By studying the linker histone/DNA complex in vitro, our goal was to
gain further insight into the interaction of these histones in chromatin structure,
which, in turn, helps us in better understanding critical biological processes such
as replication, transcription, and recombination. In direct competition
experiments, we have confirmed previous results...
This project explores how science fiction can be used to examine social justice issues in our contemporary world. I will explore two case studies from the Star Wars: The Clone Wars television series through a framework of race, empire, and orientalism. Walidah Imarisha’s notion of “visionary fiction” is utilized as...
Wireless High Definition Video Transmission (WHDVT) over 802.11-based networks enjoys widespread deployment among today's multimedia solutions. Examples include Intel® Wireless Display and Apple Airplay®, to name a few. In these systems, peer-to-peer networks are established over which H.264-encoded video is transported wirelessly to be decoded and played back at the...
Networks of on-line modules for Digital Signal Processing (DSP) applications have been designed and analyzed in many papers. Various arguments have been made for on-line arithmetic over other bit-serial and parallel approaches. However, the majority, if not all of the on-line network implementations presented throughout the literature do not take...
This report is an exposition of an eleven week training
internship in the Port of Portland (POP). My interest in serving
an internship at POP came as a result of a field trip in the
spring of 1980 during which I was fascinated by the ports operations
and diversity. During...
Water shortage is one of the biggest problems facing
agricultural development in the United Arab Emirates, because of
the extremely arid climate and the large amount of irrigation
water that is used for crops. Prediction of crop water requirements is essential to solve water management problems in this
country.

Sandy soils are among the least productive soils because of their inability to
store adequate water for plant growth. Their high percolation rate not only allows
water to move quickly beyond the root zone, but also washes nutrients below the reach
of plant roots. High evaporation occurs from the soil...
Anthropogenic semivolatile organic compounds (SOCs) that persist in the environment, bioaccumulate, are toxic at
low concentrations, and undergo long-range atmospheric transport (LRT) were identified and quantified in the atmosphere
of a Saharan dust source region (Mali) and during Saharan dust incursions at downwind sites in the eastern
Caribbean (U.S. Virgin...
