virtual event platform

description: Abstract Initial situation 2020
 The COVID-19 pandemic not only had a dramatic impact on private and social life worldwide, it also crossed plans, processes and habits on a working level in many ways. Due to the pandemic, the Bibliothekartag (Librarians’ Day) – a major event held annually since 1900 with several thousand library members from Germany and abroad – had to be cancelled. At that time, the library community expressed the wish to find a virtual opportunity to meet and exchange ideas nevertheless. The professional association Berufsverband Information Bibliothek (BIB) and TIB – Leibniz Information Centre for Science and Technology and University Library (TIB) joined forces and initiated an experimental and deliberately purely virtual event with a pragmatic trial and error approach over three days in just six weeks in spring 2020 under the name #vBIB. Since then, the profile of the event has been sharpened and the #vBIB has been successfully continued, so that in the meantime one can speak of a series of events. Since then, the #vBIB has been held annually and will take place for the fourth time in 2023. What exactly is the #vBIB?
 Until the outbreak of the Corona pandemic in 2020, there was a lack of virtual event formats in the German library context. The #vBIB reacted to this and since then has offered a platform for the library and information community, where current topics, developments and trends around the digitality of the library and information sector can and should be taken up and discussed openly and controversially. Participation is free of charge and registration is not required. Access is deliberately kept low-threshold through the use of common video communication tools. The concept of the programme is agile, innovative, experimental and sustainable and can thus react to dynamic developments at short notice. It is oriented towards a maximum degree of participation, interactivity and diversity, and half of the programme is made up of various contributions from the community that are grouped together in thematic sessions (socalled corners) and generated by a call for participation. The other half consists of keynote speeches by representatives of mainly other professions, social life, business and politics. In this way, external impulses find their way into the library and information bubble and an inter-societal exchange is made possible. Through this knowledge transfer, the #vBIB – with its latest 500 participants – makes a contribution to a knowledge-based democratic society. Almost without exception, the contributions are recorded and made available long-term on the TIB AV-Portal – a non-commercial, freely accessible online platform of the TIB for scientific videos.

description: Excerpts from the paper: Cotton ginning, warehousing/compressing, and merchandising services are quite similar across the three areas of Arizona and California (figure 1). Production and associated services in the region tend to be concentrated in the large valleys. In contrast to the Southwest Irrigated Cotton (SWIC) region where production is widely scattered, there are only a few scattered isolated production areas mostly in the Imperial and Mid-Arizona area. High yields and uniform quality characterize production in the irrigated areas of the West. Cotton ginning facilities range from smaller and older standard gins to the modern highly automated gins. The volume of cotton handled per gin, averaging about 10,000 bales in 1974, tends to be larger in the Far West than in other regions. The capacity of gins in the region now averages about 12 bales per hour. Ginners charged about $30.00 per bale in 1975 for ginning and wrapping. In the Far West, most cotton bales are placed in open gin yards after ginning, and then moved to a warehouse by commercial truckers within two weeks. Warehouse charges for three months (including storage, receiving, compression, and shipping) averaged about $9.00 per bale in 1975. There are several cotton market outlets in the Far West, including central market firms, local merchants, salaried and commission buyers, mill buyers, line companies, and gin organizations. A California based, producer cooperative, Calcot, is the principal market outlet in the region. This firm provides nearly 60 percent of the warehouse space in the Far West, and markets about a million bales of cotton annually for its 3,700 grower members. Historically, over 70 percent of the Arizona and California cotton crop is exported, mainly through West coast ports where containers are used for most of the shipments.
An analysis of Born-Infeld determinantal gravity in Weitzenbock spacetime

description: The Born-Infeld theory of the gravitational field formulated in Weitzenbock spacetime is studied in detail. The action, constructed quadratically upon the torsion two-form, reduces to Einstein gravity in the low field limit where the Born-Infeld constant goes to infinity, and it is described by second order field equations for the vielbein field in $D$ spacetime dimensions. The equations of motion are derived, and a number of properties coming from them are discussed. In particular, we show that under fairly general circumstances, the equations of motion are those of Einstein's General Relativity plus an energy-momentum tensor of purely geometrical character. This tensor is obtained solely from the parallelization defining the spacetime structure, which is encoded in a set of D smooth, everywhere non-null, globally defined 1-forms. Spherical symmetry is studied as an example, and we comment on the emergence of the Schwarzschild geometry within this framework. Potential (regular) extensions of it are envisioned.

description: Majorana zero modes at the boundaries of topological superconductors are charge-neutral, an equal superposition of electrons and holes. This ideal situation is, however, hard to achieve in physical implementations, such as proximitised semiconducting nanowires of realistic length. In such systems Majorana overlaps are unavoidable and lead to their hybridisation into charged Bogoliubov quasiparticles of finite energy which, unlike true zero modes, are affected by electronic interactions. We here demonstrate that these interactions, particularly with bound charges in the dielectric surroundings, drastically change the non-interacting paradigm. Remarkably, interactions may completely suppress Majorana hybridisation around parity crossings, where the total charge in the nanowire changes. This effect, dubbed zero-energy pinning, stabilises Majoranas back to zero energy and charge, and leads to electronically incompressible parameter regions wherein Majoranas remain insensitive to local perturbations, despite their overlap.

description: Numerical simulations of spin glass models with continuous variables set the problem of a reliable but efficient discretization of such variables. In particular, the main question is how fast physical observables computed in the discretized model converge toward the ones of the continuous model when the number of states of the discretized model increases. We answer this question for the XY model and its discretization, the $q$-state clock model, in the mean-field setting provided by random graphs. It is found that the convergence of physical observables is exponentially fast in the number $q$ of states of the clock model, so allowing a very reliable approximation of the XY model by using a rather small number of states. Furthermore, such an exponential convergence is found to be independent from the disorder distribution used. Only at $T=0$ the convergence is slightly slower (stretched exponential). Thanks to the analytical solution to the $q$-state clock model, we compute accurate phase diagrams in the temperature versus disorder strength plane. We find that, at zero temperature, spontaneous replica symmetry breaking takes place for any amount of disorder, even an infinitesimal one. We also study the one step of replica symmetry breaking (1RSB) solution in the low-temperature spin glass phase.

description: In this work, we consider a generalization of quantum electrodynamics including Lorentz violation and torsional-gravity, in the context of general spinor fields as classified in the Lounesto scheme. Singular spinor fields will be shown to be less sensitive to the Lorentz violation, as far as couplings between the spinor bilinear covariants and torsion are regarded. In addition, we prove that flagpole spinor fields do not admit minimal coupling to the torsion. In general, mass dimension four couplings are deeply affected when singular flagpole spinors are considered, instead of the usual Dirac spinors. We also construct a mapping between spinors in the covariant framework and spinors in Lorentz symmetry breaking scenarios, showing how one may transliterate spinors of different classes between the two cases. Specific examples concerning the mapping of Dirac spinor fields in Lorentz violating scenarios into flagpole and flag-dipole spinors with full Lorentz invariance (including the cases of Weyl and Majorana spinors) are worked out.

description: Die Verbrennung in porösen inerten Medien zeichnet sich durch einen intensiven Wärmeaustausch zwischen der reagierenden Gasphase und der offenporigen Feststoffmatrix aus. Dieser Wärmeaustausch spiegelt sich sowohl in einer Wärmerezirkulation, als auch einer Auskopplung von Strahlungswärme wider; durch die Ausgestaltung des technischen Verbrennungssystems können diese Effekte ausgenutzt werden. In dieser Arbeit werden mittels Modellierung und numerischer Simulation zwei diametral entgegengesetzte Modi der vorgemischten Verbrennung in Porenbrennern im Kontext realer technischer Anwendungen untersucht. Für eine Schwachgasverbrennung wurde die vorgemischte Verbrennung stark vorgewärmter Edukte in einem ausgedehnten, volumetrischen porösen Medium mit möglichst geringer Wärmeauskopplung aus der Verbrennungszone analysiert. Es wurde aufgezeigt, wie auf Basis der ermittelten Charakteristika ein kompaktes und flexibles Brennersystem gestaltet werden kann. Für einen Strahlungsporenbrenner wurde das komplexe Wechselspiel von Phänomenen bei der Verbrennung eines konventionellen Brennstoffs in einem dünnschichtigen porösen Medium unter starker Wärmeauskopplung durch Strahlung aus der Verbrennungszone untersucht. Aus den Ergebnissen wurden Adaptionen für die Gestaltung einer optimierten Geometrie des porösen Körpers abgeleitet.

description: Though the no-cloning theorem [1] prohibits exact replication of arbitrary quantum states, there are many instances in quantum information processing and entanglement measurement in which a weaker form of cloning may be useful. Here, I provide a construction for generating an "entangled clone" for a particular but rather expansive and rich class of states. Given a stabilizer code or free fermion Hamiltonian, this construction generates an exact entangled clone of the original ground state, in the sense that the entanglement between the original and the exact copy can be tuned to be arbitrarily small but finite, or large, and the relation between the original and the copy can also be modified to some extent. For example, this work focuses on generating time-reversed copies of stabilizer codes and particle-hole transformed ground states of free fermion systems, although untransformed clones can also be generated. The protocol leverages entanglement to simulate a transformed copy of the Hamiltonian without having to physically implement it and can potentially be realized in superconducting qubits or ultracold atomic systems.

The House Gone Missing

Publisher: name: FOOTPRINT
Year: 2023

description: The digital turn in architecture seems to have displaced the house as a paradigm for architectural theory. Omitting the house, and with it, housing and dwelling as key sites for the reconstitution of the discipline, recent theorisations of the digital in architecture have almost exclusively focused on new methods of production and notions of materiality alongside profound changes to the urban and social dimensions of the built environment. The Covid-19 pandemic has unveiled the multifaceted dimensions of the impact of the new digital technologies on dwelling as private houses transformed into online workspaces. It calls for a reflection on the question of dwelling as formulated by Martin Heidegger in 1951, when he suggested that answers won’t be found in technology and quantitative approaches to the pressing housing urgency of the time, but rather in a rethinking of culture through existentialist philosophy. The question of dwelling after the digital turn leads to scrutiny of the history of the digitisation of the house and the shifting nature of domesticity, and to an exploration of involved motivations and values, oscillating between a techno-utopianism to a techno-capitalism. While the boundaries between real and virtual realms are blurred, the house and dwelling find a reconceptualisation in ecological and relational terms, thereby dissolving the house as a discrete object or entity. Privacy, autonomy, and physicality are in need of a rebalancing.

Building, on one side, upon the existing research in the domain of housing, real estate, and media, and on the other, on the performative reading of the real estate advertisements of the contemporary co-living projects, it positions this housing typology as a genuine product of the 'real-estate-media complex,' referring to the close entanglements of speculative property markets, media infrastructures, and digital technologies in commodification of housing.

description: The nuclear density dependencies of the neutron and $Σ$ and $Λ$ hyperons are important inputs in the determination of the neutron star mass as the appearance of hyperons coming from strong attractions significantly changes the stiffness of the equation of state (EOS) at iso-spin asymmetric dense nuclear matter. In-medium spectral sum rules have been analyzed for the nucleon, $Σ$, and $Λ$ hyperon to investigate their properties up to slightly above the saturation nuclear matter density by using the linear density approximation for the condensates. The construction scheme of the interpolating fields without derivatives has been reviewed and used to construct a general interpolating field for each baryon with parameters specifying the strength of independent interpolating fields. Optimal choices for the interpolating fields were obtained by requiring the sum rules to be stable against variations of the parameters and the result to be consistent with known phenomenology. The optimized result shows that Ioffe's choice is not suitable for the $Λ$ hyperon sum rules. It is found that, for the $Λ$ hyperon interpolating field, the up and down quark combined into the scalar diquark structure $u^T C γ_5 d$ should be emphasized to ensure stable sum rules. The quasi-$Σ$ and -$Λ$ hyperon energies are always found to be higher than the quasineutron energy in the region $0.5

title: Social categorisation, distraction and intergroup discrimination.
Creators: name: Kakimoto, Toshikatsu
Publisher: name: University of Kent
Year: 2023

description: This thesis reports an investigation of the phenomenon of intergroup discrimination and its underlying psychological processes, using cognitive distraction as a conceptual tool. It has been claimed theoretically that cognitive and motivational elements are both involved in intergroup discrimination. On the basis of social identity theory, it was pointed out that discrimination is based on the category differentiation process as a cognitive component and the social identity process as a motivational component. The category differentiation process is an accentuation mechanism of inter-class differences based on perceptual categorisation. The social identity process is a goal-oriented process to maintain and enhance ingroup-esteem by favourable intergroup comparison. It was further suggested that the category differentiation process is less intentional and more automatic than the social identity process. By employing this qualitative difference, it was aimed to demonstrate empirically the distinct functioning of the two hypothetical processes. Namely, because distraction is thought to obstruct intentional processes in general, it was hypothesised that the social identity process would be hindered by distraction whereas the category differentiation process would be unaffected. However, it was proposed that the above proposition holds only when group membership is salient. Three pilot studies and six "minimal group" experiments (involving 581,12-14 year olds) were conducted to examine these general propositions, using different operationalisations, measures, and procedures. In short, the hypotheses were generally supported with some modifications. For the social identity process, distraction was likely to reduce ingroup bias in point allocation, a form of intergroup discrimination in a minimal group situation. However, it was also found that the degree of distraction needs to be taken into account. Thus, it was proposed and demonstrated that noise from other intentions such as fairness and self-presentation, also interferes with the social identity process under no or weak distraction. As a result, intergroup discrimination in point allocation was strongest when moderate distraction eliminated noise from these other intentions, and weakest when strong distraction hindered the social identity process. For the category differentiation process, distraction hardly affected evaluative ratings and perceptual differentiation measured on new colour band scales. Theoretical and empirical implications are discussed.
Housing Migrant Workers

description: A flexible dwelling commonly refers to housing susceptible to modification to various functions or uses. Between the 1960s and 1970s, Architectural Design magazine published studies and prototypes of flexible architectures, such as container homes and mobile homes, as alternative options to the housing market. Temporary, mobile, modular, containerised, and prefab became synonyms of flexible. These units proliferated to fulfil housing emergencies. The ordinary concept of flexibility, including, for instance, a dwelling capable of different customisations, shifts to a more restrictive meaning, revealing the intrinsic logistic nature of the containerised housing that, rather than goods, controls and distributes human beings. Through field research, the case study is the workers’ housing in the Rotterdam-Venlo corridor, a strategic trajectory of global supply chains. The logistical organisation goes beyond the thin enclosure of productive sites, regulating the mobility of workers and the flexibility of housing. Conceived by employment agencies to provide and discipline the workforce, workers’ housing is merely driven by efficiency criteria. Disclosing contexts where migrant flows are less tangible and visible, this research’s crucial questions revolve around the relationship between flexible housing and rigorous logistic regimes, the corporates’ exploitative strategies and the bottom-up workers’ tactics.

Dwelling in the Digital Age
Creators: name: Picon, Antoine
Publisher: name: FOOTPRINT
Year: 2023

description: Dwelling appears as a complex entanglement of dreams and realities, mental representations, and concrete practices. Here the question of its evolution in the digital age is approached at three levels. Firstly, what are the changes that it brings to the concrete experience of the built environment that have accompanied the rise of digital technologies? The Covid19 pandemic has contributed to reveal some of them, but the full picture is still far from clear. Secondly, how are these changes related to this different understanding of the human that is often dubbed as a transition towards a ‘posthuman’ condition, Thirdly, the least evident to address: will these shifts lead to the emergence of new spatial organizations and programs? Central to the argument developed here is that there is a deep relation between dwelling and the constitution of human subjectivity. Dwelling in the digital age is thus inseparable from the question of the evolution of what it means to be human in our contemporary societies.

description: Out of nearly 70,000 bills introduced in the U.S. Congress from 2001 to 2015, only 2,513 were enacted. We developed a machine learning approach to forecasting the probability that any bill will become law. Starting in 2001 with the 107th Congress, we trained models on data from previous Congresses, predicted all bills in the current Congress, and repeated until the 113th Congress served as the test. For prediction we scored each sentence of a bill with a language model that embeds legislative vocabulary into a high-dimensional, semantic-laden vector space. This language representation enables our investigation into which words increase the probability of enactment for any topic. To test the relative importance of text and context, we compared the text model to a context-only model that uses variables such as whether the bill's sponsor is in the majority party. To test the effect of changes to bills after their introduction on our ability to predict their final outcome, we compared using the bill text and meta-data available at the time of introduction with using the most recent data. At the time of introduction context-only predictions outperform text-only, and with the newest data text-only outperforms context-only. Combining text and context always performs best. We conducted a global sensitivity analysis on the combined model to determine important variables predicting enactment.

description: In the midst of a new Covid-19 variant—Omega—in winter 2021, the recently rebranded tech giant Meta announced the company’s vision for the metaverse: a ‘beyond universe’ of constant connection. Only a few days later, the Swedish furniture giant IKEA shared its latest version of the project Tiny Homes: an extremely condensed and cheap micro-apartment in Tokyo's district of Shinjuku. This paper scrutinises these two events and discusses the progressive upscaling of the digital dwelling and the parallel downsizing of the physical one. It argues that beyond a deadly epidemic, Covid-19 managed to upend, overnight, not only the traditional living and working practices, but also the spaces that both determine and are determined by them. It canonised a flexible life by envisioning a new architecture of hybrid dwelling where people could shift in real-time from their tiny physical spaces into an infinite digital one. Yet, this opportunity granted by the immersive, allegedly inclusive and democratic new virtual realm hides a strangely familiar set of relations. It facilitates the establishment of a new and broader economy of continuous worldwide accumulation in which constant connectedness, creation and production construct a highly ephemeral and economised hybrid space that redefines the traditional understanding of dwelling.

Logopädische Erfassung
Verfahren

description: Die vorliegende Bachelorarbeit befasst sich mit der logopädischen Erfassung im Kindergarten. In der Praxis verläuft die Durchführung uneinheitlich und wird von Logopäd*innen unterschiedlich gehandhabt. In der Deutschschweiz besteht bisher kein einheitliches Verfahren. Die Bachelorarbeit orientiert sich daran, welche prototypischen Inhalte zur Beurteilung der Sprachkompetenz bei vier- bis sechsjährigen Kindern in der Literatur genannt werden und welche idealtypischen Erhebungsmethoden eine aussagekräftige Beurteilung über eine weiterführende Sprachdiagnostik oder einen allfälligen Therapiebedarf ermöglichen. Um diese Fragen zu beantworten, wurde im Rahmen einer Praxisforschung das Screening ERST 4-6 entwickelt und an einer kleinen Stichprobe durchgeführt. Das Screening wurde anschliessend in den Bereichen auditive Wahrnehmung und Sprachverständnis auf seine Sensitivität und Spezifität evaluiert und weist in diesen Bereichen eine hohe Wirksamkeit auf.

Personal and organizational antecedents of employees’ stress: differential analyses of the work family interplay

description: In the field of psychology as well as business and social sciences, one of the most relevant questions is how employees stay healthy. The conflict between work and family roles has been identified as a key cause for the experience of stress in existing literature of the recent decades. Therefore, work-family conflict (WFC) has gained the most research attention in contrast to other variables of the work-family interplay. Nevertheless, there are some research questions that have not been answered yet. Three of these research gaps will be closed, each by one of the three studies of this dissertation: The aim of Study I was to identify the impact of the variables of a classic occupational mental health model within the context of WFC and stress in order to identify the relevance of WFC for workplace health promotion. One of the most important mental health models is the effort-reward imbalance model. Based on a heterogeneous sample of 627 employees, results confirm overcommitment as a crucial predictor for internal WFC and irritation. Additionally, in contrast to classic stressors internal WFC was a strong predictor for employees’ stress. In Study II, data of 508 employees with informal family caregiving responsibilities of one organization were studied. Results showed that work-family culture was an important resource for reducing WFC and that health-related self-efficacy was a beneficial resource in reducing irritation. Furthermore, reciprocal effects between internal and external WFC and irritation were found. Within Study III, the personal resource resilience, which is the psychological resistance that enables people to develop even under bad circumstances, was investigated as a predictor of both WFC and balance, and a physiological predictor of stress. Participants of the study were 35 employed parents with children up to the age of six. Salivary cortisol was collected at three points on one day. Results showed that internal as well as external WFCs were related to the mean cortisol level and that resilience had a beneficial influence on the mean cortisol level. Moreover, resilience was also advantageous for the experience of work-family balance. In sum, this dissertation highlights the importance of relevant but commonly seldom investigated key aspects of the relationship between work-family interplay and stress such as overcommitment, work-family culture, health-related self-efficacy and resilience. Thereby, significant starting points for theory- and evidence-based workplace health promotion were identified.
Rethinking Autonomous and Robotic Systems in Residential Architecture

description: Informed by twenty years of hands-on experimentation with autonomous and robotic systems in home prototypes at [REDACTED], this study provides insight into the motivations and values of integrating computing technologies in residential architecture. Although optimising home adaptability for energy efficiency, ergonomics, and climate control is shown to have clear benefits, applications intended to influence human behaviour remain questionable. The features of three home prototypes are presented to supply evidence for this claim: a Connected Sustainable Home, which is a prototype on connected sustainability; the PlaceLab, a living laboratory for studying health-related home systems; and the CityHome, a series of robotically-transformable apartment prototypes. The case studies are of distinct scales, aim at heterogeneous objectives, and were implemented at different times. They are thematically linked through digital home automation. Evaluating these three prototypes enables the determination of design criteria for integrating autonomous and robotic systems in residential architecture and provokes reflection on the impact of autonomous systems on the practice of Architecture.

Generalized $λ$-deformations of AdS_p x S^p

description: We study analytical properties of the generalized $λ$-deformation, which modifies string theories while preserving integrability, and construct the explicit backgrounds corresponding to AdS_p x S^p, including the Ramond-Ramond fluxes. For an arbitrary coset, we find the general form of the R-matrix underlying the deformation, and prove that the dilaton is not modified by the deformation, while the frames are multiplied by a constant matrix. Our explicit solutions describe families of integrable string theories depending on several continuous parameters.

A characterization of $L_{2}$ mixing and hypercontractivity via hitting times and maximal inequalities

description: There are several works characterizing the total-variation mixing time of a reversible Markov chain in term of natural probabilistic concepts such as stopping times and hitting times. In contrast, there is no known analog for the $L_{2}$ mixing time, $τ_{2}$ (while there are sophisticated analytic tools to bound $ τ_2$, in general they do not determine $τ_2$ up to a constant factor and they lack a probabilistic interpretation). In this work we show that $τ_2$ can be characterized up to a constant factor using hitting times distributions. We also derive a new extremal characterization of the Log-Sobolev constant, $c_{\mathrm{LS}}$, as a weighted version of the spectral gap. This characterization yields a probabilistic interpretation of $c_{\mathrm{LS}}$ in terms of a hitting time version of hypercontractivity. As applications of our results, we show that (1) for every reversible Markov chain, $τ_2$ is robust under addition of self-loops with bounded weights, and (2) for weighted nearest neighbor random walks on trees, $τ_2 $ is robust under bounded perturbations of the edge weights.

The Digitalisation of Swedish Housing

Publisher: name: FOOTPRINT

description: So called ‘smart’ built environments operate in a peculiar temporal nexus: they are simultaneously just around the corner, already here, and yesterday’s news. This is usually put down to hype and hyperbole, but it may well be argued that smart built environments do indeed exist across temporal dimensions – only not in the way we imagine them to. Instead of speaking of a digital turn in housing, we would be better served by employing the plural: digital turns. In fact, once we begin to unravel the history of how the idea of what we today call smart technology has been implemented in multi-household rental dwellings since the early 1980s, a pattern emerges. The article charts how landlords and others have placed smart devices that monitor, encourage or discipline tenants to behave in certain ways. This is a parallel story to the dream of a leisure-centred technology-enabled house of the future. This parallel story is darker and centres on the transformation of the dwelling through its digitalisation.
