Bibliographic databases in support of space processing research

The growth in the number and variety of online bibliographic databases has had two notable impacts on the research community: literature is more readily available to the individual researcher, but the researcher must become more familiar with databases in order to fully exploit them. This presentation provides an overview of online information retrieval; identifies some databases which provide citations to literature relevant to space processing; and offers suggestions regarding how to obtain database search services or additional information.

Are you ready for your first European?

Ways in which American online searchers can avail themselves of foreign services are discussed. It is noted that many European services offer the user an option in the choice of command protocols. Reasons why Americans generally do not use European online services include the fact that foreign databases tend to contain citations to foreign documents and many Americans do not read and speak any language other than English.

Bibliography On Multiprocessors And Distributed Processing

Multiprocessor and Distributed Processing Bibliography package consists of large machine-readable bibliographic data base, which in addition to usual keyword searches, used for producing citations, indexes, and cross-references. Data base contains UNIX(R) "refer" -formatted ASCII data and implemented on any computer running under UNIX(R) operating system. Easily convertible to other operating systems. Requires approximately one megabyte of secondary storage. Bibliography compiled in 1985.

Strategic management of research and development: A literature search

Each abstract was reviewed as to its described contents and potential applicability to the topics expected to be addressed at the 1988 National Conference on strategic management of research and development. In each section the citations are listed alphabetically by senior or corporate author. The names, addresses, and telephone numbers of organizations from which the listed material may be requested, are provided.

Research and Technology Objectives and Plans Summary (RTOPS)

This publication represents the NASA research and technology program for FY86. It is a compilation of the Summary portions of each of the RTOPs (Research and Technology Objectives and Plans) used for management review and control of research currently in progress throughout NASA. The RTOP summary is designed to facilitate communication and coordination among concerned technical personnel in government, industry, and universities. The first section containing citations and abstracts of the RTOPs is followed by four indexes: Subject, Technical Monitor, Responsible NASA Organization, and RTOP number.

Flight research on natural laminar flow

Five decades of flight experiences with natural laminar flow (NLF) have provided a basis of understanding how this technology can be used for reduction of viscous drag on modern practical aircraft. The effects of cruise unit Reynolds number on NLF achievability and maintainability; compressibility effects on Tollmein-Schlichting growth; flight experiment on the Cessna Citation III business jet; flight instrumentation on Lear 28/29; OV-I NLF engine nacelle experiments; and viscous drag reduction are examined.

A jet in a crossflow

In the transition from hover to wingborn flight, V/STOL aircraft rely on the direct thrust of lift jets to supplement wing generated lift. The lifting jets interact with the flow over the aerodynamic surface to produce a complex flow around the aircraft. The simplest configuration which retains the essential characteristics of the jet/aerodynamic-surface interaction problem is a subsonic round jet exhausting perpendicularly through a large flat plate into a uniform crossflow. This configuration was studied extensively, both by experiment and by analysis. As a result, a fairly complete experiment data base exists for comparison with the numerical calculations. Research publications and presentations in this area are included. Each citation is followed by an abstract of the work.

Searching the PASCAL database - A user's perspective

The operation of PASCAL, a bibliographic data base covering broad subject areas in science and technology, is discussed. The data base includes information from about 1973 to the present, including topics in engineering, chemistry, physics, earth science, environmental science, biology, psychology, and medicine. Data from 1986 to the present may be searched using DIALOG. The procedures and classification codes for searching PASCAL are presented. Examples of citations retrieved from the data base are given and suggestions are made concerning when to use PASCAL.
