description: Esta dissertação discute a experimentação e seus caminhos construídos por Asger Jorn e Herberto
 Helder como um mecanismo de desgaste dos meios e das formas artísticas, um posicionamento
 teórico-crítico sobre suas práticas, a arte, a poesia de uma forma geral e como posturas
 avant-garde que não os vinculam a movimentos artístico-literários específicos. A
 experimentação é, por outro lado, o que permite seus deslocamentos por entre movimentos e
 vanguardas, principalmente, no segundo pós-guerra. Apesar de trazermos para a discussão
 objetos de análises cujas práticas artístico-literárias seguem percursos paralelos, eles são
 atravessados por estratégias composicionais correspondentes que geram descentramentos e
 tensões, cada um à sua maneira, que confrontam suas próprias formas artística. Esse combate
 não se refere à negação da arte, nem a afirmação do seu paradigma. Seu alvo é a possibilidade
 de estagnação e monumentalização da arte e das suas formas gerada pela relação entre
 extremos. Para isso, Asger Jorn e Herberto Helder constroem através da experimentação
 lugares outros que serão abordados aqui. This dissertation discusses the experimentation and its paths constructed by Asger Jorn and
 Herberto Helder as a friccion mechanism of means and artistic forms, a theoretical-critical and
 avant-garde position on their practices, art and poetry in general, that do not imprison them to
 any specific artistic-literary movement. Experimentation, on the other hand, allows their
 displacements between movements and vanguards, especially in the second post-war period.
 Although we bring to the discussion analysis objects with parallel artistic-literary practices,
 they pass through corresponding compositional strategies that generate decentralizations and
 tensions, in their different ways, that confront their own artistic forms. This struggle does not
 mean to deny art, nor assert its paradigm. It stands up to the possibility of the art and its forms
 being stagnant and monumentalized due to the relation between extremes. For this, Asger Jorn
 and Herberto Helder build through experimentation other places that will be addressed here.

description: Libya’s conflict is one of the lengthy unsettled conflicts currently existent in the international order. The European Union (EU), as a core international actor supporting the resolution of the conflict, has provided a response in human rights (HR) issues as well as security. These two areas are essential in EU foreign policy (EU FP), which operates simultaneously with one another, considering the different positions of both inside EU FP - human rights being a legitimate aim and a value, whereas security a goal and priority. Nevertheless, in the situation of the refugee crisis context (from 2015 onwards) in Libya, areas under the field of security – such as border management – have experienced not only some issues when following their mandate due to the fragile situation in the country, but also the need to consider human rights in the centre of their activities. This is because human rights violations can create insecurities and in order to deal with them, military power is not enough to guarantee stability and security in the country. While the EU already specifies its activity as both, the research aims to demonstrate why more intersection between the fields of human rights and security under EU FP will benefit not only the position of the EU as an international actor in the conflict but more importantly, will promote a step forward on supporting the achievement of a political settlement as well as to guarantee sustainable peace in Libya.

description: Harmful cyanobacterial blooms (=cyanoHABs) are an increasing feature of many waterbodies throughout the world. Many bloom-forming species produce toxins, making them of particular concern for drinking water supplies, recreation and fisheries in waterbodies along the freshwater to marine continuum. Global changes resulting from human impacts, such as climate change, over-enrichment and hydrological alterations of waterways, are major drivers of cyanoHAB proliferation and persistence. This review advocates that to better predict and manage cyanoHABs in a changing world, researchers need to leverage studies undertaken to date, but adopt a more complex and definitive suite of experiments, observations, and models which can effectively capture the temporal scales of processes driven by eutrophication and a changing climate. Better integration of laboratory culture and field experiments, as well as whole system and multiple-system studies are needed to improve confidence in models predicting impacts of climate change and anthropogenic over-enrichment and hydrological modifications. Recent studies examining adaptation of species and strains to long-term perturbations, e.g. temperature and carbon dioxide (CO2) levels, as well as incorporating multi-species and multi-stressor approaches emphasize the limitations of approaches focused on single stressors and individual species. There are also emerging species of concern, such as toxic benthic cyanobacteria, for which the effects of global change are less well understood, and require more detailed study. This review provides approaches and examples of studies tackling the challenging issue of understanding how global changes will affect cyanoHABs, and identifies critical information needs for effective prediction and management.

description: The conductive bridge non-volatile memory technology is an emerging way to replace traditional charge based memory devices for future neural networks and configurable logic applications. An array of the memory devices that fulfills logic operations must be developed for implementing such architectures. A scheme to fabricate these arrays, using ion bombardment through a mask, has been suggested and advanced by us. Performance of the memory devices is studied, based on the formation of vias and damage accumulation due to the interactions of Ar+ ions with GexSe1-x (x=0.2, 0.3 and 0.4) chalcogenide glasses as a function of the ion energy and dose dependence. Blanket films and devices were created to study the structural changes, surface roughness, and device performance. Raman Spectroscopy, Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM), Energy Dispersive X-Ray Spectroscopy (EDS) and electrical measurements expound the Ar+ ions behavior on thin films of GexSe1-x system. Raman studies show that there is a decrease in area ratio between edge-shared to corner-shared structural units, revealing occurrence of structural reorganization within the system as a result of ion/film interaction. AFM results demonstrate a tendency in surface roughness improvement with increased Ge concentration, after ion bombardment. EDS results reveal a compositional change in the vias, with a clear tendency of greater interaction between ions and the Ge atoms, as evidenced by greater compositional changes in the Ge rich films.

description: Die Verheißungen einer effektiven und demokratisch legitimierten Menschenrechtspolitik sind erheblich verblasst. Ein Grund dafür ist sicherlich, dass die Legitimationsbasis einer Menschenrechtspolitik, die auf verbindlichen, völkerrechtlichen Standards beruht, mehr als einmal diskreditiert wurde. Zudem ist eine allgemeine Ernüchterung in der globalen Menschenrechtspolitik auszumachen. Wir sind mit geradezu paradoxen Phänomen konfrontiert, dass zwar immer mehr Staaten Menschenrechtsabkommen ratifizieren, aber die Menschenrechtspraxis sich nicht verbessert, sondern in vielen Fällen sogar verschlechtert. Und schließlich ist den internationalen Menschenrechtsregimen aus Verträgen und völkerrechtlich bindenden Konventionen eine Art „Gegen-Menschenrechtsbewegung“ afrikanischer, asiatischer und islamisch geprägter Staaten erwachsen, die jüngeren Menschenrechtsabkommen unübersehbar ihren partikularistischen Stempel aufdrücken. Wir leben im Postmenschenrechtszeitalter: Niemand stellt die Menschenrechte öffentlich ernsthaft in Frage, aber kaum jemand erachtet sie noch als wirkungsmächtiges politisches Instrument für die internationale Politik.

description: Version: Author accepted manuscript Abstract Security sector reform and the protection of civilians are regular features within United Nations (UN) peace operations. However, the two areas are often distinct from one another in the mandates of missions. What then is the relationship between Security Sector Reform (ssr) and the Protection of Civilians (PoC) in contemporary missions and how does ssr impact PoC? This article aims to draw out this relationship by conducting a comparative case study analysis based on three missions that all combine a ssr and PoC mandate: the United Nations Multidimensional Integrated Stabilization Mission in Mali (minusma), the United Nations Multidimensional Integrated Stabilization Mission in the Central African Republic (minusca) and the United Nations Organization Stabilization Mission in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (monusco). The case studies provide a variety of examples which demonstrate elements of both convergence and divergence in the implementation of ssr and PoC. With ssr often taking place in a context of armed conflict, the current focus on human rights training and accountability is insufficient as the missions fail to achieve long-term ssr goals and instead must prioritise PoC due to the actions of the host states.

description: In 2017, Global Affairs Canada (GAC) passed the country’s latest foreign policy entitled, Canada’s Feminist International Assistance Policy (CFIAP). Individuals have praised this policy, claiming it as a “game changer in international development” (Marwah, “Canada’s New”, para. 12). However, some feminist scholars criticize the policy, arguing it “acts as a feminist fig leaf for major initiatives in other foreign policy areas (especially defense) that are not feminist” and therefore, lacks a foundational feminist framework (Brown and Swiss, “CFIAP: Game Changer or Fig Leaf”, 129). It is crucial to ask whether this new feminist foreign policy is ultimately feminist, and question the actors who define that feminism. Throughout this analysis, it is argued that Canada is failing to ensure adequate protections of vulnerable groups, both nationally and internationally. I conduct an examination of CFIAP to uncover whether the policy aligns with feminist reasoning and question if it is reflective of the situation within Canada’s national borders. There is particular focus on indigenous women and girls, following the cases of the missing and murdered indigenous women and girls in Canada (MMIWG). This is done using a critical feminist lens, informed by intersectionality, feminist research ethics (FRE) and anticolonial epistemology. Keywords: Canada’s Feminist International Assistance Policy, Foreign Policy, Feminism, Intersectionality, Canada, Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women.

description: Photo- and electroproduction of $KΣ$ have been investigated near their production thresholds by using an effective Lagrangian approach. For this purpose, the background amplitude is constructed from suitable Feynman diagrams, whereas the resonance terms are calculated by means of the Breit-Wigner form of multipoles. Experimental data available in the proton channels ($K^+Σ^0$ and $K^0Σ^+$) with energies up to 50 MeV above the thresholds have been utilized to extract the unknown parameters. In these proton channels the calculated observables fit nicely the experimental data, whereas in the neutron channels ($K^+Σ^-$ and $K^0Σ^0$) the predicted observables contain some uncertainties due to the the uncertainties in the values of helicity photon couplings. To this end, new $K^0Σ^+$ photoproduction data are urgently required. The present analysis indicates the validity of the $P_Λ= -\frac{1}{3} P_Σ$ relation derived a long time ago. In the electroproduction sector the present analysis confirms the smooth transition between photoproduction and low $Q^2$ electroproduction data. The effect of new Crystal Ball data is shown to be mild at the backward angles. It is also found that the electroproductions of $K^0Σ^+$ and $K^0Σ^0$ are practically not the suitable reactions for investigating the $K^0$ charge form factor, since the effect is small.

description: Abstract The Sub Saharan Africa agricultural sector is one of the most disadvantaged regions, partly due to high fertiliser import costs from the northern hemisphere. Malawi is one such country which faces these fertiliser challenges for the agricultural sector growth and food crop production. However, Malawi has numerous intrusive alkaline rocks, nepheline syenites, especially within the Chilwa alkaline province. This study was therefore conducted to assess these nepheline syenites for their potential as potassium sources. We used Malawi's new airborne geophysical gamma ray data acquired in 2013, coupled with satellite remote sensing, to identify nepheline syenites suitable as possible sources for alternative silicate K-fertiliser, and carried out geochemical analysis of whole rock samples. Results show that the K2O content for the nepheline syenites varies from 3.17 wt % to 9.14 wt % with an average of 5.22 wt %. The K2O/Na2O ratio for Malawi's nepheline syenites ranges from 0.41 to 1.28 with an average of 0.65 showing that the nepheline syenites are mostly sodic but with variable composition. In addition to nepheline, the calcium feldspathoid davidsmithite ((Na,Ca)AlSiO4) was identified in the syenites using scanning electron microscopy with energy dispersive analysis. Although the different intrusive complexes are not homogenous, our results show that, generally, the nepheline syenites from Malawi have similar geochemistry and mineralogical composition to those which have been used as crushed-rock fertilisers in other parts of the world.

description: A revista Música Viva, publicada em 1942, contou com a colaboração de agentes do campo da música de todas as Américas, sugerindo uma rede de colaboradores em um plano internacional, ligados a figura emblemática de Francisco Curt Lange e seus empreendimentos de Americanismo Musical. Por meio da correspondência de Lange neste período, trocada com estes agentes, podemos inferir um esquema internacional de cooperação entre profissionais da música de várias partes do mundo, entre os quais podemos destacar: Hermann Scherchen da Suíça, Hans-Joachim Koellreutter e Francisco Mignone do Brasil, Hugo Balzo do Uruguai e Charles Seeger dos Estados Unidos. A tentativa de Lange, ao editar a revista Música Viva, foi redimensionar suas práticas de Americanismo Musical para uma perspectiva de aproximação com os capitais simbólicos já validados por Hermann Scherchen na Europa. Desta forma, sob a ótica do funcionamento do campo da produção erudita, proposta por Pierre Bourdieu, em sua teoria da economia das trocas simbólicas, a dissertação apresenta a tentativa, por parte Lange, de intercambiar práticas de cooperação internacional, já vivenciadas no campo da música Européia, porém readequadas á rotina cultural da América Latina. The magazine Música Viva, published in 1942, included the cooperation of agents in music area from all over the Americas and was supposed like a net of cooperators inside of one international group that was connected with the emblem figure of Francisco Curt Lange and his Americanismo Musical. By the content of Lange´s correspondence with these agents during this period we may conclude one scheme of international cooperation between the professionals in music from different parts of the world, such as Hermann Scherchen from Switzerland, Hans-Joachim Koellreutter and Fransisco Mignone from Brazil, Hugo Balzo from Uruguay and Charles Seeger from the USA. The attempt of Lange to edit the magazine Música Viva was a way to resize his ploy in Americanismo Musical for the perspective approach to the symbolic capitals that were already validated by Hermann Scherchen in Europe. In this way, through the lens of actions of the intellectual production area, proposed by Pierre Bourdieu in his theory of the economics of symbolic exchanges, this dissertation represents the Lange´s initiation to exchange the practices of the international cooperation in the area of European music but readapted to cultural routine of Latin America.

description: Menschenrechte erleben seit 1948 eine zunehmende Ausbreitung. Dieser Bedeutungsgewinn der Menschenrechte wird in den aktuellen Diskursen mit der weltweit zunehmenden Selbstbeschränkung nationalstaatlicher Souveränität verknüpft. In der Sozial- und Politikwissenschaftlichen Literatur wird eine Reihe von Gründen für die Verbreitung der Menschenrechte erörtert. Dies sind zum einen eine zunehmende globalisierte Medialisierung, die eine verstärkte Ausbreitung der Menschenrechte fördert, zum anderen die Verknüpfung von ökonomischer Globalisierung mit der Globalisierung der Menschenrechte. Zusammenfassend lässt sich festhalten, dass der Bedeutungszuwachs der Menschenrechte heute in Diskursen unterschiedlicher Disziplinen mit unterschiedlicher Gewichtung diskutiert wird.

description: Phosphorus (P) is a vital nutrient for algal growth. Aside from soluble reactive P (SRP), organic P (OP) is used by algae via alkaline phosphatase (AP) hydrolysis, which can play an important role in supplying P. Enzymatically-hydrolysable OP (EHP) can potentially be used as an indicator of bioavailability of P other than SRP in natural waters. We investigated the ecological significance of alkaline phosphatase activity (APA), EHP concentration and P turnover time in the inflowing rivers of Lake Taihu (Taihu) during three hydrologic periods. Results indicated high SRP concentration and low SRP demand by algal suppressed APA in the inflowing rivers, the highest proportion of OP mineralization rate (v) to the maximum reaction velocity of AP (Vmax) is only 14.7%. P turnover time of the inflowing rivers was generally from 3 to 7 days and in exceptional cases, it could exceed 10 days. The high EHP reserve and the sufficient AP for OP mineralization render the rivers a significant source of utilizable OP, further exacerbating eutrophication of Taihu.

description: Die Jugendforschung erhält seit PISA neue Aufmerksamkeit, da die Themen Bildung, Basiskompetenzen, informelles und formelles Lernen zunehmend an Brisanz gewinnen. Es ist die Frage, wie Jugendliche das Bildungssystem bewältigen oder sich davon distanzieren, daran scheitern und/oder andere Wege suchen. Das Bildungssystem hat gegenwärtig immer noch den Widerspruch zwischen Ermöglichung und Verhinderung von Bildung durch das meritokratische System zu lösen. Schon Bourdieu hat in den 1970er Jahren die Illusion der Chancengleichheit im Bildungssystem offen gelegt. Diese Analysen haben heute noch Gültigkeit und so stellt sich weiter die Frage, wie es Jugendlichen in segregierten Milieus gelingt, ihren Weg im Bildungssystem zu finden und eine schulische Bildungsorientierung zu entwickeln. In einem ersten Schritt wendet sich der Artikel der Frage zu, wie die Lebensphase Jugend beschrieben werden kann und welche Charakteristika bedeutsam sind. Dann wird auf das Forschungsprojekt „Biographisches Lernen und freiwillige Teilnahme an Angeboten der Jugendarbeit“ eingegangen und ein Fall aus einem segregierten sozialen Milieu vorgestellt, in dem sich eine biographisch entwickelte Bildungsorientierung abzeichnet. Hierbei wird der Frage nachgegangen, wie Jugendliche eine Bildungsorientierung über biographische Lernerfahrungen entwickeln und welche Sozialisationsinstanzen von Bedeutung sind.

description: The rational eutrophication management largely depends on the knowledge of the dynamics in the dissolved inorganic nutrients especially nitrogen forms which trigger exponential primary productivity in eutrophic systems. The present study investigated the phytoplankton interactions with the dissolved N forms, nitrate (NO3) and ammonium (NH4) in a sub-tropical Yangtze River tributary, China vulnerable to multiple anthropogenic stressors following the impoundment of the largest hydraulic structure, the Three Gorges Dam. Results indicated strong NO3 inhibition by the low NH4 pool exerting toxic effects on the major phytoplankton groups, particularly the Bacilliariophyta (relative abundance < 1%) while significant Cyanophyta proliferation prevailed (relative abundance ≥ 90%). Strong N limitation exacerbated by NH4 deficit and P replete condition characterizes the summer bloom in the tributary. The biomass attenuation kinetics revealed significantly fast NH4 metabolism, half-life (t1/2= 1.4 d, K = 0.00750 ± 0.004 d−1) as the first-order rate adequately fitted into the experimental data although, the second-order rate also demonstrated considerable goodness of fit. The growth responses induced by the Si enrichment potentially suggested possible secondary limitation by Si with the likelihood of intensification should the ecosystem phytoplankton community dominance shifts from Cyanophyta to the Bacilliariophyta. The response of P enrichment on growth was attributed to luxury consumption rather than limitation as responses only became significant towards the end of the study. The study, therefore, presents the first report of biomass ageing rate worthy of incorporation into the recent bloom management protocol for the development of predictive ecosystem dynamics.

description: When the background density in a bounded plasma is modulated in time, discrete modes become coupled. Interestingly, for appropriately chosen modulations, the average plasmon energy might be made to grow in a ladder-like manner, achieving up-conversion or down-conversion of the plasmon energy. This reversible process is identified as a classical analog of the effect known as quantum ladder climbing, so that the efficiency and the rate of this process can be written immediately by analogy to a quantum particle in a box. In the limit of densely spaced spectrum, ladder climbing transforms into continuous autoresonance; plasmons may then be manipulated by chirped background modulations much like electrons are autoresonantly manipulated by chirped fields. By formulating the wave dynamics within a universal Lagrangian framework, similar ladder climbing and autoresonance effects are predicted to be achievable with general linear waves in both plasma and other media.

description: Most aquatic systems show characteristic seasonal fluctuations in the total nutrient pool supporting primary productivity. The nutrient dynamics essentially exacerbate critical demand for the counterpart micronutrients towards achieving ecosystem equilibrium. Herein, the phytoplankton demand for iron (Fe) uptake under high concentration of nitrate-nitrogen during spring in Xiangxi Bay, China, was studied. Our result confirmed that significant Fe concentrations (P = 0.01) in both autumn (0.62 ± 0.02 mgL−1) and winter (0.06 ± 0.03 mgL−1) relative to spring (0.004 ± 0.01 mgL−1) are linked to the low NO3−N paradigms during autumn and winter. As NO3−N showed a sharp increase in spring, a dramatic reduction in the Fe pool was observed in the entire tributary, driving the system to a critical Fe limited condition. Bioassay study involving Fe additions both alone and in combinations led to maximum growth stimulation with biomass as chla (16.44 ± 0.82 μgL−1) and phytoplankton cell density (6.75 × 106 cellsL−1) which differed significantly (P = 0.03) with the control. Further, the study demonstrated that Fe additions triggered biomass productions which increased linearly with cell densities. The P alone addition caused biomass production (15.26 ± 2.51 μgL−1) greater than both NO3−N (9.15 ± 0.66 μgL−1) and NH4+N (13.65 ± 1.68 μgL−1) separate additions but reported a low aggregate cell density (3.18 × 106 cellsL−1). This indicates that nutrient and taxonomic characteristics e.g., high cell pigment contents rather than just the cell bio-volume also determine biomass. The Bacilliarophyta, Chlorophyta, and Cryptophyta with the total extinction of Cyanophyta characterized the bloom in spring. The anthropogenic NO3−N input into XXB would have driven to higher NO3−N than NH4+N situation, and incapacitated the Cyanophyta that preferentially utilize NH4+N. Our study provides a useful report for incorporation into the monitoring programs for prudent management of phytoplankton bloom and pollution across the eutrophic systems.

description: The Convention for the Protection of Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms is an effective instrument for the protection of human rights not only within the territories of the High Contracting Parties. When one state affects human rights within the territory of another state it therefore may bear responsibility for occurred violations outside its own borders. The case-law of the European Court regarding extraterritorial application of the Convention continues to develop. However, thorough examination of the Court’s jurisprudence in this area it reveals a number of controversial issues and unresolved conflicts. The main focus of this study is extraterritorial violation of human rights within the territories of the Post-Soviet states, namely Moldova and Georgia. After the fall of the Soviet Union the world has witnessed self-determination claims within the former subnational republics’ territories. The Russian Federation has a tight relationship with the many Post-Soviet states, and even supports those who proclaimed their independence - Moldovan Republic of Transdniestria and Republics of South Ossetia and Abkhazia. The cases brought before the European Court against Russia for violation of human rights in Moldovan Republic of Transdniestria and South Ossetia are unique in terms of their nature and distinct from other extraterritorial cases.

description: The aim of this thesis is to shed light on the European Union’s effectiveness in promoting democracy in Egypt and in Libya before and during the Arab Spring. While the EU has long tried to promote core values of democracy in its neighbourhood, it is argued that its initiatives have had limited impact until recently. Although democratisation could have been adequately promoted through the Euro-Mediterranean Partnership (EMP) and the European Neighbourhood Policy (ENP), several internal and external factors undermined the impact and effectiveness of these frameworks. However, now that in these two states democracy has the potential to be based on strong foundations, the EU has the opportunity to be actively, effectively and substantially involved in the democratisation process. This thesis, on the one hand, points out the factors which made it impossible for the EU to convince Hosni Mubarak and Muanmar Qadhafi to proceed with democratic reforms and which rendered the EMP and the ENP ineffective. On the other hand, by presenting the EU’s responses to the Arab Spring as well as steps taken towards an effective democracy promotion, the author highlights the strengths and weaknesses of the EU’s new approach and draws conclusions on its potentials.

description: This paper focuses on the variety of Italian spoken in Bozen (South Tyrol, Italy) by Italian L1 speakers. Due to the peculiar multilingual situation of South Tyrol, Italian speakers are concentrated in the big towns of this area (e.g. Bozen), whereas the majority of Tyrolean people speak German or German dialects. Leaving apart the interaction problems between the two speaking groups, this work focuses on Italian community settled in Bozen by emphasizing the composition of their linguistic repertoire, and the differences among the districts of the town, also in terms of linguistic identity. For this purpose, the few data actually at disposal on this linguistic variety will be analyzed, in order to highlight the presence and use of Italo-Romance dialects by Italian speakers. A field work on this variety has never been carried on before, thus all previous statements were based only on aprioristic assumption (i.e. they were not data-driven). Without data of sort, scholars assumed the absence of spoken Romance dialects in the variety of Italian spoken in Bozen, basing on the belief that Italian speakers were not originally settled in this town. Arguing against those previous assumptions, this paper will show how dialects constitute a central part of Italian linguistic identity in the multilingual setting of South Tyrol, as it emerges from a collection of expressions collected in the so-called “Slang of Bozen”, and from speakers’ linguistic perceptions recorded during face-to-face interviews. The results of this study point out that a large number of dialects are used inside the family, and sometimes also for informal communication, whereas some words and expressions are more largely used as part of a we-code characteristic of the Italians of Bozen.

description: Beim Versuch einer Verortung einer außerschulischen Kinder- und Jugendbildung begegnet man immer noch der Schwierigkeit, dass die Diskussion über das, was jene ausmacht, von Beiträgen ummantelt wird, die der Frage nach ihren Prämissen - teilweise geschickt - ausweichen. Nach Ansicht des Autors muss es in der Sozialen Arbeit mit Kindern und Jugendlichen vor allem darum gehen Gelegenheiten zu eröffnen, in denen die Betroffenen in einem überschaubaren Umkreis eigener Erfahrungen überprüfen können, worin der Befreiungsgehalt der in ihren Produktionsweisen des Sozialen verwirklichten demokratischen Selbstorganisation besteht.

description: Ao longo dos últimos anos tem sido crescente a preocupação com os consumos energéticos, sendo necessário intervir de forma a reduzir os consumos e assim manter a sustentabilidade do planeta. A indústria alimentar é dos setores mais importantes, sendo os sistemas de refrigeração os seus principais consumidores de energia elétrica (EE), ocupando assim a maior parte da fatia do consumo da instalação cerca de 75% [1]. Desta forma surge o presente artigo que pretende identificar oportunidades de eficiência energética na indústria alimentar, nomeadamente, no setor das carnes. Foram estudadas duas instalações e identificadas possíveis medidas de redução dos consumos de EE.

description: In den Diskussionen um Bildung herrscht Einigkeit darüber, dass Bildung als Prozess des Subjektes nicht nur, aber auch an institutionellen Orten stattfindet und, als Auseinandersetzung mit Kultur, das Subjekt diesen Prozess mit verantwortet. Jedoch ist das diskutierte Verhältnis zwischen Bildungsinstitution und Bildungsvollzug häufig dualistisch ausgelegt. Dabei stehen im Mittelpunkt der Diskussionen vor allem die institutionellen Einwirkungsmöglichkeiten auf die Jugendlichen, aber nicht die konkreten Praktiken der jugendlichen Bildungsvollzüge in jugendpädagogischen Institutionen. Im Artikel geht es darum, einen alternativen Zugang zu skizzieren, der erstens die Institutionen als Orte begreift, an denen Bildung als gemeinschaftlicher Herstellungsprozess stattfindet, und der zweitens die Tätigkeiten der Jugendlichen als Performances rekonstruiert, in denen bildungsrelevante verbal-reflexive als auch körperlich-performative Erfahrungen gemacht werden.

description: Der Artikel unternimmt den Versuch, den Ausdruck ‚Kinder- und Jugendbildung’ mit besonderem Bezug auf die Institution Schule begrifflich zu fassen. Nach der Auseinandersetzung mit einigen Formulierungen in der Ankündigung der Tagung „Was ist Kinder- und Jugendbildung“ vom April 2010 in Siegen werden zwei Lesarten des Bildungsbegriffs vorgestellt, um Chancen und Risiken der Verwendung von ‚Bildung’ im Rahmen Sozialer Arbeit abwägen zu können. Zuletzt folgt ein Plädoyer dafür, den Begriff der Kinder- und Jugendbildung möglichst breit zu verwenden und den Diskurs zwischen Schulpädagogik und Sozialer Arbeit in Zukunft deutlich zu verstärken.

description: Disziplin und Profession der Sozialen Arbeit stehen in der gegenwärtigen Situation vor komplexen und sich verschärfenden Herausforderungen, über die die beteiligten Akteure derzeit beginnen, sich Vorstellungen zu machen oder erst eine Ahnung teilen. Neu ist, dass sich auf der Hochschulseite, das heißt bei den Fachbereichsleitungen wie bei den Praxisämtern und -referaten, die Einsicht durchsetzt, dass diese Herausforderungen nur gemeinsam bewältigt werden können.

description: The third and most recent realization of the International Celestial Reference Frame, the ICRF-3 included
 data up to 2018 from the original S/X frequencies as well as observations at K-band (24 GHz) and at X/Ka-band (8.4/32 GHz), extending the ICRF up from 8 GHz for the first time. The K-band Celestial Reference Frame (CRF) has matured greatly in recent years, allowing K-band to achieve source position precision comparable to the S/X CRF. The use of K-band is motivated by the fact that the sources are generally intrinsically more compact at higher frequencies, as well as by the factor of three improvement in interferometer resolution relative to S/X frequencies. Astrometric-imaging observations using the VLBA have been used to create sensitive, high-resolution, multi-epoch images of our sources at K-band from which we derive quantitative estimates of source strength, size, compactness, and the temporal stability of these quantities. Recent multi-epoch, quasi-simultaneous S/X and K-band astrometric-imaging observations using the VLBA, allow us to directly compare the source structure at S/X and K-band and allow us to characterize astrophysical systematics in the CRF.

description: This paper addresses the assignment of transmission and sleep time slots between interfering transmitters with the objective of minimal power consumption. In particular, we address the constructive alignment of Discontinuous Transmission (DTX) time slots under link rate constraints. Due to the complexity of the combinatorial optimization problem at hand, we resort to heuristic assignment strategies. We derive four time slot alignment solutions (sequential alignment, random alignment, p-persistent ranking and DTX alignment with memory) and identify trade-offs. One solution, DTX alignment with memory, addresses trade-offs of the other three by maintaining memory of past alignment and channel quality to buffer short term changes in channel quality. All strategies are found to exhibit similar convergence behavior, but different power consumption and retransmission probabilities. DTX alignment with memory is shown to achieve up to 40% savings in power consumption and more than 20% lower retransmission probability than the state of the art.
