A Grammar of Savosavo
No full textWegener C. A Grammar of Savosavo. Mouton Grammar Library. Vol 61. Berlin, New York: Mouton de Gruyter; 2012.This is the first comprehensive description of Savosavo, a non-Austronesian (Papuan) language spoken by approximately 2,500 speakers on Savo Island, Solomon Islands. Based on primary field data recorded by the author, it provides an overview of all levels of grammar. In addition, a full chapter is dedicated to nominalization of verbs by means of one particular suffix, which occur in a number of constructions ranging from lexical to syntactic nominalization. The appendix provides glossed example texts and a list of lexemes

Regional aspects of decision-making support for rural development in Poland
No full textMeasures for rural development should be adapted to the specific regional conditions and national programs should allow for different regional priorities. However, decision-making for policy measures often takes place under special conditions with many concerned actors, unstructured decision problems and time pressure. These conditions, decision-makers in administrations and institutions are faced with, make the formation of policy-measures for rural development a complex matter. Thus, there is the question arising how decision-makers can be supported in setting priorities for allocating budgets for policy measures among regions. Recently, multi criteria decision-making approaches are discussed to tackle these kinds of decision problems. We show exemplarily for the Polish program of rural development, how decision-making could be supported using a multi-objective programming approach. Different preferences of actors can be considered explicitly by visualizing “trade-offs” and an interactive use of the approach. For example, a political "equity" objective is implemented as a constraint in the programming approach, restricting the budget differences between regions to a defined level. By a parameterization of the bound for budget differences, the "trade-off" between three objectives is displayed and evaluated. Using the exemplary programming approach, it is shown that the objective values of the two main objectives of the PROW decline, when the budget differences between regions are restricted for pursuing a political "equity" objective.Regional Budgeting, Interactive Decision-making support, Multi-objective Programming (MOP), Community/Rural/Urban Development,

Les Delassements D\u27Eros : sexuality and gender identity in Gerda Wegener\u27s erotic aquarelles
No full textThis thesis examines the representations of sexuality and gender identity in Gerda Wegener\u27s erotic illustrations in Les Delassements D\u27Eros: Douze Sonnets Lascifs ( The Amusements of Eros: Twelve Lustful Sonnets ). In 1925, Gerda Wegener, a Danish artist, collaborated with Louis Perceau, a French poet and connoisseur of erotica, to illustrate a book of erotic poetry known as Les Delassements D\u27Eros. Her illustrations consist of twelve watercolors, called aquarelles, with female-female sex as well as other sexual mythological and carnival imagery. For many years, both the author and the artist were unknown because the book was published anonymously due to its erotic content. The popular female model in her artworks was her husband, Einar, who in 1930 underwent the first successful sex reassignment surgery to identify as a woman. Through the inclusion of Einar as her female model in her illustrations as well as female-female sex, Gerda pushes and blurs the boundaries of gender and sexuality during the early twentieth century in Paris. Her works explore the fashioning of identity and the collapse of cultural barriers, and express a passion for women and beauty, all of which are still relevant today
Optimal Ordered Binary Decision Diagrams for Tree-like Circuits
No full textMany Boolean functions have short representations by OBDDs (ordered binary decision diagrams), if appropriate variable orderings are used. For tree-like circuits which may contain EXOR-gates it is proved that some depth first traversal leads to an optimal variable ordering. Moreover, an optimal variable ordering and the resulting OBDD can be computed in time linear in the number of variables and the size of the OBDD, respectively. Upper and lower bounds on the OBDD size of the functions representable by tree-like circuits are derived. For, e. g., 1024 inputs we show that all tree-like circuits have OBDDs of size at 5349 and we give an example of a tree-like circuit requiring an OBDD of size 5152. Index Terms Ordered binary decision diagram, efficient algorithms, Boolean function, variable ordering, tree-like circuit.

A routine design strategy to change organisational processes in the front end of radical innovation
No full textFor technology firms like Barco, radical innovation a way to escape intense competition, but also crucial for long-term survival as they provide the foundations on which future generations of products are created (McDermott & O’Connor, 2002; Sandberg & Aarikk-Stenroos, 2014). However, a required mature radical innovation capability in the front end of the process was lacking (O’Connor & DeMartino, 2006). Therefore, they have to change their internal processes and organisational routines that are regarded as the building blocks for this organisational capability (Junginger, 2008; Salvato & Rerup, 2011). Understanding organisational change is one of the great endeavours of many researchers and management consultants in the field of organisation design. A way to understand organisational change is by looking at organisational routines (Becker, 2005). Organisational routines are important to organisational change, but easier to study (Feldman & Pentland, 2003). However, an understanding how routines are designed or come to life is still a key question in the field of organisation design (Howard-Grenvile, 2005; Wegener et al., 2019). The approach of many managers and consultants of carefully designing PowerPoints and checklists while hoping for routines to change is a mistake (Pentland & Feldman, 2008). This leads to the following research question: How to design an organisational routine that develops a radical innovation capability within a technology firm?To answer this question and to provide organisation designers or organisational researchers empirical insights on how to design a routine in a performative way I developed and executed a routine design strategy. This strategy is based on existing routine design literature (Pentland & Feldman, 2008) and the double diamond approach (Design Council, 2005).This study shows that using a routine design strategy consisting of three interdependent phases are critical to routine design. First, emphasize with routine actors, conduct activities to discover and define the challenges and needs the actors face in their patterns of action. Second, lock in desired performance, prototype in collaboration with the routine actors the desired performances and lock them in a physical artefact. Third, build the ostensive, perform the designed performances in design experiments within a reflective and experimental space to practice the routine in safe but realistic boundaries.Strategic Product Desig
Reflection factorizations and quasi-Coxeter elements
No full textWegener P, Yahiatene S. Reflection factorizations and quasi-Coxeter elements. Journal of Combinatorial Algebra. 2023;7(1):127-157.We investigate the so-called dual Matsumoto property or Hurwitz action in finite, affine and arbitrary Coxeter groups. In particular, we want to investigate how to reduce reflec-tion factorizations and how two reflection factorizations of the same element are related to each other. We are motivated by the dual approach to Coxeter groups proposed by Bessis (2003) and the question whether there is an analogue of the well-known Matsumoto property for reflection factorizations. Our aim is a substantial understanding of the Hurwitz action. We therefore reprove uniformly results of Lewis-Reiner as well as Baumeister-Gobet-Roberts and the first author on the Hurwitz action in finite and affine Coxeter groups. Further we show that in an arbitrary Coxeter group all reduced reflection factorizations of the same element appear in the same Hurwitz orbit after a suitable extension by simple reflections.As parabolic quasi-Coxeter elements play an outstanding role in the study of the Hurwitz action, we aim to characterize these elements. We provide a characterization of maximal para-bolic quasi-Coxeter elements in arbitrary Coxeter groups as well as a characterization of all parabolic quasi-Coxeter elements in affine Coxeter groups
