description: Privacy policies in sectors as diverse as Web services, finance and healthcare often place restrictions on the purposes for which a governed entity may use personal information. Thus, automated methods for enforcing privacy policies require a semantics of purpose restrictions to determine whether a governed agent used information for a purpose. We provide such a semantics using a formalism based on planning. We model planning using Partially Observable Markov Decision Processes (POMDPs), which supports an explicit model of information. We argue that information use is for a purpose if and only if the information is used while planning to optimize the satisfaction of that purpose under the POMDP model. We determine information use by simulating ignorance of the information prohibited by the purpose restriction, which we relate to noninterference. We use this semantics to develop a sound audit algorithm to automate the enforcement of purpose restrictions.
Re-examination of log-periodicity observed in the seismic precursors of the 1989 Loma Prieta earthquake

description: Based on several empirical evidence, a series of papers has advocated the concept that seismicity prior to a large earthquake can be understood in terms of the statistical physics of a critical phase transition. In this model, the cumulative Benioff strain (BS) increases as a power-law time-to-failure before the final event. This power law reflects a kind of scale invariance with respect to the distance to the critical point. A few years ago, on the basis of a fit of the cumulative BS released prior to the 1989 Loma Prieta earthquake, Sornette and Sammis [1995] proposed that this scale invariance could be partially broken into a discrete scale invariance (DSI). The observable consequence of DSI takes the form of log-periodic oscillations decorating the accelerating power law. They found that the quality of the fit and the predicted time of the event are significantly improved by the introduction of log-periodicity. Here, we present a battery of synthetic tests performed to quantify the statistical significance of this claim. We find that log-periodic oscillations with frequency and regularity similar to those of the Loma Prieta case are very likely to be generated by the interplay of the low pass filtering step due to the construction of cumulative functions together with the approximate power law acceleration. Thus, the single Loma Prieta case alone cannot support the initial claim and additional cases and further study are needed to increase the signal-to-noise ratio if any. The present study will be a useful methodological benchmark for future testing of additional events when the methodology and data to construct reliable Benioff strain function become available.

description: As part of an overall educational program, bovine veterinarians' knowledge of dairy beef quality assurance was assessed, with particular emphasis on residue avoidance practices. A survey instrument was developed and sent to all members of the American Association of Bovine Practitioners (AABP) in the member newsletter. Topics included respondent demographics, drug administration practices, record-keeping practices, impression of clients' attitudes and behaviors regarding drug residues, drug information sources, understanding of cull cattle marketing and processing, and interest in Dairy Beef Quality Assurance. Survey respondent demographics were similar to the general AABP membership. Survey results highlighted a need for continued educational efforts for and by veterinarians regarding extra-label drug use, residue avoidance and general knowledge about market dairy beef processing.

description: We present radio, optical, near-infrared and spectroscopic observations of the source B0827+525. We consider this source as the best candidate from the Cosmic Lens All-Sky Survey (CLASS) for a `dark lens' system or binary radio-loud quasar. The system consists of two radio components with somewhat different spectral indices, separated by 2.815 arcsec. VLBA observations show that each component has substructure on a scale of a few mas. A deep K-band exposure with the W.M.Keck-II Telescope reveals emission near both radio components. The K-band emission of the weaker radio component appears extended, whereas the emission from the brighter radio component is consistent with a point source. Hubble Space Telescope F160W-band observations with the NICMOS instrument confirms this. A redshift of 2.064 is found for the brighter component, using the LRIS instrument on the W.M.Keck-II Telescope. The probability that B0827+525 consists of two unrelated compact flat-spectrum radio sources is ~3%, although the presence of similar substructure in both component might reduce this. We discuss two scenarios to explain this system: (i) CLASS B0827+525 is a `dark lens' system or (ii) B0827+525 is a binary radio-loud quasar. B0827+525 has met all criteria that thus far have in 100% of the cases confirmed a source as an indisputable gravitational lens system. Despite this, no lens galaxy has been detected with m_F160W<=23 mag. Hence, we might have found the first binary radio-loud quasar. At this moment, however, we feel that the `dark lens' hypothesis cannot yet be fully excluded.

description: Smartphones have unprecedented access to sensitive personal information. While users report having privacy concerns, they may not actively consider privacy while downloading apps from smartphone application marketplaces. Currently, Android users have only the Android permissions display, which appears after they have selected an app to download, to help them understand how applications access their information. We investigate how permissions and privacy could play a more active role in app-selection decisions. We designed a short "Privacy Facts" display, which we tested in a 20-participant lab study and a 366-participant online experiment. We found that by bringing privacy information to the user when they were making the decision and by presenting it in a clearer fashion, we could assist users in choosing applications that request fewer permissions.
The relation between velocity dispersions and chemical abundances in RAVE giants

description: We developed a Bayesian framework to determine in a robust way the relation between velocity dispersions and chemical abundances in a sample of stars. Our modelling takes into account the uncertainties in the chemical and kinematic properties. We make use of RAVE DR5 radial velocities and abundances together with Gaia DR1 proper motions and parallaxes (when possible, otherwise UCAC4 data is used). We found that, in general, the velocity dispersions increase with decreasing [Fe/H] and increasing [Mg/Fe]. A possible decrease in velocity dispersion for stars with high [Mg/Fe] is a property of a negligible fraction of stars and hardly a robust result. At low [Fe/H] and high [Mg/Fe] the sample is incomplete, affected by biases, and likely not representative of the underlying stellar population.

description: We study by light microscopy a soft glass consisting of a compact arrangement of polydisperse elastic spheres. We show that its slow and non-stationary dynamics results from the unavoidable small fluctuations of temperature, which induce intermittent local mechanical shear in the sample, because of thermal expansion and contraction. Temperature-induced shear provokes both reversible and irreversible rearrangements whose amplitude decreases with time, leading to an exponential slowing down of the dynamics with sample age.

Merger delay time distribution of extended emission short GRBs

description: The most popular progenitor model for short duration Gamma-Ray bursts (sGRBs) is the merger of two compact objects. However, the short GRB population exhibit a certain diversity: some bursts display an extended emission (EE), continuing in soft $γ$-rays for a few hundreds of seconds post the initial short pulse. It is currently unclear whether the origin of such bursts is linked to compact object mergers. Within the merger hypothesis, the redshift ($z$) distribution of short GRBs is influenced by the merger delay time, i.e., time elapsed between the merger and the formation of the binary star system, which is dominated by the time-scale for gravitational wave losses during the compact binary phase. We examine redshift distributions of short GRBs with extended emission to see whether their formation channel requires considerable delay post the star formation episode. Our results show that the $z$ distribution of EE bursts is consistent with the merger model. We attempted to compare the delay time distribution of the EE and the non-EE short bursts. However, no statistically significant difference could be seen within the limited sample size.

Algorithm 985: Simple, efficient, and relatively accurate approximation for the evaluation of the Faddeyeva function

Year: 2017
Subjects: subject: Instrumentation and Methods for Astrophysics (astro-ph.IM)

description: We present a new simple algorithm for efficient, and relatively accurate computation of the Faddeyeva function w(z). The algorithm carefully exploits previous approximations by Hui et al [1978] and Humlicek [1982] along with asymptotic expressions from Laplace continued fractions. Over a wide and fine grid of the complex argument, z=x+iy, numerical results from the present approximation show a maximum relative error less than 4.0x10-5 for both real and imaginary parts of w while running in a relatively shorter execution time than other competitive techniques. In addition to the calculation of the Faddeyeva function, w, partial derivatives of the real and imaginary parts of the function can easily be calculated and returned as optional output.
Repair of perineal lacerations in the cow

description: The increasing incidence of pneumovagina in beef cows may include heritable implications but many cases can be traced to injuries occurring during parturition. Simple vaginal lacerations are treated conservatively. Severe vulvar wounds and rectovulvar lacerations are successfully repaired by methods originally designed for use in mares. Pneumovagina complicated by extensive pooling of urine in the vagina is corrected by establishment of a transverse fold of vaginal floor cranial to the external urinary meatus.

description: This paper explores women’s and feminists’ struggles against feminicide in Mexico. The author analyzes the dominant notions of gender and violence at the core of the Mexican case. First, the article adopts a historical approach, highlighting some critical moments of women’s struggles to criminalize feminicide. In this section, the author briefly reconstructs the genealogy of the concept in the Americas, presenting the legal definition of feminicide and violence against women in the existing legal framework in Mexico. Second, the approach addresses the challenges and problems that trans feminicide poses to the current legal framework. This part discusses the violence emanating from a binary notion of gender-based violence and the binary conception of cis and heterosexual gender identity in the law. Here follows an introduction of two central concepts for the analysis of gender: cissexism and heteronormativity. Finally, the article addresses the structural dilemma of the criminalization of feminicide and the juridical strategy of framing women’s rights against gender-based violence as special rights.

description: Today’s computer users receive few assurances that their software executes as expected. The problem is that legacy devices do not enable personal verification of code execution. In addition, legacy devices lack trusted paths for secure user I/O making it difficult to ensure the privacy of data. We present PRISM, a software-only human-verifiable code execution system that temporally separates a legacy computer system into a trusted component and an untrusted component. PRISM enables a user to securely interact with applications by establishing a trusted path and enables personal verification of untampered application execution. PRISM enables the development of a new class of applications which we term personally verifiable applications (PVAs). PVAs have the property that a user can both securely interact with and execute these applications even in the face of a kernel-level compromise. We develop a personally verifiable digital signature application that assures the user that the password-protected private key is not misused and that neither the private key nor the password are disclosed to malware on the device. We describe an implementation of this application on a personal device, and evaluate the usability of our approach with a user study.

description: Detection of radio emission from exoplanets can provide information on the star-planet system that is difficult to study otherwise, such as the planetary magnetic field, magnetosphere, rotation period, interior structure, atmospheric dynamics and escape, and any star-planet interactions. Such a detection in the radio domain would open up a whole new field in the study of exoplanets. However, currently there are no confirmed detections of an exoplanet at radio frequencies. In this study, we search for non-thermal radio emission from the 55 Cnc system which has 5 known exoplanets. According to theoretical predictions 55 Cnc e, the innermost planet, is among the best targets for this search. We observed for 18 hours with the Low-Frequency Array (LOFAR) Low Band Antenna in the frequency range 26-73 MHz with full-polarization and covered 85% of the orbital phase of 55 Cnc e. During the observations four digital beams within the station beam were recorded simultaneously on 55 Cnc, nearby "empty" sky, a bright radio source, and a pulsar. A pipeline was created to automatically find and mask radio frequency interference, calibrate the time-frequency response of the telescope, and to search for bursty planetary radio signals in our data. Extensive tests and verifications were carried out on the pipeline. Analysis of the first 4 hours of these observations do not contain any exoplanet signal from 55 Cnc but we can confirm that our setup is adequate to detect faint astrophysical signals. We find a 3$σ$ upper limit for 55 Cnc of 230 mJy using the pulsar to estimate the sensitivity of the observations and 2.6 Jy using the time-series difference between the target and sky beam. The full data set is still under-going analysis. In the near future we will apply our observational technique and pipeline to the most promising exoplanet candidates for which LOFAR observations have already been obtained.

description: We examine the scaling law $B \propto M^α$ which connects organismal metabolic rate $B$ with organismal mass $M$, where $α$ is commonly held to be 3/4. Since simple dimensional analysis suggests $α=2/3$, we consider this to be a null hypothesis testable by empirical studies. We re-analyze data sets for mammals and birds compiled by Heusner, Bennett and Harvey, Bartels, Hemmingsen, Brody, and Kleiber, and find little evidence for rejecting $α=2/3$ in favor of $α=3/4$. For mammals, we find a possible breakdown in scaling for larger masses reflected in a systematic increase in $α$. We also review theoretical justifications of $α=3/4$ based on dimensional analysis, nutrient-supply networks, and four-dimensional biology. We find that present theories for $α=3/4$ require assumptions that render them unconvincing for rejecting the null hypothesis that $α=2/3$.

description: Phishing, or web spoofing, is a growing problem: the Anti-Phishing Working Group (APWG) received almost 14,000 unique phishing reports in August 2005, a 56% jump over the number of reports in December 2004. For financial institutions, phishing is a particularly insidious problem, since trust forms the foundation for customer relationships, and phishing attacks undermine confidence in an institution. Phishing attacks succeed by exploiting a user’s inability to distinguish legitimate sites from spoofed sites. Prior research focuses on assisting the user in making this distinction, but they require the user to make the right security decision every time. A single mistake results in a total compromise of the user’s online account. Unfortunately, humans are ill-suited for performing the security checks necessary for secure authentication. Fundamentally, users should be authenticated using information that they cannot readily reveal to malicious parties. Our system eliminates reliance on perfect user behavior and protects a user’s account even in the presence of keyloggers and other forms of spyware. We demonstrate the practicality of our system with a working prototype. Ultimately, placing less reliance on the user during the authentication process will enhance security and eliminate many forms of fraud.

description: Besides the conventional strong and electromagnetic decay modes, the $J/ψ$ particle can also decay via the weak interaction in the standard model. In this paper, nonleptonic $J/ψ$ ${\to}$ $D_{s,d}π$, $D_{s,d}K$ weak decays, corresponding to the externally emitted virtual $W$ boson process, are investigated with the perturbative QCD approach. It is found that branching ratio for the Cabibbo-favored $J/ψ$ ${\to}$ $D_{s}π$ decay can reach up to ${\cal O}(10^{-10})$, which might be potentially measurable at the future high-luminosity experiments.

title: Choosers: A Visual Programming Language for Nondeterministic Music Composition by Non-Programmers
Creators: name: Bellingham, Matt
Publisher: name: The Open University
Year: 2022

description: This thesis focuses on the design of Choosers, a prototype algorithmic programming system centred around a new abstraction (of the same name) designed to allow non-programmers access to nondeterministic music composition methods. Algorithmic composition typically involves structural elements such as indeterminism, parallelism, choice, multi-choice, nesting, weighting, and looping. There are powerful existing tools for manipulating these and other elements of music. However, while these systems give substantial compositional power to musicians who are also skilled programmers, many musicians who lack programming skills find these tools inaccessible and difficult to understand and use. This thesis presents the design and evaluation of a prototype visual programming language designed to allow structural elements of the kind involved in nondeterministic music composition to be readily visualised and manipulated, while making little or no demand on programming ability. Initially, a Cognitive Dimensions of Notations review of a representative selection of user interfaces for algorithmic composition software was conducted. The review led to a set of findings used to identify candidate design principles which were then tested via a series of design exercises. The findings from these design exercises led to the development of a new abstraction, the Chooser, via a series of iterative design cycles. Once a candidate design had been finalised it was evaluated with participants via two sets of programming walkthroughs, with the findings from each step used to refine the formalism. The final study used Choosers as a design probe through a series of interviews with domain experts in which manipulable compositions were introduced to prompt discussions on potential future implications for music computing education, music production, and music composition.
Ferromagnetic one dimensional Ti atomic chain

description: Using the full potential linearized augmented plane wave (FLAPW) method, we have explored the magnetic properties of one dimensional (1D) Ti atomic chain. Astonishingly, we for the first time observed that the 1D Ti atomic chain has ferromagnetic ground state even on NiAl(110) surface although the Ti has no magnetic moment in bulk or macroscopic state. It was found that the physical property of direct exchange interaction among Ti atoms occurred in free standing state is well preserved on NiAl(110) surface and this feature has an essential role in ferromagnetism of 1D Ti atomic chain. It was shown that the m=$|2|$ state has the largest contribution to the magnetic moment of Ti atom grown on NiAl(110) surface. In addition, we found that the magnetic dipole interaction is a key factor in the study of magnetic anisotropy, not the magnetocrystalline anisotropy arising from spin-orbit interaction.
title: Transformative Gerechtigkeit für Frauen? Reparationsstrategien im Kontext sexualisierter Kriegsgewalt

description: Sexualisierte Kriegsgewalt ist ein Verbrechen, das vor allem Frauen in zahlreichen Konflikten weltweit erleiden. Besonders die Demokratische Republik Kongo (DRC) ist betroffen, die einst von den Vereinten Nationen (UN) als „rape capital of the world“ bezeichnet wurde. Die DRC hat, wie viele andere UN-Mitgliedstaaten, einen Nationalen Aktionsplan (NAP) erstellt, welcher die Inhalte der Women, Peace and Security Agenda (WPS Agenda) der UN auf nationaler Ebene umsetzen soll. Dieser Beitrag analysiert, inwiefern die Demokratische Republik Kongo transformative Reparationsstrategien zur Prävention sexualisierter Kriegsgewalt in ihrem NAP implementiert und wie die spezifische Umsetzung im Kontext der Lokalisierung internationaler Normen zu erklären ist. Zunächst wird illustriert, warum transformative Reparationsstrategien als besonders wirksam gelten, sexualisierte Kriegsgewalt nachhaltig zu bekämpfen. Im zweiten Schritt werden mittels einer qualitativen Inhaltsanalyse nach Philipp Mayring sowohl die Agenda der WPS als auch der NAP der DRC auf das Vorkommen der Strategien untersucht. Die Ergebnisse der Analyse werden einander gegenübergestellt und im dritten Schritt anhand der Lokalisierungstheorie nach Amitav Acharya diskutiert. Im Ergebnis implementiert der NAP der DRC das Konzept transformativer Reparationsstrategien in geringerem Maße als die WPS Agenda, nämlich nur in den zwei Prinzipien Rehabilitierung und Garantien der Nicht-Wiederholung. Die Ursachen liegen in dem Spannungsverhältnis globaler und lokaler Dynamiken, in dem sich die Bekämpfung sexualisierter Kriegsgewalt wiederfindet. Zum einen ermöglicht die WPS Agenda einen hohen Grad an Flexibilität in ihrer Umsetzung, sodass entsprechende Maßnahmen den lokalen Gegebenheiten angepasst werden können. Zum anderen führt dieses Konzept zu einer Einflussnahme verschiedener Akteur*innen sowie zu einer Missachtung wichtiger Elemente auf lokaler Ebene, die ein Hindernis in der Bekämpfung des Verbrechens darstellen.

Electroejaculation of the bull
Creators: name: Ball, L.
name: Furman, J. W.
Publisher: name: The Bovine Practitioner
Year: 1972

description: The art of electroejaculation can be mastered with practice; however, the evaluation of semen collected by electroejaculation can be misleading if the physical condition of the bull is not considered. The greatest danger lies in classifying a bull as a questionable or unsatisfactory breeding prospect when he actually failed to ejaculate. There are many factors associated with effective electroejaculation of the bull, including the type of rectal probe, power output of the electroejaculator, and the skill of the operator. The design of the probe has an important bearing on the power required for electroejaculation and the associated skeletal muscular response of the bull. A rectal probe was designed to increase the efficiency of electroejaculation and to decrease the muscular contractions associated with it.

Large N behavior of two dimensional supersymmetric Yang-Mills quantum mechanics
Creators: name: Trzetrzelewski, Maciej
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2006
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Theory (hep-th)

description: We analyze the $N \to \infty $ limit of supersymmetric Yang-Mills quantum mechanics (SYMQM) in two spacetime dimensions. To do so we introduce a particular class of SU(N) invariant polynomials and give the solutions of 2D SYMQM in terms of them. We conclude that in this limit the system is not fully described by the single trace operators $Tr({a^{\dagger}}^n)$ since there are other, bilinear operators $Tr^n(a^{\dagger}a^{\dagger})$ that play a crucial role when the hamiltonian is free.

description: Data provenance describes how data came to be in its present form. It includes data sources and the transformations that have been applied to them. Data provenance has many uses, from forensics and security to aiding the reproducibility of scientific experiments. We present CamFlow, a whole-system provenance capture mechanism that integrates easily into a PaaS offering. While there have been several prior whole-system provenance systems that captured a comprehensive, systemic and ubiquitous record of a system's behavior, none have been widely adopted. They either A) impose too much overhead, B) are designed for long-outdated kernel releases and are hard to port to current systems, C) generate too much data, or D) are designed for a single system. CamFlow addresses these shortcoming by: 1) leveraging the latest kernel design advances to achieve efficiency; 2) using a self-contained, easily maintainable implementation relying on a Linux Security Module, NetFilter, and other existing kernel facilities; 3) providing a mechanism to tailor the captured provenance data to the needs of the application; and 4) making it easy to integrate provenance across distributed systems. The provenance we capture is streamed and consumed by tenant-built auditor applications. We illustrate the usability of our implementation by describing three such applications: demonstrating compliance with data regulations; performing fault/intrusion detection; and implementing data loss prevention. We also show how CamFlow can be leveraged to capture meaningful provenance without modifying existing applications.

Mineral nutrition of the beef cow to impact immunologic response
Creators: name: Clark, C. K.

Publisher: name: The Bovine Practitioner
Year: 1995

description: The role of minerals in beef cattle diets continues to be a strong area of interest for producers, veterinarians and scientists. Minerals are required for a variety of metabolic functions including the immune system's response to pathogenic challenges. Maintaining the immune response through proper mineral supplementation may have a positive impact on herd health and ultimately, profitability of cow-calf operations. However, mineral supplementation strategies quickly become complex because of differences in forage mineral bioavailability, interactions among minerals which can inhibit mineral absorption, and difficulty in easily assessing cow mineral status. The effects of copper, zinc, cobalt and chromium on the immune system are the primary focus of this paper.

description: Kilohertz QPO sources are reasonably well-characterized observationally, but many questions remain about the theoretical framework for these sources and the consequent implications of the observations for disk physics, strong gravity, and dense matter. We contrast the predictions and implications of the most extensively studied class of kilohertz QPO models, the beat-frequency models, with those of alternative classes of models. We also discuss the expected impact of new observations of these sources with satellites such as Chandra, XMM, and Constellation-X.

description: The address translation subsystem of operating systems, hypervisors, and virtual machine monitors must correctly enforce address space separation in the presence of adversaries. The size, and hierarchical nesting, of the data structures over which such systems operate raise challenges for automated model checking techniques to be fruitfully applied to them. We address this problem by developing a sound and complete parametric verification technique that achieves the best possible reduction in model size. Our results significantly generalize prior work on this topic, and bring interesting systems within the scope of analysis. We demonstrate the applicability of our approach by modeling shadow paging mechanisms of Xen version 3:0:3 and ShadowVisor, a research hypervisor developed for the x86 platform.
