In many parallel applications, network latency causes a dramatic loss in processor utilization. This paper examines software controlled access pipelining (SCAP) as a technique for hiding network latency. An analytic model of SCAP brieey describes basic operation techniques and performance improvements. Results are quantiied with benchmarks on the Cray-T3E. The benchmarks used are Jacobi-iterati...

Running head: Spatial Patterns Interpreting Spatial Patterns - An Inquiry into Formal and Cognitive Aspects of Tobler's First Law of Geography

The characterization, identification, and understanding of spatial patterns are central concerns of geography. Deeply rooted in the notion that geographic location matters, one testable assumption is that near things are more related than distant things—a concept often referred to as Tobler’s first law of geography. One means of quantifying this assumption is using measures of spatial autocorre...

Sociocognitive Inquiry

This chapter describes techniques for sociocognitive inquiry based on conceptual grid elicitation and analysis using web-based tools, such as WebGrid, which are designed to elicit conceptual models from those participating in a networked community. These techniques provide an interactive web-based experience with immediate payback from online graphic analysis, that provides an attractive altern...
