• Bounded Width Dichotomies in Constraint Satisfaction Problems 

  Liprandi, Maximiliano (Science, University of Calgary, 2018-06-07)

  In this thesis we examine the connection between structures with bounded width, polymorphisms and pebble games. There has been extensive work on trying to prove the dichotomy conjecture for finite structures, namely, the ...

• Examining the Effects of a Knowledge-Based Intervention about Autism Spectrum Disorder on the Knowledge, Empathy, and Conative Attitudes of Typically Developing Students 

  Johnson, Sarah Emily (Werklund School of Education, University of Calgary, 2018-05-28)

• Solutions of the Equation of Motion with Absorption for some Common Sources 

  Sun, Ye (Science, University of Calgary, 2018-06-06)

  Different kinds of solutions of the equation of motion (EOM) in a perfectly elastic medium have been derived and also have been widely recognized. However, in fact, we can hardly find an ideal medium without absorption. ...

• Diverse Structures and Strategies of 5′ Exon Recognition in Group II Introns 

  Jarding, Ashley Marie (Science, University of Calgary, 2018-06-05)

  Group II introns are a family of mobile elements found in bacteria and bacteria-derived organelles, which are thought to have a direct evolutionary link to spliceosomal introns. These introns can self-splice in vitro thanks ...

• Assessment of Conformity: Instrument Development 

  Al Harbi, Nouf Sulaiman (Cumming School of Medicine, University of Calgary, 2018-06-04)

  Current educational systems, including medical programs, incorporate learning in groups. However, subtle social factors functioning within these groups can influence learning and professional development. Thus, these ...

• Exploring brain cancer pathogenesis in a novel mouse model of glioblastoma (GBM) 

  Bohm, Alexandra Katerina (Science, University of Calgary, 2018-06-08)

  The molecular architecture of glioblastoma (GBM) has been well documented, but the cause of the disease, especially the primary adult form, remains elusive. Although it has been hypothesized that amplification of ...

• Storing Quantum Correlations in Different Rare Earth Ion-doped Solids. A Tale of Two Memories. 

  Davidson, Jacob H. (Science, University of Calgary, 2018-06-04)

  Quantum networks of the future will be required to span the globe and interconnect many different real world systems employed by different commercial, academic, and government users. Thus, an important measure of such a ...
