description: We present a full Bayesian analysis of multiplicative double seasonal autoregressive (DSAR) models in a unified way, considering identification (best subset selection), estimation, and prediction problems. We assume that the DSAR model errors are normally distributed and introduce latent variables for the model lags, and then we embed the DSAR model in a hierarchical Bayes normal mixture structure. By employing the Bernoulli prior for each latent variable and the mixture normal and inverse gamma priors for the DSAR model coefficients and variance, respectively, we derive the full conditional posterior and predictive distributions in closed form. Using these derived conditional posterior and predictive distributions, we present the full Bayesian analysis of DSAR models by proposing the Gibbs sampling algorithm to approximate the posterior and predictive distributions and provide multi-step-ahead predictions. We evaluate the efficiency of the proposed full Bayesian analysis of DSAR models using an extensive simulation study, and we then apply our work to several real-world hourly electricity load time series datasets in 16 European countries.

description: Объект исследования – переводческий репертуар и состав переводчиков первого российского частного ежемесячного издания. Задача научной работы – попытка систематизировать собранные данные о переводчиках-сотрудниках журнала «Трудолюбивая Пчела». Цель исследования – с помощью статистического и описательного методов доказать, что журнал имел собственную редакционную политику в отношении выбора переводной литературы, отличную от тенденций середины XVIII века. Анализ всех 12 номеров позволил установить языки-источники, распределение переводов с конкретных языков; состав классических авторов и писателей Нового времени. Авторы статьи доказывают, что наличие переводов древней литературы может быть объяснено религиозно-философской направленностью журнала, желанием реабилитации античной мифологии. В статье приводятся данные о членстве некоторых переводчиков в масонских ложах. Авторы делают вывод о том, что переводчики журнала составляли элиту, новую генерацию европейски образованных гуманитариев.

Talibanistan - Der Anti-Staat
Creators: name: Schetter, Conrad
Publisher: name: Internationales Asienforum
Year: 2016

description: Due to the dominance of the Taliban the media are increasingly using the term "Talibanistan" to describe the region which stretches from the Eastern border of Iran to Kashmir. By discussing the socio-economic structures of Talibanistan this article aims to contribute to the ongoing debate on "failed states" and the "war on terror". Talibanistan has thus not only developed into a region characterized by the failing or absence of modern state functions; furthermore, the behaviour of local elites expresses anti-state attitudes derived from local amalgamations of tribal and Islamic norms and values as well as from the dominance of illicit economies. The case of Talibanistan therefore illustrates that the academic debate on failed states is too much influenced by the ideal type of a Weberian state and takes too little into consideration that political developments in many regions of the world (e.g. Horn of Africa, Afghanistan) are targeting the modern state order per se. Moreover, this contribution attempts to go beyond typical military analyses, which focus mainly on the combat operations in the "war on terror" between NATO and the Taliban movement and often enough ignore the socio-economic dimension of this conflict.

description: MR-based methods provide low risk, non-invasive assessment of joint kinematics, however these methods often use static positions or require many identical cycles of movement. Study objectives were to develop a new 3D knee kinematic method requiring only a few cycles of motion (based on ultrafast gradient echo with water suppression), demonstrate the use of a novel 8-channel stretchable knee coil, and compare the results from this dynamic method to a 3D sequential static method, repeated using both a standard sequence and the new fast sequence.Ten normal volunteers were imaged using the three kinematic methods (dynamic, static standard, static fast). Results showed that the two sets of static results were in agreement, indicating the sequences (standard and fast) may be used interchangeably. Dynamic kinematic results were significantly different from both static results in eight of 11 kinematic parameters: patellar flexion, patellar tilt, patellar proximal translation, patellar lateral translation, patellar anterior translation, tibial abduction, tibial internal rotation, tibial anterior translation. Three-dimensional MR kinematics measured from dynamic knee motion are often different from those measured in a static knee at several positions, indicating that dynamic-based kinematics provides information that is not obtainable from static scans.

Modelling a smart music player with a hybrid agent-oriented methodology

Publisher: name: Swinburne
Year: 2024

description: This paper presents experience with using a hybrid agent-oriented software engineering methodology for designing an agent-based software system. We elicit and analyse system requirements using ROADMAP, with associated tool REBEL. We develop initial system design using Prometheus with associated tool PDT. Applying the combination of the methodologies facilitates understanding of system requirements by non-technical clients. A key feature of our work is its handling of quality requirements, which are identified as an essential asset for analysing design alternatives. We contribute to the current state of art by demonstrating the application of a hybrid methodology with a case study of a smart music player. We created concrete artefacts to represent models and found and clarified conflicting concepts between the two methodologies when we developed the case study. Suggestions are proposed to facilitate goal elicitation and verification.

description: In Regelklassen finden sich heute immer häufiger Kinder mit einer Autismus-Diagnose. Zahlreiche Erwachsene mit Autismus berichten zugleich von schwierigen Erlebnissen während ihrer Schulzeit. Vor diesem Hintergrund wurde in dieser Masterarbeit untersucht, wie eine wertschätzende Interaktion zwischen einem Kind im Autismus-Spektrum und neurotypischen Kindern gelingen kann und welche Rahmenbedingungen es in der Schule braucht. Mittels Literaturrecherche zu Grundlagen, aktuellem Forschungsstand und Erfahrungsberichten von Betroffenen konnte aufgezeigt werden, dass eine inklusionsorientierte Haltung und eine spezifische Aus- und Weiterbildung der pädagogischen Fachpersonen essenziell für eine wertschätzende Interaktion sind. Die Förderung eines positiven Klassenklimas und sozialer Kompetenzen, strukturelle und didaktische Unterrichtsanpassungen sowie die Aufklärung der Mitschüler:innen sind Faktoren, die massgebend Einfluss auf das Beziehungsklima nehmen.

description: Ecosystem services have a significant impact on human wellbeing. While ecosystem services are frequently represented by monetary values, social values and underlying social benefits remain under explored. The purpose of this study is to assess whether and how social benefits have been explicitly addressed within socio-economic and socio-cultural ecosystem services research, ultimately allowing a better understanding between ecosystem services and human well-being. In this paper, we reviewed 115 international primary valuation studies and tested four hypotheses associated to the identification of social benefits of ecosystem services using logistic regressions. Tested hypotheses were that (1) social benefits are mostly derived in studies that assess cultural ecosystem services as opposed to other ecosystem service types, (2) there is a pattern of social benefits and certain cultural ecosystem services assessed simultaneously, (3) monetary valuation techniques go beyond expressing monetary values and convey social benefits, and (4) directly addressing stakeholder's views the consideration of social benefits in ecosystem service assessments. Our analysis revealed that (1) a variety of social benefits are valued in studies that assess either of the four ecosystem service types, (2) certain social benefits are likely to co-occur in combination with certain cultural ecosystem services, (3) of the studies that employed monetary valuation techniques, simulated market approaches overlapped most frequently with the assessment of social benefits and (4) studies that directly incorporate stakeholder's views were more likely to also assess social benefits.

description: Web service policies capture the capabilities and requirements of Web services from both functional and nonfunctional perspectives. Policies of a Web service govern and ensure the runtime consistency of the service, i.e., people or services interacting with this service are only allowed to perform legitimate actions. When composing Web services, policies of the participated Web services have to be compatible in order to make sensible compositions. Unfortunately, due to heterogeneity of policy specification languages, it is difficult to compare policies of different Web services directly. In this paper, we propose an approach for compatibility checking of Web service policies specified in difference languages. In particular, our approach applies the model-oriented specification from the Vienna Development Method (VDM++). An executable formal model of policy languages is represented in VDM++ and different policies are then translated to this VDM++ model for compatibility checking. Our approach has been validated by a prototype with different Web service policy languages such as WSPL and WS-Policy.

description: Background: Resource allocation is a key challenge for healthcare decision makers. While several case studies of organizational practice exist, there have been few large-scale cross-organization comparisons. Methods Between January and April 2011, we conducted an on-line survey of senior decision makers within regional health authorities (and closely equivalent organizations) across all Canadian provinces and territories. We received returns from 92 individual managers, from 60 out of 89 organizations in total. The survey inquired about structures, process features, and behaviours related to organization-wide resource allocation decisions. We focus here on three main aspects: type of process, perceived fairness, and overall rating. Results About one-half of respondents indicated that their organization used a formal process for resource allocation, while the others reported that political or historical factors were predominant. Seventy percent (70%) of respondents self-reported that their resource allocation process was fair and just over one-half assessed their process as ‘good’ or ‘very good’. This paper explores these findings in greater detail and assesses them in context of the larger literature. Conclusion Data from this large-scale cross-jurisdictional survey helps to illustrate common challenges and areas of positive performance among Canada’s health system leadership teams.
Small business in developing economies: A study of entrepreneurship in Nepal
Creators: name: Bhawuk, Dharm
Publisher: name: Swinburne
Year: 2024

description: The role of entrepreneurship in economic growth of a country is often accepted as a truism. Scholars are also in agreement that there is a need to adjust development programs to local need. Thus, there is a need to study entrepreneurship in the cultural context. Fairbairn (1988), based on his Pacific experience, argued that Schumpeter’s concept of the innovating entrepreneur appears to have a limited value in understanding entrepreneurship in many developing countries where the entrepreneurial ask lies in applying, modifying, and adapting existing knowledge rather than in implementing ideas based on new discoveries. He further noted that large closely integrated families or kinship groups continue to persist in many developing countries, which means that the focus should be on the family as entrepreneurial unit rather than on the individual. Peterson (1988) categorically states that ’entrepreneurship’s true believers often fail to appreciate the degree to which effective entrepreneurship is enmeshed with culture’ and that ’gradually it is becoming clear that each country/culture must develop its own brand of entrepreneurship and raise its own champions to promote entrepreneurial behavior that fits the prevailing societal mores’. There has been some research examining entrepreneurship in its cultural context in Norway and Ireland (Hornaday, 1986; Hisrich, 1988). However, there is a dearth of coverage of Asian entrepreneurs. It is in this context that the present survey of Nepali entrepreneurs was carried out.

description: This work presents a new algorithm based on a combination of fuzzy (FUZ), Dynamic Programming (DP) and Genetic Algorithm (GA) approach for capacitor allocation in distribution feeders. The problem formulation considers two distinct objectives related to total cost of power loss and total cost of capacitors including the purchase and installation costs. The novel formulation is a multi-objective and non-differentiable optimization problem. The proposed method of this article uses fuzzy reasoning for sitting of capacitors in radial distribution feeders, DP for sizing and finally GA for finding the optimum shape of membership functions which are used in fuzzy reasoning stage. The proposed method has been implemented in a software package and its effectiveness has been verified throug a 9-bus radial distribution feeder for the sake of conclusions supports. A comparison has been done among the proposed method of this paper and similar methods in other research works that shows the effectiveness of the proposed method of this paper for solving optimum capacitor planning problem.

The whistle we all heard: a re-conceptualisation of the ‘dog-whistle’ in politics and journalism
Creators: name: Bossio, Diana
Publisher: name: Swinburne
Year: 2024

description: On November 24, 2007, eleven years of John Howard’s leadership of Australia came to an end. In much of the subsequent media analysis of Howard’s loss to Kevin Rudd, journalists suggested that the public were ‘no longer listening’ to Liberal party rhetoric (see Atkins 2007, p. 53; Beattie 2007, p. 55). Howard’s previously successful communication about trust, terrorism and Tampa, with all their inaudible appeals to conservative politics, seemed to fall on deaf ears during the campaign. Much academic work has been published on Howard’s penchant for this type of ‘dog whistle’ politics, especially his seemingly veiled Hanson-esque coupling of immigration, asylum seekers and terrorism in the children overboard scandal. While these quiet references may have been especially pertinent for a public still rattled by the events of September 11, 2001, seven years later, this fear of the Other, whether of Muslims or of a Labor-led economy, did not similarly translate into support for Howard. How such a seasoned political player, with so many resources for effective political communication, could fail to make himself heard is a question for further investigation. This paper is concerned with the conception of ‘dog whistles’ in politics and journalism as an effective mode of appealing to an electorate. In light of Howard’s election loss, understanding of dog whistle politics needs to take into consideration the complexities of politicised cultural discourses. [Introduction]

Die maritime Integration Ostasiens
Creators: name: Ziltener, Patrick
Publisher: name: Internationales Asienforum
Year: 2016

description: One of the main characteristics of regional integration in East Asia is its predominantly maritime form. This article examines the sea-related aspects of regional integration: from the historic constitution of the region through sea traffic, the sustained significance of the "East Asian Mediterranean Sea" as basic structure of the region, the importance of harbours, shipyards and coastal economic zones, to transnational cooperations in fighting piracy. The high number of maritime border disputes and the increasing naval arms race are among the core obstacles to the further peaceful integration of the region.

Twitter free Iran: an evaluation of Twitter's role in public diplomacy and information operations in Iran's 2009 election crisis
Creators: name: Burns, Alex
name: Eltham, Ben
Publisher: name: Swinburne
Year: 2024

description: Social media platforms such as Twitter pose new challenges for decision-makers in an international crisis. We examine Twitter's role during Iran's 2009 election crisis using a comparative analysis of Twitter investors, US State Department diplomats, citizen activists and Iranian protesters and paramilitary forces. We code for key events during the election's aftermath from 12 June to 5 August 2009, and evaluate Twitter. Foreign policy, international political economy and historical sociology frameworks provide a deeper context of how Twitter was used by different users for defensive information operations and public diplomacy. Those who believe Twitter and other social network technologies will enable ordinary people to seize power from repressive regimes should consider the fate of Iran's protesters, some of whom paid for their enthusiastic adoption of Twitter with their lives.

description: Background: Stroke has emerged as a significant and escalating health problem for Asian populations. We compared risk factors, quality of care and risk of death or recurrent stroke in South Asian, East Asian and White patients with acute ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke. Methods Retrospective analysis was performed on consecutive patients with ischemic stroke or intracerebral hemorrhage admitted to 12 stroke centers in Ontario, Canada (July 2003-March 2008) and included in the Registry of the Canadian Stroke Network database. The database was linked to population-based administrative databases to determine one-year risk of death or recurrent stroke. Results The study included 253 South Asian, 513 East Asian and 8231 White patients. East Asian patients were more likely to present with intracerebral hemorrhage (30%) compared to South Asian (17%) or White patients (15%) (p<0.001). Time from stroke to hospital arrival was similarly poor with delays >2 hours for more than two thirds of patients in all ethnic groups. Processes of stroke care, including thrombolysis, diagnostic imaging, antithrombotic medications, and rehabilitation services were similar among ethnic groups. Risk of death or recurrent stroke at one year after ischemic stroke was similar for patients who were White (27.6%), East Asian (24.7%, aHR 0.97, 95% CI 0.78-1.21 vs. White), or South Asian (21.9%, aHR 0.91, 95% CI 0.67-1.24 vs. White). Although risk of death or recurrent stroke at one year after intracerebral hemorrhage was higher in East Asian (35.5%) and White patients (47.9%) compared to South Asian patients (30.2%) (p=0.002), these differences disappeared after adjustment for age, sex, stroke severity and comorbid conditions (aHR 0.89 [0.67-1.19] for East Asian vs White and 0.99 [0.54-1.81] for South Asian vs. White). Conclusion After stratification by stroke type, stroke care and outcomes are similar across ethnic groups in Ontario. Enhanced health promotion is needed to reduce delays to hospital for all ethnic groups.
Vaters Tochter und Mutters Tochter - Park Geunhye als Anführerin des konservativen Lagers in Korea
Creators: name: Lee, Eun-Jeung
Publisher: name: Internationales Asienforum
Year: 2016

description: Park Geunhye is one of the most prominent candidates for the Korean presidential elections in December 2007. Her name is strongly associated with that of her father Park Cheung Hee, during whose authoritarian rule South Korea became a modern industrialized nation. In public Park Geunhye often stresses the fact that she is Park Chung Hee's daughter and she never even tries to distance herself from the darker aspectes of her father's reign. Her rise to political prominence illustrates the paradoxical nature of South Korean political culture since democratization in 1987. Only 10 years later the Korean economy was drawn into the East Asian financial crisis. Its severe impact on the Korean economy was one of the causes of an emerging nostalgia for the former dictator Park Chung Hee - and it was his daughter who gained most from this nostalgia. Therefore she has not made the least effort to step out of the shadow of her father and has remained the "princess of the late dictator". In this role she finds support among conservative and ultra-conservative voters, i.e. by at most 30 percent of the electorate, and only as long as the nostalgia for her father continues. Yet, even if she can muster 30 percent support, this will not be sufficient to win the presidential elections. Therefore, she would have to win over other sections of the electorate, which is difficult as long as she sticks to her princess' role. Here lies the biggest dilemma for Park Geunhye and her political future.

A New Banknote in the People's Republic. The Iconography of the Kip and Ideological Transformations in Laos, 1957-2006
Creators: name: Tappe, Oliver
Publisher: name: Internationales Asienforum
Year: 2016

description: In this article the author addresses a specific symbolic strategy to promote the image of a nation - the iconography of the banknote. By looking at the Lao Kip, he analyses the changing configurations of various icons as representations of the national ideology of Laos. The iconography of the Kip witnessed considerable variations during the half century after independence in 1954, reflecting sociopolitical transformations. Monarchy, socialist revolution and the post-reform era leave clear traces within the iconic reconstructions visible on the Kip. The author wishes to indicate that the analysis of paper money is an effective method to examine ideological processes of nation-building. Moreover, the symbolic politics of a late-socialist regime striving for legitimacy are elucidated by employing the example of the Lao People's Democratic Republic.

Configurations of Globalization in Laos and Cambodia
Creators: name: Rehbein, Boike
Publisher: name: Internationales Asienforum
Year: 2016

description: How do various tendencies and the differing pace of globalization affect nationally organized societies? The paper deals with this question by comparing the "opened" society of Cambodia to the recently but hesitantly opening society of Laos. It argues that the import of globalized institutions leads to friction in both countries. However, this friction is more pronounced in Cambodia due to the excessive speed of the imports. To explain the friction, the paper looks at the historical evolution of contemporary cultures and social structures and their persistence as "sociocultures". Globalizing tendencies combine with local socio-cultures to form specific hybrids producing localized friction. Cambodia's socio-cultures are challenged too directly and immediately by globalizing tendencies, which produces backlashes by the elite. In Laos, the elite firmly controls the political field and the public sphere and can therefore allow for an increasing globalization of the economic field. The paper looks at the structure of the pollitical field, the economic field and the public sphere in each country to draw conclusions about the immediate prospects for both countries. The analysis adapts Pierre Bourdieu's sociology to the local circumstances.

The End of Urban Involution and the Cultural Construction of Urbanism in Indonesia
Creators: name: Evers, Hans-Dieter
Publisher: name: Internationales Asienforum
Year: 2016

description: Urbanization in Indonesia, as elsewhere in Southeast Asia, was low up to the 1970s, prompting some authors to speak of urban involution. Since then a giant mega-city has developed around Jakarta, known as Jabotabek, and other cities like Surabaya, Bandung and Medan have grown to metropolitan proportions. This paper is, however, less concerned with the demographic aspects of urbanization, but with the culture of cities, with urbanism. Lacking a strong tradition of urbanism and having to battle with urban involution, Indonesian urbanism was symbolically constructed through the architecture of significant buildings, monuments and the planning of city space. During the post-independence Sukarno era the dream of Jakarta as the world capital of emerging forces determined the image of the city, while New Order Indonesia under Suharto rediscovered the pre-colonial past. Global modernism is guiding the virtual construction of Indonesian cities into the third millennium. With the end of urban involution "real urbanism" replaced the "virtual urbanism" of the past and Jakarta evolved into a modern capital of a democratizing and decentralising state. Cases from several Indonesian and other Southeast Asian cities are presented as evidence for these assumptions.

Sri Lanka - Zur Rolle des Sicherheitsdilemmas in ethnischen Konflikten
Creators: name: Weiberg, Mirjam
Publisher: name: Internationales Asienforum
Year: 2016

description: At the beginning of the 21st century ethnic or racial conflicts proliferate all over the world. Many ethnic conflicts - for example the conflict between the Sri Lankan state and the Tamil Tigers - are characterized by constant efforts at conflict resolution interspersed with renewed violence, with cycles of military escalation and de-escalation. Also, they are marked by the helpnessness of the international actors, who profess their interest in a resolution and try to mediate between the contending parties. But they are rarely successful - why? The most important question in war and peacetime is whether it is possible to achieve security. In many Asian countries people perceive politics and security in ethnic terms. Security often means applying their security definition to the nation-state. Especially during the peace negotiations it is of vital importance to reflect on these various ethnically framed security perceptions and constructions, because structure and content of these definitions provide the scope for peace settlements. Third Parties engaged in mediating violent conflicts have to keep in mind that it is the elusive balance of these security schemes which determine successful negotiations and a permanent solution.
