Abstract:
This article provides an update of a lighthouse heritage experiential education project conducted by the Run Run Shaw Library, City University of Hong Kong. This project initiative aims to encourage students to conduct research by leveraging digital technology and archival collections, and hence connect themselves with the communities. The research team followed the six-step ‘forensic investigation' to continue its mission of 3D restoration of the lost Xiyu Pagoda Lighthouse in Xiyu Island, Penghu, Taiwan. A new line of inquiry regarding the economic behaviour of the pagoda lighthouse was also extended during the course of clarifying the obscured text of the evidence collected. Beyond demonstrating how technology and humanities are intertwined, the aim of this article is to illustrate how librarians may actively disseminate knowledge through connecting students with archival collections.

Abstract:
This study analyses financial liberalisation in Trinidad and Tobago within the context of the McKinnon–Shaw model. The broad objective of this article is to empirically investigate the validity of both the McKinnon complementarity hypothesis and the Shaw debt intermediation model in relation to Trinidad and Tobago. These two models purport that persuasive government intervention and involvement in the financial system through the regulatory and supervisory network, particularly in controlling interest rates and allocation of credit, tend to distort financial markets. Therefore, by the removal of administrative controls on the assets portfolio and pricing behaviour of financial institutions, interest rates will rise to levels that will result not only in increased savings and loanable funds but also in a more efficient allocation of these funds, providing, in turn, stimuli for economic growth. Utilising the cointegration approach, the empirical analysis is conducted with annual data from 1970 to 2001. The empirical results support both the McKinnon complementarity hypothesis and the Shaw debt intermediation hypothesis in the long run. That is to say, real interest rates have a significant influence on savings in the long run. However, the results indicate that the real interest rate plays an insignificant role in the Error Correction Model in the short run for both the McKinnon and Shaw theories. Hence, this article provides empirical validity for the McKinnon–Shaw financial liberalisation theory in Trinidad and Tobago over the long run. Thus policy makers should take explicit account of this result in the formulation of financial policy. The sustainability of this policy, however, depends on the appropriateness of other fiscal, monetary incomes and exchange rate policies.

Abstract:
Polytypic programming is a way of defining type-indexed operations, such as map, fold and zip, based on type information. Run-time polytypic programming allows that type information to be dynamically computed – this support is essential in modern programming languages that support separate compilation, first-class type abstraction, or polymorphic recursion. However, in previous work we defined run-time polytypic programming with a type-passing semantics. Although it is natural to define polytypic programs as operating over first-class types, such a semantics suffers from a number of drawbacks. This paper describes how to recast that work in a type-erasure semantics, where terms represent type information in a safe manner. The resulting language is simple and easy to implement – we present a prototype implementation of the necessary machinery as a small Haskell library.

Abstract:
This paper analyzes the determinants of domestic private investment in Pakistan using long time series data for the period 1982 to 2012. The conventional variable such as output is not significant in explaining the domestic private investment but the interest rate has significant negative effect on private investment in the long run. The results of the study confirm the validity of crowding in hypothesis and debt overhang hypothesis for Pakistan. This study did not find any support for Mackinnon-Shaw hypothesis. The improvement in law and order condition and existence of democratic political regime in the country has significant positive effect on domestic private investment in the long run. The focus on non-conventional variables could restore investors’ confidence and may result in the recovery of domestic private investment in the country.

Abstract:
“Learning on the Run” refers to the educational experiences of the primary school children travelling along the agricultural show ‘circuits’ in coastal and western Queensland. This thesis examines those educational experiences by drawing on the voices of the show children, their parents, their home tutors and their teachers from the Brisbane School of Distance Education, which from 1989 to 1999 implemented a specialised program of Traveller education for these children (in 2000 a separate school was established for them). The thesis focusses on the interplay among marginalisation, resistance and transformation in the spaces of the show people’s itinerancy. It deploys Michel de Certeau’s (1984, 1986) concept of ‘tactics of consumption’ and Mikhail Bakhtin’s (1986a) notions of ‘outsiddness’ and ‘creative understanding’ to interrogate the show people’s engagement with their absence of place, the construction of their otherness and forms of seemingly unproblematic knowledge about their schooling. Data gathering techniques included semi-structured interviews with forty-two people between 1992 and 2000 in seven sites in Queensland - Mackay, Bundaberg (over two years), Emerald, Brisbane, Rockhampton and Yeppoon - and document collection. The thesis’s major finding is that the show people’s resistance and transformation of their marginalising experiences have enabled them to initiate and implement a significant counternarrative to the traditional narrative (and associated stereotypes) attending their itinerancy. This counternarrative has underpinned a fundamental change in their schooling provision, from a structure that worked to marginalise and disempower them to a specialised form of Traveller education. This change contributes crucially to understanding and theorising the spaces of itinerancy, and highlights the broader significance of the Queensland show people’s “learning on the run”.

Abstract:
Modern Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs) can implement entire run-time reconfigurable systems using partial reconfiguration. Module-based run-time reconfiguration permits the construction of custom applications at run-time using pre-compiled Intellectual Property (IP) from a module library. The need for both flexible module placement and custom inter-module communication is mostly ignored by existing modular run-time reconfiguration approaches and few existing tool flows for module generation address the need for automation. This thesis introduces an automated compile-time tool flow for generating dynamic modules that allow flexible run-time placement and communication synthesis.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis contains analysis of currently available Objective-C run-time libraries (GCC, Apple and Étoilé run-times), their prerequisites and dependencies on the particular platform and operating system. The result of the analysis is a design of a modular run-time library that allows dynamic configuration of each component for the particular need (e.g. disabling run-time locks in a single-threaded environment). The resulting design can also be easily ported to other atypical platforms (e.g. kernel, or an experimental OS) and extended feature-wise (e.g. adding support for Objective-C categories, or associated objects). A prototype implementation of such a modular run-time for Objective-C also is included.

Abstract:
Abstract From engineering analysis and topology optimization to generative design and machine learning, many modern computational design approaches require either large amounts of data or a method to generate that data. This paper addresses key issues with automatically generating such data through automating the construction of Finite Element Method (FEM) simulations from Dirichlet boundary conditions. Most past work on automating FEM assumes prior knowledge of the physics to be run or is limited to a small number of governing equations. In contrast, we propose three improvements to current methods of automating the FEM: (1) completeness labels that guarantee viability of a simulation under specific conditions, (2) type-based labels for solution fields that robustly generate and identify solution fields, and (3) type-based labels for variational forms of governing equations that map the three components of a simulation set — specifically, boundary conditions, solution fields, and a variational form — to each other to form a viable FEM simulation. We implement these improvements using the FEniCS library as an example case. We show that our improvements increase the percent of viable simulations that are run automatically from a given list of boundary conditions. This paper’s procedures ultimately allow for the automatic — i.e., fully computer-controlled — construction of FEM multi-physics simulations and data collection required to run data-driven models of physics phenomena or automate the exploration of topology optimization under many physics.

Abstract:
Real-Time simulation and Hardware-in-the-Loop (HIL) testing are increasingly adopted by industry for the development and validation of complex systems. This paper presents the real-time modeling and power management of a Vehicle-Grid Integration (VGI) system. The VGI system consists of six AC level 2 Plug-in Electric Vehicle (PEV) charging stations, a Photovoltaics (PV) farm, a commercial building load, and a switch connecting to 240V single phase power grid. PEV charging activities follow the SAE J1772 standard. An energy management algorithm is designed for the VGI system to coordinate the PEV charging with the building load and PV renewable generation. The coordination maintains the power consumption of the VGI system below utility’s demand charge pricing threshold. A real-time power system simulator, Opal-RT, is used in this study. The OPAL-RT system allows users to build detailed power system models using Matlab Simulink/SimPowerSystems and RT-LAB library, and run the models in real-time. The model-based approach enables the integration of power system models seamlessly with the power management algorithm and power electronics-level controllers. The simulation results show that the VGI model emulates the real system well and the coordinated PEV charging helps to balance the power generation and consumption of the VGI system to meet power management requirement.

Abstract:
Entrepreneurship is growing as a cross- and inter-disciplinary area of focus for higher education. From patent and tech transfer offices to business, science, and engineering programs, the demand for entrepreneurship resources and support delivered via libraries is booming. Building library collections to help patrons design, launch, and run successful businesses is challenging: Market research and private equity/venture capital resources arrive at premium prices. Increasingly, these resources must interoperate with software used to clean, analyze, and visualize data. This data is often difficult to find and deploy. Restrictive, corporate-style licenses reflect that new vendors are not yet acclimated to the academic market’s access requirements and licensing constraints. This paper will share a framework for how to understand entrepreneurship in higher education and explain the types of information commonly requested by users. Such information often exists in disciplinary silos, emphasizing the importance of collaborative collection development across subject lines. The authors will explore the unique challenges to building collections that serve patrons developing new ventures. This includes collaborating with external stakeholders to fund resources that have not been traditionally purchased by libraries. Strategies for licensing data and other e-resources in this space will be discussed, including the central complications arising from universities as incubators for for-profit startups. The authors will suggest best practices for building relationships with stakeholders, developing relevant collections and services, and marketing these resources to support communities.

Abstract:
Public involvement or community relations activities have become essential to environmental remediation projects. The key to success for these programs is to identify community and stakeholder concerns and needs early on and address them through an effective outreach program that can result in a win-win outcome for those involved. A three-phase community outreach approach is used to identify and develop proactive community outreach strategies and programs. In the first phase, a community assessment is performed to obtain the input needed to develop an effective community outreach plan. The second phase consists of providing project information and building community involvement at the beginning of site remediation. The third phase consists of continuing and dynamic two-way communication activities during site remediation, based on knowledge gathered and rapport built during Phases 1 and 2. This paper presents this three-phase approach and discusses in more detail how the information obtained from the community assessment can be transformed into a successful community involvement strategy. This paper illustrates this approach with a hypothetical military base example, based on actual projects. The Shaw Group Inc. subsidiary, Shaw Environmental & Infrastructure, Inc. (Shaw), develops a base-wide community involvement plan and begins its implementation in support of remediation activities. The community involvement plan is typically a multi-faceted approach designed to identify the most effective methods to share information between project staff and base stakeholders and to foster community involvement in a remediation project. Not only is public involvement in remediation programs mandated by federal laws, but regulators, elected officials, and military entities have learned through past experiences that, in the long run, it is better on all fronts to inform and include community stakeholders early in and throughout the remediation process. Early information and involvement educates communities about environmental impacts and provides them with opportunities to have input to remediation activities regarding land that may be turned over to the community either in the short- or long-term future.

Abstract:
The University of Michigan Press, with support from the Mellon Foundation, asked John Lavender, of Lavender Consulting, to conduct a review of the American Council of Learned Societies (ACLS) Humanities E-Book collection (HEB) following its launch on Michigan’s new Fulcrum platform. ACLS-HEB is an online collection of over 5,400 high-quality humanities books from over 100 publishers. Now that the market for e-books has matured, part of the review was a comparative study of e-book platforms run by publishers, university presses and e-book vendors; 17 platforms were selected. The review looked at the key features offered by each platform, how they handled searching, content delivery, displaying results, ability to view and download and other key features, there was no attempt to judge the value of the content. Following this review, Michigan Press felt that it would be beneficial to share the results with the wider community. As well as being of interest to publishers, the review will also be relevant for librarians making purchasing decisions and vendors selling e-book services. In addition to synthesizing the results of the e-book platform review, this paper presents a librarian’s perspectives on e-book assessment criteria. Courtney McAllister, Electronic Resources Librarian at Yale University’s Law Library, describes the importance of attributes such as accessibility compliance, library branding, and metadata. Library collections are shaped by a plethora of concerns and criteria. This paper seeks to outline some key elements to consider as part of e-book platform decision-making.
