Relationships between forest-floor invertebrate distribution, movement, and microclimate under alternative riparian management practices

Creator:: Rykken, Jessica J.
Abstract:: Headwater streams and their riparian zones are a common, yet poorly understood, component of Pacific Northwest landscapes. I sought to describe the ecological significance of headwater stream riparian zones as habitat for forest-floor invertebrate communities, and to assess how alternative management strategies for riparian zones may impact these communities. I...

Explanations and Processes to Enable Humans to Assess AI with Respect to Manipulable Properties

Creator:: Dodge, Jonathan E.
Abstract:: Assessing AI systems is difficult. Humans rely on AI systems in increasing ways, both visible and invisible, meaning a variety of stakeholders need a variety of assessment tools (e.g., a professional auditor, a developer, and an end user all have different needs). We posit that it is possible to provide...

Information foraging in debugging

Creator:: Lawrance, Joseph A.
Abstract:: Programmers spend a substantial fraction of their debugging time by navigating through source code, yet little is known about how programmers navigate. With the continuing growth in size and complexity of software, this fraction of time is likely to increase, which presents challenges to those seeking both to understand and...

Helping end-user programmers help themselves : the idea garden approach

Creator:: Cao, Chen
Abstract:: End-user programmers face many barriers in programming. Research has seen many programming environments that attempted to lower or remove the barriers but despite these efforts, empirical studies continue to report barriers users face. To investigate this issue, we took a theory-informed approach. Using theories from design, creativity, and problem solving...

Eliciting informal specifications from scientific modelers for evaluation and debugging

Creator:: Bogart, Christopher
Abstract:: Professional software engineers have an arsenal of techniques such as unit testing and assertions to check their specifications, but these techniques require tools, motivation, experience and training that programmers without professional software engineering training may not have. As a result, professionals in other fields, such as scientific modelers, face greater...

Variations Foraging

Creator:: Srinivasa Ragavan, Sruti
Abstract:: Information Foraging Theory (IFT) has successfully explained how people seek information in various domains, in turn, informing the design of several tools and information-intensive environments. However, prior research has not explored foraging in the presence of several, very similar variants of the same artifact. Such variants are commonplace in several...

Environmental Remote Sensing with Unmanned Aircraft Systems

Creator:: Burnett, Jonathan D.
Abstract:: Small Unmanned Aircraft Systems (sUASs) equipped with optical sensors are capableof remotely sensing landscapes and wildlife at spatial and temporal resolutions that werepreviously inaccessible due to technical and budgetary limitations. Conventional remotesensing and photogrammetric workflows can be applied to the resulting high resolution imageryto facilitate new types of scientific inquiry....

Development and in vivo testing of novel hydrochlorothiazide gastric retention formulations in healthy volunteers and stage I hypertensive patients

Creator:: Farid, Samar Farghali
Abstract:: This thesis describes in vitro and in vivo evaluation of a gastric retention formulation (GRF) developed at Oregon State University. The formulation was prepared from xanthan gum and locust bean gum as gelling agents and other formulation ingredients were added, then it was originally vacuum oven dried. The effect of...
