Congestion control enhancement over wireless networks
(2019)
In this thesis, we analyze the performance of wireless LAN networks subject to random loss. In this regard, we use a congestion control technique that has been introduced in a previous study, titled TCP Congestion Control ...
Development of graphite based nanomaterials for green chemistry applications
(2017)
Graphite is a valuable natural resource and useful carbon allotrope that has been explored for
various applications. Graphene is a two-dimensional (2D) transparent material, which is the
strongest, thinnest, and most ...
A Subspace of l2(X) without the approximation property
(2012-11-10)
The aim of the thesis is to provide support to the following conjecture, which would provide an isomorphic characterization of a Hilbert space in terms of the approximation property: an infinite dimensional Banach space X ...
A data warehouse-oriented methodology for qualitative semi-structured web information and social networking sites' user status search
(2019)
Finding most desired and useful information from the diverse information and content embedded
on webpages has become more challenging due to the rapid growth of websites and webpages,

Predicting cognitive and bhavioural responses to social situations: exploring the roles of anxiety sensitivity and perfectionism
(2019)
Despite their relevance to social anxiety (SA), few studies have examined the influence of
perfectionism and anxiety sensitivity on SA-maintaining factors such as anticipatory and post-
event processing (i.e., repetitive ...
Short circuit: Ontario's electrical utilities, Northern Ontario, and the metabolic rift, 1906-1998
(2017)
The theory of the metabolic rift offers historians and ecologists alike a new means of exploring the relationship between humans, nature, and capital. Based on the works of Karl Marx, the theory of the metabolic rift argues ...

(2016)
Jeanette Winterson’s infamous use of intertextuality and self-quotation, often dismissed
as arrogance, compels her readers to locate her works within an interconnected cycle. This thesis
argues that Winterson’s reference ...
Characterization of CdZnTe semiconductor for applications in advanced computed tomography
(2017)
Cadmium zinc telluride (CdZnTe) is currently the only single crystalline
semiconductor used in direct conversion gamma-cameras since CdZnTe can operate at
room temperature, unlike other materials (e.g., germanium) that ...
Structural and metamorphic control on the Borden gold deposit, Chapleau, Ontario

The Borden gold property is a multi-million-ounce deposit that is located 10
km east of Chapleau and 160 km southwest of Timmins. It occurs within the Wawa
Subprovince of the Archean Superior Province. What is atypical ...
Geology and geochemistry of ultramafic rocks in the Lake of the Woods Greenstone Belt
(2019)
The Archean komatiites of the Lake of the Woods greenstone belt, Kenora, Ontario
formed on the western extension of the Superior Province southern margin and have not
been studied using modern analytical methods. Although ...
