Exploring hidden narratives: Conscript graffiti at the former military base of Kummersdorf
No full textThis article explores the cultural significance and interpretative potential of graffiti left by Soviet conscripts at Kummersdorf, a former military base in the German federal state of Brandenburg. The graffiti is framed as war art and its typology, distribution and content is studied in detail. In this way opportunities for further research are highlighted, as well as the potential for the graffiti to contribute to interpretative and conservation strategies. We demonstrate how the graffiti embodies multi-level interpretative narratives which can help to reveal hidden aspects of Soviet conscript life and cultural practices whilst alluding to global events and Soviet and Russian military policy. More generally, the article aims to promote the potential of graffiti and other forms of what is traditionally considered vandalism to contribute to the cultural significance and interpretation of heritage sites
NEW ANALYTICAL POLYCRYSTALLINE-SILICON THIN-FILM TRANSISTOR MODEL FOR COMPUTER-AIDED-DESIGN AND PARAMETER EXTRACTION
No full textWe present a new analytical model for the current-voltage characteristics of polycrystalline-silicon thin-film transistors (poly-Si TFTs). We use an "effective medium" approach which treats a polycrystalline film with grain boundaries as a uniform effective medium with an effective mobility and density of states in the energy gap. The current-voltage characteristics and their derivatives with respect to terminal voltages are continuous for both the below and above threshold regimes. A new interpretation of the saturation voltage allows us to accurately describe the finite output conductance in saturation, and we also realistically describe the "kink" effect. Our model has only five parameters which are easily extractable from experimental data: ideality factor (eta), low-field mobility (mu-0), threshold voltage (V(T)), output conductance parameter (GAMMA), and kink parameter (V0). We calculate the current-voltage characteristics of n- and p-channel poly-Si TFTs with 5, 6, 10, 15, and 30-mu-m gate lengths and 50-mu-m gate width and obtain a good agreement between calculation and experiment. Our analytical model is suitable for automatic parameter extraction and has been used for computer aided design

WO 2002/018592 A1 (PCT/AU2001/001097) filed Aug 31, 2001; published Mar 7, 2002.The invention provides an isolated DNA molecule comprising the nucleotide sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO: 1 or 2, or active fragments thereof, which encode a polypeptide active in suppressing cellular functions associated with cancer. In particular, the polypeptide (MTG16) functions as a tumour suppressor gene. It also provides variants of such DNA molecules which retain their function, polypeptides encoded by the DNA molecules and antibodies thereto, as well as the use of these molecules in diagnostic, prognostic and therapeutic procedures and other uses such as screening for candidate pharmaceuticals and animal model generation.Invented by D.

Informática educativa trabalhando com portadores de condutas típicas
No full textDissertação (mestrado) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina, Centro Tecnológico. Programa de Pós-Graduação em Engenharia de Produção.Este trabalho tem como questão central a análise dos processos de desenvolvimento de indivíduos com condutas típicas, mediados pelo uso do computador. O objetivo básico é criar oportunidades para que os portadores de condutas típicas desenvolvam integralmente suas potencialidades, integrando-se como sujeitos na comunidade. Propõe-se, ainda, analisar as representações dos professores do Projeto: Informática Educativa no Ensino Especial, voltado para a linha distúrbio de comportamento, sobre a utilização de computadores e verificar como eles se percebem no processo de implantação e do uso desta tecnologia em sala de aula, contribuindo para implementar inovações sugeridas como plano estratégico da instituição. Este estudo teve como metodologia básica, um estudo de caso, realizado em duas escolas de educação especial. Como resultado, podem-se destacar algumas questões importantes, tais como: a necessidade do envolvimento de todos os membros da equipe reunidos em torno de um propósito; a necessidade de se garantir condições básicas para um projeto desse porte, tais como - equipamentos, mudança curricular, preparação continuada da equipe; os avanços alcançados pelos alunos de condutas típicas na mediação do processo pelo uso do computador. Este estudo levanta uma questão crucial para as escolas de educação especial, em relação a utilização de tecnologias avançadas, não conseguindo porém, responder todas as indagações existentes sobre o tema, mas limita-se a indicar algumas alternativas e abre espaço para novos trabalhos
