Big Thicket Plant Ecology: an Introduction

Description: Originally published in 1979, Geraldine Ellis Watson’s Big Thicket Plant Ecology is now back in print. This updated edition explores the plant biology, ecology, geology, and environmental regions of the Big Thicket National Preserve. After decades of research on the Big Thicket, Watson concluded that the Big Thicket was unique for its biological diversity, due mainly to interactions of geology and climate. A visitor in the Big Thicket could look in four different directions from one spot and v… more

PERC 2 High-End Computer System Performance: Scalable Science and Engineering

Description: During two years of SciDAC PERC-2, our activities had centered largely on development of new performance analysis techniques to enable efficient use on systems containing thousands or tens of thousands of processors. In addition, we continued our application engagement efforts and utilized our tools to study the performance of various SciDAC applications on a variety of HPC platforms.

Simple Models and Methods for Estimating the UltrasonicReflectivity of Spot Welds

Description: This paper describes models and methods for estimating theacoustic reflectivity of the welded interfaces between spot-welded sheetsfrom normal-incidence pulse-echo ultrasound signals. The simple geometryof the problem allows an abstraction that does not resort to complex waveequations. Instead, a reflectivity model predicts the timing andamplitude of the echoes arriving at the probe. This reflectivity model isnested in a signal processing model; recovering reflectivity firstrequires deconvoluti… more

SBIR Phase II Final Report for Scalable Grid Technologies for Visualization Services

Description: This project developed software tools for the automation of grid computing. In particular, the project focused in visualization and imaging tools (VTK, ParaView and ITK); i.e., we developed tools to automatically create Grid services from C++ programs implemented using the open-source VTK visualization and ITK segmentation and registration systems. This approach helps non-Grid experts to create applications using tools with which they are familiar, ultimately producing Grid services for visuali… more
