Abstract:

Phonetic variation as found in various speech styles is a rich area for research on spoken word recognition. Research on spoken word recognition has focused on careful, easily controlled speech styles. This dissertation investigates the processing of the American English Flap. Specifically, it focuses on the effect of reduction on processing. The main question asked in this dissertation is whether listeners adjust their expectations for how segments are realized based on speech style. Even more broadly, how do listeners process or recognize reduced speech? Two specific questions are asked that

Abstract:

People in modern industrialized societies live a blessed life relative to those who do not when it comes to some modern conveniences. While many think nothing of flipping on a light switch or running electric appliances, there are people in third world countries could not imagine such things. As service projects are being undertaken to bring such conveniences to those less fortunate, there often is the harsh reality of a strict budget. An item that commands a large portion of said budget is often the diesel generator used to provide the facility with electricity. Generators serving motor loads

Abstract:

This thesis is concerned with the graph R of all reduced words for the longest element in the Coxeter groups of classical type, the edges representing braid relations. In chapter 2 we consider the equivalence relation on the vertices of R generated by commuting adjacent letters if the corresponding simple reflections commute. An inductive way of describing all of the resulting commutation classes is described. A characterisation of the quiver-compatible commutation classes, couched in terms of letter-multiplicities, is presented in chapter 3. Chapter 4 introduces for each positive root ß an eq

Abstract Some social work leaders in the United States lack strategies to successfully reduce employee turnover, which is detrimental to the profitability of an organization. The purpose of this qualitative single case study was to explore effective strategies that social work professionals used to reduce employee turnover.

Abstract:

The purpose of this dissertation is to elaborate, with specific examples and calculations, on a new refinement of triangular factorization for the loop group of a simple, compact Lie group K, first appearing in Pickrell & Pittman-Polletta 2010. This new factorization allows us to write a smooth map from the unit circle into K (having a triangular factorization) as a triply infinite product of loops, each of which depends on a single complex parameter. These parameters give a set of coordinates on the loop group of K.The order of the factors in this refinement is determined by an infinite sequ

Past research has found that work-family conflict is related to trait mindfulness, a unique disposition due to its amenability to change through training. This longitudinal study incorporated a mindfulness-based intervention including a mindfulness-based workshop and behavioral self-monitoring (BSM) in an attempt to reduce work-family conflict in employees. Trait mindfulness was correlated with work-family conflict across time. The intervention increased participants' trait mindfulness and decreased WIF, but did not reduce FIW.

Abstract:

Part-time work presents a conundrum. Across industrialised countries, there has been significant growth in part-time work as a solution to resolving the diverse interests of employers, workers and families in managing time and resources. However, there are intrinsic disadvantages associated with part-time work; notably with pay and career prospects, which impact the same stakeholders it is intended to benefit. These disadvantages are particularly evident in professional services organisations, due to strong cultural norms of long work hours, single-focused commitment to work and 24x7 availabil

Burnout is a topic that is drawing an increasing amount of attention in the social work field. The compassion and emotional energy that is used daily by these service providers can cause them to experience emotional exhaustion, depersonalization, and reduced personal accomplishment. The effects of burnout are detrimental on several levels. Staff will experience decreased interest and efficiency in their work and may even leave their place of employment. Clients will not receive the help that they require and agencies will suffer from staff turnover and lowered productivity. Utilizing a survey

Abstract:

Welfare programs often attempt to reduce their welfare rolls by pushing recipients into immediate employment, while others provide education and training to people before expecting them to re-enter the job market. In some states, such as California, counties are allowed flexibility in the implementation of welfare programs. This allows the counties to choose to focus on immediate job placement, educating recipients, or a combination of the two.

Abstract:

Critically ill patients in an intensive care unit (ICU) often require mechanical ventilation (MV). Humidification systems are essential devices for MV which replace the natural heat and moisture exchange process of inspired gases. A heat and moisture exchanger (HME) is commonly used for the humidification of MV patients in ICU. In contrast, a heated humidifier (HH) that is a more complicated device is used only for prolonged MV patients because of its higher cost and nurse workload. However, HME may increase the breathing workload of patients, thereby inflicting damage to their respiratory fun

Abstract:

Self-adaptive systems are capable of autonomously adjusting their behavior at runtime to accomplish particular adaptation goals. The most common way to realize self-adaption is using a feedback loop(s) which contains four actions: collect runtime data from the system and its environment, analyze the collected data, decide if an adaptation plan is required, and act according to the adaptation plan for achieving the adaptation goals. Existing approaches achieve the adaptation goals by using formal methods, and exhaustively verify all the available adaptation options, i.e., adaptation space. Howe

Abstract:

Packrat parsing is a top-down, recursive descent parsing technique that uses backtracking and has a guaranteed linear parse time. Conventional backtracking parsers suffer from exponential parse times in the worst case due to re-evaluating redundant results. This is avoided in packrat parsers with the use of memoization. However, memoization causes packrat parsers memory consumption to be linearly proportional to the input string, as opposed to linearly proportional to the maximum recursion depth for conventional parsing techniques. The objective of this thesis is to implement a packrat parser

Self-adaptive systems have limited time to adjust their configurations whenever their adaptation goals, i.e., quality requirements, are violated due to some runtime uncertainties.

Existing formal analysis approaches find the best adaptation option by analyzing the entire adaptation space.

Thesis (MEd)--Stellenbosch University, 2012.<br>ENGLISH ABSTRACT: In this thesis I analyse policies and strategies to reduce poverty through education, and the focus is on global and national policies and strategies and I conduct a small-scale investigation into policies and strategies that exist at a local level (local is the Cape Winelands District Municipality). Poverty is one of the core problems facing many South Africans, and by using critical theory as my research methodology I present a different way of thinking about poverty.
