Opposing views on orthogonal adaptation: a response to Clifford, Arnold, Smith, and Pianta (2003)

Clifford et al., 2003 point out that there is indeed a subtle difference between their experiment and ours (Westheimer & Gee, 2002). Because it is generally better to provide the observer with an explicit standard when measuring difference thresholds we had interposed a brief presentation of the comparison before showing the test pattern for which the orientation judgment had to be made. Cliffo...

Idaho, Earthquake from Body Wave Analysis by Diane I. Doser and Robert B. Smith

Modeling of long-period body waves of the Ms = 7.3 Borah Peak, Idaho, earthquake suggests that the earthquake was a simple rupture that nucleated at a depth of about 16 km and propagated unilaterally northwestward toward the surface. The seismic moment tensor obtained from the inversion of teleseismic body wave amplitude data agrees well with the fault plane solution obtained from short-period ...

Robert B . Hitchcock , Sr . Gordon L . Smith David D . Cheng Timing Analysis of Computer Hardware

Timing Analysis is a design automation program that assists computer design engineers in locating problem timing in a clocked, sequential machine. The program is effective for large machines because, in part, the running time is proportional to the number of circuits. This is in contrast to alternative techniques such as delay simulation, which requires large numbers of test patterns, and path ...
