The Techno-Politics of Food Security in New Delhi: The Re-Materialization of the Ration Card
In the early 2000s, millions of households suffered from starvation as waves of drought repeatedly hit the northern states of India. Despite the famine, the Indian authorities remained shockingly unresponsive to the needs of starving populations. In the ensuing decade, a unique configuration of …

Caching Derived Data in Object-Oriented Databases, and an Intelligent System Design for Selecting Their Materialization Strategies
… predicted during application design. I describe materialization cost estimates based on having the database observe and collect data on actual usage patterns, and the actual costs observed implementing different choices. I designed an intelligent system which dynamically makes materialization …

Fault tolerance in parallel data processing systems
… a nonblocking manner. The introduced ephemeral materialization points hold intermediate data in memory while monitoring the running job. This monitoring enables the system to choose the sweet spots for materialization. At the same time, the materialization points allow the pipelining of data. …

Threshold and Transition: A Community Library
This thesis is a study of the threshold as a materialization of spatial limit; individually absolute in definition, but often part of a transition of greater scale. With the program of a public library serving as a vehicle for study, the project seeks to explore the role threshold has with the …

The Revaluation of the National Language in a Post-National Era: Language Policy and the Governance of Migration and Citizenship
… of emergence, selection, operationalization, and materialization of discourses within domains of social action, and recontextualization of discourses across domains (Fairclough, 2009; Wodak & Fairclough, 2010) to a comparative case study of the policy processes surrounding language, immigration, …

Enhancing EFL teacher trainees’ cognition through Systemic Theoretical Instruction (STI)
… cognition through three key phases: 1) Materialization; 2) Verbal Action; and 3) Internalization. Given that EFL teachers must possess a solid level of knowledge (linguistic, metalinguistic and pedagogical) and that there is no exact correspondence of the forms of tense/aspect in English …

A Melting Fossil: Constituting Planetary Time In The Cryosphere, 1815-1980
… temporality have materialized, and how this materialization determines (and limits) cultural notions of and political actions on the past and future of the planet, A Melting Fossil reveals how deep time has expanded beyond the purview of the Earth sciences to form an epistemological frame for …

A proposed experiment to detect the magnetic monopole of the Ruderman-Zwanziger model
… we propose an experiment designed to detect the materialization of the magnetic monopole.

An Architecture of Reconciliation
… idea and built form is accomplished by the materialization of the idea through the use of specific materials with their inherent qualities and restrictions. The learning begins when one sees these restrictions not as a hinderance to the idea, but that which can reveal the very essence of …

Optimizing end-to-end machine learning pipelines for model training
… the evaluation of the join predicate from the materialization of the result. This minimizes data shuffling in distributed settings and enables the operator to choose the materialization strategy depending on the shape of the input relations. In summary, we conclude that we need a holistic …

Improving Query Performance using Materialized XML Views: A Learning-based approach
… of this paper is to show that selective materialization of data as XML views reduces query-execution costs for the workload queries, in relatively static databases. Our learning-based approach precomputes and stores (materializes) parts of the answers to the workload queries as clustered …

Ceci n'est pas une place: Research Center for the History of the Third Reich and a park, Berlin
… of architectural manifestations, that is, the materialization of a "reality". My scheme is one more exploration of my concerns, and also an extension to the search for an architectural attitude. Even though I believe at this time that language in architecture is a conscious decision of the …

Towards material-informed tectonics
… the framework are introduced with material and materialization precedents and implemented through computational and robotic platforms: implicit modeling for the fabrication of photopolymers, trajectory optimizing for the fabrication of water-based material, and toolpath planning for the …

From Writing to Sculpting
… filtering through his mind, and ultimately a materialization through his hands and instruments. However, that is just the beginning. To take a life of its own, the work of art should further find its way into the minds of its viewers or listeners again through a series of projections and …

Integrating OLAP and Ranking: The Ranking-Cube Methodology
… ranking cube method that performs semi on-line materialization and semi online computation in this thesis. Its complete life cycle, including cube construction, incremental maintenance, and query processing, is also discussed. We further extend the ranking cube in three dimensions. First, how to …

The Contract, the Contractor, and the Capitalization of American Building
… critical inflection point between projection and materialization, paper and concrete, contractors appealed to investment-minded clients as fellow businessmen, offering them what neither craft builders nor professional architects could deliver: a completed building, for a fixed price, on a …

Practical Rewriting Techniques for Warded Ontology-Mediated Queries
… ontologies Σ for which an explicit and finite materialization of the facts that can be derived using the database and the TGDs in Σ can be constructed; such a materialization is usually achieved by means of the well-known chase procedure. The second group comprises ontologies Σ …
