description: Careful selection of key components and the use of straightforward multiplication schemes can be applied to the design of a low-noise frequency synthesizer for Ku-band signals to 20 GHz. ___________________________________________________________________________ Frequency synthesizers provide the local oscillator (LO) signals as well as transmit signals in many communications networks. They must be stable, with low phase noise and good spectral purity, to support the complex modulation formats that are now common to many wired and wireless communications networks. To serve as a signal source in such networks, a low-noise frequency synthesizer capable of tuning from 14 to 20 GHz (Ku-band operation) was developed with step size of 500 kHz and phase noise of-81 dBc/Hz offset 10 kHz from the carrier. By doubling the output of this 20-GHz frequency synthesizer a total of three times, it can be extended in frequency for millimeter-wave radar systems and radio links operating at frequency bands of 57 to 64 GHz and 71 to 77 GHz. Improvements in silicon CMOS technology, notably its enhanced capabilities for RF, microwave, and even millimeter-wave circuits, have supported its expanding applications in wireless transmission applications. Silicon CMOS, for example, is suitable for fabricating both hig hfrequency oscillators as well as integrated frequency synthesizers. As a result of device geometry scaling, CMOS transistors have been developed with transition frequencies well into the millimeter-wave range. Practical CMOS wireless source solutions require a choice of the optimal frequency synthesizer architecture to meet the different requirements of a given application.
Surface-induced magnetism in C-doped SnO$_{2}$

description: The magnetism of C-doped SnO$_{2}$ (001) surfaces is studied using first-principles calculations. It is found that carbon does not induce magnetism in bulk SnO$_{2}$ when located at the oxygen site, but shows a large magnetic moment at the SnO$_{2}$ (001) surface. The magnetic moment is mainly contributed by the carbon atoms due to empty minority spins of $p$ orbitals and is localized at the surface and subsurface atoms. No magnetism is observed when the carbon atom is located at the subsurface oxygen sites. The origin of magnetism is discussed in the context of surface bonding.

A pilot course for teaching English as an additional language to older people
Creators: name: Buzan, Jean Mary
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: This case history covers the progress of a pilot course for teaching English as an additional language to older people from the original concept to its evaluation and final acceptance for future implementation. A serious problem was observed to exist among the large number of older immigrants living in Canada who cannot speak or understand the English language. Many of these people had lived here for many years imprisoned in a 'language ghetto’ which allowed them to communicate only with those of their own race. The difficulties experienced by these individuals, as well as the impoverishment of Canadian culture engendered by their inability to communicate, constituted sufficient reason to explore the feasibility of designing a course to offer English language training specifically for them. A thorough study of all the current English language training courses in Vancouver, British Columbia, revealed a gap in the services available for this particular population. A review of the literature regarding learning and the older person disclosed nothing which might suggest that such an undertaking might prove abortive. The geographical locations -of ethnic populations who might be expected to register in such a course were charted, and a suitable community centre in which to hold the classes was selected. Promotional material was prepared and disseminated through mass media and other suitable outlets. The class was successfully launched and throughout its course careful records were kept including attendance, characteristics of participants, and anecdotes reflecting the acceptance of the course by those attending. The project firmly established the need for such courses for this group, and found that the overall format of the program was satisfactory and feasible. Recommendations for future courses were outlined, and an expansion of the pilot course was subsequently effectively implemented in Vancouver.

description: This paper looked at naturalized citizens and permanent residents and their influence on the macroeconomic in the United States. I used multiple Vector Autoregression (VAR) models with the Cholesky decomposition to see the effects of expansionary shocks of permanent residents and naturalized citizens on real Gross Domestic Product (GDP) per worker, real wage, labor participation, and unemployment rate. The following VAR ordering, [Real GDP per worker, Permanent Residents or Naturalized Citizens, Real wage, Labor Participation, Unemployment]’. In the short term, one naturalized citizen's shock increases the real GDP per worker, and one permanent resident's shock does not affect it. The unemployment rate and the real wage decrease, and labor participation increases. All the effects are not significant and approach zero in the long run.

This leads immediately to obstructions to the existence of solutions. Moreover, we will deduce that the solution space of such equations is always finite dimensional.

description: A self-action problem for a point-like charged particle arbitrarily moving in flat space-time of six dimensions is considered. A consistent regularization procedure is proposed which relies on energy-momentum and angular momentum balance equations. Structure of the angular momentum tensor carried by the retarded "Liénard-Wiechert" field testifies that a point-like source in six dimensions possesses an internal angular momentum. Its magnitude is proportional to the square of acceleration. It is the so-called {\em rigid} relativistic particle; its motion is determinated by the higher-derivative Lagrangian depending on the curvature of the world line. It is shown that action functional contains, apart from usual "bare" mass, an additional renormalization constant which corresponds to the magnitude of "bare" internal angular momentum of the particle.

description: Abstract
This qualitative telling case study was situated within a broader project, which explored how the researchparticipants modified their teaching after having completed their master’s program. We investigated reflective stance of a teacher-practitioner who was a graduate of a Master’s Literacy Specialist program, which promoted reflective teaching practices using videos of students’ own teaching. The research questions were: (1) How does the participant demonstrate his use of a reflective stance with regard to teaching practices? (2) What are the modifications in teaching practices that were made by the participant after the reflective video pedagogy course used in his graduate practicum? (3) What other elements of his graduate program does the participant describe as being important in his development as a reflective practitioner? (4) Which of these elements does he choose to employ in his classroom? Primary data sources included: classroom observations, participant interviews, and student artifacts. We analysed the data using qualitative methods of open coding, thematic analysis, and triangulation. The research found that the focus-participant reported a series of modifications made by him to his teaching and demonstrated his use of reflective stance on the high mastery level.

description: We examine the speed and fidelity of several protocols for state or single excitation transfer in finite spin chains subject to diagonal and off-diagonal disorder. We find that, for a given chain length and maximal achievable inter-spin exchange (XY) coupling strength, the optimal static spin-coupling protocol, implementing the fastest state transfer between the two ends of the chain, is more susceptible to off-diagonal (XY coupling) disorder, as compared to a much slower but robust adiabatic transfer protocol with time-dependent coupling strengths.

Decision making and influence in a Tasmanian city : a study of the Glenorchy City Council
Creators: name: Wood, MC
Publisher: name: University Of Tasmania
Year: 2023

description: Decision making and influence in Australian local government is a field of study neglected to date. This investigation of a Tasmanian local government council sets up two major and several minor propositions about decision making and influence. The propositions concern: (a) the extent to which the decision making process is based on historical factors; or whether the process follows the prescriptions of the rational or incremental decision theorists; and (b) whether some people, for example the staff, are more influential than others. The organisation, the Glenorchy City Council, is then examined to test the propositions. An eclectic methodology is used. The methodology draws on decision making theory as a means of ordering and analysing the data; and attributed and prescribed influence are investigated with the help of American and British community power studies. One decision - that of the striking of the rate - is studied in detail. The study proceeds through two major media : observations made by the researcher and data gathered from a questionnaire administered to ten aldermen and nine senior members of the council's staff. The council's history is discussed briefly with the post-Second World War period being emphasised. The council's decision making procedures are recorded and its membership and attributed influentials delineated. The striking of the rate is then described and analysed as the decision making process moves through the intelligence, design and choice phases. The men seen by the researcher and the respondents as influential in this decision are isolated. In the conclusion, the propositions and the data are considered and some conclusions drawn suggesting that the decision making, process is incremental in nature and that one member of staff is more influential than the other staff and the aldermen. The activities of the aldermen and the staff during the striking of the rate are discussed with reference to two traditional concerns of public administration: the roles of elected representatives and permanent officials, and their answerability. Finally, it is suggested that more research into decision making is required, and that Glenorchy's aldermen and other members of staff would wield more influence on the rate if the nature of the decision was changed from one of keeping the system going to one involving something more.

An Investigation of Time Delays in the Management of Patients with Chronic Limb-Threatening Ischaemia

Year: 2021
Subjects: Uncategorized

description: Chronic limb-threatening ischaemia (CLTI) represents the end-stage of peripheral arterial disease and is associated with significant morbidity and mortality. Despite recent improvements in treatments, limited attention has been given to evaluating time delays in the clinical pathways through which patients are managed. The publication of the Vascular Society of Great Britain and Ireland’s Peripheral Arterial Disease Quality Improvement Framework (PAD QIF) represents the first attempt to standardise and improve pathways, however there is a paucity of supporting evidence and limited understanding about its implementation. This thesis aims to provide a detailed exploration of the nature of time delays and evaluate how clinical pathways can be improved. To meet these aims, five questions were defined, and multiple methodologies employed, to explore their answers.The results demonstrate that time delays are evident throughout the CLTI management pathway and are associated with detrimental patient outcomes. These findings provide the first validation of the PAD QIF’s time-to-treatment targets. Furthermore, exploring primary care consultations identified that opportunities to recognise CLTI are being missed, even in patients at highest risk of amputation.Through surveying United Kingdom (UK) vascular surgeons, wide variations in patient care were identified and it was deemed that aspects of the PAD QIF were unfeasible to implement. It was subsequently postulated that adapting pathways towards an ‘urgent care’ model, which utilised vascular limb salvage services, could benefit care. Finally, this thesis explored the novel concept of vascular limb salvage services and provides evidence that services are both clinically and cost effective at managing patients with CLTI.In conclusion, this thesis represents an innovative and detailed exploration of time delays and provides unique evidence that the implementation of the PAD QIF, along with the adaption of an ‘urgent’ model of care and vascular limb salvage services, can help improve pathways and outcomes for patients.

Using a simplified model for signal transduction in the quorum sensing pathway, we identify key dimensionless parameters that control the system's response. These parameters are estimated using experimental data on luminescence phenotypes for different mutant strains. The corresponding model predictions are consistent with results from other experiments which did not serve as inputs for determining model parameters. Furthermore, the proposed framework leads to novel testable predictions for luminescence phenotypes and for responses of the network to different perturbations.

description: A simple display-interactive system for process control using a small computer is presented which is based on conventional digital filter design methods and accuracy considerations. The system permits gain, lead, and lag-lead compensation of a two-real-pole plant with position offset. The program, written for the PDP-12, allows the user much flexibility in sampling and displaying the step, responses and choosing the compensator parameters. There is also provision for evaluating the system performance (peak time, maximum overshoot, and position offset). This flexibility is provided by organization of the program into large subroutine packages, e.g. graphic display, fixed-point two-decimal-place and double-precision (24-bit) fractional arithmetic routines, compensator difference equations, etc. Discussed are theoretical and practical aspects of the system design and implementation, sources of error, overall structure of the program, including a general flowchart, experimental results, the limits imposed on the program by the computing facilities used, and some suggestions concerning possible extensions of the system.

In football, victory is etched deeply in the psyche of the players who navigate the field with their distinct mental imprints. These aspects, however, are frequently overshadowed by the emphasis on physical agility and tactical expertise. These psychological undercurrents, often subtle and unquantifiable, remain largely uncharted in conventional sports analytics. Though existing methodologies adeptly measure a sprint's speed or a shot's precision, they falter at the doorstep of the mind, unable to decode the intricate weave of emotions, resilience, and cognitive reflexes that equally dictate a game's tempo. In this paper, we present an application of "YODA: Your Offence and Defence Analysis," a newly devised framework in this unexplored terrain. YODA is used to systematically analyse the psychological profiles of football players from two distinct teams, elucidating aspects previously obscured in the dynamic context of the game. YODA compares players' psychological landscapes across intrinsic player traits that influence team dynamics, strategy formulation, and ultimately, the scoreboard.
The knowledge theories of P.H. Hirst and P.H. Phenix : a comparative study of Hirst's \Forms of knowledge\" and Phenix's \"Realms of meaning\" and their implications for curriculum planning"

description: Since the early sixties a great controversy has centred in the curriculum world on the so-called 'disciplines thesis' of Philip H. Phenix and Paul H. Hirst. This thesis proposes that all knowledge can be reduced to a small number of logically distinct 'domains' or 'disciplines', and therefore all human meaning and understanding can be examined in terms of these 'forms' or 'realms'. Hirst contends there are seven or eight logically distinct forms: history, ethics, mathematics, physical science, religion, philosophy, social science and the arts, while Phenix contends there are nine. Phenix's 'realms' are symbolics, empirics, esthetics (sic), synnoetics, ethics and synoptics, six in number, achieved by combining his normative and comprehensive classes of meaning into two rather than five 'realms'. This theory of knowledge is intended by Hirst to provide a 'bridge' of reason between the human mind and the 'real' world. Phenix intends it to break down the feelings of fragmentation, cynicism, meaninglessness and inadequacy in the face of the surfeit of knowledge confronting the members of modern industrialized communities. The 'disciplines thesis' Hirst and Phenix put forward though is far from being one about which they are in complete harmonious accord. Hirst is severely critical of several of Phenix's 'realms', particularly symbolics, synnoetics and synoptics. In trying to 'tidy up' Phenix's theory, Hirst has not reached a height from which his own ideas are above criticism. However, he has certainly clarified many of the central issues regarding the philosophical foundations of the curriculum, and made a powerful case for the continuance of 'liberal education' as an indispensable part of the school curriculum. The implications for the curriculum of Hirst and Phenix are many. To begin with the ways of knowing contained in the 'forms' or 'realms' should be a vital part of the teaching of all school subjects, whether those subjects are pure 'forms' or 'realms', or 'fields' combining aspects of several of the cognitive domains. In addition careful consideration should be given to logical, developmental, methodological and motivational factors in the teaching of the disciplines so that at all times the following four basic principles are observed. (I) The sequence of study should be such that the material to be studied is introduced in a coherent, logically progressive way, there being no single way of 'putting together the pieces in the jigsaw.' (2)All human beings progress through certain clearly definable periods of growth and these determine what we are capable of learning. (3)The distinct ways of structuring experience in each of the disciplines are as important as the actual content of a subject. (4)Without an appeal to the imagination pupils will not be motivated to learn.

description: We analyze fluctuation-dissipation relations in the Backgammon model: a system that displays glassy behavior at zero temperature due to the existence of entropy barriers. We study local and global fluctuation relations for the different observables in the model. For the case of a global perturbation we find a unique negative fluctuation-dissipation ratio that is independent of the observable and which diverges linearly with the waiting time. This result suggests that a negative effective temperature can be observed in glassy systems even in the absence of thermally activated processes.

description: This resource is a single blog post created as part of the Day of Archaeology initiative. The Day of Archaeology project aimed to provide a window into the daily lives of archaeologists from all over the world. The project asked people working, studying or volunteering in the archaeological world to participate in a 'Day of Archaeology' each year by recording their day and sharing it through text, images or video on the Day of Archaeology blog.
The project asked anyone with a personal, professional or voluntary interest in archaeology to get involved, and help highlight the reasons why archaeology is vital to protect the past and inform our futures. The resulting Day of Archaeology project archive demonstrates the wide variety of work the archaeological profession undertakes day-to-day across the globe, and helps to raise public awareness of the relevance and importance of archaeology to the modern world.
The first ever Day of Archaeology was held in 2011 and, since then, the project had thousands of archaeologists take part in the event, from those working in the field through to specialists working in laboratories and behind computers. The last Day of Archaeology was on Friday 28th July 2017.

description: AbstractThis IRB-approved qualitative case study was grounded in Vygotsky’s (1978; 1987) socio-cultural constructivism theory and New London Group (1996) postulates of multiliteracies. The participants in this project were 12 domestic and international polylingual English as an Additional Language students at a public university in one of the north-eastern states in the United States of America. The data was collected via site and participant observations, analytical notes and memos, surveys, audio-recorded and transcribed interviews, and artifacts in the forms of the reading comprehension tests to two different texts. One of the texts was supported by an audio recording, another one had a video support with the sound track. All the data was coded using Saldaña’s (2012) thematic and value coding and triangulated in the process of analysis. The findings of this study indicated that all 12 research participants strongly relied on the means of multimodality while reading the texts and working with the comprehension test questions. All participants in this study found video mode as most helpful to them, followed by the auditory one in the process of their meaning making of the text, which they found complex. Major implication of this study is that multimodality needs to be embedded in the higher education curriculums in order to assist students, including but not limited to the polylingual EAL leaners with reading and meaning making.
