Increasing awareness of the vulnerabilities of computer systems has led to the introduction of several programs in computer security. Many of these programs are meant to attract graduate students. Southern Oregon University has recently started a new undergraduate track in computer security and information assurance (CSIA). The curriculum is first of its kind in Oregon to be available at the un...

In this paper, a chaos search immune algorithm (CSIA) is proposed by integrating the chaos optimization algorithm and the clonal selection algorithm. First, optimization variables are expressed by chaotic variables through solution space transformation. Then, taking advantages of the ergodic and stochastic properties of chaotic variables, a chaos search is performed in the neighbourhoods of hig...

Indoor sources of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are ubiquitous, resulting in detectable concentrations in indoor air, often at concentrations above regulatory screening levels. Because of these indoor sources, the detection of a site-related VOC in a potentially affected building at a concentration above the regulatory screening level does not necessarily indicate a vapor intrusion impact. ...

Food web ecologists have long sought to characterize the trophic niches of animals using stable isotopic analysis. However, distilling trophic position from isotopic composition has been difficult, largely because of the variability associated with trophic discrimination factors (inter-trophic isotopic fractionation and routing). We circumvented much of this variability using compound-specific ...

This paper applies the nonlinear H∞ control theory to helicopter hovering manuver whose complete six degree-offreedom nonlinear equations of motion with coupled rotor and inflow dynamics are considered directly without linearization. Under this approach, the exact nonlinear equations governing both the longitudinal and lateral motions are considered. The control surface inverse algorithm (CSIA)...
