Industrialization in Fiji
Creators: name: Chandra, Rajesh
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: Industrialization has become one of the key strategies of development in the majority of the developing countries. Although not as committed to industrial transformation as the Newly Industrializing Countries, Fiji has, nonetheless, attempted to industrialize. Industrialization currently forms an important component of Fijian development strategy. This thesis investigates the industrialization of Fiji. Although its main focus is the contemporary manufacturing sector, the manufacturing sector is placed in its historical context. Ten major questions are posed in the thesis. These questions cover the theoretical approaches to and empirical situation in Third World industrialization, Fiji's integration into the international economic system, and the structure and organization of the contemporary Fijian manufacturing sector. The remaining questions address manufacturing linkages, location, and the role of the state in industrialization. Data used in the thesis were derived from field surveys, informal interviews, and documentary sources. Data were analysed using the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences at the University of British Columbia. The thesis finds that the Fijian manufacturing sector makes a small contribution to the GDP, but that it is an important component of the economy because of its close links with Fiji's most important foreign exchange earners. Although the volume of industrial production has increased in Fiji since independence, its share of the GDP has not altered significantly. The manufacturing sector consists of a large number of small units and a small number of large units that provide the bulk of employment and output. Intra-manufacturing sector linkages are weak, but resource processing activities have strong backward linkages with the primary sector. The state has maintained its commitment to the private sector since independence, although its ownership of the Fiji Sugar Corporation makes it an important direct producer in the manufacturing sector. State policies relating to the manufacturing sector have evolved steadily in Fiji, although the government has not effectively co-ordinated them. The Fijian experience of industrialization provides both support and criticism of existing theoretical approaches to Third World industrialization, and suggests a greater need for synthesis in these approaches.
SDSSJ104341.53+085558.2: A second white dwarf with a gaseous debris disc

description: Intermediate resolution spectroscopy of the white dwarf SDSSJ104341.53+085558.2 contains double-peaked emission lines of CaII8498,8542,8662 and identifies this object to be the second single white dwarf to be surrounded by a gaseous disc of metal-rich material, similar to the recently discovered SDSSJ1228+1040. A photospheric Magnesium abundance of 0.3 times the solar value, determined from the observed MgII4481 absorption line, implies that the white dwarf is accreting from the circumstellar material. The absence of Balmer emission lines and of photospheric HeI4471 absorption indicates that the accreted material is depleted in volatile elements and, by analogy with SDSS1228+1040, may be the result of the tidal disruption of an asteroid. Additional spectroscopy of the DAZ white dwarfs WD1337+705 and GD362 does not reveal CaII emission lines. GD362 is one of the few cool DAZ that display strong infrared flux excess, thought to be originating in a circumstellar dust disc, and its temperature is likely too low to sublimate sufficient amounts of disc material to generate detectable CaII emission. WD1337+705 is, as SDSS1228+1040 and SDSS1043+0855, moderately hot, but has the lowest Mg abundance of those three stars, suggesting a possible correlation between the photospheric Mg abundance and the equivalent width of the CaII emission triplet. Our inspection of 7360 white dwarfs from SDSS DR4 fails to unveil additional strong "metal gas disc" candidates, and implies that these objects are rather rare.

Helicity generation and alpha-effect by Vandakurov-Tayler instability with z-dependent differential rotation

description: We investigate in isothermal MHD simulations the instability of toroidal magnetic fields resulting by the action of z-dependent differential rotation on a given axial field B^0 in a cylindrical enclosure where in particular the helicity of the resulting nonaxisymmetric flow is of interest. The idea is probed that helicity H is related to the external field and the differential rotation as H ~ B^0_i B^0_j Omega_i,j. The observed instability leads to a nonaxisymmetric solution with dominating mode m=1. With the onset of instability both kinematic and current helicity are produced which fulfill the suggested relation. Obviously, differential rotation dOmega/dz only needs an external axial field B^0_z to produce remarkable amounts of the helicities. Any regular time-dependency of the helicity could not be found. The resulting axial alpha-effect is mainly due to the current helicity, the characteristic time scale between both the values is of order of the rotation time. If the axial field is switched off then the helicity and the alpha-effect disappear.

We introduce novel analysis techniques that allow to compute the coherence length in a model-independent way. Besides, we present strong evidence for a replicon correlator and for overlap equivalence. The emerging picture is compatible with non-coarsening behavior.

description: YVO3 exhibits a well separated sequence of orbital and spin order transitions at 200 K and 116 K, followed by a combined spin-orbital reorientation at 77 K. It is shown that the spin order can be destroyed by a sufficiently strong optical pulse within less than 4 ps. In contrast, the orbital reordering transition from C-type to G-type orbital order is slower than 100 ps and goes via an intermediate nonthermal phase. We propose that the dynamics of phase transitions is subjected to symmetry relations between the associated phases.

description: An increasing amount of information today is generated, exchanged, and stored digitally. This also includes long-lived and highly sensitive information (e.g., electronic health records, governmental documents) whose integrity and confidentiality must be protected over decades or even centuries. While there is a vast amount of cryptography-based data protection schemes, only few are designed for long-term protection. Recently, Braun et al. (AsiaCCS’17) proposed the first long-term protection scheme that provides renewable integrity protection and information-theoretic confidentiality protection. However, computation and storage costs of their scheme increase significantly with the number of stored data items. As a result, their scheme appears suitable only for protecting databases with a small number of relatively large data items, but unsuitable for databases that hold a large number of relatively small data items (e.g., medical record databases). In this work, we present a solution for efficient long-term integrity and confidentiality protection of large datasets consisting of relatively small data items. First, we construct a renewable vector commitment scheme that is information-theoretically hiding under selective decommitment. We then combine this scheme with renewable timestamps and information-theoretically secure secret sharing. The resulting solution requires only a single timestamp for protecting a dataset while the state of the art requires a number of timestamps linear in the number of data items. Furthermore, we extend the scheme, that supports a single client, to a multi-client setting. Subsequently, we characterize the arising challenges with respect to integrity and confidentiality and discuss how our multi-client scheme tackles them. We implemented our solution and measured its performance in a scenario where 9600 data items are aggregated, stored, protected, and verified over a time span of 80 years. Our measurements show that our new solution completes this evaluation scenario an order of magnitude faster than the state of the art.

description: Desigualdad económica es un concepto cuya importancia en la agenda política ha cobrado un mayor protagonismo debido a la crisis económica desencadenada en 2008 (Pickett & Wilkinson, 2015). Tradicionalmente, a la hora de definirla, se ha diferenciado entre la divergencia entre naciones o países y aquella que hace referencia a las variaciones en los estándares de calidad de vida entre los ciudadanos de una población determinada (McKay, 2002). Al estudiar esta última, en el contexto español, se constata su aumento durante el periodo 2007-2013, debido a los efectos colaterales de la recesión económica asociada a la crisis financiera global (Carabaña, 2016, p.168). Ante la relevancia actual de esta problemática, el objetivo de esta investigación se centra en conocer cómo se construye el concepto de desigualdad económica en la agenda mediática española para determinar el papel de los legacy media en un nuevo sistema híbrido de medios en el que comparten espacio con nuevos actores sociales, a la hora de configurar la opinión pública (Chadwick, 2016). Mediante el análisis de contenido se profundiza en la construcción de la idea de desigualdad económica desde varias dimensiones. En primer lugar, se estudia la conceptualización: definición, autor de la definición y área a la que se vincula. En segundo, se reconstruye el enfoque del relato periodístico en el cual se enmarca: características generales del texto referentes al género periodístico utilizado, autoría, ubicación y ámbito geográfico; valores noticia centrales (Harcup & O’Neill, 2017); tipificación multidimensional del relato (Reinemann, Stanyer, Scherr, & Legnante, 2012); y atributos cognoscitivos centrales (Semetko & Valkenburg, 2000). Por último, se constata la participación y uso del contenido periodístico por parte de la audiencia: número de comentarios y difusión del contenido en Facebook y Twitter. La población de estudio (N=307) se compone de aquellos relatos periodísticos que contienen “desigualdad económica” y que han sido publicados a lo largo de 2018 en elpais.com, elmundo.es, lavanguardia.com, elconfidencial.com, eldiario.es, y lavozgalicia.es. De esta población inicial se configura una muestra probabilística estratificada (n=171). Los resultados de la investigación permiten mostrar las relaciones que se establecen entre las diferentes dimensiones de estudio partiendo de diferentes hipótesis que relacionan la cobertura de la problemática con la capacidad de los medios de dominar la conceptualización de la desigualdad económica, los encuadres desde los que se aborda y su capacidad de diseminar sus relatos periodísticos a través de las redes sociales.

description: The construction of general derivative self-interactions for a massive Proca field relies on the well-known condition for constrained systems of having a degenerate Hessian. The nature of the existing constraints algebra will distinguish among different classes of interactions. Proca-Nuevo interactions enjoy a non-trivial constraint by mixing terms of various order whereas Generalized Proca interactions satisfy the degeneracy condition order by order for each individual Lagrangians. In both cases the vector field propagates at most three degrees of freedom. It has been shown that the scattering amplitudes of Proca-Nuevo arising at the tree level always differ from those of the Generalized Proca, implying their genuinely different nature and a lack of relation by local field redefinitions. In this work, we show the quantum stability of the Proca-Nuevo theory below a specific UV cut-off. Although Proca-Nuevo and Generalized Proca are different inherently in their classical structure, both have the same high energy behaviour when quantum corrections are taken into account. The arising counter terms have the exact same structure and scaling. This might indicate that whatever UV completion they may come from, we expect it to be of similar nature.

Complete One-loop Matching of the Type-I Seesaw Model onto the Standard Model Effective Field Theory

description: In this paper, we accomplish the complete one-loop matching of the type-I seesaw model onto the Standard Model Effective Field Theory (SMEFT), by integrating out three heavy Majorana neutrinos with the functional approach. It turns out that only 31 dimension-six operators (barring flavor structures and Hermitian conjugates) in the Warsaw basis of the SMEFT can be obtained, and most of them appear at the one-loop level. The Wilson coefficients of these 31 dimension-six operators are computed up to $\mathcal{O}\left( M^{-2}\right)$ with $M$ being the mass scale of heavy Majorana neutrinos. As the effects of heavy Majorana neutrinos are encoded in the Wilson coefficients of these higher-dimensional operators, a complete one-loop matching is useful to explore the low-energy phenomenological consequences of the type-I seesaw model. In addition, the threshold corrections to the couplings in the Standard Model and to the coefficient of the dimension-five operator are also discussed.

VOODB: A Generic Discrete-Event Random Simulation Model to Evaluate the Performances of OODBs
Creators: name: Darmont, Jérôme
name: Schneider, Michel
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2007
Subjects: subject: Databases (cs.DB)
subject: FOS: Computer and information sciences

description: Performance of object-oriented database systems (OODBs) is still an issue to both designers and users nowadays. The aim of this paper is to propose a generic discrete-event random simulation model, called VOODB, in order to evaluate the performances of OODBs in general, and the performances of optimization methods like clustering in particular. Such optimization methods undoubtedly improve the performances of OODBs. Yet, they also always induce some kind of overhead for the system. Therefore, it is important to evaluate their exact impact on the overall performances. VOODB has been designed as a generic discrete-event random simulation model by putting to use a modelling approach, and has been validated by simulating the behavior of the O2 OODB and the Texas persistent object store. Since our final objective is to compare object clustering algorithms, some experiments have also been conducted on the DSTC clustering technique, which is implemented in Texas. To validate VOODB, performance results obtained by simulation for a given experiment have been compared to the results obtained by benchmarking the real systems in the same conditions. Benchmarking and simulation performance evaluations have been observed to be consistent, so it appears that simulation can be a reliable approach to evaluate the performances of OODBs.
Forest vegetation of west-central Vancouver Island, British Columbia
Creators: name: Gagnon, Daniel
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: The objective of this study was to quantitatively describe the structure, composition and ecological relationships of old-growth forests of west-central Vancouver Island. Data were obtained by sampling 172 plots, at elevations up to 1000 m, located within thirteen drainage areas. Hypothesized relationships between vegetation and environmental variation were examined using gradient analysis and multivariate methods. Successive reciprocal averaging ordination of the vegetation data led to the recognition of six vegetation groups (floodplain, subalpine, Pinus contorta, Pseudotsuga, Thuja, Abies) and twenty-three community types. Data from the tree, sapling, seedling, shrub, herb and bryophyte-lichen strata were used. Vegetation groups are differentiated along macro-climatic and soil parent material gradients. The vegetation of the Pseudotsuga group, dominant inland, appears to respond to gradients of elevation and soil moisture. The Thuja group is found only near the coast, and its vegetation varies along gradients of soil nutrients and elevation; soil moisture having little effect. The vegetation patterns of the Abies group are correlated to elevation and soil moisture. Canonical variates analyses revealed a close relationship between vegetational and environmental patterns within most vegetation groups. A precipitation continentality gradient was identified as the major determinant of modal vegetation variation. Along this gradient, alpha and beta diversity increased towards the drier and more continental interior as predicted. Tree size-class distribution data indicate that Pseudotsuga menziesii is a seral species in most community types. The dominance of Thuja plicata near the coast may be maintained because of its longevity and, possibly, its wind damage resistance. Attention is drawn to the ecological mechanisms operating in coastal forests which have important implications for their successful management.

description: El asunto de la formación , y particularmente de la formación de la infancia , desde el punto de vista histórico, ha tenido diversas lecturas, siempre en atención a la educación del ser humano y al sentido de su existencia. En términos generales, la diversidad de visiones de tal formación integra filosofía, ontología y cultura. En este tiempo, debatir sobre un tipo de formación tiene una centralidad de tipo antropológico: la vuelta a lo humano del ser humano. Partiendo de ideas generales sobre el tema de la formación de la infancia en Venezuela se analizarán algunos enunciados del educador decimonónico Amenodoro Urdaneta, plasmadas en su libro El libro de la infancia, por un amigo de los niños. Tres son las conclusiones esenciales de la investigación: a) la emergencia de estudiar la formación de la infancia como itinerario discursivo histórico-cultural; b) las oportunidades que se ofrecen en Venezuela para el estudio de la formación de la infancia como acontecimiento en las ideas pedagógicas desde el siglo XVIII hasta los momentos actuales, con énfasis en el siglo XIX yc) la versión de formación de la infancia en Amenodoro Urdaneta, centrada en las virtudes y en los sentimientos.

description: In this paper we report on the Markarian 501 results obtained during our TeV $γ$-ray observations from March 11 to May 12, 2005 and February 28 to May 7, 2006 for 112.5 hours with the TACTIC $γ$-ray telescope. During 2005 observations for 45.7 hours, the source was found to be in a low state and we have placed an upper limit of 4.62 $\times$ 10$^{-12}$ photons cm$^{-2}$ s$^{-1}$ at 3$σ$ level on the integrated TeV $γ$-ray flux above 1 TeV from the source direction. However, during the 2006 observations for 66.8h, detailed data analysis revealed the presence of a TeV $γ$-ray signal from the source with a statistical significance of 7.5$σ$ above $E_γ\geq$ 1 TeV. The time averaged differential energy spectrum of the source in the energy range 1-11 TeV is found to match well with the power law function of the form ($dΦ/dE=f_0 E^{-Γ}$) with $f_0=(1.66\pm0.52)\times 10^{-11}cm^{-2}s^{-1}TeV^{-1}$ and $Γ=2.80\pm0.27$.

description: Here, we report the synthesis and physical properties of Co2FeGe (CFG) Heusler alloy (HA) nanoparticles (NPs). The NPs of size 23 nm are prepared using the co-precipitation method. X-ray and selected area electron diffraction patterns have confirmed the cubic Heusler phase of the NPs with the A2-disorder. These NPs are soft ferromagnetic, and exhibit a high saturation magnetization (Ms) along with a very high Curie temperature (Tc) of 1060 K. The observed Tc value matches closely with the theoretically calculated one following a model provided by Wurmehl et al. [1]. The high Ms and Tc make the present system a potential candidate for magnetically activated nano-devices working at high temperatures. The near-integral value 5.9 mehoB/f.u. of Ms at low temperatures indicates that the half-metallic ferromagnetism is preserved even in the particles even on the 20 nm length scale. Additionally, we have facilitated the existing HA-NP preparation method, which can be used in synthesizing other HA-NPs. The first-principles density functional theory computations complement the experimental results.

description: Charge transport in organic semiconductors is notoriously extremely sensitive to the presence of disorder, both internal and external (i.e. related to the interactions with the dielectric layer), especially for n-type materials. Internal dynamic disorder stems from large thermal fluctuations both in intermolecular transfer integrals and (molecular) site energies in weakly interacting van der Waals solids and sources transient localization of the charge carriers. The molecular vibrations that drive transient localization typically operate at low-frequency (< a-few-hundred cm-1), which renders it difficult to assess them experimentally. Hitherto, this has prevented the identification of clear molecular design rules to control and reduce dynamic disorder. In addition, the disorder can also be external, being controlled by the gate insulator dielectric properties. Here we report on a comprehensive study of charge transport in two closely related n-type molecular organic semiconductors using a combination of temperature-dependent inelastic neutron scattering and photoelectron spectroscopy corroborated by electrical measurements, theory and simulations. We provide unambiguous evidence that ad hoc molecular design enables to free the electron charge carriers from both internal and external disorder to ultimately reach band-like electron transport.

description: We introduce a simple set--up corresponding to the matter-wave analogue of impurity atoms embedded in an infinite photonic crystal and interacting with the radiation field. Atoms in a given internal level are trapped in an optical lattice, and play the role of the impurities. Atoms in an untrapped level play the role of the radiation field. The interaction is mediated by means of lasers that couple those levels. By tuning the lasers parameters, it is possible to drive the system through different regimes, and observe phenomena like matter wave superradiance, non-Markovian atom emission, and the appearance of bound atomic states.

description: We describe RAGE, the ``Radiation Adaptive Grid Eulerian'' radiation-hydrodynamics code, including its data structures, its parallelization strategy and performance, its hydrodynamic algorithm(s), its (gray) radiation diffusion algorithm, and some of the considerable amount of verification and validation efforts. The hydrodynamics is a basic Godunov solver, to which we have made significant improvements to increase the advection algorithm's robustness and to converge stiffnesses in the equation of state. Similarly, the radiation transport is a basic gray diffusion, but our treatment of the radiation-material coupling, wherein we converge nonlinearities in a novel manner to allow larger timesteps and more robust behavior, can be applied to any multi-group transport algorithm.

description: In education, open-ended quiz questions have become an important tool for assessing the knowledge of students. Yet, manually preparing such questions is a tedious task, and thus automatic question generation has been proposed as a possible alternative. So far, the vast majority of research has focused on generating the question text, relying on question answering datasets with readily picked answers, and the problem of how to come up with answer candidates in the first place has been largely ignored. Here, we aim to bridge this gap. In particular, we propose a model that can generate a specified number of answer candidates for a given passage of text, which can then be used by instructors to write questions manually or can be passed as an input to automatic answer-aware question generators. Our experiments show that our proposed answer candidate generation model outperforms several baselines.

description: The safe operation of a two-phase heat exchanger can be performed by determining the instability threshold values of power plant parameters. Thus, the power plant parameters must be designed outside these thresholds to avoid undesirable instability. The fluctuations in mass flow and system pressure are undesirable processes, resulting in system failure. In diverse heat transfer distribution, that can lead to burn-out of heat exchanger tubes. Therefore, the maintaining of flow stability in a power plant is of particular relevance. The researchers and engineers can predict the threshold of flow instability with dynamic models validated with experimental records. The phenomenon of dynamic flow instabilities in two-phase flows is an important issue that has high relevance for many industries. The awareness about the triggers and the effects of fluid dynamic instabilities is of great importance in the design and operation of steam generators, refrigeration systems, thermosiphons or boiling water reactors. These instabilities manifest themselves in variations of mass flow, pressure, and fluid properties. In this work, the dynamic instabilities involved in evaporation processes were briefly discussed with simple models to understand the mechanism of its different types. Additionally, it is presented the design and construction of a two-phase flow test rig using the similarity and the scaling criteria. A heat recovery steam generator (HRSG) designed by Doosan Heavy Industries and Construction is scaled down to 4 × 4 × 2 m3. The combination of the flow diagram and the thermohydraulic design is represented in three-dimension model of the test rig using the Siemens NX 10.0 software. The flexibility of operation was taken into account in the design of this test rig. Finally, we provided preliminary results to showcase some functionalities and the capability of the test rig to characterize the existing flow pattern through the evaporator and investigate the internal characteristic curve of the evaporator.
