Television in Latin America Is “Everywhere”: Not Dead, Not Dying, but Converging and Thriving
Authors: Orozco Guillermo , Miller Toby
Published: July 2016

In Latin America, the now-venerable expression “the end of television” itself looks old, tired, and flawed: markets, cultures, politics, and policies alike find television more alive than ever, albeit in its usual state of technological, institutional, and textual flux. Advertising investment in TV continues to increase, governments still use television to promote generalized propaganda as well as their daily agendas, football on screen remains wildly popular, and fiction programs, most notably telenovelas, dominate prime time and draw large audiences aged between 25 and 60. While younger viewers watch television on a wider variety of screens and technologies, and do so at differing times, the discourse of TV remains an important referent in their audiovisual experiences. In addition, across age groups, divides persist between a minority with routine high-quality access to the digital world of technology and information and a majority without alternatives to the traditional audiovisual sphere, for whom cell phones, for instance, are at most devices for communicating with friends and family members. We cannot predict the future of TV in Latin America—but we can say with confidence that the claims for its demise are overstated. Television remains the principal cultural game in town.
VULNERABILIDADE SOCIAL ÀS MUDANÇAS CLIMÁTICAS EM CONTEXTOS RURAIS
Authors: KIRSCH Heitor Marcos , SCHNEIDER Sergio
Published: July 2016

Este trabalho avaliou uma série de estudos empíricos produzidos em áreas rurais que examinam e relatam os principais aspectos associados às respostas que as pessoas mobilizam no sentido de garantir a subsistência familiar diante dos efeitos adversos das mudanças climáticas. O objetivo é demonstrar que persiste uma imprecisão na literatura no tocante às principais noções que são operadas nessas análises. Imprecisão que acarreta distorções na avaliação dos impactos dos sistemas socioambientais afetados pela variação ou transformação dos ciclos naturais. Alternativas mais promissoras nesse sentido são as que incorporam a noção de cadeias causais, em que o acesso ou restrição ao conjunto de ativos é compreendido como determinante na construção da capacidade adaptativa e nas estratégias de enfrentamento das populações, sobretudo daquelas que vivem em ambientes rurais. A vulnerabilidade é compreendida como uma condição social e situacional, em que conjuntos de fatores endógenos e/ou exógenos, em múltiplas escalas e dimensões, influenciam-se mutuamente.
UMA ETNOGRAFIA DA EXPANSÃO DO MUNDO DO CRIME NO RIO DE JANEIRO
Authors: MATTOS Carla dos Santos
Published: July 2016

Comparando três décadas, este artigo descreve o contexto histórico da emergência da facção e de sua expansão na Favela Nova Holanda, em Maré, no Rio de Janeiro. Através das categorias “neurose” e “humildade”, apresenta como o quadro de referência “facção” dá inteligibilidade à vida como guerra ou paz, respectivamente. Sobre tal processo, argumenta que as operações policiais, as incursões dos “Caveirões” – carros blindados da Polícia Militar - e as disputas violentas entre facções vão se consolidando como dispositivos responsáveis por expandir o “mundo do crime”. No que diz respeito às práticas criminais, as mediações chamadas de “desenrolos” passam a configurar um espaço de interação no qual a força (armada) e a argumentação se sobrepõem e se fundem com frequência no âmbito dos conflitos.

Establishment‐Year Native Perennial Bunchgrass Biomass Yields
Authors: Muir James P. , Foster Jamie L. , Bow J. Randal
Published: July 2016

Weak seedling vigor of native North American perennial bunchgrasses may result in poor establishment‐season herbage dry matter (DM) yields (HY). Interseeding North American annual legumes as an N source during grassland restoration, pasture establishment, or bioenergy crop seeding might compound this limitation. Our first objective was to evaluate yellow Indiangrass [Sorghastrum nutans (L.) Nash], switchgrass (Panicum virgatum L.), and little bluestem [Schizachyrium scoparium (Michx.) Nash] first‐season HY in the southern Great Plains of North America. This took place in north–central Texas on a Windthorst fine sandy loam soil with no irrigation or soil amendments. Our second objective was to measure the effects of cross‐drilling native North American annual legumes smooth‐seeded wild bean [Strophostyles leiosperma (Torr. & Gray) Piper], trailing wild bean [Strophostyles helvula (L.) Elliott], and showy partridge pea [Chamaecrista fasciculata (Michx.) Greene] on bunchgrass first‐season HY. In the drier (340 mm) year, legumes failed to establish, while switchgrass produced 2410 and Indiangrass yielded 1980 kg HY ha−1 y−1. In the year with 687 mm rainfall, legumes had no negative effects (P > 0.05) on grass HY (5490 kg HY ha−1 y−1 for switchgrass) despite providing up to 49 through 1800 kg HY ha−1 y−1 (showy partridge‐pea with little bluestem; P ≤ 0.05 for year by grass × legume interactions). Our results indicate that these bunchgrasses produced harvestable HY during their establishment year and that simultaneously seeding annual legumes did not impair native perennial grass establishment while, in 1 yr, making potential N contributions for subsequent stand productivity.
Joint Linkage QTL Mapping for Yield and Agronomic Traits in a Composite Map of Three Common Bean RIL Populations
Authors: Hoyos‐Villegas Valerio , Song Qijian , Wright Evan M. , Beebe Stephen E. , Kelly James D.
Published: July 2016

Bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) production is challenged by many limitations with drought being among the top causes of crop failure worldwide. In this study, we constructed three small‐red‐seeded bean recombinant inbred line (RIL) mapping populations (S48M, S94M, and S95M) with a common parent (‘Merlot’) and performed joint interval mapping analysis as a small nested association mapping (NAM) population for agronomic traits and performance under rainfed conditions in Michigan. The objective was to identify novel sources of improved performance and genomic regions associated with desirable traits under rainfed and water‐sufficient conditions in small‐red bean breeding materials adapted to temperate zones. A composite linkage map was constructed using single‐nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) markers from the three populations and resulted in an improved version of the individual linkage maps shown by a greater genome span covered in the composite map (909 cM). A number of quantitative trait loci (QTL) of different size effects were identified for seed yield (R2 = 15.4–30.7%), seed size (R2 = 16.4–20.2%), days to flowering (R2 = 12.4–36.1%), days to maturity (R2 = 16.2%), lodging score (R2 = 10.3–12.9%), and canopy height (R2 = 17%). Our study confirmed previously reported QTL on five chromosomes and identified a new QTL for canopy height on chromosome Pv10. The use of a composite map and QTL analysis under a NAM population structure increased our ability to detect small‐effect QTL that were segregating in at least two of the populations but would not have been detected using individual linkage maps.

Paper ini memaparkan perancangan pengendali robot berbasis perilaku menggunakan Fuzzy, di mana parameter Fuzzy ditala secara otomatis menggunakan Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) yang diistilahkan dengan Particle Swarm Fuzzy Controller (PSFC). Suatu fungsi tertentu dirancang untuk meningkatkan performa proses pencarian PSO. Fungsi tersebut mengubah harga bobot inersia menjadi berkurang secara sigmoid (Sigmoid Decreasing Inertia Weight). Empat buah perilaku robot dirancang menggunakan PSFC. Kemudian seluruh perilaku tersebut juga dikoordinasikan menggunakan PSFC. Beberapa simulasi pengendalian pergerakan robot dan percobaan dengan robot MagellanPro telah dilakukan untuk menguji performa algoritma yang dirancang. Algoritma lain, Genetic Fuzzy Controller (GFC) digunakan sebagai pembanding. Dari hasil pengujian dapat dikatakan bahwa pengendali yang dirancang memiliki kemampuan yang baik untuk menyelesaikan tugasnya pada suatu lingkungan nyata.

This paper describes the design of robots controllers based on behaviour using Fuzzy, in which the Fuzzy parameters are automatically tuned using the Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) which is termed the Particle Swarm Fuzzy Controller (PSFC). A particular function is designed to improve the performance of PSO search process. That particular function changes the value of the inertia weight, so itâ€™s decreased in sigmoid (Sigmoid Decreasing Inertia Weight). Four types of robots behaviour are designed and coordinated using the PSFC. Some simulation of the robot movement control and experiments with the robot MagellanPro have been conducted to test the performance of the algorithm that have been designed. Another algorithm, Genetic Fuzzy Controller (GFC) is used as a comparison. From the test results, it can be said that the controllers that have been designed, have a good ability to accomplish its task in a real environment.

This study employs fractal algorithms to generate and transform original Aceh ornaments into architectural design elements. The interpretation and generation of this ornaments by fractal method uses L-system based software called jBatik. We studied an approach of preserving local ornaments using three stages: understanding the local ornament geometry function, interpreting and generating new ornament using fractal method, exploring the possible iterations of patterns based on fractal algorithms. We applied this process into architectural design experiments where the 3D patterns used as an architectural design elements. The result shows that the possibility of preserving local ornament by fractal method can open opportunity for architects to explore new approach in design using the iteration and transformation of local ornaments. The endless possibilities offered by fractal method for generating new ornaments justify the digital advancement for its preservation.

Classification is a method for compiling data systematically according to the rules that have been set previously. In recent years classification method has been proven to help many peopleâ€™s work, such as image classification, medical biology, traffic light, text classification etc. There are many methods to solve classification problem. This variation method makes the researchers find it difficult to determine which method is best for a problem. This framework is aimed to compare the ability of classification methods, such as Support Vector Machine (SVM), K-Nearest Neighbor (K-NN), and Backpropagation, especially in study cases of image retrieval with five category of image dataset. The result shows that K-NN has the best average result in accuracy with 82%. It is also the fastest in average computation time with 17,99 second during retrieve session for all categories class. The Backpropagation, however, is the slowest among three of them. In average it needed 883 second for training session and 41,7 second for retrieve session.

Update mechanism is an important process that relays information to the end-user by sending the data from the client to the server. There are several kinds of update mechanism that are used, one of them is reporting protocol. Reporting protocol sends the data from the client to the server continuously in a certain time interval. Reporting protocol occasionally sends the same information repeatedly to the end-user and sometimes the data arenâ€™t needed by the end-user. This is an issue, because it can cause a large amount of bandwidth usage. In this research, we have developed an improvement of the reporting protocol mechanism for mobile user using change detection and resource-aware data sensing to minimize the bandwidth and resource usage. The improvement of reporting protocol that is implemented reduces frequency of data transfer with the prediction of the changes in user activity and position. The prediction is used as a trigger when the data is about to be sent. The results have shown that the adaptive reporting protocol could improve the performance of the overall reporting protocol. This is shown by the improvement of the bandwidth efficiency up to 36-97%, memory efficiency at 1.5-6% and battery efficiency at 7-13%.

Published: July 2016

Comunication between microcontrollers is one of the crucial point in embedded sytems. On the other hand, embedded system must be able to run many parallel task simultaneously. To handle this, we need a reliabe system that can do a multitasking without decreasing every task’s performance. The most widely used methods for multitasking in embedded systems are using Interrupt Service Routine (ISR) or using Real Time Operating System (RTOS). This research compared perfomance of USART communication on system with RTOS to a system that use interrupt. Experiments run on two identical development board XMega A3BU-Xplained which used intenal sensor (light and temperature) and used servo as external component. Perfomance comparison done by counting ping time (elapsing time to transmit data and get a reply as a mark that data has been received) and compare it. This experiments divided into two scenarios: (1) system loaded with many tasks, (2) system loaded with few tasks. Result of the experiments show that communication will be faster if system only loaded with few tasks. System with RTOS has won from interrupt in case (1), but lose to interrupt in case (2).

Published: July 2016

Stuttered speech is a dysfluency rich speech, more prevalent in males than females. It has been associated with insufficient air pressure or poor articulation, even though the root causes are more complex. The primary features include prolonged speech and repetitive speech, while some of its secondary features include, anxiety, fear, and shame. This study used LPC analysis and synthesis algorithms to reconstruct the stuttered speech. The results were evaluated using cepstral distance, Itakura-Saito distance, mean square error, and likelihood ratio. These measures implied perfect speech reconstruction quality. ASR was used for further testing, and the results showed that all the reconstructed speech samples were perfectly recognized while only three samples of the original speech were perfectly recognized.

Beberapa tahun terakhir, muncul teknologi telekomunikasi baru yang disebut 3G. Secara umum, penggunaan 3G di Indonesia belum meluas dan merata. Melihat perkembangan penggunaan 3G di Indonesia tersebut, peneliti ingin mengetahui faktor yang paling berpengaruh terhadap adopsi 3G pada masyarakat Indonesia dengan mengambil populasi mahasiswa Universitas Indonesia. Pola adopsi 3G dapat diteliti berdasarkan beberapa model adopsi teknologi yang ada. Peneliti memilih Sarker’s and Wells’ Framework sebagai dasar hipotesis penelitian karena model-model adaptasi teknologi yang lain seperti Technology Acceptance Model dan Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology dinilai hanya menggambarkan teknologi secara umum sehingga kurang mempertimbangkan faktor-faktor khusus sehubungan dengan sifat dari 3G. Peneliti menyusun kuesioner tentang adopsi 3G dari model SEM yang dibangun berdasarkan Sarker’s and Wells’ Framework, kemudian menyebarkannya pada sampel mahasiswa Universitas Indonesia. Proses penyusunan model sampai interpretasi hasil perhitungan dilakukan dengan Structural Equation Modeling. Hasil analisis yang dilakukan menunjukkan bahwa saat ini framework milik Sarker dan Wells yang digunakan untuk menggambarkan adopsi perangkat mobile tidak cocok diterapkan pada adopsi teknologi 3G di Indonesia dengan populasi mahasiswa Universitas Indonesia.

Published: July 2016

The current researches on question answer usually achieve the answer only from unstructured text resources such as collection of news or pages. According to our observation from Yahoo!Answer, users sometimes ask in complex natural language questions which contain structured and unstructured features. Generally, answering the complex questions needs to consider not only unstructured but also structured resource. In this work, researcher propose a new idea to improve accuracy of the answers of complex questions by recognizing the structured and unstructured features of questions and them in the web. Our framework consists of three parts: Question Analysis, Resource Discovery, and Analysis of The Relevant Answer. In Question Analysis researcher used a few assumptions and tried to find structured and unstructured features of the questions. In the resource discovery researcher integrated structured data (relational database) and unstructured data (web page) to take the advantage of two kinds of data to improve and to get the correct answers. We can find the best top fragments from context of the relevant web pages in the Relevant Answer part and then researcher made a score matching between the result from structured data and unstructured data, then finally researcher used QA template to reformulate the questions. Penelitian yang ada pada saat ini mengenai Question Answer (QA) biasanya mendapatkan jawaban dari sumber teks yang tidak terstruktur seperti kumpulan berita atau halaman. Sesuai dengan observasi peneliti dari pengguna Yahoo!Answer, biasanya mereka bertanya dalam natural language yang sangat kompleks di mana mengandung bentuk yang terstruktur dan tidak terstruktur. Secara umum, menjawab pertanyaan yang kompleks membutuhkan pertimbangan yang tidak hanya sumber tidak terstruktur tetapi juga sumber yang terstruktur. Pada penelitian ini, peneliti mengajukan suatu ide baru untuk meningkatkan keakuratan dari jawaban pertanyaan yang kompleks dengan mengenali bentuk terstruktur dan tidak terstruktur dan mengintegrasikan keduanya di web. Framework yang digunakan terdiri dari tiga bagian: Question Analysis, Resource Discovery, dan Analysis of The Relevant Answer. Pada Question Analysis peneliti menggunakan beberapa asumsi dan mencoba mencari bentuk data yang terstruktur dan tidak terstruktur. Dalam penemuan sumber daya, peneliti mengintegrasikan data terstruktur (relational database) dan data tidak terstruktur (halaman web) untuk mengambil keuntungan dari dua jenis data untuk meningkatkan dan untuk mencapai jawaban yang benar. Peneliti dapat menemukan fragmen atas terbaik dari konteks halaman web pada bagian Relevant Answer dan kemudian peneliti membuat pencocoka skor antara hasil dari data terstruktur dan data tidak terstruktur. Terakhir peneliti menggunakan template QA untuk merumuskan pertanyaan.

Kajian terhadap beberapa pendekatan virtualisasi telah dilakukan dan dilaporkan dalam paper ini. Pendekatan virtualisasi yang dikaji adalah full virtualization, hardware-assisted virtualization, paravirtualization, dan operating system-level virtualization. Evaluasi dilakukan melalui pengukuran kinerja masing-masing pendekatan dengan beban kerja tertentu saat dijalankan menggunakan virtualisasi dan saat virtualisasi tidak digunakan. Hasil eksperimen menunjukkan bahwa operating system-level virtualization lebih efisien dalam hal penggunaan sumber daya komputer dibanding pendekatan lainnya. Hasil evaluasi menunjukkan bahwa pendekatan virtualisasi seharusnya ikut menjadi pertimbangan dalam memilih solusi virtualisasi. Study of some of the virtualization approach has been carried out and reported in this paper. Virtualization approaches that were examined are full virtualization, hardware-assisted virtualization, paravirtualization, and operating system-level virtualization. Evaluation is done by measuring the performance of each approach with a particular work load when run using virtualization and virtualization when not in use. The experimental results show that the operating system-level virtualization is more efficient in the use of computer resources than other approaches. Evaluation results show that the virtualization approach should help to be a consideration in choosing a virtualization solution.

Pengembangan manajemen dan keorganisasian yang didukung dengan sistem informasi berbasis komputer merupakan instrumen strategis yang dibutuhkan dalam menghadapi era globalisasi pelayanan. Hal ini karena dukungan teknologi informasi dapat memudahkan pengambilan keputusan yang akurat, dapat dipercaya, cepat, dan ekonomis. Kebutuhan yang sama juga dialami oleh manajemen dan keorganisasian di lingkungan Departemen Agama, dan secara khusus Direktorat Penyelenggaraan Haji dan Umrah (Ditjen PHU). Sebagai contoh, pelaksanaan penyelenggaraan haji di Indonesia telah menggunakan perangkat pendukung sistem informasi berbasis komputer yang dikenal dengan Sistem Komputerisasi Haji Terpadu (SISKOHAT). Dengan mengamati tugas dan tanggung jawab serta ruang lingkup pekerjaan di lingkungan Ditjen PHU secara keseluruhan, maka kebutuhan yang mengarah pada perancangan strategis sistem informasi semakin mendesak. Penggunaan metodologi Ward and Peppard untuk mendapatkan perancangan strategis sistem informasi pada Ditjen PHU dengan mengombinasikan penggunaan metode analisis dari McFarlan dan standar yang dikeluarkan oleh Information Technology Infrastructure Library (ITIL) dalam pemetaan kondisi TI di lingkungan Ditjen PHU sehingga akan didapatkan pengelolaan TI Ditjen PHU menjadi selaras antara sistem informasi, infrastruktur, dan manajemen informasi. Management and organizational development are supported by computer-based information system is a strategic instrument needed in the era of globalization of services. This is because information technology support to facilitate decision making accurate, reliable, fast, and economical. The same requirement is also experienced by the management and organization in the Ministry of Religious Affairs, and in particular the Directorate of Operation of Hajj and Umrah (DG PHU). For example, the implementation of the hajj operation in Indonesia has been using the computer-based information systems support, known as Haji Integrated Computerized Systems (SISKOHAT). By observing the duties and responsibilities and the scope of work within the Directorate General of PHU as a whole, the need for a strategic lead to the design of information systems is increasingly urgent. Ward and Peppard use of the methodology for the strategic design of information systems at DG PHU by combining the use of methods of analysis of McFarlan and standards issued by the Information Technologi Infrastructure Library (ITIL) in IT in mapping environmental conditions that would be obtained PHU Directorate of IT management to be aligned DG PHU between information systems, infrastructure, and information management.
