The immune system has been identified as a very sensitive target for the toxic effects of 2,3,7,S-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD). Exposure to TCDD has been shown to disrupt the generation of both cell-mediated and humoral T cell-dependent immunity in laboratory animals; however, the mechanism remains unknown. In this dissertation, the hypothesis is...
Studies investigating the effects of feeding diets
containing the yeast, Saccharomyces cerevisiae var.
boulardii (SCB), and a yeast culture (YC) containing S.
cerevisiae were conducted in market turkeys and Medium White
turkey breeder hens.
Increased utilization of dietary gross energy, N, Ca,
P, B, K, Mg, and Mn were observed...
The purpose of this study was to determine the nature and process of clinical
supervision via the Internet as experienced by participating supervisees. The subjects of
this study were four students in a masters level internship course in counseling at
Oregon State University. The course was a pass/no pass counseling...
We describe a set of data flow techniques and code transformations that translate a single instruction stream, multiple data stream (SIMD) Dataparallel C program into a semantically equivalent single program, multiple data stream (SPMD) C program suitable for execution on shared memory multiprocessor computers, such as the Sequent Balance and...
The Transtheoretical Model of behavior change was applied to a sample of 669 preadolescents (M age = 8.2) to determine whether stages of exercise could be observed. Associations between stage of exercise classification and demographic, fitness, and cognitive variables were examined. Stage of exercise classifications, on the basis of the...
It often makes sense to write a program in the SIMD style, even if the program is to execute on a MIMD computer. Simulating physical events, in which all motion takes place simultaneously, is one area in which SIMD languages fit the applications particularly well. In this paper we present...
