Measurements of transient photoconductivity and the cell spectral response provide information about the carrier mobility, recombination mechanisms and the electronic structure in bulk heterojunction solar cells.

From 2008-2010 we built an experimental personalized news system where readers can subscribe to organized channels of information that are curated by experts.

The rectangle-packing problem consists of finding an enclosing rectangle of smallest area that can contain a given set of rectangles without overlap.

We describe a novel simulator, SimPath, that combines qualitative reasoning, a geographic information system (GIS), and targeted probabilistic calculations to envision how adversarial battle plans can play out.

In collaboration with a domain expert from the packaging industry, we developed an innovative design for a reconfigurable parallel infeed system using a matrix of interchangeable smart belts.

In order to find out the viability of NLP and Twitter, we built a pipeline of tools to work specifically with Twitter input for the task of finding questions in…

Information Foraging in the Social Web: Information Foraging Theory is a theory of human-information interaction that aims to explain and predict how people will best shape themselves to their information…

We present two algorithms to assign time slots to nodes in a TDMA network that minimize the jitter in time slot assignments or minimize the channel access latency for flows…

In this paper, we present a problem and solutions to minimize the number of stationary relay nodes given a set of unknown but stationary sources.

In the present work, we demonstrate a printed alkaline battery fabricated with a polyacrylic acid (PAA)-based polymer gel electrolyte (PGE).

Recent developments have enabled the fabrication of electronic devices using additive printing techniques rather than subtractive photolithography.

We studied 62 million tweets collected over a four-week period and found that more than 100 languages were used.
