description: In this research work are approached the relations between science and technology as they emerge from the textbooks of mechanical engineering of the Vocational High School in Greece. The analysis was carried out in the light of theoretical approaches such as didactic transposition, social and professional representations, as well as didactic teaching approach based on socio-scientific questions. The main results show that the linear model, according to which technology is only an applied science as well as the socio-economic model that governs the science - technology - society relationship are the most prevalent in the textbooks analyzed. On the contrary, the occurrences of the interactive model are weak.

title: Design and Analysis of Mobile Agent-Enabled Anomaly Detection and Verification in Wireless Sensor Networks
Creators: name: Usman, Muhammad

Year: 2015
Subjects: subject: Coordinated Resource Management (CRM)
subject: Wireless sensor networks (WSNs)
subject: Mobile agent-enabled anomaly detection

description: The recent significant advancements in microchips, microelectromechanical systems, and microsensing technologies have given birth to a modern networking paradigm, namely, Shared Sensor Networks. Tiny sensor nodes serve as an essential infrastructure to build ap- plications such as the smart home, built infrastructure monitoring, building occupancy moni- toring, traffic monitoring, and environment monitoring as constituents of the above-mentioned networking paradigm. Sensor nodes are, however, susceptible to in situ faults and attacks. Sim- ilarly, sensor readings are vulnerable to in transit errors and attacks. An adequately designed anomaly detection system, as a second line of defense, can timely detect and report anomalies to a user. However, state-of-the-art anomaly detection schemes are not able to accurately iden- tify the source of anomalies. Their sole focus is merely on the detection of anomalies. The identification of the source of anomalies is imperative for their effective mitigation. This study has introduced a novel mobile agent-based in situ verification service which can identify the source of anomalies after their detection. A mobile-agent enabled anomaly detection and verification system, with its internal structure and algorithmic specifications, is presented for Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs). The proposed system enables mobile agents to use information which is obtained through a Coordinated Resource Management (CRM) mechanism to perform an in situ diagnosis of sensor nodes. The CRM mechanism enables sensor nodes to share their resource status with corresponding cluster leaders or a base station for network resource management. In addition to traditional network resource management, our hypothesis is to employ the CRM-based information to detect several types of anomalies which are caused by erroneous values of sensor readings and battery status. One of the objectives of the proposed anomaly detection and verification system is to maximize the use of the received CRM-based observations for the anomaly detection purpose. The statistical association among different features of interest is, therefore, exploited to detect different natures of anomalies which are caused by denial of sleep attacks, sensor node faults, and resource exhaustion attacks. The proposed system further uses the information received from CRM-based observations to verify the source of anomalies using mobile agents.
Approaching change of state in early childhood education: the design of a teaching intervention based on storytelling

description: Eliciting preschool children’s ideas in research, generally, and in science, particularly, necessitates the utilization of suitable methods that contribute to empowering children to share their ideas and experiences. In this paper we propose and discuss the potential of a research-based teaching intervention designed to foster preschool children’s understanding of change of state and build a precursor model of melting and freezing. The proposed teaching intervention is based on the idea that storytelling provides a meaningful context for children, using a language within their experience. It also suggests to engage the children into drawing activities at various steps of the intervention, considering that drawing is a powerful tool to support children’s expression of ideas in science and follow the development of such ideas. The paper discusses the possibilities that emerge from the proposed teaching intervention for the learning of scientific concepts, and in particular, the choices made to link storytelling, drawing activities and discussions with the children.

description: A recently introduced concept of complexity for relativistic fluids is extended to the vacuum solutions represented by the Bondi metric. A complexity hierarchy is established, ranging from the Minkowski spacetime (the simplest one) to gravitationally radiating systems (the more complex). Particularly interesting is the possibility to differentiate between natural non--radiative (NNRS) and non--natural non--radiative (NNNRS) systems, the latter appearing to be simpler than the former. The relationship between vorticity and the degree of complexity is stressed.

description: Diffusion phenomena in a multiple component lattice Boltzmann Equation (LBE) model are discussed in detail. The mass fluxes associated with different mechanical driving forces are obtained using a Chapman-Enskog analysis. This model is found to have correct diffusion behavior and the multiple diffusion coefficients are obtained analytically. The analytical results are further confirmed by numerical simulations in a few solvable limiting cases. The LBE model is established as a useful computational tool for the simulation of mass transfer in fluid systems with external forces.

Subjects: Early science teaching, children’s ideas, elicitation, teachers’ beliefs and practices

description: This study investigated a) how teachers view children’s ideas in science, b) if and how they elicit young learners' thinking about natural phenomena and concepts, and c) what is the meaning and the purpose of elicitation for the teachers. Α two-phase mixed-method was implemented with 15 kindergarten teachers including a) drafting a lesson plan for teaching a science concept, and b) in-depth interviews. The results indicated that although the participants value elicitation practices in early science for various and important reasons and state that they implement elicitation practices in their curriculum, they seem uncertain about how to incorporate the information they derive from elicitation in their science curriculum.

Creators: name: Senadeera, Dayani
Publisher: name: Griffith University
Year: 2017
Subjects: subject: Anti-infective compounds
subject: Myrtaceae

description: This thesis reports on the chemistry and anti-infective activity of the flowering plant family Myrtaceae (a family whose members dominate the Australian landscape). To understand the significance and importance of the Myrtaceae family from a phytochemical and medical perspective, a systematic literature review was carried out. The conclusion from this review was that the family is a major source of [beta]-triketone, phloroglucinol, and volatile terpene natural products with the [beta]-triketones in particular being a major focus of recent research. Over hundred new compounds from this class, many of which possess novel ring systems, have been reported in the last ten years. Furthermore their chemical diversity is matched with their high biological activity, most notably anti-infective activities including antiplasmodial, antibacterial and antiviral being reported for these compounds. All the findings of the literature review are documented in Chapter 2 of this thesis. As a result of this review the experimental research carried out in this dissertation focused on the antiplasmodial and antibacterial activity of natural product constituents isolated from the flowers of three Australian Myrtaceae plant species, Corymbia intermedia, C. torelliana, and Angophora woodsiana collected from South East Queensland. These plants were chosen because of the literature precedent for Corymbia species to be a major source of bioactive [beta]-triketones and although Angophora species have not previously been investigated their close taxonomic relationship to the Corymbia suggested that they would likely be an additional source of [beta]-triketone constituents. A total of 24 [beta]-triketone compounds, 14 of which are new, were isolated from methanol extracts of flowers of these three species. [...]

description: In recent years there has been an emerging interest in PDE-like flows defined on finite graphs, with applications in clustering and image segmentation. In particular for image segmentation and semi-supervised learning Bertozzi and Flenner (2012) developed an algorithm based on the Allen-Cahn gradient flow of a graph Ginzburg-Landau functional, and Merkurjev, Kostić and Bertozzi (2013) devised a variant algorithm based instead on graph Merriman-Bence-Osher (MBO) dynamics. This work offers rigorous justification for this use of the MBO scheme in place of Allen-Cahn flow. First, we choose the double-obstacle potential for the Ginzburg-Landau functional, and derive well-posedness and regularity results for the resulting graph Allen-Cahn flow. Next, we exhibit a "semi-discrete" time-discretisation scheme for Allen-Cahn flow of which the MBO scheme is a special case. We investigate the long-time behaviour of this scheme, and prove its convergence to the Allen-Cahn trajectory as the time-step vanishes. Finally, following a question raised by Van Gennip, Guillen, Osting and Bertozzi (2014), we exhibit results towards proving a link between double-obstacle Allen-Cahn flow and mean curvature flow on graphs. We show some promising $Γ$-convergence results, and translate to the graph setting two comparison principles used by Chen and Elliott (1994) to prove the analogous link in the continuum.

Subjects: subject: Cryptography and Security (cs.CR)

description: The rising complexity of cyber threats calls for a comprehensive reassessment of current security frameworks in business environments. This research focuses on Stealth Data Exfiltration, a significant cyber threat characterized by covert infiltration, extended undetectability, and unauthorized dissemination of confidential data. Our findings reveal that conventional defense-in-depth strategies often fall short in combating these sophisticated threats, highlighting the immediate need for a shift in information risk management across businesses. The evolving nature of cyber threats, driven by advancements in techniques such as social engineering, multi-vector attacks, and Generative AI, underscores the need for robust, adaptable, and comprehensive security strategies. As we navigate this complex landscape, it is crucial to anticipate potential threats and continually update our defenses. We propose a shift from traditional perimeter-based, prevention-focused models, which depend on a static attack surface, to a more dynamic framework that prepares for inevitable breaches. This suggested model, known as MESA 2.0 Security Model, prioritizes swift detection, immediate response, and ongoing resilience, thereby enhancing an organizations ability to promptly identify and neutralize threats, significantly reducing the consequences of security breaches. This study suggests that businesses adopt a forward-thinking and adaptable approach to security management to stay ahead of the ever-changing cyber threat landscape.

description: Supported single-site platinum hydride compounds are promising heterogeneous catalysts for organic transformations. Few methods exist to describe the structures of single-site Pt catalysts with atomic resolution because of their disordered structures and low Pt loadings. Here, we study the compounds formed when bis(tri-tert-butylphosphino)platinum, Pt(PtBu3)2, is supported on dehydroxylated SiO2 or SiO2-Al2O3. First, we obtain magic angle spinning (MAS) 1H, 31P and 195Pt ssNMR spectra of four model Pt phosphine compounds with oxidation states of 0 or +2 and coordination numbers between 2 and 4. These compounds are analogs of potential structures present in the supported compounds. MAS 195Pt ssNMR spectra were obtained using 31P{195Pt} sideband selective J-resolved and J-HMQC experiments. The measured 1H and 31P chemical shifts, 31P-195Pt J-couplings and 195Pt chemical shift (CS) tensors are shown to be diagnostic of oxidation state and coordination number. Room temperature 1H ssNMR spectra of Pt(PtBu3)2 supported on SiO2 or SiO2-Al2O3 show diagnostic hydride NMR signals, suggesting that Pt(PtBu3)2 undergoes oxidative addition, resulting in surface hydrides and Pt–oxygen bonds to the support surface. MAS dynamic nuclear polarization (DNP) enables 31P{195Pt} correlation NMR experiments on the supported compounds. These experiments enable the measurement of the 31P-195Pt J-coupling constants and 195Pt CS tensors. Combined NMR and DFT analyses suggest that the primary surface platinum species are [HPt(PtBu3)2OSi] on SiO2 and [HPt(PtBu3)2]+[Si-O--Al] on SiO2-Al2O3. The Pt-oxygen bond length is dependent on the support and estimated as 2.1-2.3 Å and 2.7-3.0 Å for SiO2 and SiO2-Al2O3, respectively.

description: The purpose of the current study is to investigate how organizational resources and capabilities affect corporate environmental strategy (CES) and performance based on an extended natural resource-based view (NRBV). In contrast with existing studies showing only partial relationships, such as the relationship between CES and firm performance, the current study investigates comprehensive relationships among core NRBV variables and develops an integrated model by combining a resource-based view (RBV), NRBV and competitive advantage theory. The NRBV, as an extension of Barney’s (1991) RBV, is the first model to advocate the importance of corporate capabilities with natural environmental consideration (Hart, 1995). However, this NRBV does not explicitly address the role of corporate proactive environmental strategy (PES) as a determinant of performance. To differentiate the current study with existing studies focusing on the relationship between PES and performance, the current study investigates the driving forces of PES in the nexus of the PES-performance. Further, it examines performance from both environmental and financial perspectives. As such, the model in this thesis identifies six key variables which include (i) organizational resources, (ii) organizational capabilities, (iii) PES, (iv) competitive advantage, (v) environmental performance, and (vi) financial performance. The current study used model comparison techniques and identified a two-tier structure of factors which are associated with organizational resources and capabilities before investigating causality. For the empirical analysis, the current study employed the structural equation modeling (SEM) using from participants in Korean manufacturing.

description: In Alain Connes noncommutative geometry, the question of the existence of a non-trivial integral can be described in terms of the singular traceability of the compact operator |D|^(-d), D being the Dirac operator, namely of the existence of a finite non-trivial singular trace on the ideal generated by |D|^(-d). A condition on the non triviality of the Dixmier logarithmic trace on the above mentioned ideal has been given by Connes in terms of the cohomological dimension of the Chern character of the phase of D. In this paper we show that, under suitable regularity conditions on the eigenvalue sequence of |D|, the dimension d can be uniquely determined by imposing that |D|^(-d) is singularly traceable, thus providing a geometric measure theoretic definition for d. More precisely, defining d as the inverse of the polynomial order of |D|^(-1), the operator |D|^(-d) always produces a singular trace which gives rise to a non-trivial integration procedure, even when the logarithmic trace fails. In the second part of the paper we discuss large scale counterparts of the geometric measure theoretic dimension for the case of covering manifolds. We prove that in the case of the coverings studied by Atiyah, the inverse of the polynomial order at 0 of Delta_p^(-1/2), defined via the Atiyah trace, coincides with the Novikov-Shubin number alpha_p. As a consequence, Novikov- Shubin numbers can be considered as (asymptotic) dimensions in the sense of geometric measure theory, since the corresponding power of Delta_p^(-1/2) produces a singular trace. Generalizations of the mentioned results on covering manifolds to the case of open manifolds with bounded geometry are studied in math/9809040

description: Causality extraction from natural language texts is a challenging open problem in artificial intelligence. Existing methods utilize patterns, constraints, and machine learning techniques to extract causality, heavily depending on domain knowledge and requiring considerable human effort and time for feature engineering. In this paper, we formulate causality extraction as a sequence labeling problem based on a novel causality tagging scheme. On this basis, we propose a neural causality extractor with the BiLSTM-CRF model as the backbone, named SCITE (Self-attentive BiLSTM-CRF wIth Transferred Embeddings), which can directly extract cause and effect without extracting candidate causal pairs and identifying their relations separately. To address the problem of data insufficiency, we transfer contextual string embeddings, also known as Flair embeddings, which are trained on a large corpus in our task. In addition, to improve the performance of causality extraction, we introduce a multihead self-attention mechanism into SCITE to learn the dependencies between causal words. We evaluate our method on a public dataset, and experimental results demonstrate that our method achieves significant and consistent improvement compared to baselines.

description: Wh-phrases in English can appear both raised and in-situ. However, only in-situ wh-phrases can take semantic scope beyond the immediately enclosing clause. I present a denotational semantics of interrogatives that naturally accounts for these two properties. It neither invokes movement or economy, nor posits lexical ambiguity between raised and in-situ occurrences of the same wh-phrase. My analysis is based on the concept of continuations. It uses a novel type system for higher-order continuations to handle wide-scope wh-phrases while remaining strictly compositional. This treatment sheds light on the combinatorics of interrogatives as well as other kinds of so-called A'-movement.

description: Communities on GitHub often use issue labels as a way of triaging issues by assigning them priority ratings based on how urgently they should be addressed. The labels used are determined by the repository contributors and not standardised by GitHub. This makes it difficult for priority-related reasoning across repositories for both researchers and contributors. Previous work shows interest in how issues are labelled and what the consequences for those labels are. For instance, some previous work has used clustering models and natural language processing to categorise labels without a particular emphasis on priority. With this publication, we introduce a unique data set of 812 manually categorised labels pertaining to priority; normalised and ranked as low-, medium-, or high-priority. To provide an example of how this data set could be used, we have created a tool for GitHub contributors that will create a list of the highest priority issues from the repositories to which they contribute. We have released the data set and the tool for anyone to use on Zenodo because we hope that this will help the open source community address high-priority issues more effectively and inspire other uses.

Everyday Fascism in Contemporary Japan

Publisher: name: Columbia University
Year: 2013
Subjects: Ethnology
Asians

description: This dissertation uses the concept of fascism in order to examine the socio-culture of contemporary Japan. Defined in terms of its commodity structure, fascism turns out to be a relevant concept to Japan not only prior to and during the Asia-Pacific War (1931-1945) but also from the postwar days to date. Against various forms of culturalism that claim that the country is essentially totalitarian and its culture is innately violent, I will argue that the country has shared fascist conditions with those other countries and regions that operate in the mode of mechanical reproduction. While the overall mode of mass-reproduction has been further articulated by different moments, such as late capitalism or post-modernism, the cultural and political condition of reducing singular lives and events into standardized forms has continued in these countries and regions roughly since the 1920s. My view will expand the horizon of studies of fascism, which has hitherto been limited to Europe between the two World Wars. At the same time, the view of fascism's generality should not be blind to local inflections and historical specificities. In this dissertation, I will examine such trans-war Japanese institutions as the ideologies of emperorship, formation of the petty bourgeois class, and corporatist organizations of gender and locality. My dissertation will ethnographically investigate the way in which these institutions have interacted with the country's modern capitalist everyday to result in fascist violence. The specific sites in which my ethnographies take place are the contemporary Tokyo and Yokohama suburbs (Chapters 1 and 3) and the Yasukuni Shinto Shrine in Tokyo (Chapters 2 and 4), among others. These ethnographies will elucidate how the categories of class, gender, and generation crisscross everyday pleasures and anxieties of commodification. Lastly and not least importantly, another historically specific element of postwar Japanese fascism is memories and traces of its prewar violence exercised on other Asians and Pacific Islanders. The problem of ill mourning seems to critically ground the postwar Japanese formation of fascist potentialities. The last chapter will discuss contemporary Japanese efforts for mourning and the accompanying issue of ethics.

description: In systems removed from equilibrium, intrinsic microscopic fluctuations become correlated over distances comparable to the characteristic macroscopic length over which the external constraint is exerted. In order to investigate this phenomenon, we construct a microscopic model with simple stochastic dynamics using lattice gas automaton rules that satisfy local detailed balance. Because of the simplicity of the automaton dynamics, analytical theory can be developed to describe the space and time evolution of the density fluctuations. The exact equations for the pair correlations are solved explicitly in the hydrodynamic limit. In this limit, we rigorously derive the results obtained phenomenologically by fluctuating hydrodynamics. In particular, the spatial algebraic decay of the equal-time fluctuation correlations predicted by this theory is found to be in excellent agreement with the results of our lattice gas automaton simulations for two different types of boundary conditions. Long-range correlations of the type described here appear generically in dynamical systems that exhibit large scale anisotropy and lack detailed balance.

description: Critical to the construction of large scale quantum networks, i.e. a quantum internet, is the development of fast algorithms for managing entanglement present in the network. One fundamental building block for a quantum internet is the distribution of Bell pairs between distant nodes in the network. Here we focus on the problem of transforming multipartite entangled states into the tensor product of bipartite Bell pairs between specific nodes using only a certain class of local operations and classical communication. In particular we study the problem of deciding whether a given graph state, and in general a stabilizer state, can be transformed into a set of Bell pairs on specific vertices using only single-qubit Clifford operations, single-qubit Pauli measurements and classical communication. We prove that this problem is NP-Complete.

description: We use a design workbook of speculative scenarios as a values elicitation activity with 14 participants. The workbook depicts use case scenarios with smart home camera technologies that involve surveillance and uneven power relations. The scenarios were initially designed by the researchers to explore scenarios of privacy and surveillance within three social relationships involving "primary" and "non-primary" users: Parents-Children, Landlords-Tenants, and Residents-Domestic Workers. When the scenarios were utilized as part of a values elicitation activity with participants, we found that they reflected on a broader set of interconnected social values beyond privacy and surveillance, including autonomy and agency, physical safety, property rights, trust and accountability, and fairness. The paper suggests that future research about ethical issues in smart homes should conceptualize privacy as interconnected with a broader set of social values (which can align or be in tension with privacy), and reflects on considerations for doing research with non-primary users.

description: Hierarchical concepts have proven useful in many classical and learning-based optical flow methods regarding both accuracy and robustness. In this paper we show that such concepts are still useful in the context of recent neural networks that follow RAFT’s paradigm refraining from hierarchical strategies by relying on recurrent updates based on a single-scale all-pairs transform. To this end, we introduce MS-RAFT+: a novel recurrent multi-scale architecture based on RAFT that unifies several successful hierarchical concepts. It employs a coarse-to-fine estimation to enable the use of finer resolutions by useful initializations from coarser scales. Moreover, it relies on RAFT’s correlation pyramid that allows to consider non-local cost information during the matching process. Furthermore, it makes use of advanced multi-scale features that incorporate high-level information from coarser scales. And finally, our method is trained subject to a sample-wise robust multi-scale multi-iteration loss that closely supervises each iteration on each scale, while allowing to discard particularly difficult samples. In combination with an appropriate mixed-dataset training strategy, our method performs favorably. It not only yields highly accurate results on the four major benchmarks (KITTI 2015, MPI Sintel, Middlebury and VIPER), it also allows to achieve these results with a single model and a single parameter setting. Our trained model and code are available at https://github.com/cv-stuttgart/MS_RAFT_plus .

description: Suppose B is the unital algebra consisting of the algebraic product of full matrix algebras over an index set X. A bijection is set up between the equivalence classes of irreducible representations of B as operators on a Banach space and the sigma-complete ultrafilters on X, Theorem 1. Therefore, if X has less than measurable cardinality (e.g. accessible), the equivalence classes of the irreducible representations of B are labeled by points of X, and all representations of B are described, Theorem 3.

description: We report the first measurement of the temperature dependence of muon transfer rate from $μ$p atoms to oxygen between 100 and 300 K. Data were obtained from the X-ray spectra of delayed events in gaseous target H$_2$/O$_2$ exposed to a muon beam. Based on the data, we determined the muon transfer energy dependence up to 0.1 eV, showing an 8-fold increase in contrast with the predictions of constant rate in the low energy limit. This work set constraints on theoretical models of muon transfer, and is of fundamental importance for the measurement of the hyperfine splitting of $μ$p by the FAMU collaboration.

description: This paper presents the SAGT Turkish-German code-switching treebank, and observations and annotation challenges we encountered during its development. The treebank consists of transcriptions of bilingual conversations annotated with several layers: language IDs, lemmas, POS tags, morphological features, and dependency relations. The annotations follow the Universal Dependencies annotation scheme and the conventions used in monolingual treebanks as much as possible. We present and discuss a number of issues that arise because of the need for consistent multilingual annotation within a single treebank, as well as the informal language, which is where code-switching is observed most. Besides proposing solutions to these issues, we present some observations about code-switching phenomena that are only possible to observe in a data set with rich linguistic annotation. The treebank was annotated with a focus on quality of annotations through an iterative process of detecting and correcting annotation errors. We also present quantitative measures for indication of annotation quality. The code-switching treebank created in this study is released to the public through Universal Dependencies repositories.
