Authorisation in Grid Computing
No full textThis paper briefly surveys how authorisation in Grid computing has evolved during the last few years, and presents the latest developments in which Grid applications can utilise a policy controlled authorisation infrastructure to make decisions about which users are allowed to perform which actions on which Grid resources. The paper describes the Global Grid Forum SAML interface for connecting policy based authorisation infrastructures to Grid applications, and then describes the PERMIS authorisation infrastructure which has implemented this interface. The paper concludes with suggestions about how this work will evolve in the future
Chadwick-Teague House
No full textCraftsman style house, one of the first two residences in Sunset Park, built for David Nicholas Chadwick (1884-1962), secretary-treasurer of Fidelity Trust and Development Company, developer of Sunset Park; and wife, Ethel Hopkins (1885-1966).

In the Footsteps of the Brontës
No full textA few years after Esther Alice Chadwick (fl. 1882–1928) - who wrote under the name Mrs Ellis H. Chadwick - had read a copy of Elizabeth Gaskell's Life of Charlotte Brontë, she moved to a house near the Haworth vicarage where the Brontë family had lived. As a result, Chadwick was able to speak to many people who had known the family, and in 1914 she published this extensive biography of the family. Beginning with the Irish ancestry of the three famous sisters, Charlotte (1816–55), Emily (1818–48) and Anne (1820–49), she traces their short but eventful lives. Chadwick examines their early years and the influence of their father, Patrick, his work in the ministry and the family's time at Haworth. Later chapters are devoted to the sisters' education and their literary output, seeking to understand their extraordinary creativity amid the difficult circumstances of their life.</jats:p
Il logos inciso nell'argilla. Ricordo di John Chadwick
No full textOn the centenary of the birth of John Chadwick (who, together with Michael Ventris, deciphered the Cretan script "Linear B"), the author, who knew him personally and corresponded with him, reconstructs and relates unpublished aspects of how Chadwick arrived at his discoveries, thanks to his military decryption experiences during the Second World War. Philosophy had flourished on Greek soil several centuries after Linear B, yet we cannot help but recognise that its basic constituent, the logos, the word as the expression of (future) thought, was indeed born on the clay tablets of Crete.Nel centenario della nascita di John Chadwick (il quale decifrò insieme a Michael Ventris la scrittura cretese “Lineare B”), l’autore, che lo conobbe personalmente ed ebbe con lui uno scambio epistolare, ricostruisce e riferisce aspetti inediti di come Chadwick giunse alle sue scoperte, grazie a esperienze di decrittazione militare risalenti alla Seconda Guerra Mondiale. La filosofia era fiorita sul suolo greco diversi secoli dopo la Lineare B, eppure non possiamo fare a meno di riconoscere che il suo costituente basilare, il logos, la parola in quanto espressione del pensiero (futuro), era davvero nato sulle tavolette d’argilla di Creta

Piracy and the Origins of Universal Jurisdiction : :On Stranger Tides? /
No full textIn Piracy and the Origins of Universal Jurisdiction , Mark Chadwick relates a colourful account of how and why piracy on the high seas came to be considered an international crime, subject to the principle of universal jurisdiction prosecutable by any State in any circumstances. Merging international and domestic law, history, literature, and sociology, the author weaves an intricate tale that reveals the pirate to be the original "enemy of mankind" and forerunner of today's international criminals: those who commit genocide, crimes against humanity, war crimes and aggression. In so doing, Mark Chadwick proposes a convincing reappraisal of the pirate's role in the crystallisation of international criminal law, bringing much-needed clarity to a disputed area of international legal history
The development of mission theology and praxis at Cliff College, with reference to its antecedents and history.
No full textA thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the department of Theology and Religion, Faculty of Arts, Durham University 2005.This thesis is an examination and evaluation of evangelistic ministry at Cliff College and its major themes, or Charisms. It charts the rise of the College and its antecedents in section one, introducing the main characters and events. Section two introduces themes that have shaped the tradition of the College; the most significant being holiness teaching which finds its origins in the works of John Wesley. Though they differed in emphasis, most Principals were proponents of this doctrine. There developed at the College a theology which was biblical and evangelical but not fundamentalist or sectarian. The College espoused 'faith principles' but ensured supporters were aware of its needs. The College is known primarily for training people in evangelism. Section three charts this innovative ministry beginning with the joyful News Mission and continuing through the years of Cook, Chadwick and Broadbelt. Between 1939 and the late 1950s there was a dearth of creative thinking about evangelism. Meadley and Beiben laid the foundations that, in the late 1970s, gave rise to a new strategy which was given impetus through the 1980s. The innovative thinking of the first period is illustrated by reference to the Joyful News female evangelists and the trekkers. Section four examines the particular academic stance taken by College Principals. This was specifically to offer training, focussed on evangelistic ministry, to those who may not otherwise have the opportunity. A policy of open access was retained throughout, with the College seeking proper recognition. This eventually came with the validation of the College programmes by the University of Sheffield. Chapter eleven charts the emergence of missiology as a discipline in the academy. The conclusion identifies the ambivalent attitude of Methodism to the College, and that its major charisms continue to have a significant influence though in need of constant restatement

Chadwick, Liverpool and the bomb.
No full textThe author intends to set out in this thesis Chadwick's scientific and diplomatic
contribution to the development of the atomic bombs that ended World War Two. The
far-reaching consequences of Chadwick's efforts to establish a nuclear physics research
prograrmne, both academic and commercial, in austere post-war Britain are also shown.
A brief history of Chadwick's academic career, at Manchester, Cambridge and Liverpool
Universities is given, which indicate how his intimate knowledge of atomic and nuclear
physics culminated in the building of a state-of-the-art 37" pole diameter cyclotron at
Liverpool University. The help that Lawrence and his colleagues generously and freely
gave to Chadwick is also acknowledged.
The crucial role of the Liverpool cyclotron in determining the necessary nuclear fission
cross-section measurements needed to establish the feasibility of an atomic bomb, is also
discussed. Chadwick's precise and penetrating insight of the bomb's feasibility, was
presented in the final Maud Report that was sent, prior to the bombing of Pearl Harbour,
to the U.S.A. It was this Report that convinced the Americans that an atomic bomb was
a feasible and obtainable objective and started, as a matter of urgency, American fission
bomb research.
A brief history of fission and the events surrounding its discovery is also presented, as is a
comparative discussion on the German and Japanese progress in atomic bomb research
in World War Two.
It would not have been possible to give specific details of many of the above events
without primary source material to substantiate them The author has located a large
number of previously un-published letters, documents and photographs - only some of
which have been included - but all of which are being incorporated into a Chadwick
