Design, development and usability evaluation of social system interface and development of computational model
(2021)
In recent times, methods of computational intelligence (CI) that aim to solve real-life problems are developed by computer science researchers in collaboration with domain experts.
There has also been an increased emphasis ...
Design of a beam-steerable microstrip line based leaky wave antenna using uniaxial field programmable microwave substrate (FPMS)
(2021)
The ever-growing wireless technologies of today are pushing the limits of the state-of-the-art radio
frequency (RF) components design. One special requirement which is widely needed in modern
applications is for the RF ...
The witch : a pedagogy of immanence
(2021)
This thesis examines three key texts which serve as a means of exploring the process of
reclamation, of delving into a process of reconstruction of Indigenous identity but also of social
identity within a philosophical ...
Enhanced hydrolysis of polyethylene terephthalate (PET) plastics by ozone and ultrasound pretreatment
(2021)
The rapidly accumulating post-consumer polyethylene terephthalate (PET) plastics
pose a great threat to our environment as they constitute one of the most used products in
our day-to-day life. As a result, degradation ...
Multi-advisor deep reinforcement learning for smart home energy control
(2021)
Effective automated smart home control is essential for smart-grid enabled approaches to demand response, named in the literature as automated demand response. At it’s heart, this is a multi-objective
adaptive control ...
Medical workflow design and planning using Node-Red data fusion
(2021)
The space of clinical planning requires a complex arrangement of information, often not
capable of being captured in a singular dataset. As a result, data fusion techniques can be
used to combine multiple data sources ...
Macrobotanical and zooarchaeological examination of the macgillivray site (DbJm-3): a woodland period habitation in Northwestern Ontario
(2021)
The Macgillivray site (DbJm-3) is located on an island in Whitefish Lake, approximately 50 km
southwest of Thunder Bay, Ontario in the central Canadian Boreal Forest ecozone. Indigenous people
have lived in this area for ...
Recovering the proteome of archived biomedical specimens
(2021)
While several proteomic studies have undertaken the challenge of analyzing formalin fixed
paraffin embedded (FFPE) tissue, few have developed optimized protocols for studying
FFPE human brain tissue. This study will ...
Understanding the extent of polypharmacy and its impact on outcomes among persons with cancer and multimorbidity
(2021)
Cancer often co-occurs with other chronic conditions, and despite the high
prevalence of multimorbidity (MMB) in this group, conditions are often treated individually,
resulting in multiple prescriptions. Polypharmacy ...
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 ...
