THE HURDLES OF MEDIATING WITH HUMANITARIAN LENS: AN EXPLORATION OF THE INTER-GOVERNMENTAL AUTHORITY AND DEVELOPMENT’S FAILED SOUTH SUDAN 2015 PEACE AGREEMENT
(2019-05-03)This thesis examines IGAD humanitarian focused mediation in the South Sudanese conflict that blames the warring parties entirely for failing to end the war. It particularly looks at mediation strategies deployed by IGAD ... -
A HYBRID FUZZY/GENETIC ALGORITHM FOR INTRUSION DETECTION IN RFID SYSTEMS
(2012-01-04)Various established and emerging applications of RFID technology have been and are being implemented by companies in different parts of the world. However, RFID technology is susceptible to a variety of security and privacy ... -
Hybrid Landscapes: Nature, Architectural Form, and Cultural Programming for Resiliency in the Mekong Delta
(2020-08-18)The Vietnamese Mekong Delta is a region characterized by the entwined natural and human landscapes that are perpetually being redefined. From the colonial periods to postwar nation-building, homogeneous modernization ... -
A Hybrid Machine Learning Intrusion Detection System Framework with Integrated Server and Client Models for Wireless Sensor Networks
(2024-04-15)Federated Learning (FL) has emerged as a novel distributed Machine Learning (ML) approach to tackle the challenges associated with data privacy and overload in ML-based intrusion detection systems (IDSs). Drawing inspiration ... -
Hybrid Query Expansion assisted Adaptive Visual Interface for Exploratory Information Retrieval
(2021-04-29)Query Expansion is an effective approach for improving the information retrieval (IR) system's performance as it addresses the vocabulary mismatch and distinct terminology issues. Traditional pseudo relevance feedback (PRF) ... -
Hybrid Retail: Rethinking the Urban Public by Embracing the Digital Experience
(2022-08-26)Commerce has been regarded as the engine of urbanity, and shopping is said to be arguably the last remaining form of public activity. If this is so, the added phenomenon of increased traction of retail in the digital space ... -
HYBRID SPACE: DESIGNING THE INTERFACE OF PHYSICAL AND DIGITAL PUBLICS
(2019-04-04)The term “mixed reality” (MR) describes an environment comprised of real-time, spatially-linked physical and digital content connected through the interface of digital technologies. While social and technological trends ... -
Hybrid Tag Recommendation in Collaborative Tagging Systems
(2012-04-20)The simplicity and flexibility of tagging allows users to collaboratively create large, loosely structured repositories of Web resources. One of its main drawbacks is the need for manual formulation of tags for each posted ... -
Hydraulic Fracturing and Induced Seismicity: A Semi-Analytical Approach
(2017-12-11)The injection of fluids into the ground is undertaken in a number of engineering practices including hydraulic fracturing, liquid waste disposal, CO2 sequestration and extraction of geothermal heat (EGS). Study of ... -
The Hydrochar Physiochemical Properties Following Different Aging Methods, and Its Impact on Kale Seed Germination, Plant Growth and Nutrient Elements Accumulation
(2023-11-10)Hydrochar, a product from hydrothermal carbonization (HTC) of biomass waste, has gained considerable attention in agriculture as a potential soil amendment. However, it has been found to exhibit phytotoxicity, which could ... -

HYDRODYNAMIC FORCING AND EROSION DYNAMICS ON TWO SMALL ISLANDS OFF THE NORTH SHORE OF PRINCE EDWARD ISLAND: A BASELINE ASSESSMENT
(2022-06-28)The global mean sea level (GMSL) is currently rising and continues to accelerate, in large part due to thermal expansion and a loss in land-ice mass, making low-lying coastal communities and small islands vulnerable to ... -
Hydrodynamics and the ecology of suspension-feeding benthos.
(Dalhousie University, 1986) -
Hydrogen supersaturations in the North and South Atlantic - a possible indicator of nitrogen fixation.
(2012-10-30)It has been demonstrated that nitrogen fixation is a source of hydrogen (H2) to the ocean and therefore measurements of H2 concentrations may be used as a possible indicator of nitrogen fixation (Moore, Punshon, Mahaffey, ... -
Hydrogeological Investigation of a Passive Wastewater Treatment System in a Thawing Permafrost Landscape
(2024-04-04)The future performance of passive wastewater treatment systems, ubiquitous throughout arctic and sub-arctic communities, raises concerns due to permafrost thaw and increased groundwater activity. In turn, these communities ... -
