Ang Impluwensiyang Rizal sa Ilang Piling Anyo ng Panitikan, at Pelikula sa Pagdaan ng Panahon
No full textABSTRAKSapat na ang nakalipas na mahigit isandaangtaong pagsulpot at pananatili ng buhay at mga akda ni Jose Rizal upang sabihing nakaimpluwensya nga ito sa mga banghay at berso ng mga sumusunod na makata, kuwentista, nobelista, dramaturgo o maging manlilikha ng pelikula. Dahil may budbod pang-unibersal ang paksang tangaytangay ng mgalikha ni Rizal, kung tutuusi’y halos lahat na yata ng panitikero’t manunulat na sumulpot matapos ang panahon ng bayani ay maaaring ituring na impluwensyado ng kaniyang kaisipan at pilosopiya. Matutunghayan sa papel na ito ang isang inisyal na pagtatala ng ilang piling anyo na naglalaman ng mga simpleng pagkasangkapan sa mga pangunahing tauhan sa Noli Me Tangere at El Filibusterismo at sa kaniyang mga ideya, konsepto, at ideolohiya tungkol sa wika, kabataan, edukasyon, katarungan, bayan, kalayaan, at iba pa. Itatala rin dito ang mga akdang isinulat ng mga manunulat na malay sa panggagagad sa banghay at buhay ni Rizal, at ang mga nagwagi sa patimpalak Carlos Palanca partikular sa anyong maiklingkuwento.Ang konsepto ng pagiging malay ng mga manunulat ay ibabatay ng mananaliksik sa pagkaintindi nila sa kasaysayan at lipunan, at sa sariling pagbasa sa kabuuan ng manunulat bilang alagad ng arte at literatura. Nais ding bigyan ng pansin sa papel na ito ang kagyat na pagsusuri kung ano ang nagtulak sa kanila upang lumikha ng akdang dinampot o kung di ma’y nagpatuloy sa krusada ng mga tauhan ni Rizal. Ililimita sa mga anyo ng tula, maikling kuwento, nobela, at pelikula ang pagtatala ayon sa bigat ng impluwensiya at impact sa masang manonood. Ibig sabihin may akdang direktang gumamit ng tauhan at banghay bagama’t ang ila’y nakuntento na lamang sa panggagagad ng imahen. Mga susing salita: Impluwensiyang Rizal ABSTRACTIt has been more than a century since Rizal has offered his life and works for the Filipinos and the world. The universal subject and representations of characters in his poetry, prose and novel, must have a huge impact on his readers that many works of poets, short story writers, novelists, playwrights and other literati bear semblance to them. Some contemporary literary pieces use his main characters in Noli Me Tangere and El Filibusterismo, while others play with his central views on language and education, struggle for freedom and equality, and his trust and confidence on the youth to bring forth change, among others. This paper is an initial work that aims to document and study films and other literary pieces that manifest the ideas and characters of Rizal. The survey includes works by writers known to have been influenced by the writings of Rizal, as well as literary genres that won in the Carlos Palanca Memorial Awards for Literature. The study will look at the impact of Rizal’s ideas based on how they were used in the stories, represented in the verses, and how his characters in the two main novels have continue living in contemporary literature. It will also analyze factors that have influenced writers in carrying on with these themes. Keywords: Influences of Riza

"Death, Buddhism, and Existentialism in the Songs of Tr???nh C??ng S??n"
No full textVarious explanations have been offered for the extraordinary popularity of the composer and singer Tr???nh C??ng S??n: his poetic lyrics, his avoidance of the clich??s of prewar music, his antiwar themes, his ability to choose talented female singers, and the like. But little has been said about the Buddhist themes in his songs, perhaps because Vietnamese scholars take them for granted. This article points out these themes and argues that they help explain the Tr???nh C??ng S??n phenomenon. It also discusses European existentialism, which the author argues fascinated Tr???nh C??ng S??n but was ultimately not a major influence on his work
Near-Capacity Turbo Trellis Coded Modulation Design
No full textBandwidth efficient parallel-concatenated Turbo Trellis Coded Modulation (TTCM) schemes were designed for communicating over uncorrelated Rayleigh fading channels. A symbol-based union bound was derived for analysing the error floor of the proposed TTCM schemes. A pair of In-phase (I) and Quadrature-phase (Q) interleavers were employed for interleaving the I and Q components of the TTCM coded symbols, in order to attain an increased diversity gain. The decoding convergence of the IQ-TTCM schemes was analysed using symbol based EXtrinsic Information Transfer (EXIT) charts. The best TTCM component codes were selected with the aid of both the symbol-based union bound and non-binary EXIT charts for the sake of designing capacity-approaching IQ-TTCM schemes in the context of 8PSK, 16QAM and 32QAM signal sets. It will be shown that our TTCM design is capable of approaching the channel capacity within 0.5 dB at a throughput of 4 bit/s/Hz, when communicating over uncorrelated Rayleigh fading channels using 32QAM
Near-capacity code design for entanglement-assisted classical communication over quantum depolarizing channels
No full textWe have conceived a near-capacity code design for entanglement-assisted classical communication over the quantum depolarizing channel. The proposed system relies on efficient near-capacity classical code designs for approaching the entanglement-assisted classical capacity of a quantum depolarizing channel. It incorporates an Irregular Convolutional Code (IRCC), a Unity Rate Code (URC) and a soft-decision aided Superdense Code (SD), which is hence referred to as an IRCC-URC-SD arrangement. Furthermore, the entanglement-assisted classical capacity of an N-qubit superdense code transmitted over a depolarizing channel is invoked for benchmarking. It is demonstrated that the proposed system operates within 0.4 dB of the achievable noise limit for both 2-qubit as well as 3-qubit SD schemes. More specifically, our design exhibits a deviation of only 0.062 and 0.031 classical bits per channel use from the corresponding 2-qubit and 3-qubit capacity limits, respectively. The proposed system is also benchmarked against the classical convolutional and turbo codes

Type locality. Vanuatu. Description. Carapace slightly wider than long, almost square, covered with dense coat of setae, among which stands small tufts of setae resembling tubercles; denuded carapace with smooth surface (Fig. 7 A). Postfrontal lobes distinct, divided by longitudinal grooves; distal pair indistinct (Fig. 7 A). Inner orbital angle present, pronounced (Fig. 7 C). Carapace dorsal-ventrally flattened. Regions less defined. Anterolateral margin of carapace with 3 triangular teeth, inclusive of external orbital angle (Fig. 7 A): Anterolateral teeth well defined by setae on margin; second and third tooth less distinct when denuded; posterolateral margin slightly convex. Entire margin of carapace fringed with dense, short setae. Chelipeds equal or subequal in size; large, robust in males; small, slender in female. Outer surface of chela smooth when denuded. Dorsal surface of carpus covered with small tufts of setae resembling tubercles, smooth when denuded. Single longitudinal pectinated ridge present on dorsal surface of chela, with about 37 fine teeth; dorsal surface of movable dactylus of chela with 19 or 20 tubercles, evenly spaced, proximal tubercles small, increasing in size medially, decreasing in size distally (Fig. 8). Tubercles on movable dactylus of chela present in female but smaller, less distinct. Inner surface of palm of adult male granular, with single vertical row of approximately 6 granules, widely spaced (Fig. 8 B). Row of tubercles present behind pectinated ridge on inner surface of male chela (Figs. 8 A, 8 C). Walking legs covered with dense coat of setae, with small tufts of setae resembling tubercles, smooth when denuded; longer setae on dorsal and ventral margins of entire leg except dactylus; meri with a deep groove subdistally. Third walking leg: merus approximately 2 times longer than wide; combined length of carpus and propodus almost similar to length of merus; propodus approximately 2.7 times longer than wide. Thoracic sternum setose, covered with short setae. Abdomen of male wide; widest at somite 3; telson oval shape (Fig. 7 B). Long setae fringed margins of abdomen. Female abdomen wider, round, telson half embedded in sixth abdominal somite. Tip of G 1 with dense tufts of setae, single row of setae on exterior margin; chitinous tip visible when denuded (Fig. 9 B–D). Etymology. This species is named after the geographical region of which Vanuatu, Solomon Islands, and New Caledonia are part of, the geographical distribution of the new species. Remarks. Clistocoeloma melanesicum n. sp. is superficially similar to C. balansae in carapace features, especially before the setae are removed. Once denuded, the differences are apparent—the dorsal carapace surface of C. melanesicum n. sp. being smooth with the postfrontal lobe indistinctly separated by short and shallow longitudinal grooves (Fig. 7 A) (granular carapace surface and the postfrontal lobe distinctly divided into two by deep grooves in C. balansae; Figs. 1 A, 2 A, 3 A); and the second and third anterolateral teeth are relatively low (Fig. 7 A) (pronounced in C. balansae, Figs. 1 A, 2 A, 3 A). Whereas the male chela has a row of granules on the inner surface of the chelae in both species, that of C. melanesicum n. sp. has fewer number of granules (six), which are more widely spaced (fig. 8 B) compared to C. balansae (Fig. 4 B), which has more granules (nine) that are more closely spaced. The pectinated ridge on both species has different granule counts, with C. melanesicum n. sp. having more than C. balansae (37 versus 30). There is also a row of granules behind the pectinated ridge on the male chela of C. melanesicum n. sp. (Fig. 8 B), whereas only a single granule can be seen behind the pectinated ridge on the male chela (Fig. 4 B) of C. balansae. The overall male abdomen shapes for both species are similar, but it is usually relatively narrower in C. melanesicum n. sp. (Fig. 7 B vs. Fig. 3 B). The overall structure of the G 1 of C. melanesicum n. sp. is relatively narrower and less stout (Fig. 9) than in C. balansae, in contrast to a G 1 that is proportionately wider subdistally in C. balansae (Fig. 5). Distribution. New Caledonia, Vanuatu, and, Solomon Islands. Ecological notes. It is noteworthy that both C. balansae and C. melanesicum n. sp. are present in New Caledonia and Vanuatu. While we do not have detailed ecological data for New Caledonia, the specimens of C. balansae and C. melanesicum n. sp. were mostly collected from different types of mangrove forests; however, the respective mangrove species were not identified. Clistocoeloma balansae appears to inhabit coastal patch mangroves next to the open sea in Vanuatu, whereas C. melanesicum n. sp. was found in denser mangrove forests near rivers. Only one specimen of C. melanesicum n. sp. was collected together with C. balansae at the fringe mangroves between Rose Point and Nasouli River.Published as part of Lee, B. Y., Ng, N.
