Ayesha Hameed is a Lecturer in Visual Cultures at Goldsmiths, University of London in London, UK. Since 2014 Hameed’s multi-chapter project 'Black Atlantis' has looked at the Black Atlantic and its afterlives in contemporary illegalized migration at sea, in oceanic environments, through Afrofuturistic dancefloors and soundsystems and in outer space. Through videos, audio essays and performance lectures, she examines how to think through sound, image, water, violence and history as elements of an active archive; and time travel as an historical method. Recent exhibitions include Liverpool Biennale (2021), Gothenburg Biennale (2019), Lubumbashi Biennale (2019) and Dakar Biennale (2018). She is co-editor of Futures and Fictions (Repeater 2017) and co-author of Visual Cultures as Time Travel(Sternberg/MIT forthcoming 2021). She is currently Co-Programme Leader of the PhD in Visual Cultures at Goldsmiths University of London

Ayesha Unbound: The Construction of Female Power through Male Narrative in H. Rider Haggard’s She
No full textThis study focuses on the figure of Ayesha, the immortal Queen of Henry Ridder Haggard’s She: A History of Adventure, to configure her authority as an echo of the New Woman, the proto-feminist figure of the early twentieth century. Such relation is partlyharmed, however, by the fact that she was conceived by a male author and presented through a male narrator. In that regard, the text analyses how Holly, the narrator, is torn between utter devotion and fear, leading him to vainly attempt to omit Ayesha and other female figures from the narrative. Within this tension, the present work discusses the figure of Ayesha also in relation to nineteenth-century tropes and female stock characters. As a conclusion, we will be able to see how significant is to analyse female characters from a great variety of sources, not only from women’s writings
Ayesha Dean’s Bravery In Seville: Fearless as a Path to Maturity
No full textThis research analyzes the psychoanalytic characterization that focuses on the decisions made by Ayesha Dean when handling cases in Melati Lum's novel Ayesha Dean and the Seville Secret (2019). This study uses a descriptive qualitative method and applies Sigmund Freud's psychoanalysis theory (1923), which covers the id, ego, and superego. This study finds how Ayesha Dean copes and makes quick decisions while navigating as a detective handling a major case. This research highlights three main points, namely the unconscious desire (id), rational actions (ego), and how morality and conscience work (superego). The author concludes that the actions taken by the main character cannot be separated from the role of the people around her and her strong faith in God. Ayesha's intelligence and courage support how her character is developed through each case she solves. The author hopes that future research will provide a more in-depth analysis and explore more about the character of Muslim girls who have extraordinary abilities in solving these criminal cases
Analyzing student learning trajectories in an introductory programming MOOC
No full textThis electronic version was submitted by the student author. The certified thesis is available in the Institute Archives and Special Collections.Thesis: M. Eng., Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science, 2019Cataloged from student-submitted PDF version of thesis.Includes bibliographical references (pages 73-75).Understanding student learning and behavior in Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs) can help us make online learning more beneficial for students. We investigate student learning trajectories on the individual problem level in an MITx MOOC teaching introductory programming in Python, considering simple features of the student and problem as well as more complex keyword occurrence trajectory features associated with student code submissions. Since code is so problem-specific, we develop gold standard solutions for comparison. Anecdotal observations on individual student trajectories reveal distinct behaviors which may correlate with prior experience level. We build models to correlate these trajectories with student characteristics and behaviors of interest, specifically prior experience level and video engagement. Generative modeling allows us to probe the space of submitted solutions and trajectories and explore these correlations.by Ayesha R. Bajwa.M. Eng.M.Eng.

Ayesha Bint Shati’s Seerah Writing; A critical review
No full textThe biography of the Prophet ﷺ is a topic on which a lot has been written from the first century of Hijra until today, a lot is being written and a lot will be written. This title has religious, academic, historical and contemporary utility, so Muslim scholars have written on this topic in every era. Men as well as women have moved their pen to express their devotion and love. From ancient to modern times, women have contributed to writing on this subject. Although their number is less as compared to men, but in modern times this number is increasing. Apart from regular books, theses at M.A., M. Phil and Ph. D level are being written in various public and private universities. In this regard, Arabic and English languages come after Urdu. A prominent name among women Sirah writers in Arabic is Ayesha Bint Shati from Egypt (died: 1998 AD). She has written one book on Sirat Al-Nabi in excellent literary style. In this article a critical review of his Sirah wirting is being presented. In the beginning, the personal details of the author are described. Then the introduction of the books compiled on Sirat Al-Nabi is listed and after that the style of his Sirah writing and the subtle points found in it are listed. Finally, the Conclusions and recommendations of the research are described
Mobile application and data visualization for Sensei : sensing educational interaction in Montessori classrooms
No full textThesis: M. Eng., Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science, 2016.This electronic version was submitted by the student author. The certified thesis is available in the Institute Archives and Special Collections.Cataloged from student-submitted PDF version of thesis.Includes bibliographical references (pages 67-70).Understanding early childhood development can help teachers individualize their methods to facilitate growth in children. The Montessori educational approach emphasizes independence and allows children to guide their own learning. Given this style of learning, a crucial part of this kind of education is observation of the students, so teachers can assist individuals and help address specific developmental needs. Sensei aims to assist this observation through a dynamic range-based sensor network that detects proximity. These sensors are placed on the children's shoes, on lessons, and around the classroom. I developed the mobile application and the visualization dashboard for the Sensei system. Teachers can maintain the sensor deployment in their classroom through a mobile application. This allows teachers to start the sensors in their classroom at the beginning of each day. They can also collect data from the sensors at the end of the day and view an initial graph of the collected data, showing the time they spent with each child. With this unique data set, we also provide detailed visualizations to teachers so they can determine who children are spending their time with, what lessons they are spending time with, and what areas of their classroom are most active. With this data, teachers can, for example, determine the right time to introduce a child to a new lesson or re-arrange their classroom to facilitate learning. These visualizations are easily accessible for teachers in a web application. Sensei helps discover insights for teachers that would have otherwise been lost. This system can help provide a deeper understanding of early childhood development for teachers, educators, and researchers.by Ayesha Bose.M. Eng

Performance evaluation of the cache and forward link layer protocol in multihop wireless subnetworks
No full textCache aNd Forward (CNF) is a clean-slate protocol architecture for content delivery services in the future Internet. CNF is based on the concept of store-and-forward routers with large storage, providing for opportunistic delivery to occasionally disconnected mobile users and for in-network caching of content. This thesis presents the design and evaluation of a reliable link layer protocol for CNF in context of a multi-hop wireless access network scenario. The design aims to deliver files efficiently on a hop-by-hop basis as opposed to an end-to-end approach employed by TCP/IP. CNF leverages in-network storage to store an entire file before forwarding the file to the next node. If a next hop is not currently available or has low transmission quality, files may be stored at each CNF router along the path towards the destination. In addition to the link layer protocol, end-to-end transport in CNF involves packet scheduling and routing at each network node based on cross-layer observation of link speed, MAC congestion, path length, etc. An ns-2 simulation model has been developed for a multi-hop 802.11 access network with CNF routers and a reliable link layer protocol. Baseline results for first-come-first-serve (FCFS) scheduling and shortest path routing show significant capacity gains for CNF relative to TCP for a variety of network topologies and channel models. For example, for a 49 node network with a grid topology, maximum achievable throughput with CNF was found to be 12.5 Mbps as compared to 3.9 Mbps for TCP for a scenario in which the radio links experience short-term outages with a 5% duty cycle. Preliminary results showing the value of simple cross-layer scheduling in CNF are also given in the conclusion.M.S.Includes bibliographical references (p. 48-49)
