Abstract:
Adaptations, currently the best-known example of intersemiotic translation, more often than not are addressed in the disingenuous terms of ‘fidelity,’ ‘parasitism,’ or ‘solipsism.’ Although it seems a truism that adaptations adapt a ‘text’ from one discursive field to another, such a straightforward causality conflicts with the notion of ‘discursive field’ in which it is wont to occur. Moreover, the adaptation presented as adaptation loses its referential effect when the receiver is unacquainted with the material transposed. Together both issues — i.e. linearity and referentiality — in fact account for most of the misconceptions about the paradoxical phenomenon that is adaptation. This essay therefore proposes a semiological argument aimed at providing a better understanding of the discursive mechanisms at work in adaptational practice.

Abstract:
Abstract This essay highlights the shared critical terrain of adaptation and nostalgia: how they critically juxtapose the past with the present, and how they underscore the impossibility of return while also relying on prior experience. It also explores nostalgia’s effect on personal responses to adaptations and its interaction with textual form. Drawing from various areas of literary, media, and performance studies, including film adaptations of children’s literature, Watchmen and its screen adaptations, and Disney’s live-action remakes, this essay underscores how both nostalgia and adaptation are inherently multivalent concepts, and how they each rely on perspective to generate critical meaning.

Th is situation directs the Adaptation Studies themselves from traditional “literary and fi lm” studies towards Intermedia Studies and Media Studies. In a new way, the “fi delity” issue, the nature of the prototext, the cultural assessment of the adaptation, the problem of author, and the role of the audience and fandom in the creation and franchising of various adaptations are formulated. Th e socio-cultural and media aspects come to the fore, forcing us to think about adaptation in the categories of evolutionary and environmentalist theory.

Abstract:
Building on an expanded concept of mutual adaptation, this article explores a distinctive and successful aspect of International Baccalaureate's (IB) effort to scale up, as they moved to expand their programs and support services in Title I schools. Based on a three-year, mixed-methods study, it offers a case where we see not only local adaptations that schools made as they implemented IB (mutual adaptation in situ), but also a second level of adaptation. This reflects what we call mutual adaptation in action—as organizational learning took place on both sides. The designers incorporated what they learned from local implementations into the next iteration of their design, potentially strengthening not only the design, but also their capacity to go to scale. On the design side, adaptations include: (1) adapting to context and conditions, (2) reinforcing weak pillars and redesigning procedures, and (3) taking local adaptations to scale.

Abstract:
Abstract Settlements in coastal cities have various complex problems, one of which is the area of flooding and sinking. This study aims to examine how the adaptation response of the community to their residential area, which used to be in the form of a land dimension, is now sinking into a water dimension. Using qualitative methods, this research uses a GIS approach to observe physical changes in the area and in-depth interviews to obtain information related to community adaptation. The result is that there are three adaptations, namely Resistant Settlement Adaptations, Adaptation of Settlement Increase, and Reduced Settlements Adaptation. This adaptation occurs because of the encouragement of internal and external factors, giving rise to various forms of adaptation, especially in the Adaptation of Settlement Increase which is a new thing in this study.

Full text
Abstract:
Set in America in the 1970s, Billy Morrissette’s 2001 adaptation of Shakespeare’s Macbeth, Scotland, PA, waivers between nostalgia and critique. In order to understand the film’s conflicting attitudes towards the era in which it is set and to appreciate how adaptations, generally, often feel ambivalent about their past(s), this essay begins by discussing Scotland, PA’s construction of the 1970s. In an effort to answer Lynne Bradley’s call for ‘a new model’ of modern adaptation, seeing it as ‘a complex double gesture’, the essay discusses how although Scotland, PA appears to illustrate many of the qualities of what Fredric Jameson has called the nostalgia film, this categorization of the adaptation neither accounts for its use of irony nor for the inherently complex nature of nostalgia. Ultimately, Scotland, PA’s ambivalence about history, the essay proposes, encourages us to conceive of the relationship between source/past and adaptation/present as a site of complex, dynamic negotiations rather than a static dichotomy that obliges us to choose between an adaptation’s acceptance or rejection of its forebears.

Full text
Abstract:
Political Adaptation in Canadian Theatre, by Kailin Wright, is an excellent addition to the discourse on theatre adaptations. Wright applies theories of adaptation, identification, performance, Indigenous dramaturgy, and speech acts to define political adaptation as distinct from adaptation “proper”. She contends that political adaptations activate publics or, in her terms, “dispublics,” toward changed perspectives on inherited narratives. Seminal to her argument is Michel Pêcheux’s tripartite terminology, which describes the relationship of the spectator to mainstream culture as identification, counteridentification, and disidentification.

Full text
Abstract:
Marketing adaptation strategy has been characterized as a strategic imperative in markets with protectionist and nationalist sentiments, which underscores the need to better understand the effects of adaptation strategy. However, empirical investigations of international marketing strategy have considered mandatory and discretionary adaptations as equivalent. Discretionary adaptations, unlike mandatory adaptations, involve choice; thus, they are more relevant to the selection of an international marketing strategy. This article focuses on the direct and conditional effects of discretionary adaptation on export performance. Analyzing data from 203 U.S. small and medium-sized enterprises, the authors find a positive effect of discretionary adaptation on export performance as well as moderating effects of (1) a market characteristic (psychic distance), (2) a firm characteristic (international experience), and (3) a product characteristic (product positional advantage). The implications suggest that adaptation strategy may be more advantageous than previously thought, and that researchers should focus on discretionary adaptations when investigating the choice of a relatively standardized versus adapted international marketing strategy.

Full text
Abstract:
Abstract With respect to adaptation studies, contemporary Japanese popular culture signifies a unique case, as different types of media (be those textual, auditive, visual or audio-visual) are tightly intertwined through the “recycling” of successful characters and stories. As a result, a neatly woven net of intermedial adaptations has been formed - the core of this complex system being the manga-anime-live-action film “adaptational triangle.” On the one hand, the paper addresses the interplay of the various factors by which the very existence of this network is made possible, such as the distinctive cultural attitude to “originality,” the structure of the comics, animation and film industries, and finally, the role of fictitious genealogies of both traditional and contemporary media in the negotiation of national identity. On the other hand, the essay also considers some of the most significant thematic, narrative, and stylistic effects this close interconnectedness has on the individual medium. Special attention is being paid to the nascent trend of merging the adaptive medium with that of the original story (viewing adaptation as integration), apparent in contemporary manga-based live- action comedies, as the extreme case of intermedial adaptation. That is, when the aim of the adaptational process is no longer the transposition of the story but the adaptation (i.e. the incorporation) of the medium itself- elevating certain medium-specific devices into transmedial phenomena.

Abstract:
Les technologies et services mobiles font aujourd'hui partie de notre vie quotidienne grâce notamment aux ordiphones et ardoises numériques. Nous vivons actuellement la réalisation de la vision de Marc Weiser. Les fonctionnalités et les services rendus prennent le dessus sur les objets techniques. Dans cette thèse, nous nous intéressons à un type particulier d'applications informatiques: les jeux vidéo. Comme d'autres secteurs, les jeux vidéo doivent prendre en compte la révolution mobile, pour se réinventer et intéresser des joueurs. Cependant, les jeux sur support mobiles doivent faire face au problème du changement des conditions de jeu du joueur. Nous pouvons parler de contexte du joueur.L'objectif de cette thèse est de proposer un modèle pour la conception de jeu auto-adaptatif au contexte du joueur. Ce modèle doit être générique et permettre la création de jeux vidéo qui sont capables de modifier les activités et objectifs qu'ils proposent en fonction du contexte courant du joueur. Notre proposition se constitue de deux éléments clefs. Le premier consiste en un modèle générique des activités et des objectifs d'un jeu vidéo que nous avons appelé «composant de gameplay». Ce modèle est une formalisation du concept de boucle de jeu objectif, challenge, récompense. Ce modèle nous permet de représenter les objectifs et activités du jeu sous la forme d'un arbre. Le deuxième élément est un modèle de détection des arbres compatibles avec un contexte courant. Ce modèle se base sur des règles de contexte qui sont associées aux nœuds de l'arbre. Notre démarche consiste ensuite à vérifier que l'objectif représenté par la racine de l'arbre peut être atteint dans le contexte courant. Pour valider notre approche, nous avons réalisé une expérimentation en laboratoire. Nous avons également utilisé notre expérience sur l'utilisation des composants de gameplay dans un contexte industriel
Nowadays, the technologies and mobiles services are a part of our daily life thanks to smartphones and tablet computers. Currently, we live the realisation of Weiser's vision. The features and services provided are more important than technical objects.In this thesis, we are interested in a kind of computer applications: video games. Like other sectors, video games have to deal with mobile revolution in order to reinvent themselves and to interest players. However, video games on mobiles devices have to deal with the variation of playing conditions. We can call these conditions the player's context.The main objective of this thesis is to propose a model for the design of games that are able to adapt to the player's context. This model has to be generic and allow the game to adapt the proposed activities and objectives to the current context.Our proposition has two main elements. The first one is a generic model of the activities and the objectives which are proposed by the game. We have called this model "gameplay component". It is a formalization of the objectif, challenge, reward game loop concept. It allows us to represent a game as a tree.The second element is a model for detecting game tree which are compatible with a defined context. This model is based on rules which are linked with the nodes of the game tree. Our approach consist of checking that the objective which is given by the root of the game tree can be reached in the current context.In order to valid our approach, we have conducted a laboratory experimentation. We have also used our experience about using of gameplay component in a industrial context in order to do a case study

Este trabalho define uma arquitetura para adaptação e meta- adaptação de sistemas hipermídia, utilizando modelos propostos para a Web Semântica. As aplicações adaptativas são capazes de alterar algumas de suas características, tais como modelo de navegação ou de apresentação, em função de um contexto de adaptação. Este contexto pode incluir informações sobre o usuário, tais como preferências, navegações prévias, etc., e sobre o ambiente de execução, tais como dispositivo de acesso, banda passante, etc. As aplicações meta-adaptativas são capazes de alterar tanto os modelos da aplicação quanto o próprio processo de adaptação, também em função do contexto. A partir do modelo SHDM, são definidas extensões para representar o contexto de adaptação, as regras de adaptação e a arquitetura de execução deste tipo de aplicação. Através de comparações, é mostrado como os principais modelos descritos na literatura são casos particulares do modelo e da arquitetura propostos nesta dissertação.
This dissertation defines an architecture for adaptation and metaadaptation in hypermedia systems, using models proposed for the Semantic Web. Adaptive applications are able to alter some of their characteristics, such as its navigation model or presentation model, according to the adaptation context. This context may include information about the user, such as her preferences, navigation history, etc., and about the execution environment, such as access device, bandwidth, etc. Meta-adaptive applications are able to alter both its models and its adaptation process according to the adaptation context. The proposal extends the SHDM model with a context model, adaptation rules and execution architecture. It is shown, by comparison, that the major adaptation models described in the literature can be seen as particular cases of the proposed model and architecture.

Abstract:
(Self-)Adaptive software systems monitor the status of their requirements and adapt when some of these requirements are failing. The baseline for much of the research on adaptive software systems is the concept of a feedback loop mechanism that monitors the performance of a system relative to its requirements, determines root causes when there is failure, selects an adaptation, and carries it out. The degree of adaptivity of a software system critically depends on the space of possible adaptations supported (and implemented) by the system. The larger the space, the more adaptations a system is capable of. This thesis tackles the following questions: (a) How can we define multi-dimensional adaptation spaces that subsume proposals for requirements- and architecture-based adaptation spaces? (b) Given one of more failures, how can we select an optimal adaptation with respect to one or more objective functions? To answer the first question, we propose a design process for three-dimensional adaptation spaces, named the Three-Peaks Process, that iteratively elicits control and environmental parameters from requirements, architectures and behaviours for the system-to-be. For the second question, we propose three adaptation mechanisms. The first mechanism is founded on the assumption that only qualitative information is available about the impact of changes of the system's control parameters on its goals. The absence of quantitative information is mitigated by a new class of requirements, namely Adaptation Requirements, that impose constraints on the adaptation process itself and dictate policies about how conflicts among failing requirements must be handled. The second mechanism assumes that there is quantitative information about the impact of changes of control parameters on the system’s goals and that the problem of finding an adaptation is formulated as a constrained multi-objective optimization problem. The mechanism measures the degree of failure of each requirement and selects an adaptation that minimizes it along with other objective functions, such as cost. Optimal solutions are derived exploiting OMT/SMT (Optimization Modulo Theories/Satisfiability Modulo Theories) solvers. The third mechanism operates under the assumption that the environment changes dynamically over time and the chosen adaptation has to take into account such changes. Towards this direction, we apply Model Predictive Control, a well-developed theory with myriads of successful applications in Control Theory. In our work, we rely on state-of-the-art system identification techniques to derive the dynamic relationship between requirements and possible adaptations and then propose the use of a controller that exploits this relationship to optimize the satisfaction of requirements relative to a cost-function. This adaptation mechanism can guarantee a certain level of requirements satisfaction over time, by dynamically composing adaptation strategies when necessary. Finally, each piece of our work is evaluated through experimentation using variations of the Meeting-Scheduler exemplar.

Abstract:
Adaptation is a creative process that crosses and blurs boundaries: from page to stage, from small screen to big screen – and then, sometimes, back again. Beyond questions of form and medium, many adaptations also cross national borders and language barriers, making them important tools for intercultural communication and identity formation. This paper calls for a more intensive, transnational study of adaptation across print, stage, and screens in EU member and affiliate countries. For the highest possible effectiveness, interdisciplinarity is key; as a cultural phenomenon, adaptation benefits from perspectives rooted in a variety of fields and research methods. Its influence over transnational media flows, with patterns in production and reception across European culture industries, offers scholars a better understanding of how narratives are transformed into cultural exports and how these exchanges affect transnational relationships. The following questions are proposed to shape this avenue for research: (1) How do adaptations track narrative and media flows within and across national, linguistic, and regional boundaries? (2) To what extent do adapted narratives reflect transnational relationships, and how might they help construct Europeanness? (3) How do audiences in the EU respond to transnational adaptation, and how are European adaptations circulated and received outside Europe? (4) What impact does adaptation have in the culture industries, and what industrial practices might facilitate adaptation across media platforms and/or national boundaries? The future of adaptation studies and of adaptation as a cultural practice in Europe depends on the development of innovative, comparative, and interdisciplinary approaches to adaptation. The outcomes of future research can hold significant value for European media industries seeking to expand their market reach, as well as for scholars of adaptation, theater, literature, translation, and screen media.

(2) To what extent do adapted narratives reflect transnational relationships, and how might they help construct Europeanness? (3) How do audiences in the EU respond to transnational adaptation, and how are European adaptations circulated and received outside Europe? (4) What impact does adaptation have in the culture industries, and what industrial practices might facilitate adaptation across media platforms and/or national boundaries? The future of adaptation studies and of adaptation as a cultural practice in Europe depends on the development of innovative, comparative, and interdisciplinary approaches to adaptation. The outcomes of future research can hold significant value for European media industries seeking to expand their market reach, as well as for scholars of adaptation, theater, literature, translation, and screen media.

Abstract:
The ability of case-based reasoning systems to solve novel problems depends on their capability to adapt past solutions to new circumstances. However, acquiring the knowledge required for case adaptation is a classic challenge for CBR. This motivates the use of machine learning methods to generate adaptation knowledge. A popular approach uses the case difference heuristic (CDH) to generate adaptation rules from pairs of cases in the case base, based on the premise that the observed differences in case solutions result from the differences in the problems they solve, so can form the basic of rules to adapt cases with similar problem differences. Extensive research has successfully applied the CDH approach to adaptation rule learning for case-based regression (numerical prediction) tasks. However, classification tasks have been outside of its scope. The work presented in this paper addresses that gap by extending CDH-based learning of adaptation rules to apply to cases with categorical features and solutions. It presents the generalized case value heuristic to assess case and solution differences and applies it in an ensemble-based case-based classification method, ensembles of adaptations for classification (EAC), built on the authors' previous work on ensembles of adaptations for regression (EAR). Experimental results support the effectiveness of EAC.

Abstract:
Abstract This paper introduces a robust design method for product adaptation considering uncertainties in both product configurations and parameters. In this study, probability of product adaptation in the operation stage and influence of the probability on the optimal design solution are investigated. In this work, an AND-OR tree is used to model feasible design candidates and their adaptations, where each node represents a partial solution for the original design or the adapted design. Design candidates are generated from the AND-OR tree through tree-based search, and a design candidate can be defined by variation nodes that are used for potential product adaptations. A multi-level optimization method is applied to obtain the optimal values of design parameters for each design candidate and the best design solution from all feasible candidates. Both evaluation measures and their variations are considered in this robust design method.

Abstract:
Despite positioning itself as the ‘climate bank of Asia and the Pacific’, it is difficult to ascertain the Asian Development Bank’s claims of climate adaptation finance. Oxfam analysed the bank’s 2019–2023 climate finance portfolio and conducted a detailed assessment of 15 climate adaptation projects, comprising 43% of reported adaptation finance for FY 2021 and 2022. Oxfam found that the Asian Development Bank (ADB) hugely overstates the reported amounts with potential over-reporting of 44% in average for the assessed projects. This briefing paper calls for a transformative shift in the ADB’s adaptation finance strategies. The ADB must improve the accuracy and transparency of climate finance reporting and realign financial flows with the needs of the region's most vulnerable communities.
