No full textÓrgano de boca de procedencia china inventado cerca del siglo III A. C.1) Procedencia: China
2) Estado de conservación: Bueno
3) Uso (Características performáticas): La invención del Sheng es atribuida al soberano chino Nyú-Kwa (ca. 2800 A.C.). Se lo menciona desde el Siglo XII A.C. aunque no existen representaciones hasta el siglo VI de nuestra era. Hay diferentes variedades que se distinguen por su tamaño y por el número y función de los tubos. El sheng se ejecuta sosteniendo el recipiente con las palmas de ambas manos mientras se sopla o aspira por el pico y se obturan simultáneamente varios de los orificios de digitación. En el legajo se menciona que el instrumento es la representación simbólica de un “ave fénix”, aunque no se menciona bibliografía respaldatoria y llama la atención la mención al mito greco-romano en este otro contexto cultural (lo cual deja abierto el interrogante para futuras indagaciones de posibles intercambios y/o reinterpretaciones).

Adaptive Bayesian Space-Time Equalisation for Multiple Receive-Antenna Assisted Single-Input Multiple-Output Systems
No full textThis contribution considers nonlinear space–time equalisation (STE) for multiple receive-antenna induced single-input multipleoutput (SIMO) systems. By exploiting the inherent symmetry of the underlying optimal Bayesian STE solution, a novel symmetric radial basis function (RBF) based STE scheme is proposed, which is capable of approaching the optimal Bayesian equalisation performance. Adaptive implementation of this symmetric RBF (SRBF) based STE can be achieved conveniently by estimating the SIMO channels using the least mean square channel estimator and computing the optimal RBF centres from the resulting SIMO channel matrix estimate. Simulation results also demonstrate that the performance of this SRBF based STE is robust with respect to the choice of the RBF variance value. The proposed adaptive solution is then extended to the space–time decision feedback equalisation (ST-DFE) structure
Tschumi, Lissitzky, Li-Sheng y el Sindicato Audiovisual: referencias para la comunicación arquitectónica
No full textMedios como el dibujo, técnicas artísticas y cinematográficas se han utilizado en Arquitectura para representar el espacio arquitectónico y su multiplicidad. Éstos han permitido, en algunos casos, comunicar intenciones de diseño y en otros, comprender la complejidad del espacio a través de herramientas no convencionales en las que se integran dimensiones como espacio, tiempo y ficción.
“Las transcripciones de Manhattan” de Tschumi, en las que se representa el espacio y los acontecimientos a través del dibujo; “sobre dos cuadrados” de El Lissitzky, en el que se relacionan dibujo, color y texto; los diagramas de la superposición de montañas de la pintura de Li-Sheng (Rivers, 1922) que vinculan espacio y secuencia y los documentales de la Bienal de Arquitectura de Quito 2020 (BAQ, 2020) en los que ficción, narrativa y tiempo se encuentran con espacios construidos emblemáticos, sirven de ejemplos gráficos y multimedia para representar y comunicar ideas sobre el espacio arquitectónico usando varios medios.
El objetivo de esta ponencia es presentar el material de diseño y representación arquitectónica realizado en varios formatos por los estudiantes en el ejercicio docente de los talleres formativos de Dibujo Arquitectónico y Diseño Básico de la Universidad Indoamérica en la ciudad de Ambato en Ecuador durante el período B22, entre los meses de septiembre del 2022 y abril del 2023; y el período A23, entre abril y agosto del 2023. De esta experiencia se desprende un análisis fotográfico de las nuevas y tradicionales formas de comunicación presentes en las narraciones, representaciones tridimensionales, dibujos axonométricos y secuencias en video realizados en base a los trabajos de Tschumi, El Lissitzky, Li-Sheng y el Sindicato Audiovisual

Error resilient techniques for storage elements of low power design
No full textOver two decades of research has led to numerous low-power design techniques being reported. Two popular techniques are supply voltage scaling and power gating. This thesis studies the impact of these two design techniques on the reliability of embedded processor registers and memory systems in the presence of transient faults; and with the aim to develop and validate efficient mitigation techniques to improve reliability with small cost of energy consumption, performance and area overhead. This thesis presents three original contributions. The first contribution presents a technique for improving the reliability of embedded processors. A key feature of the technique is low cost, which is achieved through reuse of the scan chain for state monitoring, and it is effective because it can correct single and multiple bit errors through hardware and software respectively. To validate the technique, ARMR Cortex TM -M0 embedded microprocessor is implemented in FPGA and further synthesised using 65-nm technology to quantify the cost in terms of area, latency and energy. It is shown that the presented technique has a small area overhead (8.6%) with less than 4% worst-case increase in critical path. The second contribution demonstrates that state integrity of flip-flops is sensitive to process, voltage and temperature (PVT) variation through measurements from 82 test chips. A PVT-aware state protection technique is presented to ensure state integrity of flip-flops while achieving maximum leakage savings. The technique consists of characterisation algorithm and employs horizontal and vertical parity for error detection and correction. Silicon results show that flip-flops state integrity is preserved while achieving up to 17.6% reduction in retention voltage across 82-dies. Embedded processors memory systems are susceptible to transient errors and blanket protection of every part of memory system through ECC is not cost effective. The final contribution addresses the reliability of embedded processor memory systems and describes an architectural simulation-based framework for joint optimisation of reliability, energy consumption and performance. Accurate estimation of memory reliability with targeted protection is proposed to identify and protect the most vulnerable part of the memory system to minimise protection cost. Furthermore, L1-cache resizing together with voltage and frequency scaling is proposed for further energy savings while maintaining performance and reliability. The contributions presented are supported by detailed analyses using state-of-the-art design automation tools, in-house software tools and validated using FPGA and silicon implementation of commercial low power embedded processor

An efficient predistorter design for compensating nonlinear memory high power amplifier
No full textThis contribution applies digital predistorter to compensate distortions caused by memory high power amplifiers (HPAs) which exhibit true output saturation characteristics. Particle swarm optimization is first implemented to identify the Wiener HPA’s parameters. The estimated Wiener HPA model is then directly used to design the predistorter. The proposed digital predistorter solution is attractive owing to its low on-line computational complexity, small memory units required and simple VLSI hardware structure implementation. Moreover, the designed predistorter is capable of successfully compensating serious nonlinear distortions and memory effects caused by the memory HPA operating in the output saturation region. Simulation results obtained are presented to demonstrate the effectiveness of this novel digital predistorter design
"Yi zhuan" "sheng sheng" si xiang yan jiu =: On the Idea of shengsheng in the commentaries of Yi
No full textPh.D.The thesis aims to investigate the idea of Shengsheng (continuous creation) in the Commentaries of Yi and its development in the history of Confucian philosophy. The investigation consists of four parts. The first part starts by discussing the literal meaning of the character Sheng in the oracle bone script and the Chinese bronze inscriptions. It then examines the idea of Shengsheng in the ancient Chinese classics, especially its textual context in the Commentaries of Yi . Accordingly, we will answer the following questions one by one: What is Shengsheng ? How can it actualize? How is the idea adopted by other Pre Qin thoughts? The second part focuses on the understanding of the idea in Han Confucianism. It takes Zhouyi Qianzhaodu and the Zheng Xuan interpretation as illustrative examples. Here we see how another idea Qi has been introduced to interpret Sheng sheng as the origin and process of actualization in both the natural world and human community. The third part moves to the development of the idea in Northern Song Confucianism and explores how the Confucian scholars at that time further elaborated the idea as an essential of moral metaphysics. The final part studies the thought of Xiong Shili to show how Xiong draws from Buddhism and Confucian philosophy to develop a critical inquiry into the idea and hence argues its modern relevance.本文以《易傳》「生生」觀念為研究對象。全文分為四部分，第一部分由考察甲骨、金文中「生」字之原義開始，依次分析並討論了早期文獻中所見之「生生」觀念及《易傳》所論「生生」之本義，包括何為《易傳》所論之「生生」，據《易傳》之說 ，「 生生」將何以實現，以及《易傳》「生生」觀念與先秦諸子思想之關係。第二部分通過以《周易乾鑿度》為切入點，考察了經學時代下學者們對《易傳》「生生」觀念的最有代表性的若干理解，包括據《乾鑿度》之理解 ，「 生生」當如何實現於天地萬物及人類社會之中，以及鄭康成所作之《乾鑿度注》之中包含的對「生生」 所以實現之根本與歷程的另一種思考。第三部分通過將北宋五子的詮釋作為典範，考察了理學思維下《易傳》「生生」觀念之詮釋理論的一般理論框架，包括理學思維下的「生生」之本質及「生生」之道德義之豁顯。第四部分則通過將熊十力《新唯識論（語體文本）》中關於《易傳》「生生」觀之詮釋作為代表，考察了現代哲學視域下的《易傳》「生生」觀念。竇晨光."2019年8月".Parallel title from added title page.Thesis Ph.D. Chinese University of Hong Kong 2019.Includes bibliographical references (leaves 334-340).Abstracts in Chinese and English.Title from PDF title page (viewed on February 23, 2022).Dou Chenguang
A Study of Chin Sheng-Tan\ue2s Hermeneutics on Du Fu's Poetics
No full textThe thesis mainly discusses the hermeneutic system on Du Fu\ue2s poetics, which was established after close analysis of Du Fu\ue2s poetry by a literary critic Chin Sheng-Tang (the end of the Ming and beginning of the Qing dynasties).Among all Tang poets Chin Sheng-Tang admired Du Fu the most for his poetics of seven line stanzas, which was viewed by Chin Sheng-Tang as an epitome of high aesthetical value and poetical canon. The critic proposed a method of decompositional analysis for studying Du Fu\ue2s poetry: he saw the interconnection between the title of the poem and it\ue2s content, and then decomposed the poem into small pieces, conducting close reading, so that the poem was seen as having three level structure from bigger to smaller \ue2the level of passages, sentences and characters\ue2.
First, we start with looking at \ue2other interpretation\ue2 from the describing trend of hermeneutics on Du Fu\ue2s poetics prevailing during that period of time, pointing out what was the main opinion of the literary critics, and comparing it with the one of Chin Sheng-Tang\ue2s, and looking at his status among the circles of literary critics.
Then we discuss the Chin Sheng-Tang \ue2s \ue2self interpretation\ue2 , explaining what kind of reader and critic he was. After that we provide the review of poetry reading methods and horizon in literary criticism, explaining how to use the method in literary analysis. After Chin Sheng-Tang\ue2s method of literary criticism becomes clear to us, we look how his caesura method is used to analyze structure of Du Fu\ue2s poetry. Through the caesura analysis we use reader\ue2s, author\ue2s and literary works point of view to find out whether this method is appropriate and whether it can reveal the spirit of that age or is it simply an over-reading. In the end we provide the conclusion about the effectiveness of the hermeneutic system, proposed by Chin Sheng-Tang
