description: Design patterns are a format for capturing and sharing design knowledge. In this paper, we look at a new domain for design patterns, namely ubiquitous computing. The overall goal of this work is to aid practice by speeding up the diffusion of new interaction techniques and evaluation results from researchers, presenting the information in a form more usable to practicing designers. Towards this end, we have developed an initial and emerging pattern language for ubiquitous computing, consisting of 45 pre-patterns describing application genres, physical-virtual spaces, interaction and systems techniques for managing privacy, and techniques for fluid interactions. We evaluated the effectiveness of our pre-patterns with 16 pairs of designers in helping them design location-enhanced applications. We observed that our pre-patterns helped new and experienced designers unfamiliar with ubiquitous computing in generating and communicating ideas, and in avoiding design problems early in the design process.

description: The use of educational games for pedagogical practice can provide new conceptions of teaching-learning in an interactive environment stimulating the acquisition of new knowledge. The so-called serious games are focused on the goal of transmitting educational content or training to the user. In the context of entrepreneurship, serious games appear to have greater importance due to the multidisciplinary of the knowledge needed. Therefore, we propose the adoption of the Entrexplorer game in the context of a university classroom. The game is a cloud-based serious game about the theme of entrepreneurship where users can access learning contents that will assist them in the acquisition of entrepreneurial skills. The organization of the game in eight levels with six additional floors let students learn the different dimensions of an entrepreneurship project while progressing during the gameplay.

description: Carsharing is a model of renting vehicles for short periods of time, where the payment is made according to the time and distance effectively traveled. Carsharing offers a simple, economical and smart alternative to urban mobility, that is already being adopted in the major cities in the world. The proposed methodology consisted in the development of a decision support system that simplifies the process of choosing carsharing services. Adopting the AHP method, the user can indicate their preferences in the choice of vehicles, and the system returns an ordered list of the most suitable available vehicles based on their geographic location. The findings of the project indicate that the use of this system encourage and simplify the use of carsharing services, which will allow to enhance the financial, mobility and environment advantages inherent to their use.

description: Adaptive optics laser guide star systems perform atmospheric correction of stellar wavefronts in two parts: stellar tip-tilt and high-spatial-order laser-correction. The requirement of a sufficiently bright guide star in the field-of-view to correct tip-tilt limits sky coverage. Here we show an improvement to effective seeing without the need for nearby bright stars, enabling full sky coverage by performing only laser-assisted wavefront correction. We used Robo-AO, the first robotic AO system, to comprehensively demonstrate this laser-only correction. We analyze observations from four years of efficient robotic operation covering 15,000 targets and 42,000 observations, each realizing different seeing conditions. Using an autoguider (or a post-processing software equivalent) and the laser to improve effective seeing independent of the brightness of a target, Robo-AO observations show a 39+/-19% improvement to effective FWHM, without any tip-tilt correction. We also demonstrate that 50% encircled-energy performance without tip-tilt correction remains comparable to diffraction-limited, standard Robo-AO performance. Faint-target science programs primarily limited by 50% encircled-energy (e.g. those employing integral field spectrographs placed behind the AO system) may see significant benefits to sky coverage from employing laser-only AO.

Development and Evaluation of a Model of Programming Errors

Publisher: name: Carnegie Mellon University

Subjects: Applied Computer Science

description: Models of programming and debugging suggest many causes of errors, and many classifications of error types exist. Yet, there has been no attempt to link causes of errors to these classifications, nor is there a common vocabulary for reasoning about such causal links. This makes it difficult to compare the abilities of programming styles, languages, and environments to prevent errors. To address this issue, this paper presents a model of programming errors based on past studies of errors. The model was evaluated with two observational of Alice, an event-based programming system, revealing that most errors were due to attentional and strategic problems in implementing algorithms, language constructs, and uses of libraries. In general, the model can support theoretical, design, and educational programming research.

description: There is a computer decision support system (CDSS) for urbanization of the northern part of the Volga-Akhtuba floodplain. This system includes subsystems of cognitive and game-theoretic analysis, geoinformation and hydrodynamic simulations. The paper presents the cognitive graph, two-level and three-level models of hierarchical games for the cases of uncontrolled and controlled development of the problem situation. We described the quantitative analysis of the effects of different strategies for the spatial distribution of the urbanized territories. For this reason we conducted the territory zoning according to the level of negative consequences of urbanization for various agents. In addition, we found an analytical solution for games with the linear dependence of the average flooded area on the urbanized area. We numerically computed a game equilibrium for dependences derived from the imitational geoinformation and hydrodynamic modeling of flooding. As the result, we showed that the transition to the three-level management system and the implementation of an optimal urbanization strategy minimize its negative consequences.

description: The development of functional composite nanomaterials based on graphene and metal nanoparticles (NPs) is currently the subject of intense research interest. In this study we report the preparation of novel type of graphene/Sn and graphene/SnOx (1 < x < 2) hybrid nanostructures and their investigation by scanning probe methods. First, we prepare Sn NPs by evaporating 7 - 8 nm tin on highly oriented pyrolytic graphite substrates. Graphene/Sn nanostructures are obtained by transferring graphene on top of the tin NPs immediately after evaporation. We show by scanning tunnelling microscopy (STM) and spectroscopy (STS) that tin NPs reduce significantly the environmental p-type doping of graphene. Furthermore, we demonstrate by low-temperature STM and STS measurements that superconductivity is induced in graphene, either directly supported by Sn NPs or suspended between them. Additionally, we prepare SnOx NPs by annealing the evaporated tin at 500 ${^o}$C. STS measurements performed on hybrid graphene/SnOx nanostructures reveal the electronic band gap of SnOx NPs. The results can open new avenues for the fabrication of novel hybrid superconducting nanomaterials with designed structures and morphologies.

description: Citizenship, space, boundaries. The nature of modernity Overturning the Henri Lefebvre’s scheme, that still enliven a lot the geographic, sociologic and political thought in the Anglo-Saxon Countries, what it is meant here is that the space produces the society, not the vice versa. The reasoning concerns the genealogy of the modern space, of which the originating genesis is retraced, the origin of the centralized territorial Modern State and the meaning of the concept of citizenship. Citoyenneté, espace, frontières. La nature de la modernité En retournant le schéma d’Henri Lefebvre, qu’encore anime beaucoup la réflexion géographique, sociologique et politique dans les Pays Anglo-Saxonnes, ce qu’il est ici soutenu est que c’est l’espace à produire la société et pas le contraire. L’argumentation concerne la généalogie de l’espace moderne, dont la genèse originaire est reconstruite, celle de l’État Moderne territorial centralisé et le sens du concept de citoyenneté.

La prudenza geografica: mappe carte, governi

Publisher: name: Semestrale di studi e ricerche di geografia
Year: 2019

description: Geographic caution: maps, papers, governments Translating space into geometrical shapes, or drawing maps, is the way umanity designs its surrounding territory. These forms are determined by a sum of knowledge and hypothesis, of what has been already conquered and what is yet to conquer, by alternating fear and curiosity. This is the process that controls the geographic image of our world. Behind this process is a geography of the mind, that translates these approximations into certainty. The essay will analyze the relation between the sense of familiarity with the world and the evolution that forms of life have undergone with Modern anthropocentrism. Furthermore, it will cover the forms of organization and regulation of spaces produced by Capitalism. The crisis of cartographic reason is not only determined by sheer technical progress, but mostly by the fall of the mythology that tied map and territory together. Starting from the history of administrative circumscriptions in Italy, as presented by the book “Orizzonti di cittadinanza”, this article will focus on the implications of circumscriptions and subdivisions of territory, using the values of life as a community and citizenship as guidelines. La prudence géographique : plans, cartes géographiques, gouvernements C’est en traduisant l’espace par des figures géométriques, en dessinant des cartes géographiques et des plans que l’homme, dans l’alternance de sentiment de peur et de curiosité, façonne l’espace, et détermine son ordre à partir du connu à l’inconnu, du dominé au dominable. C’est dans ce contexte qu’émerge l’image géographique du monde derrière laquelle évolue une « géographie de l’esprit » dont la fonction est de transformer en certitude cette traduction. Cet essai analyse le lien entre le sentiment de familiarité avec le monde et les formes de l’habiter dans la transformation que ce lien acquiert à l’intérieur de l’anthropocentrisme moderne, en arrivant jusqu’aux formes capitalistes d’organisation et codification des espaces. La «crise de la raison cartographique» ne dépend pas seulement de l’introduction d’instruments qui permettent une représentation plus précise du monde, elle est aussi et surtout la conséquence de la disparition de la mythologie qui avait jusque-là soutenu l’identification entre carte géographique et territoire. Sur la base de l’histoire des circonscriptions administratives de l’Italie après l’unification contenue dans l’oeuvre «Orizzonti di cittadinanza» – à partir duquel on commence – cette réflexion est centrée sur le sens que revêt l’articulation des circonscriptions et la conception du territoire à partir des valeurs qui dans le temps ont inspiré les images de l’habiter: vivre-en-commun et citoyenneté.

description: In designing and optimizing new-generation nanomaterials and related quantum devices, dissipation versus decoherence phenomena are often accounted for via local scattering models, such as relaxation-time and Boltzmann-like schemes. Here we show that the use of such local scattering approaches within the Wigner-function formalism may lead to unphysical results, namely anomalous suppression of intersubband relaxation, incorrect thermalization dynamics, and violation of probability-density positivity. Furthermore, we propose a quantum-mechanical generalization of relaxation-time and Boltzmann-like models, resulting in nonlocal scattering superoperators that enable one to overcome such limitations.

description: Over the past decade, educational technology (EdTech) has become an integral part of schooling and continues to evolve. With these rapid advances, many educators and designers are wondering how to shape a reflexive use of EdTech in the classroom. The EdTechReflector, with its five key questions, helps you explore the educational properties of EdTech in its various forms, such as learning software and apps. The goal of the EdTechReflector is not to judge EdTech products as 'suitable' or 'unsuitable' for teaching and learning in general. Rather, it aims to help you think about the purposes for which the design of a particular EdTech product may be more or less suitable.

description: Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) is the most common mental health disorder and remains a leading cause of disability and lost productivity with huge costs for society. MDD has high rates of relapse and recurrence, and it has strong correlations with feelings of low social support and disrupted sleep. However, MDD is also commonly misdiagnosed by primary care providers, which leads to delayed treatment and unnecessary suffering. Changes in technology now make it possible to cheaply and effectively monitor social and sleep behaviors, offering the potential of early detection of the onset of MDD. We report on the design of Big Black Dog, a smartphone-based system for gathering data about social and sleep behaviors. We also report on the results of a pilot evaluation to understand the feasibility of gathering and using data from smartphones for inferring the onset of depression.

description: Boson lattices are theoretically well described by the Hubbard model. The basic model and its variants can be effectively simulated using Monte Carlo techniques. We describe two newly developed approaches, the Stochastic Series Expansion (SSE) with directed loop updates and continuous--time Diffusion Monte Carlo (CTDMC). SSE is a formulation of the finite temperature partition function as a stochastic sampling over product terms. Directed loops is a general framework to implement this stochastic sampling in a non--local fashion while maintaining detailed balance. CTDMC is well suited to finding exact ground--state properties, applicable to any lattice model not suffering from the sign problem; for a lattice model the evolution of the wave function can be performed in continuous time without any time discretization error. Both the directed loop algorithm and the CTDMC are important recent advances in development of computational methods. Here we present results for a Hubbard model for anti--ferromagnetic spin--1 bosons in one dimensions, and show evidence for a dimerized ground state in the lowest Mott lobe.

description: Objective: A model is presented to evaluate the viability of using electrical impedance tomography (EIT) with a nerve cuff to record neural activity in peripheral nerves. Approach: Established modelling approaches in neural-EIT are expanded on to be used, for the first time, on myelinated fibres which are abundant in mammalian peripheral nerves and transmit motor commands. Main results: Fibre impedance models indicate activity in unmyelinated fibres can be screened out using operating frequencies above 100 Hz. At 1 kHz and 10 mm electrode spacing, impedance magnitude of inactive intra-fascicle tissue and the fraction changes during neural activity are estimated to be 1,142 Ω.cm and -8.8x10-4, respectively, with a transverse current, and 328 Ω.cm & -0.30, respectively with a longitudinal current. We show that a novel EIT drive and measurement electrode pattern which utilises longitudinal current and longitudinal differential boundary voltage measurements could distinguish activity in different fascicles of a three-fascicle mammalian nerve using pseudo-experimental data synthesised to replicate real operating conditions. Significance: The results of this study provide an estimate of the transient change in impedance of intra-fascicle tissue during neural activity in mammalian nerve, and present a viable EIT electrode pattern, both of which are critical steps towards implementing EIT in a nerve cuff for neural prosthetics interfaces.

description: The public administration between borders to be redesigned and barriers to be broke down Limits and weaknesses of public administrations are visible to everyone. Those are, partially, the problems and the critical issues, which are ancient and historicized, for this reason any reform must start, first of all, not only from present days analysis, but also from the past. However, it is important to raise the reflection regarding the innovation of the public administration in a collective form, promoting a comparison between different disciplines. As a matter of fact, until today, it has not been possible to study administrations in a multidisciplinary way, or it has only been possible partially, so it is by far more important to show how different cultures, not only legal, but also scientific, social, territorial, anthropological or economic, can enhance the role of the institutions. This contribution will analyze some of the “illnesses” of the public administration and will be delineated some possible solutions, either from the scientific point of view or from the construction of models and tools to innovate the public sector, through an open and multidisciplinary approach. L’administration publique entre frontières à redessiner et barrières à abattre Les limites et les faiblesses des administrations publiques sont visibles à tous. Il s’agit en partie de problèmes et des enjeux critiques au long de l’histoire et c’est pour cela que toute solution de réforme ne peut plus ne pas en tenir compte et commencer par une analyse de l’administration publique d’hier ainsi que d’aujourd’hui. Cependant, il est important de mener une réflexion concernant l’innovation de l’administration publique de façon collective, en sollicitant la comparaison entre des différentes disciplines. En fait, jusqu’à aujourd’hui, les administrations n’ont pas pu être étudiées de manière pluridisciplinaire ou bien cela a été possible que partiellement ; c’est donc important de montrer comment des différentes cultures, non seulement juridiques, mais aussi scientifiques, sociales, territoriales, anthropologiques ou économiques, peuvent renforcer le rôle des institutions. Cette contribution analysera quelques-uns des « maux » de l’administration publique et nous nous interrogerons sur les pistes possibles, tant du point de vue scientifique que de la construction de modèles d’application et d’outils concrets, pour innover le secteur public, à travers une approche ouverte et multidisciplinaire.

description: We present a new analysis of the rapidly oscillating Ap (roAp) star, 2MASS J$19400781-4420093$ (J1940; $V=13.1$). The star was discovered using SuperWASP broadband photometry to have a frequency of 176.39 d$^{-1}$ (2041.55 $μ$Hz; $P = 8.2$ min; Holdsworth et al. 2014a) and is shown here to have a peak-to-peak amplitude of 34 mmag. J1940 has been observed during three seasons at the South African Astronomical Observatory, and has been the target of a Whole Earth Telescope campaign. The observations reveal that J1940 pulsates in a distorted quadrupole mode with unusual pulsational phase variations. A higher signal-to-noise ratio spectrum has been obtained since J1940's first announcement, which allows us to classify the star as A7 Vp Eu(Cr). The observing campaigns presented here reveal no pulsations other than the initially detected frequency. We model the pulsation in J1940 and conclude that the pulsation is distorted by a magnetic field of strength $1.5$ kG. A difference in the times of rotational maximum light and pulsation maximum suggests a significant offset between the spots and pulsation axis, as can be seen in roAp stars.

description: This paper addresses the design of socially centered tools to support Arts and Humanities PhD students in their Inquiries. We discuss the limitations of current products and describe our research of PhD students. Drawing on the work of the philosopher John Dewey, we find that inquiry is a characteristic activity of the members of an academic field. Inquiry as a shared human endeavor has aesthetic qualities that direct students. These aesthetic qualities manifest in social interaction and the material products of inquiry. We suggest that the fractured experiences associated with current inquiry-supporting tools can be avoided by designing from an understanding of the underlying aesthetics of inquiry. A product concept designed from this perspective is presented.

description: The paper concerns the nanopowder high-speed, $10^4$ - $10^9$ s${}^{-1}$, compaction processes modeling by a two-dimensional granular dynamics method. Nanoparticles interaction, in addition to known contact laws, included dispersive attraction, formation of a strong interparticle bonding (powder agglomeration) as well as the forces caused by viscous stresses in the contact region. For different densification rates, the "pressure vs. density" curves (densification curves) were calculated. Relaxation of the stresses after the compression stage was analyzed as well. The densification curves analysis allowed us to suggest the dependence of compaction pressure as a function of strain rate. It was found that in contrast to the plastic flow of metals, where the yield strength is proportional to the logarithm of the strain rate, the power-law dependence of applied pressure on the strain rate as $p\propto v^{1/4}$ was established for the modeled nanosized powders.

Nonlinear (4, 8, 4) Multiplet of N=8, d=1 Supersymmetry
Creators: name: Ivanov, Evgeny

Year: 2006
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Theory (hep-th)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We construct a nonlinear version of the d=1 off-shell N=8 multiplet (4,8,4), proceeding from a nonlinear realization of the superconformal group OSp(4*|4) in the N=8, d=1 analytic bi-harmonic superspace. The new multiplet is described by a double-charged analytic superfield q^{1,1} subjected to some nonlinear harmonic constraints which are covariant under the OSp(4*|4) transformations. Together with the analytic superspace coordinates, q^{1,1} parametrizes an analytic coset manifold of OSp(4*|4) and so is a Goldstone superfield. In any q^{1,1} action the superconformal symmetry is broken, while N=8, d=1 Poincaré supersymmetry can still be preserved. We construct the most general class of such supersymmetric actions and find the general expression for the bosonic target metric in terms of the original analytic Lagrangian superfield density which is thus the target geometry prepotential. It also completely specifies the scalar potential. The metric is conformally flat and, in the SO(4) invariant case, is a deformation of the metric of a four-sphere S^4.

Cittadinanza amministrativa e cittadinanza politica tra Sette e Novecento. In margine a un volume recente

description: Administrative citizenship and political citizenship between Eighteenth and Nineteenth centuries. In the margin to a volume recent Taking inspiration from the examination of the essays collected in the recently published volume Orizzonti di cittadinanza. Per una storia delle circoscrizioni amministrative dell’Italia unita, the article reconstructs some features of modern European statehood at the turning point between the late Eighteenth and early Nineteenth centuries. A particular attention is given to the role played by the public administration in the construction of a territory conceived as an exclusive space of the state jurisdiction and consequently organized on the ground of a system of circumscriptions functional to the agency of central governments. This system established itself through the partial dismantling of the previous ways of organizing the space produced by the territorial peripheries. However, in the Nineteenth and Twentieth centuries – in harmony with the evolution of the state in a liberal and democratic sense – a new dialectic between state and local subjects about administrative circumscriptions was developed, and it is still in progress. In this sense, the history of administrative circumscriptions appears to be a sort of open-ended story. Citoyenneté administrative et citoyenneté politique entre le Dix-huitième et Dix-neuvième siècle. En marge à un volume récent En s’inspirant de l’analyse des essayes collectés dans l’ouvrage Orizzonti di cittadinanza. Per una storia delle circoscrizioni amministrative dell’Italia unita, récemment paru, l’article retrace certains aspects du statut de l’État européen au tournant entre le Dix-huitième e le Dix-neuvième siècle. Une attention particulière concerne le rôle joué par l’administration publique dans la construction d’un territoire conçu comme un espace exclusif de la juridiction de l’État et, par conséquence, organisé sur la base d’un système de circonscriptions fonctionnel à l’action du gouvernement central. Ce système s’établit à travers le partiel démantèlement des modes précédents d’organisation de l’espace, produits par les périphéries territoriales. Cependant, au cours du Dix-neuvième et du Vingtième siècle – en harmonie avec l’évolution de l’État en sens libéral et démocratique – une nouvelle dialectique entre l’État et les sujets locaux, par rapport aux circonscriptions administratives, se développe et est toujours en cours. Dans ce sens, l’histoire des circonscriptions administratives semble être une sorte d’histoire du final toujours ouvert.

description: We constrain the mass-to-light ratios, gas mass fractions, baryon mass fractions and the ratios of total to luminous mass for a sample of eight nearby relaxed galaxy groups and clusters: A262, A426, A478, A1795, A2052, A2063, A2199 and MKW4s. We use ASCA spatially resolved spectroscopic X-ray observations and ROSAT PSPC images to constrain the total and gas masses of these clusters. To measure cluster luminosities we use galaxy catalogs resulting from the digitization and automated processing of the second generation Palomar Sky Survey plates calibrated with CCD images in the Gunn-Thuan g, r, and i bands. Under the assumption of hydrostatic equilibrium and spherical symmetry, we can measure the total masses of clusters from their intra-cluster gas temperature and density profiles. Spatially resolved ASCA spectra show that the gas temperature decreases with increasing distance from the center. By comparison, the assumption that the gas is isothermal results in an underestimate of the total mass at small radii, and an overestimate at large cluster radii. We have obtained luminosity functions for all clusters in our sample. After correcting for background and foreground galaxies, we estimate the total cluster luminosity using Schechter function fits to the galaxy catalogs. In the three lowest redshift clusters where we can sample to fainter absolute magnitudes, we have detected a flattening of the luminosity function at intermediate magnitudes and a rise at the faint end. These clusters were fit with a sum of two Schechter functions. The remaining clusters were well fit with a single Schechter function.

Il multilevel all’italiana

description: Italian-style multilevel governance The Italian unification process confirms the layout of administrative districts dictated, at the beginning of the 19th century, in the French context. The reasons of this status quo, which are confirmed in all the subsequent periods of the Italian history, are also functional to social and political balances. In this sense, the regionalization does not represent a significant change. Extending the framework to the European Union or rather to the changes that it suggests or it induces, emphasizes the need for an instrument, such as a historical atlas of Italian administrative districts. La governance multi-niveau à l’italienne Le processus d’unification italienne confirme la configuration des circonscriptions administratives dictées, au début du XIXe siècle, dans le contexte français. Les raisons de ce statu quo, qui sont confirmées dans tous les successives périodes de l’histoire italienne, sont également fonctionnelles aux équilibres sociaux et politiques. En ce sens, la régionalisation ne représente pas un changement significatif. L’extension du cadre à l’Union européenne ou, plutôt, aux changements qu’elle suggère ou induit, souligne la nécessité d’un instrument, tel qu’un atlas historique des districts administratifs italiens.
