Planning for County Highways

IN T R O D U C T IO N More than 76,000 miles of roads are under county control in Indiana—a responsibility for county road authorities which almost defies measurement. The magnitude of the task is indicated, however, by two factors: annual expenditures, which in 1958 totaled over $40 million, and employment, which totaled several thousand persons. This responsibility places great problems on th...

Improved predictability, timing yield and power consumption using hierarchical highways-on-chip planning methodology

Interconnectmis-prediction is amajorproblem innano-scaledesign thatmaydiminish thequalityof physical design algorithms or may even result in design divergence. In this paper, a new interconnect-planning methodology based on assume and enforce strategy is presented. In this methodology, some regions of the chip are planned to provide auxiliary routing resources and improve the interconnect delay...

Safety status of farm tractors that operate on public highways in four rural Kentucky counties.

Kentucky FFA students inspected 153 farm tractors for safety features that prevent operator injuries during tractor overturns, highway collisions, runovers, and power take-off (PTO) entanglements. Tractor mean age was 23.6 years (SD = 20.9). Rollover protective structures (ROPS) were present on 50.66% of tractors, but only 33.33% of these had functional seatbelts. Loose and damaged seats were f...
