A estĂ©tica do ruĂdo
In the essay âThe Aesthetics of Noiseâ, Torben Sangild seeks to define noise and briefly outline its history in society. He classifies it into three categories: acoustic noise, communicative noise, and subjective noise. Sangild then goes on to explore noise in rock and electronic music and how the use of the guitar, samples, and glitchesby bands such as Sonic Youth, My Bloody Valentine, Merzbow and Curd Duca defined the effect and aesthetic power that noise can convey. Sangild treats noise as an aesthetic phenomenon, an explosive feeling that can have a critical potential in a society immersed in rationality and individuality.En el ensayo âLa estĂ©tica del ruidoâ, Torben Sangild busca definir el ruido y trazar un breve esbozo de su historia en la sociedad.

UC-401 Website Hardening and Ethical Hacking
This project is to showcase a real life scenario of securing a theoretical business website on Red Hat Linux, Apache, MariaDB, and PHP hosted in a virtual machine. The project objective is for a team to research ways to secure the theoretical business website, develop and implement security policies, and perform a red/blue team exercise. This project is a way for a team to exercise ethical hacking in a closed environment to obtain experience
Foundations of space-time finite element methods: polytopes, interpolation, and integration
The main purpose of this article is to facilitate the implementation of
space-time finite element methods in four-dimensional space. In order to
develop a finite element method in this setting, it is necessary to create a
numerical foundation, or equivalently a numerical infrastructure. This
foundation should include a collection of suitable elements (usually
hypercubes, simplices, or closely related polytopes), numerical interpolation
procedures (usually orthonormal polynomial bases), and numerical integration
procedures (usually quadrature rules). It is well known that each of these
areas has yet to be fully explored, and in the present article, we attempt to
directly address this issue. We begin by developing a concrete, sequential
procedure for constructing generic four-dimensional elements (4-polytopes).
Thereafter, we review the key numerical properties of several canonical
elements: the tesseract, tetrahedral prism, and pentatope. Here, we provide
explicit expressions for orthonormal polynomial bases on these elements. Next,
we construct fully symmetric quadrature rules with positive weights that are
capable of exactly integrating high-degree polynomials, e.g. up to degree 17 on
the tesseract. Finally, the quadrature rules are successfully tested using a
set of canonical numerical experiments on polynomial and transcendental
functions.Comment: 34 pages, 18 figure

Atherosclerotic Cardiovascular Disease Beginning in Childhood
Although the clinical manifestations of cardiovascular disease (CVD), such as myocardial infarction, stroke, and peripheral vascular disease, appear from middle age, the process of atherosclerosis can begin early in childhood. The early stage and progression of atherosclerosis in youth are influenced by risk factors that include obesity, hypertension, dyslipidemia, and smoking, and by the presence of specific diseases, such as diabetes mellitus and Kawasaki disease (KD). The existing evidence indicates that primary prevention of atherosclerotic disease should begin in childhood. Identification of children at risk for atherosclerosis may allow early intervention to decrease the atherosclerotic process, thereby preventing or delaying CVD. This review will describe the origin and progression of atherosclerosis in childhood, and the identification and management of known risk factors for atherosclerotic CVD in children and young adults
