    Este estudio busca comprender la configuración de las prácticas musicales en la cotidianidad de la familia Prieto Monroy. La investigación implicó observar los nodos y la redes entre actores, lugares y espacios, objetos y acciones; identificar patrones y rutinas de escucha, habla e interpretación; y analizar de forma compleja las prácticas musicales de la familia. El estudio de caso alrededor de la música que acontece con y en la familia Prieto Monroy se plantea como una investigación de tipo micro social que aborda el espacio privado, escrita en primera persona. Así, pretende interpelar y ser un punto de perspectiva y reflexión sobre cómo se ha entendido la práctica musical desde los estudios culturales y las ciencias sociales. A través de la teoría del actor-red y el giro afectivo, la tesis presenta el concepto de prácticas musicales afectivas entendidas como una configuración de relaciones de actores, espacios y lugares, acciones y objetos que suceden con y a través de la música como fenómeno sonoro. El ensamblaje social que presenta el caso de la familia Prieto Monroy puede mostrar las relaciones y nodos entre agencias conectadas (Latour, 2013), como también es un reflejo de un compendio de emociones y conocimientos que pasan a través del cuerpo y la intersubjetividad (Wetherell, 2012). Los datos se recogieron a través de entrevistas semiestructuradas; observación, participación y entrevista etnográfica; recopilación de fotografías familiares y videos familiares; y la reflexión los recuerdos propios de la investigadora. Los resultados que presenta esta investigación se establecen en 3 vías principales: la reconstrucción de la historia familiar vista desde el lente de la música, la comprensión de las prácticas entendidas como prácticas musicales afectivas, y la presentación de una perspectiva metodológica que incluye las vivencias propias de la investigadora y que tiene la posibilidad de ser un aporte para las investigaciones musicales desde el eje de la vida cotidiana y el espacio privado. Por lo tanto, el trabajo está constituido con base en el cruce de las trayectorias familiares y la música en la vida cotidiana de cuatro generaciones. Esto se aborda por medio de la noción de los grooves generacionales, que sirven como puntos focales para la comprensión de gustos, prácticas musicales, y usos de lo material a través del tiempo. Adicionalmente, se expone una interpretación de la vida cotidiana en la que se analizan los afectos, las prácticas musicales dentro de la familia, el espacio de la vivienda y sus relaciones, las tecnologías, los instrumentos musicales y la música misma; todo esto de manera compleja. Para ello se apela al análisis de las relaciones entre seres humanos y materialidad, por medio de la idea de la resonancia, la cuál es el resultado de un trabajo de mediación entre lo natural y lo cultural, lo local (música en la vida privada) y lo global (música institucional). (Texto tomado e la fuente)This study aims to understand the configuration of musical practices in the everyday life of the Prieto Monroy family. The research involved observing the nodes and networks among actors, places and spaces, objects, and actions; identifying patterns and routines of listening, speaking, and interpretation; and conducting a complex analysis of the family's musical practices. The case study revolving around music that occurs with and within the Prieto Monroy family is proposed as a microsocial research conducted within the private sphere, written in the first person. Thus, it intends to challenge and provide a perspective and reflection on how musical practice has been understood from cultural studies and social sciences. Through the actor-network theory and the affective turn, the thesis introduces the concept of affective musical practices, understood as a configuration of relationships among actors, spaces and places, actions, and objects that occur with and through music as a sound phenomenon. The social assemblage presented by the case of the Prieto Monroy family can reveal the relationships and nodes among connected agencies (Latour, 2013), as well as reflect a compilation of emotions and knowledge that pass through the body and intersubjectivity (Wetherell, 2012). Data was collected through semi-structured interviews; observation, participation, and ethnographic interviews; collection of family photographs and family videos; and the reflection on the researcher's own memories. The results presented by this research are established in three main analisys pathways: the reconstruction of family history seen through the lens of music, the understanding of practices as affective musical practices, and the presentation of a methodological perspective that includes the researcher's own experiences and has the potential to contribute to musical research from the perspective of everyday life and private space. Therefore, the work is based on the intersection of family trajectories and music in the everyday life of four generations. This is addressed through the notion of generational grooves, which serve as focal points for understanding tastes, musical practices, and the use of material over time. Additionally, an interpretation of everyday life is presented in which affections, musical practices within the family, the living space and its relationships, technologies, musical instruments, and music itself are analyzed; all of this in a complex mode. This involves the analysis of relationships between humans and materiality, through the idea of resonance, which is the result of a mediation between the natural and the cultural, the local (music in private life) and the global (institutional music).MaestríaMagisterEtnografí

    Searching for a Solution to Program Verification=Equation Solving in CCS

    No full text
    Unique Fixpoint Induction, UFI, is a chief inference rule to prove the equivalence of recursive processes in CCS [7]. It plays a major role in the equational approach to verification. This approach is of special interest as it offers theoretical advantages in the analysis of systems that communicate values, have infinite state space or show parameterised behavior.The use of UFI, however, has been neglected, because automating theorem proving in this context is an extremely difficult task. The key problem with guiding the use of this rule is that we need to know fully the state space of the processes under consideration. Unfortunately, this is not always possible, because these processes may contain recursive symbols, parameters, and so on.We introduce a method to automate the use of UFI. The method uses middle-out reasoning and, so, is able to apply the rule even without elaborating the details of the application. The method introduces variables to represent those bits of the processes’ state space that, at application time, were not known, hence, changing from equation verification to equation solving.Adding this method to the equation plan developed by Monroy, Bundy and Green [8], we have implemented an automated verification planner. This planner increases the number of verification problems that can be dealt with fully automatically, thus improving upon the current degree of automation in the field

    Clinical translation of optical coherence tomography for the diagnosis of otitis media: validation and tracking of biofilms on the tympanic membrane and development of a novel automated classification and diagnostic platform

    Otitis media (OM), an infection of the middle ear, is one of the most common reasons for children to seek medical care and receive antibiotics. While typically identified and diagnosed through the visual examination of the ear with an otoscope, this method provides limited quantitative information and relies on the skill level of the observer. Previous investigation of pediatric subjects using optical coherence tomography (OCT), a noninvasive cross-sectional imaging modality that uses low-power near-infrared light to provide depth-resolved structural images of tissue, characterized and established normative bounds for in vivo acute and chronic OM infection states. While it is known that biofilms are present on the middle ear mucosa during chronic OM, similar microbial-related structures were observed to be affixed on the internal mucosal surface of the tympanic membrane (TM) using OCT. These structures have not been identified or analyzed by any characterization technique, or observed for the response to standard of care treatment of OM. Furthermore, OCT experts have been primarily responsible for the assessment of OCT images of OM, with little translation of this technique outside of well-controlled academic-led studies. This dissertation establishes (1) the presence and characterization of biofilms adhered to the TM through direct observation, sampling, and analysis, (2) tympanostomy tube surgery as an effective therapeutic treatment to clear biofilms on the TM, and finally demonstrates (3) automated classification methods to identify features of OM infection in OCT data. Collectively, these results provide new insight into the pathogenesis and treatment of OM and demonstrate new quantitative tools that are crucial to further disseminate OCT imaging as a diagnostic tool for OM.Submission published under a 24 month embargo labeled 'U of I Access', the embargo will last until 2020-08-01The student, Guillermo Monroy, accepted the attached license on 2018-07-05 at 13:19.The student, Guillermo Monroy, submitted this Dissertation for approval on 2018-07-05 at 13:23.This Dissertation was approved for publication on 2018-07-06 at 11:40.DSpace SAF Submission Ingestion Package generated from Vireo submission #12738 on 2018-09-27 at 11:16:33Made available in DSpace on 2018-09-27T16:30:18Z (GMT).

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    No full text
    The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
