GRIFFIN is a joint research project of the VU University Amsterdam and the University of Groningen. The GRIFFIN project develops notations, tools and associated methods to extract, represent and use architectural knowledge that currently is not documented or represented in the system. The research is carried out in a consortium with various industries, both large and small, that provide case st...

Primitives for application-level user interface construction facilities currently under development at M.I.T. Project Athena are described. The design philosophy of the X Toolkit and associated widgets and some of the practical implications are discussed.

This study demonstrates the versatility of a two-point, multilayer wall function in computing modeland full-scale ship flows with wall roughness and pressure gradient effects. The wall-function model is validated for smooth flat-plate flows at Reynolds numbers up to 10, and it is applied to the Athena R/V for resistance, propulsion, and seakeeping calculations and to fully appended DTMB 5415 fo...

This study examines how the first users of the X-Window system, the administrative staff at MIT's Project Athena, coped with this complex new technology. By examining their use of customization files over a period of six months, we were able to track how they responded to both organizational and technological changes. We found clear evidence of co-adaptation: individuals both adapted to the new...

These difficult questions, now much diseussed, are in fact very old, indeed as old as the beginnings of Western medieine. According to an ancient Greek myth, the goddess Athena procured two powerful drugs in the form of blood taken from the Gorgon Medusa, the blood drawn from her left side providing protection against death, that from her right side a deadly poison. According to one version of ...

Numerical relativity is central to the investigation of astrophysical sources in dynamical and strong-field gravity regime, such as binary black hole neutron star coalescences. Current challenges set by gravitational-wave multi-messenger astronomy call for highly performant scalable codes on modern massively-parallel architectures. We present GR-Athena++, a general-relativistic, high-order, ver...

This paper will examine the development of emotion in Greek sculpture; beginning with its overall absence in the Late Archaic period and continuing through its inception in the Early Classical period and its zenith during the Hellenistic Age. My chapters will each focus on a different style of sculpture and how emotion developed in each of them. I begin with architectural sculpture, tracing how...

BACKGROUND Flow-based, multiplex bead arrays (MBA) have been developed for a variety of applications including the detection of antibodies to extractable nuclear antigens (ENA). It offers a rapid and sensitive method to assess multiple analyses in a single tube/well. PURPOSE To evaluate the Athena Multi-Lyte ANA Test System utilizes Luminex Corporation's MBA technology for the detection of an...
