Questions and Clarity: Insights from Applying Computational Methods to Paleoclimate Archives
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2022-05)It is a scientifically accepted fact that the Earth’s climate is presently undergoing significant changes with the potential for immense negative impacts on human society. As evidence of these impacts become clear and ... -
Queue arrival control with partial observations
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1987) -
Queue occupancy in single-server deterministic service time tree networks
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1999)Tree networks of single server, deterministic service time queues are often used as models for packet flow in systems with ATM traffic. In this thesis, we present methods of analyzing packet occupancy in these systems. We ... -

(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1993) -
Queueing control problems for production/inventory systems
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1992) -
Queueing implications of new security procedures in containerized shipping

Queueing System Analysis in Oil and Gas Abandonment Operations
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2023-09)Oil and Gas (O&G) well abandonments are crucial in ensuring environmental and regulatory compliance in the industry. This thesis characterizes an O&G well abandonment system and process using well-plugging regulations from ... -
A queueing theoretic analysis of contractors' sequential bidding problems.
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1970) -
Queuing dynamics and control of departure operations at Boston Logan Airport
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2001)The Departure Planner (DP) is a concept for a decision-aiding tool that is aimed at improving the performance of departure operations at major congested airports. In order to support the development of DP tools and other ... -
A queuing model of airport congestion and policy implications at JFK and EWR
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2012)Since the phasing-out of the High Density Rule, access to major commercial airports in the United States has been unconstrained or, in the case of the airports of New York, weakly constrained. This largely unregulated ... -
Quick response inventory replenishment for a photographic material supplier
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2001) -
Quickies : intelligent sticky notes
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2008)This thesis introduces 'Quickies', an attempt to bring one of the most useful inventions of the 20th century into the digital age: the ubiquitous sticky notes. Sticky notes help us manage our to-do lists, tag our objects ... -
QuickStep, a system for performance monitoring and debugging parallel applications on the Alewife multiprocessor
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1995) -
Quiet conflict : social movements, institutional change, and upgrading informal settlements in South Africa
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2013)The South African government's attempts to provide land and housing for the poor have been focused primarily on interventions at the policy level and within internal state bureaucracies. But experiences of social movements ... -
QUIKPAS : a microcomputer based passive solar analytical design tool
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1984)Social and economic pressures are causing architectural designers to resume their responsibility to consider the effects that design decisions will have on the thermal performance of buildings. Recent studies have shown ... -
Quillen cohomology of pi-algebras and application to their realization by Martin Frankland.
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2010)We use the obstruction theory of Blanc-Dwyer-Goerss to study the realization space of certain - algebras with 2 non-trivial groups. The main technical tool is a result on the Quillen cohomology of truncated -algebras, which ... -
QUiLT (Quantitative Ultrasound in Longitudinal Tissue Tracking): Stitching 2D images into 3D Volumes for Organ Health Monitoring
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2023-02)Volumetric property maps of organs (e.g., stiffness) are clinically significant and valu- able in diagnosing the onset and monitoring the progression of a large multitude of diseases such as autosomal dominant polycystic ... -
