This article extends current theorizing in media psychology on audience responses to cinema by examining individuals’ perceptions of meaningfulness. Specifically, it presents the results of a study designed to expand upon research on psychological and subjective well-being to experiences and memories of films that are perceived as particularly meaningful by viewers. Characteristics and themes o...

Throughout the latter half of the past century cinema has played a significant role in the shaping of the core narratives of Australia. Films express and implicitly shape national images and symbolic representations of cultural fictions in which ideas about Indigenous identity have been embedded. In this paper, exclusionary practices in Australian narratives are analysed through examples of fil...

Smart homes have emerged because people wanted to improve and optimize the comfort in their homes, minimizing at the same time daily home responsibilities. The first automated home systems have been presented at the Chicago and New York World Fairs in 1934 and 1939. Introducing more wires in the home was carried out by some hobbyists in the 1960-ies but at the time, technologies did not offer t...

American book publishing during the Second World War had to cope with a huge increase in demand for books coupled with scarcity of resources, especially paper rationing imposed by the War Production Board. Based on research in the Random House archives and focusing on the Modern Library series, this article examines how publishers coped with wartime challenges and opportunities. Random House gr...

What it...

Software protection is an area of active research in which a variety of techniques have been developed to address the issue. Examples of such techniques include code obfuscation, software watermarking, and tamper detection. In this paper we propose a tamper resistance technique which provides both on and offline tamper detection. In our offline approach, the software dynamically detects tamperi...

Abstract: This article deals with architecture, temple design, and art in ancient India and also with continuity between Harappan and historical art and writing. It fills in the gap in the post-Harappan, pre-Buddhist art of India by calling attention to the structures of northwest India (c. 2000 BC) that are reminiscent of late-Vedic themes, and by showing that there is preponderant evidence in...

In an article in the Scottish cultural magazine, The Drouth, Mark Cousins provocatively bemoaned the lack of a vibrant film culture in Scotland. Putting Iran's cinematic achievements forward as a – perhaps surprising – example, Cousins identifies several reasons for Scotland's underdevelopment, most of which revolve around a lack of experimentation and a general absence of interest in exploring...

In the course of the routine parasitological examination of housedust samples, nearly 65,000 mites have been isolated and identified since 1969. So far the beginning of the 1980's chitinous particles of other Dermatophago­ ides mites and those of other mite species have regularly been found in the bo­ dies of house-dust mites, mostly D. farinae females. The possible significance and causes of t...
