The Archaeology of a 19th Century Post-Treaty Homestead on the Former Klamath Indian Reservation, Oregon

Ruiz, Christopher L., 1974- 12 1900 (has links)
xvi, 148 p. : ill. (some col.) A print copy of this thesis is available through the UO Libraries. Search the library catalog for the location and call number. / The preservation of architecture associated with underrepresented communities has been hindered by traditional biases in preservation. The post-contact history of Native Americans of the Klamath Basin has not been exempt from this trend. Archaeologists have begun to uncover evidence of post-contact lifeways of Native Americans on the former Klamath Indian Reservation in southern Oregon. This thesis examines the influence of 19th and 20th century federal policies on reservation households, using data from archaeological investigations at a 19th century Native American homestead (the Beatty Curve Site, 35KL95). This information, coupled with historical research, is used to reconstruct the homestead and cultural setting on paper and will be useful in identifying similar properties. More importantly, this thesis adds to a regional and national narrative on Native survival, adaptation, and cultural persistence in the face of new social realities in the post-contact period. This thesis includes previously published and unpublished co-authored material. / Committee in charge: Dr. Kingston Wm. Heath, Chairperson; Dr. Rick Minor, Member

The JAFARDD processor: a Java architecture based on a Folding Algorithm, with reservation stations, dynamic translation, and dual processing

El-Kharashi, Mohamed Watheq Ali Kamel 07 November 2018 (has links)
Java’s cross-platform virtual machine arrangement and its special features that make it ideal for writing network applications, also have a tremendous negative impact on its operations. In spite of its relatively weak performance, Java’s success has motivated the search for techniques to enhance its execution. This work presents the JAFARDD (a Java Architecture based on a Folding Algorithm, with Reservation stations, Dynamic translation, and Dual processing) processor designed to accelerate Java processing. JAFARDD dynamically translates Java bytecodes to RISC instructions to facilitate the use of a typical general-purpose RISC core. This enables the exploitation of the instruction level parallelism among the translated instructions using well established techniques, and facilitates the migration to Java-enabled hardware. Designing hardware for Java requires an extensive knowledge and understanding of its instruction set architecture which were acquired through a comprehensive behavioral analysis by benchmarking. Many aspects of the Java workload behavior were collected and the resulting statistics were analyzed. This helped identify performance-critical aspects that are candidates for hardware support. Our analysis surpasses other similar ones in terms of the number of aspects studied and the coverage of the recommendations made. Next, a global analysis of the design space of Java processors was carried out. Different hardware design options and alternatives that are suitable for Java were explored and their trade-offs were examined. We especially focused on the design methodology, execution engine organization, parallelism exploitation, and support for high-level language features. This analysis helped identify innovative design ideas such as the use of a modified Tomasulo’s algorithm. This, in turn, motivated the development of a bytecode folding algorithm that integrates with the reservation station concept in JAFARRD. While examining the behavioral analysis and the design space exploration ideas, a list of global architectural design principles started to emerge. These principles ensure JAFARRD can execute Java efficiently and are taken into consideration while the various instruction pipeline modules were designed. Results from the behavioral analysis also confirmed that Java’s stack architecture creates virtual data dependencies that limit performance and prohibit instruction level parallelism. To overcome this drawback, stack operation folding has been suggested in the literature to enhance performance by grouping contiguous instructions that have true data dependencies into a compound instruction. We have developed a folding algorithm that, unlike existing ones, does not require the folded instructions to be consecutive. To the best of our knowledge, our folding algorithm is the only one that permits nested pattern folding, tolerates variations in folding groups, and detects and resolves folding hazards completely. By incorporating this algorithm into a Java processor, the need for, and therefore the limitations of, a stack are eliminated. In addition to an efficient dual processing configuration (i.e., Java and RISC), JAFARDD is empowered with a number of innovative design features, including: an adaptive feedback fetch policy that copes with the variation in Java instruction size, a smart bytecode queue that compensates for the lack of a stack, an on-chip local variable file to facilitate operand access, an early tag assignment to dispatched instructions to reduce processing delay, and a specialized load/store unit that preprocesses object-oriented instructions. The functionality of JAFARDD has been successfully demonstrated through VHDL modeling and simulation. Furthermore, benchmarking using SPECjvm98 showed that the introduced techniques indeed speed up Java execution. Our bytecode folding algorithm speeds up execution by an average of about 1.29, eliminating an average of 97% of the stack instructions and 50% of the overall instructions. Compared to other proposals, JAFARDD combines Java bytecode folding with dynamic hardware translation, while maintaining the RISC nature of the processor, making this a much more flexible and general approach. / Graduate

KOTOUN, Josef January 2007 (has links)
The aim of this essey is to find out to what extend reservation affects developement of the countryside and to see how the citizens themselves percieve the landmark protection and what advantages and disadvantages they think it brings to them. Another aim was to find out relations between the villages council and landmark protection authorities in Mělník district.

SalÃrio de reserva e duraÃÃo do desemprego no Brasil: uma anÃlise com dados da pesquisa de padrÃo de vida do Ibge. / Wage of reserve and duration of the unemployment in Brazil: an analysis with data of the research of standard of living of the Ibge.

Victor Hugo de Oliveira Silva 07 April 2006 (has links)
O objetivo do presente estudo à o de analisar os principais determinantes do salÃrio de reserva e da duraÃÃo do desemprego, utilizando como evidÃncia a base de dados da Pesquisa de PadrÃo de Vida do IBGE (1996-1997). Para tanto, duas metodologias economÃtricas sÃo utilizadas. Na anÃlise de salÃrio de reserva, estima-se uma equaÃÃo de salÃrios, cujo principal determinante utilizado à a duraÃÃo do desemprego. A estimaÃÃo utiliza mÃnimos quadrados em dois estÃgios para atenuar o viÃs de simultaneidade presente. Os resultados mostram que a duraÃÃo do desemprego afeta negativamente o salÃrio de reserva do trabalhador. Esse resultado està de acordo com a evidÃncia empÃrica internacional. Na anÃlise de duraÃÃo, estima-se a funÃÃo risco empÃrica a partir dos modelos de Risco Proporcional e Proporcional de Cox, com e sem heterogeneidade nÃo-observada. Os parÃmetros estimados possuem os sinais usuais, com exceÃÃo da dummy para sexo. O risco de sair do desemprego à monotonicamente crescente inicialmente, e, apÃs a inclusÃo de heterogeneidade nÃo observada, passa a apresentar um perfil nÃo-monotÃnico. Esses resultados oferecem uma perspectiva nova para tentar entender as mudanÃas ocorridas no mercado de trabalho brasileiro durante a dÃcada de 90. / The objective of this study is to analyze the main determinants of reservation wages and unemployment duration using as empirical evidence the PPV - Pesquisa de PadrÃo de Vida from IBGE (1996-1997). For this purpose, two econometric methodologies are used. For reservation wages, we estimate a traditional wage regression model whose main determinant used was unemployment duration. In order to attenuate simultaneity bias, two-stage regressions are used. The results show that unemployment duration negatively affects the workersâ reservation wages. This corroborates international evidence. Regarding the analysis of duration, we estimate proportional hazards models, with and without unobserved heterogeneity. The estimated parameters have the usual signals, except for the dummy for sex. The risk of leaving unemployment raises initially, and then, after including unobserved heterogeneity, shows a non-monotonic profile. These results offer a new perspective to try to understand the changes that have occurred in the Brazilian labor market during the 90âs.
