Web services @ MIT
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2004)
There are several useful web services developed at MIT by students, faculty and researchers. However, they are scattered all over MIT. Most people at MIT are unaware of the availability of these web services and hence they ...
Performance and functional enhancement of artificial market psychology simulator
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2004)
Artificial Market Psychology Simulator (AMPS) is an adaptive and programmable simulation system designed to assist researchers in the study of psychology of securities traders. It forms a part of the larger system that ...
Wide-span cable structures
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2004)
In recent years, the application of cable structures in buildings has gained huge popularities. Although cable technology has been established since the 1950s, there is suddenly a surge in the number of its building ...
The stochastic air traffic flow management rerouting problem
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2004)
We formulate a model for planning the rerouting of aircraft to alleviate en-route congestion, with system capacity being modeled stochastically. To overcome problems with tractability, we apply a Dantzig-Wolfe decomposition ...
Software development of the Automated Law Review Submission System
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2004)
Organizing article data and information as well as streamlining communications are the most important goals of any submission system. The submission process used by law professors and law review journals severely fails to ...
Design methodologies for the seismic retrofitting of bridges
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2004)
This paper formulates an earthquake design strategy for bridges. Earthquakes can cause extreme economic damage and loss of life. Structural engineers must be conscience of earthquake slip type, earthquake proximity, and ...
Biodegradable microfluidic scaffolds for vascular tissue engineering
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2004)
This work describes the integration of novel microfabrication techniques for vascular tissue engineering applications in the context of a novel biodegradable elastomer. The field of tissue engineering and organ regeneration ...
Solving hybrid decision-control problems through conflict-directed branch & bound
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2004)
There exists a large class of problems that incorporate both logical decision and algebraic constraints. For example, in cooperative path planning (CPP) problem, obstacle avoidance can be achieved by selecting a direction ...
A wireless communication system for a tactile vest
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2004)
This research focuses on the development of wireless communication circuitry for a tactile display called the Tactile Vest. The display consists of a 4x4 array of vibrating motors worn around the user's torso in direct ...
Algorithmic advances towards a fully automated DNA genotyping system
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2004)
Short Tandem Repeats (STR) genotyping is a leading tool in forensic DNA analysis. In STR genotyping, alleles in a sample are identified by measuring their lengths to form a genetic profile. Forming a genetic profile is ...
