Abstract:
This article engages with Marx’s and Baudrillard’s accounts of value. In so doing it puts forward a new concept of value: speculative value. If labour, use and exchange forms of value were central to Marx’s account of industrial capitalism, and symbolic and sign value were integral to Baudrillard’s observations of consumer-led capitalism, speculative value is an increasingly important component of financialized capitalism. With reference to financialization’s structural and cultural components, the article explains how speculative exchangers, rather than producers or consumers, now propel fina

Abstract:
The Split Share Structure Reform in China offers a unique opportunity to test whether the supply of tradable shares (i.e., float) has a significant impact on the degree of speculation. After firms completed the reform, their float increased by 31% on average, while turnover and trading volume also increased substantially. We use information from firms’ reform plan to derive an estimate of the price premium of tradable shares over non-tradable shares before the reform and find that, after controlling for differences in liquidity and profitability, the price premium is significantly related to p

Abstract:
ABSTRACT I investigate the possibility that recent price movements include significantly larger speculative components than those observed historically, where speculation is defined as the component of price that does not co-move with fundamentals. Specifically, at the aggregate level, price and accounting fundamentals co-move historically (1979–1993) but do not co-move recently (1994–2008). The lack of co-movement in recent periods is accompanied by a significant reduction in the positive association between ratios of accounting fundamentals-to-price with future market returns.

Testing this hypothesis, however, is challenging since the fundamental component of the oil price is unobservable.

This chapter attempts to define and clarify differences among paradigms, theories, and models in communication science according to a hierarchical conceptual structure or pyramidal flowchart. A paradigm is an overarching, speculative world-view that represents the value system of researchers and scholars who claim to follow it loyally. A theory is a conceptual framework that is amenable to indirect empirical evaluation through interrelated models. A model is a construct defined and evidenced by one or more dimensions that are amenable to empirical verification. Examples of such structure are provided from a general example, from Family Communication, from Communication Science in general, and more specifically from Relational Competence Theory (RCT). Models from RCT are then related to models from Communication Science, including also written communication. Writing allows to link models of RCT to specific workbooks or interactive practice exercises that permit evaluation of models in a more dynamic manner than inert psychological tests.

It argues that Cai’s family in China are experts in TCM gynecology, whose seventh generation Xiaosun Cai is a TCM master. Therefore, inheriting experience of Xiaosun is a critical business in the present TCM field. The authors demonstrate a novel system (named TCM-PMES) for preserving the diagnostic processes of veteran practitioners like Xiaosun in a personalized way. Based on the summarized Cai’s diagnostic template, a custom input system embracing the particular expressions of the specialist is set up in the platform. Unique and unfiltered experience of veteran practitioner is maintained as complete as possible. Various approaches on exploring relationships among TCM components and speculating syndrome types from clinical symptoms are also studied.

Full text
Abstract:
This chapter presents a critical study of Giovanni Pontano’s De bello Neapolitano, the historical account of the ‘conspiracy of the barons’ against Ferdinando of Aragon, king of Naples, and the war that followed the rebellion (1459–65). Pontano’s work is contextualized in the historical and cultural scenario of the Aragonese monarchy and in the humanist’s broader literary and political activity, as a historian, political and literary theorist, and royal secretary. In particular the De bello Neapolitano can be placed in the realm of ‘political historiography’, a genre that enjoyed considerable fortune in Italian Renaissance. Pontano’s work is inspired by different models, both classical and contemporary, and continues the tradition of Aragonese historiography (inaugurated by Valla, Facio, and Panormita). Moreover, the chapter examines the text from a political angle by investigating its connections with Pontano’s most significant political-theoretical treatises: De principe and De obedientia. The analysis illustrates how the humanist’s princely ideology and his theory of statecraft is framed by means of different works, through the interplay of historical narrative and theoretical speculation. In this productive literary interaction, the topic of internal political conflict occupies a prominent position and its treatment in Pontano’s works reveals a developing idea of political realism. Pontano provides a concrete model of an ideal state that is based on the principle of obedience and on the hierarchical relationship between different social components: the prince, the barons, and the common people, components that play a key function, both narrative and exemplary, also in the humanist’s historical work.

Abstract:
Ideas, concepts, perceptions, dreams cannot be seen by eyes or recorded instrumentally (with the help of photo or filming), they can only be the subject of speculation, which is purely individual. Therefore, a long range of images that can be qualified as cognitive graphics is used for their visualization. The most diverse visual means, such as letters of different alphabets and headsets, numbers, mathematical, chemical, biological, astrological, etc. signs and formulas, maps and cartoids, diagrams, schemes, tables, pictograms, etc. can be the components of cognitive graphics. Such components are included in the lettering text or generate extended cognitive-graphic texts that can duplicate (or be duplicated by) lettering texts, exist in unity with the lettering texts or autonomously. Collections of the latter make atlases of cognitive graphics. As an alternative to letter texts, cognitive graphics are the means of facilitating or even creating an opportunity for communication for those who are uncomfortable or inaccessible with letter texts (children, persons of an artistic and intuitive type, introverts, etc.). Cognitive graphics are optionally used in everyday communication, are used much wider in the education process at all levels, and are obligatory used in certain types of professional communication (mathematics, chemistry, geology, etc.). In the latter case, both hard-coded versions and the author’s idiostyles exist, although the most common are usual group patterns. Depending on the type of cognitive graphics, cognitive-graphic texts are created using a pen and pencil (pencils), drawing accessories, paints and brushes, special equipment (drawing apparatus, stereoscope, pinhole camera, printing equipment), or a computer. In the latter case, we are talking about computer cognitive graphics.

Full text
Abstract:
Belowground organisms are key components of the trophic structure and they mediate the dynamics of nutrients of all terrestrial ecosystems. The interactions among assemblages of belowground microorganisms and their consumers mediate the cycling of plant-limiting nutrients, influence aboveground plant productivity, affect the course of plant community development, and affect the dynamic stability of aboveground communities following natural and anthropogenic disturbances (Clarholm, 1985; Ingham et al., 1985; Laakso and Setälä, 1999; Naeem et al., 1994; Tilman et al., 1996; Wall and Moore, 1999). The influence of belowground organisms on the aboveground plant community is heightened in systems such as the shortgrass steppe (Blair et al., 2000), given the relatively high percentage of plant production that is diverted belowground through plant roots. Many of the human-induced changes that the shortgrass steppe has been subjected to during the past 150 years fall outside the scope of the natural variations in climate and grazing. This conflict between the natural history of the shortgrass steppe and the more recent human legacy forms the backdrop of this chapter. First we present a detailed description of the belowground food web for the native shortgrass steppe and present its structure in terms of the patterns of trophic interactions, the distribution of biomass, the flow of energy, and the strengths of interactions. Second, we explore how three disturbances—managed grazing, agricultural practices, and climate change (altered precipitation and temperature, and elevated CO2)—have altered the structure of the belowground community. We conclude with a synthesis of the common patterns that we observed in the grassland’s response to these disturbances, and speculate on their consequences. Aboveground plant parts provide from 20% to 40% cover with exposed soil between them (Lauenroth and Milchunas, 1991). Much of the aboveground production remains in place as standing dead, rather than falling to the soil surface as litter. The ratio of shoot production to root production is roughly 1:1, contrasting sharply with forests, where far more production is allocated aboveground (Jackson et al., 1996; Milchunas and Lauenroth, 1993, 2000). Hence, in the shortgrass steppe, plant roots provide the major input of carbon to soil. As such, plant roots are the focal point of biological activity in soils (Coleman et al., 1983).

<em>Abstract</em>.—Migratory fishes are common in freshwaters throughout the world and can fundamentally alter recipient ecosystems. We describe different types of fish migrations and consider their importance from the perspective of ecosystem subsidies—that is, landscape-scale flows of energy, materials, and organisms that are important in driving local food web and ecosystem dynamics. We distinguish between two general categories of subsidies, which we term here material subsidies and process subsidies. Material subsidies are the transfer of energy, nutrients, and other resources resulting in direct changes in resource pools within ecosystems. We posit that material subsidies occur under only a subset of life history strategies and ecological settings, and the potential for migratory fish to represent major material subsidies is greatest when (1) the biomass of migrants is high relative to recipient ecosystem size, (2) the availability of nutrients and energy is low in the recipient ecosystem (i.e., oligotrophic), and (3) there are effective mechanisms for both liberating nutrients and energy from migratory fishes and retaining those materials within the food web of the recipient ecosystem. Thus, anadromous semelparous Pacific salmon <em>Oncorhynchus </em>spp. with en masse programmed senescence in oligotrophic Pacific Northwest streams can be large material subsidies. In contrast, process subsidies arise from feeding or other activities of migratory species that directly affect process rates within recipient ecosystems. For example, the physical and chemical effects of grazing and sediment-feeding fishes such as prochilodontids, as well as seed dispersal by large-bodied frugivorous characins, represent potentially key process subsidies by migratory fishes in some of the great rivers of South America. We speculate that process subsidies are more widespread than material subsidies from migratory stream fishes because they are independent of the type of migration patterns, life history, and distance traveled. Nevertheless, the magnitude of process subsidies is likely to be greatest under a specific subset of ecological conditions, which can differ from those where material subsidies might be most important. In addition to migrant biomass, the potential for migratory fish to represent strong process subsidies is regulated by migrant interaction strength and the degree to which a migratory species is functionally unique in a particular ecological setting. Unlike material subsidies, which require high migrant biomass as conveyor belts of materials, migratory fishes can be crucial process subsidies, even when migrant biomass is low, if they are functionally unique and strong interactors. We provide specific examples of these different types of subsidies and outline key directions of research for furthering our understanding of the functional significance of migratory stream fishes. Our aim is to highlight the diversity of subsidies provided by migratory fishes in order to foster a more comprehensive perspective on fishes as essential components of riverine ecosystems.

Abstract:
Japan's low-interest rates made the country's currency the primary funding currency in carry trade speculative strategies. Investors' activity in carry trade strategies has an enormous impact on the foreign exchange market volatility. A large inflow of capital to countries with higher interest rates contributes to their currency appreciation, and, in turn, a large outflow of capital from countries with a low-interest rate leads to a significant depreciation of their currency. However, in times of crisis and high uncertainty in the financial markets, investors massively withdraw from the carry

Abstract:
The story of post-industrial urban decline in America is well known. Bustling cities fall victim to changing economic structures and globalization. Wealth moves out of city centers, leaving behind evacuated buildings and vacant lots where houses once stood and transforming vibrant neighborhoods into sparsely populated areas that lack the density necessary to sustain urban life. Municipalities deem abandoned buildings “blight” and assemble task forces to eradicate them. In response to this pressing urban reality, we have been developing a speculative approach to reusing buildings and materials

Abstract:
In the past decade, the second language acquisition (SLA) field has challenged the understanding of bi/multilingual speakers and even second language (L2) learners (Valdés, 2005). This multilingual reconception has brought the use of translingual practices to the forefront of the SLA discussion. Translanguaging is a new approach to language use, bilingual acquisition, and bilingual education that sees all acquired languages (or those being acquired) as components of one bi/multilingual repertoire (García & Wei, 2014). Discussions of specific pedagogical applications of translingualism

Abstract:
This paper seeks to introduce a novel approach in salvaging the urban realm through exploring ways in which design can extrapolate the use and the value of consistent industrial byproducts, mainly from the automobile industry. The research begins with a need to conserve materials and energy with a focus on adding value by design. In this paper, a speculative design work and comparative analysis have been conducted. The method begins with the analysis of automobile byproduct materials, observations of procurement of new material and analysis of proposed designs of automobile body manufacturing.

Abstract:
Due to their high operating temperature, there has been speculation that thermal radiation may play an important role in the overall heat transfer within the electrode and electrolyte layers of solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs). This paper presents a detailed characterization of the thermophysical and radiative properties of the composite materials, which are then used to define a simple 2-D model incorporating the heat transfer characteristics of the electrode and electrolyte layers of a typical planar SOFC. Subsequently, the importance of thermal radiation is assessed by comparing the temperatu

Abstract:
Machining of hard-to-cut materials to a high degree of accuracy and surface quality is one of the most critical operations when fabricating different state-of-the-art engineered components. Abrasive waterjet machining (AWJM) is one of the non-conventional technologies, which is increasingly gaining a reputation for machining hard-to-cut materials. Despite many phenomenological investigations, the dynamic characteristics of the abrasive waterjet and physical interactions with the machined surface have not been thoroughly investigated in the context of understanding the machining process.

Abstract:
Abstract Features are meaningful abstractions of geometry that engineers use to reason about components, products, and processes. For design activity, features are design primitives, serve as the basis for product representations, and can incorporate information relevant to life-cycle activities such as manufacturing. Research on feature-based design has matured to the point that results are being incorporated into commercial CAD systems. The intent here is to classify feature-based design literature to provide a solid historical basis for present research and to identify promising research di

Abstract:
Traditional transducer-based techniques for Non-Destructive Evaluation (NDE) are limited by fixed frequency-bandwidth for generation and sensing, and thus provide unsatisfactory resolution for certain types of material defects. Thermo-Acousto-Photonic NDE (TAP-NDE) is a proven alternative that is non-invasive and non-contact, and suited for real-time applications. This paper focuses on employing TAP-NDE to examine the presence of microcracks and fissures in multi-layered composites. Tests were performed on layered composite panels of specific epoxyresin composition and constant thickness to id
