Understanding and predicting method-level source code changes using commit history data
(2016-10-01)
Software development and software maintenance require a large amount of source
code changes to be made to a software repositories. Any change to a repository can
introduce new resource needs which will cost more time and ...
GURB : the game user research blueprint
(2016-08-01)
With the rise of new platforms, distribution and crowdfunding services, the game
industry is facing fast changes and advances in technology. Game development
studios are under more pressure to create successful games due ...
Influence of dietary interventions on the immune system: an investigation of the impact of omega-3 fatty acids, dietary fermentable materials and high energy diets
(2016-12-01)
Dietary interventions vary in ability to influence immune activity. Separate investigations were conducted to determine the immune impact of omega-3 fatty acids, dietary fermentable materials (DFM) and high energy (HE) ...
The modification of fuel cell-based breath alcohol sensor materials to improve water retention of sensing performance
(2016-03-01)
Fuel cell based breath alcohol sensors (BrASs) are one of the most important tools used by law enforcement today. While these devices are used globally, they all suffer from a common deficiency: reliance on water. The ...
Alloy catalysts for fuel cell-based alcohol sensors
(2016-05-01)
Direct ethanol fuel cells (DEFCs) are attractive from both economic and environmental standpoints for generating renewable energy and powering vehicles and portable electronic devices. The cost and performance of the DEFCs ...
Strategies and applications for creating more memorable passwords
(2016-01-01)
As we continue to learn and grow in an ever evolving technological age, we deepen our
understanding of the importance of authentication. There are many different types of
authentication, each exhibiting their own strengths ...
Mathematical methods for 2D-3D cardiac image registration
(2016-12-01)
We propose a mathematical formulation aimed at intensity-based slice-to-volume registration,
aligning a cross-sectional slice of a 3D volume to a 2D image. The approach is
flexible and can accommodate various regularization ...
Improved 3D modelling of CANDU reactors using transport-fitted diffusion coefficients
(2016-12-01)
To model the neutronic physics behavior of the core in CANDU pressure tube type heavy water reactors with natural-uranium fuel, two levels of calculations are required. Initially, lattice-level transport calculations are ...
A comparison of seated and room-scale virtual reality on medical-based serious games and virtual simulation
(2016-12-01)
Simulation-based training has been widely adopted by healthcare education as a
vital tool in the practice of skills within a safe environment. However, significant cost
and logistical challenges exist within traditional ...
An investigation of land-use impacts on water quality and algal communities in the Nottawasaga River and low-order streams of the Nottawasaga Valley Watershed
(2016-07-01)
The Nottawasaga Valley Watershed (NVW) is a large catchment south of Georgian Bay that drains a primarily agricultural region including one of the largest wetland complexes in Southern Ontario, the Minesing Wetlands (MW). ...
