Nudge plus: incorporating reflection into behavioral public policy

Incorporating Different Reflection Models into Surface Reconstruction

Generation of elevation maps of the seafloor is an important component of any autonomous system designed to navigate underwater. Because of its long range, sonar is the sensing medium of choice for underwater navigation. However, sonar systems designed to directly generate 3D images are generally complex or have low resolution. For these reasons, techniques that generate 3D elevation maps from ...

Ingredients for Good Health Policy-Making: Incorporating Power and Politics into the Mix

Translating research into public policy.

Influencing and informing public policy are explicit goals of active living research. Active living researchers, motivated by a desire to improve health, often wonder why their findings do not translate more readily into changes in the ''real world'' of local, state, and federal policies. The California Center for Public Health Advocacy (CCPHA) is a nonpartisan nonprofit research and advocacy o...

Using Reflection for Incorporating Fault-Tolerance Techniques into Distributed Applications

As part of the Legion metacomputing project, we have developed a reflective model, the Reflective Graph & Event (RGE) model, for incorporating functionality into applications. In this paper we apply the RGE model to the problem of making applications more robust to failures. RGE encourages system developers to express fault-tolerance algorithms in terms of transformations on the data structures...
