We describe the WDM request/allocation protocol (WRAP), a media-access control for wavelength-routed passive optical networks (WR-PONs) in which each node has single fixed receiver and tunable transmitter. The does not require carrier sensing capability, separate channel, or any centralized scheduling. Access to transmission channels is regulated by allocations made at destination nodes response requests source nodes. Computer simulation used investigate three different allocation...
Effective natural resource management (NRM) often depends on collaboration through formal and informal relationships. Social network analysis (SNA) provides a framework for studying social relationships; however, deeper understanding of the nature these relationships is missing. By integrating multiple analytical methods (including SNA, evidence ratings, perception matrices), we were able to investigate in NRM networks across five service types (e.g., technical advice, on-ground support) our...
This paper focuses on a water management project in the remote Aboriginal community of Milingimbi, Northern Australia. Drawing materials and experiences from two distinct stages this project, we revisit policy report engage ethnographic storytelling order to highlight series sensing practices associated with management. In former, working symmetry between Yolngu Western knowledges is actively sought through project. However, latter, recurrent asymmetries research work continue appear:...
In this paper, we explore possibilities for reconceptualizing cosmopolitics by focusing on sites and situations where the problem of un/commonality plays a central role. Stemming from ethnographic research carried out as part an ongoing collaboration 'Landscapes Democracy', outline study democratic politics that extends beyond single world attends to landscapes political practice embed, sometimes deny multiplicity. We follow chronological unfolding our fieldwork in Germany Australia, trace...
This paper presents an effort to think about ‘heat stress’ as multiple objects of governance. In seeking analyse this ‘object’ we draw on Foucault’s account ‘problematization’ (1985, 2009). Accordingly, heat stress is not understood a mere description aspect reality, but instead emerges object knowledge from particular practices in times and places which together certain elements (Laclau & Mouffe, 2001; Oppermann, 2013) such concepts, measures rules: Problematization doesn’t mean the...
Ground Up Inquiry is the name of a situated approach to researching used by Contemporary Indigenous Knowledge and Governance (CIKG) team in CDU’s Northern Institute (Charles Darwin University, 2017a). The partners with researchers working under authority Elders their home places. Many our partner offer research services through Researchers Initiative 2017b). In Territory Australia, often contract service delivery, but it also increasingly recognised as an established method where academic...
Effective ecosystem management for biodiversity and human well-being relies on accurate information. Consistent approaches to classifying, describing, assessing ecosystems can improve the understanding of ecological processes, threats, management. We explored how Global Ecosystem Typology – a global classification framework based function could support development local inventory Tiwi Islands, Australia, facilitate by Indigenous peoples government agencies incorporating knowledge scientific...
In this panel we consider how social actors situate uses of technologies within systems moral norms and values while at the same time compelling creation new ones. Popular discourse tends to present dualistic thinking positive negative impacts technologies. Scholars have engaged with internet digital media, emphasising emancipatory subcultures (Coleman 2014; Gehl 2016, 2018) or presenting a critical view constraining aspects networked (Fish & Follis 2019; Fuchs Lovink 2016). These...
1 It is the third exhibition that Latour has co-curated in this space, (or perhaps being mindful of Laboratory Life (Latour & Woolgar 1986), we should say 'this place').The fi rst two were Iconoclash (2002) and Making Things Public (2005), both curated with Peter Weibel.This also fourth product 'An Inquiry into Modes Existence' (AIME) project: 2012 saw publication AIME book website, 2 then 2013 staging a series workshops, ending two-day conference Paris 2014.As instalment, 'Reset Modernity!'...
