▼ Development of automatic text correction systems has a long history in natural language processing research. This thesis considers the problem of correcting writing mistakes made by non-native English speakers. We address several types of errors commonly exhibited by non-native English writers – misuse of articles, prepositions, noun number, and verb properties – and build a robust, state-of-the-art system that combines machine learning methods and linguistic knowledge. The proposed approach is distinguished from other related work in several respects. First, several machine learning methods are compared to determine which methods are most effective for this problem. Earlier evaluations, because they are based on incomparable data sets, have questionable conclusions. Our results reverse these conclusions and pave the way for the next contribution. Using the important observation that mistakes made by non-native writers are systematic, we develop models that utilize knowledge about error regularities with minimal annotation costs. Our approach differs from earlier ones that either built models that had no knowledge about error regularities or required a lot of annotated data. Next, we develop special strategies for correcting errors on open-class words. These errors, while being very prevalent among non-native English speakers, are the least studied and are not well-understood linguistically. The challenges that these mistakes present are addressed in a linguistically-informed approach. Finally, a novel global approach to error correction is proposed that considers grammatical dependencies among error types and addresses these via joint learning and joint inference. The systems and techniques described in this thesis are evaluated empirically and competitively in the context of several shared tasks, where they have demonstrated superior performance. In particular, our system ranked first in the most prestigious competition in the natural language processing field, the CoNLL-2013 shared task on text correction. Based on the analysis of this system, four design principles that are crucial for building a state-of-the-art error correction system are identified.

▼ In Arabic speaking countries like Saudi Arabia, English is considered as the most important second language to be taught and used. Unfortunately, a sizeable percentage of students there appear to still have significant difficulty learning English, possibly due to the difficulty in finding sufficiently qualified teachers. This type of problem is self-perpetuating since the taught students might become weak teachers in the future also. This thesis aims to address the problem of helping Arabic students to improve their writing in English and to help them learn so that they will make fewer mistakes in the future and possibly become better teachers themselves. It focuses on creating methods to find the most typical mistakes made by those Arabian students in their writing, mistakes which were determined by the author from both self-observation and a review of related research findings (The author also saw these mistakes in the sentences used by subjects who tried pilot versions of the software). The result of this work is usable software that is able to detect, correct, and provide grammatical rules related to the most common mistakes found in the written sentences of the target Arabian students, when the sentences are in the present tense. These types are errors related to the following rules: (1) letters capitalization rules, (2) adj-noun ordering in the sentence, (3) proper use of the verb to be, (4) punctuation placement rules, (5) the use of the articles “a” and “an” within a sentence, and (6) rules for the possessive case. The software was evaluated using the author’s observation on the use of the software by 22 Arabian students and by letting them afterwards to complete a usability and usefulness survey. The results of the evaluation suggest that Arabs will mostly like how the software treats punctuation placing errors. Students also advised the author that it would be beneficial for the software to address a broader range of typical mistakes. This work is the first to create software specifically for Arabic students of English to help them to find their grammatical errors, provide suggested correction, and teach the student the grammatical rules needed to correct his/her sentence.

▼ Malignant melanoma is one of the deadliest forms of skin cancer and number of cases showed rapid increase in Europe, America, and Australia over the last few decades. Australia has one of the highest rates of skin cancer in the world, at nearly four times the rates in Canada, the US and the UK. Cancer treatment costs constitute more 7.2% of health system costs. However, a recovery rate of around 95% can be achieved if melanoma is detected at an early stage. Early diagnosis is obviously dependent upon accurate assessment by a medical practitioner. The variations of diagnosis are sufficiency large and there is a lack of detail of the test methods. This thesis investigates the methods for automated analysis of skin images to develop improved algorithms and to extend the functionality of the existing methods used in various stages of the automated diagnostic system. This in the long run can provide an alternative basis for researchers to experiment new and existing methodologies for skin cancer detection and diagnosis to help the medical practitioners. The objective is to have a detailed investigation for the requirements of automated skin cancer diagnostic systems, improve and develop relevant segmentation, feature selection and classification methods to deal with complex structures present in both dermoscopic/digital images and histopathological images. During the course of this thesis, several algorithms were developed. These algorithms were used in skin cancer diagnosis studies and some of them can also be applied in wider machine learning areas. The most important contributions of this thesis can be summarized as below: - Developing new segmentation algorithms designed specifically for skin cancer images including digital images of lesions and histopathalogical images with attention to their respective properties. The proposed algorithm uses a two-stage approach. Initially coarse segmentation of lesion area is done based on histogram analysis based orientation sensitive fuzzy C Mean clustering algorithm. The result of stage 1 is used for the initialization of a level set based algorithm developed for detecting finer differentiating details. The proposed algorithms achieved true detection rate of around 93% for external skin lesion images and around 88% for histopathological images. - Developing adaptive differential evolution based feature selection and parameter optimization algorithm. The proposed method is aimed to come up with an efficient approach to provide good accuracy for the skin cancer detection, while taking care of number of features and parameter tuning of feature selection and classification algorithm, as they all play important role in the overall analysis phase. The proposed method was also tested on 10 standard datasets for different kind of cancers and results shows improved performance for all the datasets compared to various state-of the art methods. - Proposing a parallelized knowledge based learning model which can make better use of the differentiating features along with increasing the…

Zdravstvena dejavnost je področje z visokim tveganjem zaradi neželenih dogodkov, ki nastanejo kot posledica procesa zdravljenja in ne bolezni. Ugotoviti smo želeli stanje na področju varnosti pacientov skozi poglede zdravstvenih delavcev v zdravstveni negi in njihovo videnje le-tega v okviru timskega dela, komunikacije, pogostosti nastanka in sporočanja napak, odnosa med nadrejenimi in podrejenimi in ne nazadnje odgovornosti do pacientov. Raziskava temelji na kvantitativni metodi dela. Izvedena je bila v dveh slovenskih bolnišnicah. Podatki so bili zbrani s strukturiranim AHRQ-vprašalnikom in lastnim delom vprašalnika. Vzorec je sestavljalo nekaj manj kot 400 medicinskih sester različne stopnje izobrazbe. Večina respondentov vidi vzrok za ogrožanje varnosti pacientov v sistemu dela in ne v zdravstvenem osebju. Dobra četrtina anketiranih zdravstvenih delavcev je navedla, da je že kdaj naredila napako v škodo pacientu, kar so tudi priznali in zaradi tega bili šikanirani. Velika večina anketiranih zdarvstvenih delavcev meni, da je storjenih več napak, kot se jih dejansko prizna. Kultura varnosti pacientov je kompleksen pojav, ki ne nastane čez noč, a moramo ozavestiti dejstvo, da lahko preprečimo marsikatero zdravstveno napako. Ugotovili smo, da je stanje varnosti pacientov ocenjeno s povprečno oceno 3,6, kar je nekje med sprejemljivo in zelo dobro, kar pa ne pomeni, da ne moremo stremeti k še boljšemu rezultatu.

A health care is a high-risk area due to adverse events resulting from the healing process rather than the disease itself. The purpose of this master thesis is to examine the area of patient safety from the perspective of the healthcare professionals by means of the following elements: teamwork, communication, frequency of occurrence and reporting of errors, relationship between superiors and subordinates as well as responsibility to patients. The study uses quantitative research methods to collect and analyze the data. It was performed in the two slovenian hospital. Data were collected through a structured AHRQ questionnaire and through personally developed part of the questionnaire. The sample consisted of just under 400 nurses of varying degrees. The majority of the respondents consider the cause for patient safety in the work system rather than in the healthcare staff. More than a quarter of the surveyed health workers stated that they had ever made a mistake to the detriment of the patient, which they also admitted and were because of that slightly more chicaned.The vast majority of health professionals believe that more mistakes are made than are actually acknowledged. A patient safety culture is a complex phenomenon that does not occur overnight, but we need to be aware of the fact that we can prevent many health errors. We have found that the patient's safety status is rated at an average score of 3.6, which is somewhere between acceptable and very good

nevertheless this does not mean that we cannot strive for a better result.

▼ Background: The respiratory compensation point (RC) approximates the lowest intensity of unsustainably difficult exercise, making it an important measure for endurance athletes. Thus, accurate determination of RC is important to athletes. There are many methods to determine RC, but few large studies to date have compared multiple automated methods. Previous studies have shown that rates of detection of RC (i.e. determinate cases) vary. The purpose of this study was to compare four common methods used to detect RC: Jones-Molitoris (JM), Orr, Beaver’s V-slope (Beaver), and the Dmax method. Methods: Recreationally active college students (n = 131, 45 males, 86 females) completed 2-mile time trials and graded exercise tests both before and after training for a marathon. The four methods were used to detect RC (as a % of VO2max) from the VE vs. VCO2 slope. The number of determinate RC cases were recorded for each method at pre and at post. Determinate counts of RC were expressed as a percentage, were compared pre to post with Fisher’s exact tests, and were simulated with bootstrap resampling. Average differences between methods were compare using a linear mixed effects model (LMEM) with data from participants who displayed RC at both pre and post testing for at least one of the four methods. Comparisons between methods and with 2-mile performance were also compared by correlations and with limits of agreement (LOA) plots. Results: The order of determinate rates from highest to lowest was JM, Dmax, Orr, and Beaver. Fisher’s exact tests produced odds ratios significantly higher than 1 for all but Beaver. Histograms of bootstrap resampling showed large overlap for all but the Beaver method. LMEM analysis showed that JM predicted significantly higher RC than Beaver and Dmax, but not Orr. All methods were significantly correlated with one another at both timepoints. LOA were wide. Conclusions: Beaver detects RC more infrequently than other methods. It is unknown if the higher %VO2max at RC predicted by JM is an overestimate. Although all methods highly and significantly correlate to one another, they have wide LOA. A better automated method may combine the results of several methods.

▼ Network management will benefit from automated tools based upon formal methods. In these tools, the algorithm for computing reachability is the core algorithm for verifying network properties in the data plane. This dissertation presents efficient algorithms for computing reachability and verifying network properties for a single network with both packet filters and transformers, and for interconnected networks. For computing port to port reachability in a network, we present a new formal method for a new tool, Atomic Predicates (AP) Verifier, which is much more time and space efficient than existing tools. Given a set of predicates representing packet filters, AP Verifier computes a set of atomic predicates, which is minimum and unique. The use of atomic predicates dramatically speeds up computation of network reachability. AP Verifier also includes algorithms to process network update events and check compliance with network policies and properties in real time. Packet transformers are widely used in Internet service provider networks, datacenter infrastructures, and layer-2 networks. Existing network verification tools do not scale to such networks with large numbers of different transformers. We present a new tool, AP+ Verifier, based upon a new algorithm for computing atomic predicates for networks with both packet filters and transformers. For performance evaluation, we use network datasets with different types of transformers (i.e., MPLS tunnels, IP-in-IP tunnels, and NATs). We found that AP+ Verifier is more time and space efficient than prior tools by orders of magnitude. The Internet consists a large collection of networks. To debug reachability problems, a network operator often asks operators of other networks for help by telephone or email. We present a new protocol, COVE, and an efficient data structure for automating the exchange of data plane reachability information between networks in a business relationship. COVE is designed to improve a network's views of forward and reverse reachability with partial deployment in mind. COVE is scalable to very large networks in the Internet. We illustrate applications of COVE to perform useful network management tasks, which cannot be done effectively using existing methods and tools.

▼ Ribonucleic acid (RNA) is an essential molecule, which carries out a wide variety of functions within the cell, from its crucial involvement in protein synthesis to catalysing biochemical reactions and regulating gene expression. Such diverse functional repertoire is indebted to complex structures that RNA can adopt and its flexibility as an interacting molecule. It has become possible to experimentally measure these two crucial aspects of RNA regulatory role with such technological advancements as next-generation sequencing (NGS). NGS methods can rapidly obtain the nucleotide sequence of many molecules in parallel. Designing experiments, where only the desired parts of the molecule (or specific parts of the transcriptome) are sequenced, allows to study various aspects of RNA biology. Analysis of NGS data is insurmountable without computational methods. One such experimental method is RNA structure probing, which aims to infer RNA structure from sequencing chemically altered transcripts. RNA structure probing data is inherently noisy, affected both by technological biases and the stochasticity of the underlying process. Most existing methods do not adequately address the issue of noise, resorting to heuristics and limiting the informativeness of their output. In this thesis, a statistical pipeline was developed for modelling RNA structure probing data, which explicitly captures biological variability, provides automated bias-correcting strategies, and generates a probabilistic output based on experimental measurements. The output of our method agrees with known RNA structures, can be used to constrain structure prediction algorithms, and remains robust to reduced sequence coverage, thereby increasing sensitivity of the technology. Another recent experimental innovation maps RNA-protein interactions at very high temporal resolution, making it possible to study rapid binding events happening on a minute time scale. In this thesis, a non-parametric algorithm was developed for identifying significant changes in RNA-protein binding time-series between different conditions. The method was applied to novel yeast RNA-protein binding time-course data to study the role of RNA degradation in stress response. It revealed pervasive changes in the binding to the transcriptome of the yeast transcription termination factor Nab3 and the cytoplasmic exoribonuclease Xrn1 under nutrient stress. This challenged the common assumption of viewing transcriptional changes as the major driver of changes in RNA expression during stress and highlighted the importance of degradation. These findings inspired a dynamical model for RNA expression, where transcription and degradation rates are modelled using RNA-protein binding time-series data.

▼ New trends in manufacturing highlight the growing use of composite materials to produce lightweight, high performance structures. This requires the design stage to account for complex manufacturing constraints, and as industry begins to move towards automated manufacturing of composites, the more complex manufacturing constraints can introduce severe limitations to the design space, reducing the opportunity for designers to optimise a product. To address these limitations, this research proposes strategies for implementing design for manufacture specifically accounting for automated manufacture of composite structures. As a composite design develops, more detail is added, increasing the design fidelity. Typically design for manufacturing practices are only applied when the design fidelity is detailed enough to see individual plies. However, by implementing design for manufacturing practice at earlier stages of the design, when the design fidelity is low and design change is easy to implement, the greatest performance and manufacturing gains can be achieved. This research aims to develop a design process that uses digital technology to facilitate design for automated manufacture for composite structures. This research uses a systematic approach to create a generic design process and supporting tools, capable of identifying the key manufacturing constraints, and accounting for them at the earliest possible stages of the design. The proposed design process uses a strategy to apply design for manufacture using digital tools, and identifies actions required to enable automated composite manufacturing. The development of the design process is guided by the capture of the current industrial design practices. The proposed process is validated through the design and manufacture of an industrial demonstration structure, produced using an automated composite manufacturing process. The results from validation confirm the hypothesis that it is possible to have a generic design process to support the design for automated manufacturing of composites components.

We can classify several quite different calculi for automated reasoning in first-order logic as instantiation-based methods (IMs). Broadly speaking, unlike in traditional calculi such as resolution where the first-order satisfiability problem is tackled by deriving logical conclusions, IMs attempt to reduce the first-order satisfiability problem to propositional satisfiability by intelligently instantiating clauses. The Inst-Gen-Eq method is an instantiation-based calculus which is complete for first-order clause logic modulo equality. Its distinctive feature is that it combines first-order reasoning with efficient ground satisfiability checking, which is delegated in a modular way to any state-of-the-art ground solver for satisfiability modulo theories (SMT). The first-order reasoning modulo equality employs a superposition-style calculus which generates the instances needed by the ground solver to refine a model of a ground abstraction or to witness unsatisfiability. The thesis addresses the main issue in the Inst-Gen-Eq method, namely efficient extraction of instances, while providing powerful redundancy elimination techniques. To that end we introduce a novel labelled unit superposition calculus with sets, AND/OR trees and ordered binary decision diagrams (OBDDs) as labels. The different label structures permit redundancy elimination each to a different extent. We prove completeness of redundancy elimination from labels and further integrate simplification inferences based on term rewriting. All presented approaches, in particular the three labelled calculi are implemented in the iProver-Eq system and evaluated on standard benchmark problems.

How can we be sure that software which we entrust more and more vital tasks to is free of flaws? Incidents of software maliciously being exploited or accidentally failing have had consequences that range from severe financial losses to threats to the lives of people. Good engineering is just a weak safeguard, and in particular in an ever faster paced and more complex world no guarantee that no flaw in the final product has been overlooked. Only formal verification can prove that a program will always behave as specified or that a specification is actually without loopholes. Unfortunately, verification of real world applications is tantamount to finding a needle in a haystack. The problems are too large and too complex to tackle for any one person even with all human intuition and creativity. This is where automated reasoning comes in. It offers a mechanisation of the process of finding logical conclusions, sifting through the haystack and in relevant practical cases actually finding a needle. Then, either defects in the implementation or specification can be fixed, or the reliability of the software has been formally established. This research is focused on a recent approach to automated reasoning that has already shown success in a range of cases. The goal is to allow specifications to use more expressive theories, leading to more concise formulations, in turn making the…

▼ The past three decades of synaptic research have provided new insights into synapse biology. While synapses are still considered the fundamental connectors between the nerve cells in the central nervous system, they are no longer seen as simple neuron-to-neuron contacts. In fact, the estimated 100 trillion of human synapses are extremely complex, diverse and capable of performing sophisticated computational operations giving rise to advanced repertoires of cognitive and organic behaviours. These intricate synaptic properties mean that existing methodologies for quantifying and characterising synapses are inadequate. Yet, understanding of synapse biology is crucial to deciphering human pathology as disruptions in synapse numbers, architecture and function have already been linked to many human brain disorders. The purpose of this PhD was to evaluate a novel, high-throughput synaptic protein quantification method at a single synapse resolution in human post-mortem brain tissue. The method has already been successfully tested in our laboratory in genetically engineered mice, whereby synapses have been systematically quantified across a large number of areas to generate the first molecular maps of synapses, the synaptome maps. In this project, methods have been developed to label human brain tissue with postsynaptic density protein 95 (PSD-95), the most common postsynaptic protein. We describe the use of PSD-95 combined with confocal microscopy and computational image analysis to quantify synaptic puncta immunofluorescence (IF) parameters in the human brain. In the first part of this study, the new method was used to quantify PSD-95 IF across selected 20 human brain regions to generate first PSD-95 human synaptome map. In the second part, PSD-95 IF was systematically assessed across 16 hippocampal subregions. Finally, we confirmed that our novel synaptic quantification method was sensitive to hippocampal synaptic losses in patients with Alzheimer's Disease (AD). Such a high degree of systematic synapse quantification has not previously been reported in human brain tissue. Our method is a promising approach for synaptic protein quantification in tissue with several potential applications in diagnosis and development of therapeutics for neurological and psychiatric disorders.

▼ Current Design for Assembly (DFA) methods and tools require extensive amounts and types of user inputs to complete the analysis. Since the methods require extensive amounts and types of inputs, certain issues arise: the analysis can become tedious, time consuming, error prone, and not repeatable. These issues eventually lead to the DFA methods being used as a redesign tool or not being implemented at all. The research presented in this thesis addresses the current DFA limitations and issues by developing and implementing an automated assembly time prediction tool that: extracts explicitly defined connections from SolidWorks assembly models, determines the structural complexity vector of the connections, and inputs the complexity vector into trained artificial neural networks (ANNs) to predict an assembly time. The automated assembly time prediction tool does not require any user inputs other than a mated assembly model. To complete the analysis with the automated tool, the user has to open up the assembly model and click on the developed SW add-in button. Since no additional inputs are required to complete the analysis, the results are completely repeatable when given the same SolidWorks assembly model to evaluate. The results in this thesis show that the developed tool can predict a product's assembly time with as little as 4% error or with as much as +68% error depending on the ANN training set used. Eight different ANN training sets are tested in this thesis, the results show that larger more variable ANN training sets typically predict assembly times with less percent error than smaller less variable ANN training sets. Since the tool extracts mates from assembly models, the sensitivity of the method with respect to different mating styles is also investigated. It is determined that the mating style does have an effect on the predicted assembly time, but this effect is typically within the normal variation ranges of existing DFA methods.

Normally, it takes a substantial amount of operators time to stop the process and compare the quality of the produced piece with a surface roughness gauge. This manual process does not guarantee a consistent quality of the surface and is subject to human error and dependent upon the subjective opinion of the expert. Current advances in image processing, computer vision, and machine learning have created a path towards an automated surface finish inspection increasing the automation level of the whole process even further than it is now. In this thesis work, we propose a deep learning approach to replicate human judgment without using a surface roughness gauge. We used a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) to train a surface finish classifier. Because of data scarcity, we generated our own image dataset of aluminum pieces produced from turning and boring operations on a Computer Numerical Control (CNC) lathe, which consists of a total of 980 training images, 160 validation images, and 140 test images. Considering the limited dataset and the computational cost of training deep neural networks from scratch, we applied transfer learning technique to models pre-trained on the publicly available ImageNet benchmark dataset. We used PyTorch Deep Learning framework and both CPU and GPU to train ResNet18 CNN. The training on CPU took 1h21min55s with a test accuracy of 97.14% while the training on GPU took 1min47s with a test accuracy = 97.86%. We used Keras API that runs on top of TensorFlow to train a MobileNet model. The training using Colaboratory’s GPU took 1h32m14s with an accuracy of 98.57%. The deep CNN models provided surprisingly high accuracy missclassifying only a few of 140 testing images. The MobileNet model allowed to run the inference efficiently on mobile devices. The affordable and easy-to-use solution provides a viable new method of automated surface inspection systems (ASIS).

▼ Research on the motivation of teachers of English as a Second Language (ESL) has been scarce and fragmented. This study aims to bridge the gap in the research by investigating the motivation of ESL teachers employed in private English language schools and other state tertiary institutions in New Zealand. The rationale for the study comes from a need to understand, first, the key motivational factors involved, and second, what measures can be adopted by both teachers themselves and by the institutions they work for to sustain and nurture teacher motivation, ultimately in order to facilitate positive outcomes for students. The underlying theoretical assumption of the study was that motivation could be investigated by employing self-determination theory, which draws primarily on an intrinsic/extrinsic distinction (Dörnyei, 2001). Accordingly, the study was guided by three research questions which aimed to: 1) identify factors affecting teachers’ motivation; 2) examine teachers’ degree of motivation; and 3) elicit from teachers any measures that might sustain or nurture their motivation. To answer these research questions the study employed a mixed-method approach. Both quantitative and qualitative data were collected through the implementation of 72 questionnaires, with seven respondents agreeing to keep a journal. Three semi-structured interviews were also conducted with the journal keepers. The findings of the study provide some insights into what factors are important in affecting ESL teachers’ motivation and what measures are likely to sustain or nurture their motivation. The study found that intrinsic factors were more important than extrinsic factors in affecting teaching motivation. Intrinsic aspects of work, including helping students to learn English, involvement in professional training and personal enjoyment were key factors. However extrinsic factors such as management policy and work autonomy also played significant roles. Though the degree of teacher motivation could not be ascertained by the present study, it was found that teachers were dissatisfied with lack of work autonomy and job security. Regarding measures to sustain or nurture motivation, teachers asked for more professional training and personal challenges in their work, less administrative work, more involvement in management policy and more respect from management. The implications of the study offer suggestions for ESL teachers and for the management of language schools on how to create a better working environment for facilitating positive student outcomes. It is hoped the study also stimulates further research on ESL teachers’ motivation, in a range of contexts, the sum of which will be of benefit to students, teachers, stakeholders and the whole community.

▼ Adult language learners face negative sociocultural conditions that affect their language learning investment, learners’ commitment to learning with the understanding that they will receive a return on their investment (Norton Peirce, 1995; Norton, 2013). Understanding what language learners’ experience in their learning contexts is important to improving adult learners’ language development (Kern & Schultz, 2005) and pedagogical practices in language education. The construct of imagined communities (ICs) is a theory of second language studies to understand adult language learners’ investment which involves the target language communities that learners aspire to as they learn a language. The purpose of this mixed methods study was to examine the ICs of individual and groups of adult English as a Second Language (ESL) and Spanish as a Foreign Language (SFL) language learners in order to identify potential pedagogy for the two contexts of language learning. The study is framed in an interpretation of four dimensions embedded in ICs theory and Gee’s (1996; 2001) theory of Discourse communities, and uses a convergent parallel mixed methods design (Plano Clark & Creswell, 2011). The qualitative strand, interviews and journals, revealed that SFL learners tended to have future or travel related ICs and ESL learners tended to have current context ICs or career ICs, likely due to differences in access to native speakers within their different learning contexts. Face-to-face speaking interaction was valued most, but SFL learners’ limited access to Spanish speakers was a challenge. There were many nonlinguistic skills that learners found essential to reaching their ICs, such as confidence or content knowledge, a dimension not accounted in the a priori four dimensions. The quantitative strand, an online survey, revealed that out of the four dimensions on the survey—access/barriers, social relationships/distance, capital gains, and language domains—capital gains (i.e., reasons to invest) were most agreed upon. Further, SFL learners were more confident in their value as a multilingual in their IC. ESL beginners were the most likely to agree or disagree as a group. ESL advanced learners were more confident in their language skills and hard work. Learners in all groups were neutral or disagreed about changing one’s behavior/beliefs to fit into their ICs.The integration strand used corpus analysis and joint displays to examine corroborative and contrastive data among strands and of five participants who completed both strands. This analysis led to pedagogical recommendations for ICs (e.g., a research assignment that asks the learner to research the entire identity kit of their ICs). Advanced learners may find ICs pedagogy most suitable given their greater proficiency and better understanding of their language context and development. Learners may increase their investment in language learning and power over their learning if they are aware of ICs, the characteristics of those groups, and how to gain membership. By integrating this… Advisors/Committee Members: Ai, Haiyang (Committee Chair).

▼ The concept of learner autonomy (LA) in second/foreign language education has been the central focus for many researchers (Benson, 2007, 2011, 2013; Holec, 1981; Gu & Nguyen, 2013; Little, 2007, 2009 and others) and has become a part of mainstream practice of language education in some educational contexts; however, there is still a high interest in researching language learner autonomy and ways to foster it. Partially, this renewed interest is due to advances in technology and pedagogy such as self-access centers, distance learning, blended learning and Computer Assisted Language Learning (CALL) in general and changes in educational policies (Benson 2011, 2013). Modern language learners are exposed to various choices in their language education such as numerous learning modes and a variety of language learning resources. However, this change means that learners must be capable of making informed decisions about their language education and taking some control over it in order to become successful and maximize their learning experience. There are examples of autonomous learning programs which place autonomy at the center, worldwide. Recently, the Center of English as a Second Language (CESL) at the University of Arizona (UA) created and implemented a new educational practice, Program for Intentional Learning (PIL). The goal of this program is to foster LA as well as equip CESL students with knowledge, skills, tools, and resources to be successful in both language learning and their future American college education. PIL is a hybrid program in terms of combining different approaches to fostering LA: resource-based, technology-based, curriculum-based, learner-based, and teacher-based (Benson, 2011).Responding to Benson's (2011) and Nguyen's (2012) call for more rigor in research on LA and educational interventions to promote LA, this dissertation follows the guidelines proposed by Nguyen (2012): a) having a clear operationalized definition of LA, (b) implementing both quantitative and qualitative research methods, and (c) piloting and validating tools. This dissertation examines the effectiveness of the PIL program in terms of its capacity to foster LA and to help CESL students to become more successful in learning English. The evaluation of the program was conducted as a multiple-case study of four participants with a mixed-method research design. The present study draws upon a main survey which measures a degree of LA as pre- and post-test, interviews with case study participants and their instructors, learning diary, and action plan comparison. Even though the comparison of pre- and post-survey scores revealed that only two case study participants had a significant change towards greater LA, all four participants reported changes in their learning behaviors. These changes point to a higher degree of LA, and all participants shared a positive overall evaluation of the PIL workshops. The study suggests that this type of educational intervention to promote LA can be effective, especially in developing metacognitive… Advisors/Committee Members: Panferov, Suzanne (advisor), Ariew, Robert (committeemember), Ferdinandt, Nicholas (committeemember), Waugh, Linda (committeemember), Panferov, Suzanne (committeemember).

▼ This three-article dissertation explores the first year of a sheltered university bridge program (also commonly known as "pathway" programs-see Winkle, 2011) for ESL students at a large public university in the American southwest. "Sheltering" is the practice of offering "academic courses taught in the second language" where "native and non-native [...] students are not mixed in any one class" (Snow & Brinton, 1984, p. 8), a model commonly found in K-12 settings (Echevarria & Graves, 1998; Freeman, Freeman & Gonzalez, 1987; Weinhouse, 1986), though there are sheltered programs in university settings (see, for example, the University of Ottawa Program-Burger, Weinberg & Wesche, 2013). The labels "bridge" and "pathway" refer to pre-matriculation programs that "feature a hybrid of credit-bearing coursework and instruction in English language and academic skills" (Redden, 2010, para 1). Bridge and Pathway Program (BPP) curricula typically follow the adjunct model in which ESL courses are linked with mainstream, unsheltered university courses, with the ESL course providing support. The model in the current study follows the sheltered convention of ESL-only cohorts, but adds the adjunct convention of offering linked support. As international student interest in studying at U.S. universities has grown over recent decades (Open Doors Report, 2015), a subset of international students has emerged that may have lower-than-institutional-benchmark English proficiency for admission based on exams like the Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL) or the International English Language Testing System (IELTS) exam. BPPs primarily serve this subset of students by offering non-testing curricular paths (linked ESL/university courses) to full matriculation that focus on "achievement, as opposed to proficiency alone" (Dooey, 2010, p. 185). One can expect that BPPS will continue to proliferate given that they bring in previously inadmissible international enrollees to add to the now essential revenue stream that international students represent for universities (Andrade, 2006; Marshall, 2005; Redden, 2010; 2014). This dissertation adds to a growing body of recent research (e.g. Dooey, 2010; Fiocco, 2006; Redden, 2010; 2014, Winkle, 2011) about these models. Article 1 (Appendix A): The Past, Present, and Future of Combined ESL/University Study Programs: From Ad Hoc ESL Interventions to Bridge and Pathway Programs. This article is both a critical literature review and "state-of-the-field" piece (Canagarajah, 2006) that situates the evolution of postsecondary ESL support historically. It explores how postsecondary ESL has gone from an ad hoc, situational endeavor focused on remediating language deficiencies to a multifaceted field of program offerings replete with varying curricular models and dedicated faculty and recruiting structures, a field that has evolved into current BPPs.

▼ Global dissemination of scientific findings is imperative for scientific advancement. However, the domination of English as an international language of science (EILS) has placed a potentially inequitable burden on multilingual periphery scholars attempting to disseminate their research findings in indexed scientific journals. While such scholars have been the focus of much recent research into this English for research publication purposes (ERPP), little empirical research has taken place in Latin America. This instrumental case study examines the experiences of Mexican scientists via an academic writing for publication course (AWC) delivered in Canada and Mexico between 2011 and 2013. This study attempts to better understand scientists’ perspectives on the growing expectations of publishing their research in English, their challenges to achieving publication of research articles in indexed scientific journals, and their perceptions of the efficacy of an AWC at addressing these challenges. Rich, triangulated survey and interview data point to a grudging acceptance of the growing expectations for publishing in English as well as a widespread perception among Mexican scientists of bias against them at international scientific journals. Further findings include a comprehensive list of emerging (PhD student) and established (faculty) scientists’ ERPP challenges as well as improved scholar confidence following an intensive AWC. Critical interpretation of findings leads to discussion of participant perceptions of EILS and ERPP within a market of linguistic exchange where asymmetrical power relations and pervasive ideologies of language underscore significant barriers to multilingual scholars achieving a fuller connection to their desired scientific discourse communities. Implications stemming from the study findings include critical, pragmatic suggestions for those involved in the support, production, revision, and adjudication of scientific writing for publication at Mexico University (pseudonym) as well as suggestions for future research avenues into the complex role(s) of English and ERPP instruction in the global production of scientific knowledge.

▼ This research investigates the role of public libraries in building communities and cross-cultural citizenship through provision of equitable information resources and services to English as Additional Language (EAL) speakers, particularly in metropolitan Perth, Western Australia. The rapidly changing demographic profile of Western Australia is producing an ever increasing diversity of people who need to access information in order to thrive in their new community. However, access to these information services pose challenges to users who lack competency in language, computer and general literacy, while the increasing diversity in the local population creates widely divergent competencies in information seeking skills among library clients. Diversity, which has become evident in many contemporary communities, unveils a wide range of information seeking skills, which varies from individuals who are illiterate (often from an agrarian background) and others who are highly educated with substantial English language and computer skills. In this research, the concept of equity in the provision of library services for EAL speakers was investigated by reviewing the library environment in Perth, Western Australia from the perspective of library staff and EAL clients. In-depth interviews were conducted with participants from across various EAL backgrounds as to their knowledge, understanding and current usage of library services. The interview sessions identified the extent of user acceptance of these services and the factors which indicated levels of perceived equity of these library services. The findings from the responses of the public library staff and EAL speakers revealed a complex and diverse local library environment. The public library system, in Western Australia traditionally modelled to serve English language clientele, is yet to fully recognise the presence of the multicultural clientele in its library service provision. Thus, the shift in public library perspectives towards service provision for diverse ethnic groups is evident in isolation but not in adherence to a transparent, consistent government policy which filters down to the local libraries as a guide for normal practices. The EAL speakers’ responses revealed a dire need for English language and computer skills education for some ethnic groups, in order to facilitate their public library access. The findings revealed that some of the EAL groups are unaware of the public library system, its intrinsic value or its culture including that the services are free and offered in a democratic and safe space. Some of the EAL groups also distrust government entities and figures of authority per se as officials symbolise maltreatment of their families and ethnic groups in their countries of origin. Reliance on natives from their own communities, revealed within the interview data, has led to an emergence of bonding social capital tendencies and limited integration with the host culture. The public library is strategically located to draw diverse individuals from its…

La thèse s'articule autour du thème des FPGA embarqués(eFPGAs). Ce manuscrit analyse les solutions existantes actuellement et discute les challenges et opportunités de ces technologies; une analyse en profondeur des échecs des tentatives passées est également donnée. Sur la base des solutions existantes dans la littérature, une structure de eFPGA à topologie de type grille est proposée, décrite en langage VHDL RTL. Cette solution comporte également les outils de programmation associés. Sur la base de cette proposition, des explorations sont menées quant à la pertinence des solutions proposées au sens de métriques d'actualité tells que densité logique, performance et consommation. Une des contributions notables de cette thèse repose sur la proposition d'une architecture de switch unifiée éliminant les blocs de connexions ainsi que l'interconnexion locale typique des FPGA actuels(telles que ceux modélisables dans le logiciel VPR) tout en autorisant une bonne routabilité. Toutes les expérimentations ont été menées sur une technologie CMOS 65nm faible puissance du fondeur STMicroelectronics, qui permet de fait d'obtenir des évaluations pertinentes. Une seconde contribution notable repose sur l'exploration de l'intégration de eFPGA dans un contexte système sur puce (SoC). Cette approche repose sur l'adjonction d'un eFPGA au sein d'un système intégré, au côté d'un processeur de type LEON3, la programmation s'effectuant sur la base d'une approche de type ESL. Deux explorations sont ainsi déclinées, comme unité intégrée au sein du processeur et comme coprocesseur. Les résultats présentés permettent ainsi d'analyser sous plusieurs angles les compromis possibles ainsi que les perspectives et limitations de ce type d'approches. Finalement, un cas d'étude est également présenté quant à l'intégration de mémoires de type magnétique (MRAM) au sein-même de l'architecture du eFPGA.

The thesis extensively revolves around embedded FPGAs (eFPGAs). It conducts detailed survey focused on programmable technologies to investigate potentials and challenges of eFPGAs and probable failure reasons of several past attempts of different kinds. Based on survey knowledge, technology independent soft eFPGAs of FPGA-like mesh-based classical architecture with standard RTL programming flow areinvestigated. Detailed eFPGA architectural explorations (including CAD tools) are conducted to explore silicon-efficient (logic density, power, performance etc.)eFPGA architectures. Among notable innovations achieved is unified switch block with complete removal of connection block and local interconnect of classical mesh-based FPGAs (VPR-like) while maintaining good routing efficiency. All experiments are conducted on 65nm CMOS low powerSTMicroelectronics process to get practical silicon values and perspectives. Finally eFPGAs in systems (SoCs) potentials and challenges are addressed. A reconfigurable acceleration scenario with ESL exploitation (for programming ease) and full silicon tradeoffs visualization is presented with integration of eFPGA with LEON3…
