dc.description.abstract	Five jetted sources are used in this work to probe the relationship between the X-ray and Radio emission from radio-loud active galactic nuclei. Timing techniques probing variability, light curve correlation, and power distribution are used to compare the two emission regimes. The power distribution, found using a structure function, showed some correlation with overall variability within the same emission regime, and also showed correlation between the power distribution of the different emission regimes. These correlations may indicate that the Radio and X-ray emission coming from these jetted sources are powered by the same processes.	en_CA
