Appropriations of Irish drama by modern Korean nationalist theatre : a focus on the influence of Sean O’Casey in a colonial context
My thesis explores how a translated author on the periphery of the host culture’s
translated repertoire can be at once subversive and innovative on the colonial scene,
using as an example the case of Sean O’Casey in colonial Korea. It explores the
importation of Irish drama in modern Korean theatre during the colonial period and
examines the appropriations of O’Casey’s plays by a central Korean playwright, Yu
Chi-jin, in creating his own plays. Under Japanese colonial rule in the early twentieth
century, intellectuals perceived the supreme task for the Korean people to be the
recovery of national sovereignty and independence. The modern Korean theatre
movement which rose among Korean intellectuals and dramatists during the colonial
period was to play a major part in this task. The ultimate goal of this movement was
to establish a modern national theatre promoting Korean culture and educating the
people, thereby recovering national independence. As their modernised dramatic
polysystem was still "young", Korean intellectuals and dramatists who were
involved in the theatre movement had to borrow dramatic models from other
countries. One of the models they chose was Irish playwrights, especially those who
were involved in the Irish dramatic movement. They published or staged the works
of W.B. Yeats, Lord Dunsany [Edward John Moreton Drax Plunkett], Augusta
Gregory, J.M. Synge, St. J. Ervine, T.C. Murray and Sean O'Casey. Although
O'Casey was considered an important dramatist in the Irish dramatic movement, he
was a playwright on the periphery in the list of translated Irish dramatists in Korea
due to the colonisers’ censorship. However, he remained as a subversive and
innovative playwright on the colonial scene by virtue of being appropriated by Yu
Chi-jin who used O’Casey’s plays as models when creating his own works. In
discussing the subject matter of my thesis, I use Even Zohar’s polysystems theory as
a starting point in looking at ideological issues surrounding translation and extend
the discussion to offer a postcolonial perspective. While most translation in a
colonial context was considered as "an expression of the cultural power of the
colonisers," my thesis shifts the focus to translation as an expression of the cultural
power of the colonised. I explore how the colonised uses another colonised culture to
subvert the colonisers’ power
Analysis of the Accuracy of PLC Control Systems in Conveyor Automation For Goods Distribution at PT Jaya Sentra Teknindo
Otomatisasi sistem conveyor merupakan bagian krusial dalam mendukung efisiensi proses distribusi logistik, terutama pada perusahaan berskala menengah hingga besar seperti PT Jaya Sentra Teknindo. Salah satu teknologi utama yang digunakan dalam sistem ini adalah Programmable Logic Controller (PLC), yang berfungsi sebagai pusat kendali dalam mengatur pergerakan barang secara tepat dan terprogram. Didalam Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis ketepatan sistem kendali PLC dalam pengoperasian conveyor barang, baik dari aspek waktu, posisi berhenti, maupun sinkronisasi antar sensor dan aktuator. Metodologi yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah pendekatan eksperimental dengan pengujian langsung pada sistem conveyor di lapangan. Data dikumpulkan melalui pengamatan, pengukuran posisi akhir barang, waktu tempuh conveyor, serta jumlah deviasi terhadap parameter yang telah diprogram pada PLC. Perangkat lunak pemrograman ladder diagram digunakan untuk mensimulasikan dan memvalidasi logika kontrol, sedangkan stopwatch digital dan sensor counter digunakan untuk mengukur ketepatan waktu dan respons sistem. Hasil pengujian menunjukkan bahwa sistem kendali PLC memiliki tingkat akurasi tinggi, dengan deviasi posisi rata-rata di bawah 1,5 cm dan toleransi waktu di bawah ±0,8 detik dari setpoint yang ditentukan. Selain itu, tingkat kesalahan deteksi sensor relatif rendah dan sistem mampu bekerja stabil pada beban kerja operasional normal. Dengan demikian, dapat disimpulkan bahwa sistem kendali berbasis PLC yang diterapkan pada conveyor distribusi di PT Jaya Sentra Teknindo memiliki ketepatan yang sangat baik dan dapat menunjang efisiensi logistik secara signifikan

Distributed human computation framework for linked data co-reference resolution
Distributed Human Computation (DHC) is a technique used to solve computational problems by incorporating the collaborative effort of a large number of humans. It is also a solution to AI-complete problems such as natural language processing. The Semantic Web with its root in AI is envisioned to be a decentralised world-wide information space for sharing machine-readable data with minimal integration costs. There are many research problems in the Semantic Web that are considered as AI-complete problems. An example is co-reference resolution, which involves determining whether different URIs refer to the same entity. This is considered to be a significant hurdle to overcome in the realisation of large-scale Semantic Web applications. In this paper, we propose a framework for building a DHC system on top of the Linked Data Cloud to solve various computational problems. To demonstrate the concept, we are focusing on handling the co-reference resolution in the Semantic Web when integrating distributed datasets. The traditional way to solve this problem is to design machine-learning algorithms. However, they are often computationally expensive, error-prone and do not scale. We designed a DHC system named iamResearcher, which solves the scientific publication author identity co-reference problem when integrating distributed bibliographic datasets. In our system, we aggregated 6 million bibliographic data from various publication repositories. Users can sign up to the system to audit and align their own publications, thus solving the co-reference problem in a distributed manner. The aggregated results are published to the Linked Data Cloud
Intersystem soft handover for converged DVB-H and UMTS networks
Digital video broadcasting for handhelds (DVB-H) is the standard for broadcasting Internet Protocol (IP) data services to mobile portable devices. To provide interactive services for DVB-H, the Universal Mobile Telecommunications System (UMTS) can be used as a terrestrial interaction channel for the unidirectional DVB-H network. The converged DVB-H and UMTS network can be used to address the congestion problems due to the limited multimedia channel accesses of the UMTS network. In the converged network, intersystem soft handover between DVB-H and UMTS is needed for an optimum radio resource allocation, which reduces network operation cost while providing the required quality of service. This paper deals with the intersystem soft handover between DVB-H and UMTS in such a converged network. The converged network structure is presented. A novel soft handover scheme is proposed and evaluated. After considering the network operation cost, the performance tradeoff between the network quality of service and the network operation cost for the intersystem soft handover in the converged network is modeled using a stochastic tree and analyzed using a numerical simulation. The results show that the proposed algorithm is feasible and has the potential to be used for implementation in the real environment
