Modeling boreal forest response to climate variability in central Canada
Creators: name: Stratton, Tana Lowen

Year: 2009
Subjects: subject: Climate Change.
subject: Agriculture, Forestry and Wildlife.

description: This study examines the importance of short-term climate variability when simulating forest succession using ecological process models. A version of the FORSKA2 forest gap model was modified for use with daily climate data and applied along a transect of sites crossing the boreal region in central Canada, including the aspen-parkland and forest-tundra ecotones where impacts of climatic change on forest ecosystems could be particularly significant. The model's sensitivity to forcing with daily climate observations compared to monthly mean and long term averages of monthly mean climate data was investigated. Inclusion of daily climate (minimum and maximum temperature and total precipitation) improved the simulations of key characteristics of present-day forest along the transect, and was particularly important at the ecotones. The results demonstrate that changes in variability associated with future change in mean climate are likely to be important when trying to predict boreal forest responses to projected future climate change. Ideally, the use of projected daily climate data or data based on the statistical characteristics of daily climate is highly recommended for future impact studies. A number of approaches to further improve the functioning of the model are also presented.

Area based beaconless broadcasting in ad hoc and sensor networks

Subjects: subject: Computer Science.

description: We consider the broadcasting problem in ad hoc and sensor networks where no 'Hello' messages are used in order to preserve power and bandwidth. We propose five Area based Beaconless Broadcasting Algorithms (ABBAs). In 2D, each node calculates the ratio P of its perimeter along the circle of transmission radius, which is covered by the transmissions of the same packet. The node then sets or updates its timeout proportionally to P. We also consider an alternative random timeout function. If the perimeter becomes fully covered, the node cancels the retransmission; otherwise, it retransmits. We also describe four 3D ABBAs, these protocols are based on covering three projections, covering particular points on intersection circles, covering intersection points of three spheres, and covering intersection circles. Three ABBAs are the first reliable broadcasting protocols, other than blind flooding. 2D ABBA is compared with two beaconless protocols, OFP and Geoflood, showing its overall superiority.

description: The purpose of the current research endeavour was to evaluate if the learning of English as a Foreign Language (EFL) could constitute an effective non-pharmacological intervention for older adults diagnosed with Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI). Specifically, the focus was on the assessment of the impact of EFL learning on a variety of cognitive and psychological functions. To this aim, a total sample of 241 Greek older adults was recruited from the day care units for patients with dementia of the Greek Association of Alzheimer’s Disease and Related Disorders, in Thessaloniki, Greece. An experimental research design was adopted and two groups were formulated. The intervention group comprised 98 individuals who attended an18-month EFL course and either had no prior knowledge of English or had attended some lessons decades before. The control group included 143 individuals who did not attend any cognitive stimulation programme within the premises of the day care units. A battery of neuropsychological tests, assessing general cognitive functioning, attention, verbal learning, memory, visuo-perceptual ability, executive function, and depression, was administered by the psychologists of the day care units to all of the participants. Neuropsychological data for the intervention group were collected at three time-points (i.e. pre-, mid-, and post-intervention), while neuropsychological data for the control group were collected at two time-points (i.e. pre- and post-research). Hypothesis testing revealed statistically significant differences both within the intervention group and between the intervention and control group across the evaluation time-points.

description: Магический реализм, возникший в середине XX века как художественный метод, изначально ассоциировался с латиноамериканской литературой, где он стал инструментом осмысления постколониальной идентичности, социальных противоречий и культурного синкретизма. Однако к началу XXI века его эстетические принципы претерпели значительную трансформацию, выйдя за географические и культурные границы. Современная литература Латинской Америки и Европы активно переосмысляет традиции магического реализма, адаптируя их к вызовам глобализации, цифровой эпохи и экологического кризиса.
Localized criteria for detection of critical nodes and links and k-connectivity in ad hoc networks
Creators: name: Jorgic, Milenko
Publisher: name: Université d'Ottawa / University of Ottawa
Year: 2007
Subjects: subject: Computer Science.

description: Ad hoc network normally has critical connectivity properties before partitioning. The timely recognition is important in order to perform some data or service replication. Several existing centralized or globalized algorithms declare an edge or a node as critical if their removal will separate the network into several components. We introduce several localized definitions of critical nodes and critical links, using topological or positional information. A node is critical if the subgraph of p-neighbours of node (without the node itself) is disconnected. We propose three definitions of critical links, based on verifying common p-hop neighbours, loop length, and critical status of link endpoints, respectively. The experiments with random unit graph model of ad hoc networks show high correspondence of local and global decisions. Existing algorithms for testing k-connectivity are centralized. In this thesis, we introduce localized criteria for testing k-connectivity. In the first proposed local neighbor detection (LND) criterion, each node verifies whether or not itself and each of its p-hop neighbors have at least k neighbors. In the second local critical node detection (LCND) protocol, it also tests if the subgraph of its p-hop neighbours of a given node is k-connected. The third local subgraph connectivity detection (LSCD) protocol is based on communications between neighboring nodes to exchange the local decisions starting from k=1. All nodes declare themselves locally 1-connected. For k=2,3,..., iteratively, local decisions are propagated to p-hop neighbors. If node A is (k-1)-connected, all its p-hop neighbors are (k-1)-connected, and the graph consisting of p-hop neighbors of A (excluding A) is (k-1)-connected, then node A declares its neighborhood as k-connected. The experiments are carried with two ways of uniform generation of connected unit disk graphs. They show low percentage of false 'alarms', ability to locate critical areas in k-disconnected networks, and increased accuracy with increased local knowledge.

Το corpus της μελέτης αποτελείται από το ψηφιακό αρχειακό υλικό με τις αγορεύσεις των βουλευτών, όπως αυτές αποτυπώνονται στα Πρακτικά των συνεδριάσεων της Βουλής των Ελλήνων, (πρβλ. https://www.hellenicparliament.gr/Praktika/Synedriaseis-Olomeleias). Από την ανάλυση του υλικού προκύπτει ότι η γλώσσα του χορού εμφανίζεται μέσα από στερεοτυπικό ιδιόλεκτο και φρασεολογία. Συμπεραίνεται ότι η χρήση στερεοτύπων και μεταφορών εξυπηρετεί προσωπικές και ιδεολογικές αντιπαραθέσεις, κυρίως προκειμένου να ανεβούν οι τόνοι στη Βουλή των Ελλήνων. Η ορολογία του χορού χρησιμοποιείται σχεδόν αποκλειστικά για την περιγραφή αρνητικών καταστάσεων της πολιτικής αντιπαράθεσης ενώ οι χοροί, στη λεκτική τους εκδοχή, αποτελούν συνώνυμο έλλειψης σοβαρότητας και εξυπηρετούν περισσότερο το στοιχείο διακωμώδησης της άσκησης πολιτικής και καταγγέλλουν περιπτώσεις διαφθοράς. Στο πλαίσιο της γενικότερης θέσης του νεοελληνικού πολιτισμού ανάμεσα στη Δύση και στην Ανατολή, το ταγκό και οι πιρουέτες προτιμώνται για τα ζητήματα που αφορούν τις σχέσεις της Ελλάδας με τη Δύση ενώ το ζεϊμπέκικο και ο τσάμικος υπογραμμίζουν τις παραδοσιακές σχέσεις των Ελλήνων με την Ανατολή και τις εθνικές παραδόσεις.

Surface modifying macromolecules for biomaterials.
Creators: name: Tang, Yi-Wen.
Publisher: name: Université d'Ottawa / University of Ottawa
Year: 1995
Subjects: subject: Engineering, Biomedical.

description: In this thesis, new biomaterials were developed by incorporating surface modifying macromolecules (SMMs) that enriched the surface with a fluoro-chemistry. The SMMs contained a linear polyurethane as the prepolymer component and the prepolymer was end-capped by a fluorinated alcohol. The SMM materials and the blend of these SMMs with the polyester-urea-urethane base polymer were characterized with respect to their bulk and the surface properties, response to their biodegradation in the presence of enzyme and their fibrinogen adsorption characteristics. The SMMs were found to have selectively migrated to the surface of the polymer mixtures as expected. The bulk thermal (e.g. glass transition temperature) were found to be unaltered for polyurethane samples containing up to 5% SMM. The "fluorine tail" of the SMMs allowed the substrate surfaces to achieve very low surface wettability. Contact angle values (water/air) for the new materials were as high as $116\sp\circ,$ which is higher than that of $\rm Teflon\sp{R}.$ Measurements of fibrinogen adsorption, an indication of the tendency of surfaces to stimulate thrombosis, showed that the SMM blended materials significantly reduced fibrinogen adsorption. A biodegradation test of a polyether-urea-urethane containing one of the SMMs optimized for the polyester-urea-urethane showed that the SMM was unable to inhibit degradation of the polyether-urea-urethane. This suggested that the SMM was not universally effective and that the microstructure of, and the interaction between, SMMs and the base polymer were also important factors to be considered during the investigations of the stability of polyurethanes.

description: “Ненатяжная” методика паховой герниоаллопластики по Lichtenstein явила ряд очевидных преимуществ перед традиционными видами паховых грыжепластик. Операция занимает немного времени, проста в исполнении и вполне приемлема по себестоимости. Однако, нередко паховая связка настолько бывает разволокненной, что навряд ли может быть надежным местом для фиксации протеза. Возникает необходимость в его дополнительной фиксации. Использование для этого связки Cooper, как рекомендуют многие авторы, лишь частично решает проблему, а методики Козлова с формированием искусственной паховой связки и Fletching с использованием «трехслойной сетки» сложны в техническом отношении.

description: Cette thèse s'intéresse à l'impact du capital social sur la santé des Canadiens. Elle vise à vérifier si la santé est influencée par une multitude de déterminants sociaux, dont le capital social. Pour ce faire, elle se base sur une méthodologie quantitative qui utilise des données individuelles tirées de l'Enquête nationale sur la santé de la population de 1996--1997, comprenant un échantillon de 82 000 répondants. Dans cette recherche, la santé est mesurée à partir de l'auto-évaluation de l'état de santé des gens. Le capital social est mesuré à partir de l'indice de soutien social perçu. En conclusion, cette thèse permet d'observer un lien entre le capital social, mesure à partir du soutien social, et la perception de la santé, bien que celui-ci soit plutôt faible. Elle permet également de voir que les déterminants sociaux de la santé agissent de façon plurivoque et reliée sur la santé.
A data mining tool for predicting student withdrawal

Publisher: name: Swinburne
Year: 2024

description: The research aims to develop a data mining tool for predicting student withdrawal based on student data available within Swinburne University. The following five research questions were answered during the research: (i) Which students are most likely to withdraw from their courses? (ii) What are the appropriate variables for predicting student course withdrawal? (iii) What is the most robust and easy-to-understand data mining model for predicting student withdrawal? (iv) What is the best approach to implement the data mining model for ease of use and understanding of the model by non-expert users? (v) How to make the data mining model appropriate and relevant in the long term? Models for predicting student withdrawal have been developed: the Initial and the Final Models. The Initial Model was applied to undergraduate and postgraduate students, who have studied at university at least for one semester (continuing students). However, a business evaluation of the model has shifted focus from all continuing students to commencing and continuing undergraduate students. That is why Final Models were developed for predicting commencing and continuing undergraduate student withdrawal. Additionally, after a business evaluation, student data from the online student management system (Blackboard Analytics) became available for use in the Final Models.
Production and rheological studies of microalgal biopolymer from lactose using a green alga strain
Creators: name: Wu, Nan
Publisher: name: Université d'Ottawa / University of Ottawa
Year: 2009
Subjects: subject: Engineering, Chemical.

description: It was discovered that a green alga strain had the capacity of producing up to 5 g/l high viscosity biopolymers from lactose under mixotrophic cultivation conditions. The molecular weight of the polymer was determined to be around 505,000 daltons. The polymers were shown to have similar rheological characteristics as xanthan gum, a commercial bacterial polysaccharides, which has found numerous applications in a large variety of different fields. The ability of this strain to utilize lactose for biopolymer production promises the potential of valuable biopolymer production from cheese whey, a waste liquor stream of the cheese industry that contains approximately 50 g/1 lactose. Using Plackett-Burnman experiment design and statistical analysis, it was determined that the major parameters affecting biopolymer production were the concentrations of sodium nitrate and lactose and temperature as well. Further studies on polymer characterizations, production optimization, and applications are under way.
Les enjeux théoriques et pratiques de l'écriture transgénérique dans certaines oeuvres métaféministes

Subjects: subject: Literature, Canadian (French).

description: La littérature postmoderne est caractérisée notamment par l'écriture transgénérique définie comme l'interpénétration de plusieurs genres à l'intérieur d'un maître texte. Plusieurs écrivaines ont privilégié ce style d'écriture. Mon choix s'est arrêté sur des oeuvres transgénériques de Nicole Brossard, de France Daigle, d'Assia Djebar, de Marie Uguay et de Mélanie Gelinas. Ces oeuvres sont également métaféministes dans la mesure où elles dénoncent les métarécits patriarcaux. Le métarécit est un discours de légitimation des " règles du jeu1 " et " des institutions qui régissent le lien sociale 2 ". Ainsi, en " légitimant le savoir par un métarécit, qui implique une philosophie de l'histoire, on est amené à se questionner sur la validité des institutions qui régissent le lien social3 ". Ma thèse met en relief les stratégies formelles et sémantiques de ces écrivaines qui ont permis de se défaire de ces métarécits et de proposer leur propre réalite du monde. 1Jean-François Lyotard, La Condition postmoderne, Paris, Minuit, 1979, p. 7. 2Ibid. 3Ibid.

description: Combination of the potassium salt of the triazenide anion (R)NNN(R) - with CrCl2(THF)2 leads to the formation of dimeric complexes {Cr[mu,eta,eta'-bis-1,3-(2',5'-diisopropylphenyl) triazenide]2}2(2.1), [Cr(mu,eta,eta')-1,3-diphenyltriazenide) 2]2 (2.2), {Cr[mu,eta,eta')-bis-1,3-(2'-methoxyphenyl)triazenide] 2}2 (2.3) which are paddlewheel type structures featuring bridging triazenide anions. These complexes led to very low activity for the polymerization and oligomerization of ethylene upon activation with known activators MAO, TIBAO. Combination of the potassium salt of the triazenide anion with CrCl 3(THF)3 leads to the formation of mononuclear complexes [bis-1,3-(2',5'-diisopropylphenyl) triazenide]Cr(THF)2Cl2 (2.5) and [bis-1,3-(2'-methoxyphenyl) triazenide]Cr(THF)2Cl2 (2.6). These complexes showed high activity for the non-selective oligomerization of ethylene, fitting a Schulz-Flory distribution. Reduction of these complexes lead to the dinuclear CrII species {[bis-1,3-(2',5'-diisopropylphenyl)triazenide]Cr(THF)(muCl)} 2(2.7), but did not lead to the target Cr1 complexes as ligand salts were isolated upon further reduction. One pot reaction of ZrCl4 with 2 equivalents of mono-pyrrole based ligands and 4 equivalents of AlR3 leads to the formation of zirconocene type structures (eta)5[2,5-Me2C 4H2N{AlCl2Et}]2ZrCl2 ( 3.1), (eta5[2,5-Me2C4H 2N{AlClMe2}])2ZrClMe (3.2), (eta 5[2,5-Me2C4H2N{AlClMe2}]) 2ZrCl2 (3.3), (eta5[C 4H4N{AlClMe2}])2ZrMe2 ( 3.4). These ZrIV complexes produced lower than expected activity for polymerization of ethylene when activated by MAO, as compared to their Cp analogues. When dipyrrole ligands were combined with ZrCl4 and 4 equivalents of AlR3 in one pot, formation of ZrIII compounds were observed. Octameric ([{Ph2C(C4H3N) 2}Zr2]4(mu-Cl)16) [mu-Cl] 2AlCl2)4 (3.5) provides a Zr III complex unlike any other observed in literature. Reduction was performed from Al(Me)3 in this case, however coordination of Al in the structure is unlike the previous 3.1,3.2,3.3,3.4. The formation of ([AlEtCl{mu-Cl}2][{C4H 4N}2AlClEt]Zr2(mu-Cl)4)2 · 4 (C7H8) (3.7) has many interesting features. The Zr-Zr distance of 3.045(2)A is the shortest yet observed for Zr. Additionally, the dipyrrole starting material was cleaved during the reaction to basic pyrrole, which suggests insight into the mechanism of formation of 3.5 and suggests the possibility of in situ Zr II formation.

description: On 15 August 1990 the Vatican issued Pope John Paul's Apostolic constitution Ex corde Ecclesiae (From the Heart of the Church) concerning Catholic higher education. Promulgated as law, the document deal firstly with the Catholic identity and mission of the college or university, and secondly with the general norms for all institutes of higher studies. The document also reflects and reaffirms the mandatum of c. 812. This study looks at the mandatum and how the norms of Ex corde Ecclesiae are implemented at a Catholic college in the United States that is sponsored by a religious institute by attempting to place the discussion in the context of the American culture. Beginning with a canonical look at the defining moment when one becomes a Catholic and an historical examination of the university system and the Catholic Church, this study shows the intimate relation that religious institutes have had with higher education. In the United States there are over 230 Catholic colleges and universities and other such institutions of higher studies, most of which are canonically and civilly connected to a religious institute. The question is what role does the sponsoring religious institute have in the canonical compliance of their separately incorporated apostolate in the implementation of the norms of Ex corde Ecclesiae? Discussed in this work are the canonical obligations and rights of the diocesan bishop, the religious institute, the college (administrators and trustees) and the professors of theological disciplines. This study also looks at some of the issues of concern that were raised by theologians, canonists, colleges and universities, religious institutes and bishops relating to the implementation of Ex corde Ecclesiae. It took ten years for the bishops of the United States to receive the Vatican recognitio for "The Application of Ex corde Ecclesiae for the United States" to be used in the implementation of Ex corde Ecclesiae for American Catholic colleges and universities. On 3 May 2001 the Application became particular law for the United States. St. Norbert College, a Norbertine sponsored college in De Pere, Wisconsin, USA, is used as the case study for this work.

description: Life-expectancy and Life-years lost are frequently used and analyzed indices of survival. Life tables and Markov models are two exact approaches to calculate these indices; however cumbersome calculation limits their usage in real situations. Some simple approximation approaches have therefore been developed since a convenient and accurate approximation is critical both to develop a treatment plan of a patient by physicians and to assess health policies by health policy makers. These approximation approaches include the DEALE (Declining Exponential Approximation of Life Expectancy), new DEALEs, the IPH method (A method developed at Institute of Population Health, University of Ottawa) and the Keyfitz approach. A new approach has been developed to achieve better accuracy and maintain ease of application by extending the Keyfitz approach. To make the new approach less dependent on age-stratified tabulations, a convenient formula for the EME (Established market economics) region is developed. Its accuracy, robustness, and ease of application are demonstrated.

description: The reason that led us to undertake this translation kind research on the history of the use of the Greek expression “Χρόνια Πολλά” and its diffusion in other Balkan languages was a discussion that took place in an academic platform [on the Greek origin and the exclusive use of it in Greek]. We explain here our position that differs regarding its uniqueness of use in Greek language.

МАГИЧЕСКИЙ РЕАЛИЗМ КАК СРЕДСТВО ОТРАЖЕНИЯ СОЦИАЛЬНО-ПОЛИТИЧЕСКИХ РЕАЛИЙ В СОВРЕМЕННОЙ ЛИТЕРАТУРЕ
Creators: name: Каримов, Зиёахмад
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2025

description: Магический реализм, возникший как литературный феномен в середине XX века, стал мощным инструментом для осмысления сложных социально-политических контекстов. В данной статье исследуется, как авторы используют магико-реалистические элементы для критики диктатур, постколониальных травм, социального неравенства и культурной идентичности. На примере произведений Габриэля Гарсиа Маркеса, Салмана Рушди, Исабель Альенде и современных авторов анализируется взаимодействие фантастического и реального. Статья демонстрирует, что магический реализм не только обнажает скрытые конфликты, но и предлагает альтернативные нарративы для их преодоления.
Screening and evaluation of natural compounds for therapeutic application in Alzheimer's disease

description: Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is one of the most common causes of dementia, which is affecting more than 26 million people, globally. It is an irreversible, progressive brain disease that slowly destroys cognitive memory. The major pathophysiology of Alzheimer’s disease is deposition of senile plaques (Amyloid Plaques) and neurofibrillary tangles (NFTs) in the brain causing neuronal damage, ultimately leading to the loss of cognitive function and memory loss. Currently, there are no drugs available in the market neither for complete cure nor for the symptomatic relief of Alzheimer’s disease. Currently available drugs can prolong the onset of the disease or delay the disease progression. Several synthetic drugs failed during their development as treatment due to lack of efficacy and/or toxicity. The possible alternative would be to considering the compounds from natural sources which are used for human therapeutic applications from time immemorial and are found to be safe for human consumptions. In the current study, natural molecules were screened against a validated drug target and evaluated for potential therapeutic efficacy for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease. The research work proposed a multipotent and efficacious neuroprotective molecule, which can be further considered for the development as a drug for the treatment/management of Alzheimer's disease.

description: Introduction A bidirectional relationship exists between diabetes and periodontal disease. To determine the perceived need for oral healthcare among adults with diabetes when they encounter oral health problem(s) in Malaysia. Objective Diabetes increases the likelihood of contracting periodontal disease while periodontal disease exacerbates hyperglycaemia. According to the National Oral Health Survey of Adults 2010, 94% of adults in Malaysia had periodontal disease. Methodology Data of adults aged 18 years and over from a nationwide cross-sectional household survey (National Health and Morbidity Survey 2019) were analysed using complex sample descriptive statistics. The survey used a two-stage stratified cluster sampling. Respondents in non-institutional living quarters in Malaysia were interviewed face-to-face. Results A total of 16,688 respondents were successfully interviewed. Among all the respondents interviewed, 1,426 (8.6%) respondents reported having diabetes. Within two weeks prior to the survey, 12.3% reported oral health problem(s) but only 30.3% among them sought care from a healthcare practitioner. Among those who did not seek care from a healthcare practitioner, 43.5% did not perceive the need to seek care from a healthcare. Main reasons for not seeking care from a healthcare practitioner is depicted in Figure 2. Within two weeks prior to the survey, 12.3% reported oral health problem(s) but only 30.3% among them sought care from a healthcare practitioner. Among those who did not seek care from a healthcare practitioner, 43.5% did not perceive the need to seek care from a healthcare practitioner (Figure 1). Discussion / Conclusion Perception on the need for oral healthcare among those with diabetes was low in Malaysia. Management of diabetes in periodontal patients helps improve periodontal condition while management of periodontal disease helps prevent morbidity and mortality associated with diabetes. Six monthly oral heathcare is recommended for diabetics patients; more frequent if they have periodontal disease. The American Diabetes Association (ADA) recommends oral health examination during patient’s initial health check-up. Collaboration among general and dental healthcare practitioners in addressing diabetes and oral health is crucial to ensure diabetic patients receive holistic care. There is a need to educate the public on the bidirectional relationship between diabetes and periodontal diseases so that they could seek and receive appropriate care from healthcare practitioners.
Perceptions of the use of victim impact statements in Canada: A survey of Crown Counsel in Ontario
Creators: name: Cole, Mihael Ami
Publisher: name: Université d'Ottawa / University of Ottawa
Year: 2003
Subjects: subject: Law.
subject: Sociology, Criminology and Penology.

description: This thesis examines the use of victim impact statements (VIS) in Canada by means of a questionnaire completed by Crown Attorneys in the province of Ontario. The thesis begins with a brief historical overview of the emergence of this sentencing tool, followed by a detailed examination of the current victim impact statement provisions in the Criminal Code . The paper then moves towards identifying areas of consensus in the research literature surrounding victim impact statements (such as the infrequency of their use and the degree of public and judicial support for them). The thesis then identifies areas of conflict surrounding victim impact statements (such as whether they are worth the time and expense to the criminal justice system and the victim, and what ways they might infringe on the rights of the offender). It then outlines the methodology used in the construction of the survey and describes the sample of Crown Counsel participating in this study. The thesis then summarizes the results of the questionnaire. (Abstract shortened by UMI.)
Plotinus on the soul as substance and act: A study on the possibility of a scientific knowledge of sensible reality.
Creators: name: Yhap, Jennifer L.
Publisher: name: Université d'Ottawa / University of Ottawa
Year: 1998
Subjects: subject: Philosophy.

description: The thesis argues for the admission of the scientific knowledge of the sensible reality in the Plotinian philosophy. As such, the thesis is a study in the metaphysics of knowledge. The thesis is constructed in three parts. The first part is dialectical in nature; that is, it is a reasoning which starts from a given, commonly held position in order to elucidate the relative strengths and weaknesses thereof. The point of departure is the test of Enneads V,1 (10),3 on the acts and passions of Soul. The second part is demonstrative in nature; that is, it is a reasoning which is meant to be conclusive of the thesis based upon rational and exegetical deductions. This part of the thesis is based on a study of the test of Enneads III,5 (50). Proceeding, the thesis identifies the mythological figure of Divine Aphrodite with Divine Soul and studies the nature of a priori knowledge. Following, the thesis identifies the mythological figure of Worldly Aphrodite with Mixed Soul and studies the nature of a posteriori knowledge. This section of the thesis includes five steps. The first step introduces the notions of knowledge of the particular and knowledge of the universal common to Aristotle and Neoplatonism. The second step situates the nature of reason to be potential within the historical context of Alexander of Aphrodisias, an Aristotelian well known to Plotinus. The third step posits the difference between potential or implicit knowledge and actual or explicit knowledge consequent to the application of the universal to the particular. The fourth step concerns the teaching on genus and species. Finally the fifth step concerns the subsumptive knowledge of Mixed Soul and the role of the abstract universal in Plotinian philosophy. The third part is apologetic in nature; that is, a defence of the thesis against forseeable objections. A first objection concerns the status of opinative knowledge in the Plotinian philosophy. The second objection concerns the Soul's knowledge in contradistinction to Intellect's knowledge.
La protection offerte au Canada par la Loi sur la concurrence en présence d'activités extraterritoriales.
Creators: name: Dussault, Madeleine.
Publisher: name: Université d'Ottawa / University of Ottawa
Year: 1993
Subjects: subject: Law.

description: Le but du memoire est d'identifier dans quelle mesure la Loi sur la concurrence$\sp1$ du Canada (ci-apres la Loi) peut reprimer certaines conduites et reconnai tre la responsabilite d'une entreprise etrangere lorsque la conduite, initiee hors du Canada, est completee au Canada ou lorsqu'elle y a des effets negatifs sur la concurrence. Malgre le fait que certaines references seront faites au droit de la concurrence, pout les fins de la presente discussion, il ne sera question que du regime prevu par la Loi sur la concurrence. Il ne sera pas question des lois provinciales portant sur la concurrence deloyale, de recours prives intentes aux termes de l'article 36 de la Loi ou en vertu du droit civil delictuel, ou de publicite contraire aux lois provinciales portant sur la protection du consommateur. Deja, de nombreux conflits sont survenus en droit de la concurrence face a l'application agressive des lois antitrust par les gouvernements et tribunaux americains. Cette approche a fait l'objet de vives critiques de la part des gouvernements et tribunaux etrangers, dont le Canada. Cette etude revele que la signification des procedures introductives d'instances intentees en vertu de partie VI de la Loi ne peut se faire que sur le territoire canadien. La signification des procedures introductives d'instances devant le Tribunal de la concurrence pourrait se faire sur le territoire d'un autre Etat. On conclut que malgre le fait que les dispositions de la Loi peuvent avoir une application large engageant la responsabilite des personnes hors du Canada au cas de contraventions, la mise en application de la Loi ne peut se faire sur le territoire canadien.
