    Dissertação (mestrado) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina, Centro de Filosofia e Ciências Humanas. Programa de Pós-Graduação em FilosofiaMartin Heidegger e Jacques Ellul sao geralmente considerados como pensadores que entenderam a tecnica moderna como uma entidade autonoma com relacao a vida humana, por mais que o homem seja o criador das tecnicas e artefatos. Heidegger parece ver na tecnica moderna uma sorte de destino a que o homem nao pode escapar. Ellul denuncia o #\fenomeno tecnico. como uma realidade que, uma vez instalada, escapa ao controle humano. Este trabalho analisa as ideias de ambos os pensadores e mostra que, no entanto, nao e facil atribuir a nenhum deles a crenca num determinismo tecnologico. Esperamos assim contribuir, nao apenas para a melhor compreensao desses autores, como tambem para saber ate que ponto somos donos da nossa vida ao vivermos num mundo quase totalmente tecnologico

    A Dynamic Size Distributed Program Image Cache for Wireless Sensor Networks

    No full text
    Reprogramming node software over-the-air is an essential requirement in many wireless sensor network applications due to the inaccessibility of the deployed sensor nodes. Transmitting whole software images consumes a high amount of energy in proportion to updates, especially when they are small in size. Incremental updates have addressed this; however introduce the potential of a sensor node becoming out of sync when it misses an update. In this paper we present a dynamic size distributed program image cache that provides increased efficiency in reprogramming out of sync nodes and multi-purpose wireless sensor networks

    Field deployment of low power high performance nodes

    When deploying a sensor network into a harsh environment the need for high levels of fault tolerance and maximising the usage of available resources become extremely important. This has been achieved by implementing a highly fault tolerant system based on our Gumsense boards. These combine an ARM-based Linux system with an MSP430 for sensing and power-control. It also allows for dynamic schedule modifications based on the available power and can be synchronised with other systems without relying on direct communication, autonomous behaviour in case of total communications failure is also supported. A deployment on Vatnajökull, the largest ice-cap in Europe, has provided a longterm test for the systems and revealed strengths and weaknesses in the design decisions

    Jacques Ellul on Revolution

    No full text
    A recurrent theme throughout the writings of Professor Jacques Ellul, a prominent Protestant theologian and social thinker, has been the need for revolutionary action in the modern world. This thesis will first explicate what he means by calling Christianity a revolutionary faith. Then it will outline his social thought concerning the theory and practice of revolution. Finally, it will show how the two accounts fit together within his total plan. The main argument will be-that his social analysis concerning revolution is directly dependent on his revolutionary theology.Master of Arts (MA
