Optimisation of constant matrix multiplication operation hardware using a genetic algorithm
No full textThe efficient design of multiplierless implementations of constant matrix multipliers is challenged by the huge solution search spaces even for small scale problems. Previous approaches tend to use hill-climbing algorithms risking sub-optimal results. The three-stage algorithm proposed in this paper partitions the global constant matrix multiplier into its constituent dot products, and all possible solutions are derived for each dot product in the first two stages. The third stage leverages the effective search capability of genetic programming to search for global solutions created by combining dot product partial solutions. A bonus feature of the algorithm is that the modelling is amenable to hardware acceleration. Another bonus feature is a search space reduction early exit mechanism, made possible by the way the algorithm is modelled. Results show an improvement on state of the art algorithms with future potential for even greater savings
Alf Nilsen-Børsskog — The Author Chosen by the Language
No full textThis article discusses Alf Nilsen-Børsskog’s four-volume series of novels Elämän jatko [Continuation of life, 2004–2015], seen as the first literary works treating the Kven culture from a native perspective. Nilsen-Børsskog’s novels are analysed as constituting a “counterstory”, a term coined in the postcolonial cultural research paradigm to refer to self-representation. The Kvens have been considered a national minority in Norway since 1999, and their language has been an official minority language since 2005. The present author scrutinizes how Nilsen-Børsskog’s work differs from previous literary descriptions of this minority, often marked by the frequent use of stereotypes of the Kven language and culture

Towards an optimised VLSI design algorithm for the constant matrix multiplication problem
No full textThe efficient design of multiplierless implementations of constant matrix multipliers is challenged by the huge solution search spaces even for small scale problems. Previous approaches tend to use hill-climbing algorithms risking sub-optimal results. The proposed algorithm avoids this by exploring parallel solutions. The computational complexity is tackled by modelling the problem in a format amenable to genetic programming and hardware acceleration. Results show an improvement on state of the art algorithms with future potential for even greater savings
Non-annulation des fonctions L de groupes de classes au point central
No full textLet K=ℚ(-D) be an imaginary quadratic field, and denote by h its class number. It is shown that there is an absolute constant c>0 such that for sufficiently large D at least c·h∏ p∣D (1-p -1 ) of the h distinct L-functions L K (s,χ) do not vanish at the central point s=1/2
Johann Siegmund Valentin Popowitsch (Janez Žiga Valentin Popovič), Vocabula Austriaca et Stiriaca 1-2 (Frankfurt am Main 2004)
No full textThe Austrian dictionary composed by the Slovenian scho-lar Janez Žiga Valentin Popovič (1705-1774) in the third quarter of the 18th century was only published in 2004, and edited by Richard Reutner, who wrote an extensive introduction to it. The dictionary comprises many language-geographical data for the German language, excellent explanations and many comparisons with much information provided regarding Popovic's mother tongue. The author broad horizon is admirable, especially with regard to the German language area and the linguistic literature of that time.Avstrijski slovar, ki ga je v tretji četrtini 18. stoletja sestavil slovenski učenjak Janez Žiga Valentin Popovič (1705-1774), je izšel šele leta 2004 v uredništvu Richarda Reutnerja, kije k njemu napisal obsežen uvod. Slovar vsebuje mnogo jezikovnogeografskih podatkov za nemščino, odlične razlage in marsikaj primerjalnega, veliko pa se najde tudi v zvezi s Popovičevo materinščino. Občudovanja vredna je avtorjeva razgledanost predvsem po nemškem jezikoslovnem prostoru in po takratni jezikoslovni literaturi

MISAME
No full textRecording of Valentin Peiry's La Place. This work attempts to maintain a constant pulse while avoiding an excessive rhythmical stiffness. The composer used recordings of Gnaoua musicians and the surrounding noises as well as added elements of piano to create a coherent unity from a moving structure. The composer states that this piece was conceived like a set of mirrors; the form moves in a never-ending metamorphosis
Valentin N. Volóchinov: um filósofo da ciência da linguagem
No full textThis text address the work of Russian scholar Valentin N. Vološinov, author of the book Marxism and the Philosophy of Language. The objective is to demonstrate a set of characteristics that place Vološinov as a participant in the critique of science movement, which had its epicenter in Germany, between the years 1840 and 1900. To this end, in addition to a general reflection, which recovers the meaning of the term “criticism” most present in the academic environment of the time, this text considers two points of the much mentioned – and, apparently, somewhat misunderstood – opposition of the Russian thinker to the linguistics of Ferdinand de Saussure, as this linguistics is presented in the Course in General Linguistics. Finally, by way of provocation, this text outlines a few words about the proximity between the epistemological works of Valentin N. Vološinov and Wilhelm Dilthey.Este texto aborda la obra del estudioso ruso Valentin N. Voloshinov, autor de la obra Marxismo y filosofía del lenguaje.

Para ello, además de una reflexión general, que recupera el significado del término “crítica” más presente en el ambiente académico de la época, se consideran dos puntos de la tan mencionada –y, aparentemente, algo incomprendida– oposición del pensador ruso a la lingüística de Ferdinand de Saussure, tal como se presenta esta última en el curso de lingüística general. Al final, a modo de provocación, se esbozan algunas palabras sobre la proximidad entre las obras epistemológicas de Valentin N.

Money for Maria by Valentin Rasputin: translation and analysis
No full textO objetivo desta pesquisa é apresentar e analisar a primeira novela do autor russo soviético Valentin Raspútin, Dinheiro para Maria, publicada originalmente em 1967. A tradução em português do objeto de estudo é acompanhada de notas contextuais, tanto históricas quanto tradutórias. Para aprofundarmos mais o assunto, é apresentado um breve histórico da coletivização das terras na URSS e as condições sociais e artísticas que permitiram o florescimento da \"prosa de aldeia\". Além disso, são apontados alguns dados biográficos do autor e alguns aspectos de sua obra que o enquadram nesse movimento artístico. Finalmente, são analisadas as diversas camadas cronotópicas da novela e seu caráter dialógico.The aim of this research is to present and analyze the first novel by Soviet Russian author Valentin Rasputin, Money for Maria, originally published in 1967.
