Reed Solomon κώδικες : παράλληλη υλοποίησηΚαρύκης, Γεώργιος 09 January 2012 (has links)
Σχεδόν όλα τα σύγχρονα τηλεπικοινωνιακά συστήματα, τα οποία προορίζονται για μεταφορά ή αποθήκευση δεδομένων, έχουν υιοθετήσει κώδικες διόρθωσης λαθών για την αύξηση της αξιοπιστίας και τη μείωση της απαιτούμενης ισχύος εκπομπής. Μία αρκετά συχνά χρησιμοποιούμενη επιλογή είναι οι κώδικες Reed Solomon που έχουν την υψηλότερη δυνατή ελάχιστη απόσταση μεταξύ των κωδικών λέξεων για δεδομένη διορθωτική ικανότητα. Στην εργασία αυτή μελετήθηκαν οι ιδιότητες των κωδίκων αυτών, έγινε ανάλυση των διαφόρων αλγορίθμων αποκωδικοποίησης και ο σχεδιασμός σε FPGA των λειτουργιών κωδικοποίησης και αποκωδικοποίησης. Πιο συγκεκριμένα, έγινε εκτενής χρήση του συνθέσιμου μικρελεγκτή της Xilinx, του Picoblaze για τα δύο συστήματα που αφορούν τον κώδικα RS (255,239), υιοθετώντας μια παράλληλη αρχιτεκτονική για τον αποκωδικοποιητή, έχοντας ως στόχο μια οικονομική ως προς τους χρησιμοποιούμενους πόρους υλοποίηση. Η αρχιτεκτονική αυτή τροποποιήθηκε με σκοπό την επίτευξη υψηλότερης ταχύτητας λειτουργίας, αυξάνοντας το χρησιμοποιούμενο hardware. Ο σχεδιασμός υλοποιήθηκε σε ένα Virtex4 της Xilinx, χρησιμοποιώντας εργαλεία της Xilinx και διαπιστώθηκε η ορθή του λειτουργία χρησιμοποιώντας αντίστοιχα bit-accurate μοντέλα που αναπτύχθηκαν σε Matlab. / -

Synthesis of topologically complex moleculesCampbell, Christopher James January 2013 (has links)
The study of topologically complex molecules is necessary to better understand the knotted architectures that abound within Nature and are vital in the functioning of DNA and proteins. Metal based template strategies have played a key role in the successful synthesis of a number of interwoven structures constructed from small molecule building blocks, however novel methodology is crucial for the expansion of this fascinating field of chemistry. The strategy of linking the ends of a cyclic helicate has been developed within the Leigh group and applied with great success to the synthesis of the first molecular pentafoil knot. This thesis presents the application of this strategy to the high yielding synthesis of a molecular Solomon link. In depth studies of the self-assembly of a pentafoil knot and self-sorting reactions are also presented, offering insights into the nontrivial self-assembly of these topologically complex molecules.

Highly effective school principalship: An investigation of the views of six Solomon Islands' Community High School principals of what constitutes highly effective school principalship and their views on issues that impede their effective practice.Ruqebatu, Collin Bartholomew January 2008 (has links)
Batu velakero iri kenaga, loboro mana vakatikili gira vano muzi (Highly effective leaders are at the front, walk in the middle, and encourage those from behind to catch up) My uncle Zorapa said, while I was on a 'pig-hunting' trip with him some twenty odd years ago, that school principals, like all leaders, can only be called leaders if they make a difference. In modern parlance, one frequently encounters this homespun wisdom in the statement that highly effective schools are led by highly effective principals. This study investigates the perceptions of six practicing principals of the elements of highly effective principalship in Solomon Islands' Community High schools. The study investigates and explores these perceptions and tries to describe the elements of highly effective principalship and the impediments that may prevent principals from becoming effective. The study hopes to contribute towards the possible development of highly effective principalship in the Solomon Islands schools. The finding of this research reveals that although the participating principals were very experienced, their responses indicate that there appeared to be no theory-driven basis for their practice. Similarly, the perceptions expressed reveal the urgent need for the Solomon Islands to pay more attention to leadership development strategies that will see the creation of national, and personal, leadership philosophies and set the process of ongoing leadership development, enhancement and improvement in the country. The proposed strategies must incorporate current international research and literature on educational leadership theories as well as building on current practice in the Solomon Islands that is nationally and culturally appropriate. In addition, the study suggests that current practitioners should be encouraged to engage in educational leadership research and begin to build a national literature base. This study suggests that the process of establishing the notion of highly effective educational leadership in the country's school system should start as soon as possible. Those in policy and decision-making positions must have the courage to implement strategies that will contribute to improved levels of educational leadership in order to raise the quality of education for all learners in the country. The children are the future prosperity of the country.

Tall tales of tradition : Solomon Island Kastom stories in transitionSeller, Robbyn. January 1996 (has links)
Historical conditions of colonialism, and more recently, the emergence of a post-colonial state and urbanization, have brought about rapid socio-cultural change in the Solomon Islands, characterized by heterogeneity and the influx of new cultural products. Throughout this process, notions of tradition have emerged, iterated largely through the multivocal category of kastom which is fundamentally construed in opposition to notions of Christianity and modernization. This thesis examines how these changes have affected stories, specifically a group of narratives called "kastom stories," told by students in the urban setting, and how these narratives have become a space for tradition to be stated and created. Notions of genre are explored to discover how such an amalgam of stories as that of the kastom stories regarded here could be considered as a group. I examine story structures to understand how elements from diverse sources could become integrated to the stories, and look at transformations which, in distanciating the stories from their original socio-cultural context of production, serve to recontextualize them in their present socio-cultural setting.

Reasons for the insertion of the encomparability of God in Solomon's prayer.Loots, Peter Charles Edmund. January 2007 (has links)
<p>In this thesis it was argued that the prime reason of the Deuteronomistic Historian (Dtr) for inserting the incomparability of God in Solomon's prayer was to convey his (Dtr's) theological interpretation of the history of Israel as history controlled by her sovereign God, Yahweh. Other reasons were also considered. This study does not pusue the incomparability formula throughout the Deuteronomistic writings, but confined itself to the prayer of Solomon and more specifically to the use of the incomparability formula. Therefore, this study intended to examine, in a scholarly and responsible manner, the main reason(s) for the insertion of the statement of the incomparability of God in king Solomon's prayer.</p>

Revisionism in the music history of Dmitry Shostakovich: the Shostakovich WarsGerald, Ginther January 2008 (has links)
The revisionist view of the Soviet Union’s most eminent composer, Shostakovich has been dominant in the American and British press ever since the publication of ex-Soviet journalist Solomon Volkov’s Testimony: The Memoirs of Dmitri Shostakovich as related and edited by Solomon Volkov in 1979. This pre-glasnost book proved to be the opportunity for music journalists to polish up their image of Shostakovich as a closet dissident who had been secretly laughing up his sleeve at the Soviet regime since 1932.
This thesis suggests that Solomon Volkov faked the writing of Testimony and claiming that the book was the ‘memoirs of Dmitri Shostakovich’ was dubious at best.
A favourite theme of revisionist writers is the perceived relationship between Shostakovich and Stalin. This thesis reveals that there was little interaction between the two despite the wild fantasies of revisionist writers and film makers. The infamous anonymous 1936 Pravda editorial ‘Muddle Instead of Music’ has been the subject of speculation ever since it was written. In the appendix of this thesis is a translation of ‘Mysteries of Lady Macbeth’ a chapter of Leonid Maksimenkov’s Muddle Instead of Music: Stalin’s Cultural Revolution 1936-1938. Archival evidence in this chapter reveals that the Pravda editorial was a product of internal Communist Party rivalry between the Cultural Education Board and the newly-formed Arts Committee. Stalin played no part in the writing of the editorial at all. This explodes many myths that have circulated since 1936 about ‘Muddle Instead of Music’. It seems that Shostakovich was a convenient target selected at random by the ambitious head of the Arts Committee – Platon Kerzhentsev.
