Two stories and an ode

"an ode in two divan"

introduced in this inquiry and review is a balladry which exists both in divan of hassan ghaznavi and attar. in addition, the existing differences between the two also revealed balladry, and some lines in this ode were corrected according to divan of hassan ghaznavi. it is very important to note that the opening sixteen lines of this ode, except for the 7th and 8th lines, have been attributed t...

An Ode to Arrows

We study a number of embedded DSLs for autonomous ordinary differential equations (autonomous ODEs) in Haskell. A naive implementation based on the lazy tower of derivatives is straightforward but has serious time and space leaks due to the loss of sharing when handling cyclic and infinite data structures. In seeking a solution to fix this problem, we explore a number of DSLs ranging from shall...

ICT for Development: Two Contradictory Stories of an ICT Initiative

In this study we explore two different perspectives of one ICT project. The “mainstream” believed that an educational ICT project for Taiwanese aboriginals was successful, while the local aboriginals and local teachers did not. Using ethnographic research, we investigated the possible reasons for the disparity between the views of the mainstream and the locals. Our findings indicate that the pa...

An extended ode solver for sensitivity calculations

A rcccntly published semi-implicit Rung+Kulta algorithm has been extended to compute parameter sensitivities in dynamical systems. The decomposed direct method (DDM) of sensitivity analysis results in a general and compact FORTRAN program, well-suited even for small computers. The straightforward DDM provides more accurate sensitivities than does the numerically efficient, but more involved Gre...
