Abstract:
In the last 15-20 years, the character of genealogical research has transformed gradually. Thus, genealogy is changing into a modern academic discipline. The modern genealogy is supported by digitization of public and genealogical records. At the same time, the new technologies are affecting the development of home-based genealogical research services. The goal of this paper is to offer more ways of encouraging entrepreneurship for genealogists, including the role of the education system and research skills that are especially critical in the field of genealogy and in genealogists' success in their business

Abstract:
Abstract Why would philosophers interested in the points or functions of our conceptual practices bother with genealogical explanations if they can focus directly on paradigmatic examples of the practices we now have?? To answer this question, I compare the method of pragmatic genealogy advocated by Edward Craig, Bernard Williams, and Miranda Fricker—a method whose singular combination of fictionalising and historicising has met with suspicion—with the simpler method of paradigm-based explanation. Fricker herself has recently moved towards paradigm-based explanation, arguing that it is a more perspicuous way of reaping the same explanatory pay-off as pragmatic genealogy while dispensing with its fictionalising and historicising. My aim is to determine when and why the reverse movement from paradigm-based explanation to pragmatic genealogy remains warranted. I argue that the fictionalising and historicising of pragmatic genealogy is well motivated, and I outline three ways in which the method earns its keep: by successfully handling historically inflected practices which paradigm-based explanation cannot handle; by revealing and arguing for connections to generic needs we might otherwise miss; and by providing comprehensive views of practices that place and relate the respects in which they serve both generic and local needs.

Abstract:
Product variation and customization is a trend in current market-oriented manufacturing environment. Product configuration is the key technology in this customization environment. But complex customer requirements are still hard to resolve. So the purpose of this study is to offering a new intelligent configuration algorithm to this problem, which is based on Product Family Genealogy Model (PFG). Characteristics of customer group, modules and product platform are discussed to build a PFG model - a hierarchy of reasonable configuration models. Based on it, both the customer requirements and constraints are classified and treated respectively. So the product configuration task can be easily accomplished by four sequenced stages i.e. “PFG position”, “key configuration”, “basic configuration”, and “form configuration”. Finally, an example of desktop configuration is presented to demonstrate this approach.

Abstract:
Since the remaining Shinsenyojiroku is a summary, there is a limit to understanding its full extent. As a way to supplement this, we looked at the contents and characteristics of genealogy and genealogical table in ancient Japan. As a result of this review, it was confirmed that the concept of genealogy and genealogical table in ancient Japan is very different from the descendant group logic that we commonly know. In particular, it has been found that it is difficult to apply the paternal principle, which can be seen in the current genealogy of Korea, to ancient Japanese society. Representatively, even in the case of the succession of the political head's position, it was not necessary to have father-to-son relationships, but it was possible that a wide range of relatives or sons-in-law succeed the position. In the case of Silla, there are cases that the throne was handed down to the son-in-law. Talhae, King Namhae's son-in-law, ascended the throne, and Michu was also King Jeomhae's son-in-law. In addition, as seen in the genealogy centered on Prince Shotoku and Tachibana, it can be confirmed that there was a classified genealogy that marked both paternal and maternal families, such as recording the parents of two people and their parents together. In this case, the descendants may again claim their affiliation to both the paternal and maternal families. A specific example is Mononobe Yugehi no Moriya. In addition, Doukyou, who is not a direct descendant of Moriya, also tried to rise to the post of prime minister through Moriya. This can be said that Uji is adjusted in a strong political intention rather than reflecting a realistic blood relationship. Finally, we looked at Wake's genalogical table. Based on Inaginoobito's genealogy, firstly the genealogy of Iyowakenokimi and others were joined, and finally the genealogy of Takekunikoriwake seen in Nihonsioki and others was joined. Therefore, in the case of the genalogical table, it is believed that the genealogy of the clan, which was not completed with a neat genealogy centered on the origin, was often combined with the genealogy of the father, mother and the same job relationship. As such, Uji's important function was to show the origin of the position and function. Considering Shinsenshojiroku's record, it is essential to keep in mind these characteristics of ancient Japanese Uji.

Abstract:
AbstractConsider a haploid population of fixed finite size with a finite number of allele types and having Cannings exchangeable genealogy with neutral mutation. The stationary distribution of the Markov chain of allele counts in each generation is an important quantity in population genetics but has no tractable description in general. We provide upper bounds on the distributional distance between the Dirichlet distribution and this finite-population stationary distribution for the Wright–Fisher genealogy with general mutation structure and the Cannings exchangeable genealogy with parent independent mutation structure. In the first case, the bound is small if the population is large and the mutations do not depend too much on parent type; 'too much' is naturally quantified by our bound. In the second case, the bound is small if the population is large and the chance of three-mergers in the Cannings genealogy is small relative to the chance of two-mergers; this is the same condition to ensure convergence of the genealogy to Kingman's coalescent. These results follow from a new development of Stein's method for the Dirichlet distribution based on Barbour's generator approach and a probabilistic description of the semigroup of the Wright–Fisher diffusion due to Griffiths and Li (1983) and Tavaré (1984).

Abstract:
SummaryThe degree of starshape of a genealogy is readily detectable using summary statistics and can be taken as a surrogate for the effect of past demography and other non-neutral forces. Summary statistics such as Tajima's D and related measures are commonly used for this. However, it is well known that because of their neglect of the genealogy underlying a sample such neutrality tests are far from ideal. Here, we investigate the properties of two types of summary statistics that are derived by considering the genealogy: (i) genealogical ratios based on the number of mutations on the rootward branches, which can be inferred from sequence data using a simple algorithm and (ii) summary statistics that use properties of a perfectly star-shaped genealogy. The power of these measures to detect a history of exponential growth is compared with that of standard summary statistics and a likelihood method for the single and multi-locus case. Statistics that depend on pairwise measures such as Tajima's D have comparatively low power, being sensitive to the random topology of the underlying genealogy. When analysing multi-locus data, we find that the genealogical measures are most powerful. Provided reliable outgroup information is available they may constitute a useful alternative to full likelihood estimation and standard tests of neutrality.

This research discusses the naturalization of the idea of a âchild with a sayâ in contemporary critical-scientific discourses. This conception was constituted in these discourses so as to criticize the idea of modern childhood, related, among other things, to notions of immaturity and dependence on adults. The figure of subjectivity âchild with a sayâ is used to justify an ensemble of varied practices â juridical (âchild-witnessâ), political (âcitizen child"), mediatic (âprotagonist childâ), educational (âcompetent childâ) â which aims at investing on the child figure for which the constitution of a child as a subject of opinion and representation is determinant. The analysis of this discursive field â which comprises Sociology of Childhood, Anthropology of Childhood, Pedagogy of Childhood and Social Psychology â based on M. Foucaultâs archaeo-genealogy, identified the kinds of statements present in this network, as well as the kind of discourse used. It was noticed that the functioning of these discourses depends on some presuppositions, which, in this research, are denominated mechanisms of critical discursivity. They are: the development of the concept representations of childhood and child, the constitution of the adult as an interdictor, the rediscovery of childhood, speech as a natural possibility and the idealization of the âchildhood with a speechâ. It was concluded that such presuppositions cooperate to produce the âchildhood with a speechâ as evidence, to which knowledge must devote itself and experience. Finally, an assemblage of investigation lines were elaborated and served as a base for the constitution of a genealogy of this subjectivity figure, typical of present times.

A anÃlise deste campo discursivo - do qual fazem parte a Sociologia da infÃncia, a Antropologia da infÃncia, a Pedagogia da infÃncia, a Psicologia social - a partir da arqueogenealogia de M. Foucault, levou à identificaÃÃo dos tipos de enunciado presentes nesta rede, assim como do tipo de discursividade em jogo. Viu-se que o funcionamento desses discursos depende de alguns pressupostos, os quais se denominam, nesta pesquisa, dispositivos da discursividade crÃtica. SÃo eles: a evoluÃÃo das concepÃÃes de infÃncia e crianÃa, a constituiÃÃo do adulto como um interditor, a redescoberta da infÃncia, a fala como uma possibilidade natural e a idealizaÃÃo da âinfÃncia que falaâ. Concluiu-se que tais pressupostos concorrem para a produÃÃo da âinfÃncia que falaâ como uma evidÃncia, à qual os saberes devem se dedicar a conhecer.

Abstract:
Abstract The Finnish notion of academic, scientific, research-based teacher education has become a frequently referred to idea within the Finnish educational discourses of research, policy, curriculum and practice. This study examines the current discourse of research based teacher education since its emergence during the 1970s reform that ‘scientized’ teacher education. Drawing on Foucauldian approaches of genealogy and governmentality studies, the purpose of this study is to explore the current presence of ‘research’ in Finnish teacher education and consider the effects of the ways in which the notion of research is mobilised in the discourse. The research questions are: 1. How are teacher subjectivities and notions of research constructed, assembled and mobilised in the discourse of research-based teacher education in Finland? 2. What social ideals circumscribe the aspirations for teachers as researchers and research-based teacher education in Finland? The analysis is carried out on academic publications that have been published on Finnish research-based teacher education. The findings, first, point to the discursive insertion of research into Finnish teacher education as a strategy through which to fabricate the teacher as autonomous and as emancipated from tradition. Secondly, the analysis addresses how an array of different significations of research are mobilised in the governing of the teacher as researcher. Thirdly, the analysis draws attention to the Lutheran Protestant legacy of the tradition of Bildung that has influenced the weak incentive for social and political orientations in Finnish teacher education. The effects of a scientific approach to teacher education are visible in the ways research-based teacher education comes to evoke specific teacher inner qualities and dispositions that are aligned with humanist aspirations and ideals for education and social progress. The study provides an alternative way for perceiving of and problematizing research-based teacher education as well as of the often uneasy relationship between teacher training and the university. In this way, the study attempts to complicate conversations and open up alternative ways of engaging with academic knowledge and practices in teacher education curriculum and research
Tiivistelmä Suomalaista kasvatusta koskevissa tutkimuksen, poliittisten linjausten, opetussuunnitelmien ja käytänteiden diskursseissa viitataan usein akateemiseen, tieteelliseen, tutkimusperustaiseen opettajankoulutukseen. Tässä tutkimuksessa tarkastellaan 1970-luvun tieteellistämisuudistuksen käynnistämää, nykymuotoisen tutkimusperustaisen opettajankoulutuksen diskurssia. Tutkimus ammentaa foucault’laisista genealogian ja hallinnan tutkimuksen lähestymistavoista. Tutkimustehtävänä on tarkastella “tutkimuksen” ilmenemismuotoja nykyisessä suomalaisessa opettajankoulutuksessa sekä näiden diskursiivisia vaikutuksia. Tutkimuskysymykset ovat: 1. Millä tavoin opettajasubjektiviteetit ja käsitykset “tutkimuksesta” rakentuvat, mobilisoituvat ja asettuvat toisiinsa nähden tutkimusperustaisen opettajankoulutuksen diskurssissa Suomessa? 2. Millaiset yhteiskunnalliset ihanteet määrittävät suomalaisen opettajankoulutuksen pyrkimyksiä kohti tutkivaa opettajuutta ja tutkimusperustaista opettajankoulutusta? Tutkimuksessa analysoidaan akateemisia julkaisuja suomalaisesta tutkimusperustaisesta opettajankoulutuksesta. Tutkimustulokset osoittavat “tutkimuksen” ilmentymisen suomalaisessa opettajankoulutuksessa strategiana, jonka kautta tuotetaan autonomisia opettajasubjekteja ja emansipoidaan opettaja tradition vallasta. Toiseksi analyysi tuo näkyviin, millä tavoin “tutkimuksen” eri merkitykset tulevat valjastetuiksi tutkivan opettajan hallinnassa. Kolmanneksi analyysi kiinnittää huomiota luterilaisen protestantismin vaikutuksiin sivistysajattelussa, mikä selittää suomalaisen opettajankoulutuksen heikkoa yhteiskunnallista ja poliittista orientaatiota. Tieteellisen lähestymistavan vaikutukset opettajankoulutukseen ilmenevät siinä, miten tutkimusperustainen opettajankoulutus tulee herättäneeksi opettajan sisäisiä ominaisuuksia ja mielenlaatuja, joita määrittävät humanistiset ideaalit kasvatuksesta ja yhteiskunnallisesta edistyksestä. Tutkimus tarjoaa vaihtoehtoisen tavan hahmottaa ja kyseenalaistaa tutkimusperustaista opettajankoulutusta sekä opettajankoulutuksen ja yliopiston usein ongelmallista suhdetta. Näinollen tutkimus pyrkii syventämään keskusteluja ja avaamaan vaihtoehtoisia tapoja tarkastella akateemista tietoa ja käytänteitä niin opettajankoulutuksen opetussuunnitelman kuin tutkimuksen osalta

Abstract:
Clones are a matter of great concern to the software engineering community because of their dual but contradictory impact on software maintenance. While there is strong empirical evidence of the harmful impact of clones on maintenance, a number of studies have also identified positive sides of code cloning during maintenance. Recently, to help determine if clones are beneficial or not during software maintenance, software researchers have been conducting studies that measure source code stability (the likelihood that code will be modified) of cloned code compared to non-cloned code. If the presence of clones in program artifacts (files, classes, methods, variables) causes the artifacts to be more frequently changed (i.e., cloned code is more unstable than non-cloned code), clones are considered harmful. Unfortunately, existing stability studies have resulted in contradictory results and even now there is no concrete answer to the research question "Is cloned or non-cloned code more stable during software maintenance?" The possible reasons behind the contradictory results of the existing studies are that they were conducted on different sets of subject systems with different experimental setups involving different clone detection tools investigating different stability metrics. Also, there are four major types of clones (Type 1: exact; Type 2: syntactically similar; Type 3: with some added, deleted or modified lines; and, Type 4: semantically similar) and none of these studies compared the instability of different types of clones. Focusing on these issues we perform an empirical study implementing seven methodologies that calculate eight stability-related metrics on the same experimental setup to compare the instability of cloned and non-cloned code in the maintenance phase. We investigated the instability of three major types of clones (Type 1, Type 2, and Type 3) from different dimensions. We excluded Type 4 clones from our investigation, because the existing clone detection tools cannot detect Type 4 clones well. According to our in-depth investigation on hundreds of revisions of 16 subject systems covering four different programming languages (Java, C, C#, and Python) using two clone detection tools (NiCad and CCFinder) we found that clones generally exhibit higher instability in the maintenance phase compared to non-cloned code. Specifically, Type 1 and Type 3 clones are more unstable as well as more harmful compared to Type 2 clones. However, although clones are generally more unstable sometimes they exhibit higher stability than non-cloned code. We further investigated the effect of clones on another important aspect of stability: method co-changeability (the degree methods change together). Intuitively, higher method co-changeability is an indication of higher instability of software systems. We found that clones do not have any negative effect on method co-changeability; rather, cloning can be a possible way of minimizing method co-changeability when clones are likely to evolve independently. Thus, clones have both positive and negative effects on software stability. Our empirical studies demonstrate how we can effectively use the positive sides of clones by minimizing their negative impacts.

This thesis studies the ethnicity border of Hla’alua in the present age. Hla’alua is a newly recognized 15th aboriginal peoples in Taiwan in 2014, but Hla’alua people have mixed with Bunun people for a long time. After intermarrying and turning language, the ethnicity border of Hla’alua became blurred, and the only criterion left today is their clan system. This thesis makes use of the data acquiring from interviewing Hla’alua people and the household registration of Japanese ruled period to complete the family tree of each clans in Hla’alua, and using them to discuss the cognition and constitution of the ethnicity border from Hla’alua people in present. Hla’alua people do not have the tradition to pass down the knowledge of family tree, and the average memory to their clans and ancestors is vague. The research reveals that Hla’alua people’s acknowledgements of part of their clans are confused. It can be concluded that is result from two reasons: (1) the transferring of Japanese family name, Chinese last name and clan’s name (2) the misunderstanding of the concepts of the clan, the four systems of Hla’alua and the family name registrated in the household registration of Japanese ruled period. Furthermore, even some clans still existed decades ago could be forgotten, and Hla’alua people lived in Namasia area even forgot which clan they belong to. It shows that Hla’alua people now accept child as one of them either their father or mother is Hla’alua, even including matrilocal man. The problems that their language is endangered and the clan system became unsolid have awaked the sense of crisis, and Hla’alua people start trying to reinforce their ethnicity border. They also make a concrete demonstration of their ethnicity border they defined through the houses of each clan on their own festival “Miatungusu”.

Machilus thunbergii distributed in Asia mainland, South Korea, Southern Korea, Southern Japan, the Ryukyus, Taiwan, and Phillipine. M. kusanoi is a species endemic to Taiwan. These two species belong to Lauraceae-Machilus breed and both widely distributed in Taiwan albeit in different altitudinal zones and habitats. In this study, there were 108 and 106 individuals from 25 and 16 sampling sites through their distributional range analysis by sequencing one mitochondrial DNA intron fragment (nad7/1~nad7/2r). These two species presented different genealogy relationships but the same demographic history. Ancestral haplotype was fixed in most populations in M. thunbergii according to distribution of haplotypes. The main genetic diversity and haplotype diversity in M. thunbergii was found in west of the Central Mountain Ridge (CMR), particularly, these populations of northwest and central areas. Fanlu could be a source population of M. kusanoi due to it has the highest genetic diversity, haplotype diversity, genetic differences FST, contributions to diversity and allelic richness. The mismatch distribution presented range expansion in M. kusanoi. However, the star-like genealogy showed in M. thunbergii, significant negative Tajima’s D*, Fu & Li’s D* and F in analysis including nine populations of M. thunbergii along the Shueshan Ridge and a nearly unimodel were all support to population expansion happen in M. thunbergii. And the Shueshan Ridge was inferred to potential refugium. About linkage disequilibrium (LD) between mitochondrial and chloroplastic DNA were showed that significant LD existed between nad7/1-nad7/2r fragment of mtDNA and trnF-trnL ftagment of chloroplastic DNA in both M. thunbergii and M. kusanoi to prove their have co-transmission. In M. thunbergii, a variation of trnV-trnM fragment of chloroplastic DNA made weak association was inferred to derive from paternal leakage.

Abstract This research, combining fashion design and sexuality, additionally applies the concept of power in the Michael Foucault’s “the history of sexuality” to analyze the hidden sex ideology in the women fashion magazine and understand how it expands. Besides this research explains the applicability and the limitations of Foucault’s theories on the nowadays Taiwan society and women fashion magazine. By collecting and presenting data, it let the fashion design researchers have rules to follow and utilize. By analyze the ELLE of year 2001, a fashion magazine, it can be summarized as the following: 1. The context of magazine presents the superior western culture ideology: It uses the western physical aesthetics and sex identification as referring standards to let such imaginary symbols expressing superior sex ideology push the female consumers pursue the perfect body by spending money to reform themselves. Respectively, the time spent by the women in the professional fields is much less than the men. 2. Analysis on the law filed: The law enacts the performable and not performable part of body and outlines the rules of main-stream sexual relationship between husband and wife, by the infamous or illegal statement, emphasizing right or wrong moral judgment standard to transform it as active control power and mechanism. 3. Analysis on the knowledge field: By utilizing the power of professional knowledge to construct a system to explain the surrounding world to classify, exclude, make rules, limit qualification. According to the statistical data, each professional field to tell the body about right or wrong, normal/abnormal, beautiful/ugly, to induce consumers correcting or reinforcing. 4. Analysis on the advertisement field: Using the western white mid-class young women’s body as a standard to emphasize the white, slim, young conditions and features to preset the models as the men would like to peek. Putting the women’s body as a passive objection to be watched. The naturally periodical transformation and diversification of human is to be erased on purpose to emphasize the sex ideology of consistently standard beauty. The advertisement becomes ruling mechanism of body sense to let the people under its control no matter in the aspect of body, heart and society. 5. The clothes and body in the magazine has the meaning of the sex ideology to form a stable condition by using reforming and recalling to let the different types of classification influx and negotiate.

Abstract:

This thesis focuses on how, since the 1960s, farm viability in Australia has been constituted as a formal political problem by various authorities. It argues, in particular, that the 'problem' of farm viability has come to be based increasingly on the individual managerial capacities of farmers themselves. In the past thirty years, the issue of viability has been characterised by agricultural economists and governments alike as one of 'smoothing the process of change' whereby resources are re-distributed from farmers who are deemed to have little future in the industry, to the more economically 'viable' producers. This approach rests on the assumption that it is possible to define accurately viability - as the basis for eventual state action.

In contrast to this approach, the Foucauldian-inspired literature on governmentality points to the desirability of examining the contingent foundations upon which attempts to define, and govern, viable/unviable farmers are based. The thesis investigates the different ways in which farm viability has historically been governed as a knowable object, and the forms of conduct that this authorises. To do this, I reconstruct genealogically - commencing in the 1990s and working back to 1967 - the specific rationalities, technologies, and forms of expertise that have enabled farm viability to emerge as a governable problem, and to be assembled into a programmatic form. Policy documents, Acts of Parliament, parliamentary debates, agricultural economics literature, National Farmers' Federation publications, secondary data from a recent study on drought, and interviews with Federal and State public servants and farm organisation representatives are used as the basis for reconstructing how farm viability has been governed.

My thesis suggests that since the late 1980s, an 'advanced liberal' regime of governing has underpinned the governing of farm viability, with the adoption of formal business skills constituted as a means of providing farmers with the appropriate capacities to manage their properties. However, the governing of producers in this way has not always been seen as appropriate. The thesis examines how the constitution of viability has shifted since the late 1960s as part of attempts to define and redefine both 'normal' farms, and the capacities of farmers. This study concludes that the governing of farm viability is more complex than simply smoothing the process of change. Such change, and responses to it, are constituted and rendered knowable through a variety of rationalities and technologies of governing that attempt to shape the conduct of both authorities and farmers.

Abstract:
AbstractThis chapter of Animating Unpredictable Effects charts the development of the software tools used to create uncanny simulation-based digital animations, drawing a genealogy that starts with nineteenth century mathematics, which were transformed into management and prediction tools by private and military R&D between the 1940s and 1980s. Through this, the chapter identifies a connection between these animation tools and simulation tools used in fields as diverse as meteorology, nuclear physics, and aeronautics that create unpredictability through stochastic or dynamic simulation. Using this information, the chapter offers a theoretical framework for understanding how fictional simulations in animation and visual effects make meaning through “knowing how” as opposed to cinema’s tradition approach of “knowing that,” leveraging concepts from the history of science.

Abstract:
Explanations for gender-based violence often lead to myopic discussions of an elusive, almost mythical “culture” that implies that gender-based violence has always been and may always be part of society. These problematic notions of culture eclipse the very real material conditions and power structures that shape contexts of violence. This chapter stands in contrast to the idea that gender-based violence is “cultural.” South African service providers instead understand gender-based violence as existing within larger contexts of power and inequality. Service providers argue that gender-based violence is ensconced in the violence of poverty and inequality that were fostered by apartheid, in the slow violence of neoliberalism, and in the contemporary climate of xenophobia, substance abuse, and sexual entitlement.

Abstract:
We discussed genealogy DNA tests in Chapter 8. Here we focus on some practical matters to aid your engagement with genetic genealogy. We’ll survey which company you might choose for conducting your DNA test(s), explain how to interpret your results, and answer some common questions posed by genetic genealogy beginners (and even by some more advanced practitioners, too). Before seeking a company, identify what you hope to achieve. Different companies offer different types of tests, which reveal different genetic features and answer different questions, so knowing what you want to get from a DNA test will then allow you to choose from a list of companies offering that feature. Once you have a short list of suitable companies, you can choose based on practical criteria—price, convenience, appeal of website and presentation of data, privacy policy, and other factors. When you receive the results, you may want some help in interpreting the data and in identifying “matches,” your close and distant DNA relatives. We’ll also discuss a recommended free site, Gedmatch, and offer help for adoptees and others lacking known biological connections. In the latter half of the chapter we’ll explain some of the arcane terminology and address some common misconceptions encountered in the genetic genealogy community.

Abstract:
“Me tiro whakamuri, ki te haere whakamua. We must look to our past in order to move forward.” This whakataukī (proverb) speaks to Māori perspective of time and the importance of knowing your own history in order to move forward. We must look to our past and move as if we are walking backwards into our future. The present and past are certain, however, the future is unknown. Tangohia mai te taura: Take This Rope - is a practice-led research project, that enquires into a disputed narrative of the past. The thesis study involves researching, directing and producing a feature documentary about historical grievances within Te Whakatōhea and Te Whānau ā Mokomoko. The project artistically explores the potentials of documentary form in relation to Mātauranga Māori (Māori customs and knowledge) and kaupapa Māori (Māori research approaches). The research seeks to exhume stories from iwi members and question certain Pākehā constructed narratives (The Church Missionary, 1865; Taylor, 1868; McDonnell, 1887: Grace, 1928). Accordingly, the documentary will communicate outwards from accumulated experience and storytelling within my whānau. Thus, it will interweave the narratives of people whose whakapapa (genealogy) has been interwoven with historical events and their implications, related to the execution of my ancestor Mokomoko in 1866, and the preceding murder of the Reverend Carl Sylvius Völkner in 1885. Artistically and theoretically, the project constructs a new form of Māori documentary through a consideration of pūrākau (Pouwhare and McNeill 2018). The significance of the study lies in the potential to rethink documentary form based on the tenets of pūrākau. In so doing, the study will not only expand the corpus of research about Mokomoko but also extend how indigenous documentaries might be thought of as structures. Four key concepts that will guide the development of the film are: WHAKAPAPA - GENEALOGY Through genealogy, it builds my personal connection with the film, the interviewees and the community. But it also holds a strong responsibly for me to complete this film with the utmost respect and care. WHENUA and WHANAU – LAND and FAMILY With land and family at the centre of the film. Embodiment is an important part of how this film is created. I reconnected more with my extended family and actively seek out opportunities to attend wānanga (discussions) and perform kapa haka (Māori performing arts) specific to our land and family. TIKANGA – CUSTOMS The process and structures of making this film have followed tikanga Māori (Māori customs). Practising karakia and waiata (Māori prayers and songs) to perform before and after we film were key customs we believe are important when creating this film. These protocols are practised by the crew and affirm our rōpu (group) as a family. KOHA - RECIPROCATION Unlike traditional filming structures that schedule films to be completed in an economically and efficient way. Koha reinforces the concept of reciprocation, to give and receive. As the community gifts their time and stories, the film will be gifted back to those from which it came. Myself as the ringa toi (artist) must make conscious effort to go back to the iwi (local tribe) and being an active member within the town and supporting community initiatives. In addition, the study will demonstrate how the process of documentary making inside iwi can function as a form of raranga (weaving) where collaborating fragments may take form and through this increase feelings of value, healing, and historical redress.

Abstract:
A new approach to modelling the interaction between droplets and the carrier phase is suggested. The new model isapplied to the analysis of a spray injected into a chamber of quiescent air, using an Eulerian-Lagrangian approach. The conservative formulation of the equations for mass, momentum and energy transport is used for the analysis of the carrier phase. The dispersed phase is modelled using the Lagrangian approach with droplets represented by individual parcels.The implementation of the Discontinuous Galerkin method (ForestDG), based on a topological representation of the computational mesh by a hierarchical structure consisting of oct- quad- and binary trees, is used in our analysis. Adaptive mesh refinement (h-refinement) enables us to increase the spatial resolution for the computational mesh in the vicinity of the points of interest such as interfaces, geometrical features, or flow discontinuities. The local increase in the expansion order (p-refinement) at areas of high strain rates or vorticity magnitude results in an increase of the order of the accuracy of discretisation of shear layers and vortices.The initial domain consists of a graph of unitarian-trees representing hexahedral, prismatic and tetrahedral elements. The ancestral elements of the mesh can be split into self-similar elements allowing each tree to grow branches to an arbitrary level of refinement. The connectivity of the elements, their genealogy and their partitioning are described by linked lists of pointers. These are attached to the tree data structure which facilitates the on-the-fly splitting, merging and repartitioning of the computational mesh by rearranging the links of each node of the tree. This enables us to refine the computational mesh in the vicinity of the droplet parcels aiming to accurately resolve the coupling betweenthe two phases.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.4995/ILASS2017.2017.4671

Abstract:
There are close relationships between the cultural structures of societies and residential areas. The place where the society chooses to live and the ways it is organized is an expression of the cultural structure. Traditional houses are accepted as the most obvious indicator of this situation. One of the ways of preserving cultural sustainability today is to read the design principles of these houses correctly. Culture is about what kind of environment people live in and how they live. Human behaviors are based on cultural references. Religion, view of life and perceptions of the environment are both dialectically shaped culture and shaped by culture. Culture is about where and how human meets his needs throughout his life. It can be said that culture is one of the basic factors that direct human behavior and life. Therefore, the cultural embedding of sustainability thought is important in shaping the world in which future generations will live. Regarding various cultures in the literature; the structure of the society, their way of life and how they shape their places of residence, etc. there are many studies. The riches that each culture possesses are considered to be indisputable. These important studies are mostly based on an in-depth analysis of that culture, concentrating on a single specific culture. In this study, it is aimed to make a more holistic analysis by examining more than one culture. Thanks to this holistic perspective, it is thought that it will be possible to make inferences that can be considered as common to all societies. This study, which especially focuses on Asian and African societies, is the tendency of these societies to maintain their cultural structure compared to other societies. The reflections of cultural practices on residential spaces are examined through various examples. The dialectical structure of Berber houses, integration of Chinese houses with natural environmental references, Toroja houses associated with the genealogy in Indonesia, etc. examples will be examined in the context of cultural sustainability in this study. With this holistic approach, where the basic philosophy of cultural sustainability can be obtained, important references can be obtained in the design of today's residences. This paper was produced from an incomplete PhD dissertation named Evaluation of Cultural Sustainability in the Application of House Design at Yildiz Technical University, Social Sciences Institution, Art and Design Program

Abstract:
This presentation accounts a journey of the researcher’s practice-led doctoral project, Tangohia mai te taura: Take This Rope. The study involves researching, directing and producing a documentary about historical grievances to exhume stories from a Māori filmmaker’s community that call into question colonial accounts of the 1866 execution of their ancestor Mokomoko, and the preceding murder of the Reverend Carl Sylvius Völkner in 1885. As a consequence of an accusation of murder, Mokomoko was arrested for the crime, imprisoned and hanged, all the while protesting his innocence. In retribution, our people had their coveted lands confiscated by the government, and they became the pariahs of multiple historical accounts. The practice-led thesis study asks how a Māori documentary maker from this iwi (tribe) might reach into the grief and injustice of such an event in culturally sensitive ways to tell the story of generational impact. Accordingly, the documentary Ko Wai Au, seeks to communicate an individual’s reconnection to, and understanding of, accumulated knowledge and experience, much of which is stored inside an indigenous, dispossessed whānau (family), whose whakapapa (genealogy) is interwoven with historical events and their implications. As a member of a generation that has been incrementally removed from history and embodied pain of my whanau, through the study I come seeking my past in an effort to understand and contribute something useful that supports my people’s aspirations and agency in attaining value, healing, and historical redress. This presentation advances a distinctive embodied methodological approach based on whenua (land) and whanau (family). In this approach, the researcher employs karakia (traditional incantations), walking the land, thinking, listening to waiata (traditional songs) and aratika (feeling a ‘right’ way). My position is one of humility and co-creation. I am aware that the rōpū kaihanga kiriata (film crew) with whom I work will be called into the trusting heart of my whānau and we must remain attentive to Māori protocols and sensitivities. Given the responsibility of working inside a Kaupapa Māori research paradigm, methodology and methods are shaped by kawa and tikanga (customary values and protocols). Here one moves beyond remote analysis and researches sensitively ‘with’ and ‘within’, a community, knowing that te ao Māori (the Māori world) is at the core of how one will discover, record, and create.

Abstract:
Experiments on engineering design creativity are typically assessed using either process-based (e.g., protocol studies using a coding scheme) or outcome-based approaches (e.g., assessing the ideas generated using a set of metrics). The authors review existing metrics used in outcome-based creativity experiments and analyze their applicability and limitations. In particular, the focus is on a widely used set of metrics for engineering design creativity experiments developed by Shah et al. [17]. These metrics provide robust conceptual definitions for Quality, Novelty and Variety, and various authors use them as a basis for assessment, adapting the metrics to their implementations as needed. Some other authors have proposed modifications to Shah et al.’s metrics as well as improvements. These changes typically address specific implementation issues, and hence, their validity is limited to the experiments at hand. The authors of this paper believe that the detailed implementation of ideation metrics should not only work numerically, but should also be conceptually consistent. Upon discovering previously not discussed issues of these metrics, the authors present modifications to the Shah et al. Novelty and Variety metric implementations. These changes preserve the numerical and conceptual integrity of the original metric forms. Examples from current design engineering creativity experiments are included to better understand the proposed changes to the metrics.
