description: Booter services continue to provide popular DDoS-as-a-service platforms and enable anyone irrespective of their technical ability, to execute DDoS attacks with devastating impact. Since booters are a serious threat to Internet operations and can cause significant financial and reputational damage, they also draw the attention of law enforcement agencies and related counter activities. In this paper, we investigate booter-based DDoS attacks in the wild and the impact of an FBI takedown targeting 15 booter websites in December 2018 from the perspective of a major IXP and two ISPs. We study and compare attack properties of multiple booter services by launching Gbps-level attacks against our own infrastructure. To understand spatial and temporal trends of the DDoS traffic originating from booters we scrutinize 5 months, worth of inter-domain traffic. We observe that the takedown only leads to a temporary reduction in attack traffic. Additionally, one booter was found to quickly continue operation by using a new domain for its website.

description: Three-jet production is studied for the first time in deep-inelastic positron-proton scattering. The measurement carried out with the H1 detector at HERA covers a large range of four-momentum transfer squared 5 < Q^2 < 5000 GeV^2 and invariant three-jet masses 25 < M_(3jet) < 140 GeV. Jets are defined by the inclusive k_T algorithm in the Breit frame. The size of the three-jet cross section and the ratio of the three-jet to the dijet cross section R_(3/2) are described over the whole phase space by the predictions of perturbative QCD in next-to-leading order. The shapes of angular jet distributions deviate significantly from a uniform population of the available phase space but are well described by the QCD calculation.

description: Agricultural product and input prices have been on a rollercoaster for the last three years, impacting not only market incentives for production worldwide, but also access to food for consumers, especially those in low income brackets in developing countries. Both of these impacts have been studied by international institutions, which have analyzed price transmission and generated food security indicators. However, there is another important aspect that needs to be analyzed, the impact of this price variability on agricultural incomes, which is addressed in this technical note. It is shown how, with very simple calculations and using current national accounts, it is possible to obtain indicators of change in the income of the factors of production in agriculture by making adjustments in production volumes and in real agricultural prices. This can be very useful in designing policies, but further analysis is required of how agricultural performance,income generation and poverty alleviation are linked (Valdes et al. 2008).

description: A Andrographis paniculata candy was formulated using Andrographis paniculata extract, sugar, and other excipients. The candy was evaluated for its physicochemical properties, phytochemical content, and antimicrobial activity. The results showed that the candy had a smooth texture, moderate hardness, and significant antimicrobial activity against various microorganisms. The candy's phytochemical analysis revealed the presence of andrographolide, a major bioactive compound of Andrographis paniculata . This study suggests that the formulated Andrographis paniculata candy is a convenient and effective dosage form for delivering the herbal remedy.

Keywords: Andrographis paniculata, herbal candy, phytochemical analysis.

description: This article presents the development strategy adopted at the First National Conference on Sustainable and Participatory Rural Development (CNDRSS). The objective of the conference was to lay the groundwork for a new national, sustainable and participatory rural development policy, adopting a strategic approach that recognized the importance of social actors. As important as the immediate results was the fact that a process designed to mobilize and sensitize the social actors and state entities involved, and ensure that both take part in the development of the policy, was institutionalized. Nearly 30,000 people participated in the initiative by means of 230 territorial, inter-municipal and municipal conferences, as well as other conferences held in Brazil’s 26 states and in the Federal District. The national policy proposed by the conference was the result of a prolonged, complex and exhaustive process of social construction. This article also explains the role of IICA’s Forum on Sustainable Rural Development (SRD) and highlights the challenges involved in implementing the results of the conference.

description: Pronoun resolution is a major area of natural language understanding. However, large-scale training sets are still scarce, since manually labelling data is costly. In this work, we introduce WikiCREM (Wikipedia CoREferences Masked) a large-scale, yet accurate dataset of pronoun disambiguation instances. We use a language-model-based approach for pronoun resolution in combination with our WikiCREM dataset. We compare a series of models on a collection of diverse and challenging coreference resolution problems, where we match or outperform previous state-of-the-art approaches on 6 out of 7 datasets, such as GAP, DPR, WNLI, PDP, WinoBias, and WinoGender. We release our model to be used off-the-shelf for solving pronoun disambiguation.

Plant invasions represent a significant threat to the structure and function of natural ecosystems. Garlic mustard (Alliaria petiolata) has been identified as a threat to native communities mostly through small-scale studies and focused experiments. In this in situ observational study I examined the effects of garlic mustard invasion on species composition across multiple sites by comparing plant diversity and composition in invaded and adjacent non-invaded communities. Mean Shannon diversity was higher in invaded compared to non-invaded plots and invasion was associated with greater densities of invasive species such as burning bush (Euonymus alatus), and greater celandine (Chelidonium majus). In ordination space, the sites grouped more closely by geographic region than by invasion status, suggesting that regional environmental variation is important for community structure. My findings indicate that garlic mustard invasion is associated with other invasive plants, and that the understory plant community varies considerably across the region regardless of invasion status. Overall we show that community structure in garlic mustard invaded forest understories is not consistent across the landscape.
Buddhist Depiction of Life in the Verse of the Tang Dynasty Poet Han Shan

description: The present works of reading Chinese poetry offers a biographic reading method, but it cannot fit for reading Han Shan’s poetry, as he had unclear recording in history. Focused on exploring the persona and religion in Han Shan’s poetry world, I examine reading Han Shan’s poems in Buddhist way. Chapter 1 provides the biography of Han Shan, and presents his vernacular expression as different from other poets in history. Chapter 2 introduces some new methods on reading poetry brought up by some literature critics. Chapter 3 presents the Buddhist reading method that I have adopted to read and understand Han Shan’s poems. This reading method is inspired by the similarity between Han Shan’s writings and Buddhist texts. Chapter 4 explains how to read Han Shan’s poems in the Buddhist way. In this chapter, I analyze the persona and Buddhist thinking in the world of Han Shan’s poetry with the explanation of Buddhist sutras and literatures.

description: The transit method is biased toward short orbital period planets that are interior to their host star's Habitable Zone (HZ). These planets are particularly interesting from the perspective of exploring runaway greenhouse scenarios and the possibility of potential Venus analogs. Here, we conduct an analysis of predicted TESS planet yield estimates produced by Huang et al. (2018), as well as the TESS Object of Interest (TOI) list resulting from the observations of sectors 1 - 13 during Cycle 1 of the TESS primary mission. In our analysis we consider potential terrestrial planets that lie within their host star's Venus Zone (Kane et al. 2014). These requirements are then applied to a predicted planetary yield from the TESS primary mission (Huang et al. 2018) and the TOI list, which results in an estimated 259 Venus analogs by the end of the TESS primary mission, and 46 Venus analogs in the TOI list for sectors 1 - 13. We also calculate the estimated transmission spectroscopy signal-to-noise ratio (S/N) for Venus analogs from the predicted yield and TOI list if they were to be observed by the Near-Infrared Imager and Slitless Spectrograph (NIRISS) on the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), as well as update the S/N cutoff values determined by Kempton et al. (2018). Our findings show that the best estimated Venus analogs and TOI Venus analogs with $R_{p} < 1.5 \, R_\odot$ have an estimated transmission spectroscopy S/N $> 40$ while planets with radii $2 \, R_\oplus < R_p < 4 \, R_\oplus$ can achieve S/N $> 100$

Intervening in the Lives of Internally Displaced People in Colombia
Creators: name: Carbone, Amy L
Publisher: name: University of Massachusetts Amherst
Year: 2016

description: Over the past fifty years, civil war has held a relentless grip on Colombia. Aside from the staggering numbers of casualties that have resulted, millions have been internally displaced and unwilling to return home. Many are fleeing from forced military recruitment of youths, sexual violence, kidnapping and murder. After Syria, Colombia has one of the highest populations of Internally Displaced People (IDP): 5,841,040, as of December 2015. It is unknown how many more refugees are not officially registered. The majority of the IDP population migrates from rural villages and towns to large cities, such as Bogotá and Medellín, where there are opportunities for safety, income and improvised shelter.
Referencing existing models for Colombian housing and shelter for IDPs and street kids, this research examines the needs of the displaced population and creates a set of criteria for a long-term, integrative housing solution. This thesis focuses on internally displaced youths and women in the Southern-Pacific region of Colombia, as they make up the largest portion of registered IDPs and refugees in Colombia. The goal of the project is to design the user’s progression through a system of increasingly supportive levels: “Entrance to the shelter,” “Full-time residence,” “Reintegration to society.” The site and program encourage commensalism, or relationship where one part benefits from the other without causing harm, with the surrounding community. This thesis also references studies of community-based design, low-cost and sustainable housing, transitional shelters, and homeless communities.

description: We analyze the performance of quantum annealing as formulated by Lechner, Hauke, and Zoller (LHZ), by which a Hamiltonian with all-to-all two-body interactions is reduced to a corresponding Hamiltonian with local many-body interactions. Mean-field analyses show that problematic first-order quantum phase transitions that exist in the original LHZ formulation can be avoided, and thus an exponential speedup is achieved, if we drive the coefficient of the many-body term, which represents the constraint, non-linearly as a function of time. This result applies not only to a simple ferromagnetic model but also to the spin glass problem if a parameter in the spin glass model is chosen appropriately.

description: This paper describes various experiences and approaches related to the creation of agrifood chains and suggests the need to develop a new institutional framework and forms of technical cooperation to strengthen the agricultural and rural sector. It is hoped that agrifood chains will serve as mechanisms for dialogue and as management tools to promote competitiveness and support decision-making, in line with the demands of IICA’s Member States. With this in mind, this document defines the nature of the agrifood chains and describes the characteristics conferred by their economic and social actors, through the participation of all the links. It also describes the consensus-building bodies, specifically the “chain committees,” as well as the functions and features of the “chain secretariat,” which are essential to the success of the committees and the operation of the chains. This paper also considers the need to redefine the functions of the ministries of agriculture, so that these institutions serve as agents that connect the public - private sectors and civil society through agrifood chains, as an appropriate space for finding common ground and permanent solutions for the agricultural and rural sector.

The well known discrepancies between the experimental bandstructure and the Kohn-Sham eigenvalues of Density Functional Theory are almost completely corrected by self-energy effects. Exchange-correlation contributions to the self-energy arising from 3s and 3p core levels are shown to be crucial.

A Consistent Algorithm for Implementing the Space Conservation Law
Creators: name: Pillalamarri Narasimha Rao, Venkata Pavan
Publisher: name: University of Massachusetts Amherst
Year: 2014

description: Fluid flows occurring in moving and/or deforming environments are influenced by the transient nature of their containment. In Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD), simulating such flow fields requires effort to maintain the geometric integrity of the transient flow domain. Convective fluxes in such domains are evaluated with respect to the motion of the boundaries of the control volume. These simulations demand conservation of space in addition to the conservation of mass, momentum and energy as the solution continues in time.
The Space Conservation Law in its continuous form can be inferred by using the rules of fundamental calculus. However, implementing it in a discrete form poses substantial challenges. During mesh motion, the surfaces enclosing the control volumes sweep through three-dimensional space. As per the Space Conservation Law, the change in the control volume has to match the sum of the swept volumes of all its faces exactly. The Space Conservation Law must be satisfied accurately and consistently in order to avoid the occurrence of non-physical masses and to prevent the violation of the continuity equation.
In this work we have attempted to address the consistency issues surrounding the implementation of the Space Conservation Law in OpenFOAM. The existing method for calculation of swept volumes falls short in terms of consistency. Moreover, its capabilities are limited when it comes to complex three-dimensional mesh motions. The existing method of calculation treats swept volumes as net fluxes emanating from cell faces. We have implemented an alternate algorithm in which the swept volumes are treated as intermittent virtual cells whose volumes can be calculated in a unique and consistent manner. We will conclude by validating our approach for mesh motions of varying degrees of complexity.

description: Uruguay is a country with numerous competitive advantages afforded by its natural landscapes and cultural heritage, and has been promoted around the world mainly as a “sun and sand” destination. However, with the impetus of the citizens themselves, rural tourism is becoming a “growing trend” and efforts are now under way to professionalize and position this sector as a major tourism product. This article examines the sector’s legal and institutional framework as well as the main activities encompassed by the concept of rural tourism for the relevant authorities. It also describes the providers of rural tourism services and, finally, offers a brief description of the current status of and outlook for rural tourism in Uruguay.

description: This study has evaluated the technical efficiency of farmers engaged in rice-wheat cropping systems in North-eastern India, who are using Resource-Conserving Technologies (RCTs) such as Zero Tillage (ZT) and Direct Seeded Rice (DSR). These technology promotions are being carried out under the intervention of the Cereal Systems Initiative for South Asia (CSISA) project, primarily funded by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation. The resource-conserving technologies are being promoted as part of conservation agriculture supported by the project. The data used in this study have been derived from the socioeconomic surveys conducted in Eastern Uttar-Pradesh and Bihar in North-eastern India during the kharif season of 2009 and rabi season of 2010. A stochastic frontier analysis was carried out to investigate and compare the determinants of technical efficiency among the farmers receiving intervention and those who are not. The study has revealed that farmers receiving CSISA intervention have realized higher levels of technical efficiency. Additionally, farmers who are receiving subsidies and farmers who are planting more diversified crops have higher levels of technical efficiency.

description: Measuring longitudinally polarized vector boson scattering in the ZZ channel is a promising way to investigate unitarity restoration with the Higgs mechanism and to search for possible new physics. We investigated several deep neural network structures and compared their ability to improve the measurement of the longitudinal fraction Z_L Z_L. Using fast simulation with the Delphes framework, a clear improvement is found using a previously investigated 'particle-based' deep neural network on a preprocessed dataset and applying principle component analysis to the outputs.A significance of around 1.7 standard deviations can be achieved with the integrated luminosity of 3000 fb-1 that will be recorded at the High-Luminosity LHC.

The unprecedented quality and extended spatial coverage of these data enable us to discover six prominent stellar density structures in the disc to a distance of 5 kpc from the Sun. Four of these structures correspond to the spiral arms detected previously in the gas and young stars (Scutum-Centaurus, Sagittarius, Local and Perseus). The remaining two are associated with the main resonances of the Milky Way bar where corotation is placed at around 6.2 kpc and the outer Lindblad resonance beyond the Solar radius, at around 9 kpc. For the first time we provide evidence of the imprint left by spiral arms and resonances in the stellar densities not relying on a specific tracer, through enhancing the signatures left by these asymmetries. Our method offers new avenues for studying how the stellar populations in our Galaxy are shaped.

description: In the recent years there has been considerable emphasis on understanding the regional dimensions of economic growth in India within the convergence implications of neoclassical growth paradigm. The study has tested the convergence hypothesis in per capita agricultural output and foodgrains productivity across the major 15 states of India. During 1971-2007, Indian states have exhibited sigma divergence in per capita agricultural output. The study on relationship between initial foodgrain output and growth rates has shown a divergence pattern rather than convergence during 1971-1988, and we could observe a weak convergence during 1988-2007.

description: We consider the operator product expansion (OPE) structure of scalar primary operators in a generic Lorentzian CFT and its dual description in a gravitational theory with one extra dimension. The OPE can be decomposed into certain bi-local operators transforming as the irreducible representations under conformal group, called the OPE blocks. We show the OPE block is given by integrating a higher spin field along a geodesic in the Lorentzian AdS space-time when the two operators are space-like separated. When the two operators are time-like separated however, we find the OPE block has a peculiar representation where the dual gravitational theory is not defined on the AdS space-time but on a hyperboloid with an additional time coordinate and Minkowski space-time on its boundary. This differs from the surface Witten diagram proposal for the time-like OPE block, but in two dimensions we reproduce it consistently using a kinematical duality between a pair of time-like separated points and space-like ones.

description: This study has estimated the supply augmentation of groundwater recharge due to creation of water harvesting structures and has assessed the cost-effectiveness of rainwater harvesting for groundwater recharge on watershed basis in one of the sub-watersheds of the Kolar district, Peninsular India — a typically hard-rock area. The study is based on the primary data for the year 2008-09 collected from a sample of 90 farmers having irrigation bore-wells in the selected watershed named Thotli. The study has indicated that the annual draft of irrigation water exceeds the annual recharge, causing a negative balance. On an average, the returns per rupee investment have been found to be ` 1.80 on farm pond, ` 1.78 on recharge pit and ` 1.39 on field bund. The cost incurred to impound a metre cube of water has been found as ` 3.01 in the case of field bund, where estimated recharge benefit is 5.6 m3, ` 1.67 /m3 in the case of recharge pit (with an estimated recharge benefit of 720 m3), and ` 1.33 /m3 in the case of farm pond (recharge benefit of 1350 m3). The discounted cost-benefit analysis of the investment on water harvesting structures has indicated that the investment on water harvesting structures is cost-effective and financially-viable.

description: Cocoa butter is a key ingredient in making chocolate, but it's becoming expensive and harder to find. To meet growing demand, it's important to find alternatives. Mahua seed oil, from a lesser-known crop, has similar properties to cocoa butter, making it a good candidate. However, it hasn’t been studied much for use in chocolate. This research explores how mahua seed oil can be modified to replace cocoa butter, offering a more affordable and sustainable option. The findings could help the confectionery industry while also promoting the use of underutilized natural resources.
Crystallographic splitting theorem for band representations and fragile topological photonic crystals

description: The fundamental building blocks in band theory are band representations (BRs): bands whose infinitely-numbered Wannier functions are generated (by action of a space group) from a finite number of symmetric Wannier functions centered on a point in space. This work aims to simplify questions on a multi-rank BR by splitting it into unit-rank bands, via the following crystallographic splitting theorem: being a rank-$N$ BR is equivalent to being splittable into a finite sum of bands indexed by $\{1,2,\ldots,N\}$, such that each band is spanned by a single, analytic Bloch function of $k$, and any symmetry in the space group acts by permuting $\{1,2,\ldots,N\}$. Applying this theorem, we develop computationally efficient methods to determine whether a given energy band (of a tight-binding or Schrödinger Hamiltonian) is a BR, and, if so, how to numerically construct the corresponding symmetric Wannier functions. Thus we prove that rotation-symmetric topological insulators in class AI are fragile, meaning that the obstruction to symmetric Wannier functions is removable by addition of BRs. An implication of fragility is that its boundary states, while robustly covering the bulk energy gap in finite-rank tight-binding models, are unstable if the Hilbert space is expanded to include all symmetry-allowed representations. These fragile insulators have photonic analogs that we identify; in particular, we prove that an existing photonic crystal built by Yang et al. [Nature 565, 622 (2019)] is fragile topological with removable surface states, which disproves a widespread perception of 'topologically-protected' surface states in time-reversal-invariant, gapped photonic/phononic crystals. Our theorem is finally applied to derive various symmetry obstructions on the Wannier functions of topological insulators, and to prove their equivalence with the nontrivial holonomy of Bloch functions.
description: 53 pages, 11 figures. We now clarify how certain band representations of finite-rank tight-binding Hamiltonians can evade the tight-binding (or 'atomic') limit. The symmetry-indicator analysis of a P3-symmetric model is corrected
Collaborative Approaches to Translation in Social Change Movements
Creators: name: Langer, Jocelyn D
Publisher: name: University of Massachusetts Amherst
Year: 2016

description: The focus of this thesis is on collaborative translation as a reflection of the contexts in which it takes place. I consider a wide range of contexts, including both historical and present day social change movements. Drawing on the principles that were outlined by scholars during the cultural turn in translation studies that took place during the 1980s and 90s, I examine cultural translation as something that can take place on many levels, from the translation of words and sentences to the translation of the values of a movement.
As an example of the holistic approaches that are part of cultural translation, I look in-depth at Our Bodies, Ourselves, a feminist book that has been written and translated collaboratively by women all over the world. I then expand my survey of collaborative approaches to include the translation of literary and religious texts, including the translation of Don Quixote into Kichwa, as part of an indigenous movement, as well as historical and present day team translations of Buddhist sutras in the U.S. and China, and numerous collaborative Bible translations spanning centuries and continents.
I also explore the relationship between amateur translators, collaborative approaches, and activism in social movements. Part of my aim is to bridge the gaps between translator training and translation theory, practice, and policy. In some cases, amateur translators are a manifestation of the values of a movement; in other cases they are a necessity due to limited financial resources, and activists take a variety of approaches to the problem of budgetary constraints. One approach is collaboration, which can make a translation project economically viable by dividing work amongst volunteers. Another solution is to form worker cooperatives. In addition, the use of technology can help to increase efficiency and save money.
Translators in social change movements frequently solve problems and carry out their values by taking holistic approaches. From integrating modern technology and time-tested historical practices to drawing on translation traditions from a variety of cultures, collaborative translation projects demonstrate a wide range of ways in which the values of social change movements can be reflected in the translation process.

description: Bambusa tuldoides f. swolleninternode is an attractive ornamental bamboo species of southern China, with highly shortened and swollen at the base of internodes. In this study, the complete chloroplast genome of B. tuldoides was sequenced and reported for the first time. The complete genome size is 139,460 base pairs (bp), including a large single-copy (LSC) region of 82,996 bp, a small single-copy (SSC) region of 12,876 bp and a pair of invert repeats (IR) regions of 21,794 bp. The plastid genome contained 132 genes, including 86 protein-coding genes, 38 tRNA genes and 8 rRNA genes. The overall GC content of the genome is 39%. The phylogenetic analysis revealed that B. tuldoides is closely related to B. dolichoclada, B. pachinensis var. hirsutissima, and B. utilis, three species in Bambusa based on 16 chloroplast genomes.
