No Vehicles In The Park, Pierre Schlag Jan 1999

No Vehicles In The Park, Pierre Schlag

Seattle University Law Review

This Article poses the question: what does the ordinance really mean? Trying to find out what the ordinance really means requires something that I will call "interpretation as retrieval." By this phrase, "interpretation as retrieval," I mean nothing terribly fancy. Interpretation as retrieval is the attempt to retrieve the meaning of an artifact or text-a meaning that is found in the artifact or text and that you, the interpreter, do not already have.

Would Alan Dershowitz Be Hired To Teach Law At A Catholic Law School? Catholicizing, Neo-Brandeising, And An American Constitutional Policy Response, Leonard Pertnoy, Daniel Gordon

Seattle University Law Review

This Article examines the impact of the Catholic identity movement on Jewish law faculty. The existence and roles of Jewish law professors at Catholic law schools appear uncertain. Academic freedom in a new doctrinaire climate appears weakened. Also, the Catholic identity movement seeks to limit the number of non-Catholics on law school and university faculties. The Article will discuss the religious and demographic regimentation of Catholic universities and law schools. The Article will continue by examining the implications for Jewish law professors of the Catholic identity movement, including the risks of a reemerging Jewish quota. Last, the Article will utilize …

Weighting Unusual Feature Types, Nicholas Howe, Claire Cardie Jan 1999

Weighting Unusual Feature Types, Nicholas Howe, Claire Cardie

Computer Science: Faculty Publications

Feature weighting is known empirically to improve classification accuracy for k-nearest neighbor classifiers in tasks with irrelevant features. Many feature weighting algorithms are designed to work with symbolic features, or numeric features, or both, but cannot be applied to problems with features that do not fit these categories. This paper presents a new k-nearest neighbor feature weighting algorithm that works with any kind of feature for which a distance function can be defined. Applied to an image classification task with unusual set-like features, the technique improves classification accuracy significantly. In tests on standard data sets from the UCI repository, the …

Creating A New University Through Object Oriented Enterprise Modeling: A Study Of Communications Knowledge Management & Distributed Cognition, Armando A. Arias Jr., Beryl L. Bellman Jan 1999

Creating A New University Through Object Oriented Enterprise Modeling: A Study Of Communications Knowledge Management & Distributed Cognition, Armando A. Arias Jr., Beryl L. Bellman

SSGS Faculty Publications and Presentations

Enterprise based object oriented (OO) and Unified Modeling Language (UML) modeling makes it possible to build the needed visual environments to organize people, technologies and activities (Arias, 1999d). In our modeling approach, the focus is on "things and relationships between things" described in commonly used terms. The modeling software bridges the so-called "semantic gap" between the people and the computer language (Booch, Rumbaugh & Jacobson, 1999). An object can be a product, a process, a person, a team, a company, an application or the inter-relationship between other objects. Objects can be pictured on the screen as maps formed by personalized …

Using Violence As Social Control: Applying A Theory Of Conflict Management To Juvenile Disputes, Marian J. Borg Jan 1999

Using Violence As Social Control: Applying A Theory Of Conflict Management To Juvenile Disputes, Marian J. Borg

University of Florida Journal of Law & Public Policy

This article seeks to contribute both to the empirical evaluations of Black’s theory and to the literature on adolescent violence. It bridges these two area by examining the utility of Black’s theory of conflict management for explaining the use of violence in conflict situations between juveniles, an area in which Black’s propositions have not yet been systematically evaluated. The analysis focuses only on violence used to further a robbery, theft, or other predatory crime. Black’s theory is used as a basis for identifying social variables that increase the likelihood of using violence as a conflict management technique. A 1995 data …

The Civil Law Trust, Maurizio Lupoi Jan 1999

The Civil Law Trust, Maurizio Lupoi

Vanderbilt Journal of Transnational Law

It is generally held that trusts are incompatible with the basic assumptions of civil law systems. In order to discuss this statement one would have to inquire, first, what is meant by the term "trusts"; second, what assumed common characteristics of the civil law systems are being envisaged and declared to bein compatible with trusts; and third, why those characteristics should be incompatible with trusts. It is also commonly held that the Hague Convention of 1984 on the law applicable to and the recognition of trusts concerns only those trusts that are foreign to the jurisdiction in which the rules …

Roberto Busa, S.J., And The Invention Of The Machine-Generated Concordance, Thomas Nelson Winter

Department of Classics and Religious Studies: Faculty Publications

This is a story from early in the technological revolution, when the application was out searching for the hardware, from a time before the Internet, a time before the PC, before the chip, before the mainframe. From a time even before programming itself.

Tasman's 1957 prophecy was no shot in the dark. His view of the future was a projection from his recent past. Thomas J. Watson, Sr. had assigned him in 1949 to be IBM liaison and support person for a young Jesuit's daring project to produce an index to the complete writings of St. Thomas Aquinas. First, Tasman's …

Three's A Crowd: A Feminist Critique Of Calabresi And Melamed's One View Of The Cathedral, Jeanne L. Schroeder Jan 1999

Three's A Crowd: A Feminist Critique Of Calabresi And Melamed's One View Of The Cathedral, Jeanne L. Schroeder

Articles

The article critiques Calabresi and Melamed's trichotomy of property rights, arguing that it oversimplifies property as a binary relationship between subject and object, neglecting the complexities of enjoyment and third-party interests. By employing a feminist and Lacanian psychoanalytic perspective, the analysis highlights how this framework fails to address the dynamic, relational, and intersubjective nature of property, particularly in environmental disputes. The author advocates for a more inclusive understanding of property that incorporates both masculine and feminine metaphors, emphasizing the need to move beyond possession and exchange to recognize the mutual constitution of entitlements and law.


Imagining Machines: Time & Image In The Shorter Poems Of William Carlos Williams, Stuart Campbell Jan 1999

Imagining Machines: Time & Image In The Shorter Poems Of William Carlos Williams, Stuart Campbell

Theses : Honours

A discussion of time and image in the shorter poems of William Carlos Williams. The particular focus is Williams' short poems published between the Great War and World War II. The relationship between the form of the poems, and Williams' theories on poetry, as expressed in Spring and All, and The Wedge is examined. In turn, Williams' theories are viewed in the context of Imagism, Objectivist poetics, and the modernist machine aesthetic. Williams' application of these theories is seen to create a poetic form that generates images in the reader's imagination in synchrony with the moment.
