Guidelines and syllabus proposal for the hotel and tourism management programme at Fundación Universitaria para el Desarrollo Humano - Uninpahu

In this research proposal, English for Specific Purposes (ESP) is presented as the general framework. The analysis focuses on the students of Hotel and Tourism Management undergraduate programme at Fundacion Universitaria para el Desarrollo Humano (UNINPAHU), who are to study three levels of general English. Nevertheless, the current contents neither consider the specialised language of the discipline nor the technical vocabulary of this field. Accordingly, the study aims at determining the guidelines that should be considered to propose a syllabus for the English III class that relates the specificities of the programme and the current grammar topics addressed in that level. This research features a qualitative approach, by means of direct observation in the classroom, surveys of undergraduate students and interviews with expert teachers in different areas of the programme. The data analysis followed the colour coding technique and a procedure recommended in grounded theoryIt was concluded that there must be five core guidelines to propose a syllabus for the Hotel and Tourism Management Programme at UNINPAHU: 1). The proposal should consider students’ needs analysis, the aims and objectives to cope with those needs, the content selection or syllabus, the teaching methodology that fits in, the materials adaptation, and the different forms of assessment; 2). The students’ specific learning objectives must be framed within English for Specific Purposes as a subset of English as a Foreign Language; 3). The needs analysis must constitute the beginning of any syllabus development process; 4). The adaptation of the existing teaching and learning materials is a necessity to reach the desired levels of proficiency required by the programme; and 5). The communicative competence constitutes the skill that students seek to enhance the most, and it must be considered of paramount importance.
Chaotic Compilation for Encrypted Computing: Obfuscation but Not in Name.

An `obfuscation' for encrypted computing is quantified exactly here, leading to an argument that security against polynomial-time attacks has been achieved for user data via the deliberately `chaotic' compilation required for security properties in that environment. Encrypted computing is the emerging science and technology of processors that take encrypted inputs to encrypted outputs via encrypted intermediate values (at nearly conventional speeds). The aim is to make user data in general-purpose computing secure against the operator and operating system as potential adversaries. A stumbling block has always been that memory addresses are data and good encryption means the encrypted value varies randomly, and that makes hitting any target in memory problematic without address decryption, yet decryption anywhere on the memory path would open up many easily exploitable vulnerabilities. This paper `solves (chaotic) compilation' for processors without address decryption, covering all of ANSI C while satisfying the required security properties and opening up the field for the standard software tool-chain and infrastructure. That produces the argument referred to above, which may also hold without encryption.

Some Musical Illusions Are Discovered

Chapter 2 focuses on musical illusions that involve stereo sounds that were discovered by the author. These are described and demonstrated as sound examples. In each illusion, two simultaneous streams of tones are played, one to the listener’s right and the other to their left. The tones are perceptually reorganized in space, so that the melodies we hear are quite different from those that are really being played. Most people tend to hear the higher tones as coming from their right and the lower tones as coming from their left, but other people hear the illusions differently. These perceptual differences depend statistically on the listener’s handedness, so that left-handers are more likely than right-handers to obtain different illusions. So not only do we hear these patterns “wrongly,” but we also hear them differently from each other. The illusions also show that listeners are strongly influenced by their assumptions concerning what is likely to occur—termed <italic>unconscious inference</italic> or <italic>top-down processing</italic>. In each illusion, sequences coming from both the right and the left channels consist of tones that leap around in pitch. However, listeners instead create in their minds patterns that do not really exist: They perceive two smooth melodies, each in a different pitch range. The illusions are not simply quirks of artificial sounds generated in the laboratory. Instead, related effects occur in music that is produced by natural instrument sounds, and can even be found in conventional orchestral music. Other related effects are also discussed.

Event and Timer Handling

The Python libvirt module provides a complete interface for handling both events and timers. Both event handling and timer handling are invoked through a function interface as opposed to a class/method interface. This makes it easier to integrate the interface into either a graphical or console program.
Discussion on the Top Level Design and Practice in the Construction of University's Smart Campus

With the continuous development of social development process, under the background of the current Internet information age, the teaching field has gradually faced many opportunities and severe challenges created by educational informationization. The construction of digital smart campus has become an inevitable place for the current teaching work. Tendency. This paper focuses on the top-level design of colleges and universities in building smart campuses, and puts forward the design ideas of “strategic guidance, business-driven, system planning, and strict argumentation” to realize the intelligent management, learning and life of colleges and universities.
Forward Secure Identity-Based Signature Scheme with RSA

A forward secure identity based signature scheme (FSIBS) provides forward secrecy of secret keys. In order to mitigate the damage when keys are leaked, it is desirable to evolve all the secret keys, i.e., both the user keys and the master key. In this paper, we propose a new RSA-based FSIBS scheme which requires constant size keys and generates constant size signatures. The experimental results show that it takes 3 ms to generate a signature in the proposed scheme while it takes 75 ms in the existing pairing based approach. The proposed scheme is provably secure under the factoring assumption in the random oracle model.

Automated Trust Negotiation for Cloud Applications in Identity-as-a-Service

In recent years, enterprise applications migrate from a local hosting to a Software-as-a-Service Cloud provider and provide themselves as Cloud services. They may adapt their security infrastructures to a target Cloud provider and may establish a business-to-business relationship with each other manually. Migration of existing applications from a local hosting to a Cloud provider requires substantial adaptation effort in individual architectural components. Existing work has focused on migrating application components with functional and nonfunctional aspects. However, none of them has focused so far on the adaptation of the required security infrastructure. In our previous work, we proposed to decouple the Authentication and Authorisation Infrastructure (AAI) from the business logic of the application as a manageable resource for Cloud providers to control its life cycle. In this paper, we present a novel trust model that enables a dynamic trust relationship between Cloud services. Also, we demonstrate the complete life cycle of the security infrastructure from the development to the migration across multiple Cloud providers. We evaluate the following aspects of Cloud migration: First, the trust relationship is adapted and preserved during the migration. Second, the security infrastructure is portable across Cloud providers as well as interoperable with the protected web service.

Reconstruction is one method used by the investigator to conduct the investigation process even though the nature of this reconstruction is not obliged to do but to further clarify again about how it happened it is necessary to the holding of reconstruction cases. The purpose of holding this reconstruction is to provide an overview of the occurrence of a criminal incident with action way back the way the suspect committed a criminal act with the aim to further convince the examiner about the truth of statements of suspects and witnesses. Reconstruction is helping the investigation to obtain evidence in the form of evidence of instructions before the case was transferred to the prosecutor. Reconstruction is usually performed at the crime scene (TKP). Each demonstration conducted by suspects and witnesses need to be taken photographs and the reconstruction of the course of the demonstration must be recorded in the Minutes of Reconstruction. Action and the first duty at the crime scene (TKP) is a key starting businesses for further investigation of the criminal events. Success or failure of further investigation, it mostly depends on the business acts and the first duty of investigators who are doing work in the crime scene. The scene is a source of materials for further investigation, because the crime scene often and often will be attended by the investigator to conduct an investigation in order to carry out reconstruction and also to get the ingredients as much as possible so that the case becomes brighter then smoothly be trial.

Two Approaches to Supporting Improvisational Ensemble for Music Beginners based on Body Motion Tracking

Melody recognition consists of three cognitive elements: pitch contour, rhythm, and tonality. Pitch contour and rhythm can be relatively easily represented by body motion. In comparison, tonality is difficult to understand and to represent for music beginners. In this paper, we focus on two approaches to supporting improvisational ensembles for music beginners on the basis of body motion tracking: one using a 3D motion capture camera and one using sensors in a smartphone. Users of our systems using these approaches can participate in improvisational ensembles by making hand movements that correspond to the pitch contour and rhythm without considering tonality because the generated pitch is automatically adjusted to a consonant pitch with the chords of a background tune. To deal with the delay and error in gesture recognition due to a 3D motion capture camera, we improved methods for recognizing gesture. The experimental results show that the delay of our method was improved over that of the conventional one. Furthermore, we implemented a method for motion tracking on the basis of smartphone sensors. The experimental results show the difficulties of motion tracking with smartphone sensors. Moreover, we discuss perspectives on the social reuse of improvisational melody data shared as open data.

Multi-qubit entanglement and spin squeezing in cavity QED via two-photon driving

We present a generic cavity quantum electrodynamics (QED) set-up that can generate different types of strong multipartite entanglement. The proposed system is already accessible at the experimental level in different cavity QED architectures as it only involves a spin ensemble weakly coupled to a two-photon driven cavity. The first entangling scheme we propose, the dark-mode assisted protocol (DMAP), consists in transferring the squeezing from the cavity to the spin ensemble. The resulting spin squeezed state (with a Kitawaga spin squeezing parameter on the order of 10−2) has strong pairwise entanglement that is especially useful for quantum metrology. In a relatively short timescale (inversely proportional to the collective coupling strength), our scheme can almost reach the quantum Heisenberg limit (with a Wineland spin squeezing parameter close to 2/N), even for a few spins. Unlike one-axis twisting and two-axis countertwisting, the amount of spin squeezing generated by our scheme is not constrained by the number of spins. Our scheme is faster and doesn't suffer the oscillatory dynamics of one-axis twisting. We will also demonstrate how the DMAP can be analyzed as an adiabatic evolution even though achieving adiabaticity might seem impossible in our gapless system. In the second part of the thesis, we build on our previous work which showed that a two-photon drive can be used to simulate ultra-strong coupling in a standard cavity QED system where the cavity is weakly coupled to a single qubit. We extend this approach to a cavity weakly interacting with a spin ensemble and simulate the Dicke model, which is known to exhibit interesting quantum features such as strong entanglement and quantum phase transitions. The other entangling schemes we propose, make use of the simulated Dicke model: the realization of a Molmer-Sorenson gate, closely related to one-axis twisting, and the generation of large multipartite entangled cat-states. We demonstrate how our scheme can be used to prepare a remote entanglement protocol, a key ingredient in quantum information, where the weakly interacting Hamiltonian is used to grow a Greenberger–Horne–Zeilinger state which will then be transformed into an entangled-cat state by the simulated Dicke Hamiltonian. Finally we illustrate how our system can become an interesting platform to study superradiant phase transition and as well as the effects of squeezed input noise.%%%%Nous presentons une architecture generique en electrodynamique quantique en cavite (en anglais: QED), capable de cultiver differents types d'intrication quantique a plusieurs corps.

Design and Implementation of Gesture Recognition Manipulator Control System

With the rapid development of information technology, robot technology has matured and is widely used in military, industrial, agricultural, medical, scientific research and other fields, covering all aspects of people's lives.  Remote control robots can replace humans in the harsh environment, so the development potential is huge. This paper designed a robotic arm control system built on a mobile platform.  Using the Leap Motion infrared gesture sensor for real-time hand motion acquisition, the computer's PC software Processing captures the gestures by calling the relevant library functions, and transmits the data to the Arduino control via WiFi. The board, thereby achieving gesture control of the robot arm.  The robotic arm is built on a mobile cart with a camera remotely controlled by an Android phone, enabling a variety of remote capture tasks.  The experimental results show that the gesture control robot based on mobile platform has flexible movement, convenient control and wide application fields.
Incorporating social practices in BDI agent systems

When agents interact with humans, either through embodied agents or because they are embedded in a robot, it would be easy if they could use fixed interaction protocols as they do with other agents. However, people do not keep fixed protocols in their day-to-day interactions and the environments are often dynamic, making it impossible to use fixed protocols. Deliberating about interactions from fundamentals is not very scalable either, because in that case all possible reactions of a user have to be considered in the plans. In this paper we argue that social practices can be used as an inspiration for designing flexible and scalable interaction mechanisms that are also robust. However, using social practices requires extending the traditional BDI deliberation cycle to monitor landmark states and perform expected actions by leveraging existing plans. We define and implement this mechanism in Jason using a periodically run meta-deliberation plan, supported by a metainterpreter, and illustrate its use in a realistic scenario.

Asymptotic near-efficiency of the “Gibbs-energy (GE) and empirical-variance” estimating functions for fitting Matérn models - II: Accounting for measurement errors via “conditional GE mean”

Consider one realization of a continuous-time Gaussian process Z which belongs to the Matérn family with known “regularity” index ν>0. For estimating the autocorrelation-range and the variance of Z from n observations on a fine grid, we studied in Girard (2016) the GE–EV method which simply retains the empirical variance (EV) and equates it to a candidate “Gibbs energy (GE)”, i.e. the quadratic form zTR−1z∕n where z is the vector of observations and R is the autocorrelation matrix for z associated with a candidate range. The present study considers the case where the observation is z plus a Gaussian white noise whose variance is known. We propose to simply bias-correct EV and to replace GE by its conditional mean given the observation. We show that the ratio of the large-n mean squared error of the resulting CGEM–EV estimate of the range-parameter to the one of its maximum likelihood estimate, and the analog ratio for the variance-parameter, have the same behavior than in the no-noise case: they both converge, when the grid-step tends to 0, toward a constant, only function of ν, surprisingly close to 1 provided ν is not too large. We also obtain, for all ν, convergence to 1 of the analog ratio for the microergodic-parameter. Furthermore, we discuss possible non-normality of the noise, and the impact of a “not small enough” grid-step.
Open Access Books [Workshop Summary]

OA books are starting to gain traction, with more than 12,000 titles now listed in the Directory of Open Access Books, increasing attention from European funders, and a number of new university presses focusing on OA monographs. However, only a very small proportion of scholarly books are published open access, and significant challenges remain, from funding and models to rights, disciplinary, and cultural issues. Participants will be invited to consider some of these challenges and to think broadly to suggest solutions and opportunities for the future.
Multi-View Intact Space Learning

It is practical to assume that an individual view is unlikely to be sufficient for effective multi-view learning. Therefore, integration of multi-view information is both valuable and necessary. In this paper, we propose the Multi-view Intact Space Learning (MISL) algorithm, which integrates the encoded complementary information in multiple views to discover a latent intact representation of the data. Even though each view on its own is insufficient, we show theoretically that by combing multiple views we can obtain abundant information for latent intact space learning. Employing the Cauchy loss (a technique used in statistical learning) as the error measurement strengthens robustness to outliers. We propose a new definition of multi-view stability and then derive the generalization error bound based on multi-view stability and Rademacher complexity, and show that the complementarity between multiple views is beneficial for the stability and generalization. MISL is efficiently optimized using a novel Iteratively Reweight Residuals (IRR) technique, whose convergence is theoretically analyzed. Experiments on synthetic data and real-world datasets demonstrate that MISL is an effective and promising algorithm for practical applications.
ANALISIS KAJIAN PSIKOLOGI SASTRA PADA NOVEL “PULANG” KARYA LEILA S. CHUDORI

This research is motivated by the lack of popularity of the study of novels using literary psychology. The researcher formulated the problem in this study how the psychiatric aspects of the main character in the novel go home to face inner conflicts and elaboration of the form of inner conflict experienced by the main character in the novel. This study has a purpose, namely, analyzing the psychology of literature by examining the psychological aspects of the character, and describes the form of mental disorders experienced by the main character, Dimas Suryo. The research method used is descriptive qualitative, with novel data sources Pulang written by Leila S. Chudori and several relevant similar studies. The results of the analysis show that the character Dimas Suryo experienced various inner conflicts due to thinking of events after the events that occurred in his homeland and also his strong desire to return to his homeland despite several failed attempts. This caused a mental disturbance to the character, Dimas Suryo. These disorders after the researchers describe them, anxiety, trauma, stress, and depression. These four psychological disorders value greatly disturbs the peace of life and inhibits the process of self-realization in carrying out a true life. In the end the author chose death to be the end of the psychological suffering experienced by Dimas Suryo as the main character.
