title: Scientific workflow management with ADAMS

authors: Reutemann, Peter

subjects: data mining

abstract: We demonstrate the Advanced Data mining And Machine learning System (ADAMS), a novel workflow engine designed for rapid prototyping and maintenance of complex knowledge workflows. ADAMS does not require the user to manually connect inputs to outputs on a large canvas. It uses a compact workflow representation, control operators, and a simple interface between operators, allowing them to be auto-connected. It contains an extensive library of operators for various types of analysis, and a convenient plug-in architecture to easily add new ones.

title: Place-responsive choreography and activism

authors: Barbour, Karen

abstract: Sensory encounters with place, site and landscape have the potential to stimulate new and deeply felt engagements with local places, and to prompt discussion about the relationships between place, culture and identity. Such sensory encounters may also offer opportunities for critical, reflexive theorising and practice (Pink, 2008, 2009; Stevenson, 2014; Warren, 2012). Within the myriad of potentialities offered in research, a focus on sensory and embodied encounters with local places prompts me to articulate intersections between local issues of social justice and environmental activism and feminist choreography. As a dance artist and researcher, ethnographic research has led me to autoethnographic performance as a specific means to articulate my encounters with place through embodied expression and textual representation.

title: Waikato shallow lakes modelling

authors: Lehmann, Moritz K.

subjects: Lakes

abstract: The principal aim of this study is to apply a modelling approach to identify, evaluate and prioritise specific in-lake and catchment restoration options which could be applied to improve the water quality and ecological health of peat and riverine lake types across the Waikato Region. Four representative lakes have been selected as case studies for this work based on their social, cultural and ecological significance, as well as the availability of historical monitoring data and the potential transferability of the study findings to similar lake systems. The lakes include Rotomānuka, Ngāroto, Waahi and Waikare.
