    Grace in Spoofax

    No full text
    Grace is a programming language that aims to be an example of a contemporary object-oriented language, to be used for teaching university level students. The language specification of Grace is informal, and its various implementations are difficult to comprehend and change. Spoofax Grace is an implementation of the Grace programming language, meant to serve both as a reference implementation, but also a specification, that can be easily read, understood and changed. Spoofax Grace is implemented using the Spoofax language workbench, providing a declarative grammar, program transformations and dynamic semantics. From these specifications a language interpreter is generated that can execute Grace programs. The system covers the core aspects of Grace, yet a number of language features remain unimplemented. The implementation can be correlated to the informal Grace specification, and can be changed or extended at will.Electrical Engineering, Mathematics and Computer ScienceSoftware TechnologyProgramming Language

    Grace Aguilar’s historical romances

    No full text
    PhDMy dissertation looks critically at Grace Aguilar’s historical romance novels and short stories, and investigates English writers’ uses of history in early- to mid-nineteenth century fiction. Shifting the current critical emphasis on Aguilar’s Jewish texts, I have analyzed the ways in which Aguilar revises the genres of the national tale, the gothic romance, and the medieval romance in order to demonstrate her participation in the construction of nineteenth-century domestic values. In Chapter One, I introduce to critical debate Aguilar’s juvenilia, relying on unpublished manuscripts and novels published only in the twentieth century to establish the origins of Aguilar’s interest in history and historical writing. Locating Aguilar’s narrative style in the early nineteenth-century national tale, I show that as a child Aguilar envisioned the English and Scottish nations as a family, making domesticity both a private and a public—a female and a male—value. Chapter Two focuses on Aguilar’s use of history to express nineteenth-century domestic ideals in her version of the gothic romance. Deploying the setting of the Catholic Inquisition in Spain and Portugal, Aguilar writes gothic tales that unite Jewish and Protestant gender values. She makes heroic the Jewish female martyr to suggest not only that nineteenth-century Protestants and Jews share similar domestic principles, but also that Jewish women could be seen as ideal models for Protestant women. Finally, in Chapter Three I explore Aguilar’s participation in the nineteenth-century medievalist tradition by reflecting on her revision of nineteenth-century literary idealizations of the Middle Ages. In these short stories, Aguilar fictionalizes the sixteenth-century European chivalric ethos, looking critically at the role of women in court society at the end of the Middle Ages. Deploying the tropes prevalent in popular nineteenth-century anti-medievalist fiction, Aguilar debunks celebrations of the Middle Ages by showing how chivalry is antagonistic to nineteenth-century domesticity

    A Case Study: Consumer Behavior of Frozen Fruit in terms of Preferences and Purchasing Power

    No full text
    Frozen food or what is known as frozen food is the result of food preservation methods that are carried out by lowering the temperature to the freezing point, this aims to slow down the spoilage process. One published study found that frozen fruit was, in some cases, more nutritious. Of course, this is suitable when conditioned during a pandemic like today, because frozen fruit is more durable, of course, it can minimize the frequency of people going out to buy stock. But on the other hand, apart from the price of frozen fruit which tends to be more expensive, there is a paradigm in the community that fresh fruit is healthier than frozen fruit. Although it is undeniable that fresh ingredients have a high amount of nutrients at harvest, the nutrients will quickly break down when the food is picked, packaged, and displayed. These nutrients will break down even more when placed in the refrigerator. This research is a qualitative research with a case study design. A total of 23 informants as end consumers really helped the completion of this research. The results of this study found that the paradigm in society that fresh fruit is healthier than frozen fruit is still rolling down and down, on the other hand factors such as price are also another cause. Keywords: Case Study, Consumer Behavior, Consumption, Frozen Fruit, Preference

    Food producers have a new challenge in this era, where producers are challenged to be able to offer a variety of products if they still want to exist in the midst of fierce competition. The phenomenon also seems clear that many brands collaborate and then launch new products. One of them is that some time ago Indofood released its Indomie Hype Abis Goreng Rasa Chitato Sapi Panggang.Qualitative research with case study design gets answers to existing research problems after successfully conducting data processing from 27 informants who meet the criteria. The answer to research issue 1 is that Indomie's purchase intention and brand equity Indomie rasa Chitato Sapi Panggang resulting from co-branding is very good from the viewpoint of the community. Also answered research problem 2 is that the co-branding of the two well-known brands can be a guarantee of new products that are sure to succeed in the market. The difference lies in the reason, namely: succeed in the market for a long period of time or just a trend, because a new thing will always attract attention either through purchase intention or brand equity. But the survival time in the market must not be spared
