Force de la pudeur by Suzanne Fraysse

“…Other slave narratives are then examined to show how the slave narrators’ reticence does not simply stem from their desire to live up to the prudish expectations of their readers but constitutes a rhetorical strategy aiming at opposing fugitive slaves abiding by conservative moral values to slaveholders whose profligacy blurs the conventional boundaries between males and females, Blacks and Whites, animals and human beings. …”

Towards a Pattern Language Approach to Document Description by Robert Waller, Judy Delin, Martin Thomas

“…We discuss the use of patterns across a range of disciplines before suggesting the need to place patterns in the context of genres, with each potentially belonging to a “home genre” in which it originates and to which it makes an implicit intertextual reference intended to produce a particular reader response in the form of a reading strategy or interpretative stance. We consider some conceptual and technical issues involved in the descriptive study of patterns in naturally-occurring documents, including the challenges involved in building a document corpus.…”

Insider Trading with Memory under Random Deadline by Kai Xiao, Yonghui Zhou

“…By a filtering theory on fractional Brownian motion and the stochastic maximum principle, we obtain a necessary condition of the insider’s optimal strategy, an equation satisfied. It shows that when the volatility of noise traders is constant and the noise traders’ memories become weaker and weaker, the optimal trading intensity and the corresponding residual information tend to those, respectively, when noise traders have no any memory. …”

A trusted IoT architecture model by Ansheng YIN, Shijun ZHANG

“…The internet of things (IoT) has been widely concerned and developed in the world,and its security has been paid more and more attention.However,due to the characteristics of the IoT itself,a lot of security measures in the internet field can’t be applied directly.The current security strategy mainly provide solutions according to the threat of the IoT one by one.In face of increasingly intelligent,systematic,integrated security threats,a trusted IoT architecture of two layers and tri-elements,which brought about a whole trusted security mechanism according to the function of IoT.Starting with the integrity and safety inspection of hardware and software of sensor devices,the trusted chain was transmitted until the application layer,and data was processed according to behavior trusted value in application layer.At the same time,the control function and the data function were separated,and the security strategies cooperated and verified with each other,therefore improving the ability of the IoT to deal with security threats effectively.…”

Discovering the backbone network with a novel designed ant colony algorithm by Fang LYU, Jun BAI, Junheng HUANG, Bailing WANG

“…Forthe problem that in interactive network,the illegal and abnormal behaviors were becoming more hidden,moreover,the complex relation in real interactive network heightens the difficulty of detecting anomalous entities,an ant colony model was proposed for extracting the backbone network from the complex interactive network.The novel model simulated the relationships among entities based on the theory of path optimization,reduced the network size after quantifying the significance of each flow of information.Firstly,a strategy of initial location selection was proposed taking advantage of network centrality.Secondly,a novel path transfer mechanism was devised for the ant colony to fit the flow behavior of entities.Finally,an adaptive and dynamic pheromone update mechanism was designed for guiding the optimization of information flows.The experimental results show that the proposed model is superior to the traditional ant colony algorithm in both solving quality and solving performance,and has better coverage and accuracy than the greedy algorithm.…”

The Impact of Banks’ Commitment to the Decisions of the Basel II Committee and its Impact on their Performance: A Field Study in a Sample of Private Iraqi Banks by Rami Abbas Hameed

“…The research aims to demonstrate the impact of banks’ commitment to the decisions of the Basel Committee on their performance The researcher used the analytical approach to demonstrate the impact of adopting the Basel principles، specifically capital adequacy، on banking performance The researcher concluded that commitment to capital adequacy reduces the risks to which the bank may be exposed It improves its performance، and commitment to supervisory review leads to coordination between the size of the risks facing the bank and the adequacy of capital، in addition to the strategy it follows in dealing with these risks. Market discipline also works to enhance disclosure and transparency in banking work. …”
