He has held visiting appointments in many European universities (Cambridge, Paris 6, Turin, Aachen, etc.) and is a member of a number of academies and scientific societies, also a member of Editorial Boards of many academic journals. He has published over 200 scientific papers and several books. He is involved in designing the science policy for Estonia and has wide experience in implementing and advising on the European science policy. In all his activities he insists on the excellence and integrity of research as well as the links between science and society. 6 Tallinn University of Technology www.ttu.ee Tallinn University of Technology (TUT) is the only technological university in Estonia and the flagship of Estonian engineering and technical education. This is the place where synergy between different fields (technological, natural, exact, social and health sciences) is established. TUT is a research university where discoveries are transferred into studies and the real life through knowledge. The mission of TUT is to develop the economy and industry of Estonia and the Baltic Sea region through top graduates, scientific achievements, knowledge services, innovative applications and cooperation projects. 7 Enn Mellikov Director, Department of Material Science, Phone: +372 6202798 Tallinn University of Technology Mobile: +372 5112789 Professor of Semiconductor Materials Technology, [email protected] Tallinn University of Technology Member of the Estonian Academy of Sciences “They say there is no sun in Estonia,” says professor Enn Mellikov. “But I always get the sun out when the investors arrive.” Co-founder of the company Crystalsol, professor Mellikov has been working on semiconductor materials development for more than 30 years. With his help, Crystalsol is developing an entirely new type of flexible photovoltaic film with a significant cost and versatility advantage compared to all currently known photovoltaic technologies. “There is no alternative to solar energy,” he believes. Powder semiconductors in flexible solar cells The TUT Department of Material Science is one of the pioneers in developing monograin powders and solar cells in a monograin layer design, in cooperation with the spin-off company Crystalsol. The department conducts fundamental studies related to different photovoltaic materials: CuInSe2, CuInS2, CuGaSe2, Cu2ZnSnSe4, Cu2ZnSnS4, CdTe, ZnO, CdS etc. We develop thin film solar cells by vacuum evaporation, electrochemical deposition, chemical spray pyrolysis deposition and sol- gel deposition. 8 Tarmo Soomere Head of Wave Engineering Laboratory, Institute of Cybernetics, Phone: +372 6204176 Tallinn University of Technology Mobile: +372 5028921 Member of the Estonian Academy of Sciences [email protected] In January 2005, a rare hurricane swept over the North and Baltic Seas, raising sea levels along the western Estonian coast to heights not seen in decades, with houses in the resort town of Pärnu getting drenched in the greatest flood since 1924. While the Estonian Met Office, embarrassingly, failed to predict the disaster, a mathematician at the Institute of Cybernetics at TUT, Tarmo Soomere, warned of the danger of a big flood in the Postimees newspaper just one day before it happened. The authorities did not act upon his warning, but during and after the natural disaster, professor Soomere became a bit of a celebrity. He has since then become a member of the Estonian Academy of Sciences and has helped to raise the profile of science in the public at every opportunity. And the Met Office has learned its lesson, too. The mathematics of environmentally safe sea traffic The ever-increasing anthropogenic impact on vulnerable sea areas such as the Baltic Sea calls for novel methods for mitigating beforehand the impact of such risks on vulnerable areas. The Wave Engineering Lab team has developed a prototype of the method for preventive reduction of offshore environmental risks caused by the maritime industry that are transported by surface currents to the coasts. The method relies on a systematic analysis of the damaging potential of different sea areas in terms of the potential transport to vulnerable regions if faced by an oil spill or other pollution. This way, by placing maritime activities in the safest offshore areas, the consequences of potential accidents can be minimised before they occur. 9 Maarja Kruusmaa Head, Centre for Biorobotics, Tallinn University of Technology Mobile: +372 5183075 Professor of Biorobotics, Tallinn University of Technology [email protected] R&D director, Fits.me The Centre for Biorobotics looks more like a hip design studio than a run- of-the-mill research lab. Creativity and self-expression are certainly not frowned upon here. A realistic looking robotic cow that functions as a currency exchange machine was built as the centre’s light-hearted greeting of Estonia’s entry to the euro zone in 2011. A robotic fish (see below) is among the projects with more serious applications. Maarja Kruusmaa, the centre’s leader, also heads R&D in Fits.me, a virtual fitting room equipped with a robotic mannequin that helps customers buy clothes online that, well, fit them. She accomplished her PhD thesis “Repeated Path Planning for Mobile Robots in Dynamic Environments” at Chalmers University of Technology in Gothenburg, Sweden in 2002, and is a professor at Tallinn University of Technology since 2008. Robotic fish All fish have a unique sense organ – the lateral line – which directly measures hydrodynamic flow but has no direct analogue on any man-made underwater vehicles. TUT Centre for Biorobotics has equipped a fish robot with such flow sensitive sensors and has demonstrated robot behaviour similar to that of a fish. The robot detects the direction of flow, faces upstream, adjusts its swimming speed with the flow speed and hovers in energetically favourable regions in turbulence. In the future, flow sensing will help underwater robots to understand and exploit the local flow dynamics which will in turn lead to longer autonomous missions in more complicated underwater environments. 10 Art Plaza - new building for EAA, project 2011 Sea+Effect Architects, Denmark Estonian Academy of Arts www.artun.ee Estonian Academy of Arts is

  • Re-Reading Sophocles, Thomas Hardy, and Eduard Vilde1
    INTERLITT ERA RIA 2018, 23/2: 321–339 321 Th e Double-Tongued Author The Double-Tongued Author: Re-reading Sophocles, Thomas Hardy, and Eduard Vilde1 ARNE MERILAI Abstract. The article discusses the authors’ ambivalent attitude towards their protagonists, drawing on Sophocles’ Oedipus the King, Thomas Hardy’s Tess of the d’Urbervilles, and Eduard Vilde’s Mäeküla piimamees (Milkman of the Manor). Firstly, the hypothesis based on Aristotle’s Poetics and the idea of Pericles having been a possible prototype of Oedipus is proposed, according to which Sophocles could have been critical of the tyrant of Thebes as a noble representative of a polis at war with Athens, justifying his pains in addition to showing compassion. Such an interpretation is in contrast with the humanist and protest-driven glorification initiated by Friedrich Nietzsche. Another example of the author’s “hypocrisy” is Thomas Hardy’s novel that is generally, and with reason, read as critical of Victorian society. However, the work’s reception has failed to address the motif of mystical revenge on the inheritor of the bloodline of foreign conquerors that occurs in the shadow of a woman’s tragedy and is executed with consistency, yet is not seen as the text’s rival dominant. Still, without considering the opposing line of interpretation that constitutes a parallel in its tragic irony, the understanding of the novel will remain superficial. The third example of the author’s split viewpoint can be found in the first Estonian novel to excel in artistic maturity that also stands out as the first psychological and erotic novel.

  • Can Skype Be More Satisfying? a Qoe-Centric Study of the FEC
    HUANG LAYOUT 2/22/10 1:14 PM Page 2 Could Skype Be More Satisfying? A QoE-Centric Study of the FEC Mechanism in an Internet-Scale VoIP System Te-Yuan Huang, Stanford University Polly Huang, National Taiwan University Kuan-Ta Chen, Academia Sinica Po-Jung Wang, National Taiwan University Abstract The phenomenal growth of Skype in recent years has surpassed all expectations. Much of the application’s success is attributed to its FEC mechanism, which adds redundancy to voice streams to sustain audio quality under network impairments. Adopting the quality of experience approach (i.e., measuring the mean opinion scores), we examine how much redundancy Skype adds to its voice streams and systematically explore the optimal level of redundancy for different network and codec settings. This study reveals that Skype’s FEC mechanism, not so surprisingly, falls in the ballpark, but there is surprisingly a significant margin for improvement to ensure consistent user satisfaction. here is no doubt that Skype is the most popular VoIP data, at the error concealment level. service. At the end of 2009, there were 500 million Hereafter, we refer to the redundancy-based error conceal- users registered with Skype, and the number of concur- ment function of the system as the forward error correction rent online users regularly exceeds 20 million.
