Fall 2011
In this thesis, we focus on topics relevant to developing and deploying large-scale wireless sensor network (WSN) applications within real dynamic urban environments. Given few reported experiences in the literature, we designed our own such network to provide a foundation for our research. The...

Visualization of Course Requisites
Fall 2009
We present an interactive tool for browsing the requisites between courses in the University of Alberta as a case study of dependency visualization. This tool uses multiple interactive visualizations to allow the user to explore the courses' dependencies. We performed a usability study that...

Fall 2016
This thesis is an experimental investigation using optical methods to study atomization of fuel injectors for IC engines using a dual fuel mixture involving diesel and gasoline blends, which is called "dieseline". Experiments were executed in a heated pressurized optical chamber which simulated...

Spring 2016
How can the principles and concepts applied by visual communication designers be used to assist in exploring and understanding the massive, complex volumes of data now available to Digital Humanities researchers? One method we might employ to help us more easily comprehend the implications of...

Fall 2018
Three-dimensional (3-D) visualization of the distribution of chemical species of interest in biofilms enhances our understanding of important structural and functional characteristics of biofilms. In a previous study, the 3-D oxygen distribution in an approximately 1 mm3 wastewater biofilm was...

The social-psychological process involved in using human patient simulators as a teaching/learning modality in undergraduate nursing education
DownloadSpring 2011
The use of the high-fidelity human patient simulator (HPS) based clinical scenario in undergraduate nursing education is a powerful learning tool well suited to modern students’ preference for immersive construction of knowledge through the provision of contextually rich reality-based practice...

Fall 2011
Recent shifts towards spatial issues within education are examined, and mapping is identified as particularly important. The multidisciplinary trend of complexity science is surveyed, in turn, through the lens of physics and education research. The provincial education system of Alberta is...

The calm carrel: a relaxation technique for students with emotional and behavioural disorders
DownloadSpring 2011
The present study examined the implementation of a self-management strategy, termed the calm carrel, as a potential means of bringing about behavioural improvement (as reflected, primarily, in global behavioural ratings, extent of isolation time-out assignments, and student and teacher feedback)...

The application of simulation methodologies on estimating gas emissions from construction equipment
DownloadSpring 2011
Construction contributes significantly to gas emissions. Diverse efforts have been undertaken to mitigate the effects of these emissions; however, there currently is no effective tool to estimate small-scale (e.g., project-based) emissions in construction. Discrete-event simulation (DES), a new...

Fall 2016
This thesis seeks to examine the current state of the provenance metadata of rare books and manuscripts in digital special collections, and how that metadata can be enhanced using visualization tools. The multi-faceted nature of provenance is addressed, as well as the standards used to capture...
