The 1998 Boyer Commission Report advocated improvement of undergraduate education at large research universities through large-scale participation of undergraduates in the universities' research mission. At a recent conference sponsored by the Reinvention Center, which is dedicated to furthering the goals of the Boyer Commission, participants discussed progress toward these goals and recommenda...

The concept of digital scholarship is much discussed. Most writing on scholarship takes its cue from the work of Boyer (1990). Boyer was a senior figure in higher education, at one point Chancellor of the State University of New York who developed an account of what it means to be a scholar. He developed a view on teaching and research activities in the modern university and came up with a conc...

Since the Boyer-Moore algorithm was described in 1977, it has been the standard benchmark for the practical string search literature. Yet this yardstick compares badly with current practice. We describe two algorithms that perform 47% fewer comparisons and are about 4.5 times faster across a wide range of architectures and compilers. These new variants are members of a family of algorithms base...

Acknowledgements An early version of part of this system was written by J Moore, who I also thank for suggesting this project. Also, Bob Boyer and J Moore have been very helpful in answering questions about their theorem prover. I also thank David Goldschlag, Carl Pixley, Matt Wilding, and Bill Young for their helpful feedback in the development of this system. Finally, I truly appreciate the c...

Photopolymerisation Zhiheng Zhang, Nathaniel Corrigan und Cyrille Boyer berichten in ihrer Zuschrift (e202114111) über eine photoinduzierte Methode für den 3D-Druck basierend auf zwei Wellenlängen sowie die Selbstheilung von duroplastischen Materialien.

We study the size of Boyer-Moore automata introduced in Knuth, Morris & Pratt's famous paper on pattern matching. We experimentally exhibit a nite class of binary patterns, which produce large Boyer-Moore automata. The best approximation curve for their sizes is a polynomial O(m 7), or even an exponential O(2 0:4m), in the length m of the patterns. All the previously known maximal sizes were at...

James L. Boyer, MD president of the American Association for the Study of Liver Diseases, as well as the International Association for the Study of the Liver, and a senior investigator who runs a vigorous and impactful research program funded by a grant currently in its 40th year. We asked Dr Boyer to discuss his decision to maintain a research program (as opposed to switching his focus to teac...

This paper explores two techniques for on-line exact pattern matching in files that have been compressed using the Burrows-Wheeler transform. We investigate two approaches. The first is an application of the Boyer-Moore algorithm (Boyer & Moore 1977) to a transformed string. The second approach is based on the observation that the transform effectively contains a sorted list of all substrings o...
