The document provides design guidelines and recommendations for developing an ecotourism site at High Gate Organic Farm in Robin's Bay, Jamaica. Key points include:
- An environmental assessment was conducted of the farm site and surrounding watershed to identify significant landscapes and land uses.
- Design recommendations were developed for best practices in developing an ecotourism site that respects the local environment and engages the community.
- The goal is to create a sustainable ecotourism destination that highlights the natural and cultural heritage of the area while providing economic opportunities for the village.
This document summarizes research on automated damage assessment from satellite imagery after disasters. It presents a novel algorithm to extract buildings from high-resolution satellite images that can detect rooftops of various shapes and colors. The algorithm is applied to images of the National Palace in Haiti before and after the 2010 earthquake. Change detection measures like color histograms and edge density are then used to analyze damage, showing potential to discriminate between collapsed, partially damaged and undamaged buildings. The results demonstrate that this automated approach could provide accurate damage assessments after disasters.
Concern-based Cohesion: Unveiling a Hidden Dimension of Cohesion MeasurementBruno C. da Silva
This document presents a study on measuring software module cohesion based on concerns, rather than structure. It introduces a new metric, Lack of Concern-based Cohesion (LCbC), to capture the number of concerns addressed by a module. The study aims to determine if LCbC captures a different dimension of cohesion than structural metrics, and whether LCbC is correlated with change-proneness. The results suggest LCbC often captures a unique dimension of cohesion and has a moderate correlation with change-proneness in most systems studied.
An Empirical Study on How Developers Reason about Module CohesionBruno C. da Silva
The document discusses developers' perceptions of module cohesion in software design. It conducted a study with 80 software developers to investigate how developers perceive and reason about module cohesion, and whether their perceptions relate to structural and conceptual cohesion measurements. The study found that developers predominantly used a conceptual cohesion perception focused on a module's responsibilities, rather than structural cohesion metrics, when assessing module cohesion. The conceptual cohesion perspective seemed more intuitive and aligned with developers' human-oriented views of cohesion. The findings suggest conceptual cohesion measurements may better capture the real notion of cohesion compared to structural metrics.
The 2011 Tōhoku earthquake and tsunami was a magnitude 9.0 earthquake that struck off the coast of Japan on March 11, 2011. It caused widespread damage along the coast, including over 15,000 deaths and the melting down of nuclear reactors. The earthquake was the most powerful to hit Japan and one of the five most powerful in the world since record keeping began. It generated a large tsunami with waves over 10 meters high in some areas, which destroyed coastal cities and towns and carried debris inland.

This document discusses constructing a 5 degree of freedom (DOF) robot arm and gripper kit to understand robotic concepts. It describes assembling the kit which has plastic gears, wires and other parts. The finished robot arm can be controlled through USB and software to perform motions like gripper actions and pick and place. The document also covers kinematic and inverse kinematic concepts for robot arm motion, and provides an example program for palletization tasks using the robot arm.
Understanding Software Cohesion Metrics: Experimental Assessment of Conceptua...Bruno C. da Silva
This document summarizes the research presented in Bruno Carreiro da Silva's doctoral thesis. The research involved four studies that compared conceptual and structural measures of software module cohesion. The first study found the measures capture different aspects of cohesion. The second study found developers primarily consider a module's responsibilities when assessing cohesion. The third study found a correlation between higher conceptual cohesion and lower change-proneness in certain systems. Overall, the research aimed to better understand conceptual cohesion and its relationship to structural cohesion and change-proneness.
