Alternative Timing in Digital Logic
(2015-12-14)
For many decades using a system clock has been the go-to method of timing circuits. CPUs in particular have been at least partially defined by the speed of their clock. As technology moves forward, this is proving more and ...
Amalgamations and Detachments of Graphs and Hypergraphs
(2012-07-09)
A \textit{detachment} of a graph $H$ is a graph obtained from $H$ by splitting some or all of its vertices into more than one vertex. If $g$ is a function from $V(H)$ into $\mathbb {N}$, then a \textit{$g$-detachment} of ...
Ambassadors of Community: The History and Complicity of the Family Community in Midnight’s Children and the God of Small Things
(2009-04-27)
This thesis seeks to explore the usefulness of the family as a theoretical construct that serves to provide stability to characters in postcolonial literature in the absence of a stable national community. Benedict Anderson‟s ...
Ambiguous Energy Suppression in Encryption Derived Pseudo-Random BPSK Radar Signals
(2021-12-01)
In this thesis, a pseudo-random binary phase shift keying (BPSK) radar signal is developed using Advanced Encryption Standard (AES-192). The primary objective of this encryption based BPSK (E-BPSK) signal is to provide a ...
America Animated: Nationalist Ideology in Warner Brothers' Animaniacs
(2008-12-15)
Television cartoons help to construct and maintain our perceptions of social reality. A depth hermeneutic approach for studying the Warner Brothers’ cartoon, Animaniacs, is described. Analysis of episodes featuring Yakko, ...
American Aerial Perspectives: Observations on the Technological Development of Military Aviation during the Spanish Civil War, 1936-1939
(2020-07-14)
The Spanish Civil War, 1936-1939, marked the full integration of airpower into warfare and introduced the latest developments in aviation technology. Whereas the First World War featured dogfights between wooden biplanes, ...
American Civil Religion Reexamined: A Preliminary Study into Organic and Contrived Civil Theology
(2007-05-15)
Civil religion forms both the basis and the underlying reality for any human
society, informing the myth structure of society and how a society interprets itself within the structure of reality. A distinction, however, ...
American Masculinity in Contemporary Adult Comics
(2011-05-04)
The connections between American comics and American men have been an interest to the academy since Frederic Wertham’s attack on comic’s influence on American youth in 1954. This study examines the current trends in ...
AmericanWork, Inc. Supportive Living Program: A Program Evaluation
(2012-08-29)
The AmericanWork, Inc. Supportive Living Program is a residential program for the severe and persistent mentally ill. This program evaluation sought to determine the variables which impact the consumer transitioning out ...
Amino acid supplementation of hydrolyzed feather meal for finisher pig diets
(2008-05-15)
The objective of this study was to determine the possibility of replacing soybean meal (SBM) in pig diets completely with hydrolyzed feather meal (FM). Corn-SBM, finisher 1 and 2 positive control (PC) diets were formulated ...
Ammonium Thiosulfate and Potassium Thiosulfate as Potential Nitrification Inhibitors in Soils
(2024-03-12)
Nitrogen use efficiency (NUE) can vary according to soil properties, precipitation, and
soil temperature. Nitrification inhibitors show potential to increase NUE by decreasing the
amount of N lost from leaching and ...
Amount and quality of supervision as moderating factors between couple therapeutic alliance and change in couple therapy
(2005-12-15)
The purpose of this thesis was to examine the moderating effect of quality and quantity of supervision on the relationship between couple therapeutic alliance and change in couple therapy. The sample is collected from ...
