The objective of the investigator in carrying out this
study is: to evaluate the reliability and validity of the
ENGLISH SKILLS TEST-REVISED (EST-R); to construct local
norms based on a small sample of subjects from Oregon State

and methods used in educational...
A compartmental model of the immune system is simulated.
Chapter I discusses the importance of such a
model, reviews past immune system models, and summaries
the immunological theory the model is based upon. In
Chapter II, the compartmental representation of the immune
system is developed from immunological and physiological
theory....
This paper compares three classes of algorithms for finding
Hamiltonian circuits in graphs. Two of the classes are exhaustive
search procedures and this study finds them to have an exponential
dependence on the size of the graph. The third class of algorithms,
based on Warnsdorff's rule, is found to be...
