Updated on 11/25/2019: Updated post to reflect that the OnePlus 6T has sold out and the OnePlus 7 Pro has limited stock. Also added related links.
One Plus 7 Pro Deal
The OnePlus 7 Pro may not be OnePlus’ latest phone, but it’s still arguably the best – especially at this sale price of $549. We reviewed the OnePlus 7 Pro and we think it’s a great phone.
It has a modern design, powerful specs, and a great display. The device boasts an impressive edge-to-edge display, with a pop-up camera at the top, which activates when you open up the camera app. Under the hood, you’ll get a Qualcomm Snapdragon 855 processor, along with up to 8GB of RAM and 256GB of storage. The camera is nice too. Sure, it’s not quite as high-quality as the Pixel 4’s camera, but it has a triple-sensor lens and should be able to take decent shots in any situation.
Get the OnePlus 7 Pro from OnePlus, $549 (originally $699) [You save $150]
SOLD OUT: OnePlus 6T Deal
The OnePlus 6T got a $150 discount too, but the phone is now sold out.
Back when the OnePlus 6T launched, we gave it top marks in our review.
The device was among the best phones of its time, and offers a nice design with a teardrop notch at the top, along with pretty powerful specs. It’s a shame the phone is already sold out, because it was a great deal, but it’s all the more reason to pick up teh OnePlus 7 Pro before it’s gone.

| DOSE: |
15 mg |

4-AcO-EIPT |
(capsule) |
A few years ago I had the chance to taste this rather exotic tryptamine. I only got one capsule containing 15 mg, so I couldn't share the experience with friends. Rather than tripping with friends on different substances, I decided to take the capsule while being alone - though I usually don't do psychedelics on my own.
The guy who sold me the capsule hadn't tried it himself, and didn't know very much about it. Except it shouldn't be too long-lasting, and that the dose would probably be a bit on the weak side for people experienced with psychedelics.
T-0:00 : About 7 pm I ingested the capsule. Doing a bit of writing on the computer, while listening to some nice music.
T-0:25 : I feel a first alert. Definate tryptamine-energy creeping up my spine. Maybe a slight bit of nausea. I decide to quit the computer, and just lay on my bed to see where this is taking me.
T-0:35 : This stuff sure kicks in quick. I check in the mirror, and my pupils are moderately dilated. The music sure sounds nice, but no visual effects whatsoever.
T-0:40 : It's getting impossible for me to relax at all. I feel extremely stimulated, but don't really want to leave my small dorm room. I'm sure it's very obvious I'm tripping at this point, and people are a bit up tight about that around here. I decide to try to learn myself how to juggle, with different things laying around the room. My mind is racing a bit, but not in a distinct psychedelic kind of way. I change music a lot. I never learn how to juggle, though I try for a long time. Having fun, though.
T-2:30 : Can it be that the effects are already subsiding? I had hoped for a longer experience. No visuals manifested at any time during the trip.
T-4:30 : Just a slight bit of effect left. I go to the dorm kitchen and drink a couple of beers with some friends. I get a good night's sleep after a couple of hours.
This compound reminded me definitely most about 5-MeO-DIPT. Same kind of restless tryptamine push, and nothing too deeply psychedelic. However, I had the feeling that larger doses of this substance might be much more worthwhile than large doses of 5-MeO-DIPT. The stimulated feeling was more comfortable and not quite as pushy.

Iraq protests: Basra streets fill with black smoke, burning tyres
by Christophe PitiotBlack smoke filled the air as protesters burned tyres to block main roads in the Iraqi city of Basra, expressing their anger at poor services and shortages despite religious and political leaders calling for calm.
Basra has seen weeks of protests against poor quality of services, especially chronic shortages of clean water and acute power shortages, leaving residents with only a few hours of electricity per day.
At least one protester died and 70 people were wounded during the continuing protests across Iraq on Sunday.
According to official reports, the ongoing protests represent the most serious challenge to Prime Minister Adel Abdul-Mahdi's government.
The spontaneous rallies have been spurred mostly by youths wanting jobs, improved services such as electricity and water, and an end to corruption.
More than 15 years after the US-led invasion that overthrew Saddam Hussein, Baghdad and other cities still see frequent power cuts, the tap water is undrinkable and public infrastructure is crumbling.
Few Iraqis have seen any benefit from the country's oil wealth, despite it being an OPEC member with the fourth-largest proven reserves in the world.
At least 342 protesters have died in Iraq’s massive protests, which started on Oct. 1 when thousands of Iraqis took to the streets to decry corruption and lack of services despite Iraq’s oil wealth.

The Wedding Singer
Chad'z rating: *** (out of 4 = good)
1998, PG-13, 96 minutes [1 hour, 36 minutes]
[romantic comedy]
starring: Adam Sandler (Robbie Hart), Drew Barrymore (Julia), Christine Taylor (Holly), Allen Covert (Sammy); written by Tim Herlihy; produced by Jack Giarraputo, Robert Simonds; directed by Frank Coraci.
Seen March 7, 1998 at 10 p.m. at the Crossgates Mall Cinema 18 (Guilderland, NY), theater #14, with my brother John using Hoyt's Movie Cash. [Theater rating: ***1/2: excellent picture and sound, but seats could have been better]
After a series of average mainstream comedies, the creative team of star Adam Sandler, writer Tim Herlihy, and producer Robert Simonds may have gotten the message that doing the same thing over and over again doesn't equal success. With "The Wedding Singer" they seem to be taking a chance by slightly straying from their usual schtick and venturing into the shaky waters of the romantic comedy, and a "nostalgic" one at that.
The year is 1985 and we meet our main character, Robbie Hart (Sandler), a wedding singer with long curly hair who we later learn lives in the basement of his sister's house and is engaged to his high school sweetheart. Other characters are thrown into the mix such as: his co-worker and best friend Sammy (Covert) who is a real ladies' man; Julia (Barrymore), a cute young woman who has just started working with Robbie; and Holly (Taylor), Julia's sister, co-worker, and shoulder to cry on. All of these characters have been clearly set into the proper places in order to further the story and provide for all the necessary comedic and thematic elements. But what's surprising is how they all manage to work, probably due to the film's over-all sense of grace under pressure.
Setting up a story to a film such as this isn't too difficult of a task - it's really just a matter of plugging in the characters and plot devices in the proper places. It's not surprising that Robbie will be left at the altar and that he will fall for Julia, who's engaged to a jerk she barely loves, and this is where the conflict will occur.
If Sandler and company have truly learned from their mistakes, it shows right away. Herlihy's dialogue is witty for such a mainstream film, and the story is paced well to actually shape the characters, making them into real people and not just pawns in a movie. We actually feel some kind of emotional connection with Robbie, so that when he's crushed we can understand, and when he begins to fall for Julia it's also sympathetic.
Much of the story involves interaction between Robbie and Julia, and is handled quite well. Where other films might have gone the sitcom route with the characters madly falling for each other at first sight, or some other kind of wacky plot, the script here is surprising in the way it handles the unspoken attraction by actually having the characters restrain themselves. Sandler and Barrymore may not have perfect chemistry, but they're placed in a story good enough to give them some charm.
The last act executes the story as one would expect, with a chase-after-the- girl, showdown-with-the-boyfriend, and gratuitous celebrity cameo. But what's surprising here is the chase evokes suspense, the showdown-with-the-boyfriend is handled well, and the gratuitous celebrity cameo doesn't seem that gratuitous.
Criticizing mainstream films for being too cliche, repetitive, generic, etc., is starting to become a task just as repetitive as the films themselves. At this point it's a given that most films will make the same mistake others have, but if and when filmmakers have learned from their mistakes, well, that's something worth applauding and "The Wedding Singer" is a good example of this. It's basically another commercial romantic comedy, but the motions it goes through are unique enough to merit a recommendation.

Rangers pull level with Celtic after 3-1 win at Hamilton
by Pulse News Agency International by AFPRangers pulled level on points with Celtic at the top of the Scottish Premiership after Ryan Kent scored his first goals since his permanent summer switch from Liverpool in a 3-1 win against Hamilton on Sunday.
Steven Gerrard's men took an early lead through Ryan Jack but were quickly pegged back as impressive Hamilton youngster Lewis Smith squared things up.
But Kent, who spent last season on loan at the Scottish giants, restored the visitors' lead just before half-time, before wrapping things up in stoppage time.
Rangers dominated the opening 45 minutes but eased off after the break and were lucky not to drop points as Hamilton threatened an equaliser.
The win means Rangers join title rivals Celtic on 34 points, with the reigning champions remaining top on goal difference.
"At times we have to go and get the second goal quicker," Rangers boss Steven Gerrard told BT Sport.
"We were poor for Hamilton's goal, we were poor on three or four occasions throughout the game where we haven't won the first header and we haven't been in the right position to cover."
With Rangers top-scorer Alfredo Morelos only touching down back in Glasgow 24 hours before kick-off following international duty with Colombia, Gerrard decided to start with him on the bench.
The visitors opened the scoring when James Tavernier skipped past Scott Martin down the right before firing in a low cross. Centre-back Jamie Hamilton stopped the cross but succeeded only in setting the ball on a plate for Jack to roll home his fourth goal of the season.
But the smile was soon wiped off Gerrard's face as Accies levelled in the 14th minute,19-year-old Smith heading in after his initial effort had been blocked.
Hamilton kept Rangers at bay but their luck ran out two minutes before the break as Kent produced a moment of quality to put Rangers back in front, rifling an unstoppable strike into the top corner.
Morelos was introduced with seven minutes left but that was enough time to see him grab an assist three minutes into stoppage time as he rolled the ball to Kent, who calmed the fraying nerves of the away fans with a cool finish.

symbol引用
这是一种全新的使用方式，应该说这才是未来的主流，也是平台目前推荐的用法。相关介绍可以参考这篇文章 这种用法其实是做了一个svg的集合，与另外两种相比具有如下特点：
- 支持多色图标了，不再受单色限制。
- 通过一些技巧，支持像字体那样，通过
font-size
,color
来调整样式。 - 兼容性较差，支持 ie9+,及现代浏览器。
- 浏览器渲染svg的性能一般，还不如png。
使用步骤如下：
第一步：引入项目下面生成的symbol代码：
<script src="./iconfont.js"></script>
第二步：加入通用css代码（引入一次就行）：
<style type="text/css">
.icon {
width: 1em; height: 1em;
vertical-align: -0.15em;
fill: currentColor;
overflow: hidden;
}
</style>
第三步：挑选相应图标并获取类名，应用于页面：
<svg class="icon" aria-hidden="true">
<use xlink:href="#sesh-xxx"></use>
</svg>


Zlatan Ibrahimovic open to Bologna move, claims Serie A side’s sporting director
by FSA EditorBologna have been in touch with Zlatan Ibrahimovic and are closely monitoring his situation as he looks for a new club.
Zlatan Ibrahimovic has informed Bologna of his willingness to consider joining them in January, according to the Serie A side’s sporting director Riccardo Bigon.
Ibrahimovic this week confirmed his departure from LA Galaxy after two seasons in MLS.
The 38-year-old intends to see out his career in Italy, Galaxy head coach Guillermo Barros Schelotto claimed, and will not be short on options given his free agent status.
AC Milan, Fiorentina and Napoli are among those to have been linked but Bologna could have the inside running thanks to Ibrahimovic’s rapport with Rossoblu boss Sinisa Mihajlovic, who crossed paths with the Swede at Inter.
“There is a month and a half to go until to the transfer window opens,” Bigon told Sky Sport Italia.
“As has been said, Ibrahimovic and the coach have a strong personal relationship.
“He expressed an openness to the idea of coming to Bologna but now he will take time, after announcing the farewell to MLS, to evaluate all the possibilities for his future.
“We are very fascinated by this situation but it is clear that we do not control it 100 per cent.
“The choice is exclusively down to the player. We will wait in case [Ibrahimovic confirms his interest], then we will be ready and more than positive.”

In a statement to the media this morning, the education ministry said the mother of Benjamin Bair was asked for the invoices from the funeral directors to facilitate payment.
"In keeping with the commitment made by the Minister with responsibility for Education, Youth and Information, Hon. Karl Samuda following the death of Benjamin Bair in an accident at the Clan Carthy Primary School in Kingston on October 29, the ministry will cover the full costs associated with his funeral," the statement read.
"An MoEYI officer who spoke with Benjamin’s mother, Ms Japhine Campbell last Friday arranged to meet with her and representatives of the Clan Carthy School on Monday, November 18 to discuss her plans and guide her through acquiring and submitting bills/invoices related to the burial," the statement continued.
The statement from the education ministry follows comments from Bair's mother yesterday that the government would not be covering the full funeral expenses her deceased child.
She learned on Friday that the ministry would cover the cost for the coffin, hearse and storage of the body.
However, she said there were other costs her family would have to bear, such as transportation of mourners, and the ninth-night event.
"This is unfair... What I need is for them to give me my son back. None of them can pay me back for my son," Campbell told the congregation of the Apostolic Church of God of Seventh Temple of Praise in Spanish Town, St Catherine where she attended service yesterday.
"My son died a horrible death and he deserves a send-off that is decent and proper, the same way I raised him like a little young man. This is unfair," she continued in tears.
However, the education ministry said following the submission of the invoices by Campbell, "as is standard procedure, a Critical Incident File is submitted and processed and then sent to the Attorney General’s Chambers for processing and determination for payment".


| pgpool-II 4.0.3 Documentation | |||
|---|---|---|---|
| Prev | Up | Chapter 5. Server Configuration | Next |
Specifies a user command to run when a PostgreSQL backend node gets detached. Pgpool-II replaces the following special characters with the backend specific information.
Table 5-6. failover command options
| Special character | Description |
|---|---|
| %d | DB node ID of the detached node |
| %h | Hostname of the detached node |
| %p | Port number of the detached node |
| %D | Database cluster directory of the detached node |
| %M | Old master node ID |
| %m | New master node ID |
| %H | Hostname of the new master node |
| %P | Old primary node ID |
| %r | Port number of the new master node |
| %R | Database cluster directory of the new master node |
| %% | '%' character |
Note: The "master node" referes to a node which has the "youngest (or the smallest) node id" among live the database nodes. In streaming replication mode, this may be different from primary node. In Table 5-6, %m is the new master node chosen by Pgpool-II. It is the node being assigned the youngest (smallest) node id which is alive. For example if you have 3 nodes, namely node 0, 1, 2. Suppose node 1 the primary and all of them are healthy (no down node). If node 1 fails, failover_command is called with %m = 0.
Note: When a failover is performed, basically Pgpool-II kills all its child processes, which will in turn terminate all the active sessions to Pgpool-II. After that Pgpool-II invokes the failover_command and after the command completion Pgpool-II starts new child processes which makes it ready again to accept client connections.
However from Pgpool-II 3.6, in the steaming replication mode, client sessions will not be disconnected when a failover occurs any more if the session does not use the failed standby server. If the primary server goes down, still all sessions will be disconnected. Health check timeout case will also cause the full session disconnection. Other health check error, including retry over case does not trigger full session disconnection.
Note: You can run psql (or whatever command) against backend to retrieve some information in the script, but you cannot run psql against Pgpool-II itself, since the script is called from Pgpool-II and it needs to run while Pgpool-II is working on failover.
This parameter can be changed by reloading the Pgpool-II configurations.
Specifies a user command to run when a PostgreSQL backend node gets attached to Pgpool-II. Pgpool-II replaces the following special characters with the backend specific information. before excuting the command.
Table 5-7. failback command options
| Special character | Description |
|---|---|
| %d | DB node ID of the attached node |
| %h | Hostname of the attached node |
| %p | Port number of the attached node |
| %D | Database cluster directory of the attached node |
| %M | Old master node ID |
| %m | New master node ID |
| %H | Hostname of the new master node |
| %P | Old primary node ID |
| %r | Port number of the new master node |
| %R | Database cluster directory of the new master node |
| %% | '%' character |
Note: You can run psql (or whatever command) against backend to retrieve some information in the script, but you cannot run psql against Pgpool-II itself, since the script is called from Pgpool-II and it needs to run while Pgpool-II is working on failover.
This parameter can be changed by reloading the Pgpool-II configurations.
Specifies a user command to run after failover on the primary node failover. This works only in Master Replication mode with streaming replication. Pgpool-II replaces the following special characters with the backend specific information before excuting the command.
Table 5-8. follow master command options
| Special character | Description |
|---|---|
| %d | DB node ID of the detached node |
| %h | Hostname of the detached node |
| %p | Port number of the detached node |
| %D | Database cluster directory of the detached node |
| %M | Old master node ID |
| %m | New primary node ID |
| %H | Hostname of the new primary node |
| %P | Old primary node ID |
| %r | Port number of the new primary node |
| %R | Database cluster directory of the new primary node |
| %% | '%' character |
Note: If follow_master_command is not empty, then after failover on the primary node gets completed in Master Slave mode with streaming replication, Pgpool-II degenerates all nodes excepted the new primary and starts new child processes to be ready again to accept connections from the clients. After this, Pgpool-II executes the command configured in the follow_master_command for each degenerated backend nodes.
Typically follow_master_command command is used to recover the slave from the new primary by calling the pcp_recovery_node command.
This parameter can be changed by reloading the Pgpool-II configurations.
When set to on, Pgpool-II considers the reading/writing errors on the PostgreSQL backend connection as the backend node failure and trigger the failover on that node after disconnecting the current session. When this is set to off, Pgpool-II only report an error and disconnect the session in case of such errors.
Note: It is recommended to turn on the backend health checking (see Section 5.8) when failover_on_backend_error is set to off. Note, however, that Pgpool-II still triggers the failover when it detects the administrative shutdown of PostgreSQL backend server. If you want to avoid a fail over even in this case, you need to specify DISALLOW_TO_FAILOVER on backend_flag.
This parameter can be changed by reloading the Pgpool-II configurations.
Note: Prior to Pgpool-II V4.0, this configuration parameter name was fail_over_on_backend_error.
Specifies the maximum amount of time in seconds to search for the primary node when a failover scenario occurs. Pgpool-II will give up looking for the primary node if it is not found with-in this configured time. Default is 300 and Setting this parameter to 0 means keep trying forever.
This parameter is only applicable in the streaming replication mode.
This parameter can be changed by reloading the Pgpool-II configurations.
If set to on, detach false primary node. The default is
off. This parameter is only valid in streaming replication
mode and for PostgreSQL 9.6 or
after since this feature
uses pg_stat_wal_receiver
.
If PostgreSQL 9.5.x or older
version is used, no error is raised, just the feature is
ignored.
If there's no primary node, no checking will be performed.
If there's no standby node, and there's only one primary node, no checking will be performed.
If there's no standby node, and there's multiple primary nodes, leave the primary node which has the youngest node id and detach rest of primary nodes.
If there are one or more primaries and one or more standbys,
check the connectivity between primary and standby nodes by
using pg_stat_wal_receiver
if PostgreSQL 9.6 or after. In
this case if a primary node connects to all standby nodes,
the primary is regarded as "true" primary. Other primaries
are regarded as "false" primary and the false primaries will
be detached if detach_false_primary is
true. If no "true" primary is found, nothing will happen.
When Pgpool-II starts, the checking of false primaries are performed only once in the Pgpool-II main process. If sr_check_period is greater than 0, the false primaries checking will be performed at the same timing of streaming replication delay checking.
This parameter is only applicable in the streaming replication mode.
This parameter can be changed by reloading the Pgpool-II configurations.
Failover can be performed in raw mode if multiple backend servers are defined. Pgpool-II usually accesses the backend specified by backend_hostname0 during normal operation. If the backend_hostname0 fails for some reason, Pgpool-II tries to access the backend specified by backend_hostname1. If that fails, Pgpool-II tries the backend_hostname2, 3 and so on.


Subscription lists are pushed to the {DOMAIN}/$SYS/subscriptions topic. The list below is updated as they change.


#include <db_cxx.h>int DbMpool::close();
The DbMpool::close method closes the memory pool.
Calling DbMpool::close does not imply a call to DbMpoolFile::sync, but does imply a call to DbMpoolFile::close for any remaining open files in the pool returned to this process by calls to DbMpoolFile::open.
In addition, if the dir argument to DbMpool::open was NULL and dbenv was not initialized using DbEnv::appinit, or the DB_MPOOL_PRIVATE flag was set, all files created for this shared region will be removed, as if the DbMpool::unlink method were called.
In multi-threaded applications, only a single thread may call the DbMpool::close method.
The DbMpool::close method either returns errno or throws an exception that encapsulates an errno on failure, and 0 on success.
The DbMpool::close method may fail and throw an exception for any of the errors specified for the following Berkeley DB and C library functions: abort(3), close(3), fcntl(3), fflush(3), fprintf(3), free(3), getpid(3), DbMpoolFile::close, memset(3), munmap(3), shmctl(3), shmdt(3), strlen(3), unlink(3), vfprintf(3), and vsnprintf(3).

"Mulsemedia"-based Collaborative Mixed/Virtual Reality Environments
Abstract
Multi-sensorial media – “mulsemedia” – involves multi-modal sensors,
using media such as video (2D as well as 3D), touch/haptic, GPS,
inertial and other wearable sensors, for generating and consuming data.
For instance, instructions might be delivered through head-mounted
displays based what users see (video processing), where the user is
(location sensing), and what the user is doing (wearable sensor data
processing). In such immersive applications, the content consumed by a
user is influenced greatly by the content s/he generated. However, this
aspect also shows the stark contrast in delay experienced – as we know,
there is no delay in experiencing the data generated by oneself whereas
there is a finite delay in experiencing the delays generated by the
collaborators. This results in vanishing role differences and delays
between content producers & consumers. More importantly, this
results in variations in experience depending on the type of modality
and the type of experience it causes – visual, aural, or physical
(touch, motor, etc). From the point of view of collaborative virtual
environments, it has been established that humans are more sensitive to
delays some of the sensorial media (e.g., haptic sensors). In this
tutorial, we identify and discuss the following research challenges in
handling these multi-sensorial media or “mulsemedia” data and
applications:
- What modalities do we combine
for pattern recognition? How do we combine the modalities – in terms of
different times at which they are generated as well as in terms of
their priorities?
- How do we use the recognized patterns to create mulsemedia-based immersive environments?
- How
do we design “flexible” synchronization methodologies that can consider
higher priorities for “sensitive” data while still managing to stay in
sync with other modalities data?
- When
multiple, distributed collaborators using multiple modalities are
involved in carrying out realtime tasks, how do we define “global
consistency” of operations being carried out?
- What
is the trade off between achieving this global consistency (assuming we
can define that) and the flexible synchronization strategies?

Situation Recognition from Multimodal Data
Abstract
Situation recognition is the problem of deriving actionable insights
from heterogeneous, real-time, big multimedia data to benefit human
lives and resources in different applications. This tutorial will
discuss the recent developments towards converting multitudes of data
streams including weather patterns, stock prices, social media, traffic
information, and disease incidents into actionable insights. This
builds upon a long history of multimedia research on building concept
recognition approaches like entity resolution, object detection, and
scene recognition, to understand different aspects of the observed
world. At the same time it pushes the envelope beyond detecting intra-media concepts
(i.e. those which manifest themselves, and can be detected within a
single media object e.g. a tree, or a chair in an image), to detecting real-world concepts
(i.e. those which occur in real world, are constantly evolving, and
inherently manifest themselves over heterogeneous multimedia streams
from numerous sources). For example, situation recognition goes beyond
the problem of creating a tree detector and/or testing it over millions
of images to that of using a stream of billions of images and other
available data to detect seasonal patterns, plant disease spreads,
deforestation trends, or global warming. This tutorial will bring
together the work by multiple researchers working in the area of
situation recognition both within and outside the multimedia research
community. The attendees would be introduced to the different
interpretations of situations across multiple fields, and how it builds
upon and extends the efforts on object detection, scene recognition and
so on. The tutorial will provide a review of recent efforts within the
multimedia community towards detecting real-time situations, along with
multiple practical situation recognition approaches, existing tools and
applications. Specific attention will be paid to discussing the
relevant open research challenges for the community to advance the
state of the art in situation recognition.

Quality of Experience in Multimedia Systems and Services: A Journey Towards the Quality of Life
Abstract
In computing and communications systems, quality is often difficult to
define. Attempts to understand this concept date back to Aristotle, who
included quality as one of his 10 categories of human apprehension. ISO
standard 8402:1986 defines quality as “the totality of features and
characteristics of a product or service that bears its ability to
satisfy stated or implied needs,” which embraces objective as well as
subjective parameters. In practice, however, quality could be compared
to the elephant in the famous Indian parable about a group of blind men
who each feels a different part of the animal and, thus, they disagree
as to what it looks like. Under the auspices of the European COST
(Cooperation in Science and Technology) framework, Action IC 1003, or
Qualinet – the European Network on Quality of Experience in Multimedia
Systems and Services (www.qualinet.eu) – defines quality as the outcome of an individual’s comparison and
judgment process. It includes perception, reflection about the
perception, and the description of the outcome. In contrast to
definitions which see quality as “qualitas”, i.e. a set of inherent
characteristics, we consider quality in terms of the evaluated
excellence or goodness, of the degree of need fulfillment, and in terms
of a “quality event” [which is] an observable occurrence ... determined
in space (i.e. where it occurs), time (i.e. when it occurs), and
character (i.e. what can be observed). The goal of this tutorial is to discuss three
aspects of quality suggested by this definition: an introduction to
quality of experience (QoE), applications of QoE with respect to
adaptive video streaming and sensory experience, and an approach
towards the quality of life (QoL) including the challenges quality
assessment poses to system designers. Slides

Graph Signal Processing for Image Compression & Restoration
Abstract
Graph signal processing (GSP) is the study of discrete signals that
live on structured data kernels described by graphs. By allowing a more
flexible graphical description of the underlying data kernel, GSP can
be viewed as a generalization of traditional signal processing
techniques that target signals in regular kernels—e.g., an audio clip
sampled periodically in time—while still providing a frequency domain
interpretation of the observed signals. Though an image is a regularly
sampled signal on a 2D grid, one can nonetheless consider an image or
an image patch as a graph-signal on a sparsely connected graph defined
signal-dependently. Recent GSP works have shown that such an approach
can lead to a compact signal representation in the graph Fourier
domain, resulting in noticeable gain in image compression and
restoration. Specifically, in this tutorial we will overview recent
advances in GSP as applied to image processing. We will first describe
how a Graph Fourier Transform (GFT)—a generalization of known
transforms like Discrete Cosine Transform (DCT) and Asymmetric Discrete
Since Transform (ADST)—can be defined in a signal-dependent manner and
leads to compression gain over traditional DCT for piecewise smooth
images, outperforming H.264 intra by up to 6.8dB. We will then describe
how suitable graph-signal smoothness priors can be constructed for a
graph-based image denoising algorithm, outperforming state-of-the-art
BM3D by up to 2dB for piecewise smooth images. Similar graph-signal
smoothness priors can also be used for other image restoration
problems, such as de-quantization of compressed JPEG images. Finally,
we will discuss how the graph Laplacian can be used as a
contrast-enhancement booster for images captured in poorly lit
environments that are also corrupted with noise.

High Efficiency Video Coding – Coding Tools and Specification: HEVC V3 and Coming Developments
Abstract
The tutorial covers the complete HEVC standard, including all currently
defined extensions (range extensions, scalability, multi-view, 3D video
coding, and screen content coding). It further covers the state of the
current activities on Free-Viewpoint Television and on High Dynamic
Range + Wide Color Gamut Coding. The standard is assessed from various
perspectives, including an algorithmic view on the video coding layer
as well as a high-level / system-layer view on the network abstraction
layer and the overall structure. The discussion includes a detailed
treatment of the HEVC layer concept which allows for seamless
incorporation of spatial and quality scalability as well as multi-view,
3D, or FTV extensions. The essential concepts and the coding tools
comprised in each of the extensions are detailed and explained in the
context of their respective application space. The tutorial further
discusses the basic structure of specification text from a more
abstract point of view as well as by concrete example in HEVC. For all
mentioned perspectives, the tutorial develops the topic in a
step-by-step fashion and gradually introduces concepts, algorithms, and
terminology. Examples are provided at all levels of the presentation
illustrating the concepts and deepening the understanding of the
presented technology. Various demos are presented to visualize the
algorithmic advancement. The tutorial is based on the book “High
Efficiency Video Coding: Coding Tools and Specification” by the
tutorial speaker which currently covers HEVC version 1. The tutorial
shall enable the participants to understand the design principles and
concepts behind the specification of HEVC. They shall recognize and
understand the innovation of HEVC compared to the previous standards
(esp. H.264/AVC) and regard the extensible nature of the specification
design. Slides

Interactive Search in Video & Lifelogging Repositories
Abstract
Due to increasing possibilities to create digital video, we are facing
the emergence of large video archives that are made accessible either
online or offline. Though a lot of research has been spent on video
retrieval tools and methods, which allow for automatic search in
videos, still the performance of automatic video retrieval is far from
optimal. At the same time, the organization of personal data is
receiving increasing research attention due to the challenges that are
faced in gathering, enriching, searching and visualizing this data.
Given the increasing quantities of personal data being gathered by
individuals, the concept of a heterogeneous personal digital libraries
of rich multimedia and sensory content for every individual is becoming
a reality. Despite the differences between video archives and personal
lifelogging libraries, we are facing very similar challenges when
accessing these multimedia repositories. For example, users will
struggle to find the information they are looking for in either
collection if they are not able to formulate their search needs through
a query. In this tutorial we will discuss (i) proposed solutions for
improved video & lifelog content navigation, (ii) typical
interaction of content-based querying features, and (iii) advanced
content visualization methods. Moreover, we will discuss and
demonstrate interactive video & lifelog search systems and ways to
evaluate their performance.

Pasta sauce
This is very simple pasta sauce.
Unlike modern store-bought sauces, there is no added sugar, only the subtle taste of San Marzano tomatoes.
Ingredients
- a can of San Marzano tomatoes (or home-grown with some extra pulp)
- onion or garlic
- olive oil
- oregano or basil (Dried or diced)
Directions
- Heat up olive oil on saucepan.
- Add and roast either diced or grated onion or crush and sliced garlic until translucent.
- Add San Marzano tomatoes, include the liquids from the can if possible.
- Simmer contents of the pan and crush the tomatoes on the pan with your instrument of choice.
- Additionally add desired herbs.

| Be TaskManager Documentation |
The plugin interface of Be TaskManager allows you to define additional performance information, which can be added to the performance view. This information is represented in an hierarchical namespace. Objects in the namespace are called "performance counter". These performane counter objects contain information needed to display the namespace in a hierachical listview. Each object also contains a "data provider". This object is queryed to display your performance information inside the graph view. This object returns the current value of the performance data.
The plugin API is inspired by COM. Therefore it seperates interface and implementation. If you aren't familiar with COM: an interface is simply a pure abstract base class. Implementing an interface means to derive a class from the interface base class and implement all is pure virtual functions.
This preliminary information and subject to change. I will ensure neigher binary nor source compablility with this interface. One of the next versions of Be TaskManager will include the final version of the plugin interface. Don't use this in production code.
Implement this interface to create your own performance counter. A performance counter is simply an object in the hierarchical namespace. Through this interface the user (this means: Be TaskManager) can request the children of this performance counter and its name and path.
There are two name for a performance counter: "internal name" and display name. The internal name is used to compose the path of the object and therefore has to be unique. The display name is displayed to the user and needs not to be unique. For example: if you want to display all teams in the namespace, you would use the name of the team as display name and the team id (because it's unique) as internal name. The internal name of a performance counter can be requested through InternalName(), the display name through Name().
ChildAt() and CountChildren() are normally implemented by calling the namespace's EnumChildren() and storing the returned children in a BList. The performance counter is responsible for deleting its children, when the object is destroyed.
class IPerformanceCounter
{
public:
IPerformanceCounter() {}
virtual ~IPerformanceCounter() {}
virtual int32 CountChildren() = 0;
virtual IPerformanceCounter *ChildAt(int32 i) = 0;
virtual IDataProvider *DataProvider() = 0;
virtual const char *Name() const = 0;
virtual const char *Path() const = 0;
virtual const char *InternalName() const = 0;
};
The following example shows a generic implementation of this interface:
|
You don't need to implement this interface. It's implemented by the taskmanager and passed to you as parameter.
You normally don't call any other method than EnumChildren. This method iterates over all plugins and calls their EnumChildren function. See IPerformanceCounterPlugin for details.
class IPerformanceCounterNamespace
{
public:
IPerformanceCounterNamespace() {}
virtual ~IPerformanceCounterNamespace() {}
virtual status_t EnumChildren(const char *path, BList *children) = 0;
virtual IDataProvider *DataProvider(const char *path) = 0;
virtual IPerformanceCounter *Root() = 0;
};
This interface allows you to add additional objects to the namespace. By implementing the EnumChildren function you can add new nodes to the namespace.
class IPerformanceCounterPlugin
{
public:
IPerformanceCounterPlugin() {}
virtual ~IPerformanceCounterPlugin() {}
virtual status_t EnumChildren(IPerformanceCounterNamespace *counterNamespace, const char *path, BList *children) = 0;
};
This example implementation adds two new nodes to the namespace. It uses the generic implementation of IPerformanceCounter shown above:
|
Every time the current value of your performance information object is needed Be TaskManager calls the function IDataProvider::GetNextValue(). This value is displayed to the user in the graph view. The implemenation of GetNextValue() is very simple. Simply set the passed reference ('value') to the current value. Return true if the call was successful, false if it wasn't. If you return false you should set value to 0.0 before you return.
The function Clone() returns an exact clone of the object. Equal() compares two data providers. If they are equal it returns true. Note: Don't simply compare pointers the when you implement this function. First try to cast the passed object to your implementation class (using dynamic_cast). If this succeeds you should compare all members.
class IDataProvider
{
public:
IDataProvider() {}
virtual ~IDataProvider() {}
virtual bool GetNextValue(float &value) = 0;
virtual uint32 Flags() = 0;
virtual uint32 Unit() = 0;
virtual BString DisplayName() = 0;
virtual IDataProvider *Clone() = 0;
virtual bool Equal(IDataProvider *other) = 0;
enum enumFlags {
DP_TYPE_ABSOLUTE = 1,
DP_TYPE_RELATIVE = 2,
DP_TYPE_PERCENT = 4,
DT_TYPE_HIDDEN = 8,
};
enum enumUnit {
DP_UNIT_NONE,
DP_UNIT_BYTE,
DP_UNIT_KILOBYTE,
DP_UNIT_MEGABYTE,
DP_UNIT_PAGES,
DP_UNIT_RPM,
DP_UNIT_DEGREES,
DP_UNIT_VOLT,
DP_UNIT_WATT,
DP_UNIT_AMPERE,
};
};
Flags:
| DP_TYPE_ABSOLUTE | The value returned by GetNextValue() is used "as-is" |
| DP_TYPE_RELATIVE | The returned value is divided by the time between the the last two calls of GetNextValue() in milliseconds. |
| DP_TYPE_PERCENT | The returned value is multiplyed by 100, before it's displayed to the user. If the result is out of the range [0,100] it is restricted to that range. |
| DT_TYPE_HIDDEN | Currently unused. |
The meaning of the unit value should be clear. The returned value is currently only used to display the correct unit symbol. The only exception is DP_UNIT_PAGES. If that unit is used the returned value is converted to kilobytes (multiplyed by B_PAGE_SIZE/1024) before it is displayed to the user.
A plugin is implemented as shared library. Be TaskManager loads all shared libraries in the "add_ons" directory during startup. Then it loads the exported function "CreateCounterPlugin" and calls it. That function must be declared like this:
extern "C" status_t __declspec(dllexport) CreateCounterPlugin(IPerformanceCounterPlugin **plugin);
Example implementation:
|
If you implement IDataProvider you normally should derive the implementation class from BArchivable. This is necessary because the data provider objects get archived, when the view is replicated. If your data provider isn't derived from BArchivable, it isn't displayed in the replicant.
To implement an archivable data provider follow the following steps:
Example implementation:

Place the blueberries and lemon juice into a small saucepan over a gentle heat. Cook until the blueberries are beginning to burst open and are softened.
Using a hand blender, blend the blueberries to a smooth purée and leave to cool.
To make the tart cases, place the biscuits and hazelnuts into a food processor and blend to a fine crumb consistency.
Add the melted butter and blend until well mixed in. Spoon out the mixture into the tartlet tins and press into the base and sides of the tins. Transfer to the fridge and chill for one hour.
Meanwhile, in a large bowl, whip the cream until it forms soft peaks.
Place the lemon curd into a bowl and add the blueberry purée and mix together well.
Add the blueberry mixture to the whipped cream and fold in gently, leaving a marbled, 'blueberry ripple' effect.
Carefully turn the chilled shortbread tart cases out of their tins onto plates and spoon the blueberry and lemon cream inside.
To serve, scatter over the extra blueberries and sprinkle with a little lemon zest to garnish.
