The current status of noncredit continuing engineering education is described and criticized to facilitate the planning of future activity in this field. First, in a review of the background and current nature of continuing education in general, it is shown that rapid technological change makes periodic continuing education imperative for engineers. Pertinent findings of the Joint Advisory Committee on Continuing Engineering studies, and its recommendations for future action by universities,...

This study was developed and approved as a pilot project preliminary to the major task of abstracting, classifying and assessing approximately one thousand dance research studies. Most of these studies are university sponsored, date from 1901 to the present, and are found on library shelves or in department files as master's theses. When the major project is completed, precise and readily available information concerning each and every one of these studies will be documented for the first time....

Since the 1990s, German soldiers have been continuously deployed abroad without geographical restrictions. This policy breaks with the customs of the Cold War, in which the Bundeswehr focused strictly on continental roles and missions of forward defense in the North Atlantic Treaty Organization. The thesis argues that the evolution of the Bundeswehr to operational forces was a military adaptation determined by sociopolitical and military dynamics. Missions abroad transformed the Bundeswehr and...

Present appropriation accounting systems are one of the top seven problems facing the Department of Defense according to Deputy Secretary of Defense William Perry. As part of the process of evaluating the potential benefits of a proposed single year accounting system, this research study analyzes obligation patterns of the DoD's Operations and Maintenance (O and M) appropriations between fiscal years 1977 and 1992. Although trends for the entire fiscal year are discussed for 11 appropriations,...

This study was conducted to identify the affect the downsizing of the Department of Defense is having on the small business subcontractors and subcontracts of the top ten defense contractors. A questionnaire via telephone interviews was utilized to gather information from the top ten defense contractors. The study concludes that small business subcontract trends and goal percentages within DOD will remain constant despite the decrease in defense spending. The study identified commodity and...

RMAs consist of technological advances, operational innovation, and organizational adaptation which combine to transition to a new form of warfare. OMFTS is a new concept which applies the principles of maneuver warfare to maritime power protection. This paper asks whether OMFTS is an appropriate concept for exploiting new technology, what changes need to be made, organizational implications, and recommendations for implementation. With a few changes, OMFTS can leverage the new technology...

The ability of a ship's crew to control damage is a critical measure of readiness for U.S. Navy ships. Proficiency in this area is largely a function of routine shipboard training. Since damage control skills tend to be perishable if not continuously practiced, shipboard personnel must have an effective means of exercising damage control skills. Computer based technologies that utilize the advantages of interactive courseware (ICW) present training opportunities that challenge the traditional...

In fiscal year 1994, the federal government obligated more than $23.5 billion towards information technology (IT) products and services, which represents about five percent of its total discretionary spending. The Clinger-Cohen Act of 1996 was enacted by the U.S. Congress to help prevent wasteful government spending on IT projects by mandating that federal agencies develop a process to manage their IT projects as investments, including methods to continuously improve the efficiency and...

The National Naval Medical Center (NNMC), Bethesda, Maryland, set as a strategic goal the improvement of internal efficiency among its many clinical activities. Clinical services lacked the ability to improve their statistical process, which relied on workload and expense data. Since the data systems had removed provider identifiers, it was impossible to produce data on provider productivity and efficiency. Numerous efforts to improve the clinical staff's efficiency were unsuccessful because of...

West Africa has become a global hub for illegal drugs transiting from both Latin America and Asia to end users in North America, Europe, the Middle East, and Asia. The type of illegal substances has expanded from cocaine and heroin to amphetamine-type stimulants. West Africa is particularly susceptible to influence by transnational criminal organizations (TCOs) due to endemic corruption, minimal border security, regional geographic location, and poor resource management. This thesis determines...

The main purpose of this study is to determine the effect of multiple intelligences theory (MIT)-based education on students' academic achievement. In this research, the meta-analytic method was adopted to determine this effect, and studies related to this subject carried out in Turkey were compiled. The effect sizes of the studies included in the meta-analysis were compared in terms of the variables of educational level, course type, being a postgraduate thesis or doctoral dissertation,...

The primary purpose of this thesis is to analyze the database of contract claims and Requests for Equitable Adjustment (REAs) experienced at the Naval Air Systems Command (NAVAIR) between January 1997 and December 1998 as a means to identify areas of potential improvement in management practices which could result in reduced numbers of claims being submitted. Areas of focus are on claims from NAVAIR Headquarters in Patuxent River, MD and from NAVIR's three warfare centers. This thesis...

The Department of Defense (DoD) uses simulation for many purposes. Early computer based distributed simulation support environments allowed individual models to communicate with each other but fell short of providing a general distributed simulation solution until the advent of High Level Architecture (HLA). HLA allows users to combine sub-models into one simulation, but it employs a subscription based communications scheme that did not exist in previous support environments. Analysts often use...

A previous study on the effect of surface roughness on the turbulent boundary layer, using a Fortran code, ITRACT, solved for the characteristics of a laminar, transitional and turbulent boundary layer on smooth surfaces. The present study investigates the influence of surface roughness on a compressible turbulent boundary layer and then extends the usefulness of ITRACT by including in it the optional capability of rough-surface boundary-layer calculations. Surface roughness was represented by...

The Naval Postgraduate School (NPS) Center for Information Systems Security (INFOSEC) Studies and Research (NPS CISR) invites experts in the field of INFOSEC to NPS to lecture on computer security. Other universities, government, and non-government organizations need similar lectures. Two problems arise: experienced security practitioners are few in number and cannot spend a considerable amount of time on the lecture circuit. Also, for many institutions a regular lecture series would be too...

In the current economic and social climate, recruiting young men and women into the armed services has become increasingly difficult. The goal of this thesis was to examine the effects of personal background characteristics and recruiting station demographic characteristics on individual recruiter productivity. The thesis uses DMDC data on Navy and Marine recruiters who served on recruiting-duty during the 1995-1999 period. This file is then matched to county level demographic information for...

Unintentional perioperative hypothermia is an unwanted but common occurrence during anesthesia. A national multidisciplinary panel developed National Perioperative Thermoregulation Guidelines (NPTG) directed at maintaining patient normothermia perioperatively by identifying pre-operative risk factors, and instituting active warming measures early. The purpose of the study was to pilot test the proposed guidelines to identify barriers to implementation, and suggestions for improvement. Data were...
