We have examined the technologies required to enable Mars In-Situ Resource Utilization (ISRU) because our understanding of Mars resources has changed significantly in the last five years as a result of recent robotic missions to the red planet. Two major developments, (1) confirmation of the presence of near-surface water in the form of ice in very large amounts at high latitudes by the Phoenix...

The need of enhancing design and evaluation of user experience exists. We propose a resource which helps to semi automate the design and evaluation of user experience.

INTRODUCTION Telecommunication infrastructure is being rolled out across Australia with little knowledge about the uptake by health professionals in remote areas. Computer mediated communication has the potential to offer educational support to remote practitioners; however, the viability of this is uncertain. The aim of this research was to establish and evaluate an internet-based resource lib...

An Implementation Model for Courses in Human Resource Training M. Sami'ee Zafarghandi, Ph.D. To arrive at an effective model for implementing courses in human resource training different approaches to this task were critically reviewed and their constructive aspects reutilized. The new approach was then tested to identify any probable defect. The final model consists of basic elem...

In this report, an integrated system approach to dynamic resource allocation is proposed. Some of the problems in dynamic resource allocation and the relationship of these problems to system structures are examined. A general dynamic resource allocation scheme is presented. A hierarchical system architecture which dynamically maps between processor structure and programs at multiple levels of i...

While the growth of MIS investment and its influence is making MIS evaluation ever more indispensable, little attention has been paid to assessing and communicating system effectiveness. This paper attempts to empirically assess the effectiveness of integrated human resource information system in Iranian oil industry. As suggested by recent research, the widely accepted IS success model is...

We describe the design, prototyping and evaluation of ARC, a system for automatically compiling a list of authoritative web resources on any (sufficiently broad) topic. The goal of ARC is to compile resource lists similar to those provided by Yahoo! or Infoseek. The fundamental difference is that these services construct lists either manually or through a combination of human and automated effo...

In this paper we identify and present techniques for determining and constructing parallel evaluation structures for polynomials on Custom Computing Machines (CCMs). Since CCMs achieve high throughput rates by the eeective use of pipelining, our primary interest is of the construction of resource eecient structures for any given polynomial P(x). Speciically, we consider CCMs whose conngurable l...
