Many agricultural producers are using computerized database management systems to maintain and analyze their records. Very powerful database management systems now available for desktop computers are used in a wide variety of agricultural applications. Machinery, crop, livestock, and payroll records are all commonly maintained with database management systems.

Most conventional approaches to rating turf color for different turf varieties grown
under similar conditions or for the same variety grown under different cultural conditions
employ a visual subjective rating. By digitizing remotely sensed images acquired by use
of a helium filled blimp and a Canon EOS camera, we were...
Proceedings of a workshop held November 15 and 16 1983. This is the first in a series of Regional Publications by the Western Computer Consortium. The Consortium is comprised of Western Land Grant Universities and is designed to share computer related information between faculty and staff of the member institutions....
In the context of forest products, a cutting order is a list of dimension parts along with demanded quantities. The cutting-order problem is to minimize the total cost of filling the cutting order from a given lumber grade (or grades). Lumber of a given grade is supplied to the production...
As ocean ecosystems continue to deteriorate in the face of human induced pressures, marine management professionals are increasingly being urged to predict the impacts of various activities on ocean ecosystems. Many ecosystem interactions are still not adequately understood, so managers often turn to scientists to provide data and analysis on...
The focus of this research was to examine the relationship between the Oregon secondary agricultural education teachers’ level of computer-based technology integration, perceptions of barriers to computer-based technology integration, and learning style preferences. Additionally the correlational analysis of the level of computer-based technology integration and the following demographic variables was...
Geospatial data analysis is a multifaceted discipline encompassing the collection, processing, and visualization of diverse datasets. It models and delineates the interactions of people, objects, and phenomena within geographical spaces and predicts patterns based on the relationships between different locations. Despite significant advancements in geospatial data engineering and analytics over...
Three library faculty at Oregon State University (OSU), a research intensive university, created the Data Sharing Wizard (the Wizard), a Scenario-Based, online, interactive learning tool that helps students learn about the sharing of research datasets with a focus on intellectual property and decision making. Using the Wizard, students are able...
Sequence alignments, phylogenetic trees, and associated information for Phylogenetic Estimation and Ancestral State Reconstruction of Rubus (Rosaceae) using Target Capture Sequencing
A flipped classroom provides students with course content in the form of videos, readings, and/or simulations that they complete during the time traditionally used for homework assignments while in-class time is devoted to hands-on group learning activities. Project BoxSand is gathering quantitative data on how students in a flipped classroom,...
