Application-driven overlay network as a service for data-intensive science
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2014)[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT AUTHOR'S REQUEST.] Campuses are increasingly adopting hybrid cloud architectures for supporting data-intensive science applications that require "on-demand" resources, ... -
Azelnidipine attenuates inflammatory responses, siperoxide and relevant signaling pathways induced by amyloid-beta in mouse cerebral endothelial cells
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2014)Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a debilitating neurodegenerative disease with no known cure. The cause and progression of AD is still unclear. Over the years, studies have shown that one of the earliest cytotoxic effects is ... -
Characterization of a lithium niobate piezoelectric transformer
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2014) -
Counteracting traffic congestion using intelligent driver feedback
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2014)Traffic congestion is a daily occurrence in urban highway networks worldwide. It is not possible, however, for society to build its way out of congestion; rather, smarter roads and vehicles are needed. While the development ... -
Damage inspection of isotropic/multi-layer plates by time-frequency analysis of Lamb waves
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2014) -
Deletion of IP₃ receptor2 in astrocytes enhances the hippocampal neurogenesis in adult mice
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2014)[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT AUTHOR'S REQUEST.] Neurogenesis (birth of neurons) is a process by which neurons are generated from neural progenitor cells. It mainly occurs in two regions of brain, one ... -
Depth sensor based object detection using surface curvature
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2014)An object detection system finds objects from an image or video sequence of the real world. The good performance of object detection has been largely driven by the development of well-established robust feature sets. By ... -
Design and analysis of reconfigurable phased array antenna for wireless local area network applications
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2014)[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT AUTHOR'S REQUEST.] -
The design of ultrafast routes to synthesis carbon nanotubes by microwave
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2014)[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT AUTHOR'S REQUEST.] Carbon nanotubes are seamless cylinders of carbon skeletons with hexagonal honey comb structures. It also could be seen as the rolling of one or more ... -
A detection based sport player tracker
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2014)[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT AUTHOR'S REQUEST.] Currently, the sliding windows framework dominates the object detection task for its good performance. But the computational cost of this approach is ... -
Determining a heuristic for pick location design in an end user warehouse
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2014)Picking is the number one cost center for most warehouses, representing up to 65% of their total expenditures. Travel time is the largest component of the picking cost which makes travel distance an extremely important ... -
Development of tools for SoyKB: SNPViz, differential expression and protein bioviewer
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2014)Soybean Knowledge Base (SoyKB) is a comprehensive website, which contains lots of web sources for soybean. By integrating multi omics data and solving data storage problem, SoyKB is able to build connection between multiple ... -
A distributed CPU-GPU framework for large-scale pairwise alignment
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2014)[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT AUTHOR'S REQUEST.] Several problems in computational biology require the all-against-all pairwise comparisons of tens of thousands of individual biological sequences. ... -
Economic justification of coordinated care program for the University of Missouri health care system
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2014)Due to financial and political pressure, the atmosphere of healthcare is radically changing. In order to adapt to these changes, many healthcare systems are seeking to employ coordinated care programs to increase the ... -
An educational tool for the material point method
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2014)The Material Point Method (MPM), a particle method designed for simulating large deformations and the interactions between different material phases, has demonstrated its potential in modern engineering applications. To ... -
