This thesis will examine the works of artists-turned-architects, Arakawa and Gins in light of current research in the arts and sciences on affect and self-organisation. The aim of their project is to arrive at a 'daily research' in which a person may: 1. observe and learn about the operations of his or her own perception and action; 2. interact (dismantle and re-assemble) the identity boundaries reinforced by the habitual implementation of concept and category. This thesis takes account of multi-disciplinary and interdisciplinary approaches to embodiment and engages Arakawa and Gins from a practising artist's point of view. Given this practical orientation of the study, the aim is to makes a series of critical reflections on the work of Arakawa and Gins and demonstrate how such an approach brings theory and practice together. Exploration of the central aspects of their processes will prepare a person (researcher or practitioner) to begin a practice that is designed to combine studies of embodiment with the co-evolving relationship of organisms and their surroundings, to form the basis of a practice of embodied cognition. The thesis sets out this investigation into three chapters. In Chapter 1, I propose that the context for Arakawa and Gins' work be understood as the result of multidisciplinary interarticulations and multi-modal approaches to embodied activity. The position they occupy in relation to disciplinary endeavours such as art, architecture, psychology, bio-topology and theoretical physics is a process of constant problematisation, convergence and repositioning. A survey of key writings on Arakawa and Gins demonstrates the complexity of their work and the difficulties authors encounter situating them within a context that adequately addresses the scope of their project. In Chapter 2, I map a series of activities that accrue to form embodied configurations made perceptible by Arakawa and Gins' procedural architecture. These tactics apply to the observational-heuristic stance they take towards the perceptions and actions that constitute a person's identity boundaries as well as the transformational approach they take towards perceptions and actions that construct the material surrounds. I propose that the movements initiated by their architectural procedures become the practice of embodied cognition. That is, the ability to increase awareness and construct the shape of awareness is, at the same time, the ability to observe and learn about the anatomical, physiological basis of cognition. Through Æffective readings and embodied engagements I explore how Arakawa and Gins propose that the distribution of awareness may reconfigure the relationships among the organism-person-surround. The practice that repositions a person in relation to him- or herself, to others, to constructions of knowledge and modes of acquiring knowledge, questions the autonomy of any construct, especially constructs that are historically entrenched such as the organism, art, science or agency in general. In Chapter 3, I argue that by investigating the connection between and across the organism, person and surround, a person must reconsider activities, such as judgment and Reason, as ongoing embodied processes. The implication of such a shift impacts upon everyday practices as well as vocational and professional practices aligned with research and development. Throughout this thesis I argue that tactics of Arakawa and Gins' procedural architecture and the ethics of their reversible destiny project are the most productive way to approach the practical and theoretical inquiry into the contributions that humans can make towards co-constructing the world. The complex and intricate processes that emerge from their work will enhance the quality of life by allowing persons to apply the benefits of research in art and science to everyday actions. By devising procedures for re-entering perception and action, the transition from self-awareness to a practice of embodied cognition acquires a renewed urgency for daily life. Further, I have suggested that Arakawa and Gins' works demonstrates how deliberate recursive action may become a practice of embodied cognition. This occurs in three ways. Firstly, any form of deliberate assessment and coordination of top-down conceptual-analytical processing and bottom-up perceptual processing will open the activities of reasoning, selecting, deciding, and judging to new embodied modes of knowledge acquisition and therefore to unprecedented configurations of value. Secondly, the reconfiguration of what counts as knowledge, from an ontological perspective, impacts upon research processes and the way in which research cultures are situated in relation to communities. Lastly, the practice of embodied cognition sets a new agenda for convergent 'daily research' especially the interaction between art and the 'outside of art' and between third-person science and the science of our own fiction. These practical actions will counteract our commitment to closure on many fronts, both personal and historical, from the education of the senses to the construction of social justice.

Full textAbstract:
Arakawa and Gins, radical philosophers of the future, desire to construct life beyond the human condition. Their unique and original contribution to philosophy can be discerned most evidently in their concept of reversible destiny, an innovative response to our mortal condition. ‘We have decided not to die’, their ultimate declaration, is a testament not only to their architecture – an architecture predicated on the notion that death must be combated – but also, and perhaps most importantly, to its ability to teach us to think differently about the future. Even, and perhaps especially, the most fundamental and basic assumptions of our species are deliberately and evocatively called into question. It is this resistance to the present – in learning how not to die, in educating life differently – that will be addressed in this dissertation. The claim made here is that the highly instructive architectural philosophy of Arakawa and Gins produces a positive and useful philosophy of life, which orients us towards a new century of philosophy that operates beyond the human condition.

Full textAbstract:
The GINS complex (a heterotetramer of Sld5, Psf1, Psf2 and Psf3) is a highly conserved DNA replication factor required for the initiation and elongation of DNA replication. GINS is believed to associate with Cdc45 and MCM proteins on replicating DNA. The interaction between GINS and MCM is also conserved in archaea. In my thesis, I explore the subcellular localisation of the GINS complex in relation to the MCM proteins and sites of DNA replication by high-resolution confocal microscopy. For these studies, I generated and carefully validated purified rabbit polyclonal and mouse monoclonal antibodies; these show a specific staining pattern by immunohistochemistry, immunoblotting and immunofluorescence. At high-resolution, all GINS antibodies produced a focal nuclear pattern, similar to that seen for the MCMs. However, confusingly, colocalisation between GINS and MCMs and between the GINS subunits themselves is poor. Investigations are continuing to understand this conundrum. Given the value of MCM proteins as specific and sensitive markers for cancer screening, I investigated whether GINS subunits also have potential diagnostic value. Sld5 and Psf3 expression is restricted to the proliferative compartment in normal tissue, but is found in the majority of cells in a wide range of dysplastic and malignant tissues, including cervix, colon and bladder. In vitro studies of tissue culture cells and cell lysates incubated in urine suggest that Sld5 protein is more stable than Mcm2 in harsh extracellular environments. In an ongoing pilot clinical study of Sld5 protein as a potential biomarker, Sld5 is readily and specifically detectable in the cellular fraction of the samples from prostate and bladder cancer patients. Work is ongoing to evaluate Sld5 protein levels in the supernatant portion of those same urine samples as an easy-to-screen diagnostic/prognostic marker for male urogenital cancers. Owing to their stability, GINS proteins hold promise as independent or complementary markers to the MCM proteins for cancer screening in harsh extracellular environments such as urine.

Full textAbstract:
Agricultural operations across the United States are encountering difficulties complying with current air pollution regulations for particulate matter (PM). PM is currently regulated in terms of particle diameters less than or equal to a nominal 10 μm (PM10); however, current legislation is underway to regulate PM with diameters less than or equal to a nominal 2.5 μm (PM2.5). The goals of this research were to determine the biases and uncertainties associated with current PM10 and PM2.5 sampling methods and to determine the extent to which these errors may impact the determination of cotton gin emission factors.
Ideally, PM samplers would produce an accurate measure of the pollutant indicator; for instance, a PM10 sampler would produce an accurate measure of PM less than or equal to 10 μm. However, samplers are not perfect and errors are introduced because of the established tolerances associated with sampler performance characteristics and the interaction of particle size and sampler performance characteristics. Results of this research indicated that a source emitting PM characterized by a mass median diameter (MMD) of 20 μm and a geometric standard deviation (GSD) of 1.5 could be forced to comply with a 3.2 and 14 times more stringent regulation of PM10 and PM2.5, respectively, than a source emitting PM characterized by a MMD of 10 μm and a GSD of
1.5. These estimates are based on both sources emitting the same concentrations of true PM or concentrations corresponding to the particle diameters less than the size of interest.
Various methods were used to estimate the true PM10 and PM2.5 emission factors associated with cotton gin exhausts and the extent to which the sampler errors impacted the PM regulation. Results from this research indicated that current cotton gin emission factors could be over-estimated by about 40%. This over-estimation is a consequence of the relatively large PM associated with cotton gin exhausts. These PM sampling errors are contributing to the misappropriation of source emissions in State Implementation Plans, essentially forcing Air Pollution Regulatory Agencies to require additional controls on sources that may be incorrectly classified has high emitters.

Full textAbstract:
This study examines the waste of cotton gins as a potential alternative energy source, on account of its heat content, availability, and low emission rates. To confirm that this potential energy source meets minimum industrial fuel standards, this research has carried out an investigation of some important physical characteristics and toxic element analysis of cotton gin waste. Using cotton gin waste as fuel is an attractive solution to the problems of disposing of a surplus agricultural waste as well as supplementing fuel must meet both environmental emission standards and industrial fuel standards, the physical and chemical characteristics of cotton gin waste and its toxic element concentrations are important for its objective evaluation as a fuel. Constituent components, moisture contents, and ash contents of four separate parts of cotton gin waste were determined and evaluated closely following the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) test methods. The three most toxic heavy metals, Arsenic (As), Chromium (Cr), and Lead (Pb), chosen for quantitative analysis were determined by using an inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometry and a microwave oven sample digestion method.

La redistribution temporelle et spatiale des masses environnementales déforment la surface de la Terre. Ces déformations sont observables par des techniques de géodésie spatiale telles que le GNSS. Depuis que les produits d'orbite et d'horloge très précis de l'IGS sont disponibles, que des algorithmes sophistiqués ont été développés, l'iPPP a ouvert une nouvelle ère pour l'analyse du GNSS et pour son application dans les études géophysiques. Ce travail fait partie des premières études pour analyser les différents effets de surcharge, en utilisant des séries temporelles de positionnement, en particulier avec le logiciel GINS-PC et les nouveaux produits d'orbite et d'horloge REPRO2 du GRGS (GR2). Nous visons à exploiter les positions sub-diurnes d'iPPP pour étudier divers effets de déformation de la Terre à différentes échelles de temps: sub-diurne à saisonniers et annuels. Notre objectif est de contribuer à la validation des modèles géophysiques, à l'observation des différents phénomènes non-maréaux, mais aussi de présenter la performance du mode iPPP et du logiciel GINS-PC. Ce dernier est un outil puissant pour les applications géodynamiques, qui permet d'étudier l'influence des effets de surcharge sur l'interprétation géodésique des séries temporelles. Après un aperçu des principales déformations de la surface de la Terre, nous présentons les techniques de géodésie qui ont déjà démontré leur potentiel dans l'analyse de déformation, en particulier dans les études de déformation de surcharge. Nous présentons ensuite la technique de GNSS et le mode de traitement iPPP que nous utilisons pour l'analyse des données. Nous montrons ensuite les résultats de deux études régionales. La première analyse étudie l'influence des effets de surcharge sur la détermination des vitesses tectoniques dans la chaîne des Pyrénées à partir de campagnes GNSS espacées dans le temps. Le deuxième cas d'étude tente de suivre l'évolution spatiale et temporelle des déformations induites par un événement de tempête extrême, à savoir la tempête Xynthia qui a eu lieu en France en 2010. Cette étude tente également d'identifier la réponse dynamique de l'océan pour le système de basse pression atmosphérique se déplaçant rapidement en utilisant des séries temporelles sub-diurnes. Enfin, nous allons vers une étude globale qui pose les bases pour de futures recherchesThe temporal and spatial redistribution of the environmental masses deform the surface of the Earth. These deformations are observable by space geodetic techniques such as GNSS. Since highly accurate IGS satellite and clock data are available and sophisticated algorithms have been developped, the integer fixed ambiguity Precise Point Positioning (iPPP) method opened a new era for the Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) analysis and its application in geophysical studies. This work is among the first studies to investigate the different loading effects using iPPP time series, particularly using the GINS-PC software and the new, reprocessed REPRO2 orbit and clock products of GRGS (GR2). We aim to exploit the sub-daily iPPP time series to study various Earth deformation effects at different time scales, from sub-daily to seasonal and annual periods. Our goal is to contribute to the validation of geophysical models, to the observation of the various non-tidal phenomena, as well as the presentation of the performance of the iPPP mode and the GINS-PC package that is a powerful tool for geodynamical applications, and to investigate the influence of the loading effects on geodetic time series interpretation. After an overview of the main deformations of the Earth's surface, we present the geodetic techniques that already demonstrated their potential in deformation analysis, in particular in loading deformation studies. We then review the GNSS technique and the iPPP processing mode as it was our choice for the data analysis. We then demonstrate two regional studies. The first one investigates the influence of the loading effects on GNSS campaign to determine tectonic velocities in the Pyrenees mountain chain. The second case study attempts to track the spatial and temporal evolution of an extreme storm event, the Xynthia windstorm that occured in France, in 2010. This study also tries to identify the ocean's response to the fast moving low pressure system using sub-daily iPPP time series. Finally we go towards a global study which gives base for future research

Full textAbstract:
The CMG (Cdc45, MCM, GINS) helicase is required for cellular proliferation and functions to unwind double-stranded DNA to allow the replication machinery to duplicate the genome. Cancer cells mismanage helicase activation through a variety of mechanisms, leading to the potential for the development of novel anti-cancer treatments. Mammalian cells load an excess of MCM complexes that act as reserves for new replication origins to be created when replication forks stall due to stress conditions, such as drug treatment. Targeting the helicase through inhibition of the MCM complex has sensitized cancer cells to drugs that inhibit DNA replication, such as aphidicolin and hydroxyurea. However, these drugs are not used in the clinical management of cancer. We hypothesized that the effectiveness of the clinically relevant drugs gemcitabine and 5-FU against pancreatic cancer cells, and oxaliplatin and etoposide against colorectal cells, could be increased through co-suppression of the MCM complex. The oncogene c-Myc also leads to the mismanagement of CMG helicases in part due to a non-transcriptional role in overactivating replication origins and causing DNA damage. We sought to elucidate the mechanism by which Myc causes overactivation of CMG helicases.
Herein we demonstrate that co-suppression of reserve MCM complexes in pancreatic or colorectal cancer cell lines treated with clinically applicable chemotherapeutic compounds causes significant loss of proliferative capacity compared with cells containing the full complement of reserve MCMs. This is in part due to an inability to recover DNA replication following drug exposure, leading to an increase in apoptosis. Targeting of Myc to genomic sites induced large-scale decondensation of higher order chromatin that was required for CMG helicase assembly and activation at reserve MCM complexes. The physiological mediators of Myc, GCN5 and Tip60, are required for the chromatin unfolding and Cdc45 recruitment.
We conclude that depletion of the reserve MCM complexes causes chemosensitization of multiple human tumor cell types to several chemotherapeutic drugs used in the clinical management of human cancer. This argues for the development and use of anti-MCM drugs in combination with chemotherapeutic compounds, which has the potential to increase the therapeutic index of existing clinical compounds. We have also identified a previously unknown role for Myc in normal cell cycle progression whereby DNA replication initiation is regulated through the assembly and activation of CMG helicases on Myc-mediated open chromatin regions. Our results also provide new mechanistic insight into Myc oncogenic transformation in which overstimulation of DNA replication could result in genomic instability and provide an explanation for Myc driven oncogenic transformation.

Full textAbstract:
Fanconi anemia (FA) is a congenital disease characterized by bone marrow failure, increased cancer risk and hypersensitivity to DNA cross-linking agents, implying a role for this pathway in the maintenance of genomic stability. The central player of the FA pathway is the multi-subunit E3 ubiquitin ligase complex that is activated through a replication and DNA-damage dependent mechanism. A consequence of the activation of the complex is the monoubiquitination of FANCD2 and FANCI, late term effectors in the maintenance of genome integrity. We find that PSF2 and CSN3 interact with the core complex subunit FANCF in a yeast two-hybrid system. PSF2 is a member of the GINS complex, which is essential both for the initiation and elongation steps of DNA replication. CSN3 is a subunit of the COP9 signalosome (CSN), the regulator of cullin-based ubiquitin ligases. These interactions have been confirmed by co-immunoprecipitation in human cells. We observed a decreased binding to chromatin of the FA core complex in HeLa cells depleted for PSF2, suggesting that the GINS complex may have a role in either loading or stabilizing the FA core complex onto chromatin. However, depletion of PSF2 did not reduce monoubiquitination of FANCD2 or its localization to nuclear foci following DNA damage. On the contrary, depletion of the CSN leads to an increase of monoubiquitinated FANCD2 in normal growth conditions. Our results suggest that PSF2 and CSN3 are novel interacting proteins of the FA core complex.

I takt med att GIS (Grafiska InformationsSystem) blir allt vanligare och mer användarvänligt har WM-data sett att kunder skulle ha intresse i att kunna koppla information från sin verksamhet till en kartbild. Detta för att lättare kunna ta till sig informationen om hur den geografiskt finns utspridd över ett område för att t.ex. ordna effektivare tranporter. WM-data, som det här arbetet är utfört åt, avser att ta fram en prototyp som sedan kan visas upp för att påvisa för kunder och andra intressenter att detta är möjligt att genomföra genom att skapa en integration mellan redan befintliga system. I det här arbetet har prototypen tagits fram med skogsindustrin och dess lager som inriktning. Befintliga program som integrationen ska skapas mellan är båda webbaserade och körs i en webbläsare. Analysprogrammet som ska användas heter Insikt och är utvecklat av företaget Trimma, kartprogrammet heter GIMS som är WM-datas egna program. Det ska vara möjligt att i Insikt analysera data och skapa en rapport. Den ska sedan skickas till GIMS där informationen skrivs ut på kartan på den plats som respektive information hör till. Det ska även gå att välja ut ett eller flera områden i kartan och skicka till Insikt för att analysera information från enbart de utvalda områdena. En prototyp med önskad funktionalitet har under arbetets gång tagits fram, men för att ha en säljbar produkt är en del arbeta kvar. Prototypen har visats för ett antal intresserade som tyckte det var intressant och tror att det är något som skulle kunna användas flitigt inom många områden.

In this work, we propose a Geographical Information System that can be used as a tool for the treatment and study of problems related with environmental and city management issues. It is based on the Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) standard for Web development of graphics. The project uses the concept of remate and real-time mar creation by database access through instructions executed by browsers on the Internet. As a way of proving the system effectiveness, we present two study cases;.the first on a region named Maracaja? Coral Reefs, located in Rio Grande do Norte coast, and the second in the Switzerland Northeast in which we intended to promote the substitution of MapServer by the system proposed here. We also show some results that demonstrate the larger geographical data capability achieved by the use of the standardized codes and open source tools, such as Extensible Markup Language (XML), Document Object Model (DOM), script languages ECMAScript/ JavaScript, Hypertext Preprocessor (PHP) and PostgreSQL and its extension, PostGIS

Full textAbstract:
Consumer studies are well known to assume non-homothetic preferences in their models, as the demand for a good can not be determined by assuming a single representative consumer. The question of how to include non-homothetic preferences into an empirical model for international trade is of importance as if not, the model exclude the demand side reason for trade. And does the effect look different regarding different types of goods. A significant share of countries GDP and the economic growth of a country is relying on trade; hence this question could be of great interest in order to determine trade policies. This thesis endeavoured to estimate the effect of income inequality in both exports and imports regarding one good classified as a luxury and necessity respectively. To accomplish this a Gravity model of trade that includes income distribution is conducted on the basis of an article by Mitra and Trindade(2005). Fixed effect analyses was implemented in order to analyse the data. Data on exports for the years 1995, 2000, 2005 and 2008-2011 gathered from the OECD databank was used in the study together with data on GDP per capita, Gini and population size provided by The World Bank Group. The analyses is based on the estimates of 41 countries.

Full textAbstract:
Avfall i stort har fått en annan innebörd i dag jämfört med tidigare decennier i och med att det nu går att återanvända, återvinna och utvinna energi ur det. Gips är ett avfall som förekommer som brandskydd i stor omfattning och förut gick majoriteten på deponi. Nya alternativ har dykt upp det är dock fortfarande mycket som går på deponi och det medför miljöproblem, främst i form av läckage av svavel. Syftet med studien var att genom telefonintervjuer se hur hanteringen av gipsavfall uppfattas av aktörer inom byggbranschen, hantering och transport av avfall och olika återvinningscentraler. Men även att se vilka miljörisker de olika aktörerna anser att gipsavfall kan leda till. De aktörer som intervjuades var inom området bygg; NCC, inom området hantering och transport av avfall; Sita och Ragn-Sells, inom området återvinningscentraler; en återvinningscentral från Uppsala och en från Malmö. Slutsatsen blev att aktörerna först och främst försöker återvinna gipset, går inte det är det deponering som är det sätt varpå gipsavfall hanteras. En aktör blandar in gips i konstruktionsmaterial för vägar för att på så sätt minimera avfallet och återanvända det redan befintliga avfallet. Alla aktörer är medvetna om att gips måste hanteras på rätt sätt för att miljöriskerna ska begränsas. I viss grad lakar ämnen alltid ur från deponier och detta bör hållas under uppsikt för att eventuella risker snabbt ska kunna åtgärdas om halterna överstiger föreslagna gränsvärden.

FREIJ, LINE, and SANNA PETTERSSON. "MATERIALHANDBOK : För Gina Tricot." Thesis, Högskolan i Borås, Institutionen Textilhögskolan, 2010. http://urn.kb.se/resolve?urn=urn:nbn:se:hb:diva-20164.
Full textAbstract:
Idén till arbetet föddes när vi var inne i en av Gina Tricots butiker, då en kund frågade personalen hur mycket ett par jeans som hon skulle prova kunde töja sig. Kunden kunde inte få något fullständigt svar på sin fråga, utan den anställde svarade ”lite”. Utöver detta har vi även fått uppfattningen av att personalen är mindre kunnig om bland annat de olika material som företaget använder sig av. Vi anser då att en materialhandbok kan vara lösningen på detta problem. Vi vill att Gina Tricots personal ska bli mer kunnig inom textil och därmed kunna hjälpa kunderna på ett korrekt och professionellt sätt.I nära samarbete med vår externa, samt interna handledare har vi kommit fram till de delar som materialhandboken består av. Dessa är väv, trikå och grovstickat, de olika naturfibrer, konstfibrer samt blandmaterial som företaget använder sig av, obehandlad och behandlad denim, samt färgning och tryckning. Utöver dessa punkter har vi även valt att ha med påmonterade detaljer, tvättsymboler, frågor och svar, såväl som en skötselöversikt. Under de olika fibrerna finns även underrubriker, såsom egenskaper och skötselråd, för att lättare kunna finna den information man söker.Det har varit viktigt att hitta en balans för att få med så mycket information som möjligt, utan att det blir för tungt för personalen. Likaså var det med språket, det vill säga att få fram en så innehållsrik text som möjligt, men utan för svåra ord, då alla i personalen ska förstå innebörden av texten utan några tveksamheter. Materialhandboken är även gjord på så sätt att man inte behöver läsa från pärm till pärm för att förstå innehållet. Allt för att den ska vara så användarvänlig som möjligt.The idea was born when we were at Gina Tricot, and a customer asked one of the staff how much a pair of jeans will stretch that she wanted to try on. The customer could not get a complete answer to her question, but the employee said "a bit". In addition, we also had the perception that the staff are untaught of, inter alia, the various materials the company uses. We thought a handbook of textiles was the best idea as a solution for this problem. We want Gina Tricots staff to become more knowledgeable in the textiles and thus be able to help customers in an accurate and professional manner.Working closely with our external and internal trainers, we have figured out what the handbook of textiles consists of. These are fabric, knitted and rough knits, the different natural fibers, artificial fibers and mixed fibers that the company uses, untreated and treated denim, as well as dyeing and printing. Beyond these points, we have also chosen details, laundry symbols, questions and answers, as well as a maintenance overview. Below the different fibers are their characteristics and care, to more easily find the information you seek.It has been important to find a balance in order to get as much information as possible in the handbook of textiles, without making it too complicated for the staff. It was similarly with the language, that is, to produce a text as rich as possible, but without the difficult words, when all of the staff should understand the meaning of the text without any doubt. The handbook of textiles is also designed so that it is not necessary to read from cover to cover to understand the content, to make it as user friendly as possible.

Simultan?ment ? l' expulsion des j?suites du contr?les de l' ?ducaton formeI du royaume portugais, l'Ordre du 28 juin 1759 a d?cr?t? une reforme g?n?rale aux ?tudes, comme une des partie d'un ensemble de mesures modernisatoires qui ont ?t? ?tablisent dans le Royaume et dans ses domaines ? la p?riode comprise entre 1750 et 1777, pendant le royaume de D. Jos? I et sous la direction de son principal ministre, Sebasti?o Jos? Carvalho e MeIo, plus connu par le titre de noblesse de Marquis de Pombal. Notre th?se, locaIis?e notament ? la Capitanie de Bahia (Capitanie - division politique administrative du Br?sil Colonie) entre les ann?es de 1759 ? 1827, a comme objet d'?tudes les singularit?s du magist?re bahianais et comme objectif, ? partir de Ia r?f?rence th?orique de l'histoire sociale des id?es, comprendre comment les membres de cette nouvelle cat?gorie professionelle, cr?e pour pr?par?s des cadres professionels mais bien qualifi?s pour exercer leurs fonctions de burocratie de l'?tat, ont pris contact avec la pens?e reforniste ilustr? portugais du si?cle XVIII, ont ?t? v?hicul? autant par des ?trang?ris?s, comme par la l?gislation pombalina (du Marquis de Pombal) et comme cet ensembIe th?orique rapport? ? la pens?e, la vie et le travail d'enseignant de ces premiers repr?sentants du magist?re bahianais. L' analyse de la documentation (des lettres, et des ordres royals, des licences officielles pour exercer la fonction, et des serments des professeurs royal pour les plusieurs villages et capitanies; registres de correspondence re?ues et envoy?es par les chambres des villages; registres et correspondences exp?di?es par plusieurs autorit?s; provisions; tous les types de licences et autorisations; d?signation; testament et inventaires) montre que les professeurs royals, malgr? la quantit? pas tr?s nombreuses de membres, ont ?t? extremement actifs sur les d?cisions les plus importantes de la p?riode de celle qui est connue comme la crise du syst?me colonial, qui, en Bahia, a eu ses particularit?s dans un mouvement d' ?mancipation politique seulement au mois de juillet 1823. Finallement, on a le but, dans le contenu de cette th?se de doctorat, d'offrir une connaissance sur l'histoire de l'?ducation br?silienne et bahianaise qu' on retrouve encore entour? de doutes, pr?jugements et imterpretations ?quivoques qui insistent d'anaIyser le Br?sil sous un stigmate du retard du royaume portugais, malgr? sa production r?cente dans l'historiographie
Concomitante com a expuls?o dos jesu?tas do controle da educa??o formal no reino portugu?s, o Alvar? de 28 de junho de 1759 decretou uma reforma geral nos estudos, parte de um conjunto de medidas modernizadoras estabelecidas no Reino e em seus dom?nios no per?odo compreendido entre 1750 e 1777, durante o reinado de D. Jos? I e sob a orienta??o do seu principal ministro, Sebasti?o Jos? Carvalho e Melo, mais conhecido pelo t?tulo nobili?rquico de Marqu?s de Pombal. Nossa tese, circunscrita espacialmente a Capitania da Bahia entre os anos de 1759 a 1827, tem como objeto de estudo as singularidades do magist?rio baiano e objetiva, a partir do referencial te?rico da hist?ria social das id?ias, compreender como os membros dessa nova categoria profissional, criada para preparar quadros mais bem qualificados para exercerem os cargos da burocracia estatal, tomaram contato com o pensamento reformista-ilustrado portugu?s do s?culo XVIII, tanto o veiculado pelos estrangeirados, como pela legisla??o pombalina e como este ide?rio esteve relacionado com o pensamento, a vida e o trabalho docente desses primeiros representantes do magist?rio p?blico baiano. A an?lise da documenta??o (cartas e ordens r?gias, termos de posse e juramento de professores r?gios para as v?rias vilas da capitania; registros de correspond?ncias recebidas e expedidas pelas c?maras das vilas; registros de correspond?ncia expedida e recebida por autoridades diversas; provis?es; alvar?s; registros; peti??es; nomea??es; licen?as; testamentos e invent?rios) revela que os professores r?gios, apesar do reduzido n?mero de membros, foram sumamente ativos nas decis?es mais importantes do per?odo da chamada crise do sistema colonial, que, na Bahia, teve desdobramentos peculiares num movimento de emancipa??o pol?tica apenas culminado em julho de 1823. Por fim, pretende-se, nesta tese de doutorado, propiciar um conhecimento sobre a hist?ria da educa??o brasileira e baiana que, apesar da recente produ??o historiogr?fica, ainda se encontra envolta em d?vidas, preconceitos e chav?es derivados de interpreta??es que insistem em analisar o Brasil sob o estigma do atraso do reino portugu?s

Full textAbstract:
I denna studie har två olika GIS-verktygslådor och två typer av kartmaterial jämförts för attundersöka hur väl de kan användas till att modellera ekologisk konnektivitet på kommunnivå.Verktygslådorna som jämförts är Matrixgreen 1.6.4, en extension till ArcGIS 9.3.1, och ODC,ett urval av verktygen från ArcGIS Spatial Analyst. Som bakgrundsmaterial användes tvåolika typer av data, dels Svensk MarktäckeData (SMD) och dels en vegetationskarteringspecifikt framställd för ändamålet baserat på IRF-bilder. Syftet med studien är att försökaidentifiera en optimal metod för att analysera och kartera ekologisk konnektivitet utifrån demöjligheter och begränsningar som respektive verktygslåda och kartmaterial erbjuder, medtekniska förutsättningar liknande en kommunal tjänstemans. Jämförelserna är gjorda både urett kvalitativt användarvänlighetsperspektiv, och ur ett kvantitativt resultatperspektiv däranalysernas kvalitet och resurseffektivitet bedömts.Resultatet av jämförelserna visar att en analys utförd med Matrixgreen, mjukvara designadspeciellt för att modellera ekologisk konnektivitet är mindre kvalitetsmässigt tillförlitlig än enanalys gjord med ODC. Anledningen till detta är att Matrixgreen i sin nuvarande form ärbegränsat av programmeringsfel, vilket delvis förtar dess användningspotential. I jämförelsenmellan de olika typerna av kartmaterial så är det min uppfattning att vegetationskarteringenutförd med stereotolkning är kvalitetsmässigt överlägsen marktäckesdata från SMD somunderlagsmaterial i ekologiska konnektivitetsanalyser. Den förstnämnda är dock såresurskrävande att framställa att den troligtvis bara är ett aktuellt alternativ i projekt med storbudget.Two different tool boxes using GIS were compared with the purpose of modeling ecologicalconnectivity. Additionally, two different sets of landscape data which could be used in GISmodeling of ecological connectivity at a municipal level were compared. The toolboxes arebeing compared is the Matrixgreen 1.6.4, an extension to ArcGIS 9.3.1, and ODC (Object,Distance, Cost), a selection of tools from the ArcGIS Spatial Analyst. The map data beingcompared is the Swedish Land Cover Data (Svensk MarktäckeData, SMD) and a vegetationmapping prepared by remote sensing and stereo interpretation of infrared aerial photographs.The purpose of this study is to identify an optimal method for analyzing and mappingecological connectivity based on the potentials and limitations that each tool box and mapdata set provides, under technical conditions similar to those of a municipal official’s.Comparisons were made both from a qualitative usability perspective, and a quantitativeperformance perspective with analysis of the quality and resource efficiency assessed.The results of the comparisons indicates that an analysis performed with Matrixgreen,software designed specifically for modeling ecological connectivity is qualitatively lessreliable than an analysis performed with ODC. The reason for this is that Matrixgreen in itspresent form is limited by programming errors, which partly deprives its potential use as toolsto perform connectivity analysis at a landscape scale. In the comparison between the differenttypes of map data, it is my opinion that the vegetation mapping conducted by stereointerpretation is qualitatively superior to land cover data from the SMD as support material inan ecological connectivity analysis. Although, the former is so expensive to produce that it islikely only a relevant option in projects with large budgets.

Tarptautinių atsiskaitymų banko (BIS) Bazelio II susitarimo nuostatos dėl bankų minimalaus kapitalo apibrėžia reikalavimus kredito rizikos skaičiavimui. Kredito rizikos vertinimo metodai leidžia naudoti vidines įmonių reitingavimo sistemas. Vienas svarbiausių reitingavimo modelio uždavinių – į modelį parinkti tokius finansinius ar nefinansinius rodiklius, kurie geriausiai klasifikuotų įmones pagal jų finansinio pajėgumo lygį. Populiariausias statistinis atrankos rodiklis yra tikslumo koeficientas dar vadinamas Gini indeksu. Tradicinis Gini indeksas buvo apibrėžtas 1914 m. ir iki šiol yra naudojamas pajamų nelygybei populiacijoje apskaičiuoti. 1995 m. Mosleris ir Koševojus pristatė k-matį Gini indekso analogą kaip zonoido tūrį. Šio darbo tikslas – naudojantis zonoidų teorijos idėjomis sukonstruoti apibendrintą reitingavimo modelių Gini indeksą. Pirmoje darbo dalyje pateiktos tradicinės Lorenco kreivės bei Gini indekso sąvokos ir Gini indekso apibendrinimai. Antroje darbo dalyje pagal BIS naudojamas reitingavimo modelio galios sąvokas, apibrėžtas reitingavimo modelio Gini indeksas. Be to, apibrėžti Lorenco kreivės apatinės ir viršutinės aproksimacijų Gini indeksai bei sudaryti šių indeksų apibendrinimai – normos bei tūrio daugiamačiai Gini indeksai. Pabaigoje analizuojamas atskirų finansinių rodiklių Gini indeksų stabilumas bei bendras Gini indeksų – vienamčio, normos ir tūrio – stabilumas ir pateikiamos išvados.Bank for International Settlements (BIS) Basel II resolutions on banks regulatory capital include requirements for credit risk calculation. Credit risk evaluation methods define the possibility of using the internal rating system. One of the main tasks to build the powerful scoring model is to select financial and non-financial factors that appropriately classify companies according to their financial situation. The most popular statistical measure used for discriminatory analysis is the accuracy ratio or Gini index. General Gini index presented in 1914 is still widely applied to measure income inequality in the population. The k-dimensional analogue of Gini index as volume of zonoid was defined only in 1995 by Mosler and Koshevoy. The main purpose of this paper is to build the generalized Gini index of scoring model following the theory of zonoids. In the first part of the paper the usual Lorenz curve, traditional Gini index and its summary measures are presented. The second part presents the definition of the scoring models Gini index according to scoring model power measures applied in BIS resolutions. Furthermore the Gini indexes of Lorenz curve bottom and top approximations are defined and two its summary measures – norm and volume Gini indexes are constructed. Finally the stability of separate financial ratios Gini indexes and the general stability of univariate, norm and volume Gini indexes are analysed and final conclusions are presented.

Full textAbstract:
Jordens ökande befolkning utnyttjar jordens begränsade naturresurser allt mer, det skapar behov av resurseffektivitet. EU har angett i direktiv att minst 70% av icke-farligt avfall från byggsektorn senast år 2020 ska enligt prioriteringsordning återanvändas, materialåtervinnas eller energiåtervinnas. Ett av de vanligaste byggmaterialen är standardgipsskivan som används invändigt för vägg- och takbeklädnad. Gipsskivan har positiva egenskaper vad gäller ljudisolering och brandtålighet. Det gipsavfall som uppstår vid rivning/renovering, nybyggnationer och nyproduktion hamnar idag antingen på återvinning eller deponi. Kraven för deponering av gipsavfall har skärpts sedan 2012 varvid gips endast får deponeras i enskilda celler avskilt från avfall med organiskt innehåll eftersom det finns risk för oönskad gasbildning. Gips Recycling är den största aktören inom gipsåtervinningsbranschen och tar emot det mesta av gipsavfallet (Löf 2014) men endast en liten andel av allt gipsavfall från byggsektorn återvinns idag. Wiklunds Åkeri, som författarna samarbetar med, arbetar med avfall från byggarbetsplatser och har önskemål om att undersöka andra möjliga återvinningsområden. Denna studie är av en kvalitativ karaktär med en deduktiv ansats. I detta arbete har författarna undersökt tre alternativa återvinningsområden för gips: jordbruk, cement, bränsleadditiv. Författarna har undersökt om återvinningsgips (går även under namnet returgips) kan användas som kalkprodukter i jordbruk, gips i cementtillverkning och bränslekomponent i biobränsleanläggningar. En intervju med Gips Recycling har genomförts och 17 forskare och professorer inom de tre områdena har besvarat frågor enligt e-formulären som författarna skickat dem. Intervjun och svaren på frågeformulären har analyserats och redovisas som resultat. Från dem har författarna dragit slutsatser huruvida returgips kan eller inte kan användas inom respektive återvinningsområde och vilka eventuella hinder som finns. Vid tillverkning av gipsskivor används råvaror som naturgips och en restprodukt som uppstår vid industriella processer, industrigips. Det finns risk att olika tungmetaller överförs till industrigipset från de industriella processerna för att senare hamna i returgipset. Bästa sättet att återvinna gips är nytillverkning av nya gipsskivor. Fastän returgips kan tillföra värdefulla näringsämnen till jordbruk är det idag olämpligt att använda eftersom grödor skulle kunna ta upp de spår av tungmetaller och andra föroreningar som kan förekomma i returgips. Föroreningar av kartong och tillsatser i tillverkning av gipsskivor gör returgips även olämpligt att använda vid cementtillverkning. Sista återvinning området författarna har undersökt är gips som bränsleadditiv. Här finns en potential för att återvinna, men pågående forskning bör avslutas innan säkra slutsatser kan dras. Ett hinder är dock nuvarande lagstiftning som behöver ändras innan returgips kan användas som bränsleadditiv. Nyckelord: Gips,

Full textAbstract:
The Probabilistic Infinite Slope Analysis model (PISA-m) is a widely used computer program that uses infinite slope equations to calculate the spatially varying Factor of Safety of slopes. ESRI’s ArcGIS software and accompanying geoprocessing tools have become a mainstay in spatial data processing, and received full support for Python with the release of version 10. With many of the geoprocessing tools now available as a Python function, the software can be used for physics-based spatial landslide hazard analysis. A model that mimics PISA-m and its processing of normally distributed soil properties was created using the Python utility as a tool for ArcGIS. The newly created ArcGIS tool is referred as the GIS Tool for Infinite Slope Stability Analysis (GIS-TISSA). The tool was tested using the example data from PISA-m and case-study data from the district of Kannur, Kerala, India. The results from both areas highlight how different slope calculations can affect the overall calculation of the Factor of Safety, as well as the new model’s ability to accurately predict Factor of Safety of slopes in an area.

Full textAbstract:
Denna rapport presenterar ett examensarbete på D-nivå där uppdragsgivaren har varit WM-data Consulting och kunden Vägverket Produktion.Vägverket har ett antal olika applikationer för geografisk information som ligger utspridda på företagets hemsida . För att samla alla applikationer på ett och samma ställe fick vi i uppdrag att göra en grundläggande utredning av en GIS-portal. Denna portal ska fungera som en enhetlig ingång där kartdata samkörs och visualiseras. Ytterligare en del i uppdraget var att utreda vad som borde förändras och förbättras i den redan existerande tjänsten Beläggning på vägarna. Denna tjänst kommer att fungera som en testapplikation för GIS-portalen.Målen med examensarbetet var att utreda vilka krav som finns på en GIS-portal och applikationen Beläggning på vägarna samt att beskriva de önskemål som finns på dessa. Ett designförslag och en funktionsbeskrivning arbetades fram för både tjänsten Beläggning på vägarna och för GIS-portalen. Utredningen kommer att ligga till grund för utveckling av en GIS-portal samt fortsatt utveckling och förbättringar av tjänsten Beläggning på vägarna.För att komma fram till ett resultat har vi använt oss av ett antal teorier om IT-tjänster, systemarkitektur och användbarhet. Förutom dessa teorier har även de intervjuer som utförts spelat en stor roll för vårt arbete. Vi har lagt en bra grund för Vägverket att fortsätta arbetet med utveckling av en GIS-portal och tjänsten Beläggning på vägarna.

The geographical information system GRASS has become a standard on the field of geographical phenomenon modeling during its 26 years old lifetime. However, its internal structure follows practices from the date of its creation. This thesis aims to design a possible shape of internal parts modernization using a component architecture and object-oriented design patterns with distributed computing and dynamic languages support in mind. The designed system should stay identical from the user's point-of-view. Design results are proven on a prototype library implementation called the GAL Framework.

This dissertation provides a grounded examination of an evolving geographic information systems (GIS) discourse to examine how it affects decision-making processes in the context of resource management and urban planning issues, and whether the use of GIS is empowering or marginalizing for social groups involved in these processes. By using Foucault's genealogical and critical approaches to study discourse, GIS discourse is reconstructed. From the genealogy approach four discontinuities, the role of positivism, the social construction of GIS technology, the role of GIS manufacturers and vendors, and the institutionalization of GIS are examined to show how they have shaped the discourse. The critical approach uncovers how GIS discourse limits participation in decision-making processes through three systems of exclusions: prohibition, rejection and will to truth. These systems of exclusion legitimate particular knowledge, values and views that can be readily incorporated into a GIS. Typically it is the knowledge, values and views held by more dominant social groups that are privileged by GIS discourse, since they can be expressed in terms that are readily digitizable with no distortion in meaning. Hence, decisions based on the use of GIS tend to empower these groups because outcomes are in line with their interests. Using the Riparian Habitat Protection Ordinance and the Comprehensive Plan from Pima County, Arizona as case studies, this dissertation shows that GIS discourse systematically marginalizes weaker social groups. GIS discourse establishes the boundaries of the debates by shaping the way in which these issues were framed, dictating the data to use and the criteria to evaluate the data, and legitimating the participation of certain social groups. In both case studies social groups who argued from outside these boundaries were marginalized. An examination of power relations among actors reveals which actors can exercise power through decision-making, and that GIS discourse attempts to conceal moments when conscious decisions are made regarding the use of GIS. These moments are opportunities for contestations to occur, but since GIS discourse attempts to hide them, the use of GIS appears to be natural. GIS discourse is also articulated and reinforced through its intersection with local political and economic discourses.

The aim of this thesis is to create a noise map in a geographic information system. First of all, physical features of sound and the basics concerning the spatial, physiological and atmospheric acoustics domain will be introduced. Furthermore, we will analyse noise and its possible influence on the health of people. Substantial part of this thesis will be devoted to the methodology of noise measurement in urban agglomerations and to the issue of creating noise maps. The methodology of noise measurement in a particular area will be determined on the basis of the theoretical background. Geographic information system ArcView 9.2 from the ARCDATA firm (Ltd.) will be used for creating the noise map. The final noise map will be compared to the current hygienic limits. For comparison reasons an analysis of noise map using software CadnaA, which is used in professional analysis of noise studies, will be included in this thesis too.

The thesis deals with geographical information systems ( GIS) which are nowadays common tools for use in civil service and local administration. The theoretical part is focused on more detailed characterization of these systems including issues concerning geographical data and data base systems. The description of the particular GIS software solution for the selected village of Dolní Újezd in the application of ArcInfo is the main contain of the practical sections. The creation of spatial analysis is a component of the project with the aim of finding a suitable location for benches for public use. The resulting project called “GIS Dolní Újezd”wil be used by the local council in Dolní Újezd.

One of the most common ways to produce heat and electricity in Europe today is by the incineration of waste or combustion of coal. These materials can be very sulfurous and during combustion sulfur dioxide is produced. This is an environmental and health related toxic substance which is why power plants have strict regulations on removing it from the flue gas. Sulfur dioxide is removed from the flue gas by adding a limestone reagent. The sulfur dioxide reacts with the limestone and the synthetic product obtained is “Flue Gas Desulfurization gypsum”. This byproduct, from combustion, provides an environmentally friendly solution when used in building material such as plasterboards. The FGD gypsum that is being used in different types of building materials does not derive from waste incinerated power plants. We have more than 30 of these in Sweden and some of them get FGD gypsum as a byproduct. The purpose of this thesis was to find out whether a particular waste incineration plant in Sweden can reuse their gypsum waste instead of disposing it at landfill.
