Massive Population III black hole binary systems are one of the suggested candidate sources of the recently detected gravitational wave radiation (GWR). GWR detection from a black hole binary system requires a sufficiently short orbital separation at the time of their formation, such that they would undergo coalescence within the Hubble time. This condition cannot be simply fulfilled by a short initial period, because binary interactions such as mass transfer and common envelope evolution can largely change the orbital parameters and the masses of stellar components. Here, we discuss the possibility of black hole binary mergers from massive Pop III binary systems, using a new grid of Pop III binary evolutionary models with various initial primary masses ($20M_{\odot}{\leq}M{\leq}100M_{\odot}$) and initial separations, for different initial mass ratios (q = 0.5 - 0.9).

Okakura Kakuz$\bar{o}$ (1863-1913), the founder of the Japan Art Institute, is best known for his proclamation, "Asia is One." This phrase in his book, The Ideals of the East, and his connections to Bengali revolutionaries resulted in Okakura being remembered as one of Japan's foremost Pan-Asianists. He did not, however, write The Ideals of the East as political propaganda to justify Japanese aggression; he wrote it for Westerners as an exposition of Japan's aesthetic heritage. In fact, he devoted much of his life to the preservation and promotion of Japan's artistic heritage, giving lectures to both Japanese and Western audiences. This did not necessarily mean that he rejected Western philosophy and theories. A close examination of his views of both Eastern and Western art and history reveals that he was greatly influenced by Hegel's notion of dialectics and the evolutionary theories proposed by Darwin and Spencer. Okakura viewed cross-cultural encounters to be a catalyst for change and saw his own time as a critical point where Eastern and Western history was colliding, causing the evolution of both artistic cultures.

데이터의 규모 및 활용도, 그리고 사용자 접근성 측면에서 실세계 데이터에서 가장 중요한 이슈가 되는 것은 비디오 데이터이다. 장르나 등장인물, 배경 등이 매우 상이한 대량의 비디오 데이터들이 등장하고 있기 때문에, 통일된 사전지식을 이용한 비디오 데이터 분석이 매우 비현실적이 되어가고 있으며 사전지식을 활용하지 않는 비디오 분석기법의 중요성이 커지고 있다. 본 논문에서는 진화 파티를 필터링과 우점 이미지를 이용하여 비디오 데이터를 분절(Segmentation)하는 기법을 소개한다. 이미지 분절화 과정에서 해결해야 할 난점은 시점 변화 및 움직임 등에 의해 발생하는 사소한 변화가 컴퓨터 관점에서는 무시하기 어려운 큰 변화로 해석될 수 있다는 점이다. 동일장면에서의 시점 변화와 같은 사소한 변화로 인하여 동일 세그먼트를 추정하지 못하는 어려움을 해결하기 위하여 우리는 이미지 일부를 표현하는 파티클의 개체군을 생성하여 협력적인 방식으로 개별 이미지 세그먼트를 표현하는 방법을 개발하였다. 또한 동일 인물의 움직임과 같은 변화에 대응할 수 있도록 진화 파티를 필터링 방법을 컬러 히스토그램 방법과 결합하여 추론 성능을 한층 개선하였다. 실제 TV 드라마에 대하여 수행된 인간 평가자의 분절 평가 결과와 비교하여 제안 방법의 성능을 확인하였다.

Maintenance of polymorphism in a two-locus system with two alleles under stabilizing selection has been tested by Monte-Carlo simulation. The effect of each allele was additive. Only gene x environment interactions and degree of genetic linkage between loci were considered. There were no other evolutionary forces acting except stabilizing selection. Fixation rates were influenced by the extent of environmental change and the degree of genetic linkage. In most cases, stabilizing selection depleted genetic variability when two loci have a lower degree of linkage (10 cM). When two loci are closely linked (0.1 cM), however, stabilizing selection promoted balanced heterozygotes in changing environments. Thus, environment-dependent selection and recombination rate are important parameters which should be incorporated into mechanisms of maintenance of genetic variability.

Evolvable hardware(EHW) is a dynamic field that brings together reconfigurable hardware, artificial intelligence, fault tolerance and autonomous systems. This paper gives an introduction to the field. The features that can be used to identify and classify evolvable hardware are the evolutionary algorithm, the implementation and the genotype representation. Evolvable hardware (EHW) is hardware that can change its own circuit structure by genetic learning to achieve maximum adaptation to the environment. In conventional EHW, the learning is executed by software on a computer.

At the present day, the use of containers crisscrossing seven seas and intercontinental transport has significantly increased and bringing the change on the shape of the world economy which we cannot be neglected. Additionally, with the recent technological advances in wireless sensor network (WSN) technologies, has providing an economically feasible monitoring solution to diverse application that allow us to envision the intelligent containers represent the next evolutionary development step in order to increase the efficiency, productivity, utilities, security and safe of containerized cargo shipping. This paper we present a comprehensive containerized cargo monitoring system which has adaptively embedded WSN technology into cargo logistic technology. We share the basic requirement for an autonomous logistic network that could provide optimum performance and a suite of algorithms for self-organization and bi-directional communication of a scalable large number of sensor node apply on container regardless inland and maritime transportation.

The notion of smart cities, presently, is a highly popular topic in urban policy circles. This concept is adopted by many cities across the world-with an aim of increasing urban smartness in various ways and areas. Productivity, innovation, liveability, wellbeing, accessibility, sustainability, governance, planning, and citizen participation are among these areas. Despite good policy intentions, smart city initiatives in practice had only limited impact in delivering the desired urban outcomes. This paper aims to investigate the smart city phenomenon and its planning practice approaches from an evolutionary perspective. The study places smart city plans and strategies of a number of cities across the globe under the microscope. The findings reveal that current smart city efforts are not adequate to combat the challenges of the Anthropocene epoch-that is already upon us. This paper concludes with a consolidated definition of smart and sustainable cities and considerations for moving towards Post-Anthropocentric urbanism-that is truly smart and sustainable urbanism-to avoid an imminent urban ecocide.

Granulite complexes in northern (the Nangnim block), eastern (ther Kimchaek zone of the Macheonryong belt) and southern (separate windows among upper Proterozoic structure such as the Wonsan, Nampo and Haeju granulites) parts of the Northern Korea are studied. Multistage deformations, metamorphic and migmatitic events, and granite formations are recognized in these granulite complexes. Mineral thermobarometry and fluid inclusion investigationss are used to establish the P-T evolutionary trends during prograde and retrograde metamorphic events. The peak metamorphism of granulites is characterized by temperature near $800^{\circ}C$ and pressure near 5.5-6 kb. Retrograde evolution includes cooling at constant pressure or with variable pressure ranging up to 7-8 kb. This P-T change corresponds to the transition from high to moderate or low geothermal gradient. The subsequent cooling is ac-companied by significant decompression to 3-4 kb.

Detecting and understanding the changes between RDF data is crucial in the evolutionary process, synchronization system, and versioning system on the web of data. However, current researches on detecting changes still remain unsatisfactory in that they did neither consider the large scale of RDF data nor accurately produce the RDF deltas. In this paper, we propose a scalable and effective change detection using a MapReduce framework which has been used in many fields to process and analyze large volumes of data. In particular, we focus on the structure-based change detection that adopts a strategy for the comparison of blank nodes in RDF data. To achieve this, we employ a method which is composed of two MapReduce jobs. First job partitions the triples with blank nodes by grouping each triple with the same blank node ID and then computes the incoming path to the blank node. Second job partitions the triples with the same path and matchs blank nodes with the Hungarian method. In experiments, we show that our approach is more accurate and effective than the previous approach.

Intraspecific clonal interactions have important influences on a population structure of the cellular slime mold (CSM). This study was to investigate whether or not evolutionary change in a population could be induced by clonal competition, and to elucidate how various clones in a population evolve in a homogeneous environment of laboratory culture. The characteristic clones of Polysphondylium pallidum which had different resource consumption rates (RCR) and mating types I and II were selected for study. Investigation was conducted for 4 experimental time interval $(T_0-T_4)$; one experimental time interval took almost 10-14 days from inoculation to havest of fruiting bodies. Two sets of 50 clones were cultured from 50 clones at To, and RCR variations of the population were compared between $(T_0\;and\;T_4)$ for each set of clones. Each clone of the CSM had a diverse resource consumption rate, or growth rate, in a homogeneous and limited Cerophyl agar plate despite the passage of 48-56 generations from the beginning of the experiment. Diverse clones with different growth rate could coexist in one site of the homogeneous agar plate as well as heterogeneous soil microenvironment. When there was high clonal diversity of RCR, a clone in a population had high chances to encounter other clones with resultant increased clonal competition. In one set, 26 of 37 clones of mating type I were changed to mating type Il for the 4 experimental time intervals, which indicated that the rate of competitive exclusion among clones during total experiment from $(T_0\;to\;T_4)$ was 0.703. In another set, 31 of 37 clones of mating type I were changed to mating type II , having the rate of competitive exclusion 0.838. The frequency of each of mat~ng types changed by 0.93-1.29% in each successive generation. The competitive exclusion among clones occurred by 1.26-1.75% when approximately $2.6{\times}10^8$ bacterial cells were provided as food and thereafter one generation of myxamoebae of CSM elapsed at room temperature. This finding implicated that in the vegetative state of P, pallidurn there was 1.26-1.75% probabil~ty of evolutionary change per generation changing from one clone to another clone.
