  • The role of documentation in program modification tasks

    Creator:
    Tolman, David M.
    Abstract:
    This paper reports the findings of two studies conducted at Oregon State University. The first set of studies compares use of header comments versus mnemonic procedure and function names by programmers performing tasks relating to modification tasks. The second study compares the use of header comments versus in-line comments when...

  • Greening a Red State: Understanding the Complexities of Environmental Policy in Florida

    Creator:
    Dearden, Grace
    Abstract:
    In some legislative bodies, the use of terms like climate change and global warming is frequently seen as taboo. In the United States, voters who identify as right-leaning have reported little concern about the environment or climate change. This lack of interest is mirrored by Republican legislators who often publicly...

  • Tracing the Pacific Islander Diaspora in the Pacific Northwest

    Creator:
    Yarbrough, Nicole
    Abstract:
    The Pacific Islander diaspora in the Pacific Northwest United States is a unique community characterized by diverse cultures, experiences, and motivations for migration. This study aimed to explore the narratives of individuals from different Pacific Islander backgrounds residing in Oregon, shedding light on their reasons for migration and the impact...

  • “Narco-Deforestation” in Central American Protected Areas: Developing A Spatiotemporal Proxy Database for Drug-Trafficking Activities from Media Reporting

    Creator:
    Cameron, Olivia Z.
    Abstract:
    On a global scale, illicit economies have dramatic impacts on the physical environment. Cocaine trafficking has been recognized as a major driver of deforestation inside Central American protected areas. A key problem in studying and managing the environmental impacts of illicit economic activity is the difficulty in obtaining reliable data....

  • Removing Residual Lane Markings to Reduce Driver Confusion

    Creator:
    Weber, Jane B.
    Abstract:
    When pavement markings on roadways are removed, scarring can occur leaving behind traces of where the marking used to be called ghost lines. These ghost lines can confuse drivers on the roadway and divert their attention from the correct lane markings leading them into the false lane. Previous research has...

  • Preliminary X2 language reference manual

    Creator:
    Sandberg, David
    Abstract:
    X2 is an object-oriented programming language. Object-oriented programming models everything in the world as objects that have some local state that may vary with time. If the state of an object varies with time the object is mutable. If the state is time independent the object is immutable. Each object's...

  • Type systems of object-oriented programming languages

    Creator:
    Sandberg, David W.
    Abstract:
    Three different approaches to type checking have been taken in object-oriented programming languages. Smalltalk-80 uses run-time type checking. C++ uses subtypes. A third alternative is to use parameterized types. We examine the difficulties of programming in an object-oriented fashion with compile-time type checking and argue that parameterized types are better...

  • A Fabrication Process and Analysis of ZnO-ZnS-Sb₂S3₃ Thin Film Solar Cells

    Creator:
    Catherall, David
    Abstract:
    The purpose of this research is to provide a simple fabrication method for zinc oxide and antimony sulfide based thin film solar cells. Both a ZnO nanorod electron conducting structure and a stibnite absorber show promise in a solar cell. Initial attempts at using only ZnO and Sb2S3, however, resulted...

  • Evidence for xylem embolism as a primary factor in dehydration-induced declines in leaf hydraulic conductance

    Creator:
    Johnson, Daniel M., McCulloh, Katherine A., Woodruff, David R., and Meinzer, Frederick C.
    Abstract:
    Hydraulic conductance of leaves (K[subscript leaf]) typically decreases with increasing water stress and recent studies have proposed different mechanisms responsible for decreasing K[subscript leaf]. We measured K[subscript leaf] concurrently with ultrasonic acoustic emissions (UAEs) in dehydrating leaves of several species to determine whether declining K[subscript leaf] was associated with xylem...
