Senkiföldje : hadirokkantak és háborús önkéntesek Jugoszláviában

Yugoslavia inherited a divided wartime legacy: its war veterans that had fought or served with the Allies during the war and those that had fought or served with the Central Powers. But between the two contingents of South Slav war veterans – those that had fought in the Serbian army and those that had fought for Austria-Hungary - there was a kind of middle ground, a ‘no man’s land’ occupied by veterans who did not exactly fit into either side. The most prominent groups in this middle ground were disabled veterans, South Slavs from either the Austro-Hungarian army or the Serbian army who had been permanently injured or disfigured during the war years, and the volunteers, South Slavs of all nationality and background who had opted to fight in the Serbian army’s volunteer divisions during the wars. This article explores the experiences of veterans residing in the ‘no man’s land’ in Yugoslavia

Volunteer Veterans and Entangled Cultures of Victory in Interwar Yugoslavia and Czechoslovakia

Czechoslovakia and Yugoslavia were two successor states of the Austro-Hungarian empire at great pains in the interwar period to portray themselves, both domestically and internationally, as ‘victor states’ of the First World War, even though both states inherited societies that were deeply fractured by the experience of war. The symbol of the pro-Entente war volunteer was an important part of both states’ interwar cultures of victory. Such volunteers represented just a fraction of war veterans in both countries, but they were given great prominence in their respective state-forming cultures. This article is a study of the origins and the nature of this important entanglement. It begins by defining the problematic nature of the ‘culture of victory’ in the region, before going on to explore the common origins of the volunteer movements in the wartime pro-Entente émigré groups. It then moves on to a discussion of consequences of the privileging of volunteer veterans in the institutional, political, and commemorative cultures of the two states

An Overview of MOOS-IvP and a Users Guide to the IvP Helm - Release 4.2.1

This document describes the IvP Helm - an Open Source behavior-based autonomy application for unmanned vehicles. IvP is short for interval programming - a technique for representing and solving multi-objective optimizations problems. Behaviors in the IvP Helm are reconciled using multi-objective optimization when in competition with each other for influence of the vehicle. The IvP Helm is written as a MOOS application where MOOS is a set of Open Source publish-subscribe autonomy middleware tools. This document describes the configuration and use of the IvP Helm, provides examples of simple missions and information on how to download and build the software from the MOOS-IvP server at www.moos-ivp.org.United States.

Extending a MOOS-IvP Autonomy System and Users Guide to the IvPBuild Toolbox

This document describes how to extend the suite of MOOS applications and IvP Helm behaviors distributed with the MOOS-IvP software bundle from www.moos-ivp.org. It covers (a) a straw-man repository with a place-holder MOOS application and IvP Behavior, with a working CMake build structure, (b) a brief overview of the MOOS application class with an example application, (c) an overview of the IvP Behavior class with an example behavior, and (d) the IvPBuild Toolbox for generation of objective functions within behaviors

A Tour of MOOS-IvP Autonomy Software Modules

This paper provides an overview of the MOOS-IvP autonomy software modules. The MOOS-IvP collection of software, i.e., codebase, described here has been developed and is currently maintained by three organizations - Oxford University, Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), and the Naval Undersea Warfare Center (NUWC) Division Newport Rhode Island. The objective of this paper is to provide a comprehensive list of modules and provide for each (a) a general description of functionality, (b) dependency relationships to other modules, (c) rough order of magnitude in complexity or size, (d) authorship, and (e) current and planned distribution access
