The RICH counter of the AMS experiment is described and its expected performances discussed. Prototype results are reported.

The officer of the deck (OOD) of a US Navy ship is in charge of the safe and proper operation of the ship, and accountable to the commanding officer for every event that occurs during his or her OOD watch. This paper discusses the development of a prototype behavioral marker system to evaluate, and provide feedback on, the nontechnical (cognitive, social, and personal resource) skills of OODs. ...

Network traffic is the key predicament and has gained much importance in the field of networking. This paper primarily discusses the two clustering methods used in the analysis of the network traffic. A comprehensive data processing is performed and application profiles are produced and consecutively clusters from the network traffic data, stating the similarities between different applications...

This research aims at discovering the traits and abilities which characterize ideal leaders in the minds of employees in an Iranian context. After employing the strategy of phenomenology to reach the components of ideal leadership, 15 tenured middle managers and employees possessing decent management knowledge in the context were interviewed and after theme analysis, global, basic, and organizi...

This paper presents the specification and verification in the Prototype Verification System (PVS) of a protocol intended to facilitate communication in an experimental remotely operated vehicle used by NASA researchers. The protocol is defined as a stack-layered composition of simpler protocols. It can be seen as the vertical composition of protocol layers, where each layer performs input and o...

In this article, we argue that, just as an edition of a book can be a means of reifying a theory about how books should be edited, so can the creation of an experimental digital prototype be understood as conveying an argument about designing interfaces. Building on this premise, we explore theoretical affinities shared by recent design and book history scholarship, and connect those theories t...
