  • Developing Tools to Utilize the Oregon State University Woody Plant Collection and Establish a Campus Arboretum

    Creator:
    Blanchard, William D.
    Abstract:
    Oregon State University campus grounds have long been admired for their beauty and the diversity of over 65,000 individual woody plants that grace the 570 acres of campus. The woody plant collection has provided a living learning laboratory for the university and surrounding community for decades. The campus grounds include...

  • Weevils That Live Under Trees Thrown Out of the Sea: Phylogeny and Microbial Diversity of Sthereus Motschulsky, 1845 and Related Weevils (Curculionidae: Molytinae)

    Creator:
    Young, Natasha
    Abstract:
    Here the diversity and phylogeny of the genus, Sthereus Motschulsky, 1845, and its nearest associates in the large subfamily Molytinae are explored through molecular and morphological characters. Sanger sequencing of five genes determined that Sthereus is not monophyletic. Instead, the one species in the genus Gastrotaphrus Buchanan 1936, G. barberi...

  • Evaluation of education libraries for teacher education accreditation

    Creator:
    Knittel, Marjorie C.
    Abstract:
    The purpose of this investigation was to examine the literature in education and library science to determine why standards for education libraries have not been realized, in the light of the specific criteria for other areas of teacher education accreditation. Educators and librarians in favor of strict standards for education...

  • Digital library software architectures : TeachEngineering case study

    Creator:
    Suryadevara, Venkata Satya Gokul
    Abstract:
    Digital libraries are digitally accessible, organized collections of knowledge. Although under this broad definition any digitally accessible data set might be considered a digital library, the term is generally reserved for collections whose structures are carefully documented and made available in the form of so-called metadata. There is no specific...

  • A library for doing polyhedral operations

    Creator:
    Wilde, Doran K.
    Abstract:
    Polyhedra are geometric representations of linear systems of equations and inequalities. Since polyhedra are used to represent the iteration domains of nested loop programs, procedures for operating on polyhedra can be used for doing loop transformations and other program restructuring transformations which are needed in parallelizing compilers. Thus a need...

  • New algorithms for the functional graph library

    Creator:
    Zerón, Luis
    Abstract:
    The Functional Graph Library (FGL) contains type and function definitions to address graph problems. In this report, we present the implementation of several graph algorithms to be added to the FGL. The current implementation of the FGL follows an inductive view of graphs, and all the presented graph algorithms try...

  • Low Impact Development in the Ash Creek Watershed, Oregon : Feasibility Study and Implementation Tool Design

    Creator:
    Chalmers, Douglas R.
    Abstract:
    This study presents potential Low Impact Development (LID) solutions for the Ash Creek watershed and designs several tools to assist localities in implementing the solutions they may choose. Ash Creek is a tributary of the Willamette River flowing through Dallas, Monmouth, and Independence in Polk County, Oregon. Currently, Ash Creek...

  • Implementing a Run-time Library for a Parallel MATLAB Compiler

    Creator:
    Malishevsky, Alexey
    Abstract:
    Programming parallel machines has been a difficult and unrewarding task. The short lifespan of parallel machines and their incompatibility have made it difficult to utilize them. Our goal here is to create an environment for parallel computing which allows users to take advantage of parallel computers without writing parallel programs....

  • Libraries : an organizational tool for the X2 environment

    Creator:
    Wodtli, Richard B.
    Abstract:
    X2 [4] is a Smalltalk-like programming environment [1]. As it has grown in size and complexity the existing organizational tools have become inadequate for user and system needs. This project addresses this deficiency and some of its important consequences. The entities to be organized are those that are a fixed...

  • Student Evaluative Sensemaking on Homework in Intermediate Mechanics

    Creator:
    Hahn, Kelby T.
    Abstract:
    Physicists seek to understand the world and often use mathematics to aid in attaining that goal. Thus when doing mathematics they often interrogate their results in order to ensure that they align with their expectations and to gain new insight into how the world works. This seeking of coherence between...
