Identity Politics In Atwood, Kogawa, And Wolf, Jean Wilson
Identity Politics In Atwood, Kogawa, And Wolf, Jean Wilson
CLCWeb: Comparative Literature and Culture
Jean Wilson's article, "Identity Politics in Atwood, Kogawa, and Wolf," is a comparative study of three texts published in the early 1980s: Atwood's "Significant Moments in the Life of My Mother," Kogawa's Obasan, and Wolf's Cassandra. Identity politics figure prominently in all three literary works, whose common poetic project is one of demythologization and of enabling at the same time the emergence of a new, liberating articulation, a language perhaps "never heard before." These writings interrogate the construction of identities in a patriarchal culture and contribute to a more complex understanding of identity formation. All three works, albeit in different …
From Comparative Literature Today Toward Comparative Cultural Studies, Steven Tötösy De Zepetnek
From Comparative Literature Today Toward Comparative Cultural Studies, Steven Tötösy De Zepetnek
CLCWeb: Comparative Literature and Culture
In his article "From Comparative Literature Today Toward Comparative Cultural Studies" Steven Tötösy de Zepetnek proposes a theoretical approximation of already established and current aspects of the discipline of comparative literature and the field of cultural studies. "Comparative cultural studies" is conceived as an approach with three areas of theoretical content: 1) To study literature (text and/or literary system) with and in the context of culture and the discipline of cultural studies; 2) In cultural studies itself to study literature with borrowed elements (theories and methods) from comparative literature; and 3) To study culture and its composite parts and aspects …

Libraries Research Publications
Describes an easy method to identify serials for cancellation based on usage data and inflation rates, both which can be extracted from online library management systems such as NOTIS. Data can be imported in to a Microsoft Access database and after simple calculations are, the database can be searched for high inflation/low use titles. These titles serve as the preliminary cancellation list.
The 1907 Admission Of Land-Grant University Depository Libraries: A 90-Year Perspective, Bert Chapman
The 1907 Admission Of Land-Grant University Depository Libraries: A 90-Year Perspective, Bert Chapman
Libraries Research Publications
This presentation of how land-grant university libraries became federal depository libraries in 1907 examines the principal legislative statutes creating the land-grant university system. It proceeds to cover how a congressional Printing Commission, concerned with eliminating duplicative governmental publications, also produced legislation granting federal depository status to the libraries of land-grant universities. There is also discussion of the presence of GPO Access gateways at many land-grant university depositories and the continuing relevance of the land-grant university service ideal to the depository library program during its transition to an increasingly electronic environment. The historical evolution of America’s rural electric industry, community network …
Reading Orientalism And The Crisis Of Epistemology In The Novels Of Lawrence Durrell, James Gifford
Reading Orientalism And The Crisis Of Epistemology In The Novels Of Lawrence Durrell, James Gifford
CLCWeb: Comparative Literature and Culture
In his article, "Reading Orientalism and the Crisis of Epistemology in the Novels of Lawrence Durrell," James Gifford argues that Edward Said's Orientalism has had a far reaching impact on the study of literature as well as in Comparative Literature, especially in works which depict the "Eastern Other." However, a question arises in those texts which have completed the philosophical motion from existentialism to epistemological skepticism such as the novels of Lawrence Durrell. For example, in The Avignon Quintet a provisional and even counterfactual form of knowledge becomes central and obvious to the reader. Subsequently, knowledge of the Other becomes …
Segmenting The Commercial Producer Marketplace For Agricultural Inputs, Brent A. Gloy, Jay Akridge
Segmenting The Commercial Producer Marketplace For Agricultural Inputs, Brent A. Gloy, Jay Akridge
Department of Agricultural Economics Faculty Publications
A cluster analysis procedure was used to develop a market segmentation of U.S. crop and livestock farms with annual sales in excess of $100,000. The segments were developed based on the importance of six factors that producers evaluate when selecting input suppliers. The results indicate that four distinct segments exist: Convenience buyers, Balance buyers, Price buyers, and Performance buyers. Differences in preferences across these segments have important implications for the marketing strategies of agricultural input suppliers.
Reinterpreting Modern Culture: An Introduction To Friedrich Nietzsche’S Philosophy, Paul V. Tongeren
Reinterpreting Modern Culture: An Introduction To Friedrich Nietzsche’S Philosophy, Paul V. Tongeren
Purdue University Press Books
Friedrich Nietzsche (1844-1900) presents himself several times as a physician of culture. He considers it his task to make a diagnosis of the culture of his age, to point to the latent or patent diseases, but also to the possibilities to overcome them. His diagnosis, prognosis, and prescriptions implied an overcoming of traditional interpretation of what is going on in the main domains of culture: knowledge, morality, religion, and art. This book presents Nietzsche's thoughts on knowledge and reality, on morality and politics, and on religion. Preceding these main dialogues is an introduction on the art of reading Nietzsche's texts …
Poetic Image And Tradition In Western European Modernism, José Manuel Losada Goya
Poetic Image And Tradition In Western European Modernism, José Manuel Losada Goya
CLCWeb: Comparative Literature and Culture
José Manuel Losada Goya investigates in his article "Poetic Image and Tradition in Western European Modernism: Pound, Lorca, Claudel," aspects of poetic imagery in modernism. The analysis of the changes brought about by modern poetry involves just as much the study of content as it does of form. In the very beginning of modernity, the poet feels the necessity to invent another tradition, distinct in spatial-temporal parameters and in rhetorical procedures. In the article, attention is paid to both the re-modification of the phonological figures (especially in rhyme and rhythm) and the restructuring of lexical levels (especially in metaphor and …
East Central Europe As A Politically Correct Scapegoat: The Case Of Bulgaria, Roumiana Deltcheva
East Central Europe As A Politically Correct Scapegoat: The Case Of Bulgaria, Roumiana Deltcheva
CLCWeb: Comparative Literature and Culture
Roumiana Deltcheva analyzes in her article "East Central Europe as a Politically Correct Scapegoat: The Case of Bulgaria" the mechanisms of image construction of East Central Europe in the West, taking Bulgaria as a case study as seen in literary and filmic texts. A historical overview of literary and theoretical texts which deal with the cultural semiosphere of Bulgaria is presented to demonstrate that contrary to widely held perceptions in North American (US and Canada) "politically correct" scholarship, Europe is not a homogeneous cultural unity. In fact, a clear centre/periphery situation is established and delineated along the geographical axis West/East …
Entropy Theory And Ras Are Friends, Robert A. Mcdougall
Entropy Theory And Ras Are Friends, Robert A. Mcdougall
GTAP Working Papers Archive
Recent research in applications of entropy theory to matrix balancing problems in economics has put powerful new tools in the hands of data base developers, but overshadowed some previous findings. We recall earlier findings that the RAS is an entropy-theoretic model. Investigating the properties of a more recently proposed entropy-theoretic model, we find that in general the RAS remains preferable. We show further that the RAS can be obtained also as a generalised cross-entropy model. Finally, we present examples illus-trating how entropy-theoretic techniques can extend the RAS to handle a wider range of problems.

Integrated Detection And Estimation Using Multisensor And Distributed Processing, Rangasami L. Kashyap
Integrated Detection And Estimation Using Multisensor And Distributed Processing, Rangasami L. Kashyap
Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering Technical Reports
This research deals with the solution of detection and estimation problems encountered in a variety of target tracking problems encountered in a Ballistic Missile Defense environment. We propose five broad classes of problems. The first problem deals with the guidance for interceptors tracking maneuverable targets. We need to forecast the time of intersection and the bearing angle of the target, and have to update them continuously. The second problem is the robust tracking of moving targets, especially with the tracks close to one another. Our approach avoids the data association lacunae of the existing methods. Next we deal with targets …

Applied General Equilibrium Analysis Of Agricultural And Resource Policies, Thomas W. Hertel
Applied General Equilibrium Analysis Of Agricultural And Resource Policies, Thomas W. Hertel
GTAP Working Papers Archive
This paper reviews the literature on applied general equilibrium analysis of agricultural and resource policies. It begins with an historical overview, followed by an assessment of the benefits of this methodology for examining sectoral policies. The chapter then turns to questions of disaggregation of commodities, households, regions and factors of production. Parameter specification and model closure are discussed, as well as problems of modeling policies which affect agriculture. There are also special sections on agriculture and the environment, product differentiation and imperfect competition and model validation. The paper closes with a discussion of future challenges to the field.

Very Low-Complexity Digital Filters Based On Computational Redundancy Reduction, Khurram Muhammad, Kaushik Roy
Very Low-Complexity Digital Filters Based On Computational Redundancy Reduction, Khurram Muhammad, Kaushik Roy
Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering Technical Reports
We present computation reduction t,echniques which can be used to obtain multiplierless implementations of finite impulse response (FIR.) digital filters. The ideas presented in this work are also applicable to infinite i~!pulsere sponse (IIR) digital filters. The main idea is to remove computational redundancy by reordering computation. Hence, the frequency response of the desired filter is unaltered. Various approaches are presented which consider normal, diflerential and hybrid coefficients. It is shown that the reordering prl2blem can be formulated using a graph in which vertices represent the coefficients and edges represent resources required in a computation involving the coefficient. We present …
A Computational Redundancy Reduction Approach For High Performaice And Low Power Dsp Algorithm Implementation, Khurram Muhammad, Kaushik Roy
A Computational Redundancy Reduction Approach For High Performaice And Low Power Dsp Algorithm Implementation, Khurram Muhammad, Kaushik Roy
Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering Technical Reports
In this paper, we present a general approach which specifically targets reduction of redundant computation in common d'igital signal processing (DSP) tasks such as filtering and matrix multiplication. The main idea presented in this work is to show that such tasks can be expressed as multiplication of vectors by scalars and fast multiplication can be achieved by sharing computation in such operations. The multiplication schemes considerably reduce redundant computation by decomposing the vectors in a manner which results in maximal computation sharing, thereby, resulting in a faster and potentially low-power implementation. Two decomposition approaches are presented, one based on a …
Switching Characteristics Of Generalized Array Multiplier Architectures And Their Applications To Low Power Design, Khurram Muharnmad, Dinesh Somasekhar, Kaushik Roy
Switching Characteristics Of Generalized Array Multiplier Architectures And Their Applications To Low Power Design, Khurram Muharnmad, Dinesh Somasekhar, Kaushik Roy
Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering Technical Reports
This paper presents several new array multiplier architectures for reducing the switching activity in general digital signal processing applications. A general cellular structure is described which can be used to obtain any array multiplier suitable for a given application. The switching activity at the output nodes of the cells in this structure is analyzed and compared with a tree multiplier based on 4 : 2 compressors. It is shown that the relative inlprovement in power is a function of statistical properties of the signal. It is also shown that selection of appropriate array architecture can give up to 40% reduction …
