Institutions, Theology, and the Language of Freedom in the Poetry and Prose of John Milton
(University of Waterloo, 2018-08-20)Freedom is an essential topic in the writings of John Milton, but what he means by this term varies over the course of his career. Milton’s prose works centre on religious and political liberty, which explore how the ... -
An Instruction Scratchpad Memory Allocation for the Precision Timed Architecture
(University of Waterloo, 2012-12-18)This work presents a static instruction allocation scheme for the precision timed architecture’s (PRET) scratchpad memory. Since PRET provides timing instructions to control the temporal execution of programs, the objective ... -
Instrumental Landscapes: Sustainable Strategies for Wetland Development
(University of Waterloo, 2010-08-25)As a result of widespread urban development over the past two decades, global wetlands are disappearing at an alarming rate. This thesis develops a series of strategies for protecting wetland ecosystems from the ecological ... -
Instrumental Matrix: Regenerative Systems in Hamilton, Ontario
(University of Waterloo, 2007-01-22)Positioned at the metaphysical divide between civilization and wilderness, this thesis investigates the potential for symbiotic relationships among cultural, ecological and industrial systems in an effort to suggest ... -
Instrumentation and Overall Evaluation of Perpetual and Conventional Flexible Pavement Designs
(University of Waterloo, 2009-08-28)The perpetual structural pavement design is currently being explored for usage in Canada and worldwide. This thick structural design can provide many potential benefits but it also has associated costs. Cold Canadian winters ... -
Instruments
(University of Waterloo, 2010-08-11)The Instruments installation represents the superimposition of two systems. The marketed elements that comprise the hegemony exerted by commodity culture are placed on top of the occult qabalistic Tree of Life. This ... -
Inszenierungen von Erinnerung und kollektivem Gedächtnis. Hermann Hesses <em>Das Glasperlenspiel</em> als Gedächtnisroman.
(University of Waterloo, 2005)This thesis examins various representations of individual memories and collective memory in Hermann Hesse?s <em>Das Glasperlenspiel</em> (1946). The analysis of Hermann Hesse?s novel basically pursues three different ... -
Integrability in AdS/CFT: Exacts Results for Correlation Functions
(University of Waterloo, 2012-06-14)We report on the first systematic study of correlation functions in N=4 super Yang-Mills theory using integrability techniques. In particular, we show how to compute three- and four- point functions of single-trace ... -
Integral Moments of Quadratic Dirichlet L-functions: A Computational Perspective
(University of Waterloo, 2010-04-27)In recent years, the moments of L-functions has been a topic of growing interest in the field of analytic number theory. New techniques, including applications of Random Matrix Theory and multiple Dirichlet series, have ... -
An Integral Projection Model for Giant Hogweed
(University of Waterloo, 2019-02-04)In this thesis I investigate the impact that the choice of model may have on predictions of giant hogweed population dynamics. It has been shown in two case studies that population growth rates predicted by matrix population ... -
Integrality theorems for symmetric instantons
(University of Waterloo, 2022-08-05)Anti-self-dual (ASD) instantons on R4 are connections A on SU(N)-vector bundles with finite L2-norm and curvature satisfying the ASD equation. Solutions to this non-linear partial differential equation correspond to certain ... -
Integrated Antennas and Active Beamformers Technology for mm-Wave Phased-Array Systems
(University of Waterloo, 2012-04-24)In this thesis, based on the indoor channel measurements and ray-tracing modeling for the indoor mm-wave wireless communications, the challenges of the design of the radio in this band is studied. Considering the recently ... -
An Integrated Approach to Paleo-Ice Stream Determination in Mid Continental Prairies, Saskatchewan, Canada
(University of Waterloo, 2009-10-02)Ice stream research has gained momentum in the last decade due to the increased need to understand ice sheet dynamics and instability and, by extension, the role ice streams have on climate change and sea level rise. ... -
Integrated Asset Management Framework and Model for Water Distribution Networks
(University of Waterloo, 2020-05-28)The Canadian Infrastructure Report Card (2012) estimates the replacement value of water assets to be $362 billion. Water distribution and wastewater collection networks have been in service for more than a century in the ... -
An Integrated Behavior and Demand-Oriented Methodology for Quality of Service Evaluation of Bicycle Infrastructure
(University of Waterloo, 2023-02-13)Cycling is a viable mode of transport, and its mode share is consistently growing in many parts of the globe. However, many existing infrastructures still lack the safety and convenience that cyclists of all levels of ... -
Integrated Circuit and Antenna Technology for Millimeter-wave Phased Array Radio Front-end
(University of Waterloo, 2010-05-21)Ever growing demands for higher data rate and bandwidth are pushing extremely high data rate wireless applications to millimeter-wave band (30-300GHz), where sufficient bandwidth is available and high data rate wireless ... -
Integrated Computational Measurement System for Enhanced Polarimetric Measurements
(University of Waterloo, 2015-04-30)Polarimetry is an useful tool in chemical identification and characterisation both inside and outside the lab. It is a modality where the effects of chiral molecules, water impurities and cancerous cells are noticeable ... -
Integrated Daily Windows and But-For Analyses for Accurate Schedule Forensics in Construction Projects
(University of Waterloo, 2021-10-04)Construction projects usually operate in dynamic multi-party constrained environments that frequently cause schedule delays and cost overruns and lead to disputes among parties. To mitigate such disputes and fairly apportion ... -
