The model-reference, adaptive control concept is based on the
precept that desired control system performance is a known design
requirement and can be obtained from a representative model. Control
system parameters are adjusted by the adaptive controller through a
minimizing operation on a function of the error (i.e., performance
index)...
In recent years the conservation community has engaged in debate over value in nonhuman nature, especially as it relates to motivations for conservation. Many have expressed the assumption that more people are willing to support conservation when emphasis is placed on the human benefits of nonhuman nature, rather than the...
The set of codewords for a standard error-correcting code can be viewed
as subset of the vertices of a hypercube. Two vertices are adjacent in a hypercube exactly when their Hamming distance is 1. A code is a perfect-error-correcting code if no two codewords are adjacent and every non-codeword is...
In Oregon Milk Marketing Area One, milk producers receive a higher price for that portion of their milk sold within their quota allotments. Each year the Milk Stabilization Division of the Oregon Department of Agriculture determines the amount of quota allotted to each producer. Producers can acquire additional milk market...

Background:
Phylogeographic studies of aquatic insects provide valuable insights into mechanisms that shape the genetic structure of communities, yet studies that include broad geographic areas are uncommon for this group. We conducted a broad scale phylogeographic analysis of the least salmonfly Pteronarcella badia (Plecoptera) across western North America. We tested...
