Implementing MLOps on Edge-Cloud Systems: A New Paradigm for Training at the Edge
(University of Waterloo, 2023-08-18)Owing to the rise in data from the Internet of Things~(IoT) devices and the increasing demand for intelligent decision-making on the network's edge, there has been a significant surge in interest in the intersection of ... -
Implementing new nutrition care practices in healthcare: learning from the experience of health professionals in hospitals and Family Health Teams.
(University of Waterloo, 2019-03-06)Background: When converting evidence into practice to improve patient care, application of implementation, behaviour change and change management theory can help make the changes more effective and sustained. With a third ... -
Implementing Overloading and Polymorphism in Cforall
(University of Waterloo, 2003)The programming language Cforall extends the C language with, among other things, overloading, parametric polymorphism, and functions that can return multiple values from a single call. This thesis presents an outline ... -
Implementing quantum gates and channels using linear optics
(University of Waterloo, 2012-09-28)This thesis deals with the implementation of quantum channels using linear optics. We begin with overviews of some important concepts in both quantum information and quantum optics. First, we discuss the quantum bit and ... -
Implementing Real-Time Video Deblocking in FPGA Hardware
(University of Waterloo, 2007-05-10)Video compression techniques are commonly used to meet the increasing demands for the storage and transmission of digital video content. Popular video compression techniques such as MPEG video encoding make use of ... -
Implementing Sustainable Community Plans through Market-based Instruments
(University of Waterloo, 2015-10-09)Sustainable community development has gained momentum in recent years in order to address complex environmental, social and economic problems at the local level. Municipalities and communities are also becoming interested ... -
Implementing the Castryck-Decru attack on SIDH with general primes
(University of Waterloo, 2024-01-09)With the rapid progress of quantum computers in recent years, efforts have been made to standardize new public-key cryptographic protocols which would be secure against them. One of the schemes in contention was Supersingular ... -
Implementing the Schoof-Elkies-Atkin Algorithm with NTL
(University of Waterloo, 2013-04-30)In elliptic curve cryptography, cryptosystems are based on an additive subgroup of an elliptic curve defined over a finite field, and the hardness of the Elliptic Curve Discrete Logarithm Problem is dependent on the order ... -
Implementing the soft path approach to water management: A case study of southern York Region, Ontario
(University of Waterloo, 2010-08-31)This research study develops a framework of indicators to evaluate the ‘institutional capacity’ of a municipality to implement the soft path approach. The soft path approach is a new strategy for water conservation that ... -
Implications of Climate Change on the Growth of Two Tropical Agroforestry Tree Seedlings
(University of Waterloo, 2010-06-18)Tropical agroforestry systems are perceived to have the capacity to be resilient to future changes in climate. This study quantifies the response of two tropical agroforestry tree seedlings; Gliricidia sepium (Jacq.) Walp ... -
Implications of copper and nickel exposure to different members of the Hyalella azteca species complex
(University of Waterloo, 2014-04-25)Hyalella azteca, an amphipod crustacean, is frequently used in freshwater toxicity tests. Since the mid-1980s, numerous organizations have collected and established cultures of H. azteca originating from localities across ... -
Implications of Lateral Flow Generation on Land-Surface Scheme Fluxes
(University of Waterloo, 2002)This thesis details the development and calibration of a model created by coupling a land surface simulation model named CLASS with a hydrologic model named WATFLOOD. The resulting model, known as WatCLASS, is able to ... -
Implications of Low Water Levels for Canadian Lake Huron Marina Operations
