Minimum cost scheduling of resource constrained jobs on parallel machines under control of interchangeable processors

Creator:: Ng, George Kwok Wing
Abstract:: A special case of a parallel multiprocessor scheduling (MP) problem is investigated. A set of jobs with a known process time and a.resource requirement is scheduled on machines controlled by processors,and the total changeover cost between jobs is to be minimized. Each processor may control up to two machines and...

An organizational analysis of structural characteristics during the merger of two higher education organizations

Creator:: McMahon, John J.
Abstract:: Organization theory had seldom been applied to higher education organizations but recent developments in organization theory appeared to have potential for such application. No coherent theory of educational change had been developed. However, one multidisciplinary synthesis of literature on organizational change was congruent with modern organization theory and contained both...

The establishment and utilization of the work unit as a means of measuring productivity in a hospital pharmacy

Creator:: Thonstad, Ralph Edward
Abstract:: Historically, patient days were used to assess pharmacy staffing levels at Albany General Hospital. It was the impression of the director of pharmacy that patient days were an incomplete and therefore unacceptable indicator of personnel requirements. Therefore, a study was initiated to: 1) develop a methodology that would document and...

Determining the Superior Staffing Method in Assisted Living Facilities: Ratios versus Acuity-Based Staffing

Creator:: Finley, Tera R.
Abstract:: Assisted living facilities represent a large portion of the long-term care facilities in the United States. Although there are not uniform policies regulating assisted living facilities, debates on the best way to ensure adequate staffing center on two approaches: required ratios or acuity-based staffing. The purpose of this study is...

Water relations in red and white clover seed crops

Creator:: Oliva, Ruben N.
Abstract:: Both red (Trifolium pratense L.) and white (Trifolium repens L.) clover seed yields can be highly variable and low in western Oregon. The objectives of this study were to: i) determine crop water requirements and supplemental irrigation timing, and ii) quantify the effects of soil and water status on inflorescence...

Differential gene expression in the pregnant bovine corpus luteum during maternal recognition of pregnancy

Creator:: DuBay, Kristi M.
Abstract:: Interferon tau (IFN-τ) is the pregnancy recognition signal secreted by the trophectodermal cells of the developing bovine embryo that prevents luteolysis and maintains critical progesterone production. Recent evidence has suggested in addition to the mechanism of action identified in the uterus, there may be a direct effect of IFN-τ on...

Rocky Mountain elk (Cervus elaphus nelsoni) behavior and movement in relation to lunar phases

Creator:: Woodside, Gail J.
Abstract:: Two small herds of Rocky Mountain (Cervus elaphus nelsoni) cow elk were, collared, observed, and spatially mapped for 10 continuous six day trials, conducted during 2008-2009. Five trials occurred during full moon periods and five trials during new moon periods. The elk were collared with 1 second interval GPS loggers...

Expression and Function of Populus Homologs to TERMINAL FLOWER 1 Genes: Roles in Onset of Flowering and Shoot Phenology

Creator:: Mohamed, Rozi
Abstract:: We isolated and characterized the expression of two genes from Populus trichocarpa that are homologous to the TERMINAL FLOWER 1 (TFL1) gene from the model annual plant Arabidopsis. In Arabidopsis, overexpression of the TFL1 gene extends the vegetative growth phase, and the homozygous mutant tfl1 allele causes early flowering and...

Exploring functional links between circadian clocks, neurodegeneration, and aging in Drosophila melanogaster

Creator:: Rakshit, Kuntol
Abstract:: Circadian clocks are endogenous molecular mechanisms that coordinate daily rhythms in gene expression, cellular activities, and physiological functions with external day/night cycles. Breakdown of circadian rhythms such as sleep/wake cycles is associated with the onset of several neurological diseases; however, it is not clear whether disruption of rhythms is a...
