description: Following a brief review of existing source coding techniques, negacyclic codes are defined and a joint source and channel coding scheme making use of these codes is introduced. The distortionless case and cases where distortion is allowed, are examined from the point of view of data compression. An orthogonal variation on the original scheme is also introduced. Discrete memoryless sources are assumed throughout, and the metric used in all cases is the Lee distance.

Equivalent Martingale measures and option pricing in jump-diffusion markets.

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

Subjects: subject: Engineering, Electronics and Electrical.

description: One of the key questions in financial mathematics is the choice of an appropriate model for the financial market. There are a number of models available, such as Geometrical Brownian motion and different types of Levy processes, that are not general enough to reflect all the characteristics of fluctuations in stock price but for which the parameters can be estimated with relative ease. There are more general semimartingale models for which parameter estimation and numerical calculation become very difficult questions. The goal of this thesis is to present a tractable model for which we can carry out computations, and it seems that by varying the parameters this model can be related to real market data. We will use the equivalent measure approach to obtain estimates of the price of European call options for our model. Since our market is incomplete, a consequence of the inclusion of jump processes in the model, we will choose the "best" equivalent martingale measure by applying various techniques and compare the results for different choices. We will also illustrate how this theory works on particular examples. We consider applications not only to the cases of continuous and Levy process markets but also to cases that reflect the main advantages of our jump diffusion model. Finally we numerically illustrate option pricing in our setting.

How entrepreneur's personality and network relationships help international new ventures to overcome constraints to rapid internationalization: the case of french firms
Creators: name: Favre-Bonte, Veronique
name: Cabrol, Mathieu
Publisher: name: Swinburne
Year: 2024

description: Firms that have both gone abroad from inception and have actively achieved a presence in lead industry markets are called international new ventures (INVs) or born-globals (BGs). The speed and international market presence lie in notably through an international network established by the entrepreneur and his or her team. Based on six in-depth case studies of young firms located in the Rhône-Alpes region of France, our study focuses on the founders' capabilities in detecting opportunities and in creating an international business network. The results clearly show that entrepreneurs build upon their skills and prior professional experience to mobilize international networks during the start-up phase in order to drive the firm's activities.
La paroisse communauté eucharistique et les réaménagements paroissiaux
Creators: name: Boulanger, Guy
Publisher: name: Université d'Ottawa / University of Ottawa
Year: 2009
Subjects: subject: Canon Law.

description: Il y a moins d'un demi-siècle, des auteurs ont développé le concept de communauté eucharistique pour définir la paroisse. L'apparition de cette institution et son évolution à travers les siècles confirment pourtant qu'elle a toujours été un lieu privilégié pour la célébration eucharistique dominicale. L'étude de la réflexion théologique récente concernant la paroisse démontre que la plupart des auteurs adhèrent à cette idée qu'elle a son centre dans la célébration eucharistique. Le magistère de l'Église utilise l'expression communauté eucharistique dans ses enseignements à son sujet. Le pape Jean-Paul II en même donné une définition. Le droit canonique ne l'utilise pas. Il montre de différentes façons, cependant, comment ce sacrement est fondamental en regard de la paroisse et de toute l'Église. Pour comprendre la réalite des réaménagements paroissiaux, la situation de l'Église du Québec est présentée. Après avoir été une Église forte et omniprésente dans la société, elle connait un déclin depuis plusieurs années. La diminution du nombre de prêtres et la moins grande implication des fidèles amènent les évêques à supprimer des paroisses ou à les intégrer dans de plus grandes entités. Les célébrations dominicales sans eucharistie existent depuis longtemps dans l'Église. Celles-ci sont présentées comme un moyen de conserver la vie et l'unité d'une paroisse et démontrent que celle-ci peut demeurer une communauté eucharistique même si elle ne peut célébrer ce sacrement tous les dimanches. L'ajout du c. 517, § 2 dans le Code de droit canonique de 1983 fait percevoir l'attachement de l'Église aux paroisses existantes alors qu'elle met en oeuvre des moyens exceptionnels pour les maintenir. Le manque de prêtres n'oblige donc pas à supprimer les paroisses. La communauté des fidèles doit être regardée en premier. Elle est plus importante que l'église paroissiale. Il faut évaluer quelle organisation paroissiale sera la meilleur pour former une communauté chrétienne, pour annoncer l'Évangile, pour favoriser l'appartenance à l'Église et permettre une présence de l'Église dans les milieux. La décision de conserver ou de supprimer une paroisse revient toujours à l'évêque qui doit être à l'écoute des fidèles pour qui cette institution est souvent leur premier lieu d'appartenance et d'engagement.

description: Background: In patients with neuromuscular disorder, only little data of myalgia frequency and characterization exists. To date, only a weak correlation between pain intensity and pressure pain threshold has been found, and it remains enigmatic whether high pain intensity levels are equivalent to high pain sensitivity levels in neuromuscular disorders. Methods: 30 sequential patients with suspected neuromuscular disorder and myalgia were analyzed with regard to myalgia characteristics and clinical findings, including symptoms of depression and anxiety and pain- threshold. Results: A neuromuscular disorder was diagnosed in 14/30 patients. Muscular pain fasciculation syndrome (MPFS) without evidence for myopathy or myositis was diagnosed in 10/30 patients and 6/30 patients were diagnosed with pure myalgia without evidence for a neuromuscular disorder (e.g., myopathy, myositis, MPFS, polymyalgia rheumatica). Highest median pain scores were found in patients with pure myalgia and polymyalgia rheumatica. Pressure pain threshold measurement showed a significant difference between patients and controls in the biceps brachii muscle. Conclusion: Only a weak correlation between pain intensity and pressure pain threshold has been suggested, which is concordant with our results. The hypothesis that high pain intensity levels are equivalent to high pain sensitivity levels was not demonstrated.
Liberte, diversite, co-autorite: Towards a late modern praxis of radical representative democratic corporealpolitiks
Creators: name: Steele, Jackie F
Publisher: name: Université d'Ottawa / University of Ottawa
Year: 2009
Subjects: subject: Political Science, General.

description: A critical reflection on the democratic relationship between corporeality, recognition, representation and democratic togetherness, this doctoral thesis follows in the tradition of practical philosophy (Iris Marion Young, Bonnie Honig, Philip Pettit, James Tully) to explore and deconstruct the contemporary challenges of late modern democracy in the face of demands by indigenous peoples, minority nations and various intra-national (nonterritorial) groups for effective enjoyment of democratic self-government. An underlying assumption of this thesis is that the emancipatory potential of liberal equality as a political ideal, although rhetorically onmipresent within Anglo-American democracies, has been exhausted and in fact redeployed in ways that diminish the capacity of minorized members of the political community to advocate for their liberty and to protect themselves against domination and oppression from within democratic institutions themselves. Cross-pollinating the insights of diversity feminism and republicanism, this thesis proposes alternative epistemological foundations of representative democracy to expose the political nature of various struggles of/over the interlocking conditions of late modern political corporealization. Specifically, it re-constructs a late modern convention of self-representation as co-authority that is grounded in an anti-essentialist and performative conception of political subjectivity (diversity feminism), and an agonic and institutional conception of political liberty and self-government (republican liberty). These alternative foundations (diversity, liberty, and co-authority) lay the nonnative groundwork for democratic institutional reforms aimed at the re-construction of a late modern praxis of radical representative democratic corporealpolitiks that presumes the necessity of heterogeneous institutional outlets of contestation that performatively politicize and democratize asymmetrical power relations between historically minorized/dominant corporealities. Positing the critical interdependence of personal freedom and collective freedom as realized democratically through free institutions and practices, the thesis advances a democratic defense of guaranteed thresholds of institutional self-representation for a broader diversity of late modern struggles of/over corporealization that liberalism has often excluded as apolitical or pre-political . Albeit in nonnative solidarity with inter-national struggles for democratic self-determination, it probes the specificities of intra-national minorities inflected by the corporealpolitiks of sex, gender, race, religion, ethnicity, mother tongue, and disability, given that their "right to exit" the political association is both epistemologically and practically absent.

description: Myc (avian myelocytomatosis viral oncogene homolog) represents one of the most sought after drug targets in cancer. Myc transcription factor is an essential regulator of cell growth, but in most cancers it is overexpressed and associated with treatment-resistance and lethal outcomes. Over 40 years of research and drug development efforts did not yield a clinically useful Myc inhibitor. Drugging the “undruggable” is problematic, as Myc inactivation may negatively impact its physiological functions. Moreover, Myc is a disordered protein that lacks effective binding pockets on its surface. It is well established that the Myc function is dependent on dimerization with its obligate partner, Max (Myc associated factor X), which together form a functional DNA-binding domain to activate genomic targets. Herein, we provide an overview of the knowledge accumulated to date on Myc regulation and function, its critical role in cancer, and summarize various strategies that are employed to tackle Myc-driven malignant transformation. We focus on important structure-function relationships of Myc with its interactome, elaborating structural determinants of Myc-Max dimer formation and DNA recognition exploited for therapeutic inhibition. Chronological development of small-molecule Myc-Max prototype inhibitors and corresponding binding sites are comprehensively reviewed and particular emphasis is placed on modern computational drug design methods. On the outlook, technological advancements may soon provide the so long-awaited Myc-Max clinical candidate.

description: Depuis la création de l'Union africaine en 2002, l'organisation est confrontée à de nombreux défis, notamment des conflits armés dans plusieurs régions du continent. Pour faire face à ces défis, l'organisation à intégré de nouvelles normes interventionnistes permettant d'assurer la paix. Malgré cela, l'Union africaine n'a pu stopper les violences au Darfour, région en proie à de graves violations des droits humains depuis 2003. Cette étude vise à expliquer la faiblesse des interventions de l'organisation en mettant un accent sur le manque de volonté politique, par l'entremise de l'analyse des intérêts nationaux en lien avec la situation au Darfour de deux pays membres influents de l'organisation, soit l'Afrique du Sud et le Nigéria. Il est soutenu que les intérêts nationaux des deux pays influencent négativement le processus décisionnel de l'organisation concernant la situation au Darfour car ces intérêts ne favorisent pas des interventions propices pour stopper les violences.

Detection and molecular characterization of Giardia and Cryptosporidium in Canadian dairy cattle
Creators: name: Coklin, Tatjana
Publisher: name: Université d'Ottawa / University of Ottawa
Year: 2007
Subjects: subject: Biology, Microbiology.
subject: Agriculture, Animal Pathology.

description: Giardia and Cryptosporidium are intestinal protozoan parasites that infect a wide range of host species, including humans. DNA sequencing of Giardia and Cryptosporidium isolates from human and animal sources has identified numerous species and genotypes, and has demonstrated that a number of Giardia and Cryptosporidium genotypes are shared between animals and humans. Therefore, livestock may act as a source of contamination of the food and water supply. The goal of this study was to optimize methods for the detection and molecular characterization of Giardia and Cryptosporidium. Achieving this objective involved the incorporation of immunomagnetic separation, as well as the evaluation of different methods, including microscopy, flow cytometry and polymerase chain reaction. A number of faecal samples from adult cattle and calves were collected from farms in Ontario and Prince Edward Island (PEI). Following DNA extractions from stool samples, a nested-PCR was used for Giardia to amplify a fragment of the 18S rRNA gene generating a 292-bp product. Nested-PCR protocol was also used for Cryptosporidium to amplify fragments of the heat-shock protein 70 (HSP-70) gene (ca. 325 bp). For Giardia, of 143 cattle samples analyzed by PCR, 32 (22.4 %) were positive. When IMS was incorporated into the methodology, 64 out of 143 (44.8 %) samples analyzed were positive for Giardia. For Cryptosporidum, out of 143 cattle faecal samples analyzed by the PCR method using the HSP-70 gene, 58 were positive (40.6 %), while using IMS, plus PCR, 60 samples were positive (42 %). Results from this study indicated that incorporation of IMS significantly improve the sensitivity of PCR for the detection of both Giardia (p<0.01) and Cryptosporidium (p=0.02). Among the other genes that were targeted, including the beta-giardin gene and glutamate dehydrogenase (GDH) for Giardia, and the Cryptosporidium oocyst wall protein (COWP) and 18S rRNA for Cryptosporidium, the 18S rRNA for Giardia , and HSP-70 for Cryptosporidium were found to be the "best genes". When different methods, including microscopy, flow cytometry and PCR-IMS were compared, the PCR method showed the highest sensitivity in detecting both parasites. Genotyping done by DNA sequencing showed that there was a high prevalence of zoonotic genotypes (Assemblage A for Giardia , and C. parvum bovine genotype for Cryptosporidium ) among the samples from both PEI and Ontario. In addition, a temporal study was done on calf samples from Ontario and showed that over time there was a decrease in Cryptosporidium infections, concomitant with an increase in Giardia infections.
Enhancing Cementitious Composites Through Waste Valorization: The Effect of Multiscale Recycled Materials on the Properties of Mortars

description: Extending the service life of concrete has become a key goal to maintain the development of built environments accommodating growing populations. An effective way to improve construction sustainability is to enhance the durability of cementitious composites by valorizing waste. This master's thesis evaluates the use of two alternative waste materials—recycled textile fibers (RTF) and nano-recovered carbon black (RCB)—in cementitious composites to enhance their durability and reduce the use of raw materials in construction. The document includes two studies highlighting the role of water in the performance of these cementitious composites. The first study examines how moisture content affects the degree to which RTF influences the thermal and mechanical properties of RTF-reinforced mortars. The performance of mortars reinforced with varying RTF contents (0%, 0.5%, 1%, and 2% by sample volume) were analyzed in both dry and saturated conditions. While RTF incorporation reduces the mortar’s strength, it mitigates crack propagation and prevents immediate collapse after failure, especially when saturated. Mortars with RTF concentrations up to 1% also have smaller strength differences between dry and saturated conditions than the reference mortars. Additionally, RTF incorporation also increases thermal efficiency in mortars by reducing thermal conductivity. Higher moisture content generally increases conductivity, but the conductivity of saturated RTF mortars is lower than saturated reference mortars. The second study evaluates RCB, a rubber byproduct, as an additive for cementitious composites and how water-to-cement (w/c) ratio influences its effectiveness. Mortars and pastes with 0.42 and 0.48 w/c were mixed with 0%, 0.5%, 1%, and 2% RCB content by weight of cement, and were tested to evaluate their hydration kinetics, mineralogical development, and strength development. Results showed that RCB performs best at lower w/c ratios, particularly in early-age strength development. This is supported by increased hydration products found within 3 mm of the surface of early age, low w/c RCB pastes. The study highlights the importance of giving special considerations to mix designs when using RCB, due to its hydrophobic and clustered nature. These studies contribute to the foundational knowledge on the role of waste materials in sustainable and durable construction.

description: Background: Fruit scent is increasingly recognized as an evolved signal whose function is to attract animal seed dispersers and facilitate plant reproduction. However, like all traits, fruit scent is likely to evolve in response to conflicting selective pressures and various constraints. Two major constraints are (i) phylogenetic constraints, in which traits are inherited from ancestors rather than adapted to current conditions and (ii) developmental constraints, if phenotypes are limited by the expression of other traits within the individual. We tested whether phylogenetic constraints play a role in fruit scent evolution by calculating the phylogenetic signal in ripe fruits of 98 species from three study sites. We then estimated the importance of developmental constraints by examining whether ripe fruits tend to emit compounds that are chemically similar to, and share biosynthetic pathways with, compounds emitted by conspecific unripe fruits from which they develop. Results: We show that closely related taxa are not more similar to each other than to very distinct taxa, thus indicating that fruit scent shows little phylogenetic signal. At the same time, although ripe and unripe fruits of the same species tend to emit different chemicals, they tend to employ chemicals originating from similar biosynthetic pathways, thus indicating that some developmental constraints determine ripe fruit scent. Conclusions: Our results highlight the complex landscape in which fruit scent has evolved. On one hand, fruit scent evolution is not limited by common ancestry. On the other hand, the range of chemicals that can be employed in ripe fruits is probably constrained by the needs of unripe fruits.
Analysis of the circular material use rate and the doubling target

description: This report analyses the progress made by the European Union (EU) in the circular material use rate (CMUR), supporting a better understanding of the observed status and trends. In addition, it provides a first simplified assessment of the prospects of the EU to move towards its ambition to double the CMUR within a decade, in the context of the Circular Economy Action Plan (CEAP) and the European Green Deal (EGD). Broadening the scope, the report looks also into unaccounted flows of recycled materials, a key driver of CMUR. It also complements the CMUR assessment by quantifying environmental impacts linked to material consumption, the main current driver of CMUR. This analysis helps to understand and interpret the observed status, trends and possible future developments for the CMUR, both on the total CMUR as well as on the CMUR for the four broad material categories as published by Eurostat. The insights are considered in the context of the CEAPâ€Ìs aim of "doubling the CMUR in the coming decade" at the EU level. The integration of the environmental impact from material uses brings in different perspectives into the analysis and interpretation of the CMUR. © European Topic Centre on Circular economy and resource use, 2023

description: This study identifies Late Quaternary glacial ice-flow direction in east-central Ellesmere Island, N.W.T., by the study of its composition and its relation to bedrock sources. The spatial distribution of five till types suggests a hypothesis which attempts to reconcile the Innuitian Ice Sheet model of Blake with the Franklin Ice Complex model of England. Glaciers draining from ice sheets in northern Ellesmere Island and Greenland filled Kane Basin and flowed southward toward Smith Sound. When this southward-flowing ice reached the bottleneck at Smith Sound (40 km wide), it overrode the adjacent landmasses of Pim Island and Cape Herschel and forced Buchanan Bay ice southward through the channel that is now occupied by Rice Strait. Southward-flowing ice continued to drain towards Baffin Bay, overriding the coastal areas of Nares Strait at Wade Point and Cape Isabella. The results presented here partially support the Innuitian ice sheet hypothesis, but do not negate the Franklin Ice Complex model. (Abstract shortened by UMI.)

description: Objective. There are currently no recommendations on the use of surveillance mammography for women who have undergone breast reconstruction following mastectomy. The objective of this study is to address the needs of this population of women with regards to the inclusion of ipsilateral surveillance mammography in their regular surveillance. Methods. A multimethod approach including (1) a systematic review, (2) a population based cohort study, and (3) an economic analysis was conducted to evaluate this issue. Results. The systematic review found only case reports and case series' addressing the role of surveillance mammography in women who have undergone breast reconstruction following mastectomy. These studies documented that local recurrence does occur in reconstructed breasts, and that these may be detected by surveillance mammography. In the cohort component of the study, variation in practice was found as 39% of women in the cohort underwent at least one surveillance mammogram of their reconstructed breast. Inference on the effectiveness of surveillance mammography of the reconstructed breast could not be made. The economic analysis found that in order to be cost effective, a reduction in metastatic risk of 3.34% following local recurrence detected by surveillance mammography was required. Conclusion. The findings from this thesis point to two recommendations. First, until stronger evidence becomes available, it is prudent to recommend that women with breast reconstruction undergo yearly bilateral surveillance mammography. Second, future research is required to review patient outcomes and provide the needed clinical evidence to support this practice.

description: Background: Lower leg fractures are one of the most common fractures in pediatric age. In general, treatment of lower leg fractures is predominantly non-operative, requiring clinical and radiological controls. Nevertheless, it can be observed that in recent years tibial shaft fractures have increasingly been treated surgically. The aim of the present study is to investigate treatment strategies in the context of different fracture types of the lower leg. Methods: In this retrospective chart review, we analyzed 168 children with a diaphyseal fracture of the lower leg admitted to a trauma center between 2005 and 2017. The fractures were classified according to the AO Pediatric Comprehensive Classification of Long Bone Fractures (AO-PCCF). Results: The frequency of fractures based on the AO-PCCF classification was as follows: Simple oblique fracture of the tibia (43.5%, n = 73), hereof 32 toddler's fractures, multifragmentary oblique fracture of the tibia in 14.3% (n = 24) and simple oblique fracture of both, tibia and fibula in 18 patients (10.7%). Most pediatric fractures were treated conservatively by cast (n = 125). Thirty-seven patients received an ECMES, whereas 3 patients were treated with an external fixator and also 3 fractures were stabilized by plate osteosynthesis. Conservatively treated patients were significantly younger (mean age 6.0) compared to patients treated with ECMES (mean age 10.2) or plate osteosynthesis (PO)/external fixator (EF) (mean age 11.3), even if toddler's fractures (mean age 2.0) are excluded (mean age 7.4). There was no difference in time to full weight-bearing, hospitalization of patients treated with ECMES compared to conservative therapy although ECMES-treated fractures show more instability. The consolidation time was significantly higher in ECMES treated patients compared to conservative therapy. Conclusion: Pediatric patients (≤4 years) with lower leg fractures most often showed simple oblique fractures of the tibia, half of them toddler's fractures, which were treated predominantly by conservative therapy. All in all, the consolidation time was longer in intramedullary nailing (ECMES) than in conservative therapy. Nevertheless, time to full weight bearing and duration of cast was the same in both groups, even though ECMES treated fractures show more instability.
