Peer Effects in the Classroom: Learning from Gender and Race Variation
, 2000
"... Peer effects are potentially important for understanding the optimal organization of schools, jobs, and neighborhoods, but finding evidence is difficult because people are selected into peer groups based, in part, on their unobservable characteristics. I identify the effects of peers whom a child en ..."

Junctional complexes in various epithelia
- J. CELL BIOL
, 1963
"... The epithelia of a number of glands and cavitary organs of the rat and guinea pig have been surveyed, and in all cases investigated, a characteristic tripartite junctional complex has been found between adjacent cells. Although the complex differs in precise arrangement from one organ to another, it ..."

GLIMPSE: A Tool to Search Through Entire File Systems
, 1994
"... GLIMPSE, which stands for GLobal IMPlicit SEarch, provides indexing and query schemes for file systems. The novelty of glimpse is that it uses a very small index --- in most cases 2-4% of the size of the text --- and still allows very flexible full-text retrieval including Boolean queries, approxima ..."

Behavioral theories and the neurophysiology of reward,
- Annu. Rev. Psychol.
, 2006
"... ■ Abstract The functions of rewards are based primarily on their effects on behavior and are less directly governed by the physics and chemistry of input events as in sensory systems. Therefore, the investigation of neural mechanisms underlying reward functions requires behavioral theories that can ..."

-bodied, dark ale whose taste alone is a reward. Changing the scenery again, you are in the middle of a Saturday morning market in a small town in southern France and run into a nicely arranged stand of rosé and red wines. Knowing the presumably delicious contents of the differently priced bottles to varying
ATP: A Reliable Transport Protocol for Ad-hoc Networks
, 2003
"... Existing works have approached the problem of reliable transport in ad-hoc networks by proposing mechanisms to improve TCP's performance over such networks. In this paper we show through detailed arguments and simulations that several of the design elements in TCP are fundamentally inappropriat ..."

inappropriate for the unique characteristics of ad-hoc networks. Given that ad-hoc networks are typically stand-alone, we approach the problem of reliable transport from the perspective that it is justifiable to develop an entirely new transport protocol that is not a variant of TCP. Toward this end, we present
Input/Output Characteristics of Scalable Parallel Applications
- In Proceedings of the Supercomputing ’95
, 1995
"... Rapid increases in computing and comm unication performance are exacerbating the long-standing problem of performance-limited input/output. Indeed, for many otherwise scalable parallel applications, input/output is emerging as a major performance bottleneck. The design of scalable input/output syste ..."

Boreal fire effects on subsistence resources in Alaska and adjacent
, 2008
"... Rural communities in the northern boreal forest depend on a suite of wild species for subsistence, including large game animals, furbearers, fish, and plants. Fire is one of the primary ecological disturbances and determinants of landscape pattern in the northern boreal forest. We review responses o ..."
