Abstract:
The purpose of this project was to develop, using Object Oriented Development (OOD), a software tool identified as the Ada Module Description Tool (AMDT). The AMDT provides an automated way to get a module level description of Ada code. A module level description will identify packages, subprograms, objects and type declarations and relationships. This software tool also has the ability to compare Ada source code with a module level description. The comparison shall identify any object, type, subprogram, or package declared in the module level description that does not match the provided sourc

Outcomes of innovative designing are frequently described as enabling us in achieving more desirable futures. How can we design and innovate so as to enable future processes of design and innovation?

Automotive and Tire companies spend extensive amounts of time and money to tune their products through prototype testing at dedicated test facilities. This is mainly due to the limitations in the simulation capabilities that exist today. With greater competence in simulation, comes more control over designs in the initial stages, which in turn lowers the demand on the expensive stage of tuning. The work presented, aims at taking today's simulation capabilities a step forward by integrating models that are best developed in different software interfaces.

It is argued, however, that closer scrutiny reveals a process that was merely interrupted for a considerable period.

Abstract:
Recent research indicates that the Internet (or Net) is currently being used at many post-secondary institutions in support of traditional, classroom-based instruction. From 1994 to 2002, the percentage of post-secondary classes using the Web as a research tool and E-mail as a method of communication has increased almost ten fold. An extensive literature on the evaluation of the Internet as an educational technology has developed in recent years; however, there are some gaps that need to be filled to provide a more complete understanding of the Internet and its use by post-secondary students.

Abstract:
This research discusses the use of Delta in regulating the investment behaviour of the Trustees of Self-Managed Superannuation Funds (SMSFs) who use Exchange Traded Options (ETOs) in their investment strategies. An ETO represents a contract between two parties, giving the taker (the buyer) the right, but not the obligation, to buy or sell a parcel of shares at a predetermined price, on or before a predetermined date, to or from the writer (the seller). It is acceptable for SMSF Trustees to use ETO investments as part of their overall investment strategy, providing that leverage or mere specula

Abstract:
Water is Australia's most precious natural resource. The quality, quantity and availability of this resource is the single factor most limiting agricultural development and sustainability in this country. Since the development of Australia's cotton industry in the 1960's, and the expanding areas of irrigated crop, there has been an increasing demand placed on the limited water resources of the country. Consequently, the cotton industry has been the target of protest from conservation groups, residents of rural townships and others farmers engaged in competing rural sectors. Therefore, cotton f

Abstract:
The objective of this thesis is to develop tools for the analysis and optimization of an iterative receiver. These tools can be applied to most soft-in soft-out (SISO) receiver components. For illustration purposes we consider a multi-user DS-CDMA system with forward error correction that employs iterative multi-user detection based on soft interference cancellation and single user decoding. Optimized power levels combined with adaptive scheduling allows for efficient utilization of receiver resources for heavily loaded systems.¶ Metric transfer analysis has been shown to be an accurate metho

Abstract:
The geometry of pulsar beams is one of the intrinsic properties of neutron stars, governing the pulse-profile phenomenon and other aspects of pulsar astron- omy. With a number of pulsars in our dataset, their beam geometry is derived from the polarisation position angle (PPA) using the simple polar cap emission and dipole field model. This includes the rotating vector model (RVM), for which the solutions can hardly be constrained or fail to be consistent because of the lim- itations of the model itself. The inconsistencies in the results suggest that the initial PPAs can be strongly perturbed
