This paper discusses a case study on defending design decisions with usability evidence.

This paper is about research on decision-making strategies in design meetings.

This paper discusses examining errors in technical communication.

This paper discusses an ad hoc query tool for relational databases. Most Web servers hosting biological data limit users to a defined set of search options and output formats that are short of the whole range of options available to users with direct database access. However, to make full use of the wealth of data in the database resource, it is desirable to have an intermediate solution that provides a broad range of flexible query and output options through a Web portal.

This paper discusses expressed sequence tag sequencing over grid and cloud computing clusters, specifically for biological applications. In this paper, the authors propose a Web service framework for high-level job scheduling that is developed for scientific applications.

Paper on mapping texts and combining text-mining and geo-visualization to unlock the research potential of historical newspapers.

Paper for the 2011 ACL Workshop on Language Technology for Cultural Heritage, Social Sciences, and Humanities. This paper discusses topic modeling on historical newspaper.

In this paper, the author discusses whether open access threatens peer review, as implied by the Association of American Publishers in their endorsement of the Research Works Act. The author suggests that we need to experiment with new models of peer evaluation.

This paper discusses the University of North Texas' (UNT) Center for the Study of Interdisciplinarity (CSID), where philosophers continue to examine the value of knowledge. The authors also discuss one example of CSID's work with the Comparative Assessment of Peer Review (CAPR) project. CAPR is a four-year project (2008-2012) studying the changing nature of peer review processes across six U.S. and foreign public science agencies. CAPR is funded by the U.S. National Science Foundation's (NSF) Science of Science and Innovation Policy (SciSIP) program.

This paper accompanies a poster presentation on the anti-diabetic and cholesterol-lowering effects of common and cassia cinnamon (Cinnamomum verum and C. aromaticum).

This paper accompanies an oral presentation on the identification of functional information subgraphs in cultured neural networks.

Paper discussing the complexity matching effect.

Paper on probability flux as a method for detecting scaling.

In this paper, the authors show using scanning tunneling microscopy, spectroscopy, and ab initio calculations that several intercalation structures exist for Na in epitaxial graphene on SiC(0001). Intercalation takes place at room temperature and Na electron-dopes the graphene. It intercalates in-between single-layer graphene and the carbon-rich interfacial layer. It also penetrates beneath the interfacial layer and decouples it to form a second graphene layer. This decoupling is accelerated by annealing and is verified by direct Na deposition onto the interface layer. The authors' observations show that intercalation in graphene is fundamentally different than in graphite and is a versatile means of electronic control.

In this paper, the authors adapt Axler and Ramey's method of constructing the harmonic part of a homogeneous polynomial to the Fischer decomposition associated to Dirac operators acting on polynomial spinors.

This paper was awarded a Nicholas and Anna Ricco Ethics Award for 2013. In this paper, the author discusses issues related to accountability versus autonomy and suggestions toward a more responsible practice of science.

Paper discussing non-extensive diffusion entropy analysis and non-stationarity in teen birth phenomena.

Paper discussing the statistical analysis of air and sea temperature anomalies.

Paper discussing short- and long-term statistical properties of heartbeat time-series in healthy and pathological subjects.

Paper discussing the treatment of congestive heart failure. Abstract: Using a method of entropic analysis of time series we establish the correlation between heartbeat long-range memory and mortality risk in patients with congestive heart failure.

Paper discussing the statistical source of disagreement between trajectories and density description.

Paper discussing scaling in non-stationary time series.

This paper is devoted to the problem of statistical mechanics raised by the analysis of an issue of sociological interest: the teen birth phenomenon.

This paper is a reply to the comment by Helmstetter and Sornette titled "Intercluster correlation in Seismicity" which addresses an important point in a paper written by the authors that needs to be clarified.
