Experiments on Temporal Variable Step BDF2 Algorithms
(2014-05-01)Efficient algorithms for solving stiff PDEs are of great interest. For developing such an algorithm step sizes should vary in both space and time. We have to understand each separately first before putting it together, and ... -

EXPERT HUMAN RESOURCES DECISION MAKERS: UNCOVERED IN CONTEXT
(2009-05)This thesis investigates how human resources (HR) experts make decisions within the context of their organization. It uses the Naturalistic Decision Making model (NDM) to best determine the processes deployed by 20 HR ... -
Expert Opinions in the Media : Analysis of Climate Scientists' Evolving Stances on Climate Change
(2015-04)Our hypothesis was that the gradual increase in the number of stories that mentioned both climate change and a natural disaster that could potentially be affected by a changing climate (e.g., drought) would mimic changes ... -
Expert Perspectives on the Design and Use of Learning Materials for Neocartographic Interfaces
(2014)The design of learning materials varies greatly across neocartographic interfaces and there has yet to be best practices established within the discipline. Learning materials vary not only in type (e.g., tutorials, tooltips, ... -

The Expiration of the Multi-Fiber Arrangement: An Analysis of the Consequences for South Asia
(2005)The authors examine the political economy of the textile and garment sectors in India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka and Nepal to determine the consequences of the expiration of the Multi-Fiber Agreement. The authors ... -
Expitaxial growth and magnetic propreties of Fe3O4 flims on TiN buffered Si(001), Si(110), and Si(111) substrates
(2010)Epitaxial Fe3O4 thin films were grown on TiN buffered Si (001) , Si( 110) , and Si( 111) substrates by dc reactive sputtering deposition. Both Fe3O4 films and TiN buffer are fully epitaxial when grown at substrate ... -
Explaining agent behavior through intentional sequences
(University of Wisconsin - Whitewater, 2021-12)One of the main goals of this research and Explainable Artificial Intelligence (XAI) is to improve trust between human and AI. Local XAI approaches address trust through explanations of individual decisions but fail to ... -
Explaining Export Varieties: the Role of Comparative Advantage
(2010-07)This study investigates whether the variety of products in a country's exports is explained by the country's comparative advantage. The author's model predicts greater export variety in industries that intensively use a ... -
Explaining Turnover Intention in State Government: Examining the Roles of Gender, Life Cycle and Loyalty
(2008)To understand the intent of state employees to leave their jobs, this paper looks at life-cycle, gender and loyalty. The authors find that age, experience, and geographical preference coupled with economic and family ... -
Explanation and Prediction: Strategies for Extending Scientific Realism to Mathematics
