A unified information criterion for evaluating probe and test selection
In this paper, we formalize this intuition and propose an information criterion for evaluating and comparing measurement/action choices based on their information contribution.

Standardizing research methods for prognostics
In this paper, we provide a critical review of current research methods in PHM and contrast these methods with standard research approaches in a more established discipline (medicine).

Scalable multicast routing in MANETs using sender-initiated multicast meshes
We present Hydra, the rst multicast routing protocol for MANETs that establishes a multicast routing structure approximating the set of source-rooted shortest-path trees from multicast sources to receivers, without requiring the dissemination of control packets from each source of a multicast group.

Optimal scaling of multicommodity flows in wireless ad hoc networks: beyond the Gupta-Kumar barrier
We establish a tight max-ow min-cut theorem for multi-commodity routing in random geometric graphs.

A Pilot Evaluation of a Nasal Expiratory Resistance Device for the Treatment of Obstructive Sleep Apnea
The present pilot study tests the hypothesis that the application of expiratory resistance via a nasal valve device would improve breathing during sleep in subjects with OSA and in primary snorers.

Self-Organized Silver Nanoparticles for Three-Dimensional Plasmonic Crystals
We demonstrate here the spontaneous self-assembly of shaped silver nanoparticles into three-dimensional plasmonic crystals that display a frequency-selective response in the visible wavelengths.

Comparison of Water Vapor Measurements By Airborne Sun Photometer and Diode Laser Hygrometeron the NASA DC-8
The AATS measured column water vapor on the aircraft-to-sun path, while the DLH measured local water vapor in the free stream between the aircraft fuselage and an outboard engine cowling.

Ir and Raman Characterization of the Zincocenes (eta(5)-C5Me5)2Zn2 and (eta(5)-C5Me5)(eta(1)-C5Me5)Zn
The measured Raman and IR spectra of solid, polycrystalline bis(pentamethylcyclopentadienyl)dizinc, (eta(5)-C5Me5)2Zn2, 1, and bis(pentamethylcyclopentadienyl)monozinc, (eta(5)-C5Me5)(eta(1)-C5Me5)Zn, 8, are reported in some detail.

Trust and Automation in Verification Tools
We argue that trust need not be achieved at the expense of automation, and outline a lightweight approach where the results of untrusted verifiers are checked by a trusted offline checker.

Variants in Nicotinic Receptors and Risk for Nicotine Dependence
The purpose of this study was to replicate these findings in an independent data set and more thoroughly investigate the role of genetic variation in the cluster of physically linked nicotinic receptors, CHRNA5-CHRNA3-CHRNB4 , and the risk of smoking.

FrameSLAM: from Bundle Adjustment to Real-Time Visual Mapping
In this paper, we propose a framework for applying the same techniques to visual imagery. We match visual frames with large numbers of point features.
