Följande studie syftar till att undersöka den interaktion som följer två kommunikationsstrategier på resebolaget TUI:s Instagramkonto och faller inom det medie- och kommunikationsvetenskapliga fältet. För att uppfylla studiens syfte utformas en huvudfråga och två stödfrågor, som utgör utgångspunkten för uppsatsens resultat- och analysdel. Dessa frågor är: - Hur ser interaktionen ut mellan TUI och dess följare på Instagram? - Hur arbetar TUI med rotationskuratering respektive kommersiell kuratering på Instagram? - Hur skiljer sig interaktionen åt mellan dessa två kommunikationsstrategier? Det ramverk som studien vilar på är teorier kring strukturer i sociala medier, avsändare, word of mouth och visuell kommunikation. Studiens metod är kvalitativ och genom en netnografisk observation studeras kommunikationsstrategierna rotationskuratering, där en anställd kuraterar (skapar) innehållet veckovis, och kommersiell kuratering, där huvudkontoret kuraterar innehållet. Det insamlade materialet analyseras genom en semiotisk bildanalys och en tematisk textanalys. Studien visar att TUI vid kommersiell kuratering använder ett opersonligt textspråk, som kan liknas vid redaktionellt skrivet material, och bilderna är av hög kvalitet. Följden av detta blir kortfattade och opersonliga kommentarer, där fokus ofta ligger på bilden. Följarna omnämner (taggar) andra användare i stor utsträckning vilket leder till interna konversationer följarna emellan i kommentarsfältet. Vid rotationskurateringen använder TUI istället ett mer avslappnat språk, där kuraterarens personlighet tydligt framkommer. Detta genererar kommentarer av mer personlig karaktär, där följarna ställer frågor till TUI och delar med sig av egna erfarenheter. Slutsatserna är att rotationskurateringen resulterar i en mer personlig interaktion, vilket stärker relationen mellan TUI och följarna, medan den kommersiella kurateringen leder till en större delning samt att större fokus läggs vid bilden. / This study falls within the field of media and communication, and aims to research two different communication strategies on the travel company TUI’s Instagram page, as well as the interaction that these strategies result in. In order to fulfill the purpose of the study the following research questions have been defined:  - What kind of interaction is displayed on TUI’s Instagram page, between the corporation and their followers? - How is TUI working with rotation curation versus commercial curation on Instagram? - How does the interaction differ between these two communication strategies? The study is based upon theories about structures in social media, the sender, word of mouth and visual communication. A qualitative method has been used and through a nethnographic observation on rotation curation, where an employee curates the content, and commercial curation, where the head office curates the content, the outcome of both strategies have been studied. The results of the study are interpreted through a semiotic analysis of the images and a thematic text analysis. The study shows that TUI, when using commercial curation, adopts a strict and impersonal way of writing and uses high quality images. Brief and less personal comments, that often revolve around the images, is the resulting fallout. Sharing posts by tagging other Instagram accounts is also common. During the rotation curation, however, a more casual way of writing is being used and the curator’s personality is prominent. This results in comments and interaction of a more personal nature, where the followers ask questions and share personal experiences with TUI. In conclusion, the rotation curation results in a more personal interaction, in which the relationship between TUI and the followers improves, while the commercial curation results in greater sharing and comments focusing on the content of the images.

A conservação de acervos arqueológicos durante muitos anos foi uma temática pouco difundida entre os profissionais e cursos de arqueologia, e mesmo nas disciplinas sobre museus, o enfoque costumava ser voltado majoritariamente para as exposições, não oferecendo as informações necessárias para que se exercesse a curadoria e o gerenciamento de coleções em campo e laboratório. Contudo, o atual cenário nacional tem trazido urgência para os debates sobre o tema, visto o crescente número de coleções provenientes de pesquisa acadêmica e da arqueologia preventiva, deixando as reservas técnicas lotadas e muitas vezes sem oferecer as condições necessárias de guarda, fazendo com que os materiais arqueológicos se acumulem e se degradem com velocidade aumentada. Nesse contexto, esta dissertação tem por objetivo verificar, através de uma pesquisa-ação, as práticas da Musealização da Arqueologia nas instituições museais que salvaguardam acervos arqueológicos no Estado do Rio Grande do Sul, identificando como desenvolveram os procedimentos conservativos que estão sendo empregados e se sentem a necessidade de mudá-los ou potencializá-los por não responderem às expectativas. Deste modo, foram realizados questionários e observação participante com os responsáveis técnicos pelas coleções, a fim de compreender como tem se dado a tomada de escolha das metodologias aplicadas e, posteriormente, um breve diagnóstico do estado de conservação do acervo, por fim, prestou-se assistência, mediante o interesse dessas instituições, para elaboração de protocolos, procedimentos ou atividades regidas pela premissa da preservação do patrimônio arqueológico. / The archaeological conservation\'s collections, for many years was a little known thematic between the professionals and archaeology courses, even in museum classes, the focus use to be mostly on exhibitions, not providing the information needed for the exercise of curation and management of collections in the field and laboratory. However, the current national scenario has brought urgency to the debates on the subject, given the growing number of collections from academic research and preventive archeology, leaving the technical reserves crowded and often without offering the necessary conditions of guard, the archaeological materials accumulate and degrade with increased velocity. In this context, this dissertation aims to verify, through the action research, the practices of the Musealization of Archeology in museum institutions that safeguard archaeological collections in the state of Rio Grande do Sul, identifying how they have developed the conservative procedures that are being used and if they feel the need to change them, or empower them by not responding to expectations. Thus, was realized questionnaires and participatory observation with the technics responsible for the collections, in order to understand how the choice of applied methodologies has been chosen and, subsequently, a brief diagnosis of the conservation status of the collection, and finally, the assistance provided, through the interest of these institutions, in the elaboration of protocols, procedures or activities governed by for the preservation of the archaeological heritage

No. of bitstreams: 1 Rodrigo dos Santos Monteiro.pdf: 903684 bytes, checksum: 2eddf5e1e885d9791c608af32acf7988 (MD5) Previous issue date: 2013-08-26 / The goal of this dissertation is to investigate the communicative potential of curation, admitting it as a critical action. The critical role of the curators has been diagnosed particularly from the growing crisis of cultural journalism over the last twenty years. The museums‟ conservators have played similar practices (CHECA, 2008), but the new creating networks have extended these actuations apart from specific institutions, broadening the discussion to other media environments. Thus, to analyze the critical actions inherent curation, I study firstly the development of curatorial practices in museums, but from an exercise in archeology (FOUCAULT, 2005); I expand the debate from interviews of those who were the first curators to act in various systems (OBRIST, 2010) and specifically in Brazil (CHAIMOVICH, 2008). The epistemological approach traced brings studies related to body (GREINER, 2008, 2010; KATZ e GREINER, 1998, 2008; HUTCHINS, 1994; LAKOFF e JOHNSON, 1999) to think about curation as an activity involves perceptual and cognitive processes. As points of analyses were made notes on some festivals of theater and dance (arts from the body), as Festival Internacional de Teatro e de Dança de Buenos Aires (FIBA) and Festival Olhares Sobre o Corpo (Uberlândia-MG), plus a more detailed evaluation of the cultural situation of Ribeirão Pires city (SP) (DUARTE, 2012). The main hypothesis of this dissertation is that a critical curation creates media environments that change the cartography of bodies and territories The information of the works are not only internalized in the body of the viewer, once he/she creates sense to what he/she sees/ hears/ fells. In this way, it is in the nexus between curation and public where new connections are created among work of art, the local context and the public. The research considers the curation as critic when it destabilizes ways of perceiving and acting in the world. To study it, I turn to bibliographies of communication, semiotics, history and art theory, philosophy and cognitive sciences. The expected result is to bring the discussion questions that consider the curation as an area where the artistic forms of communication are designed and tested / O objetivo desta dissertação de mestrado é investigar a potencialidade comunicativa da curadoria, admitindo-a como uma ação crítica. O papel critico dos curadores tem sido diagnosticado particularmente a partir da crise crescente do jornalismo cultural durante os últimos vinte anos. Os conservadores de museus já desempenhavam práticas semelhantes (CHECA, 2008), mas as novas redes de criação têm estendido essas atuações para além de instituições específicas, ampliando as discussões para outros ambientes midiáticos. Assim, para analisar as ações críticas inerentes à curadoria, estudo, primeiramente, o desenvolvimento de práticas curatoriais em museus, mas a partir de um exercício de arqueologia (FOUCAULT, 2005); amplio o debate a partir de entrevistas daqueles que foram os primeiros curadores a atuar em sistemas diversos (OBRIST, 2010) e especificamente no Brasil (CHAIMOVICH, 2008). A abordagem epistemológica traçada traz estudos referentes ao corpo (GREINER, 2008, 2010; KATZ e GREINER, 1998, 2008; HUTCHINS, 1994; LAKOFF e JOHNSON, 1999) para pensar a curadoria como uma atividade que envolve processos perceptivos e cognitivos. Como pontos de análise, foram feitos apontamentos sobre alguns festivais de teatro e de dança (artes do corpo), como o Festival Internacional de Teatro e de Dança de Buenos Aires (FIBA) e o Festival Olhares Sobre o Corpo (Uberlândia-MG), além de uma avaliação mais detalhada sobre a situação cultural da cidade de Ribeirão Pires (SP) (DUARTE, 2012). A hipótese principal da dissertação é a de que uma curadoria crítica cria ambientes midiáticos que alteram a cartografia de corpos e de territórios. As informações das obras não são apenas internalizadas no corpo do espectador, uma vez que este cria sentido para aquilo que vê/escuta/sente. Desta maneira, é no nexo entre curadoria e público que se criam novas conexões entre a obra de arte, o contexto local e o público. A pesquisa considera a curadoria crítica quando desestabiliza modos de perceber e agir no mundo. Para estudá-la, recorro às bibliografias da comunicação, da semiótica, da história e teoria da arte, da filosofia e das ciências cognitivas. O resultado esperado é trazer à discussão questões que consideram a curadoria como uma área onde as formas de comunicação artísticas são projetadas e testadas

The quantity of literature in the biomedical domain is growing exponentially. It is becoming impossible for researchers to cope with this ever-increasing amount of information. Text mining provides methods that can improve access to information of interest through information retrieval, information extraction and question answering. However, most of these systems focus on information presented in main body of text while ignoring other parts of the document such as tables and figures. Tables present a potentially important component of research presentation, as authors often include more detailed information in tables than in textual sections of a document. Tables allow presentation of large amounts of information in relatively limited space, due to their structural flexibility and ability to present multi-dimensional information. Table processing encapsulates specific challenges that table mining systems need to take into account. Challenges include a variety of visual and semantic structures in tables, variety of information presentation formats, and dense content in table cells. The work presented in this thesis examines a multi-layered approach to information extraction from tables in biomedical documents. In this thesis we propose a representation model of tables and a method for table structure disentangling and information extraction. The model describes table structures and how they are read. We propose a method for information extraction that consists of: (1) table detection, (2) functional analysis, (3) structural analysis, (4) semantic tagging, (5) pragmatic analysis, (6) cell selection and (7) syntactic processing and extraction. In order to validate our approach, show its potential and identify remaining challenges, we applied our methodology to two case studies. The aim of the first case study was to extract baseline characteristics of clinical trials (number of patients, age, gender distribution, etc.) from tables. The second case study explored how the methodology can be applied to relationship extraction, examining extraction of drug-drug interactions. Our method performed functional analysis with a precision score of 0.9425, recall score of 0.9428 and F1-score of 0.9426. Relationships between cells were recognized with a precision of 0.9238, recall of 0.9744 and F1-score of 0.9484. The information extraction methodology performance is the state-of-the-art in table information extraction recording an F1-score range of 0.82-0.93 for demographic data, adverse event and drug-drug interaction extraction, depending on the complexity of the task and available semantic resources. Presented methodology demonstrated that information can be efficiently extracted from tables in biomedical literature. Information extraction from tables can be important for enhancing data curation, information retrieval, question answering and decision support systems with additional information from tables that cannot be found in the other parts of the document.

During the 1990s, artists started to explore the possibilities of the World Wide Web. This thesis investigates online artworks by studying their agency. Why do people interact with them, as if they are alive? How do they mobilise people, or make them share visions and ideas? Based on research in largely untapped archives, it presents an in-depth examination of several case studies, exploring the artwork's ability to have the power to act in a variety of social settings. Through studying the life trajectory of the artwork, it also offers insights in how these dynamic entities undergo changes over time and across cultures. Grounded in theoretical literature on the agency of art, this research offers an innovative way of understanding Internet art and it contributes to wider conversations about the agency of art and artefacts.

In earth observation and climatological sciences, data and their data services grow on a daily basis in a large spatial extent due to the high coverage rate of satellite sensors, model calculations, but also by continuous meteorological in situ observations. In order to reuse such data, especially data fragments as well as their data services in a collaborative and reproducible manner by citing the origin source, data analysts, e.g., researchers or impact modelers, need a possibility to identify the exact version, precise time information, parameter, and names of the dataset used. A manual process would make the citation of data fragments as a subset of an entire dataset rather complex and imprecise to obtain. Data in climate research are in most cases multidimensional, structured grid data that can change partially over time. The citation of such evolving content requires the approach of "dynamic data citation". The applied approach is based on associating queries with persistent identifiers. These queries contain the subsetting parameters, e.g., the spatial coordinates of the desired study area or the time frame with a start and end date, which are automatically included in the metadata of the newly generated subset and thus represent the information about the data history, the data provenance, which has to be established in data repository ecosystems. The Research Data Alliance Data Citation Working Group (RDA Data Citation WG) summarized the scientific status quo as well as the state of the art from existing citation and data management concepts and developed the scalable dynamic data citation methodology of evolving data. The Data Centre at the Climate Change Centre Austria (CCCA) has implemented the given recommendations and offers since 2017 an operational service on dynamic data citation on climate scenario data. With the consciousness that the objective of this topic brings a lot of dependencies on bibliographic citation research which is still under discussion, the CCCA service on Dynamic Data Citation focused on the climate domain specific issues, like characteristics of data, formats, software environment, and usage behavior. The current effort beyond spreading made experiences will be the scalability of the implementation, e.g., towards the potential of an Open Data Cube solution.

當創新不再被視為全新的發明，而更近似於既有資源的重新組合，資源重組（recombination）便成為創新的重要來源。當企業的資源有限時，有一派學者主張運用隨創（bricolage）概念，就地取材地為既有資源賦予全新價值。不過，當組織內部的資源不多，重組之後所得到的創新也相對有限。因此，另一派學者主張從組織外部連結跨域資源，整合各方之長的仲介（brokerage）觀點，在許多知名企業紛紛採用之後，霎時之間蔚為主流。然而，過去對於仲介的研究，大多聚焦於資源重組的過程，卻忽略了企業所面臨的情境制約（constraint）。 有別一般的困難，制約根深蒂固於情境（context）之中，涵蓋的範圍極廣，單一企業往往難以獨力排除，故問題解決（problem-solving）的思維不易奏效。企業如何在制約之下發展創新，是過去的研究較少著墨之處，因此我們對於企業如何回應制約的瞭解相當有限。本研究由制約對創新者的影響切入，強調創新者如何在制約之下仲介資源，並且創意地回應制約，進而發展出「借力使力」的仲介方式，不僅化解制約的阻礙，也透過資源的重新整合，從既有的資源中創造新的價值。 本研究選擇國內某知名媒體集團A公司旗下的B集團為個案公司，B集團深耕活動事業多年，媒體背景為其建立廣博的社會網絡，使其在仲介各方資源時更加順利，因而發展出與眾不同的創意回應。本論文的研究問題為：「企業在面臨制約的情況下，如何仲介資源以回應制約？」本研究以個案公司在2009年底至2010年初所舉辦的梵谷畫展作為研究個案，深入企業以訪談法蒐集資料，採用詮釋型的質性研究方法，分析策展人如何仲介各方資源，借力使力地回應情境制約，使展覽順利舉辦。最後，本研究從策展人回應制約的仲介歷程中，歸納出三種創意回應的設計原則。本研究於學理上的貢獻有二：首先，本研究呈現創新者在制約之下的仲介歷程，補強過去研究較少著墨之處，進而豐富仲介理論的內涵；其次，本研究將創新者透過仲介作為回應制約的過程，作為一種創意回應的形式，進而豐富了創意回應的理論意涵。 / When innovation is regarded as resources combination rather than novel invention, recombination therefore becomes the origin of innovation. One school demonstrated the concept of 『Bricolage』, which transfers existed resources into new values, however, it would be limited if resources are insufficient. The other school referred to 『Brokerage』, which brokers the resources outside the organization and creates new combinations through diversified resources. Nevertheless, most of relative researches focus on the process of recombination, which led to disregarding the constraints met by enterprises. Unlike normal barriers or challenges, constraints in the context are hard to removed for enterprise with insufficient resources. Due to the pervasive effectiveness of constraints, the problem-solving concept may not work well when it is applied to this issue. That is to say, how enterprises innovate under constraints is the issue neglected by past researches. Hence, this research mainly focuses on how innovator brokers diversified resources to respond to constraints creatively. Then we find that a type of brokerage named 『leverage through brokerage』. By this type of brokerage, innovators could respond to the effectiveness of constraints, and create new values through the recombination of existing resources. This research chooses B group, which belongs to a leading media company in Taiwan, as our research case. Rather than ineffective problem-solving ability of enterprise, this research cuts to the point from the effects to innovators in such constraints. B group has devoted into curation industry for many years, it tends to be easier to broker resources from different stakeholders and develop unique creativity since its media background and wide social networks. This research explains: When an enterprise confronts constraints, how does it broker resources to respond such constraints? This research chose 『Van Gogh exhibition』 held from 2009 to 2010 as a case study, adopting deeper research by interviews and using interpretation as qualitative research method, trying to analyze how curator broker resources from different stakeholders and leverage them to respond constraints. Finally, this research generalizes three creative responses as design principles from the curator's responding process to the constraints. The findings of this research demonstrate two academic contributions: (1) Different from past research, this case focuses more on the process of the brokerage when an enterprise try to innovate under constraints, therefore enriches the Brokerage theory. (2) This case concludes the process of curator's responding to constraints through brokerage as a way of creative response, hence complements the creative response theory.

This study has successfully identified transcripts differentially expressed in the salivary gland and midgut and provides candidate genes that are critical to response to parasite invasion. Furthermore, an open-source Glossina resource (G-ESTMAP) was developed that provides interactive features and browsing of functional genomics data for researchers working in the field of Trypanosomiasis on the African continent.

近年來，各國政府積極推動文化創意產業，藉以帶動其他產業促進整體經濟發展，提升生活環境；其中節慶不僅能為地方或城市提供正向發展，亦屬於一文化創意展演平台，使文化商品得以於消費者面前曝光。 本研究主張，守門機制對於節慶與文化創意產業具有重要影響，檢閱相關文獻後，本研究以「2014年簡單生活節」為個案，運用「守門機制理論」作為個案分析的研究架構。本研究之研究問題為「2014年簡單生活節如何發揮守門機制功能」，為回答研究問題，本研究採用個案研究法，藉由參與式觀察與深入訪談，瞭解簡單生活節團隊如何執行其守門機制角色，並探討其守門成果對於節慶本身與文創產業的影響，得以彌補守門機制以及節慶創新理論上的文獻缺口。 本研究發現在2014年簡單生活節的守門過程中，簡單生活節團隊在劃定邊界的過程除了會受到守門專業能耐影響外，亦被牽制於可篩選的內容，導致其守門過程是一反覆修正的過程。此外，除了文獻中提及的四種守門能耐外，本研究更發現在2014年簡單生活節中最重要的守門能耐為「策展能力」，策展能力讓簡單生活節團隊能協助品牌於節慶中呈現出更適切且驚喜的內容，並提升品牌能見度。最後，本研究建議，未來節慶策展團隊都應將「守門機制」之思維納入其策展規劃，並且重視策展能力的運用，藉此能了解自身的守門類型，提升節慶的策展內容，進而協助節慶本身與產業持續創新。 / The purpose of the study is to investigate the importance of gatekeeping process in cultural festivals and the cultural and creative industries. This study uses the gatekeeping theory which is commonly discussed in the area of communications in order to understand how the festival carries out gatekeeping function in its curation by using an example of the “2014 Urban Simple Life Festival”. The research question of the study is “how the 2014 Urban Simple Life Festival uses gatekeeping in the curation?”. The study adopts case study and uses participant observations and in-depth interviews as the research tools to investigate how the gatekeeping is used in the 2014 Urban Simple Life Festival curation. In addition, this research aims to explore how the gatekeeping outcomes influence festivals themselves and the innovations of the cultural and creative industries. This research finds out that the festival organizer’s gatekeeping abilities and the gatekeeping contents do affect the gatekeeping boundary. Furthermore, the gatekeeping process is a repeated correcting process. Apart from the four gatekeeping abilities in the existed literature, the study also discovers that the most important gatekeeping ability in festivals is the “curatorial ability”. With the curatorial ability, the festival organizer would be able to help and assist the participants to present their best work in the Festival as well as to enhance their brand visibility to the market. This study suggests that the festival organizer should take the “curatorial ability” into consideration during the curation process to enhance the innovation ability of the cultural and creative industries
