Finding Community in the Ruins of GeoCities: Distantly Reading a Web Archive
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2015-10)
This paper provides a brief overview of my work with the GeoCities web archive. Asking the question of “can we find community,” I use it as a case study to explain various methods for distantly reading web archives
Felines, Foragers, and Physicists: Supporting Scientific Outreach with Multi-Surface and Multi-Space Games
(Association for Computing Machinery, 2016-11-06)
We describe the design, development, and deployment of two scientific outreach games to support an open house event at an Institute for Quantum Computing (IQC) by an 11-member team of academics and practitioners over a ...
TalkingTiles: Supporting Personalization and Customization in an AAC App for Individuals with Aphasia
(ACM, 2015-11)
The development of ‘Post-PC’ interactive surfaces, such as smartphones and tablets, and specialized support software informed by HCI research has created new opportunities for Augmentative and Alternative Communication ...
Subtle and Personal Workspace Requirements for Visual Search Tasks on Public Displays
(ACM Press, 2017-05-06)
We explore how users approach and define personal space on large, public displays. Our results show that users of public displays use one of two strategies for visual search tasks: minimizers create a small window and work ...
Content Selection and Curation for Web Archiving: The Gatekeepers vs. the Masses
(Association for Computing Machinery, 2016-06)
Any preservation effort must begin with an assessment of what content to preserve, and web archiving is no different. There have historically been two answers to the question "what should we archive?" The Internet Archive's ...
Desiderata for Exploratory Search Interfaces to Web Archives in Support of Scholarly Activities
(Association for Computing Machinery, 2016-06)
Web archiving initiatives around the world capture ephemeral web content to preserve our collective digital memory. In this paper, we describe initial experiences in providing an exploratory search interface to web archives ...
A Novel Furnace Design Utilizing a Low Temperature Plastic Condensing Heat Exchanger
(1982-03)
The initial phase of a research and development program for the Consumers' Gas Co. and the Federal Department of Energy, Mines and Resources to design a condensing heat exchanger/gas fired residential air furnace has been ...
Sensitivity of the Solar Heat Gain Coefficient of Complex Fenestration Systems to the Indoor Convection Coefficient
(International Building Performance Simulation Association, 2016)
Accurate estimation of the solar gain of a fenestration system is important in analyzing the energy performance of buildings. Recently, models were developed for complex fenestration systems – glazing systems with attachments ...
Forced Convection From a Pair Of Spheres: A Three-Temperature Problem
(2015-05)
Interaction of spherical particles in a fluid flow is important in combustion, chemical processes and air pollution. In this study, a recently developed technique for characterizing multi-temperature convective heat transfer ...
Effective U-values and Shading Coefficients of Preheat/Supply Air Glazing Systems
(1986-06)
Research is documented which makes use of a computer program called VISION, This computer program was developed specifically to provide a detailed analysis of heat transfer occurring in glazing systems. VISION was modified ...
