IBM 5150 computer
No full textIBM’s first personal computer arrived nearly 10 years after others companies, but instantly legitimized the market. IBM introduced its PC in 1981. IBM equipped the model 5150 with a cassette port for connecting a cassette drive. The first IBM PC ran on a 4.77 MHz Intel 8088 microprocessor. The PC came equipped with 16 kilobytes of memory, expandable to 256k. The PC came with one or two 160k floppy disk drives and an optional color monitor. The price tag started at 4,000 (about €3,400) today

Gravely Disabled: The Vestigial Prong of 5150 Designations
Get PDFEffective July 1, 1972, California’s Lanterman-Petris-Short Act (“LPS Act”) set the precedent for modern mental health commitment procedures in the U.S. named after its authors, State Assemblyman Frank Lanterman and State Senators Nicholas C. Petris and Alan Short, the LPS Act sought to “end the inappropriate, indefinite, and involuntary commitment of persons with mental health disorder”; to “provide prompt evaluation and treatment of persons with mental health disorders or impaired by chronic alcoholism”; and to “guarantee and protect public safety.” Despite citing to these articles of intent, the LPS Act violates its own legislative intent through its inclusion of “gravely disabled” in its enforcement of involuntary psychiatric hold designations (also known as “5150 designations”). First, police officers are not required to make a medical diagnosis of a mental health disorder at the time of a 5150 designation; the broad scope of “gravely disabled” increases the number of persons police officers can involuntarily transport, increasing the likelihood of inappropriate and involuntary commitment of persons with mental health disorders. Second, the broad scope of “gravely disabled” produces an onslaught of 5150-designated persons (whether improperly designated or not) being sent to LPS-designated hospitals with limited resources (e.g., lack of beds and psychiatric staff); this results in patients waiting for an inordinate amount of time for a psychiatric evaluation and/or a hospital bed. Third, it is unclear whether the LPS Act sought to provide protection for the mentally ill or to provide protection from the mentally ill in its guarantee of protecting “public safety”; the inclusion of “gravely disabled” in 5150 designations indicates that the LPS Act provided the public with a duplicitous means of removing the mentally ill, impoverished, and houseless from the streets under the guise of “public safety.” This Paper suggests the following to help remedy the effects of implementing the broadly defined “gravely disabled” in 5150 designations: (1) Remove “gravely disabled” from the 5150 criteria; (2) integrate the community with mental health advocacy efforts by creating outreach and education programs; and (3) implement a client-centric approach to interacting with persons with mental health disorders through restorative policing and the establishment of a restorative court
Peavey 5150 : The Function and Aesthetics of an Amplifier
No full textThis thesis examines the influence of the Peavey 5150 amplifier on thedevelopment of metal music, with a focus on its technical features, culturalsignificance, and sonic impact. Using a phenomenological framework, thestudy analyzes subjective experiences of producers, musicians, andacademics to understand the Peavey 5150. Data was collected throughsemi-structured interviews, allowing for an in-depth exploration of how thispiece of equipment has influenced the genre’s sound from the 1990sonwards.The study reveals that the amplifier's popularity stems from its uniquetechnical affordances, including its high gain, tight low-end response, andversatility. While Eddie Van Halen’s endorsement initially played a role in itsvisibility, the amplifier’s sonic qualities ultimately made it indispensable formetal musicians. The amplifier became a tool that facilitated innovation,enabling metal bands to achieve a distinct and powerful sound that resonatedwith the genre’s aesthetics.Findings also highlight how users often modify the Peavey 5150 throughcombinations with specific cabinets, overdrive pedals, and noise gates tofurther tailor its sound. The amplifier’s role in the creative process, coupledwith its cultural resonance, has solidified its reputation as a legitimate andtrend-setting piece of equipment.This thesis contributes to the broader understanding of music technology'srole in shaping genre aesthetics, providing insights into how specific toolsachieve cult status. The analysis underscores the dynamic relationshipbetween technology, user practices, and cultural legitimacy in metal musicproduction
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
