description: When architecting a software system, software engineers search for architectural solutions (e.g. technologies), which fulfill certain requirements. Current approaches for architecture knowledge repositories facilitate learning about different architectural solutions. Nevertheless, the rapid and continuous increase of solution alternatives makes it challenging to manually acquire architecture knowledge and to ensure that this knowledge is up to date. Our goal in this paper is to improve how software engineers search for architecturally relevant information in online developer communities. We developed a new search approach for architecturally relevant information using Stack Overflow as an example of an online developer community. Our search approach differs from a conventional keyword-based search in that it considers semantic information of architecturally relevant concepts in Stack Overflow. We implemented the search approach as a web-based search engine. To show the effectiveness of the search approach compared to a conventional keyword-based search, we conducted an experiment with 16 practitioners. To ensure realism of the experiment, tasks given to practitioners are based on real scenarios identified in a separate interview study. The experiment showed that the new search approach significantly outperforms a conventional keyword-based search. The full paper of this extended Abstract has been published in [So18].

description: A nearlattice is a join semilattice such that every principal filter is a lattice with respect to the induced order. Hickman and later Chajda et al independently showed that nearlattices can be treated as varieties of algebras with a ternary operation satisfying certain axioms. Our main result is that the variety of nearlattices is 2-based, and we exhibit an explicit axiom system of two independent identities. We also show that the original axiom systems of Hickman and of Chajda et al are, respectively, dependent.

description: We report about a recently developed “Formal Framework for Incremental Model Slicing”, published in [Ta18]. A model slice of a model is a submodel comprising a selected model part, called slicing criterion. In addition to classical use cases from the field of program understanding, model slicing is also motivated by specifying submodels of interest to be further processed more efficiently. Since slicing criteria are often modified during software development tasks, such slices often need to be updated. A slice update can be performed by creating the new slice from scratch or by incrementally updating the existing slice. We present a formal framework for defining model slicers that support incremental slice updates. This framework abstracts from the behavior of concrete slicers as well as from the concrete model modification approach. Incremental slice updates are shown to be equivalent to non-incremental ones. Furthermore, we present a framework instantiation based on the concept of edit scripts defining application sequences of model transformation rules, along with two two concrete model slicers implemented based on this instantiation.
Temperature can enhance coherent oscillations at a Landau-Zener transition

description: We consider sweeping a system through a Landau-Zener avoided-crossing, when that system is also coupled to an environment or noise. Unsurprisingly, we find that decoherence suppresses the coherent oscillations of quantum superpositions of system states, as superpositions decohere into mixed states. However, we also find an effect we call "Lamb-assisted coherent oscillations", in which a Lamb shift exponentially enhances the coherent oscillation amplitude. This dominates for high-frequency environments such as super-Ohmic environments, where the coherent oscillations can grow exponentially as either the environment coupling or temperature are increased. The effect could be used as an experimental probe for high-frequency environments in such systems as molecular magnets, solid-state qubits, spin-polarized gases (neutrons or He3) or Bose-condensates.

Hydrothermal pretreatments to make durable pellets from herbaceous biomass
Creators: name: Yu, Yan
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2022

description: Crop residues (straw) as the alternative feedstocks for the pellet industry could reduce the dependence on woody biomass, the price of which is increasing. Yet, the lack of natural binders (such as lignin) and high ash content are impediments to produce durable pellets from herbaceous biomass feedstocks. This research aimed at improving the durability of agri-pellets using mild hydrothermal treatment of biomass prior to pelletization. Different ways of steam generation were explored at a mild-to-high temperature range (80-220 °C) to determine the effects on pellet quality improvement. The relationships between treatment severity factor and the main properties of the pellets were then developed. Results indicated that the pellet durability first increased but subsequently decreased as the severity factor increased. Energy consumption showed positive correlation while equilibrium moisture content showed negative correlation with the severity factor. The optimal treatment temperature was found to be 140 ℃ for biomass with 50% moisture content (wb), and 180 ℃ was able to produce high quality pellets with lower ash content. Pellet durability, energy consumption during pelletization, and water sorption were all affected by an increase in lignin content due to the decomposition of hemicellulose together with the change of particle size distribution. Overall, this study has explored a relatively wide range of hydrothermal treatment conditions, which includes low to high biomass moisture content, treatment temperature, and treatment time. It not only considers the potential for commercial-scale agri-pellet production, but also detects the potential of lower treatment severity for the biomass, utilizing less water and energy for pelletization. Moreover, from the biomass quality perspective, this study also detects the best conditions for producing the pellets with greater durability, higher calorific value, and lower ash content.

description: We introduce a new maximum likelihood method to model the density profile of Blue Horizontal Branch and Blue Straggler stars and apply it to the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Data Release 8 (DR8) photometric catalogue. There are a large number (20,000) of these tracers available over an impressive 14,000 square degrees in both Northern and Southern Galactic hemispheres, and they provide a robust measurement of the shape of the Milky Way stellar halo. After masking out stars in the vicinity of the Virgo Overdensity and the Sagittarius stream, the data are consistent with a smooth, oblate stellar halo with a density that follows a broken power-law. The best fitting model has an inner slope = 2.3 and an outer slope = 4.6, together with a break radius occurring at 27 kpc and a constant halo flattening (that is, ratio of minor axis to major axis) of q = 0.6. Although a broken power-law describes the density fall-off most adequately, it is also well fit by an Einasto profile. There is no strong evidence for variations in flattening with radius, or for triaxiality of the stellar halo.

description: We propose a simple high-scale inflationary scenario based on a phenomenologically viable model with direct gauge mediation of low-scale supersymmetry breaking. Hybrid inflation is occurred in a hidden supersymmetry breaking sector. Two hierarchical mass scales to reconcile both high-scale inflation and gauge mediation are necessary for the stability of the metastable supersymmetry breaking vacuum. Our scenario is also natural in light of the Landau pole problem of direct gauge mediation.

description: Calves are crucial to the growth of the nation's dairy industry because the future of the dairy herd is totally dependent on the proper rearing of young calves. In particular, female calves are preserved for herd replacement. When they are sold, the male calves are often kept up until weaning. Calf care is crucial for both the survival of the dairy business and the preservation and maintenance of our high-quality genetic material. Calves may die from diseases like pneumonia, calf scours, navel infections, and worm infestations (Ascariasis), as well as from under or overfeeding. These conditions can reduce calf mortality to less than 10% with proper care.

description: In this work, we report on our recent research results on “Badger: Complexity Analysis with Fuzzing and Symbolic Execution” which was published in the proceedings of the 27th ACM SIGSOFT International Symposium on Software Testing and Analysis [NKP18]. Badger employs a hybrid software analysis technique that combines fuzzing and symbolic execution for finding performance bottlenecks in software. Our primary goal is to use Badger to discover vulnerabilities which are related to worst-case time or space complexity of an application. To this end, we use a cost-guided fuzzing approach, which produces inputs to increase the code coverage, but also to maximize a resource-related cost function, such as execution time or memory usage. We combine this fuzzing technique with a customized symbolic execution, which is also guided by heuristics that aim to increase the same cost. Experimental evaluation shows that this hybrid approach enables us to use the strengths of both techniques and overcome their individual weaknesses.

description: Successful open source communities are constantly looking for new members and helping them become active developers. A common approach for developer onboarding in open source projects is to let newcomers focus on relevant yet easy-to-solve issues to familiarize themselves with the code and the community. The goal of this research is twofold. First, we aim at automatically identifying issues that newcomers can resolve by analyzing the history of resolved issues by simply using the title and description of issues. Second, we aim at automatically identifying issues, that can be resolved by newcomers who later become active developers. We mined the issue trackers of three large open source projects and extracted natural language features from the title and description of resolved issues. In a series of experiments, we optimized and compared the accuracy of four supervised classifiers to address our research goals. Random Forest, achieved up to 91% precision (F1-score 72%) towards the first goal while for the second goal, Decision Tree achieved a precision of 92% (F1-score 91%). A qualitative evaluation gave insights on what information in the issue description is helpful for newcomers. Our approach can be used to automatically identify, label, and recommend issues for newcomers in open source software projects based only on the text of the issues.

A bijection for triangulations, quadrangulations, pentagulations, etc

Year: 2010
Subjects: subject: Combinatorics (math.CO)

description: A $d$-angulation is a planar map with faces of degree $d$. We present for each integer $d\geq 3$ a bijection between the class of $d$-angulations of girth $d$ (i.e., with no cycle of length less than $d$) and a class of decorated plane trees. Each of the bijections is obtained by specializing a "master bijection" which extends an earlier construction of the first author. Our construction unifies known bijections by Fusy, Poulalhon and Schaeffer for triangulations ($d=3$) and by Schaeffer for quadrangulations ($d=4$). For $d\geq 5$, both the bijections and the enumerative results are new. We also extend our bijections so as to enumerate \emph{$p$-gonal $d$-angulations} ($d$-angulations with a simple boundary of length $p$) of girth $d$. We thereby recover bijectively the results of Brown for simple $p$-gonal triangulations and simple $2p$-gonal quadrangulations and establish new results for $d\geq 5$. A key ingredient in our proofs is a class of orientations characterizing $d$-angulations of girth $d$. Earlier results by Schnyder and by De Fraysseix and Ossona de Mendez showed that simple triangulations and simple quadrangulations are characterized by the existence of orientations having respectively indegree 3 and 2 at each inner vertex. We extend this characterization by showing that a $d$-angulation has girth $d$ if and only if the graph obtained by duplicating each edge $d-2$ times admits an orientation having indegree $d$ at each inner vertex.

description: In a 2018 article in the journal on Software & Systems Modeling we discussed the use of DSLs and language workbenches in the context of safety-critical software development. Language workbenches support the efficient creation, integration, and use of domain-specific languages. Typically, they execute models by code generation to programming language code. This can lead to increased productivity and higher quality. However, in safety-/mission-critical environments, generated code may not be considered trustworthy, because of the lack of trust in the generation mechanisms. This makes it harder to justify the use of language workbenches in such an environment. In the SOSYM paper, we demonstrate an approach to use such tools in critical environments. We argue that models created with domain-specific languages are easier to validate and that the additional risk resulting from the transformation to code can be mitigated by a suitably designed transformation and verification architecture. We validate the approach with an industrial case study from the healthcare domain. We also discuss the degree to which the approach is appropriate for critical software in space, automotive, and robotics systems.
At an impasse : the possibilities of feminist resistance in Han Kang’s Ch’aeshikjuŭija and Deborah Smith’s The Vegetarian
Creators: name: Willsie, Jane
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2022

description: In 2016, The Vegetarian—Deborah Smith’s English version of South Korean author Han Kang’s novel 채식주의자 (Ch’aeshikchuŭija)—won the International Booker Prize, resulting in heightened discourse among both Western and Korean reviewers and literary scholars on the novel’s dark and bizarrely surreal story of an ordinary woman whose vegetarianism spirals into psychosis when she begins to believe she is becoming a tree. The aim of this thesis is to examine the possibilities of radical feminist resistance through madness in The Vegetarian’s depiction of a burgeoning psychosis that takes place in a metamorphosis of the body that is readable both as a sublime transformation into the nonhuman and pathological insanity leading to starvation. The main body of this thesis is an examination of some feminist theory’s historical omission of biology from discussions of affect, leading, I shall argue, to a tendency in some feminist scholarship on female madness to prioritize symbolic depictions of the body over anatomical ones. This tendency is in turn then linked to scholarship on The Vegetarian that reads the novel symbolically, leading to discussions of its protagonist that focus on the possibilities or failures of her metamorphosis/psychosis as radical resistance. Using Silvan Tomkins’ theory of affects as “amplifiers” that motivate or suppress the fulfillment of biological drives, this thesis argues that the protagonist’s metamorphosis is catalyzed and motivated by an affective reaction to trauma that takes real anatomical form. Turning to Elizabeth Wilson’s theory of the psychic capabilities of the body, what she terms the “biological unconscious” this thesis then constructs a framework for reading The Vegetarian that centers the biological motivations for her metamorphosis. Seeing affect as a mechanism that has biological implications, and not just discursive ones, this thesis concludes that the protagonist’s entanglement of symbolic meaning and bodily destruction in her metamorphosis is not an expression of the possibilities of feminist resistance, but an elucidation of the impasse that results from being unable to escape or change a society in which one can no longer live.

description: Cloud simulators are complex programs that can simulate a cloud infrastructure and applications running on that infrastructure. Such simulators are often used to evaluate new algorithms for cloud resource management and software deployment optimization. However, the implementation of such algorithms in a cloud simulator is a challenging task that may lead to erosion of the architecture of the simulator, and even to faults in the implementation. Using appropriate abstractions, a clear separation of concerns can be achieved.

description: This series of papers is devoted to identifying and explaining the properties of strongly correlating liquids, i.e., liquids with more than 90% correlation between their virial W and potential energy U fluctuations in the NVT ensemble. Paper IV [N. Gnan et al., J. Chem. Phys. v131, 234504 (2009)] showed that strongly correlating liquids have "isomorphs", which are curves in the phase diagram along which structure, dynamics, and some thermodynamic properties are invariant in reduced units. In the present paper, using the fact that reduced-unit radial distribution functions are isomorph invariant, we derive an expression for the shapes of isomorphs in the WU phase diagram of generalized Lennard-Jones systems of one or more types of particles. The isomorph shape depends only on the Lennard-Jones exponents; thus all isomorphs of standard Lennard-Jones systems (with exponents 12 and 6) can be scaled onto to a single curve. Two applications are given. One is testing the prediction that the solid-liquid coexistence curve follows an isomorph by comparing to recent simulations by Ahmed and Sadus [J. Chem. Phys. v131, 174504 (2009)]. Excellent agreement is found on the liquid side of the coexistence, whereas the agreement is worse on the solid side. A second application is the derivation of an approximate equation of state for generalized Lennard-Jones systems by combining the isomorph theory with the Rosenfeld-Tarazona expression for the temperature dependence of potential energy on isochores. It is shown that the new equation of state agrees well with simulations.

description: The importance of center vortices for the understanding of the confining properties of SU(N) Yang-Mills theories is well established in the lattice. However, in the continuum, there is a problem concerning the relevance of center vortex backgrounds. They display the so called Savvidy-Nielsen-Olesen instability, associated with a gyromagnetic ratio $g^{(b)}_m=2$ for the off-diagonal gluons. In this work, we initially consider the usual definition of a {\it thin} center vortex and rewrite it in terms of a local color frame in SU(N) Yang-Mills theories. Then, we define a thick center vortex as a diagonal deformation of the thin object. Besides the usual thick background profile, this deformation also contains a frame defect coupled with gyromagnetic ratio $g^{(d)}_m=1$, originated from the charged sector. As a consequence, the analysis of stability is modified. In particular, we point out that the defect should stabilize a vortex configuration formed by a pair of straight components separated by an appropriate finite distance.

description: With the expansion of highly fluctuating renewable energies (like wind power and photovoltaics) in the last few years, the intelligent integration of these new energy sources into the German energy system is becoming one of the central challenges. Biogas plants can play a key role in this transition. The present thesis investigates the possibilities, underlying mechanisms and dependencies establishing a flexible biogas production by means of demand-driven feeding. Furthermore, a robust control concept for demand-driven operation has to be developed and demonstrated in full-scale.

description: The goals of this study were to centralize the voices of Black Canadian male student-athletes by investigating their experiences as students, athletes, Black males and children of immigrant parents, and examining how these experiences might contextualize their transition out of university sport. Qualitative interviews with 20 former and current Black Canadian student-athletes were conducted using Critical Race Theory (CRT) as a methodological framework. Several of the participants described the racial, athletic and academic stereotypes that shaped their experiences, illustrating, in some cases, the influence of the Black American culture on Black Canadians. The analysis focused on how the interview participants interpreted their experiences and how stereotypes were used to make sense of their university and transition experiences. Some participants rejected the stereotypes evoked, some challenged them in an attempt to prove them wrong, while others used them to “act more Black”. Furthermore, the degree to which these stereotypes interacted with their transition experiences centered around autonomy, the emulation of role models and of developing career opportunities highlighted the initiative displayed by most of these student-athletes. The intersection of these factors, combined with their immigrant parents’ inexperience navigating the Canadian university system, forced most of these young men to transition out of university and varsity athletics on their own.

description: In most of critical infrastructures, Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) are deployed due to their low-cost, flexibility and efficiency as well as their wide usage in several infrastructures. Regardless of these advantages, WSNs introduce various security vulnerabilities such as different types of attacks and intruders due to the open nature of sensor nodes and unreliable wireless links. Therefore, the implementation of an efficient Intrusion Detection System (IDS) that achieves an acceptable security level is a stimulating issue that gained vital importance. In this thesis, we investigate the problem of security provisioning in WSNs based critical monitoring infrastructures. We propose a trust based hierarchical model for malicious nodes detection specially for Black-hole attacks. We also present various Machine Learning (ML)-driven IDSs schemes for wirelessly connected sensors that track critical infrastructures. In this thesis, we present an in-depth analysis of the use of machine learning, deep learning, adaptive machine learning, and reinforcement learning solutions to recognize intrusive behaviours in the monitored network. We evaluate the proposed schemes by using KDD'99 as real attacks data-sets in our simulations. To this end, we present the performance metrics for four different IDSs schemes namely the Clustered Hierarchical Hybrid IDS (CHH-IDS), Adaptively Supervised and Clustered Hybrid IDS (ASCH-IDS), Restricted Boltzmann Machine-based Clustered IDS (RBC-IDS) and Q-learning based IDS (QL-IDS) to detect malicious behaviours in a sensor network. Through simulations, we analyzed all presented schemes in terms of Accuracy Rates (ARs), Detection Rates (DRs), False Negative Rates (FNRs), Precision-recall ratios, F_1 scores and, the area under curves (ROC curves) which are the key performance parameters for all IDSs. To this end, we show that QL-IDS performs with ~ 100% detection and accuracy rates.

description: We investigate the physics of quantum reference frames. Specifically, we study several simple scenarios involving a small number of quantum particles, whereby we promote one of these particles to the role of a quantum observer and ask what is the description of the rest of the system, as seen by this observer? We highlight the interesting aspects of such questions by presenting a number of apparent paradoxes. By unravelling these paradoxes we get a better understanding of the physics of quantum reference frames.

Strong [O III] and [N II] emission lines in globular clusters from photoionized R Corona Borealis star winds

description: The globular cluster X-ray source CXO J033831.8-352604 in NGC 1399 has recently been found to show strong emission lines of [O III] and [N II] in its optical spectrum in addition to ultraluminous X-ray emission with a soft X-ray spectrum. It was further suggested that this system contained an intermediate mass black hole which had tidally disrupted a white dwarf, producing the strong emission lines without detectable hydrogen emission. We show that an alternative exists which can explain the data more naturally in which the oxygen and nitrogen rich material is ejecta from a RCB star, or a tidal disruption of an RCB star or a hydrogen-deficient carbon star. The scenario we propose here does not require an intermediate mass black hole as the accretor, but also does not exclude the possibility.

description: We have conducted N-body simulations of the growth of Milky Way-sized halos in cold and warm dark matter cosmologies. The number of dark matter satellites in our simulated Milky Ways decreases with decreasing mass of the dark matter particle. Assuming that the number of dark matter satellites exceeds or equals the number of observed satellites of the Milky Way we derive lower limits on the dark matter particle mass. We find with 95% confidence m_s > 13.3 keV for a sterile neutrino produced by the Dodelson and Widrow mechanism, m_s > 8.9 keV for the Shi and Fuller mechanism, m_s > 3.0 keV for the Higgs decay mechanism, and m_{WDM} > 2.3 keV for a thermal dark matter particle. The recent discovery of many new dark matter dominated satellites of the Milky Way in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey allows us to set lower limits comparable to constraints from the complementary methods of Lyman-alpha forest modeling and X-ray observations of the unresolved cosmic X-ray background and of dark matter halos from dwarf galaxy to cluster scales. Future surveys like LSST, DES, PanSTARRS, and SkyMapper have the potential to discover many more satellites and further improve constraints on the dark matter particle mass.

description: CU Virginis is a rapidly rotating Magnetic Chemically Peculiar star with at present unique characteristics as radio emitter. The most intriguing one is the presence of intense, 100% circularly polarized radiation ascribed to Cyclotron Maser. Each time the star rotates, this highly beamed emission points two times toward the Earth, like a pulsar. We observed CU Vir in April 2010 with the EVLA in two bands centered at 1450 and 1850 MHz. We covered nearly the whole rotational period, confirming the presence of the two pulses at a flux density up to 20 mJy. Dynamical spectra, obtained with unprecedented spectral and temporal sensitivity, allow us to clearly see the different time delays as a function of the frequency. We interpret this behaviour as a propagation effect of the radiation inside the stellar magnetosphere. The emerging scenario suggests interesting similarities with the auroral radio emission from planets, in particular with the Auroral Kilometric Radiation (AKR) from Earth, which originates at few terrestrial radii above the magnetic poles and was only recently discovered to be highly beamed. We conclude that the magnetospheres of CU Vir, Earth and other planets, maybe also exoplanets, could have similar geometrical and physical characteristics in the regions where the cyclotron maser is generated. In addition, the pulses are perfect "markers" of the rotation period. This has given us for the first time the possibility to measure with extraordinary accuracy the spin down of a star on or near the main sequence.

description: We construct discrete versions of $κ$-Minkowski space related to a certain compactness of the time coordinate. We show that these models fit into the framework of noncommutative geometry in the sense of spectral triples. The dynamical system of the underlying discrete groups (which include some Baumslag--Solitar groups) is heavily used in order to construct \emph{finitely summable} spectral triples. This allows to bypass an obstruction to finite-summability appearing when using the common regular representation. The dimension of these spectral triples is unrelated to the number of coordinates defining the $κ$-deformed Minkowski spaces.
