Kerr nonlinearity in silicon beyond 2.35μm (2011)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

We present measurements of χ ^(3) in silicon in the 2.35 to 2.75μm interval, showing Kerr coefficients close to 1×10^( -18) m ^(2) /W. The results clearly identify silicon as a promising platform for nonlinear processes in the mid-infrared.

Nanophotonic devices and circuits (2011)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Advances in nanoscale fabrication techniques in dielectric and metallic material systems has opened up new opportunities in photonics and plasmonics for solving long standing problems in information systems and telecommunication systems. In this talk... Read More about Nanophotonic devices and circuits.

Elucidating Sustainability Sequencing, Tensions, and Trade-Offs in Development Decision Making (2011)
Journal Article

The development process at the site or building scale is a multiobjective process requiring the cooperation of many professions and other stakeholders. The addition of multiple sustainability objectives, often seemingly unrelated (economic versus env...

A framework to mine high-level emerging patterns by attribute-oriented induction (2011)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

This paper presents a framework to mine summary emerging patterns in contrast to the familiar low-level patterns. Generally, growth rate based on low-level data and simple supports are used to measure emerging patterns (EP) from one dataset to anothe...

A hybrid interestingness heuristic approach for attribute-oriented mining (2011)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

A hybrid interestingness heuristic algorithm, clusterAOI, is presented that generates a more interesting generalized final table than traditional attribute-oriented induction (AOI). AOI uses a global static threshold to generalize attributes irrespec... Read More about A hybrid interestingness heuristic approach for attribute-oriented mining.

Finding associations in composite data sets: The CFARM algorithm (2011)
Journal Article

In this paper, a composite fuzzy association rule mining mechanism (CFARM), directed at identifying patterns in datasets comprised of composite attributes, is described. Composite attributes are defined as attributes that can take simultaneously two... Read More about Finding associations in composite data sets: The CFARM algorithm.

Fluorescence lifetime imaging of E-combretastatin uptake and distribution in live mammalian cells (2011)
Journal Article

To investigate within live mammalian cells the uptake and disposition of combretastatins, fluorescence lifetime imaging was used with two-photon excitation (2PE). Combretastatin A4 (CA4) and analogues are potential anticancer drugs due to their abili...

An ultra fast detection method reveals strain-induced Ca2+ entry via TRPV2 in alveolar type II cells (2011)
Journal Article

A commonly used technique to investigate strain-induced responses of adherent cells is culturing them on an elastic membrane and globally stretching the membrane. However, it is virtually impossible to acquire microscopic images immediately after the...

YouTube as a repository : the creative practice of students as producers of Open Educational Resources (2011)
Journal Article

In this paper we present an alternative view of Open Educational Resources (OERs). Rather than focusing on open media resources produced by expert practitioners for use by peers and learners, we examine the practice of learners as active agents, prod...
