Kritik Moral dalam Antologi Puisi Potret Pembangunan Karya W.S. Rendra
No full textPoetry that is enough to provide moral criticisms, one of which is the stroke poems of W.S. Rendra\u27s pen. His poems were enough to give a scathing critique of his time and to the end of his life. W.S. Rendra in writing his poems dared to launch a considerable criticism of the risk. The purpose of this research is so that the resulting literary works do not deviate from things that endanger the existence of the author. The method used in this study is the qualitative method. Data analysis will be done using the analysis of the contents of the document (content analysis document) namely by recording the important content expressed in the document or archive, but also its implied meaning. That W.S. Rendra\u27s poems containing the value of moral criticism include poems titled poor people, nursery rhymes, spy rhymes, corn rhymes, rhymes of an old man under a tree, and rhymes of girls and masters
Architectures for a space-based information network with shared on-orbit processing
No full textThesis (Ph. D.)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Engineering Systems Division, 2005.This electronic version was submitted by the student author. The certified thesis is available in the Institute Archives and Special Collections.Includes bibliographical references (p. 335-343).This dissertation provides a top level assessment of technology design choices for the architecture of a space-based information network with shared on-orbit processing. Networking is an efficient method of sharing communications and lowering the cost of communications, providing better interoperability and data integration for multiple satellites. The current space communications architecture sets a critical limitation on the collection of raw data sent to the ground. By introducing powerful space-borne processing, compression of raw data can alleviate the need for expensive and expansive downlinks. Moreover, distribution of processed data directly from space sensors to the end-users may be more easily realized. A space-based information network backbone can act as the transport network for mission satellites as well as enable the concept of decoupled, shared, and perhaps distributed space-borne processing for space-based assets. Optical crosslinks are the enabling technology for creating a cost-effective network capable of supporting high data rates. In this dissertation, the space-based network backbone is designed to meet a number of mission requirements by optimizing over constellation topologies under different traffic models. With high network capacity availability, space-borne processing can be accessible by any mission satellite attached to the network. Space-borne processing capabilities can be enhanced with commercial processors that are tolerant of radiation and replenished periodically (as frequently as every two years).(cont.) Additionally, innovative ways of using a space-based information network can revolutionize satellite communications and space missions. Applications include distributed computing in space, interoperable space communications, multiplatform distributed satellite communications, coherent distributed space sensing, multisensor data fusion, and restoration of disconnected global terrestrial networks after a disaster. Lastly, the consolidation of all the different communications assets into a horizontally integrated space-based network infrastructure calls for a space-based network backbone to be designed with a generic nature. A coherent infrastructure can satisfy the goals of interoperability, flexibility, scalability, and allows the system to be evolutionary. This transformational vision of a generic space-based information network allows for growth to accommodate civilian demands, lowers the price of entry for the commercial sector, and makes way for innovation to enhance and provide additional value to military systems.by Serena Chan.Ph.D

No full textThe problems raised relate to literary criticism in the poem W.S. Rendra. Poetry is one of the right literature to describe the mind of the author, concerning the social life of the community with its various inequalities, as well as one of the media to convey criticism to individuals and groups. The purpose of this research is to keep literary works away from deviant things that endanger the existence of the author. The method used in this study is qualitative method. The data analysis techniques the authors used in this study are : 1)Read Poetry by W.S. Rendra carefully. 2) then write the value of social criticism contained in the poem. 3) Mark supporting sentences containing social criticism. 4) Analyze social criticism based on data obtained. Social criticism contained in the poem by W.S. Rendra entitled Sajak Orang Miskin, Sajak Joki Tobing untuk Widuri, Sajak Seonggok Jagung, Sajak Pertemuan Mahasiswa, and Sajak Sebatang Lisong contains social criticisms that include the related social life faced by society, the social life gaps experienced by students, and the social lives of the rich and poor people
Multicolor emissive carbon dot with solvatochromic behavior across the entire visible spectrum
No full textCarbon dots (CDs) are a new class in carbonaceous family and have instigated remarkable research interests over the past decade both from fundamental and technological point of view due to its astonishing photoluminescence (PL) property, though the underlying PL mechanisms for CD are strongly disputed. Herein, we have synthesized nitrogen functionalized CDs (N-CDs) utilizing a facile and onestep hydrothermal approach. The synthesized CDs exhibit excellent solubility in a series of organic solvents and we have extensively investigated the CD-solvent interactions to understand the solvatochromic behavior of CDs which have hardly been studied. Our CDs show excitation wavelength and solvent dependent PL across nearly the entire visible spectrum without compromising the PL quantum yield (CD shows high quantum yield for both blue and red region in some selected solvents). The origin and spectral shift of PL property in different solvents are also thoroughly studied. These observations suggest that the hydrogen bonding between N-CDs and protic solvents is the primary driving force in controlling the PL in the system whereas both dipolar interaction and hydrogen bond acceptance basicity (beta) of aprotic. solvents are to be counted for the irregular PL behavior of CDs. Interestingly, the CD-polymer solutions also provide better quantum yield compare to the bare CD which suggests that by monitoring the interaction between CD and polymer in different solvents we can tune the PL property of CD which can find potential applications in diverse fields.

Multiple access protocols for multichannel communication systems
No full textThesis (M.Eng.)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Dept. of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science, 2000.Includes bibliographical references (leaves 108-111).System architecture design, evaluation, and optimization are key issues to developing communication systems that meet the requirements of today and expectations of the future. In this thesis, we introduce the concept of multiple access communication and the need to use efficient transmission techniques to expand both present and future wireless communication networks. We will study two areas regarding multiple access on multichannel communication systems. First, we describe fundamental multiplexing techniques that we can build upon and investigate the performance of different candidate architectures for the transmission of messages from bursty sources on multiple channels. We will consider traditional protocols such as Time Division Multiple Access (TDMA) and Slotted ALOHA (S-ALOHA) alongside a channelized architecture, which is based on the idea of multiplexing by dividing total transmission capacity into a fixed number of frequency channels. We develop mathematical models that describe the overall delay for sending large messages of a fixed length arriving from bursty sources and analyze their performances. We will make real-world parameter assumptions in the context of wireless networks and analyze the performance to develop intuition about the effectiveness of the different architectures. Second, we will investigate channel capacity allocation among mixed traffic, i.e., multiple classes of users. We will consider a first-come first-serve (FCFS) access strategy, a non-preemptive priority scheme, a preemptive resume priority scheme, and several channel capacity allocation schemes. We develop models that describe the overall delay for sending messages and analyze their performance. Our focus will concentrate on two classes of users. This scenario is typical of classes of users with small and large messages to transmit. present quantitative results by making real-world parameter assumptions in the context of wireless networks and analyze the performance to develop intuition about the effectiveness of each architecture.by Serena Chan.M.Eng
