CyberVisual : designing user environments for large scale networks and simulations
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2014)The growth of data collection within the technology sector has been increasing at an astounding rate over the last decade. This growth has given rise to techniques and statistical tools for computation that enable us to ... -
Cyborg botany : augmented plants as sensors, displays and actuators
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2017)Plants are photosynthetic eukaryotes with a billion years of evolutionary history. While primarily sessile, they have developed distinctive abilities to adapt to the environment. They are self-powered, self-fabricating, ... -
Cycle time & cost reduction in a low volume manufacturing environment
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1996) -
Cycle time reduction through improvements in inventory management
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1999) -
Cycle time reduction through wafer starts control
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2008)Intel's Fab 17, located in Hudson, Massachusetts, has experienced dramatic improvements in its cycle time performance in the last two years. These improvements have been attributed to lean implementation efforts, reduced ... -
Cycle to cycle feedback control of manufacturing processes
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2001) -
Cycle-averaged models of cardiovascular dynamics
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2002) -
Cycle-time analysis and improvement using lean methods within a retail distribution center
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2015)Fulfillment cycle-time, or the time it takes to pick an item from inventory, pack it into a box, and load it on a truck for shipment, is one of the main inputs in determining how quickly an online retailer can promise ... -
Cycle-to-cycle control of reconfigurable die sheet metal forming
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2004)This research addresses cycle to cycle control as applied to a sheet metal stretch forming process. More specifically, it attempts to validate the use of cycle to cycle (CtC) control for a multiple input-multiple output ... -
Cyclic deformation of FCC crystals
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1995) -
Cyclic exchange neighborhood search technique for the K-means clustering problem
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2004)Cyclic Exchange is an application of the cyclic transfers neighborhood search technique for the k-means clustering problem. Neighbors of a feasible solution are obtained by moving points between clusters in a cycle. This ... -
Cyclic load resistance of reinforced concrete beams retrofitted with composite laminates
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1998) -
Cyclic matter(s) in architecture
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2020)The matter comprising the human body is in a constant state of change, part of a cycle of death and new life, of destruction and reconstitution. From geophysics to cellular biology, processes across scales exhibit cyclic ... -

(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1985) -
Cyclical dynamics in idiosyncratic consumption risk
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2020)This paper examines cyclical dynamics of idiosyncratic consumption risk using consumption data from the Nielsen Consumer Panel and the Panel Study of Dynamic Income. With GMM estimates and supplemental graphical analysis, ... -
Cycling infrastructure as a first mile solution for mass transit access in Singapore : a study of MRT ridership in Singapore towns
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2012) -
A cycling network for the cities of Boston and Cambridge
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2009)In recent years, many cities have been looking for alternative urban transportation tools due to the high cost of energy and the global climate change. As one of the clean transportation types, cycling has become gradually ... -
