Abstract

Appropriate for a one-semester course, this self-contained book is an introduction to nonparametric curve estimation theory. It may be used for teaching graduate students in statistics (in this case an intermediate statistical inference, on the level of the book by G. Casella and R. Berger (1990) "Statistical Inference", Brooks/Cole, is the prerequisite) as well as for diverse classes with students from other sciences including engineering, business, social, medical, and biology.

Abstract

In The Last Canadian Poet Sam Solecki offers the first book-length study of the entire body of work of Al Purdy. The book grew out of Solecki's work as editor of The Canadian Forum (1979-82), and his growing sense that, despite being one of Canada's major poets, Purdy has been ignored by critics and academics. This book takes into account not only Purdy's more than forty published books, but also the manuscripts from the Purdy archives at the University of Saskatchewan and Queen's University. It is the first serious study of Purdy's work since George Bowering's monograph was published thirty years ago.The Last Canadian Poet suggests that Purdy's work articulates a vision of Canada, both of what it is and of what it might be. It is a poetic vision of one man's encounter with his country and the world. Purdy's poems record his sense of being in the world as a Canadian, of being rooted in a particular landscape, way of life, and history. They also show the struggle for a Canadian poetics, a way of writing in what might be called the Canadian grain.The book also argues that Purdy's forging of a native poetic idiom occurred at roughly the same time that the nationalist phase of Canadian political and cultural development was coming to an end. In the 1960s, at the very moment when Canadian nationalism had gained general acceptance, a crucial shift was occurring not only in how the Canadian state and nation were being defined but also in how Canadians viewed their relationship to literature. The book offers an essentially conservative defence of what some critics have called the 'national-referential aesthetic' that underlays much of the literary production and cultural criticism of Canada's first century. It also questions the influence of multiculturalism and postcolonial criticism on the contemporary devaluation of the traditions, works, and history of the past hundred years. In this context, Purdy's poetry plays an important role in a larger argument about Canadian identity and nationhood and the need for a more nuanced attitude towards the past.

Abstract

Mijn opdracht was het verbeteren van een teststand voor hogedrukreinigers. De bedoeling is dat de verschillende parameters worden opgemeten. De gemeten waarden moeten worden gevisualiseerd en er moet gecontroleerd worden of de gemeten waarden tussen de gewenste minima en maxima liggen. Uiteindelijk moeten de gemeten waarden worden geregistreerd in een database. Ik ben begonnen met het beschrijven van de verschillende meettoestellen die in de teststand worden gebruikt. Vervolgens heb ik de HPC besproken waaraan de verschillende meettoestellen zullen gekoppeld worden. Daarna wordt het HPC-programma besproken. Om de gemeten waarden van de HPC naar de PC door te sturen, wordt er gebruik gemaakt van het MODBUS protocol. Dit wordt besproken in hoofdstuk 5. Om de gemeten waarden verder te verwerken, heb ik een programma geschreven in Visual Basic 5.0. Dit programma wordt uitgelegd in hoofdstuk 6.
