description: We report the results of a high angular resolution near-infrared survey of dusty Wolf-Rayet stars using the Keck-1 Telescope, including new multi-wavelength images of the pinwheel nebulae WR 98a, WR 104, and WR 112. Angular sizes were measured for an additional 8 dusty WR stars using aperture masking interferometry, allowing us to probe characteristics sizes down to ~20 milliarcseconds (~40 AU for typical sources). With angular sizes and specific fluxes, we can directly measure the wavelength-dependent surface brightness and size relations for our sample. We discovered tight correlations of these properties within our sample which could not be explained by simple spherically-symmetric dust shells or even the more realistic ``pinwheel nebula'' (3-D) radiative transfer model, when using optical constants of Zubko. While the tightly-correlated surface brightness relations we uncovered offer compelling indirect evidence of a shared and distinctive dust shell geometry amongst our sample, long-baseline interferometers should target the marginally-resolved objects in our sample in order to conclusively establish the presence or absence of the putative underyling colliding wind binaries thought to produce the dust shells around WC Wolf-Rayets.

description: Memory was captured from a system infected by ransomware and its contents was examined using live forensic tools, with the intent of identifying the symmetric encryption keys being used. NotPetya, Bad Rabbit and Phobos hybrid ransomware samples were tested during the investigation. If keys were discovered, the following two steps were also performed. Firstly, a timeline was manually created by combining data from multiple sources to illustrate the ransomware's behaviour as well as showing when the encryption keys were present in memory and how long they remained there. Secondly, an attempt was made to decrypt the files encrypted by the ransomware using the found keys. In all cases, the investigation was able to confirm that it was possible to identify the encryption keys used. A description of how these found keys were then used to successfully decrypt files that had been encrypted during the execution of the ransomware is also given. The resulting generated timelines provided a excellent way to visualise the behaviour of the ransomware and the encryption key management practices it employed, and from a forensic investigation and possible mitigation point of view, when the encryption keys are in memory.

Great moments in American painting : dogged looks from the other side of the fence
Creators: name: Steiner, Shep
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: This thesis studies a unique development in modernist painting in the United States of America during the 1950s; the shift away from abstract expressionism, most vividly distilled in the work of Morris Louis and Kenneth Noland. In the context of the early Cold War, the appearance of Louis' first Veil series and Noland's Circle Paintings is no coincidence. They mark the onset of a new mood taking hold of the country in the years following World War II. Yet, if these colorful and deeply sensuous images seem to speak to a new optimism, to possibilities opened up, and to freedoms renewed, we would be missing the point. In fact, they are founded on a theory of expression that is not only critical of the surrounding culture, but stakes out the most pessimistic of positions possible in that culture. This thesis is an attempt to develop a series of hermeneutic frames for reading modernist abstraction in this negative light. In order to unpack these images I take recourse in the art criticism of Clement Greenberg; specifically his notion of the decorative, a kind of unity and immediacy of surface, which I implicate in a number of wide-ranging dialogues emerging around the modern subject. It is especially toward structuralist trends in American psychiatry and social psychology, that I turn my attention. For in effect, my interpretative operation hinges on a dismantling Of the decorative as a metaphor of the transformative or constitutive moment of the subject. That is, I break down the seamlessness of the decorative into a set of semantic components or fragments significant in the individual biography, yet silenced by the totalizing, intra-textual imperative of expressivity. What one finds in these paintings is that despite all attempts at expurgating intention in order to distill the aesthetic, an intentional structure can be found lying just under the surface, bound to the individual life lived, and functioning on a metonymic or associative level. It is toward the sobering question of materialism that I continually return. For if Greenberg's interest in Sullivanian Interpersonal Psychiatry provides an initial framework for addressing the problems of painting after abstract expressionism, it also provides an entrance to more specific questions about the transformative which Pollock entertained in terms of Jungian therapy and Gestalt psychology, which Louis' fascination with Rorschach Psychodiagnostics summoned, arid that Noland's stake in Reichian therapy amounted to. Undoubtedly the point is, that the aesthetic, if an image of plenitude, if a bearer of the Utopian impulse, is always paradoxically inscribed by the trace of a material history that precedes it, that renders it utterly contingent.

description: In this paper, we illustrate how to enhance an existing state-of-the-art modeling language and tool for the Internet of Things (IoT), called ThingML, to support machine learning on the modeling level. To this aim, we extend the Domain-Specific Language (DSL) of ThingML, as well as its code generation framework. Our DSL allows one to define things, which are in charge of carrying out data analytics. Further, our code generators can automatically produce the complete implementation in Java and Python. The generated Python code is responsible for data analytics and employs APIs of machine learning libraries, such as Keras, Tensorflow and Scikit Learn. Our prototype is available as open source software on Github.

description: In the present paper, we investigate the fundamental trade-off of identification, secrecy, storage, and privacy-leakage rates in biometric identification systems for hidden or remote Gaussian sources. We introduce a technique for deriving the capacity region of these rates by converting the system to one where the data flow is in one-way direction. Also, we provide numerical calculations of three different examples for the generated-secret model. The numerical results imply that it seems hard to achieve both high secrecy and small privacy-leakage rates simultaneously. In addition, as special cases, the characterization coincides with several known results in previous studies.

description: In the series La_{2/3-x}Tb_{x}Ca_{1/3}MnO_{3}, it is known that the compositions are ferromagnetic for smaller values of x and show spin glass characteristics at larger values of x. Our studies on the magnetic properties of various compositions in the La_{2/3-x}Tb_{x}Ca_{1/3}MnO_{3} series show that the cross over from ferromagnetic to spin glass region takes place above x ~ 1/8. Also, a low temperature anomaly at 30 K, observed in the ac susceptibility curves, disappears for compositions above this critical value of x. A mixed phase region coexists in the narrow compositional range 0.1 <= x <= 0.125, indicating that the ferromagnetic to spin glass cross over is not abrupt.

Beyond the adiabatic limit in systems with fast environments: a $τ$-leaping algorithm

description: We propose a $τ$-leaping simulation algorithm for stochastic systems subject to fast environmental changes. Similar to conventional $τ$-leaping the algorithm proceeds in discrete time steps, but as a principal addition it captures environmental noise beyond the adiabatic limit. The key idea is to treat the input rates for the $τ$-leaping as (clipped) Gaussian random variables with first and second moments constructed from the environmental process. In this way, each step of the algorithm retains environmental stochasticity to sub-leading order in the time scale separation between system and environment. We test the algorithm on several toy examples with discrete and continuous environmental states, and find good performance in the regime of fast environmental dynamics. At the same time, the algorithm requires significantly less computing time than full simulations of the combined system and environment. In this context we also discuss several methods for the simulation of stochastic population dynamics in time-varying environments with continuous states.

description: We use a large sample of 174 Wolf-Rayet (WR) galaxies drawn from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey to study whether and how the slope of the stellar initial mass function depends on metallicity. We calculate for each object its oxygen abundance according to which we divide our sample into four metallicity subsamples. For each subsample, we then measure three quantities: the equivalent width of \hb emission line, the equivalent width of WR bump around 4650Å, and the WR bump-to-\hb intensity ratio, and compare to the predictions of the same quantities by evolutionary synthesis models of Schaerer & Vacca. Such comparisons lead to a clear dependence of the slope of initial mass function ($α$) on metallicity in that galaxies at higher metallicities tend to have steeper initial mass functions, with the slope index ranging from $α\sim$1.00 for the lowest metallicity of $Z=0.001$ to $α\sim$3.30 for the highest metallicity $Z=0.02$. We have carefully examined the possible sources of systematic error either in models or in our observational measurements and shown that these sources do not change this result.

description: Fifty years ago, John von Neumann compared the architecture of the brain with that of computers that he invented and which is still in use today. In those days, the organisation of computers was based on concepts of brain organisation. Here, we give an update on current results on the global organisation of neural systems. For neural systems, we outline how the spatial and topological architecture of neuronal and cortical networks facilitates robustness against failures, fast processing, and balanced network activation. Finally, we discuss mechanisms of self-organization for such architectures. After all, the organization of the brain might again inspire computer architecture.

description: In this paper, we present the current position of the research project ML-Quadrat, which aims to extend the methodology, modeling language and tool support of ThingML - an open source modeling tool for IoT/CPS - to address Machine Learning needs for the IoT applications. Currently, ThingML offers a modeling language and tool support for modeling the components of the system, their communication interfaces as well as their behaviors. The latter is done through state machines. However, we argue that in many cases IoT/CPS services involve system components and physical processes, whose behaviors are not well understood in order to be modeled using state machines. Hence, quite often a data-driven approach that enables inference based on the observed data, e.g., using Machine Learning is preferred. To this aim, ML-Quadrat integrates the necessary Machine Learning concepts into ThingML both on the modeling level (syntax and semantics of the modeling language) and on the code generators level. We plan to support two target platforms for code generation regarding Stream Processing and Complex Event Processing, namely Apache SAMOA and Apama.

description: Modeling the computational platforms is necessary to analyze the execution 
characteristics of systems developed using a model-based approach. 
In this paper, we introduce a novel platform modeling language: PML 
that is based on (a) transformational concepts borrowed from graph 
transformation languages, and (b) generative concepts from platform modeling, 
like 'kernel skeleton'. PML relies on higher-level, compact constructs that 
represent a special case of model transformations, and which are then used to 
specify platform semantics. 
The paper also illustrates how PML constructs can be compiled into lower-level 
constructs of more traditional model transformational languages, such as GReAT.

description: Recently, many researchers are working on semantics preserving model transformation. In the field of graph transformation one can think of translating graph grammars written in one approach to a behaviourally equivalent graph grammar in another approach. In this paper we translate graph grammars developed with the GROOVE tool to AGG graph grammars by first investigating the set of core graph transformation concepts supported by both tools. Then, we define what it means for two graph grammars to be behaviourally equivalent, and for the regarded approaches we actually show how to handle different definitions of both - application conditions and graph structures. The translation itself is explained by means of intuitive examples.

Using Semantic Anchoring to Verify Behavior Preservation in Graph Transformations
Creators: name: Narayanan, Anantha
name: Karsai, Gabor
Publisher: name: European Association of Software Science and Technology
Year: 2006

description: Graph transformation is often used to transform domain models from one domain specific language (DSML) to another. In some cases, the DSMLs are based on a formalism that has many implementation variants, such as Statecharts. For instance, it could be necessary to transform iLogix Statechart models into Matlab Stateflow models. The preservation of behavior of the models is crucial in such transformations. Bisimulation has previously been demonstrated as an approach to verifying behavior preservation, and semantic anchoring is an approach to specifying the dynamic semantics of DSMLs. We propose a method to verify behavior preservation, using bisimulation in conjunction with semantic anchoring. We will consider two hypothetical variants of the Statecharts formalism, and specify the operational semantics of each variant by semantic anchoring, using Abstract State Machines as a common semantic framework. We then establish bisimulation properties to verify if the behavior models of the source and target Statechart models are equivalent for a particular execution of the transformation.

Search Trees for Distributed Graph Transformation Systems

Publisher: name: European Association of Software Science and Technology
Year: 2006

description: Graph transformation systems, like PROGRES and Fujaba, can be used for modeling software systems of various domains, and support the automatic generation of executable code.
A graph transformation rule is executed only if the pattern of the transformation's left-hand side is found in the graph.
The search for the pattern has an exponential worst-case complexity.
In many cases, the average complexity can be reduced using search tree algorithms in the code generation phase.
When modeling distributed graph transformations, the communication overhead between the coupled applications largely affects the pattern matching performance.
Therefore, we present an approach for adapting existing search tree algorithms for the efficient search of distributed graph patterns.
Our algorithm divides the distributed graph pattern into several sub-patterns such that every sub-pattern affects solely the graph of exactly one coupled application. 
The results of these sub-patterns are used to determine the match for the entire graph pattern.

description: We intend to investigate separately the photospheric and circumstellar (CS) magnetic field components in seven Herbig Ae stars. The study is based on low-resolution (R ~ 2000 and 4000) spectropolarimetric data collected from 2003 to 2005 at the Very Large Telescope (ESO, Chile) with the multi-mode instrument FORS1. We show that the spectropolarimetric results strongly depend on the level of CS contribution to the stellar spectra. We have improved the determination accuracy of magnetic fields up to the 7 sigma level in the two Herbig Ae stars HD139614 and HD144432, observed in 2005 when these objects were at a low level state of their CS activity. We have established that at a higher level state of CS activity the polarisation signatures are related mainly to the CS matter. The presence of CS polarisation signatures formed in the stellar wind supports the assumption that the magnetic centrifuge is a principal mechanism of wind acceleration. We conclude that the most effective way to investigate the magnetism of Herbig Ae stars is to monitor their spectropolarimetric behaviour at different states of CS activity. Obviously, higher resolution spectropolarimetric observations would extend the sample of spectral lines to be used for the measurements of magnetic fields at different levels in the stellar atmosphere and CS envelope. Such observations will give a more complete insight into the magnetic topology in Herbig Ae stars.

description: The charm quark structure function $F^c_2$ and the longitudinal structure function $F_l^p$ are directly sensitive to the gluon content of proton and therefore are crucial in understanding of proton structure function, in particular at low momentum transfer $Q^2$ and low Bjorken x. In the framework of perturbative QCD the charm structure function is calculated in the leading order (LO) and the proton structure function is investigated in the next leading order (NLO) at small x region. The valence quark distribution is obtained from the relativistic quark-exchange model. The calculated $F_2^c(x,Q^2)$, $F_2^p(x,Q^2)$ and $F_L^p(x,Q^2)$, are compared with the present available experimental data.

Two versions of such theory are constructed: the first one describes the sequence of radiation and matter domination, decceleration-acceleration transition and acceleration era and the second one is reconstructed from exact Lambda-CDM cosmology. The asymptotic behaviour of first model at late times coincides with the theory containing positive and negative powers of curvature while second model approaches to General Relativity without singularity at zero curvature.

LFV interactions between the Standard Model sector and unparticles can explain the difference of experimental value of muon g-2 from the Standard Model prediction. While the same couplings generate LFV tau decay, we found that LFV coupling can be of O(0.1 ... 1) without conflict with experimental bounds of LFV tau decay if the scaling dimension of unparticle operator d_{U} > 1.6.

Studies on isoniazid-induced hepatotoxicity in rabbits
Creators: name: Sarich, Troy Casimir
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: Approximately one-third of the world's population harbors the tuberculosis mycobacterium and it is estimated that tuberculosis kills over 2.5 million persons per year worldwide. Isoniazid is widely used in the prophylaxis and treatment of tuberculosis in this population. A major risk of isoniazid-therapy is the onset of an unpredictable and potentially fatal hepatotoxicity in 1-2% of individuals. Although the existence of this toxicity has been widely recognized for over 25 years, its mechanism remains unknown. Thus, the hepatotoxicity remains neither preventable nor treatable. Our laboratory has developed a reliable model of isoniazid-induced hepatotoxicity in rabbits which closely resembles the toxicity in humans. This model consists of repeated injections of isoniazid over a two day period along with examination of isoniazid-induced pathological changes before, during and after exposure to isoniazid. The purpose of this thesis was to characterize the biochemical and pathological changes induced by isoniazid and to identify and attempt to alter toxicologically important enzymatic steps in the metabolism of isoniazid. The main findings were as follows: 1. Isoniazid causes hepatic cell damage, hepatic steatosis and hypertriglyceridemia in rabbits. 2. Plasma levels of the isoniazid-metabolite hydrazine, but not acetylhydrazine, correlated significantly with the severity of isoniazid-induced hepatic cell damage. 3. Pre- and co-treatment of isoniazid-treated rabbits with L-thyroxine increases the activity of NADPH cytochrome P-450 reductase (reductase). 4. An increase in activity of reductase was associated with a decrease, rather than the expected increase, in the severity of isoniazid-induced hepatotoxicity. 5. Isoniazid administration inhibits cytochrome P-450 (CYP) 1A1/2 and CYP2E1 activities in rabbits. 6. Pretreatment of isoniazid-treated rabbits with bis-p-nitrophenyl phosphate (BNPP) (a proposed inhibitor of isoniazid-amidase which hydrolyses isoniazid and its metabolites to hydrazine) effectively decreased plasma levels of isoniazid-derived hydrazine and decreased the severity of isoniazid-induced hepatic cell damage, hepatic steatosis and hypertriglyceridemia. 7. In vitro studies revealed that BNPP acts as an irreversibly acting non-competitive antagonist (IC50 approximately 2 JUM) of isoniazid-amidase. In conclusion, hydrazine is most likely the main causative agent in isoniazidinduced hepatotoxicity in rabbits. The results in this animal model are in accord with recent data on isoniazid-hepatotoxicity in humans.

description: The effect of anchoring group on the electrical conductance of a single molecule bridging two Au electrodes was studied using di-substituted (isocyanide (CN-), thiol (S-) or cyanide (NC-)) benzene. The conductance of a single Au/1,4-diisocyanobenzene/Au junction anchored by isocyanide via a C atom (junction with the Au-CN bond) was $3 \times 10 ^{-3} G_{0}$ ($2e^{2}/h$). The value was comparable to $4 \times 10 ^{-3} G_{0}$ of a single Au/1,4-benzenedithiol/Au junction with the Au-S bond. The Au/1,4-dicyanobenzene/Au molecular junction with the Au-NC bond did not show well-defined conductance values. The metal-molecule bond strength was estimated by the distance over which the molecular junction was stretched before breakdown. The stretched length of the molecular junction with the Au-CN bond was comparable to that of the Au junction, indicating that the Au-CN bond was stronger than the Au-Au bond.

description: Coronal mass ejections (CMEs) are large-scale explosions of the coronal magnetic field. It is believed that magnetic reconnection significantly builds up the core structure of CMEs, a magnetic flux rope, during the eruption. However, the quantitative evolution of the flux rope, particularly its toroidal flux, is still unclear. In this paper, we study the evolution of the toroidal flux of the CME flux rope for four events. The toroidal flux is estimated as the magnetic flux in the footpoint region of the flux rope, which is identified by a method that simultaneously takes the coronal dimming and the hook of the flare ribbon into account. We find that the toroidal flux of the CME flux rope for all four events shows a two-phase evolution: a rapid increasing phase followed by a decreasing phase. We further compare the evolution of the toroidal flux with that of the Geostationary Operational Environmental Satellites soft X-ray flux and find that they are basically synchronous in time, except that the peak of the former is somewhat delayed. The results suggest that the toroidal flux of the CME flux rope may be first quickly built up by the reconnection mainly taking place in the sheared overlying field and then reduced by the reconnection among the twisted field lines within the flux rope, as enlightened by a recent 3D magnetohydrodynamic simulation of CMEs.

description: We study an ultracold Bose gas in the presence of 1D disorder for repulsive inter-atomic interactions varying from zero to the Thomas-Fermi regime. We show that for weak interactions the Bose gas populates a finite number of localized single-particle Lifshits states, while for strong interactions a delocalized disordered Bose-Einstein condensate is formed. We discuss the schematic quantum-state diagram and derive the equations of state for various regimes.

description: The quasi-one-dimensional spin ladder compounds, BaFe$_2$S$_3$ and BaFe$_2$Se$_3$, are investigated by infrared spectroscopy and density functional theory (DFT) calculations. We observe strong anisotropic electronic properties and an optical gap in the leg direction that is gradually filled above the antiferromagnetic (afm) ordering temperature, turning the systems into a metallic phase. Combining the optical data with the DFT calculations we associate the optical gap feature with the $p$-$d$ transition that appears only in the afm ordered state. Hence, the insulating ground state along the leg direction is attributed to Slater physics rather than Mott-type correlations.

description: A method is proposed to select the suitable sets of potential parameters for a one-dimensional mesoscopic Hamiltonian model, first introduced to describe the DNA melting transition and later extended to investigate thermodynamic and dynamical properties of nucleic acids. The DNA base pair fluctuations are considered as time dependent trajectories whose initial condition sets the no crossing constraint enforced in the path integral for the first-passage probability. Performing the path integration at room temperature, relations are established between the cutoff on the amplitude of the base pair fluctuations and the model parameters. In particular, it is shown that the non-linear stacking parameter should be $\sim 1$. The formalism here developed may be applied to compute the lifetime of open base pairs in three-dimensional helical models for DNA molecules.

Evolutionary Layout of Graph Transformation Sequences

description: Graph transformation is used in various different research
areas and has been implemented in several tool environments. However, the layout of graph transformation sequences is often perceived as not optimal and remains to be a difficult task. This is partly due to the slightly different requirements for layouting graph transformation sequences compared to standard graph sequences. In this paper, we clearly define these special requirements and present a layout algorithm which fulfills them. This layout algorithm allows the user to keep track of changes during transformation steps by introducing a concept of node aging and protection of senior node positions in the layout. Furthermore, this layout algorithm introduces a concept of layout patterns. We extended the well-known spring embedder layout algorithm by these new concepts and implemented the new algorithm in AGG, an environment for Attributed Graph Grammars. The layout algorithm has been tested with various
graph grammars. A brief outlook describes how this layout algorithm can also be used for different kinds of graph sequences, e.g. sequences of successively developing class diagrams.

Influence of the disorder on tracer dispersion in a flow channel

description: Tracer dispersion is studied experimentally in periodic or disordered arrays of beads in a capillary tube. Dispersion is measured from light absorption variations near the outlet following a steplike injection of dye at the inlet. Visualizations using dye and pure glycerol are also performed in similar geometries. Taylor dispersion is dominant both in an empty tube and for a periodic array of beads: the dispersivity $l\_d$ increases with the Péclet number $Pe$ respectively as $Pe$ and $Pe^{0.82}$ and is larger by a factor of 8 in the second case. In a disordered packing of smaller beads (1/3 of the tube diameter) geometrical dispersion associated to the disorder of the flow field is dominant with a constant value of $l\_d$ reached at high Péclet numbers. The minimum dispersivity is slightly higher than in homogeneous nonconsolidated packings of small grains, likely due heterogeneities resulting from wall effects. In a disordered packing with the same beads as in the periodic configuration, $l\_d$ is up to 20 times lower than in the latter and varies as $Pe^α$ with $α= 0.5$ or $= 0.69$ (depending on the fluid viscosity). A simple model accounting for this latter result is suggested.

Specifying Distributed Graph Transformation Systems

description: Graph transformation systems simplify software development by modeling the system in a visual and declarative language. Despite their expressiveness, they fail to support specifiers in modeling distributed  systems. As software projects increasingly demand support for distribution, we aim to fill this gap for graph transformation systems. With our concepts, specifiers can visually specify graph transformations affecting multiple applications simultoniously. Based on this visual specification, the corresponding distribution to the different a pplications is automatically derived. We introduce our concepts in general and demonstrate their applicability by means of an example.

description: We propose an extension of the join calculus with pattern matching on algebraic data types. Our initial motivation is twofold: to provide an intuitive semantics of the interaction between concurrency and pattern matching; to define a practical compilation scheme from extended join definitions into ordinary ones plus ML pattern matching. To assess the correctness of our compilation scheme, we develop a theory of the applied join calculus, a calculus with value passing and value matching. We implement this calculus as an extension of the current JoCaml system.
