The Use of a Nasal Resistance Valve to Treat Sleep Disordered Breathing
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.

Toward Establishing Trust in Adaptive Agents
We present the results of a study among test users of CALO, one such complex adaptive agent system, to investigate themes surrounding trust and understandability. We identify and discuss eight major themes that significantly impact user trust in complex systems.

Frontal Callosal Integrity Predicts Cognitive Interference Compromise in Hiv-Infected Individuals Comorbid for Alcoholism
Diffusion tensor imaging was used to study the combined effects of HIV-infection and alcoholism (ALC) on corpus callosum (CC) integrity in relation to processes of attentional allocation and conflict resolution assessed by a novel Stroop Match-to-Sample task.

A Process Catalog for Workflow Generation
This paper describes PROCAT, an implemented ontology-based catalog for components, built on a layered representation that allows reasoning about processes at varying levels of abstraction, from qualitative constraints reflecting preconditions and effects, to quantitative predictions about output data and performance.

Thermal analysis of liquid phase epitaxy of ZnO and characteristics of some Li-doped Mg/sub 0.06/Zn/sub 0.94/O/ZnO heterostructure
Thermogravimetry and differential thermal analysis (TG/DTA) were used to examine a process capable of fabricating homoepitaxial, single-crystalline MexZn1xO (Me=Mg, Ga, etc.) films under thermodynamically stable conditions by liquid phase epitaxy.
