A Dimension Space For Evaluating Collaborative Musical Performance Systems

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

The configurability and networking abilities of digital musical instruments increases the possibilities for collaboration in musical performances. Computer music ensembles such as laptop orchestras are becoming increasingly common and provide laboratories for the exploration of these possibilities. However, much of the literature regarding the creation of DMIs has been focused on individual expressivity, and their potential for collaborative performance has been under-utilized. This paper makes the case for the benefits of an approach to digital musical instrument design that begins with their collaborative potential, examines several frameworks and sets of principles for the creation of digital musical instruments, and proposes a dimension space representation of collaborative approaches which can be used to evaluate and guide future DMI creation. Several examples of DMIs and compositions are then evaluated and discussed in the context of this dimension space.

The Linkage of Business Community (Case Study of Rattan Industries in the Village of Trangsan, Gatak, Sukoharjo)

Field: Business, Management and Accounting (Social Sciences)

Indonesian industry is likely to snap because it relies on the monopolitic conglomerate’s industry so that it cause the inter relationship between big and smaller units of industry to become weak. The weakness of the industrial relationship is caused by the units independetly. This is different from the industry which is based on community concept emphasizing a main priority to close inter relationship between the units. This research was arried out in Trangsan, Gatak, Sukoharjo, Central Java. Where there is a industrial community which has been a close inter relationship since long time ago. The goal of this research is to know the type and the nature of unit inter relationship in rattan industrial community in Trangsan, and know the strategy how it faced a nationally economical crisis.This research used a survei method. The number of the population was 110 entrepreneurs from Trangsan. The sample was obtained with stratied into three categories, based on number of labour force. Every category was taken 20% as sample based on homogeneity sample, ana the respondent was examined with random sampling. The collected data were presented in frequency and cross table. The analysis of qualitative data used logical rationale, deductive – inductive, analogy and comparison, while the analysis of quantitative data used the analysis of frequency and cross table. The use of these two analysis was the result of the research.These are the result of the research: 1) a inter relationship among small – scalled businesses; 2) there is a weak inter relationship between small and medium scaled industries; 3) the business inter relationship of rattan industries is subcontract in which a part of the big scaled industry’s job is reponsible for the small saled one; 4) the form of the business inter relationship is cooperative; 5) the main strategy of rattan industry community to face nationally economical orisis strengthens their business inter relationship.

ORIGINAL PAPER Assessing the Effects of Electroconvulsive Therapy on Cortical Excitability by Means of Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation and Electroencephalography

Field: Neuroscience (Life Sciences)

The Author(s) 2012. This article is published with open access at Springerlink.com Abstract Electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) has signifi-cant short-term antidepressant effects on drug-resistant patients with severe major depression. Animal studies have demonstrated that electroconvulsive seizures produce potentiation-like synaptic remodeling in both sub-cortical and frontal cortical circuits. However, the electrophysio-logical effects of ECT in the human brain are not known. In this work, we evaluated whether ECT induces a measurable change in the excitability of frontal cortical circuits in humans. Electroencephalographic (EEG) potentials evoked by transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) were collected before and after a course of ECT in eight patients with severe major depression. Cortical excitability was mea-sured from the early and local EEG response to TMS. Clinical assessment confirmed the beneficial effects of ECT on depressive symptoms at the group level. TMS/ EEG measurements revealed a clear-cut increase of frontal cortical excitability after ECT as compared to baseline, that was significant in each and every patient. The present findings corroborate in humans the idea that ECT may produce synaptic potentiation, as previously observed in animal studies. Moreover, results suggest that TMS/EEG may be employed in depressed patients to monitor longi-tudinally the electrophysiological effects of different ther-apeutic neuromodulators, e.g. ECT, repetitive TMS, and sleep deprivation. To the extent that depression involves an alteration of frontal cortical excitability, these measure-ments may be used to guide and evaluate treatment pro-gression over time at the single-patient level.
The Masquerading Bleed

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Purpose: We report a case of anemia initially attributed to arteriovenous malformations and duodenitis. Further evaluation of the friable mucosa with endoscopy and biopsies revealed the true underlying diagnosis to be AL (Lambda) type Amyloidosis. Case Report: A 59 yo male with DM, CAD, and CKD presented to his PCP with a complaint of fatigue. He denied any gastroenterological complaints and was found to have a Hgb of 6.1 (g/dL) and was FOBT positive. On initial EGD, mild gastritis with a 2 or 3 AVMs were noted in the stomach along with a “friable” appearing duodenitis. The colonoscopy showed a few scattered submucosal hemorrhagic vessels. Since these limited findings did not explain the patient's degree of anemia, a capsule endoscopy was performed which showed angioectasias with limited active bleeding in the proximal jejunum and friable mucosa. Enteroscopy with biopsy of the distal duodenum and proximal jejunum was performed. There was significant oozing of the friable mucosa noted post biopsy. The biopsies were positive for Amyloidosis on Congo Red staining showing classic apple green birefringence. Fat pad biopsy was subsequently done and positive as well, with further staining confirming AL type. Renal and bone marrow biopsies were negative for Amyloidosis. The patient was referred to Oncology and was started on oral melphalan with high dose dexamethasone. Discussion: AL type Amyloidosis has an estimated incidence of 1 in 100,000 in Westernized countries, and its diagnosis upon biopsy from the gastrointestinal tract is even rarer. The presentation of acute on chronic anemia with no gastrointestinal complaints makes this case clinically unique.FigureFigure
Imaging Poly (1-Butene) Films by SFM/STM

Field: Materials Science (Physical Sciences)

Thin poly(1‐butene) (PB‐1) films drawn from the melt were deposited onto substrates of highly oriented pyrolytic graphite (HOPG) for an investigation with scanning force (SFM) and scanning tunneling microscopy (STM). The aim of this investigation was to study the surface electronic and topographic structure of these ultradrawn polymer films, which strongly influence the interfacial properties in contact with other materials, as for example in composite materials. Our SFM measurements excellently complement previous transmission electron microscopic (TEM) investigations showing the filamentary structure of the uniaxially stretched polymer as well as details within PB‐1 film defect structures (i.e., cracks). Close to monomolecular areas of the PB‐1 film, high resolution STM imaging simultaneously reveals the atomically resolved HOPG substrate surface as well as a helical structure originating from the polymer film.

Approach to the construction of regular low-density parity-check codes from group permutation matrices

Field: Computer Science (Physical Sciences)

In this study, a new method for constructing low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes is presented. This construction is based on permutation matrices which come from a finite abstract group and hence the codes constructed in this manner are called group permutation low-density parity-check (GP-LDPC) codes. A necessary and sufficient condition under which a GP-LDPC code has a cycle is given and some properties of these codes are investigated. A class of flexible-rate GP-LDPC codes without cycles of length four is also introduced. Simulation results show that GP-LDPC codes perform very well with the iterative decoding and can outperform their random-like counterparts.
The Organization of Escape Behaviour in the Crayfish

Field: Neuroscience (Life Sciences)

ABSTRACT Invertebrate escape reflexes have long been favoured preparations for investigating neuronal substrates of behaviour. The large size of many of their component neurones make them accessible to current micro-electrode techniques, and selection pressures for rapidity of response have probably caused them to evolve in the direction of the maximal neurological simplicity consistent with their function. Indeed, given our current technical and conceptual limitations, they are probably among the very few behaviour patterns that we may presently hope to analyse with any degree of completeness.

The cylindrocubic carcinomas of the lung (the so-called adenocarcinomas). A histopathological analysis of 725 cases.

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

A histopathological and histochemical analysis of 725 cases of cylindrocubic carcinomas of the lung was performed: 570 cases were surgically removed specimens, 98 bronchial and 46 extrathoracal biopsies from unoperable cases, and 11 autopsies. Histopathology of operated cases revealed the co-existence and intrication in different proportions of immature cell areas with dense proliferations containing many giant, monstrous cells, with others trabecular, acinar, cribriform-areolar, pseudoglandular, tubular, papillar and glandular-secretory areas; most of these cellular dispositions were related to the lung stromal development (scars, fibrotic areas); 117 out of the 570 cases were independent, multicentric, true bronchiolo-alveolar carcinomas, and 48 cases were true glandular-secretory carcinomas of the large bronchi. 143 out of the 570 cases developed upon scars and fibrotic areas; in 42 out of these 143 the pericicatricial invasion was bronchiolo-alveolar-like. The study of small tumors and of bronchial biopsies revealed mostly the peripheral origin of these cylindrocubic carcinomas from the bronchial covering epithelia of small, nonglandular bronchi. The term of adenocarcinoma does not correspond to the predominant histological picture of these lung tumors, and the so-called subtypes of the WHO typing are currently represented in the same tumors concomitantly and in various proportions. The histodiagnosis of these lung carcinomas is facilitated by the presence of well differentiated, glandular-secretory areas and has to be based upon the predominant aspects of the tumoral growth.
Strategie di intermediazione e di scambio nel mercato dell'arte: un'analisi empirica

Field: Economics, Econometrics and Finance (Social Sciences)

This paper analyzes the auctions of modern and contemporary paintings in the Italian market over the period 1983-95. Two main empirical findings emerge: first, the estimated values increase with order of sale; second, the price/estimate ratios are independent of the order of sale. Therefore, on average, the effects that could systematically affect the price/estimate sequence neutralize each other and no profitable trading rules emerge. At the same time, predictable differences in the average price of the paintings are present at the auction level.
English in Russia: To Learn or Not To Learn – That Is the Question

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

This article explores the issues of the English language position in Russia. In recent years English has emergedas the pre-eminent language for international communication all over the globe. It is spoken by more peoplearound the world than any other language, and is regularly described as a truly ‘global’ language. The authorclaims that the position of English in Russia is not that striking as in the whole world. It is mostly connected withthe geographical position of this huge country/ Russia is the largest country in the world, covering more thanone-eighth of the Earth's inhabited land area. Russia is also the world's ninth most populous nation with 143million people as of 2012. Extending across the entirety of northern Asia and much of Eastern Europe, Russiaspans nine time zones and incorporates a wide range of environments and landforms. The author comes to theconclusion that only the center of Russia (such cities as Moscow, Saint Petersburg, Nizhny Novgorod,Yekaterinburg) exhibits the special role of English for most of the population due to the international companiesthat are mostly located there and offer jobs for people, the most outstanding Universities that invite studentsfrom abroad and international affairs that huge Russian companies accumulated in the above mentioned citieshave with their foreign partners.
Adaptation Discourses and Modes of Governance in Swiss Alpine Regions

Field: Social Sciences (Social Sciences)

Like other European countries, Switzerland has started to develop a national climate change adaptation strategy only rather recently. In contrast, Swiss cantonal (i.e., state-level) governments—in particular those in highly vulnerable mountain regions—have been more active in formulating and implementing adaptation measures. These measures, however, differ considerably with respect to scope, range, and mode within and across regions. In this paper, we analyze this variety of regional adaptation measures within the Swiss federalist political system looking specifically at three mountainous cantons in different parts of Switzerland. Particularly, we will try to explain the timely occurrence of these adaptation activities and the governance patterns that emanate from these activities at the regional level. Fur this purpose, we developed a dataset including all public (in the sense of ‘public policy’) adaptation measures in the three selected cantons for the period from 2001 to 2011 based on publicly available documentations such as legal documents, governmental and administrative reports, parliamentary minutes and press releases. The study shows that similar patterns over time in the occurrence of adaptation activities in the three regions can be observed. This similarity seems to be due to a trans-regional adaptation discourse shaped by the national and international policy agenda rather than by specific regional conditions such as the occurrence of locally explicit extreme events. The discussed or applied modes of governance in these adaptation activities, on the other hand, display some significant differences between the three regions. Most adaptation activities are information or research oriented with the cantonal government and its public administration being the main body in charge of the activities. However, the relevant fields of application (policy sectors) clearly reflect the topographical and socio-economic conditions in the three cantons.
Does social media promote participatory democracy? Evidence from South Korea’s presidential impeachment protests?

Field: Social Sciences (Social Sciences)

This study examines whether social media contributed to the success of the Korean presidential impeachment protests of 2016–17 and promoted participatory democracy. The 2016–17 candlelight protests contributed to the overthrowing of a corrupt regime. However, was it a victory of participatory democracy? To answer this question, we must first be clear on what kind of participatory democracy is being referred to. Therefore, while social media played a crucial role in the success of the protests, the impact of social media on participatory democracy should be addressed separately. For this purpose, we first analyse the contributions of the digitally connected movements during the 2016–17 protests with two social movement theories: resource mobilisation and collective identity. Second, we examine whether the success of digitally connective movements during those protests promoted participatory democracy. To discuss this issue, we use Arnstein’s concept of a ‘ladder of participation’, which describes participatory democracy as falling within three levels, from non-participation through tokenism to citizen power. This study shows that the proliferation of social media politics by itself does not convert representative democracy into participatory democracy. This implies that even if social media augments citizens’ power of resistance, it cannot transform citizens into a governing power.
Research on emission reduction decisions in multi-echelon supply chain with low-carbon policy considered

Field: Decision Sciences (Social Sciences)

Along with the trend of low-carbon development, the government adopts a series of measures to control carbon emissions. Here, in the case with constraint of carbon cap and both firms and consumers have low carbon preference, we study the firm production decision problems in a supply chain consists of three firms The latest-firm-dominant situation is discussed by using Stackelberg game and we obtain the optimal output and emission reductions by the converse solution method. It shows that the optimal reduction decision of a firm is to make its marginal emission reduction cost slightly larger than purchase the corresponding emission rights from the carbon transaction market. The emission reduction of one side in a supply chain will motivate the others in the supply chain. With the enhancement of consumer low-carbon preference, the sales price will rise and lead to profits rise of the whole supply chain, but not all firms are profits benefit. Based on the above analysis, we extend the model to n firms aims to make some guideline sense for supply chain firms launching cooperation in areas of emission reduction.
