"“The modern Mulan of tech"": A critical analysis of Asian American women and their experiences in computer science"
Existing research involving Asian American women in STEM explores the intersections of race/ethnicity, gender, and culture in regards to developing identity as a scientist. Many such studies focus on model minority stereotypes, racialized sexism, and familial expectations. This thesis will draw from prior research to investigate another axis of identity — field of study. Specifically, it will examine how Asian American women may be influenced by patterns of bias specific to the field of computer science. Investigating how Asian American women perceive and navigate intersections embodied by identity allows us to critically examine and improve the current climate of computer science. An analysis chapter on race and gender data in computing and STEM will address questions about representation and advancement of Asian American women in computing professions. Finally, this paper proposes culturally relevant pedagogy as an educational framework that could enhance the quality, diversity, and inclusivity of computer science education beyond the classroom.Submission original under an indefinite embargo labeled 'Open Access'.

On the sheaf-theoretic SL(2, C) Casson–Lin invariant
We prove that the (τ-weighted, sheaf-theoretic) SL(2, C) Casson–Lin invariant introduced by Manolescu and the first author is generically independent of the parameter τ and additive under connected sums of knots in integral homology 3-spheres. This addresses two questions asked by Manolescu and the first author. Our arguments involve a mix of topology and algebraic geometry, and rely crucially on the fact that the SL(2, C) Casson–Lin invariant admits an alternative interpretation via the theory of Behrend functions.</p
lin-31, a Caenorhabditis elegans HNF-3/fork head transcription factor homolog, specifies three alternative cell fates in vulva development
Late events in the cell-cell signalling pathway that controls the specification of vulva cell fates in C. elegans are characterized. The lin-31 gene acts downstream of the ras homolog let-60 and encodes a member of the HNF-3/fork head family of DNA-binding transcription factors. lin-31 regulates how vulval precursor cells choose their fate and in lin-31 mutants, these cells do not properly choose which fate to express and therefore adopt any of the 3 possible vulval cell fates in a deregulated manner..RE: 68 ref.; SC: CA; PE; 0TSource type: Electronic(1) http://upei-resolver.asin-risa.ca?sid=SP:CABI&id=pmid:&id=&issn=0890-9369&isbn=&volume=7&issue=6&spage=933&pages=933-947&date=1993&title=Genes%20and%20Development&atitle=lin-31%2c%20a%20Caenorhabditis%20elegans%20HNF-3%2ffork%20head%20transcription%20factor%20homolog%2c%20specifies%20three%20alternative%20cell%20fates%20in%20vulva%20development.&aulast=Miller&pid=%3Cauthor%3EMiller%2c%20L%20M%3bGallegos%2c%20M%20E%3bMorisseau%2c%20B%20A%3bKim%2c%20S%20K%3C%2Fauthor%3E%3CAN%3E19932337278%3C%2FAN%3E%3CDT%3EJournal%20article%3C%2FDT%3
Vascular endothelial growth factor restores delayed tumor progression in tumors depleted of macrophages
Genetic depletion of macrophages in Polyoma Middle T oncoprotein (PyMT)-induced mammary tumors in mice delayed the angiogenic switch and the progression to malignancy. To determine whether vascular endothelial growth factor A (VEGF-A) produced by tumor-associated macrophages regulated the onset of the angiogenic switch, a genetic approach was used to restore expression of VEGF-A into tumors at the benign stages. This stimulated formation of a high-density vessel network and in macrophage-depleted mice, was followed by accelerated tumor progression. The expression of VEGF-A led to a massive infiltration into the tumor of leukocytes that were mostly macrophages. This study suggests that macrophage-produced VEGF regulates malignant progression through stimulating tumor angiogenesis, leukocytic infiltration and tumor cell invasion

Satisfaction in Married Couples
Chia-Ling Lin
Abstract
The purpose of this study was to examine the relationships among spouses' attachment styles, conflict-coping strategies, and marital satisfaction. The sample was composed of 299 married couples living in the northern parts of Taiwan and having primary school-age children. Instruments used in this study were ”Experiences in Close Relationship Inventory”, “The Marital Coping Inventory”, and “Marital Satisfaction Inventory”. Data obtained were analyzed by contingency coefficient, One-way MANOVA, ANOVA and Canonical correlation. The major findings were as follows:
1. The relationship between spouse’s attachment styles
The result of contingency coefficient analysis revealed that husbands’ attachment style was significantly associated with wives’ attachment style. Secure participants tended to pair with secure partners and vice versa . The same was applicable to the preoccupied, fearful, as well as dismissing attachments. Among all types of pairing, the pairs of secure husbands and secure wives were most common, claiming a leading percentage of 17.4%.
2. Differences between husbands and wives regarding their
conflict-coping strategy and marital satisfaction
Data analysis indicated significant sex differences for conflict-coping strategy. The differences were evident in forms of conflict, introspective self-blame, positive approach, self-interest and seeking social support. Simply put, husbands reported greater use of positive approach and self-interest than did wives. Moreover, wives reported greater use of conflict, introspective self-blame, and seeking social support than did husbands.
As for marital satisfaction, husbands tended to be more satisfied than their wives for psychological aspects of marriage.
3. Difference among attachment styles regarding the conflict-
coping strategies and marital satisfaction
Results of the one-way MANOVA revealed that husbands and wives with different attachment styles were significantly different on conflict-coping strategies. Major differences lied in conflict, introspective self-blame, positive approach and avoidance. And there were differences on self-interest and seeking social support by husband with different attachment styles.
Results of the one-way MANOVA revealed that husbands and wives with different attachment styles were significantly different on marital satisfaction. Primary variations were of physical, economic, psychological, social, and philosophical aspects of marriage.
4. Differences among attachment styles pairing couples on the
conflict-coping strategies and marital satisfaction
Results of the one-way MANOVA revealed that husbands and wives paired with different attachment styles were significantly different on conflict-coping strategies. Major differences range from conflict, introspective self-blame, positive approach and avoidance.
Results of the one-way MANOVA revealed that husbands and wives paired with different attachment styles were significantly different on marital satisfaction. Primary variations were of physical, economic, psychological, social, and philosophical aspects of marriage.
5. The Relationships between conflict-coping strategy and
marital satisfaction
There are three canonical roots for husbands:
a. Husbands using more conflict, introspective self-blame and
avoidance, less positive approach, enjoy less satisfaction
in their physical, economic, social, psychological, and
philosophical aspects of marriage.
b. Husbands using more conflict, introspective self-blame,
positive approach, and seeking social support enjoy less
satisfaction in their social aspects of marriage.
c. Husbands involving themselves more in conflicts and social
supports and less in avoidance tend to get less physical satisfaction with their spouses.
There are two canonical roots for wives:
a. Wives using more conflict, introspective self-blame and
avoidance, less positive approach, enjoy less satisfaction
in their physical, economic, social, psychological,and
philosophical aspects of marriage.
b. Wives using methods like conflict, introspective self-blame,
and positive approach enjoy less satisfaction in both
economic and social aspects of the marriages.
Lastly, based on the above results, relevant implications were discussed and suggestions for the counseling services as well as future research were presented.
Obtaining Thickness-Limited Electrospray Deposition for 3D coating
The electrospray process utilizes the balance of electrostatic forces and surface tension within a charged spray to produce charged microdroplets with a narrow dispersion in size. In electrospray deposition, each droplet carries a small quantity of suspended material to a target substrate. Past electrospray deposition results fall into two major categories: (1) continuous spray of films onto conducting substrates and (2) spray of isolated droplets onto insulating substrates. A cross-over regime, or a self-limited spray, has only been limitedly observed in the spray of insulating materials onto conductive substrates. In such sprays, a limiting thickness emerges where the accumulation of charge repels further spray. In this study, we examined the parametric spray of several glassy polymers to both categorize past electrospray deposition results and uncover the critical parameters for thickness-limited sprays. The key parameters for determining the limiting thickness were (1) field strength and (2) the spray temperature, related to (1) the necessary repulsive field and (2) the ability for the deposited materials to swell in the carrier solvent vapor and redistribute charge. These control mechanisms can be applied to the uniform or controllably varied microscale coating of complex 3D objects.Peer reviewe
Uniqueness results for mean field equations with singular data
We prove uniqueness of solutions for mean field equations (Caglioti et. Al. Comm. Math. Phys. 174 (1995)) with singular data (Bartolucci et Al. Comm. Math. Phys. 229 (2002)),
arising in the analysis of two-dimensional turbulent Euler flows.
In this way, we generalize to the singular case some uniqueness results obtained by
Chang, Chen and the second author (Chang et. Al. New Stud. Adv. Math. 2 (2003)). In particular,
by using a sharp form of an improved
Alexandrov-Bol's type isoperimetric inequality, we are able to exploit the role played by
the singularities and then obtain uniqueness under weaker boundary regularity assumptions than those
assumed in (Chang et. Al. New Stud. Adv. Math. 2 (2003))
Author Co-Citation Analysis (ACA): a powerful tool for representing implicit knowledge of scholar knowledge workers
In the last decade, knowledge has emerged as one of the most important and valuable organizational assets. Gradually this importance caused to emergence of new discipline entitled ―knowledge management‖. However one of the major challenges of knowledge management is conversion implicit or tacit knowledge to explicit knowledge. Thus Making knowledge visible so that it can be better accessed, discussed, valued or generally managed is a long-standing objective in knowledge management. Accordingly in this paper author co- citation analysis (ACA) will be proposed as an efficient technique of knowledge visualization in academia (Scholar knowledge workers)
