Assessing the Future: Eportfolios at Johns Hopkins

The Eportfolio Task Force was charged by the Committee of Homewood Advisors to conduct a focused inquiry into the current and potential uses of electronic portfolios at johns Hopkins to assess their potential impact and facilitate their development on campus. The Task Force managed and evaluated six pilot eportfolio pilot projects and researched eportfolio implementations at other universities. The enclosed report summarizes these activities and describes the potential uses of eportfolios at johns Hopkins.Johns Hopkins Eportfolio Task Force; Center for Educational Resources; IT@J

Development of the Multi-Purpose Transportation System for the Space Launch System (SLS) Core Stage (CS) Flight Article

NASA's Multi-Purpose Transportation System (MPTS) is designed to transport the Space Launch System (SLS) vehicle segments by waterway and roadway. It is tasked with transporting the vehicle from where it is manufactured to its intermediate test location and final launch destination. Its design incorporates mechanisms that release degrees of freedom to prevent excessive loading during transit and ensure a successful delivery of the vehicle to its intended destination. In addition to the Core Stage (CS) flight article, the system will also move three Structural Test Articles (STAs), the Dynamic Demonstration Unit (DDU), and a simulated CS Pathfinder (weight, center of gravity, outer mold line dimensions, and overall length) over road terrain at four NASA centers and on the Pegasus barge. The MPTS independently supports the article at both ends while operating as a combined unit through automated monitoring of its released degree of freedom and corrective responses. This allows the system to constrain its payload in a statically determinate manner while traversing highly variable terrain. Multi-body simulation of the transportation route is useful to predict free-body motion within its range of mobility. The MPTS has completed its design and analysis developmental cycles. This paper describes the design challenges encountered in developing this system of large-scale structure, which incorporates complex mechanisms. The unique techniques and methodologies developed for analytical assessment of the hardware are also discussed

The MPTS independently supports the article at both ends while communicating as a combined unit through automated monitoring of its released degree of freedom and corrective responses. This allows the system to constrain its payload in a statically determinate manner while traversing across highly variable terrain. Multi-body simulation of the transportation route is useful to predict free-body motion within the specified travel ranges. The MPTS has completed its design and analysis developmental cycles. This unpublished paper will describe the design challenges encountered in developing this system of large scale structure which incorporates complex mechanisms. The unique techniques and methodologies developed for analytical assessment of the hardware will be also be discussed. Key results from analytical evaluations as well as ongoing performance testing will be presented

UC-276 Akwaaba Web Server Security Project

Our team engaged in a mock cybersecurity drill. Our objective was to take on the roll of cybersecurity consultants and to secure a mock business website. Afterwards, we were to engage in the active defense of the site from another team, while perpetuating attacks on another team\u27s site. Goals: -Secure a business website and then engage in it\u27s active defense. -Perform a successful attack(s) on another team\u27s website. Outcomes: -Developed a comprehensive security policy -Documented site risk and vulnerabilities -Implemented security and configuration change

Neonatal Foreskin Substrate Has Limitations for the Immunofluorescent Screening of Monoclonal Antibodies

Two monoclonal antibodies to type IV collagen showed a marked decrease in the labeling of the dermal-epidermal junction of neonatal foreskin while the basement membrane around dermal blood vessels was brightly stained. In contrast, these antibodies labeled the junction and dermal blood vessels with approximately equal intensity when adult skin of nonforeskin site was used as substrate. Other antibodies to matrix molecules (bullous pemphigoid antigen, epidermolysis bullosa acquisita antigen, and laminin) showed excellent staining of both the dermal-epidermal junction and dermal blood vessels in both neonatal foreskin and adult skin. Further, the ultrastructural appearance of the substrates appeared identical. The implication is that neonatal foreskin is not a good substrate to use for the routine screening of monoclonal antibodies to matrix components by indirect immunofluorescence since a "false negative" evaluation may occur

Epidermolysis Bullosa Acquisita Antigen, a Major Cutaneous Basement Membrane Component, Is Synthesized by Human Dermal Fibroblasts and Other Cutaneous Tissues

The epidermolysis bullosa acquisita (EBA) antigen is identified as 2 chains: a 290,000-dalton protein and a less prominent 145,000-dalton protein. The 290,000-dalton chain is synthesized by human keratinocytes in culture. In this study, we show that the 290,000-dalton chain is synthesized by human skin fibroblasts and cutaneous human tumors. In contrast, HT1080 cells, a human sarcoma cell line known to produce matrix molecules (such as laminin and type IV collagen), does not synthesize the EBA antigen. Further, the EBA antigen is absent from serum and blood components, placenta, amnion, lung, and the EHS tumor, a murine sarcoma that produces large amounts of laminin, type IV collagen, nidogen, entactin, and basement membrane proteoglycan but is present in cutaneous tumors of adnexal and epithelial origin. These data suggest that while the EBA antigen is synthesized by both human skin keratinocytes and fibroblasts and is therefore not specific for a primordial germ layer, it does appear to be specific for tissue containing a stratified squamous epithelium
