Regional integration : the case of the East African community
Creators: name: Mgaya, John A
Publisher: name: Canberra, ACT : The Australian National University
Year: 1986
Subjects: subject: Africa, East Economic integration

description: Regional cooperation in the three East African countries Kenya, Tanzania and Uganda has developed over a number of years, taken several forms and had a chequered history. It was established by the British Administration in East Africa as a convenient contrivance for rationalising British hegemony in this part of Africa. When independence was won by the three countries, the institutions of East African cooperation, then known as the East African High Commission, were bequeathed to the three independent States and its name changed to East African Common Services Organisation (EACSO). The three countries tried to use EACSO as a nucleus for an East African Federation. The attempt failed in 1963. The enthusiasm for forming a federation temporarily concealed the weakness in the economic cooperation which had been inherited. After earlier attempts at federation had been frustrated, the Partner States became more concerned with economic cooperation and in correcting its weaknesses. The Kampala-Mbale Agreement of 1965 and the Treaty for East African Cooperation of 1967 were part of the effort to improve and strengthen economic cooperation instead of political unification.
(Conformal) Killing vectors in the Newman-Penrose formalism

description: This paper presents an efficient technique for finding Killing, homothetic, or even proper conformal Killing vectors in the Newman-Penrose (NP) formalism. Leaning on, and extending, results previously derived in the GHP formalism we show that the (conformal) Killing equations can be replaced by a set of equations involving the commutators of the Lie derivative with the four NP differential operators applied to the four coordinates. It is crucial that these operators refer to a preferred tetrad relative to the (conformal) Killing vectors, a notion to be defined. The equations can then be readily solved for the Lie derivative of the coordinates, i.e. for the components of the (conformal) Killing vectors. Some of these equations become trivial if some coordinates are chosen intrinsically (where possible), i.e. if they are somehow tied to the Riemann tensor and its covariant derivatives. If part of the tetrad, i.e. part of null directions and gauge, can be defined intrinsically then that part is generally preferred relative to any Killing vector. This is also true relative to a homothetic vector or a proper conformal Killing vector provided we make a further restriction on that intrinsic part of the tetrad. If because of null isotropy or gauge isotropy, where part of the tetrad cannot even in principle be defined intrinsically, the tetrad is defined only up to (usually) one null rotation parameter and/or a gauge factor, then the NP-Lie equations become slightly more involved and must be solved for the Lie derivative of the null rotation parameter and/or of the gauge factor as well. However, the general method remains the same and is still much more efficient than conventional methods. Several explicit examples are given to illustrate the method.

description: We consider finite-dimensional real vector spaces $X$ ordered by a closed cone $X_+$ with non-empty interior and study eventual nonnegativity of matrix semigroups $(e^{tA})_{t \ge 0}$ with respect to this cone.
 Our first contribution is the observation that, for general cones, one needs to distinguish between different notions of eventual nonnegativity: (i) uniform eventual nonnegativity means that $e^{tA}$ maps $X_+$ into $X_+$ for all sufficiently large times $t$; (ii) individual eventual nonnegativity means that for each $x \in X_+$ the vector $e^{tA}x$ is in $X_+$ for all $t$ larger than an $x$-dependent time $t_0$; and (iii) weak eventual nonnegativity means that for each $x \in X_+$ and each functional $x'$ in the dual cone $X'_+$ the value $\langle x', e^{tA} x \rangle$ is in $[0,\infty)$ for all $t$ larger than an $x$- and $x'$-dependent time $t_0$. Until now, only the first of these notions has been studied in the literature. We demonstrate by examples that, somewhat surprisingly for finite-dimensional spaces, all three notions are different.
 Our second contribution is to show that typical Perron-Frobenius like properties remain valid under the weakest of the above notions.
 Third, we study a strengthened form of the above mentioned concepts, namely eventual positivity. We prove that uniform, individual and weak versions of this property are - in contrast to the nonnegative case - equivalent, and that they can be characterized by spectral properties.

description: We prove the Plancherel formula for spherical Schwartz functions on a reductive symmetric space. Our starting point is an inversion formula for spherical smooth compactly supported functions. The latter formula was earlier obtained from the most continuous part of the Plancherel formula by means of a residue calculus. In the course of the present paper we also obtain new proofs of the uniform tempered estimates for normalized Eisenstein integrals and of the Maass-Selberg relations satisfied by the associated C-functions.

description: Microstrip patch antennas are used in satellite imaging systems, wireless communication equipment, military radios, GPS (Global Positioning System) and GSM (Global System for Mobile Communications) applications. Its advantages are its small size and light weight, thin structure, low power consumption, use in dual frequency applications, and patching in various geometric shapes. Developing technology has facilitated and accelerated the production of microstrip antennas. In this study, microstrip antenna design operating at 10 GHz frequency for X band applications has been made. X band is used for air traffic control, weather traffic control, vessel traffic control, defense tracking and vehicle speed detection, terrestrial communications and networking, space communications and amateur radio. HFSS program was used in antenna design. AWR program was used to find transmission line parameters. In addition, MATLAB program was used to calculate some parameters. First of all, information is given about the working principle of the antenna, the selected dielectric layer and the working frequency. Schematic drawings of the designed antenna were made from above and from the side. S11 reflection coefficient magnitude graphs are drawn below and above the operating frequency. The radiation pattern is drawn for the E-plane and H-plane at the operating frequency. 3-D (dimensional) plot of antenna gain at operating frequency is drawn. The simulations performed have shown that the designed antenna works successfully.

description: Recommending new items to existing users has remained a challenging problem due to absence of user's past preferences for these items. The user personalized non-collaborative methods based on item features can be used to address this item cold-start problem. These methods rely on similarities between the target item and user's previous preferred items. While computing similarities based on item features, these methods overlook the interactions among the features of the items and consider them independently. Modeling interactions among features can be helpful as some features, when considered together, provide a stronger signal on the relevance of an item when compared to case where features are considered independently. To address this important issue, in this work we introduce the Feature-based factorized Bilinear Similarity Model (FBSM), which learns factorized bilinear similarity model for TOP-n recommendation of new items, given the information about items preferred by users in past as well as the features of these items. We carry out extensive empirical evaluations on benchmark datasets, and we find that the proposed FBSM approach improves upon traditional non-collaborative methods in terms of recommendation performance. Moreover, the proposed approach also learns insightful interactions among item features from data, which lead to deep understanding on how these interactions contribute to personalized recommendation.

description: We describe the quantum and classical radiation by a uniformly accelerating point source in terms of the elementary processes of absorption and emission of Rindler scalar photons of the Fulling-Davies-Unruh bath observed by a co-accelerating observer.To this end we compute the emission rate by a DeWitt detector of a Minkowski scalar particle with defined transverse momentum per unit of proper time of the source and we show that it corresponds to the induced absorption or spontaneous and induced emission of Rindler photons from the thermal bath. We then take what could be called the inert limit of the DeWitt detector by considering the limit of zero gap energy. As suggested by DeWitt, we identify in this limit the detector with a classical point source and verify the consistency of our computation with the classical result. Finally, we study the behavior of the emission rate in D space-time dimensions in connection with the so called apparent statistics inversion.

description: We study the time evolution of the Boltzmann entropy of a microstate during the non-equilibrium free expansion of a one-dimensional quantum ideal gas. This quantum Boltzmann entropy, $S_B$, essentially counts the "number" of independent wavefunctions (microstates) giving rise to a specified macrostate. It generally depends on the choice of macrovariables, such as the type and amount of coarse-graining, specifying a non-equilibrium macrostate of the system, but its extensive part agrees with the thermodynamic entropy in thermal equilibrium macrostates. We examine two choices of macrovariables: the $U$-macrovariables are local observables in position space, while the $f$-macrovariables also include structure in momentum space. For the quantum gas, we use a non-classical choice of the $f$-macrovariables. For both choices, the corresponding entropies $s_B^f$ and $s_B^U$ grow and eventually saturate. As in the classical case, the growth rate of $s_B^f$ depends on the momentum coarse-graining scale. If the gas is initially at equilibrium and is then released to expand to occupy twice the initial volume, the per-particle increase in the entropy for the $f$-macrostate, $Δs_B^f$, satisfies $\log{2}\leqΔs_B^f\leq 2\log{2}$ for fermions, and $0\leqΔs_B^f\leq\log{2}$ for bosons. For the same initial conditions, the change in the entropy $Δs_B^U$ for the $U$-macrostate is greater than $Δs_B^f$ when the gas is in the quantum regime where the final stationary state is not at thermal equilibrium.

description: Patch-Match is an efficient algorithm used for structural image editing and available as a tool on popular commercial photo-editing software. The tool allows users to insert or remove objects from photos using information from similar scene content. Recently, a modified version of this algorithm was proposed as a counter-measure against Photo-Response Non-Uniformity (PRNU) based Source Camera Identification (SCI). The algorithm can provide anonymity at a great rate (97\%) and impede PRNU based SCI without the need of any other information, hence leaving no-known recourse for the PRNU-based SCI. In this paper, we propose a method to identify sources of the Patch-Match-applied images by using randomized subsets of images and the traditional PRNU based SCI methods. We evaluate the proposed method on two forensics scenarios in which an adversary makes use of the Patch-Match algorithm and distorts the PRNU noise pattern in the incriminating images he took with his camera. Our results show that it is possible to link sets of Patch-Match-applied images back to their source camera even in the presence of images that come from unknown cameras. To our best knowledge, the proposed method represents the very first counter-measure against the usage of of Patch-Match in the digital forensics literature.

The result is generalized to higher-order multicritical points, yielding exact values for all their critical exponents and exact forms for the associated scaling functions.

description: We show through non-equilibrium non-adiabatic electron-spin-lattice simulations that above a critical current in magnetic atomic wires with a narrow domain wall (DW), a couple of atomic spaces in width, the electron flow triggers violent stimulated emission of phonons and magnons with an almost complete conversion of the incident electron momentum flux into a phonon and magnon flux. Just below the critical levels of the current flow, the DW achieves maximal velocity of about $3\times 10^{4}$ m/s, entering a strongly non-adiabatic regime of DW propagation, followed by a breakdown at higher biases. Above this threshold a further increase of the current with the applied bias is impossible -- the electronic current suffers a heavy suppression and the DW stops. This poses a fundamental limit to the current densities attainable in atomic wires. At the same time it opens up an exciting way of generating the alternative quasi-particle currents, described above, once the requisite electronic-structure properties are met.

description: The leading cause of death in the world, cardiovascular disease (CVD), remains a formidable condition for researchers, clinicians and patients alike. CVD comprises a broad collection of diseases spanning the heart, the vasculature and the blood that runs through and interconnects them. Limitations in CVD therapeutic and diagnostic landscapes have generated excitement for advances in nanomedicine, a field focused on improving patient outcomes through transformative therapies, imaging agents and ex vivo diagnostics. CVD nanomedicines are fundamentally shaped by their intended clinical application, including (1) cardiac or heart-related biomaterials, which can be functionally (for example, mechanically, immunologically, electrically) improved by incorporating nanomaterials; (2) the vasculature, involving systemically injected nanotherapeutics and imaging nanodiagnostics, nano-enabled biomaterials or tissuenanoengineered solutions; and (3) improving the sensitivity and/or specificity of ex vivo diagnostic devices for patient samples. While immunotherapy has developed into a key pillar of oncology in the past dozen years, CVD immunotherapy and immunoimaging are recently emergent and likely to factor substantially in CVD management in the coming decade. The nanomaterials in CVD-related clinical trials and many promising preclinical strategies indicate that nanomedicine is on the cusp of greatly impacting patients with CVD. Here we review these recent advances, highlighting key clinical opportunities in the rapidly emerging field of CVD nanomedicine.
Rural labour force in Ethiopia

description: This study is based on males and females aged 10+ in the 1981/82 Rural Labour Force Survey. It analyzes the results of the usual and current status approach which were used in the survey. The usual status approach showed higher participation rates than the current status approach for all age groups. Unemployment and underemployment in rural Ethiopia are also examined and it is found that underemployment as measured by hours worked is more prominent than open unemployment. One reason for low open unemployment is suspected to be the conventional definition of unemployment which in most cases does not represent the rural situation and secondly open unemployment appears to be truly rare in rural Ethiopia. The levels and patterns of male and female labour force participation are discussed. Males at all ages have higher participation rates than females. The gross years of active life of males is high compared to that of females. Male participation is low in the entry ages, rises to its maximum in the prime ages and again decrease in the retirement ages. Female labour force participation exhibits the central peak pattern. The relationship between some demographic and social variables and male and female participation are discussed. Marital status affects male labour force participation, with married men having higher rates while migration does not seem to affect male participation rates. Demographic variables such as migration, marital status, and relationship with head of household have significant effect on female participation rates.

description: Nowadays, people are passionate about using the internet in their daily lives, and this has resulted in the rapidly increasing adoption and use of online forums. An online forum can be defined as a medium to share one's thoughts, feelings and emotions towards specific multimedia artefacts such as pictures, videos and paintings etc. However, the use of online forums has leads to the execution of many illegal activities such as trading of black market money online, distributing copyrighted movies, as well as using illegal words. Therefore, Law enforcement needs a system to effectively deal with this problem. An example of such system include the Network Intrusion Detection System (NIDS) that assists system administrators detect network security vulnerabilities in their organization. On the other, many challenges arise when developing a flexible and effective NIDS for unplanned and unpredictable attacks. This paper proposes a deep learning-based approach to develop a flexible and efficient NIDS to analyze suspicious and criminal activities occurring in online forums. The proposed system combined a variety of Deep learning techniques and Natural Language Processing (NLP) for suspicious keyword extraction as well as Support Vector Machine (SVM) for detection and classification of suspicious keywords. We present the performance of our approach and compare it with some previous works. The metrics to be compared include accuracy, precision, recall, and f-measure values. This research improves system performance and security compared to existing systems

description: Non-Gaussian diffusion was recently observed in gas mixtures with mass and fraction contrast [F. Nakai et al, Phys. Rev. E 107, 014605 (2023)]. The mean square displacement of a minor gas particle with a small mass is linear in time, while the displacement distribution deviates from the Gaussian distribution, which is called the Brownian yet non-Gaussian diffusion. In this work, we theoretically analyze this case where the mass contrast is sufficiently large. Major heavy particles can be interpreted as immobile obstacles, and a minor light particle behaves like a Lorentz gas particle within an intermediate time scale. Despite the similarity between the gas mixture and the conventional Lorentz gas system, the Lorentz gas description cannot fully describe the Brownian yet non-Gaussian diffusion. A successful description can be achieved through an ensemble average of the statistical quantities of the Lorentz gas over the initial speed.

description: Unlike mo et earlier writing about Canberra, this then in is concerned principally with its population.The dev3lopment of the national capital and the activities of its political masters in building or changing the physical structures which constitute the national capital are considered mainly from the point of view of the inhabitants of the city.Although their community life has inevitably been shaped by the soecial destiny of their town as a national capital,the people of Canberra are drawn from all corners of the continent and do not differ markedly from their compatriots. The assertion made . frequently,that Canberra is a city without a soul,is one of the many loose,pejorative generalisations which have been hurled at Canberra since its foundation and have induced in many Canberra people a defensive attitude towards their fellow Australians.The soul of a community could well be another name for the feeling of belonging,which reaches its full flower only when the population includes a large proportion of natives.The 1954 census,which marks the end of this work,revealed that only 20.86$ of the population was then native born.The soul existed in fact but it was still a very young soul. Conceived originally as the one concrete expression of the ideal of nationhood to emerge from the federal compact,the image of Canberra began to be distorted almost from the point of conception by the pressures of practical politics.lt war clear that there had to be a national capitaland the experience of Canada had demonstrated the dangers of selecting an existing citv for the purrose.The idea of an independent territory and a new city was copied from the Washington experience and jealousy between the nation’s two principal cities,Sydney and Melbourne,dictated a site which was remote at the time but has since proved to have real n advantages for a national capital. The task of launching a totally new city in an undeveloped wilderness was daunting,hut the 3800000 Australians who faced it in the early years of the 20th century were inspired by a combination of naivety and pride which made them in some respects,a new breed of people.Sharing membership of a British Empire which still quite literally ’rule! the waves',they were properly proud that in .just over a hundred years they had overcome the handicap of a poor start and had succeeded in imposing on a particularly intractable continent far from the centres of European civilisation, a. re sonable facsimile of the civilisation which those centres boasted.Seeing themselves as a rising new nation ready to manage its own affairs,they were prohe to boast that their new world would avoid the mistakes of the old and,when the moment came to build a capital,aspired to something in conformity with their own hazy ideas of future grandeur.

Year: 2019

description: This annually-updated Strategy describes what ELIXIR is doing to reinforce its global significance and impact. Here, the term ‘International’ means ‘beyond Europe’, with ‘Europe’ being defined as the countries of the European Research Area (ERA).

The Strategy is articulated around four main objectives: Scale-up the international user base of ELIXIR’s Services, Improve bioinformatics services by promoting global standards, data-sharing and data annotation, Expand international Membership in, and collaborations with, ELIXIR, and Reinforce recognition of ELIXIR as an infrastructure of global significance, and a trusted partner. The audience of this Strategy encompasses users of bioinformatics services, national-level bioinformatics infrastructures, and government officials in Ministries. Also targeted are international bioinformatics-related initiatives and organisations, and intergovernmental organisations. Closer to home, the Strategy aims to raise awareness, within Member countries, of ELIXIR’s global significance and guide efforts towards its implementation, in support of its long-term sustainability.

description: We present a comprehensive analysis of neutrino mass and lepton mixing in theories with $A_4$ modular symmetry, where the only flavon field is the single modulus field $τ$, and all masses and Yukawa couplings are modular forms. Similar to previous analyses, we discuss all the simplest neutrino sectors arising from both the Weinberg operator and the type I seesaw mechanism, with lepton doublets and right-handed neutrinos assumed to be triplets of $A_4$. Unlike previous analyses, we allow right-handed charged leptons to transform as all combinations of $\mathbf{1}$, $\mathbf{1}'$ and $\mathbf{1}''$ representations of $A_4$, using the simplest different modular weights to break the degeneracy, leading to ten different charged lepton Yukawa matrices, instead of the usual one. This implies ten different Weinberg models and thirty different type I seesaw models, which we analyse in detail. We find that fourteen models for both NO and IO neutrino mass ordering can accommodate the data, as compared to one in previous analyses, providing many new possibilities.

description: The electric grid is an attractive target for cyberattackers given its critical nature in society. With the increasing sophistication of cyberattacks, effective grid defense will benefit from proactively identifying vulnerabilities and attack strategies. We develop a deep reinforcement learning-based method that recognizes vulnerabilities in load frequency control, an essential process that maintains grid security and reliability. We demonstrate how our method can synthesize a variety of attacks involving false data injection and load switching, while specifying the attack and threat models - providing insight into potential attack strategies and impact. We discuss how our approach can be employed for testing electric grid vulnerabilities. Moreover our method can be employed to generate data to inform the design of defense strategies and develop attack detection methods. For this, we design and compare a (deep learning-based) supervised attack detector with an unsupervised anomaly detector to highlight the benefits of developing defense strategies based on identified attack strategies.

description: Cybaeus wilsonia Bennett spec. nov.
Figs 17–19, 23–25, 28, 31–32
 Type material.  U.S.A.: California: Holotype male.  Tulare County, Wilsonia, Kings Canyon National Park, 13.ix.1959, W.J. Gertsch & V.D. Roth (AMNH). Paratypes. Tulare. 3♀, Wilsonia, Kings Canyon National Park, 13.ix.1959, W.J. Gertsch & V.D. Roth (AMNH).
 Etymology. The specific name is a noun in apposition taken from the type locality.
 Diagnosis. The male of C. wilsonia spec. nov. is unlikely to be confused with the males of C. bilectus spec. nov. or C. bryoncavus spec. nov., the other members of the devius species group with known males. The male of C. wilsonia spec. nov. is diagnosed by the narrow elongate distal arm of the tegular apophysis (length about 2.5 times width) (Fig. 24) and the laterally projecting patellar apophysis which is about as long as the width of the patella, somewhat concave dorsally, and has about 15 peg setae scattered dorsally about the distal half (Figs 23, 28).
 The female of C. wilsonia spec. nov. is diagnosed by the form and configuration of the vulval components (Figs 18–19) and is only likely to be confused with the females of C. devius or C. echo spec. nov. Distinguishing the females of these three species is discussed under C. devius.
 Description. Tibia I ventral macrosetae 2-1p-2-1p-0. Femora very lightly banded or unbanded.
  Male:  (n=1). Embolus (Fig. 24) relatively broad and ribbon-like, about twice the thickness of the emboli in males of C. bilectus spec. nov. and C. bryoncavus spec. nov. Proximal arm of tegular apophysis (Figs 24–25, 30) simple, elongate, acuminate, basally swollen.
Measurements (n=1). CL 2.13, CW 1.68, SL 1.12, SW 1.08.
  Female:  (n=3). See note under description of C. devius. Atrium (Figs 17–18) very small, about 1/4 width of vulva. Spermathecal heads exit vulval ducts ventrally posterior to region enclosed by copulatory ducts, dorsolaterally deflected (Figs 18–19).
Measurements (n=3). CL 1.95, 2.08, 2.30; CW 1.38, 1.43, 1.63; SL 1.01, 1.07, 1.18; SW 1.00, 1.04, 1.11.

Tunable magneto-optical properties of single-layer tin diselenide: From GW approximation to large-scale tight-binding calculations

description: A parameterized tight-binding (TB) model based on the first-principles GW calculations is developed for single layer tin diselenide (SnSe$_2$) and used to study its electronic and optical properties under external magnetic field. The truncated model is derived from six maximally localized wannier orbitals on Se site, which accurately describes the quasi-particle electronic states of single layer SnSe$_2$ in a wide energy range. The quasi-particle electronic states are dominated by the hoppings between nearest wannier orbitals ($t_1$-$t_6$). Our numerical calculation shows that, due to the electron-hole asymmetry, two sets of Landau Level spectrum are obtained when a perpendicular magnetic field is applied. The Landau Level spectrum follows linear dependence on the level index and magnetic field, exhibiting properties of two-dimensional electron gas in traditional semiconductors. The optical conductivity calculation shows that the optical gap is very close to the GW value, and can be tuned by external magnetic field. Our proposed TB model can be used for further exploring the electronic, optical, and transport properties of SnSe$_2$, especially in the presence of external magnetic fields.

description: We find the exact critical temperature $T_c$ of the nearest-neighbor ferromagnetic Ising model on an `equilibrium' random graph with an arbitrary degree distribution $P(k)$. We observe an anomalous behavior of the magnetization, magnetic susceptibility and specific heat, when $P(k)$ is fat-tailed, or, loosely speaking, when the fourth moment of the distribution diverges in infinite networks. When the second moment becomes divergent, $T_c$ approaches infinity, the phase transition is of infinite order, and size effect is anomalously strong.
