Full textThe aim of these Master theses is to analyze the expression of Salon culture and continuity of this cultural process in interwar Kaunas. Interlaced lifestyle and creativity of interwar intellectuals determined the formation of lively and highbrowed atmosphere in the city. Communication of intellectuals in this cultural environment also determined the rise of Salon culture phenomenon. In this research culture and society compose one entire system and it is explored through expressed and fixed personal experiences, common public conventions, processes of arts. Therefore the culture of interwar Kaunas is considered not just as the one which kept essential classic Salon characteristics, but it is also a typical communication tradition of XX century’s society. The culture of Salons is defined as distinctive social communication form also as attesting process of ideological maturity. The continuance of Salons manifestation is recognized in later periods, after ending of Lithuanian interwar epoch. In interwar period as well as when statehood was lost, the manifestation of Salon culture enriched the city of Kaunas, formed traditions of intellectuals and became essential attribute of social life. This is a very important argument taking into consideration that culture of Salons is non – material part of Kaunas city history.

Full textPaveldo objektų apsauga visada buvo ir išlieka glaudžiai susijusi su šalies socialiniais, ekonominiais ir politiniais pokyčiais. Šie pokyčiai įtakoja paveldo saugojimo būdus ir metodiką bei sąlygoja paveldo objektų selekciją ir apsaugos prioritetus. Ypatingoje situacijoje atsiduria disonuojantis, brutalus, daugelyje Europos šalių jau įsisąmonintas ir įsisavintas, o Lietuvoje dar tik pradedamas pripažinti gynybinis XIX – XX a. sandūros paveldas. Disertacijos analizės pagrindas yra 1882–1915 m. pastatyti Kauno tvirtovės gynybiniai objektai, administraciniai pastatai, maldos namai, infrastruktūra ir kiti tvirtovės elementai, turėję įtakos Kauno miesto ir apylinkių kraštovaizdžio pokyčiams ir tolesnei miesto plėtrai. Kauno tvirtovė nagrinėta kaip įvairios paskirties objektų kompleksas, kur visi elementai buvo glaudžiai tarpusavyje susiję ir negalėjo funkcionuoti atskirai vieni nuo kitų. Darbe analizuotos dvi fortifikacijos paveldo kaitos proceso kryptys, vykusiosos nuo statybos pradžios iki šių dienų: pirmoji – Kauno tvirtovės komplekso bei atskirų jos komponentų vizualinis ryšys su aplinka; antroji – tvirtovės komplekso objektų ir naudotojų tarpusavio ryšys bei panaudos kaita. Dėmesys koncentruojamas į karinio komplekso atsiradimo ideologinį kontekstą bei socialinių, ekonominių, politinių veiksnių plėtotę jo statybos ir gynybos metu, kas tiesiogiai daro įtaką kokybiško pasakojimo kūrimui ir paveldo animavimui.

Full textHistoric architectural and urbanistic entirety of Laisvės avenue had been formed over three historic periods: government (1847-1918), interwar period (1918-1940) and Soviet times (1940-1990). Each of these periods is reflected by distinct urbanitics and architectural transformations shaping mixed visual environment of Laisvės avenue. Its uniqueness lies in the overall view of constant change. Therefore, such change should preserve not only unique urbanistic and architectural features of each era, but also the intangible heritage – the general meanings of street culture and spirit, as essential and relevant identifiers of this site. There are 19 separate and complex objects from Laisvės avenue included in the Register of Cultural Values. This makes less than 1⁄5 of all the buildings located in the avenue, which form an integral perimetrical development of both street parts. Thus, legally enforced values reflect only a part of values of Laisvės avenue, as a cultural treasure. Given that, the first part of this paper, with reference to the documents of modern heritage protection and comparing them with those of the heritage protection of the Republic of Lithuania, creates a broader assessment system, on the basis of which the buildings are evaluated in the urbanistic, façade, volume-spatial dimensions in pursuance of their identity, contextuality values, as well as artistic and rarity values of architecture. Upon the application of the given system on each architectural element... [to full text]

Nevertheless, cultural heritage in Lithuania has a feature in academical field to be self-centered so hardly ever usefull for wider sociocultural progress if we consider that tourism or old town vitality is based not on heritage management itself, but depends on traditionally perceived which are the best routes for tourists or traditional area of walking around. This issue claims that in so called network society the most important is to recognise the possibilities and threats for architectural heritage to become an actine participator of network progress. It is clarely seen, that internet technologies and communicational options is to be elimate a traditional urban space out of field of public interest.

Full textSUMMARY The seniors’ market is really the specific one (there is no stable definition of older people in the scientific literature. This market segment has different names: silver market, grey market, mature market. There is no unanimous opinion at what age people become senior. Usually, the seniors’ age is varying from fifty to sixty years). Seniors travel seasonally, elderly people can travel for a longer time than usually, they need more rest and they can afford a little bit more because of the savings. Seniors, who continue their work get higher income, have less expense and there is no need to take care of children. Moreover, all society gets older because of few reasons: a longer lifetime and particular habits of lifetime, a better healthcare, a medicine breakthrough, a different family model and the most important thing probably would be a decreasing birthrate. There are efforts to make senior tourism more popular in Lithuania too. Unfortunately, this market segment has not much of research attention. According to the World Tourism Organization (WTO), the stream of tourists from 2008 decreased in Europe. In Lithuania, this problem appeared in 2009 – 2010. It is predictive that in 2011 markets might recover and due to this tourism organizations in Lithuania need to know how to meet expectations of elderly people and prepare for this. Object of the paper – the development possibilities of the seniors’ tourism market. Object of the research – to find peculiarities of... [to full text]

Full textVisuotinai pripažįstama, kad esminis sveikatos rizikos veiksnys, susijęs su asmens gyvensena, yra mažas fizinis aktyvumas, kurio svarba žmogaus sveikatai yra įrodyta daugelyje mokslinių studijų. Jose pabrėžiama pozityvi aktyvios fizinės veiklos laisvalaikiu sąsaja su įvairiais sveikatos rodikliais (Kalėdienė ir kt., 1999; Domarkienė, 2000; Borodulin, 2006; Kallings, 2008; Klumbienė, 2008; Gill et al., 2010; Weiler et al., 2010). Nekelia abejonių faktas, kad dažnai deklaruojama sveikatos stiprinimo idėja yra tiesiogiai susijusi su gyvensenos ypatumais, kuriuos lemia tiek atskiro individo požiūris į savo sveikatą, tiek įvairūs išoriniai veiksniai, visų pirma gyvenimo sąlygos. Savaime suprantama, daugiausia dėmesio stiprinant žmonių sveikatą turėtų būti skiriama įvairiose sveikatos ugdymo (sveikatinimo) programose. Šių programų pagrindinis tikslas turėtų būti asmens elgesio keitimas panaudojant žiniasklaidos ir individualaus poveikio priemones (Van der Bij et al., 2002; Rise, 2004; Roux et al., 2008). Reiškiama nuomonė, kad supažindinus gyventojus su aktyvaus gyvenimo būdo principais, propaguojant ir skatinant pastovų jų realizavimą, tobulinant fizinę parengtį, pagerėtų ir žmonių gyvenimo kokybė (Aхвердова, Maгин, 2002; Taylor et al., 2002; Netz et al., 2005; Kallings, 2008; Miller, Miller, 2010).

Full textKaunas S. Darius and S. Girėnas airfield was the first Lithuanian aviation place and one of the oldest airfields in Europe. Lithuanian aviation development started in 1915 when Kaunas airfield was established. Kaunas S. Darius and S. Girėnas airfield flourished during the period of First Republic of Lithuania. The airfield began to expand: new buildings, aviation facilities appeared. Military aviation school and military aviation workshop were also established. In addition, at the same time the rudiments of civil aviation appeared in Kaunas airfield. They led to the establishment of the Lithuanian Aero Club (LAC). LAC organized plenty of festivals which brought aviation to public’s attention. Until the establishment of LAC, Lithuanian society has had a little interest in aviation and had no access to it. Lithuanian Aero Club (founded in 1927) took the action in Lithuanian society; it promoted civil and sport aviation. LAC organized aviation festivals in various Lithuanian cities and towns, promoted aviation in press, encouraged people to participate in a lottery (organized by LAC) and become members of the club. LAC activities were carried out not only in Lithuania but also abroad. Aviation festivals organized by Lithuanian Aero Club became an object of Lithuanian public attention and discussion. In the press constantly appeared articles where the main attention was given to: aviation celebrations, participants of the festivals, pilots, fluttering of acrobatic planes... [to full text]

Full textAn important aspect of development and research in the field of computer networking systems is evaluation. Through evaluation, performance and behavior of software and protocols over a network can be determined. A network emulator is one of several tools available to accomplish this.
In this thesis, the network emulator Dummynet is described, as well as its extension KauNet. KauNet extends Dummynet by introducing pattern-driven emulation. A pattern defines specific points at which to apply a certain computer network characteristic or behavior. The use of patterns allow an increased control and repeatability of an emulation. Repeating a test with an identical configuration and the same pattern will yield identical results.
The goal of the project was to add a new functionality to KauNet. The new functionality consists of a notification system capable of passing information from KauNet to external observers. By adding this new functionality, emulation statistics can be available for the observers immediately when occurring. Another example of information that can be forwarded, is simulated cross-layer information. For KauNet to know when and what information to send, a new type of pattern has been created, called trigger pattern. Trigger patterns behave similarly to the existing patterns, sharing the same structure and processing in KauNet. Through the use of trigger patterns, events may be raised at specific points. The notification system may then be used to pass the event information.
This thesis describes the evaluation, design and implementation of the trigger patterns and notification system in KauNet. Finally, it concludes with a verification of the new trigger functionality in a usage example.

Full textThe research for this thesis started off as a long academic essay that sought to review a 1970s biography of Kenneth Kaunda.1 In its original focus, the study aimed at evaluating the work on the narrations of Kenneth Kaunda&rsquo
s life from a theoretical and critical perspective. Specifically it sought to evaluate the biography for its theoretical and methodological approaches, its attention to issues of sources, archives, narrative and history. In addition, it aimed at locating the biography in relation to debates over biography and history in South Africa. As I began my research for the long essay, it soon became apparent that the biography of Kenneth Kaunda ended its narration in 1964 and yet it was published ten years later in 1974. By ending its &lsquo
coverage&rsquo
of the narrations of Kenneth Kaunda&rsquo
s life in 1964, it seemed obvious that its coverage was in many ways similar to his autobiography that was published in 1962.2 The ending of the biography&rsquo
s coverage in 1964 thus seemed rather abrupt as it precluded any representations of the subject in the post 1964 period in which he had become President of Zambia. Kenneth Kaunda was 
resident of Zambia for nearly three decades (1964-1991) having led the &lsquo
final&rsquo
phase of the nationalist struggle for Independence through the United National Independence Party (UNIP). Surely, I surmised, the meanings of Kenneth Kaunda&rsquo
s life as nationalist leader, as presented in most of his biography, would differ from those of him as 
President? Upon evaluating the biography, it seemed to be a largely chronological and descriptive rather analytical account of the subject&rsquo
s life. However, what made it profound to me was the ways in which it entwined the narratives of Kenneth Kaunda&rsquo
s life with the events, dates 1 The biography of Kenneth Kaunda by Fergus Macpherson was the subject of the long essay. See Fergus Macpherson, Kenneth Kaunda of Zambia: The Times and the Man (Lusaka: Oxford University Press, 1974). 2 Kenneth D. Kaunda, Zambia Shall Be Free: An Autobiography (London: Heinemann Educational Books 
td, 1962). and activities of the history of the Zambian nation. Some accounts inadvertently referred to this interconnection by referring to Kenneth Kaunda as the &lsquo
founder of Zambia&rsquo
. My 
 
exposure to various other debates around the production of history in the public domain such as through museums and national heritage sites or monuments prompted me to consider undertaking a study of the post-1964 historiography of Kenneth Kaunda. Rather than attempting to fill Kenneth Kaunda&rsquo
s post-1964 historiographical gap with a chronological account of his political life, I wanted to trace the narratives of Kenneth Kaunda&rsquo
s life in connection with the production of history in different domains in Zambia. This thesis thus aims at examining the political auto/biographical narrations of Kenneth Kaunda in relation to the production of nationalist history and national heritage in Zambia in the years following the country&rsquo
s Independence in 1964.4 One of the key questions that this study sought to engage with was: how did the &lsquo
representations&rsquo
of Kenneth Kaunda influence the ways in which Zambia&rsquo
s post-independence nationalist history and national heritage were produced? In seeking to provide an answer to the question, the study evaluated the auto/biography of Kenneth Kaunda itself, as well as how it reflects in the history texts utilised in Zambian schools and in history in the public domain through national heritage sites or monuments and museum exhibitions. The thesis will show that in Zambia, the auto/biography of Kenneth Kaunda has acquired significance through history as school lesson and as history in the public domain, through the production of national heritage sites and museum exhibitions.

Full textIn Lithuania there are established amelioration systems, hydraulic engineering equipment, operating roads established long ago. Most part of drainage and cultivation technique works were carried out in 1960 – 1995. Most of them are already not worn out, don‘t correspond with modern requirements. So at present when the draining and tilling of new lands in our country is nearly not planned, the works of reconstruction and improvement of drainage systems will have to be performed. Part of the water management equipment will be returned to the owners. In 1998 when it became obvious that the state of the drainage systems differs immensely from the situation indicated in the accountancy operative, but insufficiently detailed evaluation of these systems was performed. So in 2000 a more exact and minute inventorying of the state of drainage systems was carried out. The aim of the paper is to analyse the possible prospects of village water management system reorganization. Tasks of the investigation: 1. To analyse the volumes of the amelioration works and sources of financing of interwar Lithuania. 2. To establish the tendencies of the change of the building and reconstruction of amelioration equipment. 3. To compute the annual wear norm of amelioration equipment. 4.

Full textWe mustn‘t forget our traditions. The birth of the mask is related to the pagan rituals. However, nowadays the mask can be found only in the plays of Shrovetide. The existance of the mask embodies all the periods of theatre and puppet plays. A school is a place where the mask could be brought to life again and motivate pupils to search, descover, create and grow spiritually. Issue.

So, the question is how to use a mask for educational purposes that would make pupils close to the cultural heritage. Aim. To analyse the features of the use of the mask in the school plays of teenagers. The objections are closely related to the principal aim of the work. I have made a research at some basic schools of Vilnius. The tests showed that pupils get acquainted with the use of the mask at the early age. However, they still rarely use the masks.

The research shows that teachers are experienced and have a wide knowledge of the masks. They can help pupils to realize that the mask is a perfect way to communicate, become more self-confident, stimulate and release one‘s creativity. In conclusion... [to full text]
