simulation. <p>The three-tier system architecture ... -
XMT-M: A Scalable Decentralized Processor
(1999-10-09)A defining challenge for research in computer science and engineering has been the ongoing quest for reducing the completion time of a single computation task. Even outside the parallel processing communities, there is ... -
XMTSim: A Simulator of the XMT Many-core Architecture
(2011)This paper documents the features and the design of XMTSim, the cycle-accurate simulator of the Explicit Multi-Threading (XMT) computer architecture. The Explicit Multi-Threading (XMT) is a general-purpose many-core ... -
XSQ: A Streaming XPath Engine
(2003-08-01)We have implemented and released the XSQ system for evaluating XPath queries on streaming XML data. XSQ supports XPath features such as multiple predicates, closures, and aggregation, which pose interesting ... -
XSQ: Streaming XPath Queries
(2002-09-18)We describe the design and implementation of XSQ, a system for evaluating XPath 1.0 queries on streaming XML data. Each XML element in the input data is presented to the system only once in a serial order determined ... -
XTOLS: Cross-tier Oracle Label Security
(2009-04-08)SELinks allows cross-tier security enforcement between the application tier and the database tier by compiling policy functions and database queries into user-defined functions (UDFs) and SQL queries. Unfortunately, this ... -
Yanagi: Fast and interpretable segment-based alternative splicing and gene expression analysis
(Springer Nature, 2019-08-13)Ultra-fast pseudo-alignment approaches are the tool of choice in transcript-level RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) analyses. Unfortunately, these methods couple the tasks of pseudo-alignment and transcript quantification. This ... -

(University of Maryland Extension, 2011)This publication is a map, schedule, and seasonal lists of planting tips for a 3x24-foot garden plot. -
YEAR-ROUND DETERMINATION OF METHANE (CH4) SOURCES AND SINKS IN ARCTIC LAKES USING CONTINUOUS AND AUTONOMOUS SAMPLING
(2020)Methane (CH4) is a potent greenhouse gas and its concentration has been increasing in the atmosphere. While natural emissions from inland water bodies are known to be important, there is large uncertainty in the amount of ... -
Yeast Pseudo-Haploinsufficiency as a Model System for Human Ribosomopathies
(2015)Ribosomopathies belong to a class of human diseases caused by mutations in genes that encode ribosomal proteins, ribosomal biogenesis factors, ribosomal RNA (rRNA) or rRNA post-transcriptional modifying factors. Ribosomal ...
