21A.112 Seminar in Ethnography and Fieldwork, Fall 2003 by Silbey, Susan S.

“…We will move from an overview of ethnography, to getting into the field, to writing fieldnotes, to analyzing data and writing a short ethnographic piece. We will, as you must in doing fieldwork and writing ethnographies, intersperse reading with fieldwork to theoretically inform both the fieldwork and the writing. …”

Optimisation strategies for directed evolution without sequencing by James, J, Towers, S, Foerster, J, Steel, H

“…A typical directed evolution process consists of iterative rounds of mutagenesis and selection that are designed to steer changes in a biological system (e.g. a protein) towards some functional goal. …”

The WHO Mental Health Gap Action Programme for mental, neurological, and substance use conditions: the new and updated guideline recommendations by Brohan, E, Chowdhary, N, Dua, T, Barbui, C, Thornicroft, G, Kestel, D

“…It was produced by a guideline development group and steering group, with support from topic experts, using quantitative and qualitative evidence and a systematic review of use of mhGAP. 90 recommendations from the 2015 guideline update were validated and endorsed for use in their current format. …”

Frames of systems change in sustainability transformations: lessons from sociotechnical systems and circular economy case studies by Eising-Mertsch, L, Savaget, P, Zomer, T, Brophy, A

“…Tackling the world's most complex challenges requires transforming systems purposefully, which involves reflecting on the directionality of ongoing systems transformations and the design of policy mixes capable of steering systems in more desirable directions. It is argued that a framing lens helps to advance understanding of this challenge by surfacing situated and heterogeneous perspectives on systems change. …”

On strong semismoothness and superlinear convergence of complementarity problems over homogeneous cones by Nguyen, Hai Ha

“…Especially, for the class of symmetric cones, beside defi ning the symmetric cone via using the concept of homogeneous cone, we also introduce the closely related concepts like Euclidean Jordan algebra, Jordan frame, Pierce decomposition, etc. In the last section of this chapter, we take a glance over the main contributions, discussed in Chapers 2 and Chapter 3. …”

High performance parallel rendering on the PC platform by Wong, Chee Kien.

“…Coupled with advancement in semiconductor fabrication technology, parallel rendering is not longer implemented only in expensive and specialized multiprocessor systems but on the desktop computer platform as well. To date, a $500 piece of PC graphics hardware (GeForce4Ti) [7] is already capable of achieving a peak performance of processing 146 million polygons per second. …”
