This paper reports on an empirical investigation of the relationship between print and hypertext reading skills. Subjects in the study were university students at a public Midwestern university. A repeated-measures, counter-balanced design was employed. Subjects were categorized as highand low-ability readers based on a standardized measure of reading achievement. Experimental tasks required su...

In recent years the use of small multi mission satellites (SMMS) in Low Earth Orbit (LEO) for making voice, data and E-mail communications has been grown extensively. Low production cost, Low cost of lunching and low transmission power due to it’s low orbit of these satellites are some reasons for their vast usage. How over because of their low orbit they need to turn several times around the e...

Content contribution from individuals is critical to the viability of online communities. In this study we identify the factors that are associated with the quantity and the quality of content sharing in a photo sharing community, where the act of content creation is decoupled from the act of content sharing. We draw on theories of intrinsic and extrinsic motivation, and find that the prospect ...

A systematic method of designing TSC checker for Q class (even code length) of Borden’s code [l] is proposed, where a modular approach is used. In a comparative study, it is found that the proposed method is much better than [2,3] and it has a larger capability than [4,5] in designing the checker. For instance, the 3/12 code in C(12,2) can be identified in one of four ways, corresponding to PT’...
