Active Virtual Network Management Prediction: Complexity as a Framework for Prediction, Optimization, and Assurance
Research into active networking has provided the incentive to re-visit what
has traditionally been classified as distinct properties and characteristics of
information transfer such as protocol versus service; at a more fundamental
level this paper considers the blending of computation and communication by
means of complexity. The specific service examined in this paper is network
self-prediction enabled by Active Virtual Network Management Prediction.
Computation/communication is analyzed via Kolmogorov Complexity. The result is
a mechanism to understand and improve the performance of active networking and
Active Virtual Network Management Prediction in particular. The Active Virtual
Network Management Prediction mechanism allows information, in various states
of algorithmic and static form, to be transported in the service of prediction
for network management. The results are generally applicable to algorithmic
transmission of information. Kolmogorov Complexity is used and experimentally
validated as a theory describing the relationship among algorithmic
compression, complexity, and prediction accuracy within an active network.
Finally, the paper concludes with a complexity-based framework for Information
Assurance that attempts to take a holistic view of vulnerability analysis
Review Of Marche Des Arts Du Spectacle Africain (Masa \u2797)
A panoply of over fifty dance, music, and theatre events from twenty African countries was performed at seven different venues, including indoor and outdoor theatres, clubs, concert halls, courtyards, gardens, and a sports stadium. The Moroccan company Ballet-Théùtre Zinoun presented Psyché Ou La Légende D\u27Adonis, a revisiting of the Adonis legend in which the balletic movement vocabulary and neoclassical choreographic techniques were interspersed with scenes in which a narrator alternated the words of Arab poets with riffs on his soprano saxophone
Sustaining dance education in New Zealand: Some issues facing pre-service, primary teacher educators
In the area of Dance Education particularly in a primary education context there are several publications on how to teach dance from a variety of philosophical standpoints (Stinson, 1997; Gough, 1999; Autard-Smith, 2002; Cone and Cone, 2005; McCutchen, 2006). Recent research into dance pedagogy analysed the concepts and approaches to creativity by three specialist dance teachers within a primary context in the United Kingdom (Chappell, 2007). Several dance researchers in New Zealand (Bolwell, 1998; Hong, 2000; Renner, 2006; Buck, 2007) have focused on Dance Education within a primary school context from the following angles: developing dance literacy, primary teachersâ voices in relation to teaching dance, approaches to curriculum dance, analysis of childrenâs reflections to live dance performance, and dance and interdisciplinary arts. However the issue of sustainable dance education for pre-service primary educators has not been examined. This paper explores some of the challenges facing dance educators working with pre-service primary teachers in the New Zealand context and reports on a particular cohort of student viewpoints
