This study compares three interpolation methods to create continuous surfaces that describe temperature trends in Bangladesh between years 1948 and 2007. The reviewed techniques include Spline, Inverse Distance Weighting (IDW) and Kriging. A statistical assessment based on univariate statistics of the resulting continuous surfaces indicates that there is little difference in the predictive powe...

BACKGROUND With the current funding climate and need for advancements in implementation science, there is a growing demand for grantsmanship workshops to increase the quality and rigor of proposals. A group-based implementation science-focused grantsmanship workshop, the Implementation Development Workshop (IDW), is one methodology to address this need. This manuscript provides an overview of t...

This is a paper about premodification in the English noun phrase, focusing on functions of attributive adjectives. Modification in general is an issue that has received comparatively little attention in linguistic research, at least outside the field of syntax (see eg Frawley 1992: 437); Although there are some systematic descriptions of premodifier functions to be found in the literature, much...

We present TARGIT’s Xbone memory-based analytics server and define the concept of an Inverted Data Warehouse (IDW). We demonstrate the high-performance analytics properties of this particular design, as well as its resistance to failures. Additionally, we present a large scale solution in which TARGIT Xbone and IDW are implemented incorporating Google search data. The solution is used for so-ca...

Final Report: Combustion of High Molecular Weight Hydrocarbon Fuels and JP-8 at Moderate Pressures (Research Area 1: Mechanical Sciences) Report Title The objective of this research is to characterize combustion of high molecular weight hydrocarbon fuels and jet-fuels (in particular JP-8) and surrogates of jet-fuels in laminar non-uniform flows at elevated pressures upto 2.5 MPa. Experimental a...
