The three important methods of approximation; interpolation,
least- squares, and Chebyshev, are extended into bivariate approximations.
A method of obtaining polynomial approximations for very
general classes of bivariate samples is developed. Bivariate least -
square approximations are reviewed and a method of developing bibariate
orthogonal sequence is derived. A method...
Interval arithmetic is applied to the problem of obtaining
rigorous solutions to integral equations on a computer. The
integral equations considered are the linear Fredholm equation of
the second kind and the nonlinear Urysohn equation. Techniques are
presented which enable the computer to find an approximate
solution, prove the existence...
A simulation model capable of execution on a programmable
calculator was developed to study voluntary intake,
liveweight change, and fertility of grade Zebu cows in the
Llanos of Colombia. Organic nitrogen in the diet and meta
bolic weight were used to predict intake; age, liveweight,
and energy concentration were the...
Purpose of the Study The purpose of this study was to: (1) develop a model for predicting high school students' occupational choice satisfaction by measuring the impact of vocational education programs on career decisions, and (2) to examine the validity and the efficiency of the model by testing it on...
The goal of this research was to identify those program elements
and their levels of fulfillment in community college cooperative
education programs which are essential if the success of an employer's
contribution to a student's training is to be reasonably assured.
The primary purpose was to determine if statistically significant...
This thesis describes a syntax-directed compiler-compiler
called COMCOM which has been implemented by the author on the CDC
3300 under the OS-3 operating system. The theory and terminology
of the parsing method and compiler-compilers in general are briefly
discussed. COMCOM uses Floyd's operator precedence bottom-up
parsing technique which avoids backup...
