    Dissertação (mestrado) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina, Centro de Comunicação e Expressão, Programa de Pós-Graduação em Letras/Inglês e Literatura Correspondente, Florianópolis, 2007The aim of the present study is to analyse how issues of Albanian national identity are portrayed in Ismail Kadaré's novel Broken April (Prilli i Thyer), and how such features have been appropriated and translated onto the screen into a Northeastern Brazilian context. I depart from the premise that, even though Brazilian elements are indeed shown in the film, the non existence of the Kanun in Brazil, and the use of narrative techniques different from the ones employed in the novel render the story of the blood feuds in the film more universal than the genuinely Albanian reality depicted in the novel. In sum, the appropriation transcends the Albanian reality into a universal context, showing, at the same time, elements which are typical of the Brazilian culture.O objetivo do presente estudo é analisar como questões sobre a identidade nacional Albanesa são retratadas no romance Abril Despedaçado (Prilli i Thyer), de Ismail Kadaré, e como tais questões foram apropriadas e traduzidas para a tela num contexto Nordestino-Brasileiro. O estudo parte do princípio que, embora elementos tipicamente Brasileiros sejam mostrados no filme, a não existência do Kanun no Brasil, e o uso de técnicas narrativas diferentes das empregadas no romance ajudam a deixar a história das brigas de família no filme com um aspecto mais universal do que a realidade genuinamente Albanesa representada na romance. Em suma, a apropriação transcende a realidade Albanesa para um contexto mais universal, sem deixar de mostrar também elementos típicos da cultura Brasileira

    Variations on the Author

    “Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship

    ISO 27001:2013 is the best-known standard providing requirements for information security management systems (ISMS). An ISMS is a systematic approach to manage sensitive information through people, processes and IT systems. In a hospital, a patient\u27s individual medical record is highly private and sensitive. This study performed qualitative questionnaire based on the ISO27001:2013 policy. Seven hospitals in Malaysia were involved in this study. This study focus on the Data Center as it contains a high risk server. This study reveals the non-compliance issues among the sampled hospitals in Malaysia. The participation of the hospitals in trainings related to information security awareness and education were still not adequate due to lack of support from the top management. The Malaysian Administrative Modernisation and Management Planning Unit (MAMPU), the Ministry of Health Malaysia and the top management in hospitals in Malaysia play vital roles to educate and ensure the compliance of ISO 27001:2013

    Automatic detection and classification of leukaemia cells

    This thesis was submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy and awarded by Brunel University.Today, there is a substantial number of software and research groups that focus on the development of image processing software to extract useful information from medical images, in order to assist and improve patient diagnosis. The work presented in this thesis is centred on processing of images of blood and bone marrow smears of patients suffering from leukaemia, a common type of cancer. In general, cancer is due to aberrant gene expression, which is caused by either mutations or epigenetic changes in DNA. Poor diet and unhealthy lifestyle may trigger or contribute to these changes, although the underlying mechanism is often unknown. Importantly, many cancer types including leukaemia are curable and patient survival and treatment can be improved, subject to prompt diagnosis. In particular, this study focuses on Acute Myeloid Leukaemia (AML), which can be of eight distinct types (M0 to M7), with the main objective to develop a methodology to automatically detect and classify leukaemia cells into one of the above types. The data was collected from the Department of Haematology, Universiti Sains Malaysia, in Malaysia. Three main methods, namely Cellular Automata, Heuristic Search and classification using Neural Networks are facilitated. In the case of Cellular Automata, an improved method based on the 8-neighbourhood and rules were developed to remove noise from images and estimate the radius of the potential blast cells contained in them. The proposed methodology selects the starting points, corresponding to potential blast cells, for the subsequent seeded heuristic search. The Seeded Heuristic employs a new fitness function for blast cell detection. Furthermore, the WEKA software is utilised for classification of blast cells and hence images, into AML subtypes. As a result accuracy of 97.22% was achieved in the classification of blasts into M3 and other AML subtypes. Finally, these algorithms are integrated into an automated system for image processing. In brief, the research presented in this thesis involves the use of advanced computational techniques for processing and classification of medical images, that is, images of blood samples from patients suffering from leukaemia.The Institute of Higher Education of Malaysia and the Universiti Sains Islam Malaysia (USIM)

    No full text
    Ismail Fethi'nin Ruh ve Ahlâk'la ilgili Görüsleri isimli bu çalısmada, daha önce hakkında herhangi bir çalısmanın yapılmadıgını tespit ettigimiz Ismail Fethi'nin ruh ve ahlâkla ilgili görüsleri ele alınarak, müellifin bu görüsleri felsefe açısından degerlendirilmeye çalısılmıstır. Müellifin ruh görüsü zihin felsefesi, ahlâk görüsü ise ahlâk felsefesi çerçevesinde ele alınmıstır. Ruh ile ilgili görüslerinde Ismail Fethi, dualist bakıs açısına sahip oldugundan, onun bu noktadaki görüsleri önde gelen dualist filozoflarla karsılastırmalı olarak ele alınmıstır. Dualistik ruh anlayısının problemlerine deginilerek Ismail Fethi'nin ruh görüsünün problemleri belirlenmistir. Ayrıca ahlâk görüsünde tasavvufî bakıs açısına sahip oldugunu tespit ettigimiz müellifin ahlâk görüsü önce Osmanlı ahlâk düsüncesi içinde sonra da tasavvufî ahlâk içindeki yeri tespit edilmeye çalısılmıstır. Bu yöntemle ele aldıgımız görüslerinde müellifin bilhassa ruh konusunda kendinden önceki düsünürlerden etkilenmis oldugunu, günümüzdeki bilimsel ve felsefî verilerle yer yer ters düstügünü söyleyebiliriz. Ahlâk görüsünde ise belirli bir sistem ortaya koymaktan ziyade bireysel ahlâk konularına deginerek ruh- beden ayrımını öngören ruh görüsüne paralel, ruhun tezkiyesi konusu dısına pek çıkmamıstır. Bu itibarla çalısmamızın niteligi Ismail Fethi nezdinde yeni ve orjinal fikirler ortaya çıkarmaktan çok, bilinmeyen bir düsünürün fikirlerinin degerlendirilmesi ve düsünce dünyamıza kazandırılması olarak özetlenebilir.In this study, namely \"Ismail Fethi\'s Views on Spirit and Morality\", Ismail Fethi\'s views regarding spirit and morality, which we determined that have not been studied before, are discussed and those views of the author are attempted to be evaluated from the point of philosophy. The authors\' view of spirit is examined in the frame of mind philosophy, while his view of morality is examined in the frame of moral philosophy. Since, in his views about spirit Ismail Fethi adopts dualistic approach, his views on that subject are compared with the primary dualistic philosophers\'. The problems of dualistic spirit concept are mentioned and the problems of Ismail Fethi\'s view of spirit are pointed out. Moreover, as we identified that regarding his view of morality the author adopts sufi perspective, the position of his moral view in the Ottoman moral thought and in the sufi morality is tried to be determined. We can say that in his views, which we examined with the method depicted above, regarding his view of spirit, in particular, the author is affected from the scholars before him. We can also say that in some aspects these views contradict with the contemporary scientific and philosophic findings. About his view of morality, it can be said that rather than composing a certain system, he mentioned more on the individual morality matters. In parallel with the view of spirit which presumes spritbody distinction, he barely went beyond the matter of purification of the soul. Thus, rather than revealing Ismail Fethi\'s new and original thoughts, the character of our study can be summarized as an evaluation of the thoughts of an unknown scholar and bringing his contribution in our contemporary thought
