A high speed motion neutron radiography system has been developed
at Oregon State University which is capable of taking high speed
neutron radiographs of events which occur on the order of one to two
milliseconds or more. This system was used previously to demonstrate
the application of high speed motion...
The primary goal of this research was to determine the concentration and composition of nucleotides, as nucleoside monophosphates and nucleobases, in the underutilized reproductive organs (milt and roe) of Alaska pollock (Gadus chalcogrammus) and yellowfin sole (Limanda aspera). Changes in concentrations of these nucleotides and nucleotide analogs were observed with...
Sections of the landscape in north central Oregon are
dominated by numerous soil mounds surrounded by stone rings. Mounds
vary in size and shape depending on slope and mound density. Internal
soil mass is free of stones to the bedrock level and is covered
by successive layers of volcanic ash....
A better understanding of grass seed crop and soil fertility is necessary to
improve fertilizer practices and preserving water quality in Willamette Valley,
Oregon, where 55% of land-use is in grass seed production that directly impacts
adjacent waterways containing native protected fish species. I determined tillage
effects on soil N...
The purpose of this thesis is to explore dependency speculation in Dynamic Simultaneous Multi-Threading (DSMT). DSMT is a microprocessor architecture which attempts to extract Thread Level Parallelism (TLP) from single-threaded programs at run-time. This is accomplished by running multiple iterations of program loops in parallel. The DSMT architecture was originally...
