In the course of an independent study project VA Shiva, a junior at Livingston High School, became interested in Ptolemy’s Theorem. He was at the time studying Vector Geometry and made an attempt to prove this theorem by vector methods.…

An integrated workstation for the study of fluid and particle motion in a fluidized bed reactor, which will permit effective and safe drug removal within an extracorporeal system, was constructed. Our main objective was to identify and investigate those flow…

A multi-staged system for off-line handwritten numeral recognition is presented here. After scanning, the digitized binary bitmap image of the source document is passed through a preprocessing stage which performs segmentation, thinning and rethickening, normalization, and slant correction. The recognizer…

A grand challenge of computational systems biology is to create a molecular pathway model of the whole cell. Current approaches involve merging smaller molecular pathway models’ source codes to create a large monolithic model (computer program) that runs on a…

Biomimetics of communication and media to design complex service systems is a relatively unexplored field. System biology’s recent understanding of cellular communication may provide insights to design and understand complex communication service systems. Cell membranes are one such design example;…
