Control and physical intelligence
No full textChapter 5 focuses on biological and synthetic control/intelligence. This chapter of the 2nd edition includes discussion of deep learning, do-it-yourself (DIY) robotic projects, popular microcontrollers, contributed by Marko Popovic as well as material contributed by new co-author Mihailo Lazarevic on fractional PID control approach. All these are quite relevant in the context of biomechatronics research

Five Years of Constitutional Jurisprudence in Bosnia and Herzegovina: A First Balance. EDAP 7/2004
No full textThe article reflects the experiences of the author after having served as one of the three international judges of the Constitutional Court of BiH from 1997 to 2002. Based on the relevant case-law of the Constitutional Court it gives a basic overview of the constitutional structure of BiH and analyses the position of the Court vis-à-vis other institutions established under the Dayton-Agreement and the powers of judicial review and human rights protection based on its appellate jurisdiction. Moreover means of interpretation and the elements of constitutional doctrine elaborated through case-law as well as organisational and procedural matters such as the role of dissenting opinions are discussed. In conclusion the article reflects the role of the Constitutional Court in transition from an ethnically divided and war-torn society to democracy and the effective protection of human and minority rights
EXAMPLE OF DIFFERENT DOUBLE STRESS IN SPLIT’S CHAKAVIAN (VERNACULAR) FROM THE FIRST HALF OF 20th CENTURY
No full textThe author compares and studies similar texts, those of Marko Uvodić and of Ivan Kovačić, the writers of two successive generations from the first half of the 19th century, particularly their prosody (the double different accent, the so-called »Doppelakzent«), finding that both texts differ only slightly in prosody, but also in other grammatical categories, especially in lexis
Training to intergenerational dialogue and solidarity
No full textIntergenerationality is a great challenge for all developed countries since the elderly population is growing, both in terms of their age and of their percentage presence in our societies. The solidarity between different generations is becoming so important that we can consider intergenerational dialogue a fundamental goal for us to aim at, developing those skills that allow us to act properly as citizens in the "ageing societies". Any context and activity with an educational purpose (formal or not formal) should deal with intergenerational dialogue.
This paper first suggests some reflections on the main theoretical issues that put intergenerationality at the core of the educational debate on elderly education. Once the theoretical background has been outlined, it presents an analysis of some educational contexts and activities aimed at developing intergenerational activities. These experiences involved elderly people together with learners from other generations. The experiences that have been carried out highlighted that some contents and teaching methodologies appear to be more effective to meet the needs of elderly and young learners and to promote the dialogue between them. In particular, the methods involving significant tasks and stimulating both cognition and perception fostered the dialogue between the different generations and allowed each learner to get more involved in the process. These experiences can help to define some appropriate teaching and learning strategies for promoting intergenerational dialogue and solidarity
Uloga boje u gradnji glazbenog oblika u odabranim djelima Marka Ruždjaka / Sound Spaces: The Role of Timbre in Building Musical Form Within a Selection of Marko Ruždjak's Work
No full textSome of the most successful works in the opus of Marko Ruždjak would have been impossible to conceive without the clarinet, the composer’s favourite instrument, as well as wit- hout the guitar, percussion, and voice (soprano, baritone or choir). The author researches how the composer’s choice of instrumental timbres and the voicing of the instruments as solo part or part of a larger sound aggregates (or units) is guided by a singular idea, which can be defi- ned as sound space. The timbre in this context is not conceived just as an element of a two- dimensional unit (building contrasts or overflowing and fusion in the temporal flow), rather it participates in the building of the spatial (and emotional) perspective. It contributes to a building of a specific musical form and expression. Ruždjak’s works have been analyzed through the categories that are linked to the Klangkomposition aesthetics of the Sixties. In the first part of the text, the formal function of individual parameters such as dynamic and regi- ster in the works Passamezzo, Tentatio, Canto peregrino, Versus, Ricercar is analyzed. In the se- cond part of the text, the analysis of Odrazi, Andantino, Notturno is developed through the more complex dimensions such as "static immobile surfaces", "surfaces in movement", "globally static surfaces, flecked with internal movement". They have been deduced from the published and unpublished texts by Györgi Ligeti. The theoretical background for the analysis of the sound's formal functions in the works of Ruždjak is part of the Klangkomposition's aesthetic. Together with the analysis of harmonic and motivic dimensions of the composer's language, they conduct to the possibility of a deeper understanding of the synthesis between various stylistic trajectories that are characteristic for the musical path of Marko Ruždjak
