Contiguous search by mobile agents in cube networks and chordal rings
Creators: name: Huang, Miao Jun
Publisher: name: Université d'Ottawa / University of Ottawa
Year: 2004
Subjects: subject: Computer Science.

description: In this thesis we consider the problem of searching for an intruder in a network. There is a team of collaborative software agents that are deployed to capture a hostile intruder (e.g., a virus). These agents move along the network links and the intruder has the capability of escaping arbitrarily fast. We propose different strategies for the solution of the problem in some widely used topologies for the local area network and interconnection network: hypercube network, butterfly network and chordal ring network. In each topology, different models are studied depending on the capabilities of agents; i.e., agents' synchronicity, cloning power and visibility. For each model, we analyze the strategies in terms of number of agents employed, number of moves performed by the agents, and time.
The effect of tool sharing on reliability of flexible manufacturing systems.

Publisher: name: Université d'Ottawa / University of Ottawa
Year: 1993
Subjects: subject: Physics, Atomic.

description: A major consideration in opting for reliability and flexibility in Flexible Manufacturing Systems (FMSs) is to enhance the availability of resources in order to maintain an uninterrupted production. This means that sufficient redundancies must be foreseen at the preliminary production planning stage to cope with the random breakdowns of components. In this research effort four mathematical models were developed to determine the spare requirements for tooling system in FMSs, so that a desired system reliability is achieved with minimum cost and/or tool slots occupancy of the system. For the first time, the influences of tool sharing on cost, reliability, spares requirement, and tool magazines capacity of FMSs, in which tools and tool transporter are subject to general failure distributions, were analyzed. The developed models have been applied to a hypothetical example and the computational results were compared, for the case where tool sharing is not applicable and where tool sharing can be implemented. Several sets of sensitivity analysis were also performed on different system parameters through which the effects of the number of tools shared among machines, the required system reliability, and operating times for tools on the system reliability and cost were assessed.

description: Background: Physical activity (PA) is a safe and effective strategy to help mitigate health challenges associated with breast cancer (BC) survivorship. However, the majority of BC survivors are not meeting the minimum recommended PA (≥150 min of moderate to vigorous intensity). Project MOVE was developed as a model for increasing PA that combined a) Microgrants: funds ($2000) awarded to applicant groups to develop and implement a PA initiative and b) Financial incentives: a reward ($500) for increasing group PA. The purpose of this paper was to provide an exploratory analysis of effectiveness of Project MOVE on PA behavior, PA motivation, and quality of life (QoL) in female BC survivors. The differential outcomes between women meeting and not meeting PA guidelines were also investigated. Methods: This pre-post test, preliminary trial included groups of adult (18+ years) self-identified female BC survivors, who were post-surgery and primary systemic chemo- and radiation therapy, and living in British Columbia, Canada. PA was assessed by accelerometry. PA motivation and QoL were assessed by self-report. Data were collected at baseline, 6-months, and 12-month time points. Repeated measures mixed ANOVAs were used to test changes in the main outcomes. Results: A total of 10 groups were awarded microgrants between May 2015 and January 2016. Groups comprised of 8 to 12 women with a total of 87 participants. A statistically significant increase was found between time points on weekly moderate to vigorous PA (p = .012). This was mediated by a significant interaction between those meeting PA guidelines and those not meeting guidelines at baseline by time points (p = .004), with those not meeting guidelines at baseline showing the greatest increase in MVPA. A statistically significant difference across time points was found for intrinsic motivation (p = .02), physical functioning (p < .001), physical health limitations (p = .001), emotional health limitations (p = .023), social functioning (p = .001) and general health (p = .004). Conclusion: These results provide promising support for a unique approach to increasing PA among BC survivors by empowering women and optimizing PA experiences through the use of microgrants and financial incentives.

Antidepressants for depression after concussion and traumatic brain injury are still best practice
Creators: name: Silverberg, Noah D.
name: Panenka, William J.
Publisher: name: BioMed Central
Year: 2019

description: Background: Depression is a common complication of traumatic brain injury (TBI). New evidence suggests that antidepressant medication may be no more effective than placebo in this population. Main body: Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors are recommended as first-line treatment for depression in contemporary expert consensus clinical practice guidelines for management of TBI. This recommendation is based on multiple prior meta-analyses of clinical trials in depression after TBI as well as depression in the general population. The evidence is mixed. A recent clinical trial and new meta-analysis including that trial found no benefit of antidepressants for depression following TBI. We argue that this finding should not change practice, i.e., patients who present with depression after TBI should still be considered for antidepressant treatment, because they may (1) benefit from robust placebo effects, (2) benefit from an alternative or adjunctive medication if the agent prescribed first does not achieve a depression remission, and (3) make improvements that are not captured well by traditional depression outcome measures, which are confounded by TBI sequelae. Patients with mild TBI are especially appropriate for antidepressant therapy because they, on average, more closely resemble patients with no known TBI history enrolled in typical primary Major Depressive Disorder clinical trials than patients enrolled in TBI trials in placebo-controlled trials published to date. Conclusion: TBI, and especially mild TBI, is not a contraindication for antidepressant therapy. Health providers should routinely screen and initiate treatment for depression after TBI.
Creation of Debye diffraction-limited multifocal arrays and their application in laser nanofabrication

Publisher: name: Swinburne
Year: 2024

description: Similar to a 3D printer, the direct laser writing technique is capable of fabricating arbitrary 3D structures at the micro/nanoscale by using a tightly focused laser beam. However, the processing speed of the direct laser writing is slow due to the high resolution and the limitation of light steering devices. To solve this problem, we have demonstrated a new technique namely dynamic laser printing, which is able to produce a 3D structure at a time by employing an array of focused laser beams. In this way, the processing speed can be increased by several orders of magnitude.

Methylation of steroidal C(3)-ketones: A conformational analysis.
Creators: name: Stollar, Hyman.
Publisher: name: Université d'Ottawa / University of Ottawa
Year: 1969
Subjects: subject: Chemistry, Organic.

description: The synthesis of 5beta-cholest-7-en-3-one (47) is described. Methylation of this compound results in 2beta-methyl-5beta-cholest-7-en-3-one (62) and 2,2-dimethyl-5beta-cholest-7-en-3-one (63). The structure of (62) was proven by its conversion to the known 2beta-methyl-5beta-cholestan-3-one (66). An explanation is offered for the uncharacteristic mass spectrum exhibited by the ethylene ketal of (62). The structure of (63) was proven primarily from the mass spectrum of its ethylene ketal. The optical rotatory dispersion curves of the above compounds are reported and discussed. The fact that methylation of (47) occurs at C2 rather than C4 is explained by invoking conformational transmission effects in the enolate anion formation step in the reaction. Use is made of Bucourt's rules of dihedral angle changes in describing the conformational transmission effects. Enol acetylation of (47) results in a large predominance of the C2, C3 unsaturated enol acetate.

description: DINCH (diisononylcyclohexane-1,2-dicarboxylate) was introduced into the world market in 2002 as a non-aromatic plasticizer and phthalate substitute. We analyzed 300 urine samples (24 h voids) of the German Environmental Specimen Bank (ESB for Human tissues, ESB Hum) for specific DINCH metabolites by on-line HPLC-MS/MS with isotope dilution quantification. Urine samples of the ESB Hum were from the years 1999, 2003, 2006, 2009 and 2012, chosen to investigate the appearance and a possible trend of DINCH exposure since its market introduction. No DINCH metabolites were detected in the 1999 and 2003 samples. From 2006 on, the percentage of samples with DINCH metabolites above the LOQ increased significantly over the years (7% in 2006, 43% in 2009 and 98% in 2012). The cyclohexane-1,2-dicarboxylicacid-mono(hydroxy-isononyl) ester (OH-MINCH) was the predominant metabolite. Median (and 95th percentile) concentrations (in ìg/L) increased from 0.75, p < 0.001). The median (95th percentile) DINCH intake in 2012 was calculated to be 0.14 (1.07) ìg/kg body weight/day which is considerably below daily intakes currently deemed tolerable. DINCH is regarded to have a preferred toxicological profile over certain anti-androgenic phthalates. The continuation of DINCH measurements in the ESB Hum and other human biomonitoring studies like the German Environmental Survey (GerES) allows tracking the development of DINCH body burdens, the distribution of exposure levels and daily intakes, providing basic data for future toxicological assessment and further epidemiological studies.

description: Plastics bags are resourceful materials used in all venues of everyday life. Yet, they create menace all over the world. They are wasteful burden on the environment. And once disposed to the environment, they can't be degraded. In this work, we studied a special fungus which has the ability to break down plastic bags. We were able to isolate an enzyme called Laccase. This enzyme has the ability to oxidise plastic bags in the presence of nutrients. This work can be an important step in lifting the burden of plastics have on the environment.

description: Advanced chemometric analysis is required for rapid and reliable determination of physical and/or chemical components in complex gas mixtures. Based on infrared (IR) spectroscopic/sensing techniques, we propose an advanced regression model based on the extreme learning machine (ELM) algorithm for quantitative chemometric analysis. The proposed model makes two contributions to the field of advanced chemometrics. First, an ELM-based autoencoder (AE) was developed for reducing the dimensionality of spectral signals and learning important features for regression. Second, the fast regression ability of ELM architecture was directly used for constructing the regression model. In this contribution, nitrogen oxide mixtures (i.e., N2O/NO2/NO) found in vehicle exhaust were selected as a relevant example of a real-world gas mixture. Both simulated data and experimental data acquired using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) were analyzed by the proposed chemometrics model. By comparing the numerical results with those obtained using conventional principle components regression (PCR) and partial least square regression (PLSR) models, the proposed model was verified to offer superior robustness and performance in quantitative IR spectral analysis.

A topographic and photogrammetric study of rock glaciers in the southern Yukon Territory
Creators: name: Page, Amaris
Publisher: name: Université d'Ottawa / University of Ottawa
Year: 2009
Subjects: subject: Physical Geography.
subject: Geomorphology.

description: This research statistically examined the topographic characteristics of rock glacier locations in the Yukon Territory and tested the suitability of the Canadian air photo collection for photogrammetrically measuring rock glacier velocities. A database of more than 1500 rock glacier locations in the Yukon was compiled. The topographic characteristics of rock glaciers in a 12% sample were compared by classifying the sample by morphology (lobate or tongue-shaped) and activity (active, inactive or relict) and testing the difference between the class properties of elevation, slope, aspect and area. Tongue-shaped rock glaciers occurred at significantly higher mean and minimum elevations than lobate forms. Active rock glaciers were significantly larger than inactive and relict forms, and active forms were significantly more north-facing than inactive forms. The photogrammetry study found that it is possible to measure rock glacier movement rates from multi-temporal air photos of the quality and frequency available for the Canadian North. It was also found that thermokarst development could be tracked on multi-temporal air photos, though its presence hinders the measurement of movement. With the continued acquisition of high quality photos, the technique should prove useful for monitoring both rock glacier movement and thermokarst development.
Brazilian external voting and transnationalism: emigrant connections, drivers and agendas

description: This thesis investigates external voting for Brazil, which is a process that permits voting rights for Brazilians living abroad in their homeland elections. This empirical study proposes to identify what external voting rights represent to the Brazilian emigrant community. It analyses transnational relationships and political connections of emigrants that are reflected by their voting rights in Brazil, seeking to identify the drivers of Brazilian voting abroad. External voting is a consequence of global migration and political transnationalism, and has been adopted by more than 150 countries in the world.
Income inequality and health in Canada, 1981-1996.

Publisher: name: Université d'Ottawa / University of Ottawa

Subjects: subject: Canadian Studies.

description: Background. U.S. and other studies have established an inverse association between a variety of measures of income inequality and population health. Objectives. To describe income inequality (market income and income after tax) and population health (eight measures) in Canada and the provinces between 1981 and 1996; to establish associations between these variables; and to explore whether the associations are measure dependent. Method. Ecologic, analytic, mixed-design study, based on analysis of existing data. Results. The association between the Gini coefficient (market income) and total mortality was very weak in 1981 and 1986, but very strong in 1991 and 1996. Otherwise, associations between income inequality and different health outcomes were non-existent, weak, or sporadic. Conclusions. Income inequality depends on the income concept used. Associations between income inequality and health are measure dependent. Structural changes in Canadian society may account for the emerging association between income inequality and total mortality from 1991 onwards.
Between Colonial Enterprises and Imperialist Dystopias. Amitav Ghosh’s The Calcutta Chromosome (1995)

Publisher: name: Iperstoria
Year: 2020
Subjects: Amitav Ghosh; The Calcutta Chromosome; South Asian American; postcolonialism; global writing

description: Winner of the 1997 Arthur C. Clarke Award for Science Fiction, Amitav Ghosh's The Calcutta Chromosome (1995) takes place within an apartment in a near-future, wrecked New York, where Antar, an immigrant computer programmer, finds himself cyber-investigating the mysterious disappearance of a colleague in Calcutta, brought there by the compelling desire to find out the truth about the transmission of malaria in 19th-century colonial India. Across various locations and temporalities the novel is then launched in a time-bending, overlapping post-modern narration which, through the multiple, ‘transfective’ embodiments of the malarial Plasmodium, refracts the global interconnectedness of human migrations, old and new colonialisms, and dynamics of hospitality and community formation. As I will discuss in my study, Ghosh’s fourth novel imaginatively re-negotiates Asian American writing in a globalized framework, inaugurating the author’s creative engagement, in the following decades, with broader and more ramified transatlantic histories across Europe, Asia and the United States. With a look at its circuits of publishing, readership, and reception my reading of the novel, therefore, will investigate how the deployment of a cyberpunk avatar aesthetic integrates, contests and re-inscribes South Asian American diasporic experiences and literary representations, particularly via gendered tropes.

description: Alveolar echinococcosis (AE) is caused by the intermediate stage of Echinococcus multilocularis. We aimed to correlate computed tomography (CT) data with histology to identify distinct characteristics for different lesion types. We classified 45 samples into five types with the Echinococcus multilocularis Ulm Classification for Computed Tomography (EMUC-CT). The various CT lesions exhibited significantly different histological parameters, which led us to propose a progression model. The initial lesion fit the CT type IV classification, which comprises a single necrotic area with the central located laminated layer, a larger distance between laminated layer and border zone, a small fibrotic peripheral zone, and few small particles of Echinococcus multilocularis (spems). Lesions could progress through CT types I, II, and III, characterized by shorter distances between laminated layer and border zone, more spems inside and surrounding the lesion, and a pronounced fibrotic rim (mostly in type III). Alternatively, lesions could converge to a highly calcified, regressive state (type V). Our results suggest that the CT types mark sequential stages of the infection, which progress over time. These distinct histological patterns advance the understanding of interactions between AE and human host; moreover, they might become prognostically and therapeutically relevant.

description: We have determined the composite luminosity function (LF) for galaxies in 60 clusters from the 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey. The LF spans the range -22.5 < MbJ <-15, and is well fitted by a Schechter function with M*bJ = -20.07 ± 0.07 and α = -1.28 ± 0.03 (H0 = 100 km s-1 Mpc-1, ΩM = 0.3, ΩΔ = 0.7). It differs significantly from the field LF, having a characteristic magnitude that is approximately 0.3 mag brighter and a faint-end slope that is approximately 0.1 steeper. There is no evidence for variations in the LF across a wide range of cluster properties: the LF is similar for clusters with high and low velocity dispersions, for rich and poor clusters, for clusters with different Bautz-Morgan types, and for clusters with and without substructure. The core regions of clusters differ from the outer parts, however, in having an excess of very bright galaxies. We also construct the LFs for early (quiescent), intermediate and late (star-forming) spectral types. We find that, as in the field, the LFs of earlier-type galaxies have brighter characteristic magnitudes and shallower faint-end slopes. However, the LF of early-type galaxies in clusters is both brighter and steeper than its field counterpart, although the LF of late-type galaxies is very similar. The trend of faint-end slope with spectral type is therefore much less pronounced in clusters than in the field, explaining why variations in the mixture of types do not lead to significant differences in the cluster LFs. The differences between the field and cluster LFs for the various spectral types can be qualitatively explained by the suppression of star formation in the dense cluster environment, together with mergers to produce the brightest early-type galaxies.

Delegitimization, Recontextualization, and (Re)Framing Processes A Study of the Coverage of a ‘Populist’ Representative by a ‘Populist’ Talk Show

Subjects: delegitimization strategies; Discourse-Historical Approach (DHA); ideological discourse; framing; recontextualizing principles

description: This paper analyzes the coverage of Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, an American politician whose political discourse has aligned her with left-wing populism (LWP), by Tucker Carlson Tonight, a Fox News talk show hosted by a political commentator whose views have aligned him with right-wing populism (RWP). It explores the mechanisms that govern the presentation, interpretation, and framing of the antagonistic opponent via the analysis of delegitimization strategies, recontextualizing principles, and (re)framing processes. Findings suggest that the antagonist is delegitimized with ironic formulations, ad hominem attacks and debasing attributions that cast doubts on her authority and expertise. Recontextualization involves the suppression and concealment of the antagonist’s standpoints and underlying ideologies, and reframing occurs in discourse surrounding racism based on whom is the (perceived) recipient of racism. While many of the strategies employed are emblematic of populist discourse, others connote ageism, sexism, and racism expressed in overt and covert ways.

description: Background: More people are surviving stroke but are living with functional limitations that pose increasing demands on their families and the healthcare system. The aim of this study was to determine the extent to which stroke survivors use healthcare services on a population level compared to people without a stroke. Methods: This was a cross-sectional population-based survey that collected information related to health status, healthcare utilization and health determinants using the 2014 Canadian Community Health Survey. Healthcare utilization was assessed by a computer-assisted personal interview asking about visits to healthcare professionals in the last 12 months. Negative binomial regression was used to estimate the incidence rate ratios (IRR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) for the number of health professional visits between stroke survivors and people without a stroke. The regression models were adjusted for demographics, as well as for mobility, mood/anxiety disorder and cardiometabolic comorbid conditions. Results: The study sample included 35,759 respondents (948 stroke, 34,811 non-stroke) and equate to 12,396,641 (286,783 stroke; 12,109,858 non-stroke) when sampling weights were applied. Stroke survivors visited their family doctor the most, and stroke was significantly associated with more visits to most healthcare professionals [e.g., family doctor IRR 1.6 (CI 1.4–1.8); nurse IRR 3.0 (CI 1.8–4.8); physiotherapist IRR 1.8 (CI 1.1–1.9); psychologist IRR 4.0 (CI 1.1–5.7)] except the dental practitioner, which was less [IRR 0.7 (CI 0.6–0.9)]. Mood/anxiety condition, but not cardiometabolic comorbid condition increased the probability of visiting a family doctor or social worker/ counsellor among people with stroke. Conclusion: Stroke survivors visited healthcare professionals more often than people without stroke, and were approximately twice as likely to visit with those who manage problems that may arise after a stroke (e.g., family doctor, nurse, psychologist, physiotherapist). The effects of a stroke include mobility impairment and mood/ anxiety disorders. Therefore, adequate access to stroke-related healthcare services should be provided for stroke survivors, as this may improve functional outcome and reduce future healthcare costs.

Managerial leadership in Canadian NSOs: Values and perceptions of senior staff leaders and their staff members.

description: Leadership is a critical component of organizational effectiveness (Smith, Carson & Alexander, 1984), and often has the potential to impact on the success or failure of an enterprise. This study was designed to examine managerial leadership perceptions and values using an integrated theoretical approach in the context of Canadian National Sport Organizations (NSOs). The framework used, Yukl (1989), encompasses five primary components: leader traits, leader skills, leader behaviours, power bases for leadership, and transformational/charismatic leadership characteristics. Results indicated that there appeared to be a relatively high degree of agreement or harmony between senior staff leaders and staff members as to what "ideal" leadership ought to be in effective sport organizations. Some organizations showed a high degree of congruence between the leader "ideal" and the staff "actual" values, whereas others showed disagreement in responses. The same pattern of results was obtained when comparing "actual" and "ideal" leadership perceptions by staff members. Results also showed that congruence or incongruence in "actual" and "ideal" leadership values was generally consistent among staff members within each organization. This led the researcher to conclude that managerial leadership in these organizations appears to be contextual and organizationally specific. Additional findings were revealed from an analysis of ranking the data. Leader self-confidence, honesty, and willingness to assume responsibility appeared to be important for leader effectiveness. Conceptual and human skills were also ranked highly. The importance of a people-oriented style of leadership was emphasized. Knowledge appeared to be an important source of leader power, and the development and use of a vision appeared to be fundamental for managerial leadership effectiveness in sport organizations.

The character bill and migration rights
Creators: name: Betts, Katharine
Publisher: name: Swinburne
Year: 2024

description: For a decade and a half the executive and the judiciary in Australia have been engaged in a low-key struggle over who should have the final word on questions of immigration control. The Character Bill represents the latest move in this struggle. Its context and content illustrate the different values animating these two arms of government. The Bill aims to protect the community from non-citizens who may be of bad character, particularly people who may be criminals, when they apply for visas. It does this by placing the onus of proof on such people to establish that they are of good character, by limiting their capacity to seek review of character-based decisions to deny them visas (or to cancel visas already issued), and by restricting their access to information about them proved by law-enforcement agencies. In some cases non-citizens who are refused or deprived of visas on character grounds will not have access to natural justice. The Bill throws the conflict between the interests of the Australian community and the interests of some non-citizens into stark relief.

description: This article investigates the way politicians use social networking sites as effective communication platforms to discursively enhance authenticity, sincerity and (self --)connection to what can be defined as the “People” (followers/lurkers/net users). Within the framework of Social Media Critical Discourse Studies, and using tools c oming from Multimodal Discourse Analysis, the paper analyses the multi semiotic elements used by different political leaders (i.e. Alexandria Ocasio Cortez and Matteo Salvini), to connect with the “People,” and discusses the politainment product as a perso nalised way to skip the institutional mediation channels of politics.

Publisher: name: Université d'Ottawa / University of Ottawa

Subjects: subject: Engineering, Electronics and Electrical.

description: This thesis introduces techniques of analysis of electromagnetic wave propagation problems that can be used in the computation of near field using the Finite Element Method. The techniques are usable in situations involving three-dimensional structures as well as those exhibiting axial symmetry. For three-dimensional structures vector finite element formulation is employed for the computation of both magnetic and electric field vectors. For the axisymmetric configurations nodal finite element method has been implemented in modelling coaxially driven structures. The methods are used to model problem configurations involving structures of interest in the field of EMI/EMC and antennas, such as a dielectric ring resonator antenna, coaxial junctions and a cylindrical monopole antenna. The modelling is done in frequency domain and the results of the modelled structures are provided. A neural network approach to the solution of electromagnetic field problems is also introduced. The results compare well with the published experimental as well as theoretical results obtained on the same structures.
