    The Bibliographic Concept of Work in Cataloguing and its Issues

    No full text
    This report explores the IFLA’s document Functional Requirements for Bibliographic Records (FRBR). It discusses the notion of work in cataloguing as it was built since the 1950s, inasmuch this notion constitutes the conceptual framework for the proposal. Also, the entity-relationship database modeling (ERDM) system is described as far as such model provides to FRBR the operative elements that make it functional. ERDM gives to FRBR a user-centered approach as well. In its third chapter, the report tests the FRBR model through its application to a set of items belonging to the novel Rayuela, by Julio Cortázar, held at the Benson Latin American Collection of the University of Texas at Austin. Finally, some critical issues are raised along with general conclusions regarding the functionality of the mode

    Sisurcana recurvana (Zeller), new combination (Figs. 8, 13, 19) Tortrix recurvana Zeller, 1866: 143 Cacoecia recurvana: [unknown author, date] (new combination). “ Archips ” recurvana: Powell et al. 1995: 148 (new combination). [Archipini unplaced] recurvana: Brown 2005: 124. Type material.— Tortrix recurvana Zeller, 1866: Lectotype, ♀: COLOMBIA: EX. 66,173 f.5., Zeller Coll., Walsingham Collection, 1910-427, 102210 [examined]. B[ritish] M[useum] Genitalia slide #7851, Razowski genitalia slide #5361 [examined] (BMNH). Discussion.—Zeller described Tortrix recurvana from two females, but it is unclear who designated the female that we figure (Fig. 8) as the lectotype. Powell (1986) commented on this species in his description of Sisurcana, but refrained from transferring it to that genus. Tortrix recurvana is extremely similar in forewing pattern (Fig. 8) and in genitalia to Sisurcana sanguinoventer Razowski and Wojtusiak, 2010. However, the cestum in T. recurvana terminates before the corpus bursae (Fig. 19), but not in S. sanguinoventer. We examined a third female specimen from the BMNH collected in Peru (KAA diss. #0135), which looks like a smaller version of T. recurvana, but the apophyses are noticeably longer. It may represent an undescribed species. Based on similarities between T. recurvana and S. sanguinoventer, we transfer T. recurvana to Sisurcana. Males of both of these species are unknown, but may be described and simply unassociated because of the extreme sexual dimorphism in Atteriini.Published as part of Austin, Kyhl A. & Dombroskie, Jason J., 2020, New Combinations In Neotropical Archipini And Atteriini (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae: Tortricinae), With The Description Of A New Genus, pp. 1-11 in Proceedings of the Entomological Society of Washington 122 (1) on page 8, DOI: 10.4289/0013-8797.122.1.1In, http://zenodo.org/record/372476

    The construction of Karen Karnak: The multi-author-function

    No full text
    This thesis is situated within the comparatively recent developments of Web 2.0 and the emergence of interactive WikiMedia, and explores the mode of authorship within a Read/Write culture compared to that of a Read/Only tradition. The hypothesis of this study is that the role of the audience has become merged with the author, and as such, represents new functions and attributes, distinct from a more conventional concept of authorship, in which the roles of audience and author are more separate. Read/Write and participatory culture, as defined by this study, is focused on collaboration, and includes the influences of D.I.Y. culture, Open-Source practices and the production of text by multiple authors. Multi-authorship presents a re-thinking of several concepts which support the notion of the individual author, since the focus of multi-authorship is not on attribution and ownership of a finished text, but on the continued malleability of a text. Modes of multi-authorship, demonstrated in the use of the pseudonyms Alan Smithee and Karen Eliot, represent declarative authors whose names signify multiple origins, whilst concurrently indicating a distinct body of work. The function of these names form an important context to this study, since primary research involves the construction of an experimental mode of multi-authorship utilising WikiMedia technology and the interaction of thirty nine participants, who are invited to create a body of work under the collective pseudonym Karen Karnak. The data generated by this experiment is analysed using aspects of Michel Foucault's author-function to identify and determine power structures inherent in the WikiMedia context. The interplay of power structures, including concepts such as identity, ownership and the body of work, affect the resulting mode of authorship and contribute to the construction of Karen Karnak, suggesting further areas of research into the emerging multi-author

    <p>Watermark MCSDSS An Interactive Multi-Criteria Spatial Decision Support System for Conflict Resolution</p> <p>This release marks the alpha release of the source code for the Watermark project, a geo-spatially situated multi-user web-enabled decision support system for conflict resolution in negotiated spaces. The Watermark project is being developed internally at the Texas Advanced Computing Center of the University of Texas at Austin. The goal of the project is to provide a platform that allows users to accomplish simple data ETL (commonly ESRi shapefiles, csv and tabular data) then process, analyze and visualize their data in a persistent, shareable and publishable format for the purposes of informing decision makers and stakeholders during the negotiation of resources and resource management policies, especially as relates to common pool resources. The combination of scientific data with current standards-based web and mapping technologies results in an intuitive and informative platform that can be repurposed towards any knowledge domain to facilitate users of the system in identifying the relationships between science, social needs, and legislative mandates and the resultant impacts of changes to those factors on the situational outcome. Watermark future capabilities will also provide mechanisms to identify candidate solutions for user generated scenarios based on preferences and weighting parameters that can drive the participants in the dialog towards those best practices which align with all desired goals and outcomes.</p> <p>Live Demo</p> <p>http://watermark.encompass.tacc.utexas.edu/#!/index</p> <p>Attribution</p> <p>Project Lead and Principle Investigator: Dr. Pierce, SA Ph.D. Lead Programmer and Developer: Gentle, JN B.S.</p> <p>Citation</p> <p>Pierce, SA and Gentle, J., 2016, Watermark: Multi-Criteria Spatial Decision Support System</p&gt

    Shadowgraphy of the end-effects regime produced by clustered rockets

    No full text
    The plume produced by a cluster of two high area-ratio thrust optimized parabolic contour nozzles is visualized by way of retroreflective shadowgraphy. Both steady and transient operations of the nozzles (start-up and shut-down) were conducted in the anechoic chamber and high speed flow facility at The University of Texas at Austin. Both nozzles exhibit free shock separated flow, restricted shock separated flow and an end-effects-regime prior to flowing full. Radon transforms of the shadowgraphy images are used to identify the locations in the flow where sound waves are being generated. During these off design operations of the nozzles, most sound waves are generated by turbulence interactions with the shock cells located in the supersonic annular plume. During the end-effects-regime, this supersonic annular plume is shown to flap violently, thus providing a first principals understanding of the sources of most intense loads during engine ignition
