Blind--Education--Arithmetic; Arithmetic--Study and teaching--Data processing; Speech synthesis
The design and development of a microprocessor-controlled mathematics trainer is described. The trainer is designed primarily for a blind student, and uses synthetic speech to verbally present mathematics problems in the form of incomplete...
Adjustment (Psychology) in old age; Aging; Elderly poor; Nursing home patients
BACKGROUND: Current successful aging theory excludes individuals with disease or
disability, limits the potential for successful aging in minority and lower socioeconomic
populations, focuses on behavioral determinants of health rather than social...
The Louisville Leader was an African-American newspaper published from 1917 to 1950 by I. Willis Cole in Louisville, Kentucky. There is a tear down the center of each page of this issue.
Supervisory control systems--Security measures; Automatic data collection systems--Security measures
This thesis describes the development of a prototype security hardened field device (such as a remote terminal unit) based on commodity hardware and implementing a previously developed security architecture. This security architecture has not been...
An investigation was made into the relative costs of excavation retention by two systems: conventional soldier pile-wale-tieback support, and support by soil nailing. The investigation included design of excavation supports by the two...
"Here the artist aspires to a metamorphosis which hints partly at mythology, partly at science fiction. However, with mock pathos, Barney's floppy ears and dual kiss-curls inadequately match up to the four horns of the ram which the video's...

This paper models a realistic problem involving workforce assignment and training for a large manufacturing environment. In this particular environment, the workforce is undertrained and most assignments will result in necessary training. This...
High dynamic range imaging involves imaging at a bit depth higher than the typical 8-12 bits offered by standard video equipment. We propose a method of imaging a scene at high dynamic range, 14+ bits, to detect motion correlated with changes in...

Supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) systems are networked control systems used in many critical infrastructure areas such as power water and transportation. Many of these systems continue to use legacy field devices that lack cyber...
In order to study the movements of autonomous mobile robots, a tool is needed to quantify those movements. A testbed is an apparatus that provides a designated space for multiple mobile robots while tracking their position in real-time. That...

The Louisville Leader was an African-American newspaper published from 1917 to 1950 by I. Willis Cole in Louisville, Kentucky. This issue says Vol. 31. No. 43. but is actually Vol. 31. No. 13.
The Louisville Leader was an African-American newspaper published from 1917 to 1950 by I. Willis Cole in Louisville, Kentucky. This issue says Vol. 32. No. 43. but is actually Vol. 32. No. 48. There are creases across the center of each page that...
Many dedicated-use computer systems sold as complete products require a turn-key design delivered to the customer. This requires a system which is stable, secure, and serviceable. Adaptability of the system to existing software applications is a...
Supervisory control systems--Security measures; Computer security; Security systems
This thesis documents the successful development and testing of a more secure industrial control system field device architecture and software. The implementation of a secure field device has had limitations in the past due to a lack of secure...
Colorectal cancer is the fourth most common cancer, and the fourth leading cause of cancer related death in the United States. It also happens to be one of the most preventable cancers provided an individual performs a regular screening. For years...
