(University of Waterloo, 2018-09-04)The development of Additive Manufacturing (AM) has reached a point where it is positioned to be disruptive for the manufacturing sector, with a majority of manufacturers having leveraged the use of AM in their operations. ... -
Process Mapping and Optimization of Titanium Parts Made by Binder Jetting Additive Manufacturing
(University of Waterloo, 2018-01-08)Additive manufacturing (AM) has recently seen an increase in adoption outside of its traditional role of rapid prototyping and is being used more and more for the production of functional components. The increased adoption ... -
A Process Model of Non-Relativistic Quantum Mechanics
(University of Waterloo, 2014-08-25)A process model of quantum mechanics utilizes a combinatorial game to generate a discrete and finite causal space upon which can be defined a self-consistent quantum mechanics. An emergent space-time and continuous wave ... -
Process Models for Distributed Event-Based Systems
(University of Waterloo, 2010-03-10)Distributed Event-Based Systems (DEBSs) are middleware supporting the interaction of publisher and subscriber components via events. In DEBSs, the subscribers to be notified when an event is announced are decided at ... -
The Process of Communication between People with Categorical Knowledge: An Exploratory Study
(University of Waterloo, 2009-09-30)This thesis investigates the process of communication between a person who has in-depth and technical knowledge about certain items and a person who has very broad and non-technical knowledge. For example, a doctor has ... -
