Optimization of Software Transactional Memory through Linear Regression and Decision Tree
(2015)Software Transactional Memory (STM) is a promising paradigm that facilitates programming for shared memory multiprocessors. In STM programs, synchronization of accesses to the shared memory locations is fully handled by ... -
Optimization of the process for sol-gel derived ZnO:Al thin films for transparent conducting oxide applications
(2021)Transparent and conducting Al-doped ZnO thin films with c-axis-preferred orientation were prepared on glass substrate via sol-gel route. The physical, optical and electrical properties were investigated to determine an ... -
Optimizing the sensitivity and specificity of genetic disease detection / by Travis E. Marion.
(2007)The molecular diagnosis of genetic disease is of great importance to the field of medicine and medical research. Though many rare inherited diseases have been described in the medical literature, the inheritance pattern ... -
Optimizing the transfer of patient care information among nurses and members of the multidisciplinary team in a regional hospital in Northwestern Ontario / by Karina Gagalo.
(2008)This study was designed to examine the current methods and content of shift report at a hospital in Northwestern Ontario. It also examined the potential of a computer-generated method of shift report to improve communication ... -
Optimum switch sizing for class DE amplifier
(2018)Recently, integrated class DE ampli fiers without matching networks have been proposed as a compact solution to drive a multi-element piezoelectric ultrasound transducer array for high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) ... -
Oral contraceptives and emotional memory
(2015)Previous research has suggested that oral contraceptive (OC) use is associated with altered memory for an emotional story. The current study further examined the extent to which OCs influence emotional memory by examining ... -
Ordered supramolecular oligothiophene structures on passivated silicon surfaces
(2014)The adsorption of brominated tetrathienoanthracene molecules (TBTTA) onto the Si(111) 3-Ag surface has been studied. The molecules were absorbed at room temperature and annealed up to 400C. One monolayer of Ag was used to ... -
Ordinary lives : extraordinary narratives, the transformation of character and theme in the fiction of Carol Shields
(1997)The primary objective o f this thesis is to examine the ways in which the ordinary lives that Carol Shields describes in her fiction are transformed into extraordinary narratives. I will use three of Shields’ novels as ... -
Ore mineralogy of Mattabi mine, Northwestern Ontario, Canada
(1990)The Mattabi Mine, a volcanogenic massive sulfide deposit located 60 km north of Ignace, Ontario, in the Archean Superior Province, produced 13.5 mt of ore with an average grade 7.5% Zn, 0.88% Cu, 0.77% Pb and 3.10 oz/t Ag ... -

Organic semiconductors containing multi-heteroatom rings
(2018)Oligomers of thiophene are ubiquitous in molecular materials research. Other ring systems, especially those lacking at least C2v symmetry are much less common. We investigated thiophene-thiazole, pyrrole-thiazole, ... -
An ostensible exercise in modernity: law, religious intervention, and social science in the case of Bedford vs. Canada
(2014-01-22)Drawing on Adele Clarke’s (2005) method of situational analysis as well insights from the social construction of social problems approach (Spector and Kitsuse 1977; Best 2008), symbolic interactionism (Prus 1999) and ... -
The outcomes and effectiveness of two self-disclosure techniques
(1974)It has been shown that there is a dyadic effect in regard to self-disclosure. This dyadic effect refers to the fact that the more one says about one's self the more another person is likely to say about their self. Two ... -
Outdoor play-based number sense and numeration experiences for primary levelled students
(2019)Classroom educators have a great deal of responsibility beyond the generally understood career description of delivering lessons. As educators are creating well thought out lessons that are differentiated to meet the ... -
Outplanting performance of Pinus strobus, Pinus resinosa, Pinus banksiana, and Picea glauca from different nurseries, and with different container types within Algonquin Park
(2020)Understanding planting performance of seedlings is integral to the forest industry of Canada. Many factors are involved in the performance of the seedlings once planted in the field. Factors include site conditions, planter ... -
Outward bound Giwaykiwin: wilderness-based Indigenous education
(2008)This study takes a critical approach to Outward Bound Canada's Giwaykiwin program through a lens of decolonizing Indigenous education. The worldwide organization of Outward Bound, and assumptions about the universal ... -
An overview and update of low-impact developments (LIDS) in Thunder Bay
(2023)Climate change is accelerating at a rapid pace across the globe and with this, flooding in urban environments is also increasing. This means that there is and will be an increasing need for alternative methods of stormwater ... -
Overweight women who join weight reducing clubs and the internal-external personality trait
(1975)The purpose of the present study was to investigate the relationship between attempts made by overweight women to lose weight and the internal-external (I-E) personality dimension. It was hypothesized that: 1) Overweight ... -
The ovulatory shift: proceptive and receptive mating behaviours across the menstrual cycle
(2015-08-05)Research has suggested an ovulatory shift whereby women become more oriented towards short-term mating around the time of ovulation. Other research suggests that women’s cyclical shifts depend on their sociosexuality and ...
