    MI: Global COE Program Education-and-Research Hub for Mathematics-for-IndustryグローバルCOEプログラム「マス・フォア・インダストリ教育研究拠点」One way of improving efficiency of Gentry\u27s fully homomorphic encryption from ideal lattices is controlling the number of operations, but our recollection is that any scheme which controls the bound has not proposed. In this paper, we propose a key generation algorithm for Gentry\u27s scheme that controls the bound of the circuit depth by using the relation between the circuit depth and the eigenvalues of a basis of a lattice. We present experimental results that show that the proposed algorithm is practical. We discuss security of the basis of the lattices generated by the algorithm for practical use

The process of developing the website and the result were discussed and suggestions for future marketing were given to the commissioner

    UnBoxing the MI Box: A study on how to transfer from monitoring to coaching with the MI Box to increase self-care activities

    Problem Background:Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the most common cause of death in the world (Johnston et al., 2016). One of the main causes for cardiovascular mortality is a myocardial infarction (MI) (Jneid et al., 2013; Mishra & Ramavataram, 2021; Verburg et al., 2019). A myocardial infarction is an event in which the heart muscle is damaged because of a complete or partial absence of oxygen supply (Mishra & Ramavataram, 2021)The healthcare system is pressured by the enormous number of CVD cases (Kaushik et al., 2020). Digital care has gained recognition in the past decade because of its potential to release some pressure from the healthcare system. With the potential of digital care in mind, Leiden University Medical Center (LUMC) has developed a concept called “The MI Box” which provides patients who have had an MI with self-monitoring devices (The Box, 2021). During the hospitalisation phase of the MI care trajectory, there is little time to involve patients in their care because healthcare professionals (HCPs) need to work as quickly as possible to avoid as much heart damage as possible. This is causing patients to have a bad discharge experience. The MI Box shows potential to involve patients more after the discharge as the concept shows the monitored values to patients. However, it can be difficult for patients to understand these values and how to use them for self-care activities, especially because of the little involvement during hospitalisation. If LUMC wants to satisfy its aim to change from monitoring to coaching, it is crucial to provide patients with enough support to work with their monitored values and perform self-care activities. Increasing patient involvement is an essential first step before shared decision making (SDM) can be realised. SDM is a suitable approach for the change towards coaching as it invites patients to make their own care choices. In the MI care trajectory, the implementation of SDM is currently lacking. Therefore, further analysis of SDM is needed. A tool that is valuable for the analysis and increasement of SDM, and which is used in this thesis, is the Metro Mapping tool (Metro Mapping, n.d.). Besides, because the MI Box causes care to be transferred to a patient’s home environment, it is necessary to consider the home context of a patient as care activities do not happen in a controlled hospital environment. Currently, little is known about the context in which the MI Box is used. Therefore, more knowledge about the context is necessary to consider what support means would be suitable to offer to patients to make them more empowered to perform self-care activities.Research Question:How to shift from monitoring to coaching with the MI Box?Research activities:-Literature research;-Interviews: HCPs (n=5), MI patients (n=4), MI Box users (n=2);-Context mapping;-Metro Mapping.Design Goal:The goal is to increase patients’ confidence to perform self-care activities by increasing patients’ involvement and guidance with the use of the MI Box.Final Concept:“UnBoxing the MI Box”Design for Interaction | Medisig

    Independence or Development?: An Overview of Turkeyís Foreign Language Education Policies

    No full text
    Many countries have long had two sorts of interests; on the one hand, they have had to remain independent via protecting and promoting their official languages as a powerful symbol of their identities, and on the other hand, they have had to enable technological and economic development, which essentially involves international communication, usually by means of a foreign language. These two sorts of interests have often posed a dilemma for those countries and their peoples, because protecting and promoting identities have often implied closed and egocentric policies while international communication has involved more open and other-conscious policies. In todayís world, this dilemma is even more highlighted because of the so-called "globalization", which is taking place. In this article, I will present this dilemma by focussing on one country, Turkey, and its foreign language education policies. An historical account of the countryís interaction with other languages (than Turkish) will precede a presentation of the recent shape the recurring dilemma took, namely, teaching foreign languages versus teaching in a foreign language, in the daily national papers and publications in the1989 and 1997 discussions. I will then make personal suggestions of conduct for decision-makers in Turkey and other countries facing the same dilemma.Turkey, foreign language education, language planning

    Disputed relocation and property development in Shanghai, 1990-2005

    No full text
    This dissertation research examines social conflicts over large-scale community displacement arising from capitalist property development beginning in the early 1990s in Shanghai, China. Using ethnographic, archival, and legal research methods, this research provides an in-depth analysis of residents' years-long opposition to forced relocation, through which they sought to assert claims of rights and interests in the context of China's still top-down property regime. It argues that two structural forces prevent a broader participatory movement from raising a fundamental challenge to the existing property development regime: the design and application of relocation law, and the state's power to exploit residents' fears of being accused as political subversives if they challenge the relocation process. These material and ideological forces act together to deflect residents' collective attempts to challenge the existing property regime and, instead, to channel opposition into a discussion of personal (i.e., individual) economic loss and its remediation through pecuniary compensation. This dissertation also examines how law and state supremacy serve to deter and deflect conflicts by providing a source of legitimation for the developmental forces driving disputed relocation. The research advances understanding of how urban China's spatial modernization policy has turned into a source of social unrest, which in turn has enhanced the development of a civil and rights-conscious society in China.Ph.D.Includes abstractVitaIncludes bibliographical referencesby Mi Shi

    Understanding the Progression of Mi\u27kmaw Law

    No full text
    Over the past 250 years, the recognition and implementation of the aboriginal and treaty rights of the Santi Mawio\u27mi of the Mi\u27kmaq has been a hard and bitter struggle for justice. Building on Mi\u27kmaw Aboriginal knowledge and legal traditions that inform their aboriginal and treaty rights, the Supreme Court of Canada has affirmed a Mi\u27kmaw right to hunt, fish, and gather in their traditional territory. The author focuses on the progression of Mi\u27kmaw law, drawing on the original teachings of the Mawio\u27mi embedded in Netukulimk and then shifting to the current legal strategy that creates a constitutional jurisgensis and a foundation for a long awaited constitutional reconciliation with the Mawiomi in Atlantic Canada. The argument not only reaffirms the importance of language, teachings, and history towards litigating Aboriginal law but also affirms the preexisting Aboriginal sovereignty of the Mawiomi as understood in their creation stories

    THE CROATIAN-HUNGARIAN PARTY AND GENTRY FROM TUROPOLJE, 1840TIES

    No full text
    Početkom 1840-ih na hrvatskoj političkoj sceni pojavile su se dvije stranke, Horvatsko-vugerska stranka i Ilirska, kasnije Narodna stranka. Razlike u ideologijama tih stranaka dovele su do oštre borbe između njih oko osvajanja vlasti u hrvatskim županijama i Saboru, koja je obilježila gotovo čitavo to desetljeće, a svoj su vrhunac imale 1848. godine kada je izbila revolucija. Horvatsko-vugerska stranka u tim se sukobima ponajviše oslanjala na turopoljsko plemstvo, koje je bilo njezin najznačajniji element. Ono je predstavljalo njezinu fizičku snagu, koja je dolazila do izražaja u borbama oko osvajanja vlasti u županija, ali i pokušaja da to plemstvo kao i sama stranka zauzmu značajno mjesto u Hrvatskom saboru. Stoga ne treba čuditi da su suvremenici stranku nazivali i turopoljskom strankom. No, uzme li se u obzir djelovanje Antuna Danijela Josipovića te činjenica da su još neki istaknuti članovi Horvatsko-vugerske stranke bili turopoljskog podrijetla, turopoljsko plemstvo bilo je i značajna intelektualna snaga stranke. Iz Josipovićevih nastupa na Ugarskom saboru može se shvatiti ideologija koju je zastupala Horvatsko-vugerska stranka, a ona se temeljila na očuvanju čvrstog saveza između Hrvatske i Ugarske i na prihvaćanju suvremene mađarske nacionalne ideologije, koja je težila stvaranju jedinstvene mađarske države s jednim političkim narodom, Mađarima, i jednim službenim jezikom, mađarskim, uz očuvanje uskog regionalnog identiteta, koji su promovirali pod krilaticom „Mi smo Horvati“. Josipović je svojim žustrim istupima na Ugarskom saboru uspio na dnevni red staviti i turopoljsko pitanje, što je još jedan dokaz važnosti turopoljskog plemstva u političkim previranjima tijekom 40-ih godina 19. stoljeća. Posljedica djelovanja turopoljskog plemstva tijekom 1840-ih bila je ta da je nekolicina turopoljskih plemića 1848. morala napustiti domovinu, a sama Turopoljska općina vojnički je upokorena.In the early 1840s two political parties appeared on the Croatian political scene, the Croatian-Hungarian Party and the Ilirian Party, later called the National Party. Their ideological differences caused constant conflicts between them, especially when struggling for the political power at the local county level and in the Croatian Parliament. In these conflicts the Croatian-Hungarian Party relied mainly on small landed gentry from Turopolje, which was numerous and represented its most significant support. Therefore, the opponents often referred to the Party as ‘the Turopolje Party’. However, taking into account the work of Antun Daniel Josipović, governor of Turopolje, as well as the fact that some other party members were of Turopolje origin, gentry from Turopolje represented also a strong intellectual force within the Party. Josipović, for example, advocated for close political alliance between Croatia and Hungary at the Hungarian Parliament based on acceptance of contemporary Hungarian national ideology: a unified Hungarian state with one nation, Hungarians, and one official language, Hungarian, but insisting on preservation of the Croatian autonomy within that state symbolized by the slogan “We are Croats”. This political attitude presented the ideology of the Croatian-Hungarian Party. Josipović’s brisk appearances in the Hungarian Parliament also managed to put on Diet’s agenda Turopolje question, another proof of the importance of gentry from Turopolje in the political turmoil during the 1840ties. However, in 1848 - due to their political actions during the 1840ties – some members of the party were politically persecuted and the Turopolje district was politically disciplined by military action

    This research paper focused attention on Meiktila, as a representative area like the rest of Upper Myanmar. The social life of Meiktila is discussed on the revenues and royal affairs paid by athi and the basic of rights and responsibilities of the ahmudans. The outstanding characteristic the study area was, most villages were small, with few inhabitants and was therefore sparsely populated. In these rural villages, a mixture of athi and ahmudans, or the peasantry and the gentry, lived together peacefully before Konbaung Period
