description: This thesis is an alternative approach to preservation that critiques the existing restoration and conservation theory of heritage. Theories focus on permanent reconstruction but lack sustainability regarding the rapidly changing context. In the radical preservation from Rem Koolhaas and Fred Scott, heritage is an irreversible asset that needs preservation as future protection, not present reparation. With the threat of shrinking preservation intervals and climate change, a new preservation vision must adapt to the changing context; if not, heritage is soon to be obsolete or erased. This thesis research is supplementary to Rem Koolhaas’s theory concerning future emergency environmental change resulting in a change in cultural context. The time to preserve is ‘now’, before the context, time and heritage are changed by the new cultural context of the next century. This thesis focuses on the flooding context in Venice as both a challenge and an opportunity for future preservation. Venice’s horizontal water culture is an asset. Its vertical relationship, though seen as a threat, can also be an asset and opportunity for cultural adaptation. Besides the typical preservation work, the supplementation technique deployed by Rem Koolhaas will apply to not the current cultural context but the foreseen new cultural context of 200 years onward.

description: The equation of state and radiative opacities of partially ionized, strongly magnetized hydrogen plasmas, presented in a previous paper [ApJ 585, 955 (2003), astro-ph/0212062] for the magnetic field strengths 8.e11 G < B < 3.e13 G, are extended to the field strengths 3.e13 G < B < 1.e15 G, relevant for magnetars. The first- and second-order thermodynamic functions and radiative opacities are calculated and tabulated for 5.e5 < T < 4.e7 K in a wide range of densities. We show that bound-free transitions give an important contribution to the opacities in the considered range of B in the outer neutron-star atmosphere layers. Unlike the case of weaker fields, bound-bound transitions are unimportant.

description: Pyrite-type PdSb$_2$ with a nonsymmorphic cubic structure has been predicted to host six-fold-degenerate exotic fermions beyond the Dirac and Weyl fermions. Though magnetotransport measurements on PdSb$_2$ suggest its topologically nontrivial character, direct spectroscpic study of its band structure remains absent. Here, by utilizing high-resolution angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy, we present a systematic study on its bulk and surface electronic structure. Through careful comparison with first-principles calculations, we verify the existence of six-fold fermions in PdSb$_2$, which are formed by three doubly degenerate bands centered at the $R$ point in the Brillouin zone. These bands exhibit parabolic dispersion close to six-fold fermion nodes, in sharp contrast to previously reported ones in chiral fermion materials. Furthermore, our data reveal no protected Fermi arcs in PdSb$_2$, which is compatible with its achiral structure. Our findings provide a remarkable platform for study of new topological fermions and indicate their potential applications.

description: Impacts of cattle production vary among different production systems, but data on their distribution is scarce for most world regions. In this work, we combine datasets on cattle vaccination locations and land cover in a regression framework to define and map major cattle production systems in the Argentinean Dry Chaco. We also explore how cattle occurrence relates to spatial determinants. Results indicate that the region harbors about 5.5 million heads. Cattle density was mainly described by the share of pasture (69.9%), cropland (28.1%) and aridity (23.8%). We identified 12-major cattle production systems: six cow-calf, three whole-cycle, and three fattening systems. Of these, four systems had high woodland cover (>85%). Data generated is available in a website. Understanding the distribution of cattle production systems is important to assess the environmental impacts of beef production at broad scales. Integrating vaccination data with land-cover information provides a promising avenue to identify livestock systems.
A Data Curation Application Using DDI: The DAMES Data Curation Tool for Organising Specialist Social Science Data Resources

Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2010

description: This paper will present the public access metadata tools and services developed by the UK's 'Data Management through e-Social Science' research Node (www.dames.org.uk). Requirements of the Node are to curate and distribute data resources linked with a number of specialist topics (data on occupations; educational qualifications; ethnicity and immigration; social care; and e-Health data). Heterogeneous data formats and structures can be identified. Most resources are generated through academic research, and are typically freely distributed, but lacking in firm standards of preparation. Services are required to collect, process, and subsequently distribute these data resources for the benefit of social science research. Metadata tools and services have been prepared to generate metadata on the relevant resources. This occurs principally in the form of an online 'data curation tool' which is intended to be accessible to non-specialists. Metadata collected through the tool is stored in DDI format (DDI 3), through which it can subsequently be exploited for further data analysis and organisational tasks, including facilitating the further distribution of the data. This paper will describe the currently available tools, and ongoing issues in designing and employng these metadata-oriented tools and services.

description: Unambiguously identifying molecules in spectra is of fundamental importance for a variety of scientific and industrial uses. Interpreting atmospheric spectra for the remote detection of volatile compounds requires information about the spectrum of each relevant molecule. However, spectral data currently exist for a few hundred molecules and only a fraction of those have complete spectra (e.g. H$_2$O, NH$_3$). Consequently, molecular detections in atmospheric spectra remain vulnerable to false positives, false negatives, and missassignments. There is a key need for spectral data for a broad range of molecules. Given how challenging it is to obtain high-resolution molecular spectra, there is great value in creating intermediate approximate spectra that can provide a starting point for the analysis of atmospheric spectra. Using a combination of experimental measurements, organic chemistry, and quantum mechanics, RASCALL (Rapid Approximate Spectral Calculations for ALL) is a computational approach that provides approximate spectral data for any given molecule, including thousands of potential atmospheric gases, in seconds. RASCALL 1.0 simulates molecular spectra by interpreting functional group data from experimental and theoretical sources to estimate the position and strength of molecular bands. The RASCALL 1.0 spectra consist of approximate band centers and qualitative intensities. RASCALL can also be used to study spectral patterns between molecules, and to highlight ambiguities in molecular detections. The RASCALL catalogue, and its preliminary version RASCALL 1.0, contains spectral data for more molecules than any other publicly available database, with applications in all fields interested in the detection of molecules in the gas phase. The preliminary catalogue of molecular data and associated documentation are freely available online and will be routinely updated.

description: Providing sustainable access to scientific data and research-related information can spawn new opportunities for their use by current and future scientific, educational, and decision-making communities. Submitting scientific data for ingest into a digital data repository prior to the end of a research, data collection, or data creation project facilitates collaborative preparation of data and metadata while project resources are still available. Engaging data producers earlier in the scientific data lifecycle should improve preparation of scientific data and metadata for future use and dissemination. We describe here the design of a data submission and workflow system aimed at providing flexible capabilities for organizing the contributions of interdisciplinary producers of scientific data, reviewers, and archivists. The system provides a framework for iterative improvement in the range and quality of information obtained from data sources as data products are developed and finalized and for integration of this workflow with selection and appraisal processes by community reviewers and digital archivists, taking into account both discovery and preservation metadata needs.

description: This paper extends the theory of false discovery rates (FDR) pioneered by Benjamini and Hochberg [J. Roy. Statist. Soc. Ser. B 57 (1995) 289-300]. We develop a framework in which the False Discovery Proportion (FDP)--the number of false rejections divided by the number of rejections--is treated as a stochastic process. After obtaining the limiting distribution of the process, we demonstrate the validity of a class of procedures for controlling the False Discovery Rate (the expected FDP). We construct a confidence envelope for the whole FDP process. From these envelopes we derive confidence thresholds, for controlling the quantiles of the distribution of the FDP as well as controlling the number of false discoveries. We also investigate methods for estimating the p-value distribution.

description: This paper will describe the ongoing work of an innovative partnership between the Irish Qualitative Data Archive and the Tallaght West Childhood Development Initiative (based in west Dublin). RACcER (Re-Use and Archiving of Complex Community-Based Evaluation Research) aims to explore and implement new approaches to meeting the ethical and practical challenges involved in archiving, and creating appropriate levels of access to the complex qualitative and contextual data generated in the rigorous evaluation of a major community-based childhood intervention strategy. The project objectives include: documenting the concerns and expectations of research funding agencies, researchers and potential users; evaluating and enhancing IQDA protocols and procedures, especially in relation to evaluation research, through a participatory process of preparing qualitative data from CDI for archiving; dissemination of the outcomes of the project through the CDI and IQDA websites. It is intended that the partnership will act as a major demonstrator project for the promotion of qualitative data archiving and re-use across the Irish social science communities. The project has been co-funded by the Irish Research Council for the Humanities and Social Sciences (IRCHSS) and Tallaght West CDI.

description: Background: The main complication of external ventricular drains (EVD) is infection. Implementation of evidence-based guidelines for central venous catheter (CVC) care resulted in significant declines in infections. We tested a comparable approach to EVD infection rates. Methods: An initial retrospective study evaluated the existing EVD infection rate, and identified contributory risk factors. Based on our results, and in corroboration with existing literature, an EVD care bundle was developed and implemented. A prospective study was then conducted to identify improvement. Results: A total of 275 EVDs (120 pre- and 155 post-EVD care bundle) inserted over a period of 1532 days were included. Pre-care bundle, the infection rate was 27%, with the predominant factor associated with infection being number cerebrospinal fluid sampling episodes. Following introduction of the EVD care bundle, the infection rate declined to 10% (p p = 0.003). The infection rate was not found to be significantly associated with the number of accesses during this period (p = 0.910). Conclusions: Introduction of a well-implemented EVD care bundle can significantly decrease EVD infection rates.

Predictor effects need not be limited to the mean function and smoothing is not required. The general approach is based on sufficient dimension reduction, the idea being to replace the predictor vector with a lower-dimensional version without loss of information on the regression. Methodology using sliced inverse regression is developed in detail.

description: One of the places data archives experience emerging new and challenging data formats is within qualitative research. New social technologies such as e.g. Facebook, debates on the internet and photographing on mobile phones produce data for qualitative research project. The Danish Data Archive (DDA) has a long standing ambition to archive qualitative data alongside with quantitative data. To welcome qualitative data we need knowledge about variations in data formats which we must be able to support and archive. The article will be based on a study of data formats and the use of CAQDAS – Computer assisted Qualitative Data Analysis Software – in Danish, empirically based social science PhD thesis published in 2009. The study will be related to comparable studies carried out in national and international contexts as well as initiatives concerning archiving of qualitative data among our fellow data archives.

description: We unify the quantum Zeno effect (QZE) and the "bang-bang" (BB) decoupling method for suppressing decoherence in open quantum systems: in both cases strong coupling to an external system or apparatus induces a dynamical superselection rule that partitions the open system's Hilbert space into quantum Zeno subspaces. Our unification makes use of von Neumann's ergodic theorem and avoids making any of the symmetry assumptions usually made in discussions of BB. Thus we are able to generalize BB to arbitrary fast and strong pulse sequences, requiring no symmetry, and to show the existence of two alternatives to pulsed BB: continuous decoupling, and pulsed measurements. Our unified treatment enables us to derive limits on the efficacy of the BB method: we explicitly show that the inverse QZE implies that BB can in some cases accelerate, rather than inhibit, decoherence.

Background Field Method in Stochastic Quantization of N = 1 Supersymmetric Yang-Mills Theory
Creators: name: Nakazawa, Naohito
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2003
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Theory (hep-th)

description: In the previous works, we proposed the stochastic quantization method (SQM) approach to N=1 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory (SSYM). In four dimensions, in particular, we obtained the superfield Langevin equation and the corresponding Fokker-Planck equation which describe the underlying stochastic process manifestly preserving the global supersymmetry as well as the local gauge symmetry. The stochastic gauge fixing procedure was also applied to SSYM_4 in the superfield formalism. In this note, we apply the background field methd to SSYM_4 in terms of the stochastic action principle in SQM approach. The one-loop $β$-function for the gauge coupling agrees with that given by the path-integral approach, thereby confirming that the stochastic gauge fixing procedure with the background local gauge invariant Zwanziger's gauge fixing functions simulates the contributions from the Nielsen-Kallosh ghost as well as the Faddeev-Popov ghost at the one-loop level. We also show the equivalence of the stochastic effective action in the background field method to the standard one in SQM.

How to Achieve Economic Sustainability in Digital Archiving?
Creators: name: Laurents Sesink
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2010

description: Since its establishment in 2005, Data Archiving Networked Services (DANS) has been storing and making research data in the arts and humanities and social sciences permanently accessible. To this end DANS itself develops permanent archiving services, stimulates others to follow suit, and works closely with data managers to ensure as much data as possible is made freely available for use in scientific research. Economic sustainability is a key issue for DANS. For this reason DANS initiated a research project in 2007 to have a better understanding of the costs of digital archiving. DANS adopted and adjusted two managerial models, the Balanced Scorecard (BSC) and the Activity Based Costing (ABC) model. The design of the ABC model is based on DANS activities which are categorized in five clusters: Administration, Networked Services, ICT (RD and maintenance), Data Acquisition and Archiving. The Balanced Scorecard of DANS builds on the following business perspectives: Impact, Enablers/Users, Processes and Supporters. Fifteen success factors are allocated to them. The success factors are further specified with over forty performance indicators. During this presentation we will explain how the data generated by the models can be combined and can be used as decision making instruments regarding project specific costs, funding-related decisions, and predicting expenses.

description: Selective excitation of a diffusive system's transmission eigenchannels enables manipulation of its internal energy distribution. The fluctuations and correlations of the eigenchannels' spatial profiles, however, remain unexplored so far. Here we show that the depth profiles of high-transmission eigenchannels exhibit low realization-to-realization fluctuations. Furthermore, our experimental and numerical studies reveal the existence of inter-channel correlations, which are significant for low-transmission eigenchannels. Because high-transmission eigenchannels are robust and independent from other eigenchannels, they can reliably deliver energy deep inside turbid media.

description: In multi-user millimeter wave (mmWave) multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) systems, hybrid precoding is a crucial task to lower the complexity and cost while achieving a sufficient sum-rate. Previous works on hybrid precoding were usually based on optimization or greedy approaches. These methods either provide higher complexity or have sub-optimum performance. Moreover, the performance of these methods mostly relies on the quality of the channel data. In this work, we propose a deep learning (DL) framework to improve the performance and provide less computation time as compared to conventional techniques. In fact, we design a convolutional neural network for MIMO (CNN-MIMO) that accepts as input an imperfect channel matrix and gives the analog precoder and combiners at the output. The procedure includes two main stages. First, we develop an exhaustive search algorithm to select the analog precoder and combiners from a predefined codebook maximizing the achievable sum-rate. Then, the selected precoder and combiners are used as output labels in the training stage of CNN-MIMO where the input-output pairs are obtained. We evaluate the performance of the proposed method through numerous and extensive simulations and show that the proposed DL framework outperforms conventional techniques. Overall, CNN-MIMO provides a robust hybrid precoding scheme in the presence of imperfections regarding the channel matrix. On top of this, the proposed approach exhibits less computation time with comparison to the optimization and codebook based approaches.

On the Shapes of Interstellar Grains: Modeling Extinction and Polarization by Spheroids and Continuous Distributions of Ellipsoids

description: Although interstellar grains are known to be aspherical, their actual shapes remain poorly constrained. We assess whether three continuous distributions of ellipsoidal shapes from the literature are suitable for describing the shapes of interstellar grains. Randomly-selected shapes from each distribution are shown as illustrations. The often-used Bohren-Huffman CDE includes a very large fraction of extreme shapes: fully 10% of random draws have axial ratio $a_3/a_1 > 19.7$, and 5% have $a_3/a_1 > 33$. The CDE2 distribution includes a much smaller fraction of extreme shapes, and appears to be more realistic. For each of the three CDEs considered, we derive shape-averaged cross sections for extinction and polarization in the Rayleigh limit. Finally, we describe a method for "synthesizing" a dielectric function for an assumed shape or shape distribution if the actual absorption cross sections per grain volume in the Rayleigh limit are known from observations. This synthetic dielectric function predicts the wavelength dependence of polarization, which can then be compared to observations to constrain the grain shape.

description: Motivated by real-world applications of unmanned aerial vehicles, this paper introduces a decentralized control mechanism to guide steering control of autonomous agents maneuvering in the vicinity of multiple moving entities (e.g. other autonomous agents) and stationary entities (e.g. fixed beacons or points of references) in a three-dimensional environment. The proposed control law, which can be perceived as a modification of the three-dimensional constant bearing (CB) pursuit law, provides a means to allocate simultaneous attention to multiple entities. We investigate the behaviour of the closed-loop dynamics for a system with one agent referencing two beacons, as well as a two-agent mutual pursuit system wherein each agent employs the beacon-referenced CB pursuit law with regards to the other agent and a stationary beacon. Under certain assumptions on the associated control parameters, we demonstrate that this problem admits circling equilibria with agents moving on circular orbits with a common radius, in planes perpendicular to a common axis passing through the beacons. As the common radius and distances from the beacon are determined by the choice of parameters in the pursuit law, this approach provides a means to engineer desired formations in a three-dimensional setting.

description: In many areas of academic research, there is a growing emphasis on sharing data and other materials. However, tracking which researchers affiliated with a given institution are sharing, what they are sharing, and what tools they are using to share remains extremely challenging. To help inform the support services offered to affiliated researchers, I attempted to track the research data shared by Stanford Medicine in 2020. In this talk, I will describe the methods I used, the (incomplete but hopefully representative) information I was able to collect, and how this information will be used moving forward. Spoiler alert, I sorted through thousands of journal articles and data availability statements and discovered data in some unexpected places.

description: We obtain the solution of a relativistic wave equation and compare it with the solution of the Schroedinger equation for a source with a sharp onset and excitation frequencies below cut-off. A scaling of position and time reduces to a single case all the (below cut-off) nonrelativistic solutions, but no such simplification holds for the relativistic equation, so that qualitatively different ``shallow'' and ``deep'' tunneling regimes may be identified relativistically. The nonrelativistic forerunner at a position beyond the penetration length of the asymptotic stationary wave does not tunnel; nevertheless, it arrives at the traversal (semiclassical or Büttiker-Landauer) time "tau". The corresponding relativistic forerunner is more complex: it oscillates due to the interference between two saddle point contributions, and may be characterized by two times for the arrival of the maxima of lower and upper envelops. There is in addition an earlier relativistic forerunner, right after the causal front, which does tunnel. Within the penetration length, tunneling is more robust for the precursors of the relativistic equation.
Creation of an enhanced recovery after surgery protocol with Wilms tumours in low- and middle-income countries

description: Introduction - Enhanced Recovery After Surgery guidelines have been developed and shown to improve outcomes for many surgical procedures. Most existing guidelines have been created for patients in high-resource settings. There is a dearth of guidelines for pediatric populations particularly in low- and middleincome countries (LMIC). All children with Wilms tumours require resection for cure and therefore a perioperative care pathway can streamline care for all curative-intent nephrectomies. Methods – A two-round Delphi consensus of clinicians in LMICs was utilized to determine the scope and content of recommendations for an enhanced recovery protocol for children with Wilms tumours undergoing nephrectomy in LMICs. Consensus was predefined a priori as ≥70% of panelists indicating a topic or recommendation should be included. Results – Twenty-six topics met consensus for inclusion and were consolidated into twenty recommendations for implementation in the preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative setting. Predominant themes included perioperative nutrition, surgical safety, anesthetic concerns, and interdisciplinary oncology care. Ten participants completed round one and six completed round two. All recommendations met consensus for inclusion after two rounds. Conclusions – A consensus-derived perioperative care pathway for children with Wilms tumours in low-resource settings is presented. Recommendations share many priorities with high-resource pathways, but also contain unique considerations for a low-resource setting.

description: We present central CaT, PaT, and CaT* indices for a sample of fifteen dwarf elliptical galaxies (dEs). Twelve of these have CaT* ~ 7 A and extend the negative correlation between the CaT* index and central velocity dispersion sigma, which was derived for bright ellipticals (Es), down to 20 < sigma < 55 km/s. For five dEs we have independent age and metallicity estimates. Four of these have CaT* ~ 7 A, much higher than expected from their low metallicities (-1.5 < [Z/H] < -0.5). The observed anti-correlation of CaT* as a function of sigma or Z is in flagrant disagreement with theory. We discuss some of the amendments that have been proposed to bring the theoretical predictions into agreement with the observed CaT*-values of bright Es and how they can be extended to incorporate also the observed CaT*-values of dEs. Moreover, 3 dEs in our sample have CaT* ~ 5 A, as would be expected for metal-poor stellar systems. Any theory for dE evolution will have to be able to explain the co-existence of low-CaT* and high-CaT* dEs at a given mean metallicity. This could be the first direct evidence that the dE population is not homogeneous, and that different evolutionary paths led to morphologically and kinematically similar but chemically distinct objects.

description: This paper analyzed the process of application marketing strategy, which is essentially competitive ability, the result of the election strategy of creating value. Under capacity means the capacity to set the source as an integrated business intelligence target activity. The selected strategy should allow the company to the best use of core competence relative to the opportunities in the external environment. In other words, that the company applied the strategy to existing and potential competitors can not successfully imitate, and thereby achieves a relatively permanent and sustainable competitive advantage. At the same time, the potential of the company successfully implemented when the resources and skills valuable, rare, difficult to imitate and difficult to be substitutes by competitors in the field in which the company carries out its business activity The aim of this paper is to explain planning decisions (strategies) that marketing managers can apply to companies to improve business performance and achieve excellent results by putting in the focus of the implementation of appropriate strategies.
Evidence for B+ -> omega l+ nu

description: We have searched for the decay B^+ -> omega l^+ nu in 78 fb^-1 of Y(4S) data (85.0 million BBbar events) accumulated with the Belle detector. The final state is fully reconstructed using the omega decay into pi^+ pi^- pi^0 and the detector hermeticity to infer the neutrino momentum. The signal yield is extracted by a two-dimensional fit to the lepton momentum and the invariant p^i+ pi^- pi^0 mass. The result of the fit depends on the form factor model assumed for the decay. Taking the average over three different models, 421 +/- 132 events are found in the data corresponding to a preliminary branching fraction of (1.4 +/- 0.4(stat) +/- 0.2(syst) +/- 0.3(model)) * 10^-4.

Effect of surface-active contaminants on radial thermocapillary flows

description: We study the thermocapillary creeping flow induced by a thermal gradient at the liquid-air interface in the presence of insoluble surfactants (impurities). Convective sweeping of the surfactants causes density inhomogeneities that confers in-plane elastic features to the interface. This mechanism is discussed for radially symmetric temperature fields, in both the deep and shallow water regimes. When mass transport is controlled by convection, it is found that surfactants are depleted from a region whose size is inversely proportional to the interfacial elasticity. Both the concentration and the velocity fields follow power laws at the border of the depleted region. Finally, it is shown that this singular behavior is smeared out when molecular diffusion is accounted for.
