Henson, Jamie. "Remorse and the courts : a defence of remorse-based sentencing." Thesis, University of Manchester, 2018. https://www.research.manchester.ac.uk/portal/en/theses/remorse-and-the-courts-a-defence-of-remorsebased-sentencing(e9a39498-491d-4959-8d43-d690aba0727d).html.
Abstract:
This thesis defends the central claim that remorse ought to be considered a mitigating factor in sentencing decisions. I advocate a communicative approach to punishment, arguing that it is important that the state attempts to enter into a moral dialogue with those that it punishes and that this requires state actors to be receptive to offender-remorse. I contend that this requires us to accept a weak form of character retributivism and acknowledge that certain limited aspects of an offender's character impact upon their blameworthiness. In making these arguments I look at the nature of remorse and its relationship to apology, alongside the role that remorse currently plays within the courts. I also discuss the role of shame in the courts, the role of mercy in sentencing and argue that there is a correlation between remorse and reduced recidivism.

Fetterolf, Elianna. "Remorse : a prospective genealogy." Thesis, University of Sheffield, 2014. http://etheses.whiterose.ac.uk/9981/.
Abstract:
Although moral philosophy has seen an upsurge of work in moral emotions, remorse is significantly neglected. Part of what explains the neglect, I argue, is a commitment to a narrow, ultimately distorted, conception of remorse. Central to my line of argument is the idea that what makes remorse distinctively moral is its special focus with those directly affected by what one has done. Foregrounding this claim, however, reveals the narrow conception to be detached from what is widely taken to ground it. If we preserve the special moral character of remorse two controversial conclusions follow: (i) that the scope of remorse is broader than standardly taken to be, and, (ii) that the ubiquitous assumption that remorse is merely the first-personal mirror of justified blame comes into problematic doubt. New lines of debate concerning the adequacy of the narrow conception as well as key objections against moral theories committed to it are opened.

Maslen, Hannah E. "Remorse and retribution : justifying mitigation at sentencing." Thesis, University of Oxford, 2011. http://ora.ox.ac.uk/objects/uuid:4afcd2ac-cfda-4361-92aa-4b5825442bbe.
Abstract:
Remorse can be a powerful source of mitigation at sentencing. However, there is a lack of formal justification for this practice and a paucity of theoretical literature engaging with this issue. Addressing this gap, this thesis offers a comprehensive justification for why an offender’s remorse should mitigate the punishment he receives. It begins by discussing the emotion of remorse – its nature and value. With reference to broadly-retributive theories of punishment, it then considers various arguments that could be offered to justify the mitigating effect of remorse on the offender’s sentence. It rejects two arguments: either remorse constitutes some of the offender’s deserved punishment or remorse reduces the seriousness of the offence. Instead, it develops a justification inspired by philosophical work distinguishing blameworthiness and blaming. The thesis argues that, in the context of sentencing, a broadly-conceived dialogical model of censure is the most legitimate. Remorse, as the offender’s ideal input into the dialogue about the offence, modifies the subsequent censure required. If censure seeks a response, and this response is already forthcoming, to nonetheless continue to seek this response as if it were absent devalues the censure. Von Hirsch and Ashworth’s assertions that censure appeals to the offender as a rational moral agent, and their adherence to certain quasiretributive values, are shown to provide further support for these arguments. If the deserved censure is mitigated, then so is the corresponding punishment communicating this censure. The thesis next explores how this justification for mitigation compares with ‘mercy’ justifications, arguing that the justification offered in this thesis operates more internally to deserved censure, and is more principled, so is preferable on these grounds. In conclusion, the thesis considers the implications of its arguments for sentencing practice and whether it is a concern that they are valid only within ‘censure’ theories of punishment.

Wolff, Kathleen. "The Lived Experience of Remorse Among Male, Adolescent Offenders: A Phenomenological Inquiry." Diss., University of Hawaii at Manoa, 2011. http://hdl.handle.net/10125/22073.
Abstract:
Remorse continues to play an important role in the legal system and in offender rehabilitation; yet, it remains an understudied concept. Research related to remorse at the phenomenological level is sparse and studies that focus on youthful offenders are nearly non-existent. The purpose of this study was to describe the essence of the lived experience of male, adolescent offenders, who have experienced the phenomenon of remorse in the context of their crimes. Colaizzi‟s descriptive, phenomenological approach to inquiry and analysis guided this qualitative study. Narratives from in-depth, semi-structured interviews with 13 male, African American and European American, ages 16-18 year-old offenders placed in privately owned Residential Treatment Programs served as data. Eight clusters of themes and 18 themes emerged from the data and provided rich descriptions of the remorse experience among this population. Findings supported the positive and negative aspects of remorse noted in the literature. Implications for future nursing research, nursing practice, and policy were provided.

White, Frances Clare Patricia. "'Past forgiving?' : the experience of remorse in the writings of Iris Murdoch." Thesis, Kingston University, 2010. http://eprints.kingston.ac.uk/20274/.
Abstract:
This thesis identifies the concept of remorse as critically significant in Iris Murdoch's moral psychology and art. It analyses the function of remorse as the counterpoint to love, which Murdoch defines as attention to the reality of the other, and demonstrates the potential remorse to induce 'unselfing' which leads to the Good. Close readings of selected texts which manifest Murdoch's developing concern with remorse engage in dialogues with simone Weil's analysis of affliction and with contemporary philosophical, theological and psychological theories of remorse. These dialogues, which differentiate chronic and lucid forms of remorse, establish Murdoch's innovative contribution to what is herein identified as emerging field of remorse studies. The study begins by demonstrating Murdoch's releance to current philosophical debate on remorse with reference to The Nice and the and The Philosopher's Pupil. It proceeds to explore how her 'neo-theology' links remorse with the concepts of repentance and forgiveness, discussed with reference to A Wordand The Book and the Brotherhood. A discussion of contemporary discourses of trauma theory and 'primal wounding' follows, which classifies The Good Apprentice as her Ur-text on lucid remorse, explores how The Green Knight engages with the concomitant issue of remorse, and contends that Murdoch's work warrants inclusion within the genre of trauma fiction. An investigation into Murdoch's parallel concern with Holocaust narratives and Heidegger's lack of remorse in The Message to the Planet, Jackson's Dilemma and Heidegger: The Pursuit of Being (her unpublished manuscript) follows, which relates herto current Holocaust theory and argues that her fiction merits inclusion within the 'third category' of Holocaust literature. Finally, biographical factors in Murdoch's increasing stress remorse and her mystical presentation of remorse in The One Alone endorse the importance remorse accrues in her moral vision and substantiate the claim that remorse acts ethical index in Murdoch's philosophy, while her fictional dramatisations of remorse invite an ethical response from readers and offer a form of bibliotherapy for the commonwoe of remorse.

Abstract:
The factors behind the increasingly low confidence for the real estate broker in spite of longer education and higher admission requirements are of both internal and external character. By internal factors, I refer to real estate broker's attitude towards customers and underestimation of customers' expectations as well as too much focus on high commission. By external factors with a tremendeous impact on this branch, I mean economic cycles, political and financial decisions taken by different authorities. This study is meant to make us understand, how real estate agents should act to create a stronger confidence towards their clients and change this negative image that has been created. In order to make this study more anchored to reality I have interviewed common peolple, some of them with experience from own real estate deals, some of them without any experinece at all. This situation of low confidence for the real estate brokers has come to the attention of many Swedish authorities who have set up guidelines and recommendations in order to change this negative trend on the market.Faktorerna som ligger bakom det alltmer låga förtroendet för mäklarkåren trots längre utbildningar och högre intagningskrav är både interna och externa. Med interna faktorer menar jag fastighetsmäklarnas attityd gentemot kunderna samt underskattning av kundernas förväntningar och för mycket fokusering på hög provision. Med externa faktorer som också påverkat denna bransch menar jag konjunkturcyklar samt politiska och finansiella beslut. I denna studie kommer vi att undersöka, med hjälp av intervjuer med människor som både har och inte har erfarenhet av denna bransch, hur en fastighetsmäklare skall agera för att skapa ett starkare förtroende för sina kunder och ändra denna negativa bild som skapats. Situationen om det låga förtroendet har uppmärksammats av myndigheter och bland dessa Fastighetsmäklarnämnden som har satt upp riktlinjer och rekommendationer för att ändra denna negativa trend på marknaden.

Coomes, Steven P. "Exploring Predictors of Self-Forgiveness." Thesis, University of North Texas, 2019. https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc1609166/.
Abstract:
Self-forgiveness is a growing sub-field of the broader study of forgiveness, and initial research has linked self-forgiveness to positive mental and physical health outcomes. However, the extant literature on self-forgiveness is in its infancy, and there is a need for further research to understand the predictors of self-forgiveness and the clinical implications that might follow. The current study aimed to build on the extant literature by exploring two sets of predictors of self-forgiveness: (1) the four Rs as proposed in Cornish and Wade's four-R therapeutic model of self-forgiveness (i.e., responsibility, remorse, restoration, and renewal) and (2) personality as measured by the Big Five. This study also explored how responsibility for the offense and humility might moderate the relationship between self-forgiveness and well-being. Participants were undergraduates recruited from a large, public university in the southwestern United States. They were instructed to describe a recent interpersonal offense they had committed and complete a questionnaire. The overall results suggest that there is a negative cross-sectional relationship between responsibility, remorse, and restoration with self-forgiveness and that, when taken together, the four-Rs account for a significant amount of variance in self-forgiveness. Neuroticism was negatively associated with self-forgiveness while conscientiousness and extraversion were positively associated with self-forgiveness. The Big Five collectively accounted for a significant amount of variance in self-forgiveness. Finally, neither responsibility or humility were found to moderate the relationship between self-forgiveness and well-being. Limitations, suggestions for future research, and clinical implications are discussed.

Slocum, Debra. "An exploration of perceptions of an offender's true sorriness in an interpersonal context: An offended intimate partner's perspective." Thesis, Edith Cowan University, Research Online, Perth, Western Australia, 2006. https://ro.ecu.edu.au/theses/338.
Abstract:
A study by Allan, Allan, Kaminer, and Stein (2006) revealed that forgiveness was enhanced by apology and significantly enhanced by true sorriness. Allan et al. (2006) further observed that little is known about what true sorriness is, or about what factors influence perceptions of true sorriness. In response to these findings and observations, this study explored true sorriness in an interpersonal context. Twenty-three participants, aged between 26 years and 58 years old, who had experienced a serious offence by their partner during the past two-years whilst in a committed relationship with that partner, were recruited through community networking. Participants attended a semi-structured interview and completed the Enright Forgiveness Inventory (EFI; Enright, Rique, & Coyle, 2000). A qualitative approach combined the principles of hermeneutic phenomenology and grounded theory to identify the factors that influence perceptions of true sorriness, the experiential meaning of true sorriness from an offended individual's perspective, and the consequences pertaining to perceptions of the absence or presence of true sorriness. The findings of this study suggest that true sorriness can be understood as a validation of care, code and conduct that is perceived by the offended through the core components of affect, affirmations and actions. The / redemptive and conciliative nature of these core components promotes reparation, restoration, and reconciliation. The interactive influence of the core components of true sorriness operate as a sanative process. The findings of this study offer further support for the notion that apology contributes toward forgiveness and true sorriness significantly contributes towards forgiveness (Allan et al., 2006). The theoretical and clinical contribution of these findings is discussed in relation to apology and forgiveness theory.

Abstract:
Magister Theologiae - MThThis study investigates three case studies, namely, the “Pepco Three”, the “St James Church incident”, and the “Gugulethu Seven incident” from the perspective of ongoing reflections on the nature of reconciliation in the sub-discipline of Systematic Theology. The research problem that is investigated in this project is: What role did visible signs of remorse (or its absence) play in the willingness or unwillingness of victims (or their close relatives) to offer forgiveness to the perpetrators of gross violations of human rights related to the three cases studies mentioned from the amnesty hearings of the South African Truth and Reconciliation commission, namely the “Pepco Three” the “St James Church massacre incident”, the “Gugulethu Seven”. In each case study, the crucial question that will be asked is whether the victims or their relatives understand forgiveness as something that is conditional and part of a longer process of reconciliation, or whether they understand forgiveness as something that can be offered unconditionally. The research draws on some standard theological literature with specific reference to literature on the concepts of reconciliation, forgiveness and remorse emerging in the aftermath of the South African TRC. This is followed by a description and critical analysis of the three identified case studies. In each case, I listened to the recordings, read the transcriptions, and considered the available secondary material on the case studies.

Abstract:
The Australian justice system is based in a conventional model of justice with the aim of uniformity in sentencing. It is important to ascertain public opinion on the relevance of different factors to be taken into account at sentencing as accurately as possible, in order to provide informed public opinion which may assist policy makers in making legislation or educating the public on these matters. The current study examined the impact of varying levels of victim harm (high or low) and offender remorse (high or low) for both person and property crimes on sentencing decisions made by both male (n = 99) and female (n = 94) members of the Western Australian public. The design was a 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 between subjects factorial, with dependent variables of length of sentence assigned (0-10 years jail), rated influence of four sentencing goals (retribution, rehabilitation, incapacitation and deterrence) on sentence choice, and responses to an open-ended question about the reasons for the sentence chosen. The main findings were that demonstrations of offender remorse and the level of harm caused to the victim appeared to be factors in public participants' sentencing. There was no difference in sentences assigned by male and female participants. Although the majority of participants believed they sentenced for rehabilitative reasons. Retribution appeared to be the major factor in the sentences assigned an outcome which reflects the focus of the Western Australian sentencing legislation. Implications arising from the results include the need for more public education in the areas of the functions or the courts, legal principles and theories, and options for victims of crime. Overall, the current study added to the body of research examining public opinions about the potential relevance of various victim and offender factors at the sentencing phase in the search for uniformity in sentencing.

Slonje, Robert. "The nature of cyberbullying in Swedish schools : processes, feelings of remorse by bullies, impact on victims and age and gender differences." Thesis, Goldsmiths College (University of London), 2011. http://research.gold.ac.uk/6568/.
Abstract:
Four studies were conducted to examine the nature of cyberbullying in Swedish schools using both qualitative and quantitative methods. The first two studies investigated what reasons/issues may be involved in the negative feelings that a victim of bullying may feel and how these related to different types of bullying. The content analysis yielded seven themes: helplessness, persistency, fright, anonymity, no avoidance, embarrassment and loneliness. Study Three used quantitative methods to examine various issues such as gender and age differences, but especially the distribution of the bullying material, the role of bystanders, and whether cyberbullies feel more or less remorse compared to traditional bullies. Findings showed that cyberbullies not only targeted their victims, but quite often showed the material to other people and/or uploaded it onto the Internet. The bystanders of cyberbullying mostly did nothing further to distribute the material, however when they did, they tended to help the victim more often than bully him/her further. When asked about feelings of remorse, cyberbullies expressed less remorse than traditional bullies. The findings are discussed in relation to the definition of bullying, and the need for empathy raising awareness for bullies within the cyberbullying context. Study Four, a qualitative study, involved 10 pupils and examined issues such as what the pupils had experienced (as victims, bullies or bystanders), how it felt (impact), and how it was resolved. Practical implications of the findings include the highlighted need for different coping strategies to be applied for victims of cyberbullying and traditional bullying, as well as starting preventive strategies for cyberbullying in pupils as young as 7 years. In addition, the need to investigate cyberbullying in a different manner than that of traditional bullying is raised. This could have practical implications for researchers, but is also a theoretical concern related to the definition of cyberbullying.

Leblanc, André. "L'expression de la mauvaise conscience dans l'oeuvre de Benjamin Constant." Paris 3, 2008. http://www.theses.fr/2008PA030009.
Abstract:
L’étude d’un thème transversal comme celui de la mauvaise conscience dans l’œuvre de Constant nécessite une méthodologie particulière. Le manque d’homogénéité des écrits de cet auteur disqualifie les approches biographique et générique et exige une perspective holistique. S’interroger sur les conséquences morales de la mauvaise conscience permet à la fois de tenir compte de la diversité des écrits et d’aborder l’épineux problème de la sincérité immanquablement lié à toute étude de la mauvaise conscience en littérature. Ce travail s’est attaché à démontrer comment les catégories morales qui constituent cette affection psychologique se réalisent dans l’œuvre de Constant. Cette tâche a été menée en comparant les quatre grands types d’écrits constituant l’œuvre de ce dernier (les écrits portant sur la religion, ceux sur la politique, les écrits littéraires et les écrits intimes) tout d’abord sous l’angle du remords dont a été démontré qu’il sert d’enjeu dans les relations entre les hommes dans les écrits théoriques en plus d’être la manifestation la plus patente de la mauvaise conscience dans les écrits littéraires et intimes. Dans un deuxième temps, les fondements philosophiques de la douleur ont été dégagés avant de montrer qu’elle est simultanément cause et effet de la mauvaise conscience dans les écrits littéraires et intimes. Troisièmement, ont été distinguées les caractéristiques de la dissimulation puisqu’elle est à la base de la condamnation par Constant des agissements culpabilisants des instances qui ont dominé l’humanité et la source des comportements coupables des personnages et de l’auteur lui-mêmeThe study of a transversal theme such as bad conscience in the work of Constant requires a particular methodology. The lack of homogeneity in the writings of this author disqualifies both biographical and generic approaches, and a holistic perspective is required. An investigation into the moral consequences of bad conscience offers the possibility of both taking the diversity of the writings into account and of entering upon the enticing question of sincerity, which is infallibly linked to every study of bad conscience in literature. This study demonstrates how the moral categories composing the psychological affect represented by bad conscience are materialized in the work of Constant. In this study the four main types of his work, writings on religion, politics, literary writings and personal writings, have been compared. First from the angle of remorse, which has been demonstrated to serve as the object of controversy in the relations between people in Constant’s theoretical writings. Remorse is also the most obvious manifestation of bad conscience in his literary and personal writing. Secondly, the philosophical ground for suffering is emphasized and thereafter it is shown that suffering is altogether the cause and effect of bad conscience in his literary and personal writing. Thirdly the characteristics of dissimulation are distinguished so that dissimulation forms the base of Constant’s condemnation of the instances that tried to dominate mankind by making it guilty as well as the origin of guilty behaviour both in his characters and in the author himself

Shibuya, Naoki. "Tradition et modernité : étude des tragédies de Voltaire." Phd thesis, Université de la Sorbonne nouvelle - Paris III, 2014. http://tel.archives-ouvertes.fr/tel-00968766.
Abstract:
Voltaire a-t-il été rénovateur ou défenseur du classicisme ? Bien qu'il l'appréciât, il s'opposait à l'introduction de la galanterie qui était la tradition classique. Car, pour lui, la puissance de la tragédie, c'était d'inspirer la crainte et la pitié afin d'instruire les hommes. À ses yeux, la galanterie ne pouvait qu'affaiblir le rôle éducatif de la tragédie. Ainsi, il a tenté d'instruire dans le théâtre français des scènes qui inspirent la terreur, tout en respectant la bienséance du classicisme. Pour ce qui est de la pitié, il a mis en avant l'importance des liens familiaux ; les liens du sang font entendre la voix de la nature. Cela nous amène à la question de la nature humaine. En réalité, Voltaire avait confiance en la nature de l'homme, tout en soutenant l'empirisme. De là, une contradiction apparaît. Si l'homme est façonné par son environnement, il y a des cas où il se dénature et commet un crime. Voltaire pensait plutôt que l'homme était originellement l'être faible qui commit la faute. Alors, le crime s'unit à la nature humaine. Cependant, il croyait malgré tout à la bonté de l'homme car ce dernier possède la capacité de se régénérer. C'est là qu'intervient la force du remords. Pour Voltaire, ce sentiment est une des composantes de la vertu gravée dans la nature humaine. Même si un mortel commet un crime, il peut se régénérer grâce au remords. L'être humain, selon lui, résulte de sa nature bonne et l'empirisme. Voltaire a tenté jusqu'à sa mort d'être à la fois dramaturge et philosophe afin de mettre en lumière le rapport de la vertu et de la régénération. Pensant toujours à éduquer l'homme, tantôt il défend la tradition classique, tantôt il introduit de la modernité dans le classicisme. Toutefois, pour lui, moderniser la tradition classique était un moyen de la conserver, non pas de la détruire. En effet, il pensait que la tragédie classique était la plus efficace manière d'éduquer les hommes. La tragédie voltairienne, c'est donc l'intégration de la modernité à la tradition du classicisme.

Girardey, Pierre. "Figurations du remords dans le récit romantique : Hugo, Balzac, Dumas." Thesis, Bourgogne Franche-Comté, 2020. http://www.theses.fr/2020UBFCC022.
Abstract:
Le remords se définit comme un sentiment de contrariété éprouvé par celui qui sait avoir mal agi, une douleur consécutive à une action jugée mauvaise. S'il s'agit d'un sentiment négatif et réactif caractérisé par son aspect punitif, le remords est avant tout un sentiment moral parce que celui qui l'éprouve comprend le mal dont il a été l'agent par les effets malheureux qu'il ressent. Figé dans la logique itérative de la mauvaise conscience, le coupable doit trouver le moyen de convertir ce remords qui le rend esclave de son crime en un repentir libérateur qui ouvre la voie à la réparation. C'est cette dialectique que le christianisme a mis au centre de sa sotériologie, faisant du remords la marque de la rupture du lien avec Dieu de sorte que, selon Jean Delumeau, « jamais une civilisation n'avait accordé autant de poids et de prix à la culpabilité […] que ne l'a fait l'Occident du XIIIe au XVIIIe siècle ». Si les Lumières tendent à libérer l'individu de ses inquiétudes métaphysiques en affaiblissant le sens du péché et en revendiquant l'innocence première de l'homme, elles ne mettent pourtant pas fin à ce mouvement de culpabilisation qui perdure au XIXe siècle. Cette thèse se propose donc d'analyser quelques figurations du remords dans le récit romantique, notamment chez Balzac, Hugo et Dumas, d'en montrer les spécificités et d'expliquer les enjeux que revêt cet affect largement laïcisé dans la nouvelle société issue de la Révolution françaiseOne can define remorse as a feeling of annoyance felt by someone who knows he has acted badly, a pain due to an action which is considered bad. Even though it is a negative and reactive feeling, characterized by its punitive nature, remorse is above all a moral feeling, because the person who experiences it understands the evil he has committed by the painful effects he feels. Frozen in the repetitive logic of bad conscience, the guilty individual has to find the way to convert the remorse which makes him a slave of his crime, into a liberating repentance. This repentance is the only way which leads to atonement. Christianity has put this dialectic at the centre of its soteriology, understanding remorse as a sign of rupture with God. According to Jean Delumeau, « no civilization has given more significance to guilt […] than Western civilization between the 13th and the 18th century.» Although the Enlightenment tends to free the individual from his metaphysical worries by weakening the sense of sin and claiming the original innocence of mankind, it fails at putting an end to the apportionment of blame which remains during the 19th century. This PhD thesis analyzes several representations of remorse in Romantic fiction, especially in Balzac, Dumas and Hugo’s literary works, in order to show its specificities and explain the issues of an affect which is profoundly laicized after the French Revolution

Значення детального вивчення дійового каяття полягає в поширенні даного інституту на всіх осіб, які вчинили злочини, оскільки їх доля залежить від правильного розуміння особами, що застосовують норми права інституту дійового каяття. У розділі 1 роботи досліджуються теоретико-правові основи дійового каяття як підстави звільнення особи від кримінальної відповідальності, зокрема розглядаються питання поняття та значення дійового каяття як підстави звільнення особи від кримінальної відповідальності, а також виникнення та розвитку інституту дійового каяття у кримінальному законодавстві. Розділ 2 присвячений загальній характеристиці звільнення особи від кримінальної відповідальності у зв’язку з дійовим каяттям, зокрема умовам та елементам такого звільнення, а також правовому регулюванню звільнення особи від кримінальної відповідальності у зв’язку з дійовим каяттям за законодавством України та європейських країн. У розділі 3 досліджуються правові проблеми закриття кримінального провадження на підставі дійового каяття, зокрема, встановлення підстав та особливості закриття на цій підставі. Наукова новизна роботи полягає в тому, що:1) у результаті проведеного дослідження визначено, що дійове каяття - це соціально- позитивна поведінка особи після вчинення злочину, яка свідчить про засудження нею вчиненого злочину і загладжування заподіяної шкоди та тягне за собою юридичні наслідки у вигляді звільнення особи від кримінальної відповідальності (с. 27); 2) встановлено, що сутність дійового каяття, полягає у тому, що суб’єкт злочину, не лише внутрішньо переживає і словесно розкаюється у вчиненому, а й підтверджує це своїми соціально корисними й активними діями (с. 42); 3) зазначено, що в основі удосконалення порядку закриття кримінального провадження зі звільненням обвинуваченого від кримінальної відповідальності на основі дійового каяття повинно лежати передусім правильне і однозначне розуміння кримінально- правових приписів, одноманітне і чітке застосування їх на практиці (с. 57).
Exemption from criminal liability in connection with effective remorse is one of the most effective mechanisms for resolving state-sanctioned criminal conflicts. The importance of a detailed study of effective remorse is to extend the institution to all perpetrators of crime, since their fate depends on the correct understanding of persons applying the rules of law of the institution of effective remorse. Section 1 explores the theoretical and legal foundations of effective remorse as grounds for the release of a person from criminal responsibility, in particular the issues of the concept and meaning of effective remorse as grounds for the release of a person from criminal responsibility, as well as the emergence and development of the institution of effective repentance in criminal law. Section 2 deals with the general characteristics of criminal liberation in connection with effective remorse, in particular the conditions and elements of such release, as well as the legal regulation of criminal liberation in accordance with the laws of Ukraine and European countries. Section 3 explores the legal problems of closing criminal proceedings on the basis of effective remorse, in particular, the establishment of grounds and the particular nature of closure on that basis. Scientific novelty of the work is that: 1) as a result of the conducted research it is determined that effective repentance is a socially-positive behavior of a person after committing a crime, which testifies to the conviction of the crime and to smoothen the caused harm and entails legal consequences in the form of release of a person from criminal responsibility (p. 27); 2) it is established that the essence of effective repentance is that the subject of the crime, not only internally experiences and verbally repents of the committed act, but also confirms it with his socially useful and active actions (p. 42); 3) it is stated that in order to improve the procedure for closing criminal proceedings with the release of a defendant from criminal responsibility on the basis of effective repentance, the correct and unambiguous understanding of the criminal legal orders, a uniform and clear application of them in practice (p. 57), must first and foremost.

Abstract:
Detta projekt har haft som fokus att skapa ett system där användare med hjälp av SSH ska kunna logga in på en server och utföra konfigurationer på switchar och routrar med olika krav såsom att enbart en användare får vara inloggad i systemet åt gången. För att uppnå målen och kraven så användes ett par olika skript med språk såsom shell, bash, perl och expect. Resultatet visar en färdig produkt och att detta projekt var genomförbart. Lösningsförslaget finns presenterat i form av ett flödesschema och sedan vanlig text. Slutligen presenteras och diskuteras även andra alternativa lösningar.The projects main focus have been to create a system mainly for the users that study network technology on a more advanced level. In order for the students to start to configure the switches and routers they need to access a server with the SSH protocol which was one of the requirements. Another requirement was that only one user should be able to configure at same time (so two users should NOT be able to configure the switches and routers at the same time). The scripting languages that was used was bash, shell, perl and expect in order to achieve these goals and requirement. The result shows a finished product and that this project was feasable. The solution is presented as a flowchart as an overview and some regular text that explains the scripts in more depth. There are of course a ton of other ways to solve this problem and a few of them are presented and discussed in the later chapters.

Abstract:
I am a Christian. In my opinion, this is the most important way I can describe myself as a person. As a son, brother, friend, employee, and student my Faith undeniably affects every facet of my life. In an effort to make my last year as a student resonate on a personal level, I have combined my spiritual journey with my academic one. My intent was to characterize my Christian faith in order to introduce an architecture that embodies the duality of a personal connection to God and a community experience based on fellowship. My ten-week investigation of my beliefs, the Christian church, and architectural precedents has pointed me towards designing a remote worship destination in an effort to explore the intersection that occurs between the spiritual and earthly realms and between the individual and society. My hope is that this design will embody my concept of the Christian faith as a process, or journey, and the nature of that process causing a spiritual separation from society. My intention is to symbolically represent a journey, a point of rest and introspection, and to capture the nature of worship with an architecture and how that architecture responds to a site. My process thus far has been incredibly introspective and educational on so much more than an academic plane. My early research was fueled by cynicism and frustration with how I have seen the Christian faith and church represented in America today. However, diving deeper into the spirituality of Christian worship I have gained a beautiful perspective on our relationship with God and each other. I can only hope that my solution will reflect the spiritual growth I have experienced. If you want to make God laugh, tell Him your plans. Folk Proverb

Previous issue date: 2013-02-20The purpose of this dissertation is to examine the construction process of the poetic effect in the narrative of the novel o remorso de baltazar serapião, written by Valter Hugo Mãe, taking the linguistic and extralinguistic resources used by the author as a reference. For the text analysis, the reading of two excerpts is selected and Olivier Reboul s concept that considers the central motif a procedure that serves as the textual organization principle and the speech s live unit constituent is applied. In this way, it may be shown that ambiguous irony is #1 excerpt s central motif (Introductionencounter, conflict s unfolding) while ironic hyperbole is #2 excerpt s central motif (Passionate agressions). The study has shown that through the selection of the figures as the central motif, the novelist created unusual ways of saying, bringing strength and originality to the speech. As a result of the study it is also shown the components of classical tragedy and the interweaving of the novel s main figure the irony with the tragic and the black humor.
Esta pesquisa tem por objetivo central analisar o processo de construção do poético na narrativa do romance o remorso de baltazar serapião, de Valter Hugo Mãe, tomando como referência principalmente os recursos linguísticos e extralinguísticos por ele empregados na obra. Para a análise do texto, será privilegiada a leitura de dois excertos do romance a partir do modelo defendido por Olivier Reboul, que elege o motivo central como um procedimento que serve de princípio organizador para o texto e se constitui na unidade viva do discurso. Assim, procuraremos comprovar que o motivo central do excerto 1 (Encontro-Apresentação, desencadeamento do conflito) será a ironia ambígua, enquanto do excerto 2 (Agressões Apaixonadas) será a hipérbole irônica. O objetivo é mostrar que o romancista criou modos de dizer que se afastam do uso comum, promovendo força e originalidade ao discurso, ao eleger as figuras como motivo central. Por fim, como resultado da pesquisa, mostraremos também os elementos da tragédia clássica e o entrelaçamento da principal figura do romance a ironia, com o trágico e o humor negro.

Abstract:
During times of crisis, such as when the world is going through a pandemic. Many companies get affected and need to change their way of working. Our purpose is to study how the abrupt transition to remote work effects different aspects of work and to see whether, and in what ways, the involuntary nature of the current remote work situation changes how remote work is perceived by employees and managers. We choose to do a qualitative study, in order to get a deeper understanding from both employees’ perspective and managers perspective. The managers and employees participating in our interview are from banking, insurance, and staffing agencies. These interviews will be supplemented with secondary sources from news and statistical surveys. By comparing the results from our study with earlier research and recommendations from industry experts, we concluded that organizational members are handling the transition to remote work well despite the ongoing situation. Similar pros and cons of remote work that are present in previous research are also present in our interviews. However, there are some distinct differences as well. Our thesis is intended to help other organizations learn and gain knowledge about how different organizations are managing remote work in a crisis and the challenges that it brings.

Abstract:
The purpose of this thesis is to develop a remote control application for personal computers. This application will have two devices implied, the computer to be controlled and a small portable device that will be used as remote controller.
In this specific case, the portable device picked is the Nintendo DS, for reasons discussed later in this document that make this device interesting as a remote controller.
The application should allow the final user to create his own set of remote controllers for any computer application he wants to control, and also, to define the commands the application should perform. This makes the developed solution a full customizable universal remote controlling application.
The first step taken was to do a small research about what kind of devices and software are present actually for remote control applications, so the differences, advantages and disadvantages of using the Nintendo DS will be shown. Then the developed solution will be explained and tested, controlling some computer applications under different scenarios.

Abstract:
International Telemetering Conference Proceedings / November 04-07, 1991 / Riviera Hotel and Convention Center, Las Vegas, NevadaA Remote Telemetry Station (RTS) was developed to support Boeing’s requirement to relocate its flight test telemetry range away from Seattle, Wa. As requirements to relocate the test range were investigated high level requirements were documented and various approaches were evaluated. The end result of the analysis and requirements definition was the procurement of the Remote Telemetry Station (RTS). The RTS is capable of supporting many sites, tracking and receiving up to 1024 Kbits/sec of telemetry data, providing fully redundant two-way radio communication in the UHF and VHF bands, linking all the data back to Seattle and appearing transparent to the users. The RTS was designed and developed by a Boeing/Veda Incorporated team. The end result of this joint design and development effort is a system that meets all Boeing requirements in a highly integrated, extremely efficient, and very flexible package providing for growth through the year 2000.

Abstract:
Today, many small aerodromes have a hard time surviving economically, and amongst the largest cost is air traffic control. Airlines are cutting costs where they can, and many times this affects the aerodromes as well, e.g. when airlines decide to park remotely instead of at the gate. The project called Remotely Operated Towers, initiated by SESAR and run by Saab and LFV, is aiming to address this problem. The project revolves around remotely providing ATS to aerodromes where it is deemed suitable. A big challenge in this project is how to assign aerodromes to remote tower modules in the remote control centre. There are many ways to do this, but there is only a few ways to do it to achieve the least amount of modules. This thesis aims to find an optimal solution to the challenge mentioned above. The thesis resulted in a model where the user can provide the input of choice, i.e. aerodromes with associated ATS operating hours and movements, for a specific period – and receive the assignment schedule for the modules, saying exactly which aerodrome are to be controlled by which module at what time.

Abstract:
Context. Introduction of efficient multimedia technologies combined with the spreading of high-speed internet connection all over the world has led to the continuous increase in demand of multimedia services, particularly video and audio. One of the major demands are flexible, interoperable and cost-effective lightweight remote collaboration systems in companies. Web Real Time Communication (WebRTC) is an emerging peer to peer technology that is promising to be the solution to many digital real-time communication challenges. With its fantastic one-to-one communication capabilities, WebRTC supports fast and smooth audio calls, video calls, conferencing, data (media file, document and screen) sharing, gaming and all sorts of messages exchange, all being done straight out of the browser. However, as shown by investigations and interviews supported by Ericsson AB and Semcon AB as party of the MERCO (Mediated Effective Remote Collaboration) international project, many corporate use cases of remote collaboration involve applications beyond the conventional one to one communication. Present videoconferencing systems (telepresence) limits the collaboration flexibility due to their lack of the ability to adapt to system resource usage, hence tend to be too heavy for less powerful devices (laptops, tablets, phones). Moreover, their installation and maintenance costs are too expensive for small companies. Therefore, new flexible, lightweight and less expensive solutions for remote collaboration need to be developed. Objectives. The main objective of this thesis is to identify technical solutions to address the challenges of resource usage flexibility in WebRTC multi-party remote collaboration systems. Despite concurrent developments of both commercial and free solutions that provide multi-party videoconferencing services using WebRTC, present solutions such as the conventional Multipoint Control Unit (MCU), Selective Forwarding Unit (SFU) and Fully Meshed architectures suffers from issues of excessive resource usage and cannot deliver the acceptable quality of experience in different use cases, particularly the mobile environment. The aim of this thesis is to investigate lightweight technical solutions that can be used to improve the system resource usage in WebRTC multiparty conferencing systems. Through understanding the architectural designs, benchmarking the performance of various technologies used in WebRTC and selecting the most suitable techniques a prototype is developed as a proof of concept. Methods. The first part of the thesis is dedicated to comprehensive study of fundamentals, background information and related works on WebRTC. This gives knowledge of technologies, techniques and performance evaluation metrics which help in making appropriate technical decisions during the experimental development of WebRTC solutions. The second part of the thesis is dedicated to experimental investigation in which two WebRTC signaling technologies (XSockets and NodeJs) are evaluated based on call setup time in WebRTC group call. Two lightweight technical solutions for improving resource usage flexibility (Switching video quality based on speech and using emotions and gestures instead of video) are evaluated based on system resources (CPU, memory, disk and network) and user experience. Results. Based on call setup time of WebRTC multi-party calls, the experimental results indicates that XSockets is a better signaling technology than NodeJs. The two proposed lightweight solutions have shown a remarkable improvement based on systems resource usage. A 15% reduction of CPU usage is observed when using speech controlled video quality switching and further 10% reduction is observed when video is replaced by emotions and gestures. Conclusions. Despite the minimal resource usage achieved by using emotions technique, this solution has usability issues as it cannot detect emotions in poor lighting environment. Consequently, the solution of switching video quality based on speech is chosen for further implementation. Though, this technique can be further improved through using machine learning techniques, the current implementation can significantly reduce the amount CPU, memory, disk and network usage to allow up to 6 participants to join a single conference call while maintain acceptable quality of experience.

Abstract:
Die Plasmamembran lebender Zellen stellt die Hauptbarriere für alle Arten von
extrazellulären Signalen dar. Viele davon werden ins Innere der Zelle weitergeleitet, hier
lösen sie im Kern transkiptionelle Veränderungen und damit die Anpassung der Zelle auf
Proteinebene aus. Andere wiederum werden direkt erkannt und in unmittelbare molekulare
Antworten umgewandelt, wie zum Beispiel die Sekretion von gespeicherten Stoffen oder
Konformations-änderungen von Proteinen. Besonders in Pflanzen, welche durch ihre
sesshafte Lebensweise auf die rechtzeitige und spezifische Erkennung von
Umweltveränderungen angewiesen sind, hat sich ein höchst diverses Rezeptorsystem
entwickelt. In der Ackerschmalwand Arabidopsis thaliana, der in dieser Arbeit
verwendeten Modellpflanze, wurden 610 verschiedene Rezeptorproteine identifiziert,
welche wiederum von zahlreichen interagierenden, und bis jetzt weitestgehend
unerforschten Proteinen reguliert werden. Als entscheidendes Prinzip, dieses Aufgebot an
membran-gebundenen Komponenten von Signalkaskaden zu organisieren, gilt inzwischen
die zeitliche und lokale Kompartimentierung der Plasmamembran. Durch Akkumulation
relevanter Bestandteile von biologischen Prozessen in sogenannten Membrandomänen
werden kurze Reaktionszeiten und die unmittelbare Signalweiterleitung garantiert.
Besonders wichtig bei solchen Prozessen sind sogenannte Gerüstproteine, welche als
Adaptoren zwischen anderen Komponenten fungieren.
In dieser Arbeit wurden Remorine, eine Familie pflanzenspezifische Proteinen ohne bisher
definierte Funktion, aufgrund ihrer Eigenschaft Membrandomänen zu markieren und ihrer
mutmaßlichen Beteiligung an Pflanzen-Pathogen-Interaktionen, genauer untersucht.
Eine systematische Expression von Remorinen als Fluorophor-Fusionen mit anschließender
hochauflösender mikroskopischer und quantitativer Untersuchung offenbarte, dass die
meisten Remorine sich in deutlich unterschiedlichen Mustern an der Membran verteilen.
Untersucht wurden dabei Parameter wie die Größe der erkennbaren Domänen, die Form,
die Helligkeit, aus welcher auf die Proteinkonzentration rückgeschlossen werden kann,
sowie die Domänendichte an der Membran. Diese Ergebnisse wurden von
Kolokalisationsanalysen unterstützt, welche die Lokalisation in unterschiedlichen,
koexistierenden Membrankompartimenten erkennen ließen. Ferner wurden die
Eigenschaften der von Remorinen markierten Membrandomänen, wie zum Beispiel der
Austausch an Proteinen mit der umgebenden Membran, sowie lokale und zeitliche
Dynamik und Stabilität untersucht. Dabei konnte eine hohe Fluktuation einzelner Proteine
zwischen Domäne und umliegender Membran, jedoch eine klare laterale Immobilität der gesamten Domäne nachgewiesen werden. Zusätzlich zeichneten sich die untersuchten Domänen teilweise durch eine außerordentlich große zeitliche Stabilität aus, andere
wiederum scheinen abhängig von bestimmten Stimuli zu entstehen.
Weitergehende Arbeiten dienten der Identifizierung der Funktion einzelner Bereiche der
Proteine. Hierbei konnte die entscheidende Rolle des äußersten C-terminalen Bereichs, des
so- genannten RemCAs (Perraki et al., 2012; Konrad et al., 2014) als Membrananker
bestätigt werden. Zusätzlich wurden mit Hilfe eines Hefe-2-Hybrid Ansatzes zahlreiche
neue Interaktoren für eine Auswahl von Remorinen identifiziert. Dabei wurde ein
essentieller Rezeptor der basalen Immunantwort, BAK1 als Interaktor für Remorin 6.4
gefunden.
Zuletzt wurden einige wenige Remorine mit Hilfe von Mutantenlinien in einer genetischen
Studie phänotypischen Analysen bezüglich ihrer Funktion bei Pflanzen-Pathogen
Interaktionen unterzogen. Remorin 6.4 spielt hiernach eine Rolle bei der Immunantwort
nach Befall mit virulenten Bakterien.
Die grundlegende Erkenntnis, dass in lebenden Zellen zahlreiche klar unterscheidbare
Arten an Membrandomänen koexistieren, ist ein Meilenstein auf dem Weg zur
Anerkennung einer neuen Vorstellung vom Aufbau der Zytoplasmamembran. Diese wird häufig noch als undifferenzierte zweidimensionale Flüssigkeit beschrieben, in welcher
stellenweise sogenannte Lipidflöße, festere Strukturen aus Cholesterin und Sphingolipiden,
die auch bestimmte Proteine beherbergen können, auftreten. Anhand der in dieser Arbeit
gewonnen Ergebnisse, sowie ähnlicher Studien in Hefe lässt sich nun folgendes Bild
zeichnen: Es ist davon auszugehen, dass unterschiedliche Proteine, welche im selben
biologischen Prozess involviert sind, in unmittelbarer Nachbarschaft oder sogar im selben
Proteinkomplex in der Membran organisiert sind. Die Lipidzusammensetzung in der
unmittelbaren Umgebung wird von diesen Proteinen bestimmt, bietet jedoch auch die
Grundlage für die Bildung der Domäne, indem sie die Lokalisation der Komponenten in
diesem Bereich fördert. Die zahlreichen an der Zellmembran gleichzeitig ablaufenden,
unterschiedlichen Prozesse erfordern eine hochkomplexe, zeitlich und räumlich stark
regulierte Kompartimentierung der Membran. Es kann vermutet werden, dass Remorine
eine Rolle als Gerüstproteine bei der Ausbildung einer Auswahl dieser Domänen bilden. Im
Fall von Remorin 6.4 ist das Protein für den Prozess der Flagellin-Erkennung und die
unmittelbaren Abwehrantworten, welche nachweislich eine Präformierung der beteiligten
Proteinkomplexe voraussetzen, notwendig.

Abstract:
Wireless Sensor Network (WSN), a collection of “sensor nodes” promises to change the scientist’s approach of gathering the environmental data in various fields. Sensor nodes can be used for non-stop sensing, event detection, location sensing and local control of actuators, this concept gives surety to many latest application areas like agriculture, military, home or factory automation, logistics and so on. Remote surveillance and measurement missions can be performed by using WSNs. The hot research topic now-a-days is to make such networks remotely controllable and adaptive to the environment and mission.
The work carried out in this thesis is the development of a surveillance application using TinyOS/nesC. The purpose of this application is to perform event-detection mission by using any one of the built-in sensor on Mica2 motes as well as a setup protocol is designed to make the WSN remotely controllable and adaptive to the mission. In this thesis, an experimental work is also performed using TinyDB to build up a surveillance system whose purpose is to detect and count the total number of person present at any time in a given room and to view the results at a remote place. Besides these two system applications, a comparative study between TinyDB and nesC is described which concludes that more hardware control can be achieved through nesC which is a more power efficient platform for long-term applications.

Abstract:
Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) have a tremendous appeal. One can imagine a large number of applications such as search-and-rescue, traffic monitoring, aerial mapping, etc. Helicopters are particularly attractive due to their Vertical Take Off and Landing (VTOL) capabilities. The research on UAVs has shown rapid development in recent years, and offers a great number of challenges. This thesis is the result of a project which is a part of the Autonomous Remote Controlled Helicopter (ARCH) project at the Department of Computer and Information Science, Norwegian University of Science and Technology. The ARCH project has already gained public interest, when it was featured on a television program (Schrödingers katt, NRK. September 2004). The object of this thesis is divided into three main sections. Firstly, it is to create and describe a remote control system for controlling the UAV in semi-autonomous mode, that will also enable the UAV to autonomously follow objects (pursuit-mode). Secondly, it is to create and describe a virtual cockpit which is to be used with the remote control system. Finally, it is to create and describe an image stabilization system, which can stabilize the visual information sent from the UAV to the ground and the virtual cockpit. These three components have been combined and integrated into the client prototype called ARCH Groundstation. Together, these three components provides a platform for an operator to control the ARCH UAV in semi-autonomous mode.

Abstract:
Image analysis plays a crucial role in many computer vision applications in which images of the same scene with different geometrical orientations need to be compared for further processing. This thesis describes the design and implementation of a model-based vision system for the recognition of aerial images. The main objective is to register two remote sensing images taken at different times. First, some distinctive features are extracted and matched then, these matched features are used as marking points in defining a geometric mapping function. Once registered, the reference image can be used as an aid to automatic interpretation and as a framework for detecting changes between successive images. A two stage matching procedure is used for this task. In the first part, corners are extracted and matched in both images and an initial estimation of the mapping function is computed. This initial function is then used in the second part to estimate the parameters of a global mapping function for the entire image. The process ends when all the extracted features in one image are either mapped to features in the other image, or rejected if no match could be found.

Abstract:
The aim of this research was to develop and validate a conceptual design management model for international, collaborative remote site projects. In the last decade or so there has been an increasing number of remotely located and often environmentally sensitive sites becoming the focus for development work involving potential investors/entrepreneurs/stakeholders or government and non-government agencies. There were no previously documented empirical examples, nor theoretical models, for remote site design management. Projects on remote sites are frequently government funded, making the approval processes, and timelines for example, subject to political influence, which means that the projects are potentially more difficult to manage, at all levels of involvement. The conceptual model was developed in association with the development of a typology for remote sites, and an investigation of three previously completed eco-resort and Antarctic science projects located on environmentally sensitive world heritage sites. The model responded to and reflected the perceived need for a well-integrated management approach to remote site projects. The research aimed to also demonstrate the potential portability of the model, in terms of offering a basis for a relevant management framework for built environment projects, international scientific drilling projects and international humanitarian aid projects. Grounded theory and case-study methodology were adopted when developing the typology, the conceptual model and when validating the design management model, as it involved empirical enquiry that afforded investigation of the remote site design management phenomenon within a real-life contexts. Two main case studies were undertaken to test the model, one being an historical Antarctic Science Drilling Project and the other, a current UN Humanitarian Project in Sudan. The findings to date support the conceptual design management model as being relevant for not only non-profit and/or Humanitarian Aid projects in the Post-disaster Reconstruction context, but also for commercially based Antarctic Science projects. Subsequently, the model has also been applied to a Post-disaster Reconstruction project in Aceh managed by the Jesuit Refugee Services (JRS).

Abstract:
Vid tillfällen då det inte lämpar sig att stå vid en videokamera kan det lösas med ett fjärrstyrt kamerafäste. Exempel på tillfällen är på grund av platsbrist på en konsert, en högtidsceremoni där någon måste stå konstigt till för att få bra bild, ute i naturen där djur ska filmas utan att bli ivägskrämda eller vid personalbrist, en tight budget och måste styra flera kameror samtidigt. De system som finns tillgängliga på amatörmarknaden idag har antingen annan funktionalitet och passar sig inte för ovanstående problem eller har väldigt begränsad räckvidd och går inte att sammankoppla med en mobilapplikation. Detta projekt går ut på att ta fram en kostnadseffektiv och skräddarsydd lösning för ovanstående problem genom att utveckla ett fjärrstyrt kamerafäste i semiproffssegmentet där det via en handkontroll och vid senare skede med en mobilapplikation styr kamerans lutning och rotation även kallad tiltning och panorering. Skillnaderna mellan denna och befintliga lösningar är att med hjälp av Bluetooth-tekniken kan styra både med handkontroll och senare även med en mobilapplikation, anledningen till att det skall kunna styra med båda är att det inte alltid är tillåtet att använda sig av mobiltelefoner i alla miljöer där man vill filma och därför får ett bredare användningsområde för kamerafästet.At times when it is not suited to stand by a video camera can be resolved with a remote controlled camera mount. Examples of occasions is due to lack of space at a concert, a solemn ceremony in which someone must stand awkwardly to to get good image, out in nature where animals shall be filmed without being frightened away or when you have staff shortages, a tight budget and need to control multiple cameras simultaneously. The systems that are available in the amateur market today have different functionality and is not fitting for the above problem or have very limited range and cannot connect to a mobile application. This project aims to develop a cost-effective and customized solution for the above problem by developing a remote-controlled camera mount in semi-professional segment where you through a controller and at a later stage with a mobile application controls the camera angle and rotation also called tilt and pan. The differences between this and existing solutions are that by using Bluetooth technology can control both the controller and later on also with a mobile application, the reason why it must be able to control both is that it is not always allowed to use cell phones in all environments where you want to film and therefore have a wider range of applications for camera mounting.

Abstract:
This thesis reports on experiments into whether abrasives, lasers or solvents can remove ordinary black toner-print from ordinary white office paper in a way that leaves the paper reusable. If it could be ‘un-printed’ then waste office-paper could be reused immediately, without the need for recycling. There has been no academic work on un-printing, but some relevant patents have been filed. The second chapter reviews these patents according to whether they remove, obscure or de-colour the original print. It is not clear from the patents whether toner-print can be removed by abrasives, lasers, or solvents without rendering the paper unusable. These three approaches are tested experimentally and the results reported in chapters 3, 4 & 5. Abrasives can remove toner-print with limited damage to the underlying paper by operating in an adhesive wear regime. This involves making ten passes with a fine P800 abrasive rubbing at high speeds (6 m/s) and low loads (0.3N). Longer wavelength lasers are able to remove the toner-print and leave blank paper undamaged by operating at 1 W and 10kHz in the 1064 nm wavelength and scanning across the surface eight times at 400 mm/s. Unfortunately the paper beneath the print is yellowed during removal. A 40:60 mixture chloroform and dimethylsulfoxide effectively dissolves toner without dissolving paper if agitated with ultrasound for four minutes.

Abstract:
A remote residential control system enables home users to remotely manage devices at their homes. These devices may include energy management, security surveillance, household appliances, consumer electronics, etc. This system involves technologies in home automation, home networking, and interfacing a home network with external networks. However, lacking a single standard poses a big challenge to the design of such a system. This thesis proposed three methods of turning an IP Set-Top Box into a remote residential control platform. Additionally, future trends are discussed. Various technologies in the fields mentioned above are also examined.Ett system för fjärrstyrning av intelligenta hem (remote residential control system) är ett system som möjliggör för hemanvändare att på distans övervaka och styra utrustning i hemmet. Denna utrustning kan vara energiövervakning, säkerhetsutrustning, hushållsapparater, konsumentelektronik, etc. Det saknas dock en gemensam standard, vilket gör det till en stor utmaning att konstruera ett sådant system. I detta examensarbete föreslås tre sätt att göra en set-top box till en plattform för fjärrstyrning av intelligenta hem. Framtida trender diskuteras också. Olika tekniker inom nämnda områden undersöks[.]

Abstract:
Les champs de lumière ont attisé la curiosité durant ces dernières décennies. Capturés par une caméra plénoptique ou un ensemble de caméras, ils échantillonnent la fonction plénoptique qui informe sur la radiance de n'importe quel rayon lumineux traversant la scène observée. Les champs lumineux offrent de nombreuses applications en vision par ordinateur comme en infographie, de la reconstruction 3D à la segmentation, en passant par la synthèse de vue, l'inpainting ou encore le matting par exemple.Dans ce travail nous nous attelons au problème de reconstruction du champ de lumière dans le but de synthétiser une image, comme si elle avait été prise par une caméra plus proche du sujet de la scène que l'appareil de capture plénoptique. Notre approche consiste à formuler la reconstruction du champ lumineux comme un problème de rendu basé image (IBR). La plupart des algorithmes de rendu basé image s'appuient dans un premier temps sur une reconstruction 3D approximative de la scène, appelée proxy géométrique, afin d'établir des correspondances entre les points image des vues sources et ceux de la vue cible. Une nouvelle vue est générée par l'utilisation conjointe des images sources et du proxy géométrique, bien souvent par la projection des images sources sur le point de vue cible et leur fusion en intensité.Un simple mélange des couleurs des images sources ne garantit pas la cohérence de l'image synthétisée. Nous proposons donc une méthode de rendu direct multi-échelles basée sur les pyramides de laplaciens afin de fusionner les images sources à toutes les fréquences, prévenant ainsi l'apparition d'artefacts de rendu.Mais l'imperfection du proxy géométrique est aussi la cause d'artefacts de rendu, qui se traduisent par du bruit en haute fréquence dans l'image synthétisée. Nous introduisons une nouvelle méthode de rendu variationnelle avec des contraintes sur les gradients de l'image cible dans le but de mieux conditionner le système d'équation linéaire à résoudre et supprimer les artefacts de rendu dus au proxy.Certaines scènes posent de grandes difficultés de reconstruction du fait du caractère non-lambertien éventuel de certaines surfaces~; d'autre part même un bon proxy ne suffit pas, lorsque des réflexions, transparences et spécularités remettent en cause les règles de la parallaxe. Nous proposons méthode originale basée sur l'approximation locale de l'espace plénoptique à partir d'un échantillonnage épars afin de synthétiser n'importe quel point de vue sans avoir recours à la reconstruction explicite d'un proxy géométrique. Nous évaluons notre méthode à la fois qualitativement et quantitativement sur des scènes non-triviales contenant des matériaux non-lambertiens.Enfin nous ouvrons une discussion sur le problème du placement optimal de caméras contraintes pour le rendu basé image, et sur l'utilisation de nos algorithmes pour la vision d'objets dissimulés derrière des camouflages.Les différents algorithmes proposés sont illustrés par des résultats sur des jeux de données plénoptiques structurés (de type grilles de caméras) ou non-structurésLight fields have gathered much interest during the past few years. Captured from a plenoptic camera or a camera array, they sample the plenoptic function that provides rich information about the radiance of any ray passing through the observed scene. They offer a pletora of computer vision and graphics applications: 3D reconstruction, segmentation, novel view synthesis, inpainting or matting for instance.Reconstructing the light field consists in recovering the missing rays given the captured samples. In this work we cope with the problem of reconstructing the light field in order to synthesize an image, as if it was taken by a camera closer to the scene than the input plenoptic device or set of cameras. Our approach is to formulate the light field reconstruction challenge as an image-based rendering (IBR) problem. Most of IBR algorithms first estimate the geometry of the scene, known as a geometric proxy, to make correspondences between the input views and the target view. A new image is generated by the joint use of both the input images and the geometric proxy, often projecting the input images on the target point of view and blending them in intensity.A naive color blending of the input images do not guaranty the coherence of the synthesized image. Therefore we propose a direct multi-scale approach based on Laplacian rendering to blend the source images at all the frequencies, thus preventing rendering artifacts.However, the imperfection of the geometric proxy is also a main cause of rendering artifacts, that are displayed as a high-frequency noise in the synthesized image. We introduce a novel variational rendering method with gradient constraints on the target image for a better-conditioned linear system to solve, removing the high-frequency noise due to the geometric proxy.Some scene reconstructions are very challenging because of the presence of non-Lambertian materials; moreover, even a perfect geometric proxy is not sufficient when reflections, transparencies and specularities question the rules of parallax. We propose an original method based on the local approximation of the sparse light field in the plenoptic space to generate a new viewpoint without the need for any explicit geometric proxy reconstruction. We evaluate our method both quantitatively and qualitatively on non-trivial scenes that contain non-Lambertian surfaces.Lastly we discuss the question of the optimal placement of constrained cameras for IBR, and the use of our algorithms to recover objects that are hidden behind a camouflage.The proposed algorithms are illustrated by results on both structured (camera arrays) and unstructured plenoptic datasets

Abstract:
The aim of this thesis is to study and advance technology relating to remote rendering of Virtual Reality (VR). In remote rendering, rendered content is commonly streamed as video images in network packets from a server to a client. Experiments are conducted with varying networks and configurations throughout this work as well as with different technologies that enable or improve remote VR experiences. As an introduction to the field, the thesis begins with related studies on 360-video. Here, a statistic based on throughput alone is proposed for use in light-weight performance monitoring of encrypted HTTPS 360-video streams. The statistic gives an indication of the potential of stalls in the video stream which may be of use for network providers wanting to allocate bandwidth optimally. Moving on from 360-video into real-time remote rendering, a wireless VR adapter, TPCAST, is studied and a method for monitoring the inputand video-throughput of this device is proposed and implemented. With the monitoring tool, it is for example possible to identify video stalls that occur in TPCAST and thus determine a baseline of its robustness in terms of video delivery. Having determined the baseline, we move on to developing a prototype remote rendering system for VR. The prototype has so far been used to study the bitrate requirements of remote VR and to develop a novel method that can be used to reduce the image size from a codec-perspective by utilizing the Hidden Area Mesh (HAM) that is unique to VR. By reducing the image size, codecs can run faster and time will therefore be saved each frame, potentially reducing the latency of the system.
