ADVANCING OUR NATION-TO-NATION RELATIONSHIP After five years of unprecedented achievements in advancing the relationship between tribal nations and the federal government, President Obama faces a unique opportunity to set the standard for tribal-federal engagement for generations to come. We trust the President and his Administration will work tirelessly over the next three years to keep the federal government’s commitments to tribal nations and to ensure tribes have the tools they need to fulfill their governmental responsibilities to their citizens. REALIZING INDIAN COUNTRY’S ECONOMIC POTENTIAL Many of the recommendations in this briefing book outline opportunities to invest in Indian Country’s economic potential and build stronger economies that benefit all Americans. From alternative energy to broadband, education to international trade, tribes offer real solutions that can ensure economic security and build sustainable prosperity for generations to come. Since our first meeting with President Obama in 2009, tribes have been clear: we are not asking for a handout, we are asking for the federal government to keep its commitments. We urge the federal government to pay the obligations written into our treaties and to enable tribes to fulfill their constitutional responsibilities as governments. Tribes can contribute to a robust American economic recovery, but to do that we need the flexibility to rebuild our own nations. To use the resources we earn within our own boundaries to build and strengthen our economies. The President has set a new standard for engaging with tribal nations. Many of the economic barriers faced by tribes are explained by one of two failures by the federal government: (1) failure to meet treaty commitments to tribal nations and (2) failure to acknowledge the inherent sovereignty of tribes and ensure federal policy recognizes government parity between tribes and states. To fully realize Indian Country’s economic potential – for the nation and for the more than 5 million citizens that are served by tribal nations – the federal government must work tirelessly to enable tribes to fulfill their rightful, constitutional

The rapid deployment of converters brings new challenges in ensuring robustness, transient stability, among others. In order to enhance transient stability, transmission system operators established network grid code requirements for converter-based generators to support the primary control task during faults. A critical factor in terms of implementing grid codes is the control strategy of the grid-side converters. Grid-forming converters are a promising solution which could perform properly in a weak-grid condition as well as in an islanded operation. In order to ensure grid code compliance, Citation: Farrokhseresht, N.; a wide range of transient stability studies is required. Time-domain simulations are common practice van der Meer, A.A.; Torres, J.R.; for that purpose.

  • Perspectives on the Austrian Comic Book Author Nicolas Mahler
    ADAPTATION IN THE GERMAN-SPEAKING COMIC BOOK GENRE: PERSPECTIVES ON THE AUSTRIAN COMIC BOOK AUTHOR NICOLAS MAHLER Clayton Robert Frist A Thesis Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS August 2015 Committee: Christina Guenther, Advisor Edgar Landgraf © 2015 Clayton Robert Frist All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Christina Guenther, Adviser This thesis’s aim is to introduce the contemporary Austrian comic book author Nicolas Mahler and his work to an English-speaking readership. A background of the German comic book genre prefaces a discussion about Nicolas Mahler and his professional career. The central section of this study will be devoted to a close analysis of two of Nicolas Mahler’s works, Der Weltverbesserer (2014) and Franz Kafkas nonstop Lachmaschine (2014). For my analysis of these works, I explore Linda Hutcheon’s theory of adaptation, Roland Barthes’s narratology and Brian McFarlane’s notion of enunciation. These theories aid in unpacking Nicolas Mahler’s style and examining how he adapts works of German literary classics into the comic book genre. My thesis places Nicolas Mahler and his comic books within the tradition of the German literary context as well as within the study of contemporary German-language comic books. iv This thesis is dedicated to all of those who love to read comic books. v ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I would like to thank my adviser, Dr. Christina Guenther, for supporting me on this endeavor. This thesis would not have been possible without your wisdom, insight and, above all, patience.

Nevertheless, Heine’s own accounts of the current French Affairs for the German press exhibit many clear analogies to the seemingly detested satiric drawings: not only did he use them as an important vehicle of his own political criticism, but he also matched them with his own verbal caricatures of the French monarch and his cabinet.

  • Comics at the Intersection of State Power and Childhood I
    INTRODUCTION Comics at the Intersection of State Power and Childhood i In the immediate aftermath of World War II in Europe, concerns over the acceptability and supposed harmfulness of comics were bolstered by the eff ects of Americanization on youth and how these issues af- fected the nation state, European civilization, and culture (Kultur).1 In the United States, Dr. Fredric Wertham, a German-American psycholo- gist and one of the comic industry’s most vocal opponents, suggested that comics “indoctrinated children against the accepted rules of de- cency,” comparing these publications to propaganda under European dictatorships. Although his science was questionable and less than objective, Wertham was not entirely wrong in this instance as comics were used by those very same dictatorships, just as they were by gov- ernments and the Church in the West. Wertham’s thoughts on comics sided with the social theory and philosophy of the Frankfurt School, as- sociated with the Institute for Social Research at the Goethe University Frankfurt. “Mass culture,” the Frankfurt School contended, was used for the purposes of “homogeniz[ing] society with false class consciousness and capitalist aspirations.”2 In Wertham’s estimation, comics served this same function in Western society. Comics produced in North America, Europe, and even the Soviet Bloc during the 1950s, the latter being the subject of this book, were hotly contested sites of power between ed- ucators, parents, politicians, and their constructions of the state and of childhood and how those two interacted and related to one another. As spaces typically uncontrolled and unmonitored by adults, comics gave children a site in which to demonstrate their desires and make meaning of the spaces they created.

    Smart Grid Co-Simulation with MOSAIK and HLA: A Comparison Study C. Steinbrink1, A. A. van der Meer2, M. Cvetkovic2, D. Babazadeh1, S. Rohjans3, P. Palensky2, and S. Lehnhoff1 1OFFIS { Institute for Information Technology , Oldenburg, Germany, [steinbrink, babazadeh, lehnhoff]@offis.de 2Delft University of Technology, Delft, The Netherlands, [a.a.vandermeer, m.cvetkovic, p.palensky]@tudelft.nl 3Hamburg University of Applied Sciences , Hamburg, Germany, [email protected] October 2017 Abstract Evaluating new technological developments for energy systems is becoming more and more complex. The overall application environment is a continuously growing and interconnected cyber-physical system so that analytical assessment is practically impossible to realize. Consequently, new solutions must be evaluated in simulation studies. Due to the interdisciplinarity of the simulation scenarios, various heterogeneous tools must be connected. This approach is known as co-simulation. During the last years, different approaches have been developed or adapted for applications in energy systems. In this paper, two co-simulation approaches are compared that follow generic, versatile concepts. The tool mosaik, which has been explicitly developed for the purpose of co-simulation in complex energy systems, is compared to the High Level Architecture (HLA), which possesses a domain-independent scope but is often employed in the energy domain. The comparison is twofold, considering the tools' conceptual architectures as well as results from the simulation of representative test cases. It suggests that mosaik may be the better choice for entry-level, prototypical co-simulation while HLA is more suited for complex and extensive studies. Keywords: Co-simulation, mosaik, HLA, Cyber-physical energy systems 1 Introduction The evaluation of new planning, operation and control designs in the energy domain requires thorough analysis.
