This dissertation explores the necessary and sufficient conditions to solve a variant of the dining philosophers problem. This dining variant is defined by three properties: wait-freedom, eventual weak exclusion, and eventual bounded fairness. Wait-freedom guarantees that every correct hungry process eventually enters its critical section, regardless of process crashes. Eventual weak exclusion guarantees that every execution has an infinite suffix during which no two live neighbors execute overlapping critical sections. Eventual bounded fairness guarantees that there exists a fairness bound k such that every execution has an infinite suffix during which no correct hungry process is overtaken more than k times by any neighbor. This dining variant (WF-EBF dining for short) is important for synchronization tasks where eventual safety (i.e., eventual weak exclusion) is sufficient for correctness (e.g., duty-cycle scheduling, self-stabilizing daemons, and contention managers). Unfortunately, it is known that wait-free dining is unsolvable in asynchronous message-passing systems subject to crash faults. To circumvent this impossibility result, it is necessary to assume the existence of bounds on timing properties, such as relative process speeds and message delivery time. As such, it is of interest to characterize the necessary and sufficient timing assumptions to solve WF-EBF dining. We focus on implicit timing assumptions, which can be encapsulated by failure detectors. Failure detectors can be viewed as distributed oracles that can be queried for potentially unreliable information about crash faults. The weakest detector D for WF-EBF dining means that D is both necessary and sufficient. Necessity means that every failure detector that solves WF-EBF dining is at least as strong as D. Sufficiency means that there exists at least one algorithm that solves WF-EBF dining using D. As such, our research goal is to characterize the weakest failure detector to solve WF-EBF dining. We prove that the eventually perfect failure detector 3P is the weakest failure detector for solving WF-EBF dining. 3P eventually suspects crashed processes permanently, but may make mistakes by wrongfully suspecting correct processes finitely many times during any execution. As such, 3P eventually stops suspecting correct processes.

Orientador: Romulo Campos Lins / Banca: Antonio Vicente Marafioti Garnica / Banca: Francisco César Polcino Miles / Banca: Ligia Arantes Sad / Banca: Marcos Vieira Teixeira / Resumo: Tem sido unanimidade entre os filósofos da Matemática a compreensão de que as revoluções científicas, na forma como são apresentadas em A Estrutura das Revoluções Científicas, de Thomas S. Kuhn, não ocorrem na Matemática. Este trabalho pretende o contrário: fundado no Modelo Teórico dos Campos Semânticos e tendo a história da Matemática como cenário mais especificamente, a história da Álgebra esta tese foi elaborada para mostrar que a obra Kitab al mukhtasar fi hisab al-jabr wa’l-muqabalah, de al- Khwarizmi, inaugura o primeiro período de pesquisa normal no desenvolvimento da Álgebra na Europa, um período altamente cumulativo e extraordinariamente bem sucedido em seus objetivos paradigmáticos e que se estendeu até as décadas iniciais do século XIX. Mostramos, ainda, que a demonstração do, hoje denominado, Teorema Fundamental da Álgebra, por Gauss, e a publicação do trabalho Sobre a resolução algébrica de equações, de Abel, trouxe à luz, na forma de um fato, uma anomalia irresolúvel do primeiro paradigma da Álgebra no Velho Continente. A partir daí, abriu-se um período de pesquisa extraordinária no âmbito dessa disciplina um período revolucionário de onde viria emergir um novo período de pesquisa normal, um novo paradigma para a Álgebra os sistemas algébricos abstratos fundado nas realizações matemáticas de Galois, Peacock e Hamilton. / Abstract: Thus far, all the Mathematical Philosophers have unanimously agreed that the scientific revolutions, as it is presented in The Structures of the Scientific Revolutions, by Thomas S. Kuhn, do not take place in Mathematics. This paper intends to prove just the opposite: founded on The Theoretical Models of the Semantic Fields and considering the History of Mathematics as the scenery in question more precisely, the History of Algebra this thesis was prepared to show that the work Kitab al mukhtasar fi hisab al-jabr wa’l muqabalah, by al-Khwarizmi, gives birth to the first period of normal research in the European development of Algebra, a highly cumulative and extraordinarily well succeeded period in its paradigmatic objectives, which extended until the first decades of the Nineteenth Century. We further show that the proof of the so called The Fundamental Theorem of Algebra, by Gauss, and the publication of Abel's work on The Algebraic Solutions of Equations, brought to light, as a fact, an unsolvable anomaly of the first paradigm of Algebra in the Old Continent which, from there on, caused the beginning of an extraordinary research period in this particular field in fact, a revolutionary period from which would surface a new time of normal research, a new algebraic paradigm the abstract algebraic systems based on the mathematical achievements of Galois, Peacock and Hamilton. / Doutor

The primary aim of this psychobiography was to examine Friedrich Nietzsche’s life by utilizing Carl Rogers’ theory of the fully functioning person. Friedrich Nietzsche (1844 - 1900) has become an iconic figure in German philosophy and literature. Nietzsche’s criticism of western morality and culture led him to believe that humankind was not living to its highest potential and consequently Nietzsche sought after a life of self-becoming. Nietzsche’s philosophy has influenced various people such as Viktor Frankl, DH Lawrence, Michel Foucault and NP van Wyk Louw. Nietzsche was chosen as the research subject because of personal interest, his prominence as a philosopher, and because of his ambition to live a meaningful life. Psychobiographical research with the use of psychological theory allows for the exploration and description of the life of an individual. This significant area of research involving the application of psychological theory has in previous decades, however, been under-utilized, particularly in South Africa. But more recently, has it been receiving increasing support by researchers both internationally and in South Africa. Data collected on Friedrich Nietzsche’s life were drawn from several primary and secondary sources. A data collection and analysis grid was developed in order to collect data systematically, and to analyse the data according to the qualities of Carl Rogers’ theory. The study adds to the body of psychobiographical research. It also provides an empirical exploration of Carl Rogers’ theory of the fully functioning person. As the scope of the study was that of a master’s dissertation, future research, utilising semi-structured interviews with knowledgeable relatives, academics, psychologists, biographers, philosophers and historians on Nietzsche’s life, could extend this line of research. In conclusion, the current psychobiography suggests that Nietzsche lived a life filled with several personal crises. Despite these challenges, Nietzsche directed himself towards living as a fully functioning person. Nietzsche’s impetus towards self-becoming is also evident within his philosophical writings. Nietzsche was an extraordinary individual whose life, as described in the current psychobiography, corresponds closely to Rogers’ (1961) theory of a fully functioning person.

This thesis is concerned with the concept of community in the thought of three French postmodem philosophers-Georges Bataille, Maurice Blanchot and Jean-Luc Nancy. I contend that anarchism is the best framework for understanding them because they emphasize the importance of community outside of the organization of the state. On their view, community as a unity or totality of social relations is absent in contemporary life, but this is as it should be because it makes possible the emergence of communities that are not premised on unity or totality but difference and openness. Bataille thinks that community requires an experience of sovereignty that is sacred rather than political, and that it is available through myth. Blanchot considers community in terms of the inherent neutrality of relations which cannot be co-opted by political interests. Nancy has an ontological orientation to politics that interprets existence as a community and results in a global law of multiple networks. All three stress the interplay between freedom and order, and seek a heightened sense of responsibility in community. Yet they do not acknowledge that community requires lasting institutions, and despite their attack on totalitarianism, they do not advocate democracy. Their work powerfully questions the concept of community, but it ultimately fails to offer viable alternatives for contemporary political philosophy. / Thesis / Doctor of Philosophy (PhD)
