Abstract:

New interactive computing applications are continually being developed in a bid to support people's changing work and recreational activities. As research focuses on one particular class of interactive systems, high level models of interaction are formulated and requirements emerge that reflect shared features or common functionality among those systems. The existence of models of interaction and shared functional requirements mean that support tools can be created which ease the subsequent development of these systems. Support tools most often take the form of architectures or frameworks that

Abstract:

It is now widely acknowledged that the Greek epic tradition, best known from Homer, dates back into the Mycenaean Age, and that certain aspects of epic language point to an origin for this type of verse before the date of the extant Linear B tablets. This thesis argues that not only is this so, but that indeed before the end of the Mycenaean Age epic verse was composed in a distinctive literary language characterized by the presence of alternative forms used for metrical convenience. Such alternatives included dialectal variants and forms which were retained in epic once obsolete in everyday s

Abstract:

This paper concerns the creation and evaluation of a branching story written by the author. Branching storylines are unique in that each branch delivers a different experience, wherefore this paper poses and attempts to answer the question, is it possible to offer similar learning experiences regardless of which story path is taken in a branching story structure? As a case study, the story is written for a pervasive game, an application for Android phones. Due to the game’s design and wishing to motivate the players to move around on their own, it was written to be segmented and yet have linea

Supply chains in many industries are experiencing an ever-growing complexity.

Osteoarthritis (OA) affects nearly 27 million people alone and is the leading cause of chronic disability in the US. Current treatment methods target pain relief for OA via non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) since there are currently no clinically approved disease modifying osteoarthritis drugs (DMOADs) demonstrating efficacy. Despite multiple pre-clinical DMOAD experiments being conducted, the screening rate for drugs is severely limited by the lack of sensitivity of outcome measures and the time consuming process to achieve them.

This study seeks to renew interest in the poetically constructed landscapes of Ovid’s Metamorphoses. Far from existing as mere background to the epic, close investigation and analysis reveals the reflective relationship and mutually exerted force between landscape and narrative. Detailed readings show how the landscapes are created in order to reveal Ovid’s poetic programme, especially as concerns the intersection of genre; landscape descriptions are read as interpretive strategies for understanding the crossing of genres that comprise Ovid’s hyper-Alexandrian epic.

O Rotting Sun is a pair of long narrative poems that leap, spanning over an epic-length manuscript—175 pages of prose block, lyrical verse, and projective verse. Its chief poetic-operational modes are: inclusion, fragmentation, textual destructions, intentional omissions, intentional misspelling, large narrative leaps; all of which engage a poetics of doubt and multiplicity. O Rotting Sun is a jarring and jangly poem of resistance, intended if possible, for being read aloud and argued with: a provocation of intense meditation, reflection, and when successful, disintegration of anger & agonism—

Such biomarkers would allow the improved identification of risk factors and high risk individuals, as well as an enhanced understanding of lymphomageneisis.

Abstract:

Considerando o conceito de épico tal como o analisado por teóricos do teatro como Szondi (2001) e Rosenfeld (2006), este trabalho objetiva empreender a análise de elementos épicos presentes na estrutura de The American Clock (O Relógio Americano, 1980), do dramaturgo norte-americano Arthur Miller (1915-2005). O estudo será de como a forma teatral desta peça (com seus traços épicos) representa cenicamente a Grande Depressão econômica que assolou os Estados Unidos após a quebra da bolsa de valores em 1929 e durante toda a década de 1930. The American Clock conta com mais de 40 personagens (muito

Abstract:

Understanding Gilgamesh – brokenly – is to understand life brokenly. The Epic of Gilgamesh is the narrative of life. It records the full cycle of the nerve and aplomb of youth, of the doubt and crisis of midlife, of the acceptance and quiescience of maturity. Moreover, this understanding is a broken understanding. It starts with the clay tablets that are broken in a literal sense of the word. Further, the narrative is a narrative of broken-ness – the story ends in tears. A man has lost his last chance of obtaining life everlasting. Yet he manages to recuperate despite his failure. The first pa

Abstract:

A presente tese de doutorado realiza uma revisão e uma reinterpretação de textos épicos e suas variantes híbridas no Brasil, desde as tendências neoclássicas, do séc. XVIII, às românticas, do século XIX, que correspondem aos “momentos decisivos” da formação da literatura brasileira segundo Antonio Candido. É feita, ao mesmo tempo, uma releitura da crítica literária brasileira, tendo foco principal a observação, em nova perspectiva, da Formação da Literatura Brasileira (1959), de modo a repensar os índices de formação nesses textos e, também, a sua relação com a formação do Brasil-nação.

Abstract:

L’étude du long poème épique de Lion de Bourges permet de mettre en évidence un parcours individuel modelé par la recherche d’un ordre politique et féodal, au sein duquel le héros tente d’inscrire son action, celle d’un ordre familial, au travers du lignage et de la parentèle, et celle d’un ordre personnel, à la fois recherche des origines et du père, qui devient une quête d’identité. L'idéal chevaleresque s’inscrit donc dans trois perspectives complémentaires. C’est d’abord face à l’instabilité des structures et du pouvoir royal, l’aspiration au rétablissement d’un ordre politique, mais l’ina

Abstract:

La présence des paradoxes stoïciens dans l’œuvre de poètes dont les liens avec le Portique sont divers révèle le statut particulier occupé par ces formules déconcertantes dans la pensée romaine. Après l’étude des origines du paradoxe et de ses transformations au cours du développement des écoles philosophiques grecques, la thèse examine la spécificité du paradoxe stoïcien et son adaptation au monde romain. Contre toute attente, les Stoïciens ne renoncent pas à ces affirmations déconcertantes. Grâce à leur efficacité rhétorique, et malgré l’hostilité qu’ils suscitent par ailleurs, les paradoxes

Abstract:

Research in nuclear fusion devices is motivated by the increasing global demand of low-cost and eco-friendly energy. To meet the requirements for an economically attractive fusion power plant, new real-time control and data acquisition systems that support quasi-continuous plasma operation and unstable plasma scenarios have to be investigated. This thesis covers hardware and software design and codesign issues in real-time control and data acquisition for quasi-continuous nuclear experiments, with emphasis on the choice of data acquisition and generation hardware, central processing units,

Abstract:

This study argues for the centrality of dance to the style and structure of three modern epics: H.D.'s Helen in Egypt, William Carlos Williams' Paterson and James Joyce's Ulysses. My critical approach is twofold: I examine how the modern epic is conceptualized through dance aesthetics, and I analyze how the performative motifs in the texts signify, through dance, issues of gender, race and sexuality. Stuart Gilbert asserts that The Dance of the Hours is an important structural device in Ulysses; however, the influence of dance on the epic been critically overlooked. Although Williams, a dance
