POSTMODERN THEATRALITY IN THE WORKS OF VILIAM KLIMÁČEK
No full textViliam Klimáček is nowadays the most known and most successful Slovak playwright. He is also called The Slovak Chekhov. His career began in 1985, when he co-founded an amateur theater company GUnaGU in Bratislava where he started as an actor, musician, director and co-author. As time went by, GUnaGU became professional and Klimáček left his original occupation ? medicine. The poetics of his plays and the artistic style of the company influenced each other through the years and became interdependent. Both show obvious signs of what we can call postmodern aesthetics. In this work we try to analyze the specificity of Klimáček?s and GUnaGU?s style and we try to place it in some larger context. This analysis is not only based on theoretical research but also on a practical experience of directing one of his plays ? Maria Sabina
Projectional editor for domain-specific languages
No full textTitle: Projectional editor for domain-specific languages Author: Ondřej Dvořák Department: Department of Distributed and Dependable Systems Supervisor: RNDr. Michal Malohlava Abstract: Programming is a craft requiring a good tooling. One of tools selected as crucial for software development is an integrated development environment (IDE) that allows to maintain most of the general-purpose languages. Domain-specific languages grow in a popularity last years, thus it is necessary to support them by IDE as well. Not just a textual or graphical form of DSL sources is suitable for their maintenance, so does the combination of them. One of the promising approaches is represented by a novel method called a projectional editing. Its objective is to show different visualization forms of program source code, combine and manipulate with them at one place. The thought is typically realized by a projectional editor. In this thesis we design a projectional editor for domain-specific languages and provide its experimental implementation. It analyzes potential approaches to a projectional editing and designs their suitable realization in Microsoft Visual Studio. It provides a universal implementation of a projectional editor on the top of Visual Studio as well as on the top of a standalone application. Moreover, it supports..
Poems as monuments. Towards outlining a type of occasional lyric in post-WWII literature
No full textOccasional verse is one of the oldest forms of lyric and it can be thought of as a form of materialisation and consolidation of memory. The character of this inevitably fleeting type of poetry that expresses an engagement of its author on a private or public matter much depends on historical and social changes. Occasional verse is inseparably bound
to the time of its composition as it addresses chosen aspects of the era and – especially when it comes to public occasional poems – makes visible the large period narratives. These attributes can also be identified in the Slovak poetry written after 1948 when Czechoslovakia entered the era of state socialism and the poetry in question was part of the system of socialist realism. When observing period’s occasional poetry from
the point of view of memory studies (especially general locations of memory and the theory of memorials), one can note striking similarities (poetological, functional) between a significant proportion of the period poetic production and war memorials built at that time. The article explains these relations as part of the specific construal of the national and socialist narrative in which differences between individual and
collective experience, everyday life and festivities, history and present, memory and history got radically blurred
Interdisciplinary Cooperation in the Virtual Presentation of Industrial Heritage Development
No full textAbstractThe issue of industrial heritage conservation as well as its new use has been worldwide hot topic for a longer period. Industrial heritage provides one of the most important records of urban development and progress of human civilization in the last two centuries. Monumental industrial buildings reflect the extraordinary technical and economic development and the progress in science and technology. Even after the termination of their original function, industrial heritage buildings and equipment's with their architecture are still participating in the atmosphere of each city in a significant way.The electricity industry played a key role in the life of the mankind. Electricity and electrical currents are intangible symbols of the creative use of the natural forces by man, also a real driving force for technological progress and extensive development of human knowledge. The young generation takes it for granted, with no interest in learning about its causal impact and context.A global problem is the decreasing interest of young people in studying natural sciences and engineering, which is a prerequisite for further technological progress and socio-economic development of the life of inhabitants. This lack of interest is justified by the high abstraction and lack of clarity in the scientific and technical fields which are move about from people's everyday lives. Therefore, the current trend is developing an interactive virtual model of presentations of this rich source of knowledge and experiences. Those are able to make technical museums more attractive and allow the inspirational use for a broader audience.The article “Interdisciplinary cooperation in the virtual presentation of industrial heritage development” is aimed to explore opportunities for collaboration between theoretical research, monument preservation, virtual reality and architectural practice. It deals with the identified key factors that conditionally affect the quality and efficiency of architectural design process within the cooperation in the conservation process. As well as it deals with the opportunities of transfer the research results from futuristic disciplines. For this purpose, the paper examines the case study “the reconstruction of old Power plant in city Piestany” and describes one of the possible solutions on the basis of the operational research model so-called “Educational polygon.
Design of Restoration of Regulated Rivers Based on Bioindication
No full textAbstractStreambeds of rivers and brooks should form the dominant features in the urbanized areas. However, the current river regulations were unilaterally focused on flood protection and riverbeds have generally the character of prismatic channel. This solution inhibits the aesthetic function of the watercourses and has the negative impacts on instream biota. Based on the results of the research that was carried out on the mountain streams of Slovakia the authors introduce the implementation of river restorations that maintain the flood protection of the area while retaining the landscaping features of the stream. The paper describes the procedure for restoring the regulated streams based on bioindication and documents the quality of aquatic habitat of regulated and natural streams in particular examples
Hazelcast jet: Low-latency stream processing at the 99.99<sup>th</sup> percentile
No full textJet is an open-source, high-performance, distributed stream processor built at Hazelcast during the last five years. Jet was engineered with millisecond latency on the 99.99th percentile as its primary design goal. Originally Jet’s purpose was to be an execution engine that performs complex business logic on top of streams generated by Hazelcast’s In-memory Data Grid (IMDG): a set of in-memory, partitioned and replicated data structures. With time, Jet evolved into a full-fledged, scale-out stream processor that can handle out-of-order streams and provide exactly-once processing guarantees. Jet’s end-to-end latency lies in the order of milliseconds, and its throughput in the order of millions of events per CPU-core. This paper presents the main design decisions we made in order to maximize the performance per CPU-core, alongside lessons learned, and an empirical performance evaluation.Web Information System
The recurrence of iatrogenic femoral artery pseudoaneurysm after occlusion by ultrasound guided percutaneous thrombin injection
No full textEffect of the REG1 anticoagulation system versus bivalirudin on outcomes after percutaneous coronary intervention (REGULATE-PCI): a randomised clinical trial.
No full textBACKGROUND
REG1 is a novel anticoagulation system consisting of pegnivacogin, an RNA aptamer inhibitor of coagulation factor IXa, and anivamersen, a complementary sequence reversal oligonucleotide. We tested the hypothesis that near complete inhibition of factor IXa with pegnivacogin during percutaneous coronary intervention, followed by partial reversal with anivamersen, would reduce ischaemic events compared with bivalirudin, without increasing bleeding.
METHODS
We did a randomised, open-label, active-controlled, multicentre, superiority trial to compare REG1 with bivalirudin at 225 hospitals in North America and Europe. We planned to randomly allocate 13,200 patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention in a 1:1 ratio to either REG1 (pegnivacogin 1 mg/kg bolus [>99% factor IXa inhibition] followed by 80% reversal with anivamersen after percutaneous coronary intervention) or bivalirudin. Exclusion criteria included ST segment elevation myocardial infarction within 48 h. The primary efficacy endpoint was the composite of all-cause death, myocardial infarction, stroke, and unplanned target lesion revascularisation by day 3 after randomisation. The principal safety endpoint was major bleeding. Analysis was by intention to treat. This trial is registered at ClinicalTrials.gov, identifier NCT01848106. The trial was terminated early after enrolment of 3232 patients due to severe allergic reactions.
FINDINGS
1616 patients were allocated REG1 and 1616 were assigned bivalirudin, of whom 1605 and 1601 patients, respectively, received the assigned treatment. Severe allergic reactions were reported in ten (1%) of 1605 patients receiving REG1 versus one (<1%) of 1601 patients treated with bivalirudin. The composite primary endpoint did not differ between groups, with 108 (7%) of 1616 patients assigned REG1 and 103 (6%) of 1616 allocated bivalirudin reporting a primary endpoint event (odds ratio [OR] 1·05, 95% CI 0·80-1·39; p=0·72). Major bleeding was similar between treatment groups (seven [<1%] of 1605 receiving REG1 vs two [<1%] of 1601 treated with bivalirudin; OR 3·49, 95% CI 0·73-16·82; p=0·10), but major or minor bleeding was increased with REG1 (104 [6%] vs 65 [4%]; 1·64, 1·19-2·25; p=0·002).
INTERPRETATION
The reversible factor IXa inhibitor REG1, as currently formulated, is associated with severe allergic reactions. Although statistical power was limited because of early termination, there was no evidence that REG1 reduced ischaemic events or bleeding compared with bivalirudin.
