Human reliance on insect pollination services continues to increase even as pollinator populations exhibit global declines. Increased commodity crop prices and federal subsidies for biofuel crops, such as corn and soybeans, have contributed to rapid land-use change in the US Northern Great Plains (NGP), changes that may jeopardize habitat for honey bees in a part of the country that supports >4...

In this paper we describe a heterogeneous knowledge base management system which is being designed and developed at North Dakota State University with support from IBM Rochester, MN. The system is called KB-HYDRO. It will connect a variety of autonomous local database systems as well as one or more knowledge base systems into one unified system. We show how global serializability and atomic com...

robot-building lab. The lab was in a roped-off area of the main exhibition area. When the exhibition area was open to general conference attendees, they could come up to the rope and talk to the teams. Some people preregistered as teams (both winning teams did). Others, such as me, were assigned to teams. My teammates were Karl Altenburg from North Dakota State University ■ A robot-building lab...

Granted, the terrain here is pretty flat with gentle undulations amounting to less relief than one finds on the waves of the open ocean. And yes, some travelers battle w...
