The Study of AMGA RAP-based Web Application

The ARDA Metadata Catalog Grid Application (AMGA) web application has been widely used; however, it has drawbacks such as easy-to-use interface, no direct building of the Virtual Organization Membership Service (VOMS) proxy and no maintenance after AMGA server version 1.3. In response, we adapted a new development procedure and toolkit from Graphic User Interface (GUI) client, a Client/Server (C/S) program, to a web application to manage the both Eclipse Rich Client Platform (RCP) and Rich Ajax Platform (RAP) at the same time. The AMGA web application provides many interesting features for manipulation of collections, metadata schema, entries, access control, user/group information, federation and others. Additionally, this web application includes a powerful SQL query editor that enables users to make complicated sentences under specific query conditions. In this paper, we describe the implementation of the AMGA web application focusing on the transformation of AMGA Manager using Eclipse RCP to a RAP-based web application

Belle II Technical Design Report

The Belle detector at the KEKB electron-positron collider has collected almost 1 billion Y(4S) events in its decade of operation. Super-KEKB, an upgrade of KEKB is under construction, to increase the luminosity by two orders of magnitude during a three-year shutdown, with an ultimate goal of 8E35 /cm^2 /s luminosity. To exploit the increased luminosity, an upgrade of the Belle detector has been proposed. A new international collaboration Belle-II, is being formed. The Technical Design Report presents physics motivation, basic methods of the accelerator upgrade, as well as key improvements of the detector.Comment: Edited by: Z. Dole\v{z}al and S. Un

'The talk goes many ways' : registers of language and modes of performance in Kanjimei, East Sepik Province, Papua New Guinea

This thesis focuses on language and modes of performance in Kanjimei village, a small, largely endogamous community in East Sepik Province, Papua New Guinea. The approximately 300 members of this community speak Awiakay, a Papuan language belonging to the Arafundi group, and call themselves Awiakay. Based on 23 months of fieldwork, and drawing material from video recordings of natural speech situations, the thesis analyses the form and social functions of a range of different linguistic registers and the ways in which each of them reflects - and is itself a part of - socio-cultural continuity and change. Each of the five main chapters between the Introduction and Conclusion deals with a different linguistic register and its role in Awiakay society. Chapter 2 treats two historically related registers, 'mountain talk' and 'hidden talk' in which ordinary vocabulary is replaced by secret vocabulary, known only to the Awiakay. Mountain talk is the older genre, used during hunting trips in the mountains, in order to avoid the anger and potential malicious actions of the mountain spirits. The Awiakay have recently transferred this practice of lexical replacement to a different social setting, in which they try to avoid the dangers presented by raskols (Tok Pisin for 'criminals') in the provincial capital when they go to town. Chapter 3 analyses the language of disputes and fighting. It examines both domestic and village-internal fights and demonstrates the importance of language use in traditional conflict resolution. Chapter 4 examines Catholic charismatic spirit possession, which temporarily legitimises two otherwise condemned social practices: gossip and public criticism. Through video-recorded case study the chapter demonstrates the role of language use and language ideologies in patching the previously torn social fabric. Chapter 5 deals with laments, or 'sung-texted melodic weeping'. A person's weeping for a deceased relative or a dog is at the same time used as an indirect public call for help, or as a subtle airing of grievances about other people's wrongdoings (with or without a direct connection to the deceased). The melody which accompanies these complaints makes other people sympathise with the person weeping, so their laments are heard and taken seriously by other members of the society rather than condemned as malicious provocations. The last ethnographic chapter (6) is on Kaunjambi, an all-night song/dance cycle of 43 songs, which were, in the Awiakay view, composed by their ancestral spirits. Linguistic, musical and ethnographic analyses of the verbatim transcripts and the video and audio recordings of several performances of this song/dance cycle lead to the argument that Kaunjambi is an indigenously-composed auto-ethnography. The text of the thesis is intertwined with observational ethnographic film. The video clips are an integral part of the thesis; they are recordings of events that are analysed in individual chapters, and are thus intended to be watched while reading. All chapters are placed within the broader ethnographic literature on Melanesia and linguistic anthropology

Proposition et validation d'un nouveau modèle sur l'intention de quitter des omnipraticiens

La pénurie de médecins est une problématique que partagent plusieurs pays. Le Canada et particulièrement la province de Québec ne font pas exception à cette pénurie. Cette situation nous a amené à vouloir mieux comprendre le processus de la rétention des médecins, en particulier chez les omnipraticiens. La littérature ne semble pas suggérer de modèle sur la rétention en lien avec une population de médecins. Cette thèse comble, entre autres, cette lacune en suggérant une extension à un modèle de base sur le stress (Job Demands-Resources : JD-R) en y ajoutant le conflit travail-famille (CTF) et en l’appliquant à l’intention de quitter des omnipraticiens. Cette thèse vise donc à comprendre les phénomènes qui expliquent les relations entre le CTF, les exigences et les ressources au travail et l’intention de quitter chez les omnipraticiens. Le premier article de thèse est une recension des écrits sur les sujets du modèle JD-R, du CTF et de l’intention de quitter des médecins, menant à la proposition du nouveau modèle : Conflit exigences-ressources (CE-R). Dans le deuxième article, l’utilisation de modélisation par équations structurelles permet de vérifier la performance du nouveau modèle proposé et confirme les relations significatives entre les exigences/ressources au travail, le CTF et l’intention de quitter. L’effet structurel des exigences au travail sur l’intention de quitter l’emploi chemine en premier lieu à travers le CTF, puis à travers l’engagement et l’épuisement. De plus, les résultats soulignent l’importance de la satisfaction au travail et du CTF dans le modèle CE-R sur l’intention de quitter des omnipraticiens. Le troisième et dernier article propose l’élaboration d’une typologie sur l’intention de quitter qui se base sur le CTF et les ressources au travail comme dimensions expliquant ce phénomène. Les régressions logistiques multinomiales permettent de suggérer que la satisfaction reliée aux exigences en emploi, l’épuisement, l’environnement de travail, l’âge et le fait d’avoir des enfants contribuent à expliquer de façon significative la probabilité que les médecins se retrouvent dans le groupe affichant une intention de quitter la plus faible.The shortage of physicians is a problem faced by many countries. Canada and particularly the province of Quebec are no exceptions to this shortage. This situation has led us to want to better understand the process of physician retention, particularly among general practitioners. The literature does not seem to suggest a specific model for this population. This thesis fills this gap by suggesting an extension to an existing model based on stress (Job Demands-Resources: JD-R) by adding work-family conflict (WFC) and applying it to the intent to leave of general practitioners. Therefore, this thesis aims to understand the phenomena that explain the relationship between WFC, demands and resources at work and the intent to leave of general practitioners. The first paper of the thesis is a literature review on the subjects of the JD-R model, WFC and the physicians’ intent to leave, leading to the proposal of a new model: Demands-Resources Conflict (D-RC). In the second paper, the use of structural equations modeling allows us to verify the performance of the new proposed model and confirms the significant relationship between job resources and job demands, WFC and intent to leave. The structural effect of the job demands on the intent to leave this job travels first through WFC, then through commitment and exhaustion. In addition, it suggests the importance of job satisfaction and of WFC in the D-RC model on the intent to leave of general practitioners. The third and last paper proposes the development of a typology on the intent to leave based on the WFC and the satisfaction of job resources as dimensions explaining this phenomenon. Multinomial logistic regressions allow us to suggest that satisfaction related to job demands, to exhaustion, to the work environment, to age and to having children help significantly explain the likelihood that physicians will end up in the group showing the lowest intent to leave
