today, the middle east is in the grip of religious violence, causing the death of thousands and displacement of millions of the people of this region. to find the roots of religious violence, which has practically paralyzed lives of millions, it is necessary to study it through an interdisciplinary approach. religious violence involves many individual and collective aspects; psychology, persona...

Through the research on application of regional cultural symbols in logo design local museums, this paper summarizes general methods museums. and analysis existing literature cases related to Museum signs, based Saussure's "signifier" semiotics, relationship between signs is analyzed, problems development construction refining visual are studied, And then innovative with characteristics.

Using the theory of terminology for special languages, we investigate data, their representations, the semantics of data, and allowed computations. These three components for understanding data are related, and terminology supplies the link. The key insight, using terminology, is that a datum is represented by a signifier that stands for a certain kind of concept. The concept is part of the sem...

In the paper, the general structure of some programming objects useful in linguistic analysis is suggested. The structure of the most abstract linguistic object is discussed; such an object can serve as the root of the hierarchy of linguistic objects. We suggest that this abstract linguistic object be a linguistic sign. Two possible methods for hierarchy of linguistic programming objects constr...

Under the Unique Name Assumption (UNA), users need to have shared agreements on signifiers to use in schema or data, e.g. to use “genre” and not “type” to refer to a movie’s category. Agreements are difficult in open environments such as datasets on the web, open data, and crowd-sourced databases, thus this assumption can be invalid. Schema matching and data integration can be limited in respon...

This paper adds to research on girls' growing educational advantage by examining gender differences in career paths. Using baseline data from an intervention study (TRY-IT!) targeting 265 sixth-graders in Title I schools, our research traces adolescent career aspirations by gender, race and class. Additionally, we investigate whether girls and boys exhibit differential sensitivity to environmen...

This paper presents three technical design representation cases along with a real design case, in order to discuss how annotations should be used in 3D representations to support argumentative design communication. We distinguish between two modes of representations: iconic, where the signifier is perceived as resembling or imitating the signified, and symbolic, where the relationship between r...
