Technical report TR94-06. Object-oriented computing is influencing many areas of computer science, including database systems. Despite many advances, object-oriented computing is still in its infancy and a universally accepted definition of an object-oriented model is virtually nonexistent. In
of objects, defines a clear separation between primitive components, and incorporates a uniform semantics over objects. A behavioral model definition specifies the semantics of objects and this is integrated with a structural model to form a complete model definition. The meta-model is uniformly

pond was perched above the water table. This pond was instrumented in September 1987 to monitor the subsurface water and salinity regime. Observations that continued throughout 1988 and 1989 provide the basis of this report. The closed basin responsible for the existence of pond S195 was formed by
produced a hydraulic barrier with sufficiently high density and low hydraulic conductivity that rapid downward drainage of the ponded water was prevented. The hydraulic conductivity was further reduced by sealing of the upper surface of the spoil as a result of structural collapse of sodic clay in

workers. This final report serves to provide a thorough review of the research completed as part of the creative sentencing project resulting from that fatality. It represents an unprecedented collaboration and initiative between the oil sands industry, regional contractors, the Province of Alberta, and
as training, permits, and hazard assessment to protect worker safety. This value was confirmed by engineers who indicated that engineering controls and elimination and substitution methods are implemented in the design phase, but administrative controls are the primary method to mitigate hazards in
the Canadian Institute of Mining Convention 2018, Petroleum Safety Conference 2018, Canadian Chemical Engineering Conference 2017 and 2018, GeoEdmonton 2018, and 2018 Geohazards 7. The attendees at these presentations provided valuable feedback on the project at every stage of the research process

, and rising living standards. Therefore, the performance of the industry is critical to Alberta's economy. In the thirty-two year period of 1961-1993, the Alberta food and beverage industry has experience fundamental structural changes toward greater scale economies featured by higher levels of
profitability and market share. Total factor productivity, measured by the index number approach, has been used to assess the performance of the food and beverage industry in both Alberta and Canada in the report. Although both output and inputs grow faster in Alberta than in Canada, Alberta's TFP growth in the
subsector, has benefited from structural change in the industry, the exploitation of economies of scale, and increases in labour productivity. Finally, it is important to note the beneficial impacts that productivity improvement is primary agriculture has on the processing sector, and vice versa. Gains in

When habitat recovery rates on reclaimed sites are considered in conjunction with the overall mine footprint, it suggests that the negative impact of the operation is not trivial with respect to habitat loss.

Temporality in Object Database Management Systems
1998
Technical report TR98-04. Conventional databases represent the state of an enterprise at one particular point in time. That is, they contain only current data. As a database changes, out-of-date information, representing past states of the enterprise, is discarded. However, temporal support is a
requirement posed by many database applications, such as office information systems, engineering databases, and multimedia systems. Most of the research on modeling time has concentrated on the definition of a particular temporal model and its incorporation into a (relational or object-oriented) database
