Embracing interference in ad hoc networks using joint routing and scheduling with multiple packet reception
We present an approach that takes advantage of multi-packet reception (MPR) to reduce the negative effects of multiple access interference and therefore increase the capacity of an ad hoc network.

Powers of 10: modeling complex information-seeking systems at multiple scales
New models of information-seeking support systems offer two advantages: they move us from prescientific conceptual frameworks about information seeking to more rigorous scientific theories and predictive models while, at the…

Learning by Reading: Normalizing complex linguistic structures onto a knowledge representation
This brief position paper illustrates the power of this approach in PARCs Bridge system through examples of textual inference.

Predicate privacy in encryption systems
In this paper, we consider a new notion called predicate privacy, that is, the property that a token should not reveal information about the query predicate encoded in it.

Thyrotropin-Releasing Hormone Increases Behavioral Arousal Through Modulation of Hypocretin/Orexin Neurons
In vitro electrophysiological studies showed that bath application of TRH caused concentration-dependent membrane depolarization, decreased input resistance, and increased firing rate of identified Hcrt neurons.

Case Studies of Aerosol Remote Sensing in the Vicinity of Clouds
In this paper, we describe aerosol observations collected near cloud edges by an airborne Sun photometer over dark ocean waters.

Observations of Polar Mesospheric Summer Echoes Using Pfisr During the Summer of 2007
The Poker Flat Incoherent Scatter Radar (PFISR) has been running nearly continuously throughout the summer of 2007, which permits an unprecedented, long-term study of polar mesospheric summer echoes (PMSE) at UHF.

Pathway Analysis By Adaptive Combination of P-Values
Building upon existing P-value combining methods, we propose a class of highly flexible pathway analysis approaches based on an adaptive rank truncated product statistic that can effectively combine evidence of associations…

What Works, What We Think Works, and How It Can Work for You
This session will first provide an overview of our understanding of the What Works Clearinghouse (WWC) standards of evidence for determining the rigor and quality of research studies, and we…

Femtosecond Laser Photoionization Time-Of-Flight Mass Spectrometry of Nitro-Aromatic Explosives and Explosives Related Compounds
The ultrafast laser-induced photoionization and photodissociation processes of the nitroaromatic containing explosive and explosive related compounds have been investigated at three laser wavelengths and power densities using a time-of-flight mass…

Selective Loss of Gabab Receptors in Orexin-Producing Neurons Results in Disrupted Sleep/Wakefulness Architecture
Here we analyze the in vivo and in vitro phenotype of mice lacking the GABAB1 gene specifically in orexin neurons (oxGKO mice) and demonstrate that GABAB receptors on orexin neurons are essential in stabilizing and consolidating sleep/wake…
