Soil surface CO2 efflux across the climatic gradient of the Oregon Transect for Terrestrial Ecological Research (OTTER)

Creator:: Martin, Mark A.
Abstract:: Soil CO2 efflux is a major contributor of CO2 to the atmosphere. The rate that CO2 is respired out of the soil is called the soil flux (Fs). Many variables alter Fs. These variables differ drastically in the variety of ecosystems found on the earth. It is important to understand...

Analysis of Mutations Affecting Cooperation in Pseudomonas aeruginosa Populations

Creator:: Robinson, Tanner M.
Abstract:: In a process called quorum sensing (QS), the bacterial pathogen Pseudomonas aeruginosa uses small diffusible signals to coordinate cooperative behaviors via secreted “public goods”. Under QS-dependent growth conditions, social cheaters arise with mutations in lasR, the gene for the primary QS signal receptor. These cheaters do not produce public goods....

The choice calculus : a formal language of variation

Creator:: Walkingshaw, Eric
Abstract:: In this thesis I present the choice calculus, a formal language for representing variation in software and other structured artifacts. The choice calculus is intended to support variation research in a way similar to the lambda calculus in programming language research. Specifically, it provides a simple formal basis for presenting,...

A Language for Querying Source Code Repositories

Creator:: Kumar, Deepthi S.
Abstract:: The history of a software project plays a vital role in the software development process. Version control systems enable users of a software repository to look at the evolution of the source code, and see the changes that led to newer versions. Currently, version control systems provide commands that can...

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...

Effects of Predator Introductions on Population and Community Dynamics

Creator:: Ingeman, Kurt E.
Abstract:: There is increasing awareness that human activities are altering the ways that natural systems operate and that local shifts in species composition and abundance can lead to abrupt and irreversible global change. Therefore, understanding the processes that buffer biological communities from critical shifts and how our actions affect natural stabilizing...
