  • Application of Link Integrity Techniques from Hypermedia to the Semantic Web
    UNIVERSITY OF SOUTHAMPTON Faculty of Engineering and Applied Science Department of Electronics and Computer Science A mini-thesis submitted for transfer from MPhil to PhD Supervisor: Prof. Wendy Hall and Dr Les Carr Examiner: Dr Nick Gibbins Application of Link Integrity techniques from Hypermedia to the Semantic Web by Rob Vesse February 10, 2011 UNIVERSITY OF SOUTHAMPTON ABSTRACT FACULTY OF ENGINEERING AND APPLIED SCIENCE DEPARTMENT OF ELECTRONICS AND COMPUTER SCIENCE A mini-thesis submitted for transfer from MPhil to PhD by Rob Vesse As the Web of Linked Data expands it will become increasingly important to preserve data and links such that the data remains available and usable. In this work I present a method for locating linked data to preserve which functions even when the URI the user wishes to preserve does not resolve (i.e. is broken/not RDF) and an application for monitoring and preserving the data. This work is based upon the principle of adapting ideas from hypermedia link integrity in order to apply them to the Semantic Web. Contents 1 Introduction 1 1.1 Hypothesis . .2 1.2 Report Overview . .8 2 Literature Review 9 2.1 Problems in Link Integrity . .9 2.1.1 The `Dangling-Link' Problem . .9 2.1.2 The Editing Problem . 10 2.1.3 URI Identity & Meaning . 10 2.1.4 The Coreference Problem . 11 2.2 Hypermedia . 11 2.2.1 Early Hypermedia . 11 2.2.1.1 Halasz's 7 Issues . 12 2.2.2 Open Hypermedia . 14 2.2.2.1 Dexter Model . 14 2.2.3 The World Wide Web .

  • The Limits of “Ethnic War”: Intra-Group Violence and Resistance During the Bosnian War
    The Limits of “Ethnic War”: Intra-Group Violence and Resistance during the Bosnian War Gordana Božić Thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Doctorate in Philosophy degree in Political Science School of Political Studies of Department of Political Science Faculty of Social Science University of Ottawa © Gordana Božić, Ottawa, Canada, 2018 Abstract The Bosnian war was not a purely “ethnic conflict,” as both in-group members and out-group members were sacrificed for the higher political objective, namely, ethnic homogenization of divided Bosnian territories. In particular, I argue the sacrifice of in-group members, especially those who lived on the out-territory, was integral to the violence directed against out-group members. The process of resettlement of the ethnic kin was just as important as the expulsion of the ethnic “other” for re-creating a new ethnic and political balance in select strategic areas. Furthermore, the practice of the appropriation of existing and the creation of new parallel state structures were the main mechanisms of the process of the sacrifice of in-group members from the out-territory. In turn, nationalist narratives were constructed not only to justify those new structures, but also to portray ethnic minorities as potentially dangerous and threatening. In order to complete ethnic homogenization, Bosnian nationalists directly targeted the private household, expelling Bosnians from their homes and appropriating and destroying their private property. I argue that violence against the household rendered the private sphere political. In the second part of the thesis, I reflect on actions and words of ordinary Bosnians, both in-group and out-group members, who resisted violence and helped each other during the war.

    290 EL GENERAL PRALJAK Fotografía /. Sucesión en el tiempo de la aparición del chorro de agua a lo largo y de la explosión en el fondo del arco del puente EL GENERAL PRALJAK 291 La mecha detonada pudo ser activada o a través del detonador de encendido lento o por vía eléctrica. Considerando que la velocidad de detonación de la mecha detonada es a base de pentrita (PETN), es decir que la velocidad con la que la onda de detonación viaja por la mecha detonada es de alrededor de 6.500 metros por segundo, lo cual significa que el camino de unos 50 metros (que es lo que se ve, aproximadamente, en las imágenes) la onda de detonación lo recorrió en 0,008 segundos u 8 milésimas de segundo. Teniendo en cuenta la velocidad de filmación de la cámara (25 imágenes por segundo) entre dos imágenes seguidas pasan 40 milésimas de segundo, puede verse solamente la imagen inmediatamente anterior a la detonación y la imagen posterior a la detonación completa de la mecha detonante y de la carga explosiva. Es decir que la cámara no estaba en condiciones de registrar algún momento durante el movimiento de la ola de detonación a través de la mecha detonante. La conclusión mencionada fue confirmada también experimentalmente. El experimento fue colocado de manera que simule la activación de la carga explosiva a través del agua como se supuso en el esquema de la fotografía 6. 2. 2 DESCRIPCIÓN DEL EXPERIMENTO El experimento tenía la finalidad de confirmar que la columna de agua advertida fue provocada por la acción de la mecha detonada que fue colocada a través del agua a lo largo de la orilla oriental del río Neretva, y la explosión en el arco oriental del puente por la detonación de la carga explosiva que fue colocada como se marca en la fotografía 8-a.

  • Mobilizing for Ethnic Violence? Ethno-National Political Parties and the Dynamics of Ethno-Politicization Adis Maksic Dissertati
    Mobilizing for Ethnic Violence? Ethno-National Political Parties and the Dynamics of Ethno-Politicization Adis Maksic Dissertation submitted to the faculty of the Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Planning, Governance and Globalization Gerard Toal, Committee Chair Giselle Datz Robert Donia Joel Peters November 24th, 2014 Alexandria, VA Keywords: Bosnia-Herzegovina, Republic of Georgia, Serbian Democratic Party, Zviad Gamsakhurdia, Ethnic Nationalism Mobilizing for Ethnic Violence? Ethno-National Political Parties and the Dynamics of Ethno- Politicization Adis Maksic Abstract On July 12th, 1990 the Serb Democratic Party of Bosnia-Herzegovina (SDS BiH) held its founding assembly. Less than five months later, it participated in the November 1990 elections in Bosnia-Herzegovina (BiH), winning a decisive majority of the vote of ethnic Serbs. Yet, SDS BiH was not an ordinary political party. In the sixteen months that followed the elections, it initiated a series of activities that eroded the power of BiH institutions to which it had been elected. SDS BiH declared its own organs superior to those of BiH and established exclusive control in Serb-majority areas. In early 1992, it united these areas into a single Serb Republic, formed an exclusively Serb armed force, and set out to violently expand the territory that would be incorporated into the new statelet. This study seeks to advance an understanding of the role of ethno-nationalist agents in the outbreak of violent conflicts fought in the name of ethnic nations by analyzing the activities of SDS BiH on the political homogenization of Serbs in the two years leading up to the 1992 onset of violence in BiH.

In 1976, she produced a statistical study on conditions in the slums of Buenos Aires which was so deeply embarrassing to the military dictatorship that it was publicly singled out by the Junta leader, General Jorge Videla, as an example of the infiltration of subversives into the government.
