European fund for monetary cooperation: objectives and operating guidelines
Creators: name: MASERA, F.
Publisher: name: PSL Quarterly Review
Year: 2013
Subjects: subject: European Fund for Monetary Cooperation, monetary policy, exchange rates
subject: F36, E52, F31

description: The objectives of the European Fund for Monetary Cooperation include concrete aims to be realised immediately within the framework of the existing structure on the one hand, and longer-term ideals to be achieved through a scheme involving institutional innovators on the other. In the former case the main problems to be solved concern cooperation in the field of exchange rates, whereas in the latter they tend rather to concern monetary policy cooperation. The present paper discusses a number of propositions aimed at solving exchange rate problems within the context of the present institutional structure, without, however, overlooking the possibility of proceeding to broader and closer forms of monetary cooperation.

description: Faced with the two extremes of fixed and rigid parities on the one hand, and a system of floating rates on the other, many economists have proposed a system based on official sliding parities. According to this line of reasoning, floating exchanges is unachievable politically and therefore this solution would be the maximum concession towards floating that one may hope to negotiate. In this paper, the authors develop a different argument in favour of sliding pegs as compared to either extremes and conclude that such a system combines the advantages of short-run fixity in mitigating propagation of cyclical disturbances with long-run or structural changes in surplus or deficit.

description: In R-parity-violating supersymmetry the lightest neutralino can be very light, even massless. For masses in the range $500$ MeV$\lesssim m_{\tildeχ^0_1}\lesssim 4.5$ GeV the neutralino can be produced in hadron collisions from rare meson decays via an R-parity violating coupling, and subsequently decay to a lighter meson and a charged lepton. Due to the small neutralino mass and for small R-parity violating coupling the lightest neutralino is long-lived, leading to displaced vertices at fixed-target and collider experiments. In this work, we study such signatures at the proposed experiments ANUBIS and MAPP at the LHC. We also compare their sensitivity reach in these scenarios with that of other present and proposed experiments at the LHC such as ATLAS, CODEX-b, and MATHUSLA. We find that ANUBIS and MAPP can show complementary or superior sensitivity.

description: We consider collision of two particles 1 and 2 near the horizon of the extremal rotating axially symmetric neutral generic black hole producing particles 3 and 4. We discuss the scenario in which both particles 3 and 4 fall into a black hole and move in a white hole region. If particle 1 is fine-tuned, the energy $E_{c.m.}$ in the centre of mass grows unbounded (the Bañados-Silk-West effect). Then, particle 3 \ can, in principle, reach a flat infinity in another universe. If not only $E_{c.m.}$ but also the corresponding Killing energy $E$ is unbounded, this gives a so-called super-Penrose process (SPP). We show that the SPP\ is indeed possible. Thus white holes turn out to be potential sources of high energy fluxes that transfers from one universe to another. This generalizes recent observaitons made by Patil and Harada for the Kerr metric. We analyze two different regimes of the process on different scales.

title: Strategies to improve BCG-mediated protection from Mycobacterium tuberculosis
Creators: name: Goonetilleke, Nilu
Publisher: name: The Open University
Year: 2004

description: Background: Host resistance to pulmonary tuberculosis is associated with the induction of IFN-y secreting T cells in the lung. Recombinant viruses used in heterologous prime-boost immunisation regimens can evoke powerful T cell immune responses and are promising candidates for novel tuberculosis vaccines. In this thesis, the immunogenicity and protection protective efficacy of viral vectors expressing the immunodominant antigen, 85A were investigated in murine and macaque models of tuberculosis disease.
Results: Recombinant modified vaccinia virus Ankara, expressing the Mycobacterium tuberculosis antigen 85A (MVA85A), strongly boosted BCG-induced antigen 85A specific- CD4+ and CD8+ T cell responses in BALB/c and C57BL/6 mice. A comparison of intranasal and parenteral immunisation of BCG showed that whilst both routes elicited comparable T cell responses in the spleen, only intranasal delivery elicited specific T cell responses in the lung lymph nodes and these responses were further boosted by intranasal delivery of MVA85A. Following aerosol challenge of BALB/c with Mycobacterium tuberculosis, intranasal boosting of BCG with either BCG or MVA85A afforded unprecedented levels of protection in both the lungs (2.5 log) and spleens (1.5 log) compared to naive controls. Protection in the lung correlated with the induction of antigen 85A specific IFN-y secreting T cells in the lung lymph nodes.
 In rhesus macaques, aerosol delivery of BCG induced comparable kinetics and frequencies of T cells in the peripheral blood compared to intradermal BCG without producing abnormal pathology. MVA85A vaccination induced low level Ag85A-specific CD4+ and CD8+ T cell responses in the blood. Further vaccination with another attenuated poxvirus, Fowlpox expressing antigen 85A significantly increased 85A-specific T cell response in 5 of 6 outbred macaques. Analysis of lymphocytes in broncheo-alveolar lavage showed that vaccination with either BCG or M.85A/F.85A induced high frequencies of 85A-specific T cells in the respiratory compartment.
Conclusions: These findings support further evaluation of mucosally targeted prime-boost vaccination approaches for tuberculosis.

description: In this letter, we study the optimum selection of ground stations (GSs) in RF/optical satellite networks (SatNets) in order to minimize the overall installation cost under an outage probability requirement, assuming independent weather conditions between sites. First, we show that the optimization problem can be formulated as a binary-linear-programming problem, and then we give a formal proof of its NP-hardness. Furthermore, we design a dynamic-programming algorithm of pseudo-polynomial complexity with global optimization guarantee as well as an efficient (polynomial-time) approximation algorithm with provable performance guarantee on the distance of the achieved objective value from the global optimum. Finally, the performance of the proposed algorithms is verified through numerical simulations.

description: Die vorliegende Literaturarbeit geht der Fragestellung nach, inwieweit Verfahren der Selbstinstruktion unterstützend zur Förderung der Selbstregulation bei Jugendlichen mit Verhaltensstörungen eingesetzt werden können. Dabei werden vier kognitiv-behaviorale Präventions- und Interventionsprogramme für Jugendliche nach den Hauptaspekten Selbstinstruktion und Selbstregulation analysiert.
 Verhaltensstörungen sind komplex und verlangen nach multimodaler pädagogisch-therapeutischer Unterstützung, dabei ist die Selbstinstruktion eines von verschiedenen Verfahren in der Vermittlung von Lern- und Handlungsstrategien. Für die sonderpädagogische Förderung in der Schule ist die Art und Weise der Umsetzung ein zentraler Wirkfaktor. Zugleich ist die freiwillige Partizipation eine grosse Herausforderung, da sie in der Verhaltensmodifikation bzw. der Selbstinstruktion von zentraler Bedeutung ist.
title: Anticipatory processing in social anxiety
Creators: name: Hinrichsen, Hendrik
Publisher: name: The Open University
Year: 1999

description: Socially anxious individuals often report considerable anticipatory anxiety. A recent cognitive model of social phobia (Clark & Wells, 1995) has suggested that while anticipating a social situation, socially anxious people engage in four biased cognitive processes. First, they recall and dwell on past perceived failures. Second, they construct negative observer-perspective images of how they think they may appear toothers. Third, they focus their attention on their bodily sensations and negative thoughts. Finally, they use their observed bodily sensations, negative thoughts and self-constructed images to predict how poorly they will perform in the anticipated social situation. These hypothesised processes were investigated in two studies.In the first study (Experiment 1), 20 high and 20 low socially anxious individuals were given a semi-structured interview which focussed on their mental processes during periods of anticipatory anxiety. The results of the interview were broadly consistent with the four hypotheses and provided additional data about the nature of functional and dysfunctional anticipatory processing.

In a second study (Experiment 2), the effects of dysfunctional anticipatory processing on levels of social anxiety and confidence were investigated. Twenty high and 20 low socially anxious individuals engaged in either the dysfunctional anticipatory processes identified in study one or a distraction task prior to giving a video-taped speech. The results showed that individuals who engaged in dysfunctional anticipatory processing prior to giving the speech, felt more anxious but not less confident before and during the speech than individuals who had engaged in the distraction task.

The results of the two studies are discussed in relation to the cognitive model of social phobia (Clark & Wells, 1995) and limitations of the experimental designs are highlighted. It is argued that research from worry may provide an explanation for the maintenance of dysfunctional anticipatory processing in socially anxious individuals,and _a theoretical approach to the maintenance of dysfunctional anticipatory processing in social anxiety is outlined which integrates the findings from the present study with other research findings. Finally, the implications of the present findings for the treatment of anticipatory social anxiety are discussed, and recommendations for future research are made.

Understanding low-income mothers' efforts to safeguard young children in the home : an exploratory study
Creators: name: Olsen, Lise Lindquist
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: Unintentional injuries in the home environment pose a significant threat to the health of young children. Children living in lower-income environments are also known to be at greater risk for injuries. Little is known, however, about how mothers' protect their children from injuries and how the contexts in which they live shape these efforts. In this study, qualitative methods were employed to explore mothers' efforts to keep their children safe in the home. Data collection took place in the homes of participants using interviews and observations. Seventeen mothers and their children (1-5 years old) who lived in a medium-sized community participated in the study. Three different approaches were used to analyze the data including ethnography, discourse analysis and gender based analysis. The study findings revealed that mothers' efforts to safeguard children were extensive, time consuming and involved actions directed at children as well as at the social and physical environments. Mothers often took their child safety efforts for granted and a variety of contextual factors were found to shape these efforts. Furthermore, women's accounts of their children's injuries also revealed how they aligned themselves with dominant cultural expectations about mothering and child safety but also how they challenged these expectations. On the whole, mothers expressed a strong commitment to keeping their children safe and described ways that their safety efforts were both supported and constrained. These constraints included a lack of financial resources, limited options for assistance with childcare, a restriction of social ties, presence of outdoor hazards, and challenges related to modifying the physical household environment. The analysis also showed how women's safety activities were closely linked to their gendered practices as mothers. These study findings suggest that future research needs to address how children's injuries can be prevented through better supports for mothers' home safety efforts and increased understandings of mothers' perspectives about child safety. When planning injury prevention interventions, practitioners need to consider how the meanings that mothers hold about child safety, and the constraints and realities they face living in challenging social conditions may affect their uptake and use of safety messages.
Mother Tongue : a study of participant affect in an interactive installation

description: What happens when we can see the sounds of our speech? Is it possible to experience a shift in feeling when speaking the prosodies of other languages? People have an innate visual sense of their language sounds. Mother Tongue mines our visual sense of language to explore our potential to inhabit different cultural and subjective sensibilities through vocalization of different language sounds as prompted by an interactive spectrograph. Participants voiced sounds from 4 language samples, Frisian, Mandarin, Canadian and British English. Using qualitative analysis to understand the experience of interacting with the spectrograph this paper charts a course for understanding participant affect in an interactive installation.
title: Climatic and tectonic controls on deep water sedimentary cyclicity : evidence from the Miocene to Pleistocene of Cyprus
Creators: name: Davies, Quintin James
Publisher: name: The Open University
Year: 2001

description: Traditionally, sedimentation at active plate margins is thought to be dominantly controlled by tectonism, with any climatic cyclicity being overprinted. Since the early Miocene, Cyprus has been situated above an active subduction zone, which has strongly influenced the regional tectonics. Global climate change also occurred during the Miocene marking a transition from relative global warmth of the early-Miocene to the Neogene 'icehouse world'. Cyprus has extensive outcrops of Miocene to Pleistocene deep water sediments and provides an ideal setting to test the magnitude of climatic signals in tectonically active areas, and thus deduce the relative roles of climate and tectonics on sedimentation.

Detailed sedimentary logging and biostratigraphical dating of the Miocene-age pelagic Pakhna Formation reveals that the formation can be divided into depositional sequences,bounded by hard grounds or erosion surfaces, and contains a distinct pattern of marl-chalk couplets. These sequences correlate, within the constraints of biostratigraphy to European and New Jersey Margin sequence chronostratigraphy. Three smaller scales of cyclicity are identified by stratigraphic time series analysis, and are likely to correspond to the 100 kyr, 41ky and ~20 ky Milankovitch cycles. Stable oxygen and carbon isotope analysis on pelagicforaminifera indicate the following climatic influences; (1) chalk-marl couplets probably record climatically controlled supply of terrigenous material; (2) a strong link between 818O maxima and sequence boundaries; and (3) the globally recognised 813C Monterey ExcursionIS present. The increasing abundance of tectonically derived Troodos material partially masks the climatically controlled sedimentation in the Pakhna Formation south of the Troodos massif.

Rapid Troodos uplift during the Pliocene-Pleistocene is demonstrated by the high abundance of ophiolite derived clasts in the Khirokitia-Psematismenos submarine fan-complex. Here,graphic logging, and biostratigraphy suggests that the six cycles observed are likely to correlate to cycles identified in European sequence chronostratigraphy, though higher frequency,climatic cyclicity is obscured by the overprint of tectonic activity.

description: Open Access (OA) book publishing, and the way it is funded, is changing. 2020 and 2021 saw the emergence of several new OA monograph initiatives based on collective library funding. Cambridge UP started Flip It Open, MIT Press launched Direct 2 Open and Liverpool UP and the Central European University Press launched Opening the Future. This session will give attendees a better understanding of the associated challenges facing libraries, publishers and scholars and will position these in the context of recent policy developments (UKRI OA monograph policy, the next REF, Plan S) and the rapidly developing OA landscape. Run by the non-profit, international COPIM Project, presentations and informal breakouts will give participants an understanding of a number of emerging OA book funding models and infrastructures that support smaller presses, based not on Book Processing Charges (BPCs) but on collective library funding. We’ll talk about how libraries might evaluate which OA book programmes align best with their institution and deliver the most relevant benefits. And we’ll discuss the importance of collaborative approaches for publishers and libraries, with a particular focus on the COPIM Project’s different types of collaboration, including Open Book Collective and Opening the Future: two OA monograph partnerships between libraries, publishers, and infrastructure providers. Attendees will explore how to make more informed decisions about the long-term management of their investment in consortial library funding programs.

title: Tertiary and carboniferous magmatism around Lundy Island and the outer Bristol Channel - a geophysical and geochemical perspective
Creators: name: Roberts, Clive Lynton
Publisher: name: The Open University
Year: 1997

description: The British Tertiary Volcanic Province comprises central volcanic complexes with positive gravity and magnetic anomalies, some centres associated with both large volumes of continental flood basalts and regional dyke swarms. The Lundy Island is the southern most expression of Tertiary volcanism and consists of granite intruded by around 200 dykes and associated with positive gravity and magnetic anomalies. The Lundy Dyke Swarm comprises basalt/dolerite and trachyte to rhyolite intrusions within host Tertiary granite (58.7 ± 1.6 Ma) and Devonian sediments. Outcrops of dykes are confined to coastal exposures on Lundy as they are veneered by peat over most of the island. Dykes present paired magnetic anomaly profiles, which allows their trends tobe determined by proton magnetometry. The dykes have a radial disposition superimposed on a ENE-WSW regional trend. Anisotropy of magnetic susceptibility studies indicate that magma for the radial component was emplaced at shallow to moderate inclinations, suggesting a relatively shallow origin near to the western border of Lundy Island. The regional component was emplaced at shallow to sub-horizontalangles, suggesting lateral movement of magma from a possible source 12 km to the northwest.

Geochemical signatures indicate that the Lundy Dyke Swarm was transitional between plume-related magmatism and partial melting of the lithospheric mantle, the magma being stored in several small storage bodies at differing depths in the upper continental crust, rather than in one large magma chamber. Basic dykes at Lee Bay (60 ± 0.6 to 63.1 ± 0.7 Ma) pre-date the Lundy Dyke Swarm and were derived from a discrete magma chamber, possibly near to Morte Point. Conversely, other dykes in North Devon (Fremington dyke - 292.4 ± 1.7 Ma; Horse-Shoe Rocks - 339.6 ± 7.4 Ma) are not directly related to Tertiary magmatism, even though the Horse-Shoe Rocks have a Tertiary palaeomagnetic overprint.

The Lundy Igneous Complex (comprising granite, dykes and sub-surface basic rocks) is situated close to the intersection of the Variscan Front and the Welsh Caledonides massif where the continental thickness is between 25 and 27 km. Emplacement of magma was assisted by the heavily fractured nature of the host sediments. However, a large positive gravity anomaly to the northwest of Lundy Island does not have a corresponding magnetic anomaly and so is interpreted as the response to relatively dense uplifted basement in the Lundy Horst rather than a large volume of basic rocks.Thus, the Lundy Igneous Complex probably did not produce sub-aerial volcanic activity, as pressure in the magma chamber would not have exceeded the overlying litho static load, despite the fractured nature of the host rocks.

description: Reducing theoretical uncertainties in Galactic dark matter (DM) searches is an important challenge as several experiments are now delving into the parameter space relevant to popular (particle or not) candidates. Since many DM signal predictions rely on the knowledge of the DM velocity distribution---direct searches, capture by stars, p-wave-suppressed or Sommerfeld-enhanced annihilation rate, microlensing of primordial black holes, etc.---it is necessary to assess the accuracy of our current theoretical handle. Beyond Maxwellian approximations or ad-hoc extrapolations of fits on cosmological simulations, approaches have been proposed to self-consistently derive the DM phase-space distribution only from the detailed mass content of the Galaxy and some symmetry assumptions (e.g. the Eddington inversion and its anisotropic extensions). Although theoretically sound, these methods are still based on simplifying assumptions and their relevance to real galaxies can be questioned. In this paper, we use zoomed-in cosmological simulations to quantify the associated uncertainties. Assuming isotropy, we predict the speed distribution and its moments from the DM and baryonic content measured in simulations, and compare them with the true ones. Taking as input galactic mass models fitted on full simulation data, we reach a predictivity down to ~ 10% for some velocity-related observables, significantly better than some Maxwellian models. This moderate theoretical error is particularly encouraging at a time when stellar surveys like the Gaia mission should allow us to improve constraints on Galactic mass models.

title: The appropriation and mastery of cultural tools in computer supported collaborative literacy practices
Creators: name: Fernández Cárdenas, Juan Manuel
Publisher: name: The Open University
Year: 2004

description: The main focus of this thesis is how language is used to construct knowledge in social interaction. A more specific aim is the investigation of the strategies of British primary school children for constructing multimodal electronic documents, and in particular for constructing collaboratively WebPages in History.

In the first part of the thesis the two themes are critically explored through a literature review of sociocultural theory, literacy, and lCT, and through two pilot studies. In the first study, I investigate how language use varies according to the difficulty of tasks. In the second study, I investigate how language use in situated literacy events relates to wider cultural practices for constructing e-mails and WebPages. Drawing on the result of these studies, I evaluate the relationship between the concepts of Zone of Proximal Development, scaffolding, exploratory talk, and Intermental Development Zone (IDZ), arguing in favour of the usefulness of IDZ for studies in social interaction.

 In the second part of the thesis, I explore different approaches to discourse analysis developing an analytic strategy for the main study. I identify the ethnography of communication as a starting point, choosing the 'communicative event' as the unit of analysis to investigate, using NVivo: how participants construct categories of meaning while constructing WebPages in History, and the categories of participants in relation to the activity frames of design, History, and group work. I conclude that, in contrast to a view of "effective use of language" linked to explicitness, participants demonstrated to be communicatively competent in managing deictic terms and intertextual references.> recognizing cultural patterns, and adjusting their efforts according to a division of labour, and the collaborative nature of meaning making. Finally, the notion of 'situated activity system' is enriched by illuminating how categories of participants, activity frames, and cultural tools are interrelated in such system.

description: The deployment of Deep Neural Networks (DNNs) on end-nodes at the extreme edge of the Internet-of-Things is a critical enabler to support pervasive Deep Learning-enhanced applications. Low-Cost MCU-based end-nodes have limited on-chip memory and often replace caches with scratchpads, to reduce area overheads and increase energy efficiency -- requiring explicit DMA-based memory transfers between different levels of the memory hierarchy. Mapping modern DNNs on these systems requires aggressive topology-dependent tiling and double-buffering. In this work, we propose DORY (Deployment Oriented to memoRY) - an automatic tool to deploy DNNs on low cost MCUs with typically less than 1MB of on-chip SRAM memory. DORY abstracts tiling as a Constraint Programming (CP) problem: it maximizes L1 memory utilization under the topological constraints imposed by each DNN layer. Then, it generates ANSI C code to orchestrate off- and on-chip transfers and computation phases. Furthermore, to maximize speed, DORY augments the CP formulation with heuristics promoting performance-effective tile sizes. As a case study for DORY, we target GreenWaves Technologies GAP8, one of the most advanced parallel ultra-low power MCU-class devices on the market. On this device, DORY achieves up to 2.5x better MAC/cycle than the GreenWaves proprietary software solution and 18.1x better than the state-of-the-art result on an STM32-F746 MCU on single layers. Using our tool, GAP-8 can perform end-to-end inference of a 1.0-MobileNet-128 network consuming just 63 pJ/MAC on average @ 4.3 fps - 15.4x better than an STM32-F746. We release all our developments - the DORY framework, the optimized backend kernels, and the related heuristics - as open-source software.

subject: E42, F33

description: The effort to create a new set of principals for international monetary relations continues, with a deep sense of urgency, but with uncertainty as to what set of principals will best serve the future. International monetary systems should be designed to endure. This requires flexibility and adaptability; it also requires a clear view as to what are the major current and emerging forces in the world economy. The present work examines the history of the international monetary system in order to draw insights as to its future direction. JEL: E42, F33

 Geostiba (Lioglutosipalia) bulbifera ZERCHE, 1988: 155 ff.; nov.syn.
 C o m m e n t: According to NEWTON (in prep.), Geostiba euboica PACE, 1990 is a junior synonym of the overlooked name G. maxiana, a replacement name for the homonym Atheta winkleri BERNHAUER, 1936, previously a synonym of G. euboica.
 Geostiba bulbifera was originally described from the Vitosha range (Bulgaria) and subsequently recorded from several other Bulgarian localities (ASSING 2005a; ZERCHE 1988, 2002). A comparison of the types and additional material of this taxon with the material of G. maxiana (then referred to as G. euboica) known at that time revealed only slight differences (ASSING 2000, 2005a). With the numerous specimens available from Chios, Lesbos, and numerous other localities today, the differences observed earlier can no longer be considered constant, but fall within the range of intraspecific variation of G. maxiana. Hence, G. bulbifera is placed in synonymy with G. maxiana.
 The distribution of Geostiba maxiana includes large parts of Greece (including many islands such as Zákinthos, Levkás, Kefallinía, Evvoia, Lesbos, Kárpathos), Albania, Macedonia, Bulgaria, and western Turkey (ASSING 2005b, 2006b, 2009b, 2010c). The vast distribution prompted me to hypothesize that this species was wing-dimorphic, although all the previously examined specimens are micropterous (ASSING 2009b). Wing-dimorphism had been recorded for three Geostiba species, G. circellaris (GRAVENHORST, 1806), G. oertzeni (EPPELSHEIM, 1888), and G. lucens (BENICK, 1970), all of them widespread (ASSING 2005b, 2009b).
 As many as 175 specimens (10333, 72♀♀) of G. maxiana were collected in Chios, with one exception all of them on Oros Pelinneon, primarily by sifting pine and oak litter, as well as grass roots near a nest of Messor sp. (Tab. 1). Remarkably, one male from locality sample 18 is macropterous, thus confirming that G. maxiana is indeed wing-dimorphic.

"Who were these mysterious people?" : the Marpole Midden, Coast Salish identity, and the dispossession of Aboriginal lands in British Columbia
Creators: name: Roy, Susan
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: The Marpole Midden, located near the Musqueam Indian Reserve on the Fraser River's north arm, has been the subject of anthropological research, institutional excavation, national commemoration, and controversy. From the late 1880s to the 1960s, major international museums, local historical societies, and university archaeologists mined the site for human skeletal remains and cultural objects for their collections and research into the origins of the early inhabitants of the area. However, this place is known to the Musqueam First Nation as an ancient village and burial ground called cesna:m. The historical construction of the midden as an archaeological site and not an Aboriginal village distanced, in the minds of non-Natives, the Musqueam from association with the place. Importantly, this distancing contributed to the non-recognition of Aboriginal rights of ownership to ancestral places, and unoccupied or seasonally occupied villages that were not recognized by the reserve creation process. Thus, this study explores how western ideology and narrative worked to redefine Aboriginal land as sites of archaeology and science, and interrogates several enduring western dichotomies: prehistoric/living, unoccupied/occupied, archaeological/ ethnographic, and cultural/ historical. This research traces shifting indigenous, archaeological, and popular theories about the identities of the people who lived at such "prehistoric" sites, paying attention to how identity is conceptualized and how power is drawn from this process. In other words, it does not determine who these people were, but asks, who claims the authority to assign meaning to the skeletal remains and cultural objects taken from these places and what are the historical and political circumstances in which such assertions are made? This study explores the relationship between the local colonial culture, which served to disassociate Aboriginal people from ancestral sites, and an anti-colonial or reclamation culture, which reasserted these connections, especially as Aboriginal interpretations of the past gained increasing legitimacy in the second half of the twentieth century. It traces the linkages, both conceptual and material, between anthropology, popular representations of indigenous peoples and their connections to place, the political regime in British Columbia, and First Nations' ongoing struggles to gain recognition of Aboriginal title.

description: Machine learning has been used in high energy physics for a long time, primarily at the analysis level with supervised classification. Quantum computing was postulated in the early 1980s as way to perform computations that would not be tractable with a classical computer. With the advent of noisy intermediate-scale quantum computing devices, more quantum algorithms are being developed with the aim at exploiting the capacity of the hardware for machine learning applications. An interesting question is whether there are ways to apply quantum machine learning to High Energy Physics. This paper reviews the first generation of ideas that use quantum machine learning on problems in high energy physics and provide an outlook on future applications.

The European and international currency problem

description: Many argue that the crisis of the international monetary order founded at Bretton Woods is acting as a catalyst in the process of European monetary unification. Others, however, argue that the mounting disorder into which the Bretton Woods order has drifted is hampering that process and that, sooner or later, it will wreck the whole E.C. construction. The present article assess the international currency problem with regards to European integration, showing that it is probable that each of the arguments put forth have valid points. The author argues that the frictions produced by the process of reform have put a strain on international economic and monetary cooperation just when it needed to be strengthened in order to meet new challenges. Moreover, the repeated efforts to restore the monocentric reserve-currency system and the all round obligation to maintain fixed exchange rages are misdirected endeavours. JEL: E42, F36, F33

title: Towards Nootropia : a non-linear approach to adaptive document filtering
Creators: name: Nanas, Nikolaos
Publisher: name: The Open University
Year: 2004

description: In recent years, it has become increasingly difficult for users to find relevant information within the accessible glut. Research in Information Filtering (IF) tackles this problem through a tailored representation of the user interests, a user profile. Traditionally, IF inherits techniques from the related and more well established domains of Information Retrieval and Text Categorisation. These include, linear profile representations that exclude term dependencies and may only effectively represent a single topic of interest, and linear learning algorithms that achieve a steady profile adaptation pace. We argue that these practices are not attuned to the dynamic nature of user interests. A user may be interested in more than one topic in parallel, and both frequent variations and occasional radical changes of interests are inevitable over time. With our experimental system "Nootropia", we achieve adaptive document filtering with a single, multi-topic user profile. A hierarchical term network that takes into account topical and lexical correlations between terms and identifies topic-subtopic relations between them, is used to represent a user's multiple topics of interest and distinguish between them. A series of non-linear document evaluation functions is then established on the hierarchical network. Experiments using a variation of TREC's routing subtask to test the ability of a single profile to represent two and three topics of interest, reveal the approach's superiority over a linear profile representation. Adaptation of this single, multi-topic profile to a variety of changes in the user interests, is achieved through a process of self-organisation that constantly readjusts the profile stucturally, in response to user feedback. We used virtual users and another variation of TREC's routing subtask to test the profile on two learning and two forgetting tasks. The results clearly indicate the profile's ability to adapt to both frequent variations and radical changes in user interests.
