  • YGH 50Th Anniversary Exhibit Booklet
    The world is a fascinating place. Over the last 50 years we have had the honor and good fortune to build rich relationships and partner with colleagues and clients in the Northwest and over 40 countries around the globe. Here’s to 50 years of captivating, challenging, award-winning and just plain fun projects. 64 70 80 BUILDING A UNIQUE PRACTICE GROWTH & CHANGE Campbell Yost Grube “As in nature, the aesthetic qualities in architecture are derived from the way things work.” CAMPBELL YOST GRUBE ARCHITECTS YOST GRUBE HALL ARCHITECTS 90 2000 EVOLUTION & POSSIBILITY “Projects in the developing world have taught us to focus on the essential...” “... to produce architecture of excellence in service to our clients and society.” YGH ARCHITECTURE “From the Northwest, across the U.S. and to the Sudan...It’s been quite an adventure.” -Joachim Grube Building a Unique Practice Consider this: 50 years ago there were no computers. A GPS system was a well-worn map that folded 60 nicely in your back pocket. The level of communication we take for granted today didn’t exist. That didn’t make it any less exciting to be a small, young architecture fi rm hungry to make a difference. The fi rm’s focus on creative “problem seeking” led to signifi cant projects for the State of Oregon and the Oregon Board of Higher Education, as well as a national building program and work overseas. 70 60 -70’s Portland State University Campus Master Plans YGH developed three major campus plans for Portland State University from 1970 to 1985.

  • Image- and Point Cloud-Based Detection of Damage in Robotic And
    IMAGE- AND POINT CLOUD-BASED DETECTION OF DAMAGE IN ROBOTIC AND VIRTUAL ENVIRONMENTS By CALVIN DOBRIN A thesis submitted to the School of Graduate Studies Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey In partial fulfillment of the requirements For the degree of Master of Science Graduate Program in Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering Written under the direction of Aaron Mazzeo And approved by _________________________________ _________________________________ _________________________________ _________________________________ New Brunswick, New Jersey May, 2021 ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS IMAGE- AND POINT CLOUD-BASED DETECTION OF DAMAGE IN ROBOTIC AND VIRTUAL ENVIRONMENTS By CALVIN DOBRIN Thesis Director: Aaron D. Mazzeo Repair procedures are vital to maintain the integrity of long-term structures such as bridges, roads, and space habitats. To reduce the burden of manual inspection and repair of long- term environments, the proposed solution is an autonomous repair system used for damage detection and damage repair with very little human intervention. The primary purpose of this thesis is to lay the groundwork for the introductory steps related to detection of damage and creation of a virtual map for navigation in this system. It covers the process of initial detection of damage on a structure, confirmation of damage with detailed red-green-blue-depth (RGB-D) scanning, and development of a virtual map of the structure for navigation and localization of important features. We begin by reviewing numerous damage detection methods and establishing a case for optical 2D stereo imaging and 3D scanning. We performed image-processing and point cloud-processing methods to isolate damage in image and point cloud data. The potential of automating operation and data processing without human intervention is also discussed.

  • March 10, 2020 FACT SHEET* Mandating STIR/SHAKEN And
    March 10, 2020 FACT SHEET* Mandating STIR/SHAKEN and Proposing Additional Measures to Combat Illegal Spoofing Report and Order and Further Notice of Proposed Rulemaking – WC Docket Nos. 17-97, 20-67 Background: Each day, Americans receive millions of unwanted phone calls, including calls that “spoof” or falsify caller ID information with a malicious intent. These spoofed calls are not simply an annoyance—they result in billions of dollars lost to fraud, degrade consumer confidence in the voice network, and harm public safety. This Report and Order and Further Notice of Proposed Rulemaking would take a critical step in the Commission’s multi-pronged approach to ending illegal caller ID spoofing by requiring voice service providers to implement caller ID authentication technology. Known as STIR/SHAKEN, this technology enables voice service providers to verify that the caller ID information transmitted with a particular call matches the caller’s number—and provides valuable information to detect illegally spoofed calls. Widespread implementation of STIR/SHAKEN will reduce the effectiveness of illegal spoofing, allow law enforcement to identify bad actors more easily, and help voice service providers identify calls with illegally spoofed caller ID information before those calls reach their subscribers. Most importantly, it will help restore Americans’ trust in the voice network, which has been eroded by the prevalence of illegal caller ID spoofing. What the Order Would Do: • Require originating and terminating voice service providers to implement the STIR/SHAKEN caller ID authentication framework in the Internet Protocol (IP) portions of their networks by June 30, 2021, a deadline that is consistent with the TRACED Act, which was recently passed by Congress.

It was the city’s first commercial area and its first light industrial area. It also was a blighted area subjected to urban renewal, JENNIFE BY and an area where grand development proj- otos H ects were shot down. In the first part of a P two-part series, Ray Beck looks at the history of Flat Branch. The transfor- mation of the Flat Branch area of downtown into a park is nearly com- plete, ameliorating the deterioration along the creek that had long been Beck a source of concern for the city. Historically, many cities have been organized along waterways. While it is certainly no Missouri River, Flat Branch Creek is where our city took root, and it was an important factor in locating the county seat in Columbia in 1821. While it may be a strange concept to today’s Columbians, who have known it Home-grown data as an ugly drainage ditch, the creek was a boon to the residents who abandoned the nearby town of Smithton, a half-mile center sets record pace to the west, to obtain potable water from Profile on Page 5.

KAESTNER* INTRODUCTION Fundamental changes in the American economy have helped fuel a rapid rise of the internet. As traditional manufacturing has shifted to other countries from America, the growth of the technology sector has helped replenish those job losses.1 In general, as opposed to the manufac- turing sector, which adds value to commodities, the technology sector re- lies on adding value to information. Instead of transportation by trucks, barges, or trains, the technology sector relies on the movement of infor- mation over the internet to fuel its operations. Data centers are becoming more commonly used to enable this movement of information.2 In
