description: We deduce general expressions for the line element of universe models with negative and vanishing spatial curvature described by conformally flat spacetime coordinates. The empty Milne universe model and models with dust, radiation and vacuum energy are exhibited. Discussing the existence of particle horizons we show that there is continual creation of space, matter and energy when conformal time is used in Friedmann-Robertson-Walker models with negative spatial curvature.

Back-in-the-land : space and anglophone Canada's professional farm theatres
Creators: name: Dunn, Katrina
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2016

description: At Anglophone Canada’s four professional farm theatres, performance often foregrounds relations between beings and landscapes in unusually rich and striking ways. In this thesis I argue that the success of these theatres lies largely in their ability to connect audiences affectively to the specific natural environments of their performance sites or regions, and to embody the stories held within these respective rural spaces. More particularly, they share the stories of two land-hungry eras: the settling of what is now Canadian soil by European colonizers, and the transformation of farming culture since 1950, including the back-to-the-land movement of the nineteen sixties and seventies. Four questions guide the analysis. What do the histories, geographies, mandates, programming and other artistic choices of these farm theatres reveal about each theatre's relationship with the land on which they perform? Do the theatres share any common impulses? What distinguishes their efforts and aesthetics? How does the land itself perform? Research presented in this study builds from spatial thought in theatre studies, archival research on the four theatres and their histories, inquiry into the material history of the theatres’ sites, and performance analyses of select productions. More particularly, I provide close readings of a single night’s offering in each theatre’s 2013 season. This includes, Peter Anderson’s Head Over Heels at the Caravan Farm Theatre near Armstrong, B.C.; the collective creation Beyond The Farm Show at the Blyth Festival Theatre in the village of Blyth, Ontario; Andrew Moodie’s The Real McCoy at 4th Line Theatre in Millbrook, Ontario; and both Shakespeare’s As You Like It and the Iliad by Fire by Ken Schwartz (from Homer) at Two Planks and Passion in Canning, Nova Scotia. The thesis brings together research that demonstrates how the material evolution of Canada is deeply tied to farming. It charts how the theatres considered here are similarly connected, and posits a new field of agro-poetics, to which these four companies’ respective aesthetic innovations and animations of sites are contributing.

description: The Planck-ATCA Co-eval Observations (PACO) project collected data between 4.5 and 40 GHz for 482 sources selected within the Australia Telescope 20 GHz (AT20G) catalogue and observed with the Australia Telescope Compact Array (ATCA). Observations were done almost simultaneously with the Planck satellite, in the period between July 2009 and August 2010. In this paper we present and discuss the data for the complete sample of 159 sources with S(AT20G)>200 mJy in the Southern ecliptic pole region. The Planck Early Release Compact Source Catalogue (ERCSC) contains 57 of our sources. A comparison between the PACO catalogue and the ERCSC confirms that the reliability of the latter is better than 95 per cent. The missing ERCSC sources are typically associated with the Large Magellanic Cloud, the Milky Way or are otherwise extended. The spectral analysis of the PACO faint catalogue shows a spectral steepening of the sources at high frequencies, confirming the results obtained from the PACO bright sample. A comparison with AT20G measurements, carried out, on average, a few years earlier, has demonstrated that, on these timescales, our sources show a rather high variability with an rms amplitude of ~40 per cent at 20 GHz. The source spectral properties are found not to vary substantially with flux density, except for an increase of the fraction of steep spectrum sources at fainter flux densities. Our data also allow us to extend by a factor ~5 downwards in flux density the source counts at ~33 GHz and ~40 GHz obtained from Planck's Early Release Compact Source catalogue. This allows us to substantially improve our control on the contribution of unresolved extragalactic sources to the power spectrum of small scale fluctuations in CMB maps.

On social event organization
Creators: name: Li, Keqian
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2016

description: Online platforms, such as Meetup and Plancast, have recently become popular for planning gatherings and event organization. However, there is a surprising lack of studies on how to effectively and efficiently organize social events for a large group of people through those platforms. This thesis provides the first systematic study on key computational problem involved in organization of social events. We understand the Social Event Organization problem as assigning a set of events for a group of users to attend, where the users are socially connected with each other and have innate levels of interest in those events. We then introduce a set of formal definition of a restricted version of the problem and show that it is NP-hard and is hard to approximate. We propose efficient heuristic algorithms that improve upon simple greedy algorithms by incorporating the notion of phantom events and by using look-ahead estimation. Using synthetic datasets and three real datasets including those from the platforms Meetup and Plancast, we experimentally demonstrate that our greedy heuristics are scalable and furthermore outperform the baseline algorithms significantly in terms of achieving superior social welfare.

description: Metadata plays a key role in the scientific publication and dissemination process. It is only through metadata and identifiers that each contribution, from research data to article publication and beyond, becomes findable, accessible, interoperable and reusable. Persistent identifiers (PIDs) and their metadata are the backbone of scholarly communications, since only through them can the promise of sustainable access to research information be realized. This presentation will highlight the importance of open metadata in scholarly communications to recognize a wide range of contributions to science and as a way to build trust in research. We will also discuss the need for collaborative, community efforts to improve metadata creation and dissemination. Examples of organizations and researchers using open metadata will be presented.

description: More information is now being published in machine processable form on the web and, as de-facto distributed knowledge bases are materializing, partly encouraged by the vision of the Semantic Web, the focus is shifting from the publication of this information to its consumption. Platforms for data integration, visualization and analysis that are based on a graph representation of information appear first candidates to be consumers of web-based information that is readily expressible as graphs. The question is whether the adoption of these platforms to information available on the Semantic Web requires some adaptation of their data structures and semantics. Ondex is a network-based data integration, analysis and visualization platform which has been developed in a Life Sciences context. A number of features, including semantic annotation via ontologies and an attention to provenance and evidence, make this an ideal candidate to consume Semantic Web information, as well as a prototype for the application of network analysis tools in this context. By analyzing the Ondex data structure and its usage, we have found a set of discrepancies and errors arising from the semantic mismatch between a procedural approach to network analysis and the implications of a web-based representation of information. We report in the paper on the simple methodology that we have adopted to conduct such analysis, and on issues that we have found which may be relevant for a range of similar platforms

description: If neutrino mass is a function of the Higgs potential then minimum of the total thermodynamic potential $Ω$ (which is the Higgs potential minus the neutrino pressure) can shift from the standard electro-weak vev $v=246.2$ GeV by a small amount which depends on the neutrino pressure. If the neutrino mass is a very steep function of the Higgs field then the equilibrium thermodynamic potential can act like the dark energy with $ω\simeq -1$. Choosing the neutrino mass as logarithmic function of the Higgs field and a heavy mass scale, we find that the correct magnitude of the cosmological density of the present universe $ρ_λ\simeq (0.002 eV)^4$ is obtained by choosing the heavy mass at the GUT scale.

description: The superconductivity recently found in the doped topological insulator Cu_xBi_2Se_3 offers a great opportunity to search for a topological superconductor. We have successfully prepared a single-crystal sample with a large shielding fraction and measured the specific-heat anomaly associated with the superconductivity. The temperature dependence of the specific heat suggests a fully-gapped, strong-coupling superconducting state, but the BCS theory is not in full agreement with the data, which hints at a possible unconventional pairing in Cu_xBi_2Se_3. Also, the evaluated effective mass of 2.6m_e (m_e is the free electron mass) points to a large mass enhancement in this material.

We show that this coupling strength can be tuned from zero to values that are comparable with other superconducting qubits. At g = 0 the qubit is in a decoherence free subspace with respect to spontaneous emission induced by the Purcell effect. Furthermore we show that in the decoherence free subspace the state of the qubit can still be measured by either a dispersive shift on the resonance frequency of the resonator or by a cycling-type measurement.

description: The IBIS imager on board INTEGRAL, with a sensitivity better than a mCrab in deep observations and a point source location accuracy of the order of few arcminutes, has localized so far 723 hard X-ray sources in the 17--100 keV energy band, of which a fraction of about 1/3 are still unclassified. The aim of this research is to provide sub-arcsecond localizations of the unidentified sources, necessary to pinpoint the optical and/or infrared counterpart of those objects whose nature is so far unknown. The cross-correlation between the new IBIS sources published within the fourth INTEGRAL/IBIS Survey catalogue and the CHANDRA/ACIS data archive resulted in a sample of 5 not yet identified objects. We present here the results of CHANDRA X-ray Observatory observations of these five hard X-ray sources discovered by the INTEGRAL satellite. We associated IGR J10447-6027 with IR source 2MASSJ10445192-6025115, IGR J16377-6423 with the cluster CIZA J1638.2-6420, IGR J14193-6048 with the pulsar with nebula PSR J1420-6048 and IGR J12562+2554 with the Quasar SDSSJ125610.42+260103.5. We suggest that the counterpart of IGR J12288+0052 may be an AGN/QSO type~2 at a confidence level of 90%.

Data was obtained from GIS and satellites imagery, and from standard atmospheric data sources. Fuel data was classified in the 13 Anderson categories. For correct fire behavior, the spatial resolution of the models needed to be fine enough to resolve the essential micrometeorological effects. The simulation results are compared to available incident data. The code runs faster than real time on a cluster. The model is available from openwfm.org and it extends WRF-Fire from WRF 3.3 release.

Optimizing cloud gaming service delivery
Creators: name: Cai, Wei
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2016

description: The high-profit digital gaming industry has merged with the increasing interest in transforming everything into cloud services, which leads to a novel concept called cloud gaming. In this thesis, we aim to investigate the optimization of quality of experience (QoE) for cloud gaming system, while considering different challenges, system constraints and service requirements. First, we investigate video compression technologies based on existing cloud gaming system, in which the cloud hosts the game engine and streams rendered gaming videos to players through the Internet. We propose to cooperatively encode cloud gaming videos of different players in the same game session, in order to leverage inter-gamer redundancy. This is based on an observation that game scenes of close-by gamers have non-trivial overlapping areas, and thus adding inter-gamer predictive video frames may improve the coding efficiency. Selected games are analyzed and the trace-driven simulations demonstrate the efficiency of proposed system. Second, we introduce a novel decomposed cloud gaming paradigm, which supports flexible migrations of gaming components between the cloud server and the players' terminals. We present the blueprint of the proposed system and discussed the cognitive resource optimization for the proposed decomposed cloud gaming system under distinct targets. This includes the minimization of cloud, network, and terminal resources and response delay, subject to QoE assurance, which is formulated as a graph partitioning problem that is solved by exhaustive searches. Extensive simulation results show the feasibility of cognitive resource management in a cloud gaming system to efficiently adapt itself to variations in the service environments, while satisfying different QoE requirements for gaming sessions. Finally, we explore the practical approach for the decomposed cloud gaming paradigm. We design the system framework and seek the engineering solutions for practical issues. Following these discussions, we implement the very first experimental testbed called ubiquitous cloud gaming platform. Three game prototypes are built on our testbed, which can demonstrate the feasibility and efficiency of our proposal. Experiments have been conducted to show that intelligent partitioning leads to better system performance, such as lower response latency and higher frame rate.

Ωστόσο, είναι απαραίτητο να χρησιμοποιηθεί Προσαρμοστικός Προβλεπτικός Έλεγχος (Adaptive MPC) προκειμένου να αντισταθμιστούν οι διαταραχές από το θαλάσσιο περιβάλλον, όπως και τυχόν εσωτερικές διαταραχές του συστήματος.

description: Η συνεχώς αυξανόμενες ανάγκες της καθημερινότητας για την υιοθέτηση νέων συνηθειών πιο φιλικών προς το περιβάλλον, δημιουργεί τις κατευθυντήριες γραμμές για τη μετάβαση σε μια πιο βιώσιμη και πράσινη καθημερινότητα. Κατά συνέπεια, είναι απαραίτητο να επέλθουν αλλαγές στις συνήθειες των πολιτών, σε όλες τις πτυχές της καθημερινότητας αλλά και αλλαγές στις επιχειρήσεις προκειμένου να συμβαδίσουν με την τάση της εποχής. Η πλειοψηφία αυτών επιλέγει να δημοσιεύει τις νέες συνήθειες που ενσωματώνει στην λειτουργία τους, επιτρέποντας στους πολίτες να είναι πλήρως ενημερωμένοι κατά την επιλογή εταιρειών από τις οποίες προμηθεύονται υλικά και υπηρεσίες. Η δημοσιοποίηση αυτή γίνεται συνήθως μέσω των Εκθέσεων Βιωσιμότητας που δημοσιεύονται στο τέλος κάθε έτους, ενώ έχει αρχίσει να εδραιώνεται και η δημοσιοποίηση μέσω ενημερωτικών άρθρων. Τους τελευταίους μήνες διαφαίνεται μια αυξημένη τάση των μεγάλων κυρίως επιχειρήσεων να προβαίνουν στη δημοσίευση των νέων επιχειρηματικών τους μοντέλων, προσαρμοσμένων στις ανάγκες της εποχής για την αντιμετώπιση της κλιματικής αλλαγής. Παράλληλα, αυξάνονται και τα άρθρα από επιστήμονες ή δημοσιογράφους που ασχολούνται με το αντικείμενο, και στοχεύουν στην ενημέρωση και ευαισθητοποίηση των αναγνωστών για τις συνεχείς εξελίξεις πάνω σε θέματα κλιματικής αλλαγής, βιωσιμότητας και προστασίας του περιβάλλοντος. Μέσω της παρούσας εργασίας και της χρήσης ερωτηματολογίου επιχειρείται να παρουσιαστεί η τάση των πολιτών για υιοθέτηση νέων συνηθειών και να συμβαδίζουν με την τάση της εποχής αλλά και το πως αυτοί με τη σειρά τους ενημερώνονται μέσω άρθρων καθώς και το πόσο επηρεάζονται από αυτά. Τα αποτελέσματα έδειξαν μια αυξημένη τάση για υιοθέτηση συνηθειών φιλικών προς το περιβάλλον, ενώ οι μισοί σχεδόν από τους ερωτηθέντες έχουν ήδη εντάξει στις συνήθειες τους, την ανάγνωση άρθρων που πραγματεύονται θέματα βιωσιμότητας.

description: We present high-precision photometry of three transits of the extrasolar planetary system WASP-2, obtained by defocussing the telescope, and achieving point-to-point scatters of between 0.42 and 0.73 mmag. These data are modelled using the JKTEBOP code, and taking into account the light from the recently-discovered faint star close to the system. The physical properties of the WASP-2 system are derived using tabulated predictions from five different sets of stellar evolutionary models, allowing both statistical and systematic errorbars to be specified. We find the mass and radius of the planet to be M_b = 0.847 +/- 0.038 +/- 0.024 Mjup and R_b = 1.044 +/- 0.029 +/- 0.015 Rjup. It has a low equilibrium temperature of 1280 +/- 21 K, in agreement with a recent finding that it does not have an atmospheric temperature inversion. The first of our transit datasets has a scatter of only 0.42 mmag with respect to the best-fitting light curve model, which to our knowledge is a record for ground-based observations of a transiting extrasolar planet.

FRW Universe Models in Conformally Flat Spacetime Coordinates. III: Universe models with positive spatial curvature

Year: 2011
Subjects: subject: General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology (gr-qc)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We deduce general expressions for the line element of universe models with positive spatial curvature described by conformally flat spacetime coordinates. Models with dust, radiation and vacuum energy are exhibited. Discussing the existence of particle horizons we show that there is continual annihilation of space, matter and energy in a dust and radiation dominated universe, and continual creation in a LIVE domined universe when conformal time is used in Friedmann-Robertson-Walker models with positive spatial curvature. A general procedure is given for finding coordinates to be used in Penrose diagrams. We also calculate the age and the redshift of some universe models using conformal time.

description: We present a systematic and comparative study of the structural and electronic properties of Cu-based ternary and quaternary semiconductors using first-principles electronic structure approaches. The important role that Cu d electrons play in determining their properties is illustrated by comparing results calculated with different exchange correlation energy functionals. We show that systematic improvement of the calculated anion displacement can be achieved by using the Heyd-Scuseria-Ernzerhof (HSE06) functional compared with the Perdew-Burke-Ernzerhof (PBE) functional. Quasiparticle band structures are then calculated within the G0W0 approximation using the crystal structures optimized within the HSE06 functional and starting from the PBE+U mean-field solution. Both the calculated quasiparticle band gaps and their systematic variation with chemical constituents agree very well with experiments. We also predict that the quasiparticle band gaps of the prototypical semiconductor Cu2ZnSnS4 in the kesterite (KS) phase is 1.65 eV and that of the stannite (ST) phase is 1.40 eV. These results are also consistent with available experimental values which vary from 1.45 to 1.6 eV.

description: Employing the non-linear $σ$-model we analyze current fluctuations in coherent composite conductors which contain a diffusive element in-between two tunnel barriers. For such systems we explicitly evaluate the frequency-dependent third current cumulant which also determines the leading Coulomb interaction correction to shot noise. Our predictions can be directly tested in future experiments.
