(Mis)representation & Postcolonial Masculinity : The Origins of Violence in the Plays and Films of Martin McDonagh

Creator:: Evans, Nicolas M. J.
Abstract:: This thesis examines the postmodern confrontation of representation throughout the oeuvre of Martin McDonagh. I particularly look to his later body of work, which directly and self-reflexively confronts issues of artistic representation & masculinity, in order to gain a more nuanced understanding of his earliest and most controversial plays. In...

Executable semantics for PLEXIL : simulating a task-scheduling language in Haskell

Creator:: Strauss, Paul J.
Abstract:: An interdisciplinary study into the theory of design decisions has yielded a model for tracking design changes in hardware/software systems, but it still needs to be applied to a larger system to test its efficiency at tracking important data. This thesis creates an implementation of PLEXIL, a language in development...

Habitat Associations and Diet Composition of Western Purple Martins in Western Oregon

Creator:: Sherman, Lorelle M.
Abstract:: The western purple martin (Progne subis arboricola) is a species of conservation concern throughout the Pacific Northwest. In western Oregon, the purple martin nests in three major ecosystem types: inland open-water, coastal, and upland forest. The availability of suitable breeding habitat is a major limiting factor for western purple martin...

The effect of precipitation variation and fertilization level on the nutritive value of wheat residue

Creator:: Carey, Anne C.
Abstract:: Five simulated precipitation patterns characteristic of the Columbia Basin and Plateau region and six fertilization rates were evaluated for their effect on percent crude protein, percent in vitro dry matter digestibility, fiber content, and yield of wheat aftermath on a commercial farm in north central Oregon. The higher moisture regimes...

Validation of elk distribution models at Sled Springs Wildlife Demonstration Area, northeast Oregon

Creator:: Coe, Priscilla K.
Abstract:: Landscape models for elk distribution developed at Starkey Experimental Forest and Range from 1993-1995 were tested on another landscape during 2003-2005 at Sled Springs Wildlife Demonstration Area. Using location data obtained from 23 wild elk captured and fitted with GPS telemetry collars, 8 spatial resource selection function models representing 8...

Food habits and diet quality of deer and cattle and herbage production of a sagebrush-grassland range

Creator:: Hilken, Thomas O.
Abstract:: Research was conducted on the Keating rangelands in north-eastern Oregon to determine the food habits of deer and cattle and similarity of their diets, and to estimate deer and cattle months of grazing on both a quantitative and nutritional basis. Data were collected during the winters of 1978-1979, 1979-1980 and...

Customizable Visual Traces for Program Explanations

Creator:: Bajaj, Divya
Abstract:: Correctness and efficiency are important properties of programs. However, to support maintenance and debugging, the programs should also be understandable. Program explanations also play a vital role in educational settings, enhancing the understanding of programs among students. Proof trees provide a sound basis for generating dynamic explanations of programs. But...

Evolution of a streamlined cooperator in Pseudomonas aeruginosa quorum sensing

Creator:: Huie, Jessica L.
Abstract:: Social behavior leading to the production of common goods is prone to exploitation. One such behavior in Pseudomonas aeruginosa is quorum sensing (QS), by which the bacteria produce signals to regulate extracellular common goods. Exploitation comes in the form of cheaters which have a mutation in the central quorum sensing...

The influence of grazing systems on the performance and diet of yearling cattle

Creator:: Berry, Timothy James
Abstract:: Research was conducted at the Starkey Experimental Forest and Range in northeastern Oregon to determine cattle performance, diet quality, botanical composition of forage ingested, and production and utilization among rest-rotation, season-long, and deferred rotation grazing systems. The grazing season lasted from June 20 to October 10 of each year. Cows...

Influence of cow age/experience and landscape thermal regimes on distribution and grazing patterns of cattle in northeastern Oregon mixed conifer forested rangelands

Creator:: Wells, Micah
Abstract:: Two studies were conducted to determine the factors influencing distribution of cattle on northeastern Oregon mixed-conifer forested rangelands. The objective of the first study was the quantification of differences in distribution of cattle of different ages. Beginning in 1991, and continuing through 2001, radio telemetry collars were placed on a...
