Research Paper Added
I have added the final report for my independent research study that I completed this semester with Dr. Tom Conte, Director for the Center of Embedded Systems Research at NC State. The paper is about a process for taking a filter from a digital mindset and implementing it in an analog scheme. It heavily focuses on how to map poles and zeros on the z-plane to the s-plane. Feel free to comment here if you have questions.
Meander over to the Writings section for more…

Hey!
Thanks for posting your research. I had some time earlier today and briefly read through a bit of it. Given, I am no electrical engineering major so, in general, I have no idea what you’re talking about in it. Though, it is neat to see how reports in the field of engineering are constructed. (All of us psychologists have to strictly follow APA formating rules if we wish to see our papers see the light of day.) I wish the paper that I am working on was complete but it probably won’t be for a considerable amount of time. Currently, my mentor and I are each writing parts of it and then exchanging these parts and editing them then sending them back and repeating until we have a solid final product. I’ve found it to be a fantastic way to learn about the intricacies of (psychological) technical writing.
Also, I am (as I am typing this comment) in Raleigh. Want to go grab lunch and catch up sometime this week? I was thinking Monday or Tuesday if your schedule allows for it. Just let me know via email. I’ll provide you with some more comments about your paper then. (And, I’d enjoy you explaining it to me in more detail.)

Oh man, totally. I’ve having lunch on Monday with my colleagues from Progress Energy (wanted to see them again before I leave for Maryland), but let’s definitely try having lunch on Tuesday. We can do anywhere in Raleigh or Cary — I’ve just got a 4pm meeting by NC State campus.
Mike is leaving for California on Tuesday though, so maybe a meetup could happen on Monday. His aim is nfreakrd and his email is mklee@ncsu.edu
What time is good for you on Tuesday? I’m excited! :)

Whoa. Actually, my lunch with the Progress Energy folks is NEXT Monday. So tomorrow can work too. What times are good for you?
I think Sachi and I will be heading to my apartment in Raleigh to finally move my desk and some final things out of there. So we can do lunch somewhere, or get a coffee or something later in the afternoon, or anything.

Hey, that’s awesome. Well, I can do something about 2:00 or 2:30. I thought I still had your phone number in my cell phone but apparently it was lost when I changed phones nearly a year ago. I imagine, since I have no way to get in contact with you outside of email, we can shoot for something later this afternoon.
My number is 828-719-7818 so give me a call when you get a chance. I look forward to talking with you then.

If you’re still interested in taking a look at the statistics/decision-making/sports analysis webpage it is located at this URL: http://www.hs.ttu.edu/hdfs3390/hothand.htm
Check it out. It’s pretty neat…even to someone like me who does not even have an interest in sports.

Cool, I’m looking at it now. That Improvisation group’s website is here: http://www.improveverywhere.com/home.php
I recommend reading over The Moebius mission, one of their most successful ones ever: http://www.improveverywhere.com/mission_view.php?mission_id=30
