Guidelines for development structured FORTRAN programs

Computer programming and coding standards were compiled to serve as guidelines for the uniform writing of FORTRAN 77 programs at NASA Langley. Software development philosophy, documentation, general coding conventions, and specific FORTRAN coding constraints are discussed

Curricular noticing: A comprehensive framework to describe teachers’ interactions with curriculum materials

Building on the work of Professional Noticing of Children’s Mathematical Thinking, we introduce the Curricular Noticing Framework to describe how teachers recognize opportunities within curriculum materials, understand their affordances and limitations, and use strategies to act on them. This framework builds on Remillard’s (2005) notion of participation with curriculum materials, connects with and broadens existing research on the relationship between teachers and written curriculum, and highlights new are as for research. We argue that once mathematics educators better understand the strategic curricular practices that support ambitious teaching, which we refer to as professional curricular noticing, then this knowledge can lead to recommendations for how to support the curricular work of teachers, particularly novice teachers

Sugar Beet Production in Utah: Cost and Net Return 1945-1963

For a number of years the Agricultural Experiment Station has measured and reported the costs and returns in the production of the important agricultural enterprises on Utah farms. These studies have been initiated by a detailed investigation of a sufficient number of farms to reflect the average conditions of the enterprise under study. In each succeeding year sufficient additional field and other data are collected to reflect the changes in prices, costs, and method of production to determine the current costs and returns for that year. Periodically detailed studies have been repeated for each enterprise and the data kept current by the method described above

Planning and Elaboration

Buildings, like people, need to be a part of something larger than themselves, and to be approachable and understandable. Cities which are organized on the scale of society, and whose creation requires scales of time, effort, and resources far beyond any single project, represent this larger view, while the way individuals relate and fit into them determines whether they are humane and pleasant places..

Field Corn Production for Grain or Silage in Northern Utah 1962 Costs and Returns

Field corn for grain, silage, or pasturing has been produced in Utah since its settlement by the Mormon Pioneers. Those reporting data, however, have made no division of production and value of the different uses of corn until recent years. Previous to 1959 all field corn was reported in grain equivalents for the state as a whole. No county data are reported in Utah except by the Agricultural Census and, hence, only at 5 year intervals. While there has always been some corn harvested for grain each year, the bulk of the corn grown in Utah has been for silage. In recent years, however, there has been increased interest in producing grain corn because shifting price relations with other feed grains have made corn production more attractive

Bulletin No. 334 - Costs and Returns from Peach Production: Selected Areas, Utah

Peach production in Utah is an important fruit enterprise. Preliminary estimates place Utah\u27s 1947 peach crop at about 933,000 bushels, valued at about $1,679,000. This is equal to about 1.2 percent of the value of all agricultural commodities produced in the state, and about 27 percent of the value of Utah\u27s fruit crop. The 1947 peach crop was, however, about 27 percent, or 200,000 bushels larger than the ten-year average, 1937 to 1946, and was the second largest crop on record in the last thirty years. In terms of value the 1947 crop was exceeded only by the crops of 1943 and 1944

An Economic Analysis of Hog Production on Farms of Northern Utah 1958 and 1960

This study of hog production as an alternative farm enterprise was undertaken to develop information that could be used to help answer the question frequently asked of what comparative economic position hog production has on Utah farms

Orchard Establishment Costs on the Wasatch Front

Present and potential fruit farmers are asking the question, How much do I have invested in an acre of fruit by the time the trees are old enough to produce a paying crop? or How much would I have to invest to bring an acre of young trees into production? Sometimes the question is How much do trees add to the value of bare land? or How much value must I depreciate my trees each year to recover my investment by the time their productive life has passed

Scene-based nonuniformity correction with video sequences and registration

We describe a new, to our knowledge, scene-based nonuniformity correction algorithm for array detectors. The algorithm relies on the ability to register a sequence of observed frames in the presence of the fixed-pattern noise caused by pixel-to-pixel nonuniformity. In low-to-moderate levels of nonuniformity, sufficiently accurate registration may be possible with standard scene-based registration techniques. If the registration is accurate, and motion exists between the frames, then groups of independent detectors can be identified that observe the same irradiance (or true scene value). These detector outputs are averaged to generate estimates of the true scene values. With these scene estimates, and the corresponding observed values through a given detector, a curve-fitting procedure is used to estimate the individual detector response parameters. These can then be used to correct for detector nonuniformity. The strength of the algorithm lies in its simplicity and low computational complexity. Experimental results, to illustrate the performance of the algorithm, include the use of visible-range imagery with simulated nonuniformity and infrared imagery with real nonuniformity
