description: Agile development is conventional these days and with the passage of time software developers are rapidly moving from Waterfall to Agile development. Agile methods focus on delivering executable code quickly by increasing the responsiveness of software companies while decreasing development overhead and consider people as the strongest pillar of software development. As agile development overshadows Waterfall methodologies for software development, it comes up with some distinct challenges related to testing of such software. Our study is going to discuss the challenges this approach has stirred up. Some of the challenges are discussed in this paper with possible solutions and approaches used for resolving these challenges. Also, the tools in practice are mentioned to improve the efficiency of the process.

description: Market as the economical mechanism is not ideal. With the purpose of market failures activity negative results elimination the economical processes regulation even in form of direct governmental interventionism is needed. There is historically considered that agriculture and agribusiness as the whole need such kind of governmental support in the biggest extent. The analyzed indexes of governmental support of agribusiness in Ukraine show that it is insufficient, what is the result of united governmental agrarian policy real absence in this country. That policy need to take into account so much wide assortment of social, economical and ecological problems. Two main directions of governmental agrarian policy in Ukraine shell to be included: creation of conditions for agriculture development as the base for village development; creation of conditions for agriculture complex development as the base for agriculture development.

description: We consider a class of Fuchsian equations that, for instance, describes the evolution of compressible fluid flows on a cosmological spacetime. Using the method of lines, we introduce a numerical algorithm for the singular initial value problem when data are imposed on the cosmological singularity and the evolution is performed from the singularity hypersurface. We approximate the singular Cauchy problem of Fuchsian type by a sequence of regular Cauchy problems, which we next discretize by pseudo-spectral and Runge-Kutta techniques. Our main contribution is a detailed analysis of the numerical error which has two distinct sources, and our main proposal here is to keep in balance the errors arising at the continuum and at the discrete levels of approximation. We present numerical experiments which strongly support our theoretical conclusions. This strategy is finally applied to applied to compressible fluid flows evolving on a Kasner spacetime, and we numerically demonstrate the nonlinear stability of such flows, at least in the so-called sub-critical regime identified earlier by the authors.

description: We study the effects of quantum fluctuations and the excitation spectrum for the antiferromagnetic Heisenberg model on a two-dimensional quasicrystal, by numerically solving linear spin-wave theory on finite approximants of the octagonal tiling. Previous quantum Monte Carlo results for the distribution of local staggered magnetic moments and the static spin structure factor are reproduced well within this approximate scheme. Furthermore, the magnetic excitation spectrum consists of magnon-like low-energy modes, as well as dispersionless high-energy states of multifractal nature. The dynamical spin structure factor, accessible to inelastic neutron scattering, exhibits linear-soft modes at low energies, self-similar structures with bifurcations emerging at intermediate energies, and flat bands in high-energy regions. We find that the distribution of local staggered moments stemming from the inhomogeneity of the quasiperiodic structure leads to a characteristic energy spread in the local dynamical spin susceptibility, implying distinct nuclear magnetic resonance spectra, specific for different local environments.

description: The European Union has set energy targets to reduce CO2 emissions. Until 2030 the power sector is supposed to cut 54 to 68 % of its Green House Gases. In order to achieve this goal power generation needs to change significantly. This thesis demonstrates that enormous Transmission Network Development is essential for integrating large shares of variable renewable energy sources. In order to do so four future 2030 scenarios from different stakeholders, Greenpeace, McKinsey, ENTSO-e and the Climate Change foundation are analysed in regard to the electricity production and necessary transmission network capacity. In a follow up step European Union policies are assessed in regard to the objective of guaranteeing sufficient transmission lines and capacity for a low carbon energy sector. EU Regulation (EC) No 714/2009 on access to cross-border electricity infrastructure and Regulation (EU) No 347/2013 on trans-European energy infrastructure is analysed in more detail and four major challenges for European grid development are identified: uncertainty in the energy sector, bottom up approach in European network development, permitting process and unbundling.

description: Der Beruf des Architekten, in früheren Zeiten vollkommen handwerklich, ist heute sehr komplex. Das erfolgreiche Berufsleben der ArchitektInnen basiert nicht nur auf ihrem umfangreichen berufsbezogenen Wissen, sondern auch auf der technischen Kompetenz, ihrem guten Verständnis für die soziokulturellen Phänomene in der Gesellschaft, auf dem ständigen Lernen und ihrem innovativen Denken. Deswegen wird im Architekturstudium heutzutage neben dem theoretischen Wissen und praktischen Fähigkeiten einen großen Wert auf die Forschung und auf die Kommunikationsfähigkeit gelegt. Daher müssen die Ausbildungsgebäude nicht nur den störungsfreien Lernprozess sicherstellen, sondern auch die räumliche Wahrnehmung der Studierenden stimulieren und ihre Inspiration und Kreativität wecken. Die Diplomarbeit befasst sich mit der Planung eines neuen Fakultätsgebäudes für die Architektur Departement von der ETH Zürich. Das Planungsareal ist das alte Kasernenareal, das in der Nähe vom Stadtzentrum liegt und über Grünflächen und unter Schutz gestellten Bestandsgebäude verfügt, deren Umnutzung im Projekt mitgedacht wird. Das Areal ist ein beliebtes Erholungsgebiet in der Stadt, das täglich viele BesucherInnen anzieht. Deswegen werden im Projekt neben dem Schaffen von einer guten Lernumgebung noch die Interaktion zwischen Lernenden, Lehrenden und der Öffentlichkeit stimuliert und Räume für Kommunikation und kreativen Austausch angeboten.
description: The profession of architects has become very complex within recent years. What once meant preparing everything by hand with the greatest skills and care has shifted and today the success of architects is based not only on their extensive professional knowledge but also on their technical competence, their good understanding of sociocultural phenomena in society and their continuous learning and innovative thinking. For this reason, in addition to theoretical knowledge and practical skills, architecture studies today attach great importance to develop researching and communicational skills. Therefore, the university building does not only have to ensure the trouble-free learning process, but to stimulate the spatial perception of students as well as enhance their inspiration and creativity. The thesis deals with the planning of a new faculty building for the architecture department of ETH Zurich. The planning area is the old barracks area, which is close to the city center and has green areas and protected existing buildings, which will be included in the project. The area is a popular recreation area in the city which attracts many visitors daily. In addition to creating a good learning environment, the project also stimulates the interaction between learners, teachers and the public and offers spaces for communication and creative exchange.

description: The use of buried dopants to construct quantum-dot cellular automata is investigated as an alternative to conventional electronic devices for information transport and elementary computation. This provides a limit in terms of miniaturisation for this type of system as each potential well is formed by a single dopant atom. As an example, phosphorous donors in silicon are found to have good energy level separation with incoherent switching times of the order of microseconds. However, we also illustrate the possibility of ultra-fast quantum coherent switching via adiabatic evolution. The switching speeds are numerically calculated and found to be 10's of picoseconds or less for a single cell. The effect of decoherence is also simulated in the form of a dephasing process and limits are estimated for operation with finite dephasing. The advantages and limitations of this scheme over the more conventional quantum-dot based scheme are discussed. The use of a buried donor cellular automata system is also discussed as an architecture for testing several aspects of buried donor based quantum computing schemes.

description: A virtual team is a group of geographically distant people who work together to achieve a shared goal for a common organization. From the past few years this concept has been evolved and has emerged the idea of global project management. Virtual teams have been beneficial in cost reduction; hiring competent work force and improving globalization. Although virtual teams are beneficial for an organization; but they are hard to manage and control successfully. There can be several challenges like cultural issues; different time zones and communication gap. These challenges are not hard to manage; and we can overcome these challenges using effective project management skills. These skills will become the success factors for making virtual teams successful and will be determined by comparison of the survey results of traditional and virtual teams.

description: The behavior of the quintessence field is studied during inflation. In order to have a satisfactory model of dark energy, the quintessence field value today should be as insensible to the initial conditions as possible. Usually, only the dependence on the initial conditions specified at the end of inflation or, equivalently, at the beginning of the radiation dominated era, is considered. Provided the quintessence field is initially within a large but, crucially, finite interval, its present value becomes independent of the initial value it started from. The question as to whether inflation naturally drives the quintessence field to the above-mentioned interval is addressed. Since the quantum effects turn out to be important, the formalism of stochastic inflation is used in order to calculate the evolution of the quintessence field. Moreover, the quantum effects originating from the inflaton field are also taken into account and are proved to be sub-dominant in most cases. Finally, the requirement that the quintessence field is on tracks today is shown to imply quite tight constraints on the initial values of the quintessence and inflaton fields at the beginning of inflation. In particular, the initial value of the inflaton field cannot be too large which indicates that the quintessential scenario seems to be compatible with inflation only if the total number of e-folds is quite small.

description: Selected communes and their residents appreciate the benefits arising from the use of renewable energy sources. They are aware of the benefits of mounting solar collectors. Analyzed communes received EU support to enable the implementation of projects using solar energy. It should be emphasized that the installation of these devices is a very costly investment, so in both cases the union’s support was a very important to the project. EU financial assistance was one of the key factors enabling the installation of solar systems. The study shows that the most important indicator for the residents of imaging performance solar collectors or the coverage of demand for hot water, was almost 50%, which is a very good result. Reduce emissions of air pollutants in the Biłgoraj community reduced to about 1560 tons per year and in communities of the eastern Mazovia to 1357 tons per year.

description: Language-based robot control is a powerful and versatile method to control a robot manipulator where large language models (LLMs) are used to reason about the environment. However, the generated robot motions by these controllers often lack safety and performance, resulting in jerky movements. In this work, a novel modular framework for zero-shot motion planning for manipulation tasks is developed. The modular components do not require any motion-planning-specific training. An LLM is combined with a vision model to create Python code that interacts with a novel path planner, which creates a piecewise linear reference path with bounds around the path that ensure safety. An optimization-based planner, the BoundMPC framework [1], is utilized to execute optimal, safe, and collision-free trajectories along the reference path. The effectiveness of the approach is shown on various everyday manipulation tasks in simulation and experiment, shown in the video at www.acin.tuwien.ac.at/42d2.
Tracing the Dynabook : a study of technocultural transformations
Creators: name: Maxwell, John W.
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: The origins of the personal computer are found in an educational vision. Desktop computing and multimedia were not first conceived as tools for office workers or media professionals— they were prototyped as "personal dynamic media" for children. Alan Kay, then at Xerox' Palo Alto Research Center, saw in the emerging digital world the possibility of a communications revolution and argued that this revolution should be in the hands of children. Focusing on the development of the "Dynabook," Kay's research group established a wide-ranging conception of personal and educational computing, based on the ideal of a new systems literacy, of which computing is an integral part. j Kay's research led to two dominant computing paradigms: the graphical user interface for personal computers, and object-oriented programming. By contrast, Kay's educational vision has been largely forgotten, overwhelmed by the sheer volume of discourse on e-learning and the Web. However, an historical analysis of Kay's educational project and its many contributions reveals a conception of educational computing that is in many ways more compelling than anything we have today, as it is based on a solid foundation of educational theory, one that substantially anticipates and addresses some of the biggest civil/political issues of our time, those of the openness and ownership of cultural expression. The Dynabook is a candidate for what 21st-century literacy might look like in a liberal, individualist, decentralized, and democratic key. This dissertation is a historical treatment of the Dynabook vision and its implementations in changing contexts over 35 years. It is an attempt to trace the development of a technocultural artifact: the Dynabook, itself partly an idealized vision and partly a series of actual technologies. It is thus a work of cultural history. But it is more than simply a looking back; the effective history of the Dynabook, its various incarnations, and its continuing re-emergence and re-articulation mean that the relevance of this story is an ongoing question which needs to be recognized and addressed by educators, technologists, and learners today. This dissertation represents an introduction to this case.

description: Magnetic fields of strongly magnetized stars can trap conducting matter due to frozen-in condition. In the force-free regime, the motion of the matter along the field lines may be considered in the "bead on a wire" approximation. Such a motion, if gravity and centrifugal forces are taken into account, has equilibrium points, some of which are stable. In most cases, stability is possible in about several per cent of the possible locations. Corresponding oscillation frequencies span the range from zero to $\sqrt{3}$ of the spin frequency. We suggest that this variability mode may be excited in some X-ray pulsars during the outbursts and create the peaked broad-band noise component near the break frequency in the power density spectrum, as well as produce some of the quasi-periodic oscillation features in this frequency range. Existence of this variability does not require any changes in mass accretion rate and involves only a small amount of matter infiltrating from the disc and magnetic flow due to interchange instabilities.

The Dynamical Velocity Superposition Effect in the Quantum-Foam In-Flow Theory of Gravity
Creators: name: Cahill, Reginald T.
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2004
Subjects: subject: General Physics (physics.gen-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: The new `quantum-foam in-flow' theory of gravity has explained numerous so-called gravitational anomalies, particularly the `dark matter' effect which is now seen to be a dynamical effect of space itself, and whose strength is determined by the fine structure constant, and not by Newton's gravitational constant G. Here we show an experimentally significant approximate dynamical effect, namely a vector superposition effect which arises under certain dynamical conditions when we have absolute motion and gravitational in-flows: the velocities for these processes are shown to be approximately vectorially additive under these conditions. This effect plays a key role in interpreting the data from the numerous experiments that detected the absolute linear motion of the earth. The violations of this superposition effect lead to observable effects, such as the generation of turbulence. The flow theory also leads to vorticity effects that the Gravity Probe B gyroscope experiment will soon begin observing. As previously reported General Relativity predicts a smaller vorticity effect (therein called the Lense-Thirring `frame-dragging' effect) than the new theory of gravity.

One has used three existing methods used by: the IERiGŻ (synthetic indicator of the business outlook in agriculture SWKR), Institute of Regional Development Economics SGH (indicator of the business outlook in agriculture) in the article. The study shows that the indicators SGH and SWKR are complementary to each other, which is due to their different structures and their character. The second one could be a barometer (reference ratio) in relation to the first. The extracted business cycles in agriculture were asymmetrical. Phase of growth was more gentle and long, in turn downward: violent and shorter.

description: One can point to a variety of historical milestones for gender equality in STEM (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics), however, practical effects are incremental and ongoing. It is important to quantify gender differences in subdomains of scientific work in order to detect potential biases and monitor progress. In this work, we study the relevance of gender in scientific collaboration patterns in the Institute for Operations Research and the Management Sciences (INFORMS), a professional society with sixteen peer-reviewed journals. Using their publication data from 1952 to 2016, we constructed a large temporal bipartite network between authors and publications, and augmented the author nodes with gender labels. We characterized differences in several basic statistics of this network over time, highlighting how they have changed with respect to relevant historical events. We find a steady increase in participation by women (e.g., fraction of authorships by women and of new women authors) starting around 1980. However, women still comprise less than 25% of the INFORMS society and an even smaller fraction of authors with many publications. Moreover, we describe a methodology for quantifying the structural role of an authorship with respect to the overall connectivity of the network, using it to measure subtle differences between authorships by women and by men. Specifically, as measures of structural importance of an authorship, we use effective resistance and contraction importance, two measures related to diffusion throughout a network. As a null model, we propose a degree-preserving temporal and geometric network model with emergent communities. Our results suggest the presence of systematic differences between the collaboration patterns of men and women that cannot be explained by only local statistics.

description: We present Infrared Space Observatory (ISO) observations of several OH, CH and H2O rotational lines toward the bright infrared galaxies NGC253 and NGC1068. As found in the Galactic clouds in SgrB2 and Orion, the extragalactic far-IR OH lines change from absorption to emission depending on the physical conditions and distribution of gas and dust along the line of sight. As a result, most of the OH rotational lines that appear in absorption toward NGC253 are observed in emission toward NGC1068. We show that the far-IR spectrum of OH can be used as a powerful diagnostic to derive the physical conditions of extragalactic neutral gas. In particular, we find that a warm (Tk~150 K, n(H2)< 5 10^4 cm^-3) component of molecular gas with an OH abundance of 10^{-7} from the inner <15'' can qualitatively reproduce the OH lines toward NGC253. Similar temperatures but higher densities (5 10^5 cm^-3) are required to explain the OH emission in NGC1068.

description: Outer space activities have entered a period of continuous expansion through privatization, tourism, military and other efforts, simultaneously increasing the concern for potential environmental impacts caused by the increased amount of space operations on the Earth, space and other planetary ecosystems. With an interdisciplinary approach including a strong technical focus, assessing environmental pollution on the earth, space and planetary environments, as well as a strong legal focus, determining potential legal requirements for the conduct of procedures assessing environmental impacts of a proposed action previous. The analysis is based on the three largest emission sources of spaceflight: (1) Launching- and Flight-Stage Pollution, including rocket propulsion emissions, hazardous materials, and air, water, soil contaminations inter alia, (2) Space Debris, and (3) Planetary Contamination, including backward and forward pollution on earth and other planetary systems. The definition, aim, and structure of terrestrial Environmental Impact Assessment procedures are discussed, including the relevant national, European and international legal basis and application. The thesis continues by evaluating legal norms and regulations governing the use of Environmental Impact Assessments for outer space projects. This thesis seeks to assess if national, European and international legislation and guidelines establish a requirement for the conduct of EIAs including the establishment of prevention and mitigation measures for environmental consequences arising from the use and exploration of outer space. The legal and technical frameworks are further assessed in the case study of NASA’s Mars 2020 Mission and the therefore published Environmental Impact Statement. Recommendations are given with respect to widening the legal application not only on the requirement of assessing potential harm by a space mission but also in establishing obligations on the oversight of compliance with prevention and mitigation measures for the minimization of environmental consequences set up in an Environmental Impact Statement.

description: Ion assisted deposition (IAD) has been investigated for the growth of GaN, and the resulting films studied by x-ray diffraction and absorption spectroscopy and by transmission electron microscopy. IAD grown stoichiometric GaN consists of random-stacked quasicrystals of some 3 nm diameter. Amorphous material is formed only by incorporation of 15% or more oxygen, which we attribute to the presence of non-tetrahedral bonds centered on oxygen. The ionic favourability of heteropolar bonds and its strikingly simple constraint to even-membered rings is the likely cause of the instability of stoichiometric a-GaN.

description: We present an analysis of the properties of the hot interstellar medium (ISM) in the merging pair of galaxies known as The Antennae (NGC 4038/39), performed using the deep, coadded ~411 ks Chandra ACIS-S data set. These deep X-ray observations and Chandra's high angular resolution allow us to investigate the properties of the hot ISM with unprecedented spatial and spectral resolution. Through a spatially resolved spectral analysis, we find a variety of temperatures (from 0.2 to 0.7 keV) and Nh (from Galactic to 2x10^21 cm^-2). Metal abundances for Ne, Mg, Si, and Fe vary dramatically throughout the ISM from sub-solar values (~0.2) up to several times solar.

description: Rye is a small-grain cereal with an extensive and well-branched root system that is particularly suitable for grain production in marginal environments where other grain cereals, especially wheat, cannot thrive well. However, no significant genetic gain could be achieved to improve plant height and lodging resistance in the last 30 years in rye. Thus, the relatively low grain-to-straw ratio currently hinders rye from becoming more integrated into cereal crop rotations. Here, we report first results on the effects of the gibberellin-sensitive dwarfing gene Ddw1 on the root system and aboveground traits of rye under field conditions. We assessed root traits of semidwarf and tall genotypes in two field environments at the time of anthesis using soil coring, the core-break method and root scans. Semidwarfs revealed no negative but slightly positive effects on rooting depth, total root length, root length density, and cumulative root length distribution. While plant height was significantly reduced, no increase in harvest index and grain yield was observed in semidwarf prototypes. We conclude that rye does not lose the advantages of its deep and widely branched root system with the introgression of Ddw1, especially not on marginal sites.

description: The increasing use of raw materials due to economic growth around the world is having an impact on our environment. Lithium in particular is gaining in importance as an industrial mineral due to the increased use of lithium8ion batteries and accumulators. However, it is being used in a wide array of application, like in glass and ceramics, batteries, cement production, lubricating greases and others. Hence, this thesis set out to develop a material flow analysis for the applications and quantities of lithium in the EU for the year 2014. As a result, conclusions about the potential for recycling and a circular economy for lithium will be drawn.
Static charge-imbalance effects in intrinsic Josephson systems

description: Nonequilibrium effects created by stationary current injection in layered d-wave superconductors forming a stack of intrinsic Josephson junctions are studied. Starting from a nonequilibrium Green function theory we derive microscopic expressions for the charge-imbalance (difference between electron- and hole-like quasi-particles) on the superconducting layers and investigate its influence on the quasi-particle current between the layers. This nonequilibrium effect leads to shifts in the current-voltage curves of the stack. The theory is applied to the interpretation of recent current injection experiments in double-mesa structures.

Constructing knowledge with digital technology : how high school science students can learn about unobservable phenomena using dynamic simulated analogies
Creators: name: Trey, Svetlana
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: Computer applications in the classroom are increasingly becoming effective tools for model-based teaching in science. A novel instructional computer simulation that incorporates a dynamic analogy to represent Le Chatelier’s Principle was designed for this study. The simulation provides an analogy to a chemical reaction, a scale, and links the analogy’s functionality to a chemical reaction. This connection where the analogy view is mapped to the components of a chemical reaction is hypothesized to be beneficial for visualization of students’ conceptual models of molecular interactions. Two study groups of 12th grade Chemistry students interacted with instructional computer simulation during the study. Both groups did the same simulation activities guided by a common set of guidance sheets. The difference between the two treatment conditions was that while one of the groups observed the analogical example in the analogy view window of the analogous simulation, the other group had to recall the analogical example. The analysis of the data suggested that analogies that are dynamic, interactive, and integrated in instructional computer simulation have a stronger effect on learning outcomes than analogies which are presented in the form of text and static pictures. The implication of the study is that educators may wish to consider model-based teaching via instructional computer simulations integrating an analogical view as a method to improve student learning.
