description: With the use of the band structure calculations we demonstrate that previously reported [Nat. Materials {\bf 3}, 48 (2004)] experimental crystal and magnetic structures for NaMn$_7$O$_{12}$ are inconsistent with each other. The optimization of the crystal lattice allows us to predict a new crystal structure for the low temperature phase, which is qualitatively different from the one presented before. The AFM-CE type of the magnetic order stabilizes the structure with the elongated, not compressed Mn$^{3+}_B$O$_6$ octahedra, striking NaMn$_7$O$_{12}$ out of the list of the anomalous Jahn-Teller systems. The orbital correlations were shown to exist even in the cubic phase, while the charge order appears only in the low temperature distorted phase.

description: A non-perturbative approach based on the Fock decomposition of the state vector and its truncation is discussed. In order the non-perturbative renormalization procedure after truncation could eliminate infinities, it should be the sector dependent. We clarify the meaning of this procedure in a toy model. Then we demonstrate stability, relative to the increasing cutoff, of the anomalous magnetic moment found using the sector dependent renormalization scheme in Yukawa model.

description: This thesis presents a decentralized alternative to the centralized state-estimation and control technologies used in current power systems. Power systems span over vast geographical areas, and therefore require a robust and reliable communication network for centralized estimation and control. The supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) systems provide such a communication architecture and are currently employed for centralized estimation and control of power systems in a static manner. The SCADA systems operate at update rates which are not fast enough to provide appropriate estimation or control of transient or dynamic events occurring in power systems. Packet-switching based networked control system (NCS) is a faster alternative to SCADA systems, but it suffers from some other problems such as packet dropouts, random time delays and packet disordering. A stability analysis framework for NCS in power systems has been presented in the thesis considering these problems. Some other practical limitations and problems associated with real-time centralized estimation and control are computational bottlenecks, cyber threats and issues in acquiring system-wide parameters and measurements.The aforementioned problems can be solved by a decentralized methodology which only requires local parameters and measurements for estimation and control of a local unit in the system. The cumulative effect of control at all the units should be such that the global oscillations and instabilities in the power system are controlled. Such a decentralized methodology has been presented in the thesis. The method for decentralization is based on a new concept of `pseudo-inputs' in which some of the measurements are treated as inputs. Unscented Kalman filtering (UKF) is applied on the decentralized system for dynamic state estimation (DSE). An extended linear quadratic regulator (ELQR) has been proposed for the optimal control of each local unit such that the whole power system is stabilized and all the oscillations are adequately damped. ELQR requires DSE as a prerequisite. The applicability of integrated system for dynamic estimation and control has been demonstrated on a model 16-machine 68-bus benchmark system.

description: We find that the hierarchical organization of the potential energy landscape in a model supercooled liquid can be related to a change in the spatial distribution of soft normal modes. For groups of nearby minima, between which fast relaxation processes typically occur, the localization of the soft modes is very similar. The spatial distribution of soft regions changes, instead, for minima between which transitions relevant to structural relaxation occur. This may be the reason why the soft modes are able to predict spatial heterogeneities in the dynamics. Nevertheless, the very softest modes are only weakly correlated with dynamical heterogeneities, and instead show higher statistical overlap with regions in the local minima that would undergo non-affine rearrangements if subjected to a shear deformation. This feature of the supercooled liquid is reminiscent of the behavior of non-affine deformations in amorphous solids, where the very softest modes identify the {\it loci} of plastic instabilities.

A strategy for overcoming barriers to the successful implementation of lean construction in the UK

Subjects: K220 - Construction management

description: Lean construction efforts could prove to be highly rewarding for the construction industry. Although various countries gained large benefits by adopting the lean concepts, there seems to be a scarce implementation of lean in the UK construction industry over the last two decades even after the publication of the Egan report. Building upon the methodologies and conceptual frameworks used in earlier work in the UK (Common et al., 2000), the Netherlands (Johansen et al., 2002), and Germany (Johansen & Walter, 2007), this study carried out a similar survey to evaluate lean construction as practiced in the UK, and identify the barriers to its successful implementation. A theoretical framework was adopted and modified by the author to keep up with the vast developments made among the lean construction community since previous studies were carried out; and it formed the basis for a questionnaire survey. The data obtained was then subject to secondary analysis on top of quantitative and qualitative systematic evaluation. Six different classifications were established and analysed during secondary stage. This allowed trends and contrasting views to be determined, and thus more comprehensive findings to be concluded. After completing the results they were informed further by undertaking interviews with a number of professionals from the UK construction industry. It was found that the majority of the construction organisations do not yet have a holistic view of the full potentials of lean; and that there is still a significant lack of understanding of how to successfully apply lean principles to construction processes and activities. The study concluded the significant barriers to the successful implementation of lean construction in the UK; and proposed a strategy for overcoming the barriers identified

description: Through a combination of experiment and theory we establish the possibility of achieving strong tuning of Fano resonances (FRs), by allowing their usual two-path geometry to interfere with an additional, 'intruder', continuum. As the coupling strength to this intruder is varied, we predict strong modulations of the resonance line shape that, in principle at least, may exceed the amplitude of the original FR itself. For a proof-of-concept demonstration of this phenomenon, we construct a nanoscale interferometer from nonlocally coupled quantum point contacts and utilize the unique features of their density of states to realize the intruder. External control of the intruder coupling is enabled by means of an applied magnetic field, in the presence of which we demonstrate the predicted distortions of the FR. This general scheme for resonant control should be broadly applicable to a variety of wave-based systems, opening up the possibility of new applications in areas such as chemical and biological sensing and secure communications.

We discuss the conditions that the stress-energy tensors and invariant scalars be regular. On classical physical grounds, it is stressed that, conformal fluids used as cores for static or rotating solutions, are exempt from any malicious behavior in that they are finite and defined everywhere.

Modelling and animation of brittle fracture in three dimensions

Publisher: name: University of Lincoln

Subjects: I300 - Software engineering

description: This thesis describes a system for simulating fracture in brittle objects. The system combines rigid body simulation methods with a constraint-based model to animate fracturing of arbitrary polyhedral shaped objects under impact. The objects are represented as sets of masses, where pairs of adjacent masses are connected by a distance-preserving linear constraint. The movement of the objects are normally realized by unconstrained rigid body dynamics. The fracture calculations are only done at discrete collision events. In case of an impact, the forces acting on the constraints are calculated. These forces determine how and where the object will break.The problem with most of the existing fracture systems is that they only allow simulations to be done offline, either because the utilized techniques are computationally expensive or they require many small steps for accuracy. This work presents a near-real-time solution to the problem of brittle fracture and a graphical user interface to create realistic animations.

description: The onset of spiral structure in galaxies appears to occur between redshifts 1.4 and 1.8 when disks have developed a cool stellar component, rotation dominates over turbulent motions in the gas, and massive clumps become less frequent. During the transition from clumpy to spiral disks, two unusual types of spirals are found in the Hubble Ultra Deep Field that are massive, clumpy and irregular like their predecessor clumpy disks, yet spiral-like or sheared like their descendants. One type is ``woolly'' with massive clumpy arms all over the disk and is brighter than other disk galaxies at the same redshift, while another type has irregular multiple arms with high pitch angles, star formation knots and no inner symmetry like today's multiple-arm galaxies. The common types of spirals seen locally are also present in a redshift range around z~1, namely grand design with two symmetric arms, multiple arm with symmetry in the inner parts and several long, thin arms in the outer parts, and flocculent, with short, irregular and patchy arms that are mostly from star formation. Normal multiple arm galaxies are found only closer than z~0.6 in the UDF. Grand design galaxies extend furthest to z~1.8, presumably because interactions can drive a two-arm spiral in a disk that would otherwise have a more irregular structure. The difference between these types is understandable in terms of the usual stability parameters for gas and stars, and the ratio of the velocity dispersion to rotation speed.

description: Layout fracturing is a fundamental step in mask data preparation and e-beam lithography (EBL) writing. To increase EBL throughput, recently a new L-shape writing strategy is proposed, which calls for new L-shape fracturing, versus the conventional rectangular fracturing. Meanwhile, during layout fracturing, one must minimize very small/narrow features, also called slivers, due to manufacturability concern. This paper addresses this new research problem of how to perform L-shaped fracturing with sliver minimization. We propose two novel algorithms. The first one, rectangular merging (RM), starts from a set of rectangular fractures and merges them optimally to form L-shape fracturing. The second algorithm, direct L-shape fracturing (DLF), directly and effectively fractures the input layouts into L-shapes with sliver minimization. The experimental results show that our algorithms are very effective.

description: This dissertation aims to present a perspective to build more natural shared control systems for physical human-robot cooperation. As the tasks become more complex and more dynamic, many shared control schemes fail to meet the expectation of an effortless interaction that resembles human-human sensory communication. Since such systems are mainly built to improve task performance, the richness of sensory communication is of secondary concern. We suggest that effective cooperation can be achieved when the human’s and the robot’s roles within the task are dynamically updated during the execution of the task. These roles define states for the system, in which the robot’s control leads or follows the human’s actions. In such a system, a state transition can occur at certain times if the robot can determine the user’s intention for gaining/relinquishing control. Specifically, with these state transitions we assign certain roles to the human and the robot. We believe that only by employing the robot with tools to change its behavior during collaboration, we can improve the collaboration experience. We explore how human-robot cooperation in virtual and physical worlds can be improved using a force-based role-exchange mechanism. Our findings indicate that the proposed role exchange framework is beneficial in a sense that it can improve task performance and the efficiency of the partners during the task, and decrease the energy requirement of the human. Moreover, the results imply that the subjective acceptability of the proposed model is attained only when role exchanges are performed in a smooth and transparent fashion. Finally, we illustrate that adding extra sensory cues on top of a role exchange scheme is useful for improving the sense of interaction during the task, as well as making the system more comfortable and easier to use, and the task more enjoyable.

description: Computer-based, mathematical models that simulate spatially distributed and time dependent environmental processes are increasingly recognized to provide diagnostic and productive outputs for the assessments of environmental factors. Mathematical models have been utilized since 60's to study the water quality, the circulation structure and the seasonal changes of large water bodies such as the Great Lakes. Analysis of changes in water quality related to seasonal cycles such as the formation and the propagation of the thermalbar requires spatial and temporal models, with high resolution. The overall objective ofthis study was to integrate geo-referenced site-specific spatial data to a 3D hydrodynamicmodel (ALGE) and compare the outputs with geo-referenced remotely sensed thermal imagery. The motivation of this work is based on the idea that the spatial data providesa significant advantage of equipping the model with site-specific data to manipulate site-specific circulation patterns. Further, since the input is geo-referenced and site-specific,the output can be directly compared to geo-referenced remotely sensed imagery for modelvalidation. Thus, the aspect of the integration of spatial data to hydrodynamic models is anobvious and promising approach to study lake-wide hydrodynamic processors and seasonalchanges. A specific objective of the study was to examine how different spatial patternsand weather conditions influence the formation and the propagation of the thermal bartemporally and spatially. Several preliminary studies were conducted on square lakes andlakes with false bathymetric profiles, and compared with the results of laboratory studiesand field surveys. Since the outputs compared well with the literature, bathymetric dataof Lake Ontario was integrated to the 3D hydrodynamic model with real time surface andatmospheric weather data. The formation and the propagation of the thermal bar wassimulated for the years 1997, 1998, 1999 and 1997 (winter) through 1998(fall). The modelwas finetuned by changing the initial conditions and weather data to obtain a good approximation to the surface temperature derived from satellite imagery using the split and dualwindow technique. The lake was also subjected to different weather conditions to studyits influences on the formation and propagation of the thermal bar. The model outputsfrom case studies as well as comparisons of the model output with satellite imagery and theNOAA forecasting model are discussed.

description: We review the characteristics of signalling storms that have been caused by certain common apps and recently observed in cellular networks, leading to system outages. We then develop a mathematical model of a mobile user's signalling behaviour which focuses on the potential of causing such storms, and represent it by a large Markov chain. The analysis of this model allows us to determine the key parameters of mobile user device behaviour that can lead to signalling storms. We then identify the parameter values that will lead to worst case load for the network itself in the presence of such storms. This leads to explicit results regarding the manner in which individual mobile behaviour can cause overload conditions on the network and its signalling servers, and provides insight into how this may be avoided.

description: In a superconductor electrons form pairs and electric transport becomes dissipation-less at low temperatures. Recently discovered iron based superconductors have the highest superconducting transition temperature next to copper oxides. In this article, we review material aspects and physical properties of iron based superconductors. We discuss the dependence of transition temperature on the crystal structure, the interplay between antiferromagnetism and superconductivity by examining neutron scattering experiments, and the electronic properties of these compounds obtained by angle resolved photoemission spectroscopy in link with some results from scanning tunneling microscopy/spectroscopy measurements. Possible microscopic model for this class of compounds is discussed from a strong coupling point of view.

description: The Second International Workshop on Trends in Functional Programming in Education, TFPIE 2013, was held on May 13, 2013 at Brigham Young University in Provo, Utah, USA. The goal of TFPIE is to gather researchers, professors, teachers, and all professionals interested in functional programming in education. Submissions were vetted by the TFPIE 2013 program committee using prevailing academic standards. The 2 articles in this volume were selected for publication as the result of this process. Tobin-Hochstadt and Van Horn report on their solution to the difficult transition between the first semester course in functional programming (using languages, programming environment, etc. intended for teaching) to the second semester course in object-oriented programming (with a production-oriented language, environment, etc.). Finding that this confusing circumstance made the key concepts hard to grasp for students, the authors present and evaluate a new introduction to the second semester course, based on the environment and languages the students used before, that focusses on key object-oriented concepts. Caldwell lays out an education narrative that focusses on reasoning about programs, using structural induction principles. He argues that more such formal reasoning should get more emphasis in programming education and demonstrates the feasibility thereof by reporting on his experiences using this narrative in the functional programming course at the University of Wyoming.

description: La plupart des enseignants d’allemand travaillant en Romandie dans le post obligatoire l’auront ressenti au cours de leur carrière : les élèves manquent de motivation vis-à-vis de l’apprentissage de la langue de Goethe. À ce constat s’ajoute une autre réalité préoccupante : si les élèves sont motivés, cela s’inscrirait dans une perspective de réussite scolaire et d’utilité professionnelle. À partir de ce contexte, nous avons voulu comprendre pourquoi l’allemand n’enthousiasme pas ou peu les élèves, et identifier d’éventuelles pistes d’action pour améliorer l’enseignement de cette langue et, par conséquent, l’apprentissage des apprenants. Dans le cadre de ce mémoire, nous nous sommes interrogées sur les raisons motivationnelles de l’apprentissage de l’allemand en Suisse romande au secondaire II et avons tenté de vérifier l’hypothèse suivante : si les élèves romands sont motivés à l’apprentissage de l’allemand, ce serait avant tout pour des facteurs et des raisons extrinsèques. Seule une minorité des élèves sont motivés intrinsèquement. En d’autres mots, les élèves ne ressentent pas de plaisir à apprendre l’allemand. Afin de déterminer l’origine motivationnelle des élèves, nous analysons au cours de ce travail les résultats obtenus à partir d’un questionnaire distribué à 515 élèves issus du Gymnase et de l’École professionnelle de Nyon et de l’École professionnelle du Chablais à Aigle.

description: Saudi Arabia is one of earliest Arab countries to have implemented the integration of students with Special Educational Needs (SEN) (Almosa, 2008, 2010). Recently, the Ministry of Education (MoE), through the King Abdullah Public Education Development Programme, began preparing to introduce inclusion for students with SEN in practice. Thus, the current study explores potential barriers that could challenge the implementation of inclusion for male students with Learning Difficulties (LD) in mainstream primary schools. This research is timely as the issues involved with implementing inclusion remain unclear in Saudi Arabia. The issues were investigated by examining the understanding of teachers regarding the term ‘inclusion’ and exploring the factors that could challenge the implementation of inclusion from the perspective of teachers as well as through an analysis of the current practice of educating students with LD and general education students in mainstream primary schools in the Saudi context. Adopting the interpretivist paradigm, qualitative data was collected in five mainstream primary schools taken as a single case study, through interviews with thirteen teachers from a group of special education teachers and eleven teachers from a group of general education teachers. Moreover, observations of classrooms and schools and an analysis of legislative documents were used as supportive data collection methods. Thematic analysis was employed to analyse the data. The findings showed that the majority of teachers had an understanding of the term inclusion, although a few teachers indicated their lack of knowledge and understanding of this term. Moreover, teacher preparation, in-service training, competence of teachers, teachers’ views, relationships between students, relationships between parents and teachers, human support, curriculum, teaching strategies, assessment, resources, legislations, administrative matters, number of students in classroom and infrastructure were identified as factors that could act as barriers to implementing inclusion effectively.The results of the analysis led to some recommendations for future practice; these include how to support teachers’ readiness for inclusion, improve the practice of teachers in mainstream classrooms, improve the relationships between students with and without LD, the relationships between parents and schools, and improve environmental factors, in order to make inclusion work effectively. This study contributes to knowledge of inclusive education by exploring the issues surrounding the implementation of students with learning difficulties in the Saudi context.

description: Ce mémoire professionnel, dans un premier temps, raconte trois histoires d’écrivains (Camus, Pavese, Pennac) qui pendant leur jeunesse eurent une relation particulière à des enseignants et à l’Ecole. Relation positive dans deux cas (Camus et Pavese), car des Professeurs les aidèrent à obtenir une bourse d’étude ou devinrent des amis ; négative, du moins dans un premier temps, dans l’autre car l’Ecole était le lieu de l’insuccès et de la honte, et les Professeurs des ennemis. Mais les interventions de quatre « Sauveurs » à de différents moments de sa scolarité permettront à Pennac de s’en sortir et de devenir, à l’âge de 25 ans, enseignant à son tour. Ce sont donc des histoires où le talent individuel des élèves et la chance jouent un rôle important ; mais ce qui se révèlera décisif ce sont le talent, l’instinct, la préparation et les gestes professionnels des Professeurs qui les eurent en charge. Sans eux, en effet, rien de ce qui s’est passé par la suite, et que leurs lecteurs en partie connaissent, ne serait arrivé, car personne plus qu’un Professeur a le pouvoir, directement ou indirectement, de réorienter le destin d’un élève – et notamment de ceux qui ne peuvent compter, ou peu, sur leurs familles. Pour cela ce travail, après l’analyse de textes des trois écrivains, se termine par une « Anthologie des bons Professeurs » qui, sans ambitions scientifiques, recense des descriptions de Professeurs, des souvenirs d’école et des anecdotes, des techniques et des stratégies d’enseignement, pour inspirer les nouveaux enseignants et rendre hommage aux anciens et à ceux qui ne sont plus.

description: Let $\mathcal P_X$ and $\mathcal S_X$ be the partition monoid and symmetric group on an infinite set $X$. We show that $\mathcal P_X$ may be generated by $\mathcal S_X$ together with two (but no fewer) additional partitions, and we classify the pairs $α,β\in\mathcal P_X$ for which $\mathcal P_X$ is generated by $\mathcal S_X\cup\{α,β\}$. We also show that $\mathcal P_X$ may be generated by the set $\mathcal E_X$ of all idempotent partitions together with two (but no fewer) additional partitions. In fact, $\mathcal P_X$ is generated by $\mathcal E_X\cup\{α,β\}$ if and only if it is generated by $\mathcal E_X\cup\mathcal S_X\cup\{α,β\}$. We also classify the pairs $α,β\in\mathcal P_X$ for which $\mathcal P_X$ is generated by $\mathcal E_X\cup\{α,β\}$. Among other results, we show that any countable subset of $\mathcal P_X$ is contained in a $4$-generated subsemigroup of $\mathcal P_X$, and that the length function on $\mathcal P_X$ is bounded with respect to any generating set.

description: Inertial waves propagate in homogeneous rotating fluids, and constitute a challenging and simplified case study for the broader class of inertio-gravity waves, present in all geophysical and astrophysical media, and responsible for energetically costly processes as diapycnal and angular momentum mixing. However, a complete analytical description and understanding of internal waves in arbitrarily shaped enclosed domains, such as the ocean, or a planet liquid core, is still missing. In this work, the inviscid, linear inertial wave field is investigated by means of three dimensional ray tracing in spherical shell domains, having in mind possible oceanographic applications. Rays are here classically interpreted as representative of energy paths. But in contrast with previous studies, they are now launched with a non-zero initial zonal component allowing for a more realistic, localized forcing, and the development of azimuthal inhomogeneities. We find that meridional planes generally act in the shell geometry as attractors for ray trajectories. In addition, the existence of trajectories that are not subject to meridional trapping is here observed for the first time. Their dynamics was not captured by the previous purely meridional studies and unveils a new class of possible solutions for inertial motion in the spherical shell. Both observed behaviours shed some new light on possible mechanisms of energy localization, a key process that still deserves further investigation in our ocean, as well as in other stratified, rotating media.

title: Libertà e diritto in Hegel. La “Auseinandersetzung” di J. Ritter con la “Moralität” kantiana e la “Sittlichkeit” hegeliana

description: Nella visione di J. Ritter, la filosofia hegeliana viene collocata in una posizione mediana, centrale, tra restaurazione e rivoluzione. Se da un lato, infatti, la fuga romantica dalla realtà presume che il divino abbia perduto per sempre ogni potere sull'oggettività, dall'altro la rivoluzione politica dell'epoca ha messo in maniera definitiva in questione il significato stesso della tradizione metafisica e della sua verità.

description: PLACES 2013 (full title: Programming Language Approaches to Concurrency- and Communication-cEntric Software) was the sixth edition of the PLACES workshop series. After the first PLACES, which was affiliated to DisCoTec in 2008, the workshop has been part of ETAPS every year since 2009 and is now an established part of the ETAPS satellite events. This year, PLACES was the best attended workshop at ETAPS 2013. The workshop series was started in order to promote the application of novel programming language ideas to the increasingly important problem of developing software for systems in which concurrency and communication are intrinsic aspects. This includes software for multi- and many-core systems, accelerators and large-scale distributed and/or service-oriented systems. The scope of PLACES includes new programming language features, whole new programming language designs, new type systems, new semantic approaches, new program analysis techniques, and new implementation mechanisms.
Shaping social movements: international actors in Kosovo and Afghanistan

description: New protectorates, such as Iraq, Afghanistan, East Timor and Kosovo, have experienced a medium to long term international presence, which has sought to ensure security and implement liberal democracy. Given that social movement activity has been linked to democratic development, the presence and development of social movements in new protectorates presents a novel and interesting context in which to study social movements. Using a political opportunity framework as a guide, this research examines the extent to which international actors in new protectorate contexts influence the strategy of social movements. A case analysis of two entities, Vetëvendosje, a social movement and social movement organisation (SMO) in Kosovo, and Afghanistan 1400, a civil society organisation (CSO) in Afghanistan, is supported by documentary sources and a range of interviews with members, and employees of international actors and CSOs.To date, there has been little research on the wider effects of this type of international presence and the consequences for social movement activity have been largely overlooked. This study analyses the influence of international actors on two levels. The first is seen via the impact of international actors on political opportunities. The second is seen via the strategic decisions made in response to the international presence, by the case studies. Although the international presence generally increases political opportunities, the level of opportunities in Afghanistan and Kosovo is still low. Both case studies have taken the decision to participate in electoral politics alongside their existing activities in an attempt to exert a greater level of influence. The study concludes that international actors play a key role in shaping social movement strategy within new protectorates, but that this influence often occurs in unexpected and indirect ways.

description: Using a Ramsey-type setup, the lambda-doublet transition in the $J=1,\, Ω=1$ level of the $a^3Π$ state of CO was measured to be 394 064 870(10) Hz. In our molecular beam apparatus, a beam of metastable CO is prepared in a single quantum level by expanding CO into vacuum and exciting the molecules using a narrow-band UV laser system. After passing two microwave zones that are separated by 50 cm, the molecules are state-selectively deflected and detected 1 meter downstream on a position sensitive detector. In order to keep the molecules in a single $m_J^B$ level, a magnetic bias field is applied. We find the field-free transition frequency by taking the average of the $m_J^B = +1 \rightarrow m_J^B = +1$ and $m_J^B = -1 \rightarrow m_J^B = -1$ transitions, which have an almost equal but opposite Zeeman shift. The accuracy of this proof-of-principle experiment is a factor of 100 more accurate than the previous best value obtained for this transition.
Nonlinear electromagnetic response of a uniform electron gas

description: The linear electromagnetic response of a uniform electron gas to a longitudinal electric field is determined, within the self-consistent-field theory, by the linear polarizability and the Lindhard dielectric function. Using the same approach we derive analytical expressions for the second- and third-order nonlinear polarizabilities of the three-, two- and one-dimensional homogeneous electron gases with the parabolic electron energy dispersion. The results are valid both for degenerate (Fermi) and non-degenerate (Boltzmann) electron gases. A resonant enhancement of the second and third harmonics generation due to a combination of the single-particle and collective (plasma) resonances is predicted.

description: L'accostamento delle nozioni di esistenza e libertà può essere la chiave privilegiata per accedere ai crocevia teorico-pratici del pensiero di Kierkegaard. Se l'esistenza precede – nel senso che produce – l'essenza, è allora ovvio che la categoria della libertà è quella che definisce lo statuto ontologico dell'esistenza, perlomeno dell'esistenza in quanto espressione della condizione dell'uomo relativa al suo essere nel mondo.

description: Triple patterning lithography (TPL) is one of the most promising techniques in the 14nm logic node and beyond. However, traditional LELELE type TPL technology suffers from native conflict and overlapping problems. Recently LELEEC process was proposed to overcome the limitations, where the third mask is used to generate the end-cuts. In this paper we propose the first study for LELEEC layout decomposition. Conflict graphs and end-cut graphs are constructed to extract all the geometrical relationships of input layout and end-cut candidates. Based on these graphs, integer linear programming (ILP) is formulated to minimize the conflict number and the stitch number.

description: L'uomo di Marcuse è un individuo ad una dimensione. Con questo termine, divenuto celebre e assunto durante gli anni della contestazione a simbolo della condizione umana nella società capitalista e tecnologicamente avanzata, l'autore vuole indicare la limitazione, la restrizione, l'uniformità, l'appiattimento che subiscono le facoltà umane, di per sé potenzialmente molto ricche, per opera di un potere repressivo che riduce, appunto, ogni espressione, comportamento, aspirazione e idea alla unidimensionalità.
