HUNTINGTON - An engineering class at Marshall University is using cutting-edge technology to seek solutions for one of Huntington's age-old problems. For the past semester, nine students in assistant professor Isaac Wait's undergraduate hydrologic engineering course have undertaken a research and analysis project to develop a computer model of the stormwater drainage system in the Chase Street area of Huntington's West End. Like many parts of the city, it has been prone to street flooding for several years.
After reviewing the coverage, Keegan Kyle, an intern on the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel's Public Investigator team, learned from the city Department of Public Works in July that residents can file complaints about potholes by phone or through an online system. Statistical analysis The newspaper's computer-assisted reporting specialist, Ben Poston, took the data grouped by census tracts and used SPSS statistical software to run a multiple linear regression to see how the different factors were associated with the time to repair potholes. The city officials told us pothole repair crews are instructed to fix the most heavily traveled roads first while residential areas take a lower priority.
A seemingly unimportant procedural change has made an enormous difference in how criminal cases progress through the Augusta court system. A computer-assisted analysis by The Augusta Chronicle of Richmond County Superior Court criminal cases under case assignment reveals a clearance rate unheard of in at least a decade.

Saturnino Fardo, the chief executive who supervises KKR's embattled financial fund, recently made a revealing comment to the New York Times. Fanlo said he has been through many financial crises, and "this is the most disturbing liquidity crisis, with real impact throughout the economy if it does not rectify." How many times must we flirt with "the big one" before it finally arrives? Our vulnerability is embedded in the new illusions created by the deregulated system. Basically, skeptical bankers overseeing loans were replaced with computer models. The abstracted market analysis knows how to crunch the numbers for the new financial instruments but is not so good at knowing the value of the underlying assets the "paper" stands for. The players who originally make the loans escape personal...
Bruce Tuckman (1965) reviewed fifty-five articles dealing with stages of small group development in an attempt to isolate those concepts common to the various studies and produce a generalizable model of changes in group life over time. He examined studies of 1. therapy groups, 2. human relations training or T-groups, and 3. natural and laboratory-task groups in terms of two realms - task and interpersonal. The way members acted and related to one another was considered group-structure or the interpersonal realm: the content of the interaction as related to the task was referred to as the task-activity realm. The purpose of this follow-up study is to discover whether anyone has empirically tested the model of group development proposed by Tuckman in 1965, to investigate any new models i...

After 20 years of using the same computer system, the Redlands Police Department has upgraded. According to Kurt Smith, Redlands police community analysis and technology director, there was a clear need to update the system. The Sanders Software Computer-Aided Dispatch and Records Management System was state of the art in the 1980s when the department first used it, but is now out of date, said Redlands Police Chief Jim Bueermann.
Baylor professor and computer security guru Randal Vaughn puts the darker side of technology into perspective with the notion that both white hats and black hats populate the world, "and most people are kind of gray." Much of the mischief done through technology comes from human error, he said, not deliberate evil. Computer security must cover three main areas. These include integrity in the system, or whether people trust it; confidentiality, or whose eyes see it; and availability, or how easy it is for users to access. Every organization struggles with security and a common belief among companies is that they must secure everything. Secure these things that are really critical -- customer data, information, financial models, the way you do analysis. Privacy is important to consumers w...
WASHINGTON -- In a government building in Herndon, Va., the U.S. Transportation Security Administration is building a computer system intended to anchor the next generation of information sharing and analysis to thwart the truck bomb threat. Meanwhile, scientists at America's national laboratories and defense research centers are developing scanning and detection equipment and such countermeasures as vehicle-disabling devices and bomb jammers, which can block or delay someone using a cell phone or other remote gadget from detonating an explosive.
