An automated version of the operation span task
- Behavior Research Methods
, 2005
"... We present an easy-to-administer and automated version of a popular working memory (WM) capacity task (operation span; Ospan) that is mouse driven, scores itself, and requires little intervention on the part of the experimenter. It is shown that this version of Ospan correlates well with other measu ..."

Strategy use in the operation span task
- In (Eds). Proceedings of the 27 th Annual Meeting of the Cognitive Science Society. Stresa: Cognitive Science Society
, 2005
"... In research investigating the relation between working memory and performance on cognitive tasks, researchers explain their findings in terms of capacity limitations. However, informal observations in our own research suggest that individual differences in the use of mnemonic strategies may be an ad ..."

be an additional factor. Here, we investigated the type of strategies that individuals adopt in the operation span task and how strategies relate to the measured operation span. The operation span task is a memory task in which participants have to verify mathematical operations and memorise words (Turner &
The unity and diversity of executive functions and their contributions to complex “Frontal Lobe” tasks: a latent variable analysis
- COGNIT PSYCHOL
, 2000
"... This individual differences study examined the separability of three often postulated executive functions—mental set shifting ("Shifting"), information updating and monitoring ("Updating"), and inhibition of prepotent responses ("Inhibition")—and their roles in complex ..."

Sorting Test (WCST), Tower of Hanoi (TOH), random number generation (RNG), operation span, and dual tasking. Confirmatory factor analysis indicated that the three target executive functions are moderately correlated with one another, but are clearly separable. Moreover, structural equation modeling
Scale and performance in a distributed file system
- ACM Transactions on Computer Systems
, 1988
"... The Andrew File System is a location-transparent distributed tile system that will eventually span more than 5000 workstations at Carnegie Mellon University. Large scale affects performance and complicates system operation. In this paper we present observations of a prototype implementation, motivat ..."

Fibonacci Heaps and Their Uses in Improved Network optimization algorithms
, 1987
"... In this paper we develop a new data structure for implementing heaps (priority queues). Our structure, Fibonacci heaps (abbreviated F-heaps), extends the binomial queues proposed by Vuillemin and studied further by Brown. F-heaps support arbitrary deletion from an n-item heap in qlogn) amortized tim ..."

time and all other standard heap operations in o ( 1) amortized time. Using F-heaps we are able to obtain improved running times for several network optimization algorithms. In particular, we obtain the following worst-case bounds, where n is the number of vertices and m the number of edges
Myrinet: A Gigabit-per-Second Local Area Network
- IEEE Micro
, 1995
"... Abstract. Myrinet is a new type of local-area network (LAN) based on the technology used for packet communication and switching within "massivelyparallel processors " (MPPs). Think of Myrinet as an MPP message-passing network that can span campus dimensions, rather than as a wide-a ..."

The processing-speed theory of adult age differences in cognition
- Psychological Review
, 1996
"... A theory is proposed to account for some of the age-related differences reported in measures of Type A or fluid cognition. The central hypothesis in the theory is that increased age in adulthood is associated with a decrease in the speed with which many processing operations can be executed and that ..."

Diagnosing Network-Wide Traffic Anomalies
- In ACM SIGCOMM
, 2004
"... Anomalies are unusual and significant changes in a network's traffic levels, which can often span multiple links. Diagnosing anomalies is critical for both network operators and end users. It is a difficult problem because one must extract and interpret anomalous patterns from large amounts of ..."

A Data Structure for Dynamic Trees
, 1983
"... A data structure is proposed to maintain a collection of vertex-disjoint trees under a sequence of two kinds of operations: a link operation that combines two trees into one by adding an edge, and a cut operation that divides one tree into two by deleting an edge. Each operation requires O(log n) ti ..."
