2012/2013 Budget Highlights The FY 2012/13 budget was prepared with a continuing commitment to the provision of quality services to our residents in a fiscally responsible way. The approach that was taken in preparing this budget includes a mix of ongoing and one-time budget adjustments that result in a balanced budget. This strategy sought to sustain core city services as defined by City Council strategic goals, but doing so within available resources. In developing the FY 2012/13 budget, the City focused on five (5) key areas: • Public Safety • Innovations with impact • Technological opportunities to increase productivity and quality of service • Economic investment

    State of California Department of Technology Stage 1 Business Analysis Preparation Instructions Version 2.5 Statewide Information Management Manual – Section 19A.1 July 2021 INTRODUCTION TO THE STAGE 1 BUSINESS ANALYSIS Overview Statewide Information Management Manual (SIMM) Section 19A, Stage 1 Business Analysis, is the first stage of the information technology (IT) Project Approval Lifecycle and provides a basis for project management, program management, executive management, and state-level control agencies to understand and agree on business problems or opportunities, and the objectives to address them. Additionally, the Stage 1 Business Analyses are used to generate the Conceptually Approved IT Project Proposals Report each quarter, which represents the Executive Branch's plan for IT investments in support of the California IT Strategic Plan. The Stage 1 Business Analysis instructions are designed to help State of California agencies/state entities1 meet the California Department of Technology (CDT) IT project proposal documentation requirements. Clarifications Non-affiliated state entities (state entities not governed by agencies) are required to submit a Stage 1 Business Analysis for all proposals, regardless of delegated cost thresholds. Agency-affiliated state entities are not required to submit Stage 1 Business Analyses for Stage 1 Business Analyses that have been approved by the agency as delegated. Project approval reporting requirements are initially determined as part of the Stage 1 Business Analysis but may change as the proposal progresses though the Project Approval Lifecycle. Agency Chief Information Officers (AIOs) have been delegated CDT approval authority for Stage 1 Business Analyses prepared by agency-affiliated state entities. Stage 1 Business Analyses prepared by non-affiliated state entities must be approved by the CDT prior to conducting and submitting a Stage 2 Alternatives Analysis.

    TESL: A Model with Metric Time for Modeling and Simulation Hai Nguyen Van Université Paris-Saclay, CNRS, LRI, Orsay, France https://perso.crans.org/nguyen-van Frédéric Boulanger Université Paris-Saclay, CNRS, LRI, CentraleSupélec, Orsay, France [email protected] Burkhart Wolff Université Paris-Saclay, CNRS, LRI, Orsay, France burkhart.wolff@lri.fr Abstract Real-time and distributed systems are increasingly finding their way into critical embedded systems. On one side, computations need to be achieved within specific time constraints. On the other side, computations may be spread among various units which are not necessarily sharing a global clock. Our study is focused on a specification language – named TESL – used for coordinating concurrent models with timed constraints. We explore various questions related to time when modeling systems, and aim at showing that TESL can be introduced as a reasonable balance of expressiveness and decidability to tackle issues in complex systems. This paper introduces (1) an overview of the TESL language and its main properties (polychrony, stutter-invariance, coinduction for simulation), (2) extensions to the language and their applications. 2012 ACM Subject Classification Theory of computation → Timed and hybrid models Keywords and phrases Timed Systems, Semantics, Models, Simulation Digital Object Identifier 10.4230/LIPIcs.TIME.2020.15 Supplementary Material Artifacts and source code available at github.com/heron-solver/heron. 1 Introduction Designing and modeling systems nowadays still raise open problems. A very expressive language or framework can be useful to model a complex system where events are not trivially interleaved. On the opposite, an excessively expressive language is the reason for prohibitive slow-downs or even undecidability.

  • Monadology, Information, and Physics Part 2: Space and Time
    ! Monadology, Information, and Physics! Part 2: Space and Time! ! Soshichi Uchii! (Kyoto University, Emeritus)! ! Abstract! ! In Part 2, drawing on the results of Part 1, I will present my own interpretation of Leibniz’s philosophy of space and time. As regards Leibniz’s theory of geometry (Analysis Situs) and space, De Risi’s excellent work appeared in 2007, so I will depend on this work. However, he does not deal with Leibniz’s view on time, and moreover, he seems to misunderstand the essential part of Leibniz’s view on time. Therefore I will begin with Richard Arthur’s paper (1985), and J. A. Cover’s improvement (1997). Despite some valuable insights contained in their papers, I have to conclude their attempts fail in one way or another, because they disregard the order of state-transition of a monad, which is, on my view, one of the essential features of the monads. By reexamining Leibniz’s important text Initia Rerum (1715), I arrived at the following interpretation. (1) Since the realm of monads is timeless, the order of state-transition of a monad provides only the basis of time in phenomena. (2) What Leibniz calls “simultaneity” should be understood as a unique 1- to-1 correspondence of the states of different monads. (3) With this understanding, whatever is correct in Arthur’s and Cover’s interpretation can be reproduced in my interpretation. On this basis, (4) we can introduce a metric of time based on congruence of duration. (5) Leibniz connected time with space in Initia Rerum by means of motion, and introduced the notion of path (which is spatial) of a moving point; thus the congruence of duration can be reduced to congruence of distance.

DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE NATIONAL BUREAU OF STANDARDS A NOTE CONCERNING THE EFFECT OF GRAVITY ON AN ATOMIC CLOCK George E. Hudson Key words: Gravitational effects on clocks, atomic clocks, proper time, coordinate time, spacetime coordinates The cesium atoms in a beam tube are in free fall (except for magnetic fields). Since the general theory of relativity postulates (and predicts) that effects of external gravitational fields on physical systems can be completely eliminated in a sufficiently small spacetime neighbor - hood, by allowing them to fall freely, the frequency spacing between the energy levels of the atoms will be unaffected (to a vdry high order) by the gravitational potential, or its gradient, the field.

  • A Class Period on Spacetime-Smart 3-Vectors with Familiar Approximates Matt Wentzel-Long1, A) and P
    A class period on spacetime-smart 3-vectors with familiar approximates Matt Wentzel-Long1, a) and P. Fraundorf1, b) Physics & Astronomy/Center for Nanoscience, U. Missouri-StL (63121), St. Louis, MO, USA (Dated: 3 July 2019) Introductory physics students have Newton's laws drilled into their minds, but historically questions related to relativistic motion and accelerated frames have been avoided. With help from the metric equation, these 3- vector laws can be extended into the relativistic regime as long as one sticks with only one reference frame (to define position plus simultaneity), and considers something students are already quite familiar with, namely: motion using map-frame yardsticks as a function of time on clocks of the moving-object. The question here is: How may one class period in an intro-physics class, e.g. as a preview before kinematics or later during a day on relativity-related material, be used to put the material we teach into a spacetime-smart context?

We seek studies that engage theory without losing touch with history and work historically without falling into uncritical positivism. FlashPoints aims for a broad audience within the humanities and the social sciences concerned with moments of cultural emergence and transformation. In a Benjaminian mode, FlashPoints is interested in how literature contributes to forming new constellations of culture and history and in how such formations function critically and politically in the present.

  • The Speed of Light: Fundamental Constants to a Metric System
    Earth/matriX SCIENCE IN ANCIENT ARTWORK AND SCIENCE TODAY Metric Time and Non-Metric Time: The Speed of Light Conversion Factor 1.157407407 for Translating CODATA Fundamental Constants to a Metric System Charles William Johnson Extract In order to convert the CODATA physical and chemical fundamental constants from the non-metric, conventional time system of 24h-60m-60s, to a metric time system, one may employ a conversion factor of fractal 1.157407407 and multiples thereof. Selected conversions are presented in this essay as well as a discussion about the fundamental constants regarding the use of mixed systems of measurement [metric and non-metric] as in the speed of light value, 299792.458 kms/sec. This reflects a mixed expression inasmuch as [kilo]meters is a metric expression and a second of time is non- metric. The question is discussed regarding how can fundamental constants be considered to be exact when they are based on mixed measurement systems [non-metric and metric]. The metric expression for the speed of light in a vacuum is 259020.6837 kms/metric-second. The 1.157407407 conversion factor derives from the speed of light numerical values of both the metric and the non-metric systems. There exists an essential contradiction among many of the physical and chemical fundamental constants as registered by the CODATA. In many of the constants, as in the numerical value for the speed of light in a vacuum, the numerical expressions are the result of mixing metric [mass, distance] and non-metric [time] measurement systems. One must question how can exact numerical expressions of constants be derived from combining two different measurement systems.

However, one can wonder if some notions related to stochastics were not de- veloped before. Our lecture is a tentative answer to this question. It intends to cast some light on the notions of probability in the Antiquity, in the Middle Ages and in the early Modern Times, on the chance evaluation by counting the number of favorable cases and on the notions of statistical regularity.
