10181 Abstracts Collection -- Program Development for Extreme-Scale Computing
From May 2nd to May 7th, 2010, the Dagstuhl Seminar 10181
``Program Development for Extreme-Scale Computing \u27\u27
was held in Schloss Dagstuhl~--~Leibniz Center for Informatics.
During the seminar, several participants presented their current
research, and ongoing work and open problems were discussed. Abstracts of
the presentations given during the seminar as well as abstracts of
seminar results and ideas are put together in this paper.

Index to 1981 NASA Tech Briefs, volume 6, numbers 1-4
Short announcements of new technology derived from the R&D activities of NASA are presented. These briefs emphasize information considered likely to be transferrable across industrial, regional, or disciplinary lines and are issued to encourage commercial application. This index for 1981 Tech Briefs contains abstracts and four indexes: subject, personal author, originating center, and Tech Brief Number. The following areas are covered: electronic components and circuits, electronic systems, physical sciences, materials, life sciences, mechanics, machinery, fabrication technology, and mathematics and information sciences
Index to 1986 NASA Tech Briefs, volume 11, numbers 1-4
Short announcements of new technology derived from the R&D activities of NASA are presented. These briefs emphasize information considered likely to be transferrable across industrial, regional, or disciplinary lines and are issued to encourage commercial application. This index for 1986 Tech Briefs contains abstracts and four indexes: subject, personal author, originating center, and Tech Brief Number. The following areas are covered: electronic components and circuits, electronic systems, physical sciences, materials, life sciences, mechanics, machinery, fabrication technology, and mathematics and information sciences

Characterizing Usability Issue Discussions in Open Source Software Projects
Usability is a crucial factor but one of the most neglected concerns in open
source software (OSS). While far from an ideal approach, a common practice that
OSS communities adopt to collaboratively address usability is through
discussions on issue tracking systems (ITSs). However, there is little
knowledge about the extent to which OSS community members engage in usability
issue discussions, the aspects of usability they frequently target, and the
characteristics of their collaboration around usability issue discussions. This
knowledge is important for providing practical recommendations and research
directions to better support OSS communities in addressing this important topic
and improve OSS usability in general. To help achieve this goal, we performed
an extensive empirical study on issues discussed in five popular OSS
applications: three data science notebook projects (Jupyter Lab, Google Colab,
and CoCalc) and two code editor projects (VSCode and Atom). Our results
indicated that while usability issues are extensively discussed in the OSS
projects, their scope tended to be limited to efficiency and aesthetics.
Additionally, these issues are more frequently posted by experienced community
members and display distinguishable characteristics, such as involving more
visual communication and more participants. Our results provide important
implications that can inform the OSS practitioners to better engage the
community in usability issue discussion and shed light on future research
efforts toward collaboration techniques and tools for discussing niche topics
in diverse communities, such as the usability issues in the OSS context.Comment: 26 pages, 2 figures, accepted to CSCW2024; supplementary material

Cumulative index to NASA Tech Briefs, 1986-1990, volumes 10-14
Tech Briefs are short announcements of new technology derived from the R&D activities of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration. These briefs emphasize information considered likely to be transferrable across industrial, regional, or disciplinary lines and are issued to encourage commercial application. This cumulative index of Tech Briefs contains abstracts and four indexes (subject, personal author, originating center, and Tech Brief number) and covers the period 1986 to 1990. The abstract section is organized by the following subject categories: electronic components and circuits, electronic systems, physical sciences, materials, computer programs, life sciences, mechanics, machinery, fabrication technology, and mathematics and information sciences
Management: A continuing bibliography with indexes, March 1983
This bibliography lists 960 reports, articles, and other documents introduced into the NASA scientific and technical information system in 1982
Earth Resources: A continuing bibliography (issue 32)
This bibliography list 580 reports, articles and other documents introduced into the NASA scientific and technical information system. Emphasis is placed on the use of remote sensing and geophysical instrumentation in spacecraft and aircraft to survey and inventory natural resources and urban areas. Subject matter is grouped according to agriculture and forestry, environmental changes and cultural resources, geodesy and cartography, geology and mineral resources, hydrology and water management, data processing and distribution systems, instrumentation and sensors, and economic analysis
