Freedom’s cry: the popular dimension in the Pakistan Movement and Partition experience in North West India
No full textStandard historical accounts of the emergence of Pakistan have been dominated by events and issues at the elite level of politics. This book introduces two new angles to the subject. It lays particular emphasis firstly on the role of popular participation in the freedom struggle and secondly on the human dimension of the Partition experience. In order to open up these fresh perspectives this study utilizes new sources, including the extended use of fictitional representation. In addition to the injection of a human perspective into the historical discourse on Pakistan's emergence, the author provides comprehensive data on refugee resettlement and bibliographical notes.Ian Talbot examines the role of popular participation in the Pakistan Movement and the social and psychological impact of the 1947 experience. While standard historical accounts have been dominated by events and issues at the elite level of politics, the author introduces two more angles to the study of the Freedom Movement: he lays particular emphasis on, firstly, the role of the ordinary citizen, and secondly, the human dimension of the Partition experience. Exploring these fresh perspectives, he includes the extended use of fictional representation and provides comprehensive data on refugee resettlement

Efecto Talbot Unidimensional y Bidimensional
No full textIn this paper, we show some experimental results obtained by us in the summer of 2014 in IPICyT to prove the occurrence of the Talbot effect. This effect is due to the constructive interference which leads to the appearance of clear images at a certain distance behind a periodic object illuminated by a light source. The distance of appearance is known as the Talbot distance and provides the spatial scale of this self-imaging phenomenon. We used onedimensional periodic and quasi-periodic gratings as well as two-dimensional hexagonal ones which have been produced by using the Adobe Illustrator graphical program at calculated spatial frequencies that allowed the observation of the effect within the laboratory. The gratings have been illuminated with a He-Ne laser of wavelength 633 nm (red) for which we determined the distance at which a clear self-image of the gratings could be obtained.En este trabajo se muestran los resultados de los experimentos realizados en el verano del 2014 en el IPICYT, para corroborar la existencia del efecto Talbot el cual consiste en la reaparición de una imagen nítida de un objeto periódico iluminado por una fuente de luz cada cierta distancia después del objeto. Esta distancia se le conoce como distancia de Talbot y da la escala espacial de este fenómeno. Se utilizaron rejillas unidimensionales periódicas, aperiódicas y bidimensionales con estructura hexagonal, todas fueron creadas previamente con el programa grafico Adobe Illustrator con las frecuencias espaciales que se calcularon que darían una distancia de Talbot que permite la observación del efecto en el laboratorio. Las rejillas se iluminaron con un láser de He-Ne de longitud de onda de 633 nm (rojo) y posteriormente se localizó a que distancia se volvía a formar la auto-imagen de la rejilla

Algorithm 944: Talbot Suite: parallel implementations of Talbot's method for the numerical inversion of Laplace transforms
No full textWe present Talbot Suite, a C parallel software collection for the numerical inversion of Laplace Transforms, based on Talbot's method. It is designed to fit both single and multiple Laplace inversion problems, which arise in several application and research fields. In our software, we achieve high accuracy and efficiency making full use of modern architectures and introducing
two different levels of parallelism: coarse and fine grained parallelism. They offer a reasonable tradeoff between accuracy, the main aspect for a few inversions, and efficiency, the main aspect for multiple inversions. To take into account modern high performance computing architectures, Talbot Suite provides different software versions: an OpenMP-based version for shared memory machines and a MPI-based version for distributed memory machines. Moreover, oriented to hybrid architectures, a combined MPI/OpenMP-based implementation is provided too.
We describe our parallel algorithms and the software organization. We also report some performance results. Our software includes sample programs to call the Talbot Suite functions from C and from MATLAB
