teamsworked on and then were taken over and expanded upon by a third group of three students. Thecapstone educational experience in the ISAT program at James Madiosn University consists of afour-course sequence (6 credits) in the 3rd and 4th academic years. The courses follow thefollowing sequence. During the fall semester, students enroll in a one-credit hour course taught by two facultymembers. The primary goal is to develop a research proposal on an engineering, science, ortechnological problem facing society. Students are responsible for identifying a problem,undertaking background research, deciding whether to form a team or work independently, andidentifying one or more faculty advisors. Some projects are performed over multiple years

CONCLUSIONSMuch of our research can be described as topic analysis using short text concepts. While mosttopic analysis uses larger pieces of text from huge corpuses of data, there has been work donewith short text concepts to inspect Twitter and other microblogging data.

Belmont, Ma.ABSTRACTThe development of advanced building materials seems to be progressing as fast as thecreativeness of architects who demand them for use in their latest creations. Architectsoften spur onward the development of building materials in order to “push the envelope”of building size, height and form. In 1956, the famous architect Frank Lloyd Wrightonce envisioned a skyscraper that would be 5,280-ft. tall (500 stories). Wright’scontemporaries are still looking to build the Grand Design Skyscraper- some with asmany as 210 stories or approximately 3,000 ft. tall. Many contemporary architects seethe research for stronger, lighter, corrosive free building materials as the Holy Grail thatpromises that their modern buildings will live, not
