title: Classification and analysis of distributed event filtering algorithms

authors: Bittner, Sven

subjects: computer science

abstract: Publish/subscribe middleware provides efficient support for loosely coupled communication in distributed systems. A number of different distributed message-filtering algorithms have been proposed. So far, a systematic comparison and analysis of these filter algorithms is still missing. 
This paper proposes a classification scheme for distributed filter algorithms that supports the theoretical and practical analysis of these algorithms. We present a first cut theoretical evaluation and a subsequent practical evaluation of promising candidate algorithms. Factors that are considered include the characteristics of the underlying network and application-related constraints.
Based on the findings of these evaluations, we conclude with a summary of the strengths and weaknesses of the algorithms that we have studied.

title: From the rākau to the ngākau

authors: Derby, Melissa

subjects: research

abstract: The Ministry of Business, Innovation and Employment (MBIE) in Aotearoa New Zealand has funded 11 National Science Challenges (NSC), which aim to tackle a series of big questions affecting wellbeing in society. One Challenge, A Better Start: E Tipu E Rea, is investigating four key focus areas that children encounter in their early development and is seeking to identify the factors that contribute to forming a solid foundation for fostering wellbeing and lifelong success. Central to the principles of this Challenge is the Treaty of Waitangi in that the Treaty provides a framework to guide whānau engagement, policy change, and praxis. This article describes how a ‘ngākau’ rather than a ‘rākau’ approach to shaping research inquiry within this Challenge facilitates more authentic and mana-enhancing whānau engagement in research interactions (Macfarlane, 2019). The development of a whānau questionnaire is drawn on to illustrate the ngākau approach in practice.
