The purpose of this study was to identify significant differences
in body composition, body cathexis, and attitudes toward obesity
of women in various age groups involved in different levels of physical
exercise.
A total of 216 women, ranging in age from 17 to 64, took part in
this study. They...
FISHNET (Facilities Integrated in a Shared Habitat) is a communication subnet architecture utilizing a hybrid application of point-topoint and broadcast communications to achieve a high degree of network performance. This objective is achieved through utilizing a dual bus structure: a data bus and a control bus. The data bus consists...
GEMS (Graphical Ethernet Monitoring System) is an
enhancement to the SU-PC/IP NETWATCH program, for the
graphical display and recording of computer network packets.
SU-PC/IP (Stanford University Personal Computer/Internet
Protocol) NETWATCH displays one line of information per
packet, including the packet type, IP addresses, packet
size, and protocol type, etc. This...
COLAN (Control Oriented Local Area Network ) is a
redesign of the Task-Master, a daisy-chain structure
distributed control system. COLAN is a simple bus structure
communication subnetwork intended for distributed control
applications. Low cost and simplicity are two main design
criteria. Point-to-point and broadcast communications are
possible. A packet switching...
New grading standards for hay have been proposed by the American
Forage and Grassland Council and the Federal Grain Inspection Service.
This publication traces the development of these standards, describes new
terminology, and reports on research conducted at Oregon State University
to evaluate these new standards.
Alfalfa hay samples obtained...
Most general purpose protocols are found to suffer from
inefficiency in an Ethernet LAN environment when used for large
volume data transfer. This is especially true with the TCP/IP family
which was designed for a wide area network. This research work
presents a proof of this inefficiency and proposes a...
The very stable boundary layer is a region of the atmosphere typified by large
vertical gradients of temperature and momentum. Analysis of very stable atmospheric
flows is complicated by the presence of nonlinear interactions among gravity waves, shear-driven
overturning circulations, two-dimensional vortical modes and intermittent turbulence
in various stages of...
Thermodynamical and dynamical aspects of tropical cloud
clusters are studied using data from the GARP Atlantic Tropical
Experiment (GATE). The data set used in this study is a
three-dimensional gridded set of upper-air analyses constructed by
Ooyama and Chu (Hurricane Research Division, AOML/NOAA and
SSEC-University of Wisconsin) for wind data...
