MIDAS : minor incident decision analysis software
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2004)MIDAS is the minor incident decision analysis software that acts as an advisory tool for plant decision makers and operators to analyze the available decision alternatives for resolving minor incidents. The minor incidents ... -
Middle ear pressure gain and cochlear input impedance in the chinchilla
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2008)Measurements of middle ear conducted sound pressure in the cochlear vestibule PV have been performed in only a few individuals from a few mammalian species. Simultaneous measurements of sound-induced stapes velocity VS are ... -
Middle East respiratory syndrome in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia : insights from publicly available data
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2015)Since 2012, more than 1300 cases of Middle East respiratory syndrome (MERS) have been diagnosed worldwide, the vast majority of which have occurred in Saudi Arabia and over 40% of which have ended in death. In Spring 2014, ... -

The middle of nowhere : town design and sense of community in rural youth
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2005)This thesis tests the theory behind the new urbanist call for "modem version[s] of the traditional town" with respect to one physical design feature: the clearly defined town center. It asks the question: how does the ... -
MIDI Gesamtkunstwerk and a schema for creative design
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1989)"MIDI Gesamtkunstwerk and a Schema for Creative Design" formulates a model for creative thought and examines its impact when applied to the making of art. Use of the Schema as a system of design has propelled my work from ... -
Midlatitude Mesoscale Convective Complex precipitation cycles and structures
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1983) -
Midlevel ventilation's constraint on tropical cyclone intensity
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2010)Midlevel ventilation, or the flux of low-entropy air into the inner core of a tropical cyclone (TC), is a hypothesized mechanism by which environmental vertical wind shear can constrain a TC's intensity. An idealized ... -
MIDOS : Multimodal Interactive DialOgue System
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2009)Interactions between people are typically conversational, multimodal, and symmetric. In conversational interactions, information flows in both directions. In multimodal interactions, people use multiple channels. In symmetric ... -

Migrant Capitalism: Emigration, Remittances, and Urbanization in Punjab
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2023-09)This dissertation addresses a classical question in the social sciences: how does capitalism relate to international emigration, and conversely, how does emigration shape the form capitalist development takes in a given ... -
Migrant sarifa settlements and state-Building in Iraq
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2020)This dissertation examines the negative dialectical relationship between state-building and sarifa (reed) and kukh (mud) dwellings built by rural migrants in Baghdad. Rural migrants served as the paradigmatic developmental ... -
Migratable AI
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2020)Conversational AI agents are proliferating, embodying a range of devices such as smart speakers, smart displays, robots, cars, and more. We can envision a future where a personal, conversational AI agent could migrate ... -
