You might wonder why a computing society like UQCS would choose the Greek letter lambda (λ) to represent itself. It’s a decision we agonised over in 2020 when replacing the curly braces that had represented us since 2016. The simple answer is that the lambda is even more fundamental to programming than even the humble brace, and in the same way, we want UQCS to be fundamental to the student experience in computing at UQ.
To understand the criticality of the eleventh Greek letter to computers and computer science, we have to go back in time to 1930s Princeton University and a mathematics professor named Alonzo Church. In 1936, Church, as part of his work exploring the foundations of mathematics, introduced what would come to be known as the Lambda Calculus, a universal model of computation. He would later work with one of his doctoral students, Alan Turing (you might have heard of him), to prove its equivalence with another universal model Turing had later developed independently.
While Turing’s more approachable abstraction would go on to become the dominant influence in the development of what we think of today as “imperative” programming languages (C, COBOL, Fortran), many of the concepts introduced by Lambda Calculus live on in modern programming languages. This impact is most evident in functional languages like Haskell and Clojure, but a resurgence in the popularity of functional programming has led to more prevalent, object-oriented languages like Python and Java “borrowing” functional concepts like anonymous functions as well as operations like map, reduce, and filter. This critical influence is why students will still learn Lambda Calculus in courses like UQ’s Theory of Computing (COMP2048) and Functional & Logic Programming (COMP3400), and why UQCS is proud to use Church’s lambda to represent our society.

FIRE A film review by Steve Rhodes Copyright 1997 Steve Rhodes
RATING (0 TO ****): **
Newlywed Sita has her dreams, and, modest though they may be, she doesn't seem likely to fulfill them. Trapped in a loveless, arranged marriage in which her husband keeps only his mistress's picture in his wallet, she sees little hope for happiness.
Sita tells her new sister-in-law Radha of her wish of someday seeing the ocean. Radha, stuck in a 13-year-old marriage with her husband who took a vow of celibacy when she proved infertile, tells Sita wistfully, "I wanted to see the ocean once, but..." And her voice trails off into a dream-like state until she interrupts herself to discuss more mundane subjects.
FIRE, director Deepa Mehta's film of Indian middle-class passions and constraints, stars the lovely actresses Nandita Das as Sita and Shabana Azmi as Radha. Their simplistic tale of woe will elicit your compassion, but the thin story wanes by the second half, leaving little to remember except for A.R. Rehman's mystical Indian music and Aradhana Seth's magical, urban sets of neon-lit storefronts.
Sita's husband Jatin, played debonairly but coldly by Jaaved Jaaffery, wishes the arranged marriage had never happened. He has a Chinese mistress with whom he spends most of his evenings and his money.
Sita and Jatin live with Jatin's brother Ashok (Kulbhushan Kharbanda), his wife Radha, and their aged mother Biji (Kushal Rekhi), who after a major stroke does "no talking but much listening."  Actually, all of the men in the story ignore the women unless they want something like their next meal. And while Sita fasts in a religious ceremony to give her husband long life, her husband wiles away the evening eating delicacies at an expensive restaurant with his mistress.
Eventually, the women turn to each other's arms as their only hope of solace. ("There is no word in our language to describe what we are and what we feel for each other," Radha tells Sita.) Their lesbian affair is filmed by cinematographer Giles Nuttgens in a beautiful haze. In contrast, the film's heterosexual liaisons are made to look harsh and brutal, which in this story they are.
Although the acting is pleasant enough, the script by the director suffers from a paucity of ideas. His characters are handsomely outlined but never adequately filled in.
After a strange ending with an ambiguous and confusing message, the ending credits roll. The lasting impression of the film is not of people but of images.
FIRE runs 1:41. It is in English and is not rated but would be R for sex, brief nudity, and mature themes. It would be acceptable for teenagers only if they are older and mature. Although it is a handsome film, there is not enough compelling content for me to be to be able to recommend it. I give it **.
**** = A must see film. *** = Excellent show. Look for it. ** = Average movie. Kind of enjoyable. * = Poor show. Don't waste your money. 0 = Totally and painfully unbearable picture.

It took 'em three sequels, but they finally accomplished it: A $100 million Batman movie that's as cheesy as the old TV series. Audiences have supposedly been begging for a lighter tone in these movies (though you wouldn't guess it from the grosses). But when Batman and Robin shows the duo skiing through the skies on makeshift surfboards, and you actually hear the line "Today Gotham, tomorrow the world!", Adam West starts to look downright Shakespearean.
Since a plot summary of a Batman movie would be superfluous at this point, let's cover the main topics.
* Villains - The movie is 50-50 on this point. Arnold Schwarzenegger is near-perfection as Mr. Freeze, but the movie's chief liability is Uma Thurman as Poison Ivy. When Thurman swings her teeny hips and tries for Mae West double-entendres, she recalls some of Ginger's lesser seductions of Gilligan. (Scriptwriter Akiva Goldsman must be a big "Gilligan's Island" fan, because darned if the antidote to Ivy's lethal kiss isn't lifted directly from a "Gilligan" episode. I'm embarrassed to admit I know that, but it's true.)
* Central Miscasting - With her baby-fat cheeks and monotone delivery, Alicia Silverstone is a zero as Batgirl. She has the same problem as Meg Ryan in Addicted to Love: Ms. All-American trying to come off like Madonna. And why is supermodel Elle Macpherson, who ably proved her acting chops in Sirens, reduced to practically a walk-on as Batman's latest love interest? I'd have believed her as Poison Ivy in a heartbeat.
* The New Batman - Many have compalined about how enigmatic Batman has been in these movies, but I thought was part of his point (and his appeal). George Clooney's effort to "humanize" Batman consists mainly of smiling a lot.
* The Unsung Hero of the Batman Movies - Once again, Michael Gough as butler Alfred acts everyone else off the screen just by underplaying. Director Joel Schumacher seems to have forgotten that the human element needs to be found amidst the special-effects chaos. Forget Batgirl--I'm ready for Alfred to join the Batcrew!
Batman and Robin is rated PG-13 for intense situations and violence.

Gary Delaney: ‘The Beach Boys were driving around Solihull in tanks trying to kill me’
by Harriet GibsoneThe standup and writer on the things that make him laugh the most
The funniest sketch I’ve ever seen …
Victoria Wood and Julie Walters: The Waitress sketch. The simplicity of it is amazing. One great idea, one great performer and the rest sorts itself out. Perfect.
The funniest film I’ve ever seen …
Airplane! by Zucker-Abrahams-Zucker. I love their editing discipline. A joke that didn’t get a laugh at previews was automatically cut out.
The funniest person I know …
[Comic and Delaney’s wife] Sarah Millican. And I’d still say that even if I didn’t have to.
The funniest heckle I’ve ever had …
Sunny afternoon gig in a tent for bikers: one slips round the back for a sneaky wee, inadvertently creating a very graphic shadow puppet behind me on the stage. Like a Hells Angel Manneken Pis.
The funniest meal I’ve ever eaten …
Frogs’ legs.
The funniest dream …
The Beach Boys were driving around Solihull in tanks trying to kill me, and I had to find a swimming pool to hide in. Terrifying at the time.
The funniest thing that shouldn’t be funny …
Children falling over. I’d watch a whole show of this. With a voiceover by Harry Hill. Oh, hang on, I’ve just invented You’ve Been Framed!.
The funniest joke I’ve ever heard …

Astronomers claim to have discovered the roundest natural object in space ever measured - a slowly rotating star 5,000 light years away from the Earth.
Researchers including Laurent Gizon from the Max Planck Institute for Solar System Research and the University of Gottingen in Germany succeeded in measuring the oblateness of the star Kepler 11145123 with unprecedented precision.
The researchers determined stellar oblateness using asteroseismology - the study of the oscillations of stars.
The technique showed that the difference between the equatorial and polar radii of the star is only three kilometres (km) - a number that is astonishing small compared to the star's mean radius of 1.5 million km; which means that the gas sphere is astonishingly round.
All stars rotate and are therefore flattened by the centrifugal force.
The faster the rotation, the more oblate the star becomes.


The aim of this short introduction about equilibrium prices is to get across the essential modeling elements necessary to formalise them more carefully into economic dynamic concepts that are used to treat their condition of stability to understand their exhibiting oscillatory behaviour.
In general, equilibrium price is established when demand equals supply when the determination of equilibrium conditions are relied on choices made by agents as investors, firms, households, central banks and so on. A discussion about the existence of this equilibrium price in a competitive economy is in the work of Kenneth J. Arrow and Gerard Debreu.
A modern elaboration of this work for financial asset pricing is called Stochastic Discounting Factor Models when the no-arbitrage condition is assumed to secure the existence of security market equilibrium in an economy where all agents have access to the same information set.
Stochastic Discounting Factor Models
This modern asset pricing theory is mainly focusing at understanding the prices of future claims that are subject to
future uncertainty. In the presence of any payoff uncertainty when undertaking an investment venture, investors will typically ask for risk compensation, and thus for some investment-specific return, which will discount the expected future payoff stream.
Importantly enough, the valuation process that investors undergo for investments with uncertain payoff typically depends on their statistical views on possible future outcomes, preferences as their attitudes toward risk, and, of course, the payoff structure itself.
The equilibrium price is then an averaging discounting payoffs under different "states of affairs" and weighing them according to the investors's probabilities and marginal preference structures. The equilibrium prices of multi-assets portfolios serve also to identify the fundamental differences in risk premia patterns between them that give rise to differences in their average returns via the variances and covariance operators, which captures the risk adjustment for risky assets in multi-assets portfolios.
The challenge in this modern asset pricing theory lies on the adequate identification of the investor’s probability and marginal preference structures and risk factors that are able to model empirically the actual Stochastic Discounting Factor Models (SDFm) from a given market data-sets. In practice it is presumably infeasible to capture simultaneously all influencing factors in the actual SDFm from the data. Usually, a parametrization of SDFm is expressed as a function of the marginal rate of substitution of consumption of the investors. But most elementary parametrization stop at this point.
Machine Learning Perspective
Equilibrium prices of multi-assets portfolios are stochastic processes represented by time series exhibiting oscillatory behaviors. It is useful for financial and economic purposes to have a convenient way of summarizing the "average" behavior of such processes over time, see the work of Carl Futia.
The starting point of this analysis is a set of economic states(system) representing a number of multi-assets portfolios. The dynamics of this system are stochastic, governed by transition probabilities derived via a Machine Learning perspective* to characterise the SDFm, either due to intrinsic randomness in the equilibrium prices of the system or to the unpredictable influence of choices made by agents.
(*) An essential role that Machine Learning perspective can play in this modern asset pricing theory is to identify automatically from market data-sets the fundamental differences in risk premia patterns between multi-assets portfolios that give rise to differences in their average returns. For instance, to deduce similar correlated assets to the actual pricing structure of SDFm that may help to assess how the exposures of these assets to major intervention in the economy, as unconventional monetary policy, macroeconomic shocks, new trading strategies, new policies and so on, are priced.
Using non-linear Machine Learning modeling is to take into consideration higher order terms that are important when analysing equilibrium prices and related financial variables as risk premia or asset returns. Also in order to characterize non discernible SDF without committing to a particular asset pricing model, i.e., a marked departure from the statistical artifact hypothesis.
Therefore, the aim is to use machine learning as an integrative part of the modern asset pricing theory, offering automated procedures for the characterization of Stochastic Discount Factor Models based on past market data-sets observations, unraveling
underlying patterns in equilibrium prices data and providing insights about the problem of asset pricing under uncertainty as transition probabilities that are governing the dynamics of the system representing a number of multi-assets portfolios.
Limiting Behaviors
The system is determined by a set of time-dependent parameters, which may be thought of as a set of indicators of its macroscopic aspect summarising the dynamic behaviour implied by transition probabilities.
The initial knowledge of the system is characterized by some limiting stationary distribution of the transition probability as an equilibrium where the system settles down and, once there, there is no reason for the system to move. However, the financial assets still interact in an unknown way, exhibiting new equilibrium prices, .i.e, change in the entries of the corresponding transition probability, resulting in structural changes in the underlying pricing processes of the financial assets and vice versa. Therefore the system again temporally evolves stochastically into new transition probabilities with new limiting stationary distributions.
This comparative statics using equilibrium prices to derive transition probabilities and to estimate the limiting stationary distributions is a financial model to assess nonlinear relationships between the crucial elements of the financial assets system one is interested in. An important attention is to know what happens to the transition probabilities and their associated sequence of entropy over time.
Given finite number of financial assets, this empirical analysis(EA) is to assess these limiting stationary distribution behaviors of consecutive perturbed transition probability matrices obtained by using Machine Learning perspectives based on the Stochastic Discount Factor Models.
Considering the last 252 days where each day is representing a perturbed transition probability matrix. This EA determines how the limiting stationary distributions and their associated entropies change through daily perturbation:

Projection rays (projectors) emanate from a Center of Projection (COP) and intersect Projection Plane (PP). The COP for parallel projectors is at infinity. The length of a line on the projection plane is the same as the "true Length".
There are two different types of parallel projections:
If the direction of
projection is perpendicular to the projection plane then it is an
orthographic projection. If the direction of projection is not
perpendicular to the projection plane then it is an oblique
projection.
Look at the parallel projection of a point (x, y, z). (Note the left handed coordinate system). The projection plane is at z = 0. x, y are the orthographic projection values and xp, yp are the oblique projection values (at angle a with the projection plane)
Look at orthographic projection: it is simple, just discard the z coordinates. Engineering drawings frequently use front, side, top orthographic views of an object.
Here are three orthographic views of an object.
Orthographic projections that show more than 1 side of an object are called axonometric orthographic projections. The most common axonometric projection is an isometric projection where the projection plane intersects each coordinate axis in the model coordinate system at an equal distance.
Isometric Projection
The projection plane intersects the x, y, z axes at equal distances and the projection plane Normal makes an equal angle with the three axes.
To form an orthographic projection xp = x, yp= y , zp = 0. To form different types e.g., Isometric, just manipulate object with 3D transformations.
Oblique Projection
The projectors are not perpendicular to the projection plane but are parallel
from the object to the projection plane The projectors are defined by two angles
A and d where:
A = angle of line (x,y,xp,yp) with projection plane,
d =
angle of line (x, y, xp, yp) with x axis in projection plane
L = Length of
Line (x,y,xp,yp).
Then:
cos d = (xp - x) / L ------> xp = x + Lcos d ,
sin d = (yp -
y) / L ------> yp = y + Lsin d ,
tan A = z / L
Now define L1 = L / z ----> L= L1 z , so tan A = z / L = 1 / L1 ; xp = x + z(L1cos d) ; yp = y + z(L1sin d)
|1 0 0 0 | P = |0 1 0 0 | |L1cosq L1sinq 1 0 | |0 0 0 1 |
Now if A = 90° (projection line is perpendicular to PP) then tanA = infinity => L1 = 0, so have an rthographic projection.
Two special cases of oblique projection
A) A = 45° , tanA = 1 => L1 =
1 This is a Cavalier projection such that all lines
perpendicular to the projection planeare projected with no change in length.
B) tanA = 2, A= 63.40°, L1 = 1 / 2
Lines which are perpendicular to the
projection planeare projected at 1 / 2 length . This is a
Cabinet projection.

Met Office forecasts freezing weather for Wales as polar air hits the UK
Temperatures will end the week a far cry from where they started
by Jillian MacMathAfter an unsettled start to the week, polar air will surge into Wales by Thursday sending temperatures plummeting.
Those heading out to Christmas markets and Black Friday shopping will be in for quite a shock with temperatures in the single digits late this week.
But before the arrival of cold air, an unsettled weather pattern will grip much of the country.
The Met Office has issued yellow weather warnings for rain across south Wales on Tuesday and Wednesday, as heavy showers threaten to drench commuters and snarl traffic.
Downpours may also lead to flooding where up to 40mm of rain fall through Wednesday afternoon.
But a shift in the weather pattern is forecast for the latter half of the week, which will leave Wales feeling much more like mid-winter than late autumn.
Met Office spokesman Oli Claydon said: "In terms of a broad outlook, certainly for the main part of this working week, it will remain unsettled and relatively mild.
"But there are indications that at the end of the week we'll see colder conditions moving into the whole of the UK."
A large area of high pressure is forecast to slowly sink southward, allowing notably cooler air to move into northern Wales on Thursday, especially overnight, he said.
That high pressure will shift farther south from Friday into Saturday afternoon.
Where temperatures readings were in the mid teens early in the week, the mercury is likely to drop several degrees by Friday.
"In north Wales, we're looking at 10 or 11 degrees possibly [in the early part of the week]," Claydon said.
"That starts to move into the single digits by Friday, and the nights will be even colder."
Rural northern areas of the country will drop to freezing from Friday into Saturday.
In Aberystwyth, which will hover around 13 degrees early this week, highs will sink to seven or eight degrees by Saturday and Sunday.
Overnight, lows are expected to be a chilly three degrees.
Father south, including in Cardiff, temperatures in the lower teens on Monday will drop to a high of just six degrees by Sunday.
The polar air will send commuters and early rising Black Friday shoppers reaching for scarves and gloves late this week.
Those who have held out on using the heating so far this season may well give in by the weekend.
Will the cold air stick around?
Forecasters say it's too soon to tell whether the cold air will stick around into next month, but it will certainly hang on to close out the week.
After Sunday, there's much less certainty about the forecast.
As the calendar flips to December, signs suggest temperatures will remain rather cold, especially in the north of the UK, according to the Met Office.
Their long-range prediction suggests rather cold air will remain entrenched in the north, with widespread frost and ice likely.
"The beginning of December looks to remain cold for many, as the potential for wintry showers in the north continues and may spread to higher ground in the south," it said.
Here's what to expect this week where you live:

COVID-19 has brought more people in the New York area into contact with seals, and it can be a problem for both species.
Impressive beach crowds and high numbers of seals flocking to Staten Island and the Rockaways have led to increased seal encounters during the pandemic, according to local animal rehabilitation organization, the New York Marine Rescue Center.
“A lot of our seals were at normal beaches that would be less populated,” said Rescue Program Director, Maxine Montello. “But because of COVID and everybody coming out here earlier in the year, we had patrons that maybe had never crossed with seals and were super interested in these animals.”
The Rescue Center has responded to its highest number of calls for seals involving human interaction in a decade, with a high number coming in from Long Island and the Rockaways. In 2020, the Rescue Center investigated 16 human interaction cases, an increase of 45% from last year’s total. Seven of these cases involved direct harassment.
After a lull of cases in 2012, numbers started to climb in 2013, with an increase of 433% over the past 7 years.


MVC Horse was established after the realization that analytics and expression, if defined associatively, can be complimentary to each other.
The the relationship between the Founders of MVC Horse, Michael and Valentina Stratton, validate that the "associative theory of analytics and expression, has some basis in reality. Valentina has a B.A. in Psychology and Michael's background is in Computer Science and Math.
It is from Valentina's passion for helping humanity that the drive for technological change is born. It is from Michael's persistence to achieve technical perfection MVC Horse is able to embrace any software project with great efficiency.

Protocol
Mock
public protocol Mock
All generated mocks conform to this protocol.
Relationships
Types Conforming to Mock
StaticMock
Used to store invocations on static or class scoped methods.
Default Implementations
useDefaultValues(from:)
@discardableResult
func useDefaultValues(from valueProvider: ValueProvider) -> Self
Adds a value provider returning default values for unstubbed methods to this mock.
Mocks are strict by default, meaning that calls to unstubbed methods will trigger a test failure. Methods returning Void do not need to be stubbed in strict mode.
let bird = mock(Bird.self)
print(bird.name) // Fails because `bird.getName()` is not stubbed
bird.fly() // Okay because `fly()` has a `Void` return type
To return default values for unstubbed methods, use a ValueProvider
with the initialized
mock. Mockingbird provides preset value providers which are guaranteed to be backwards
compatible, such as .standardProvider
.
bird.useDefaultValues(from: .standardProvider)
print(bird.name) // Prints ""
You can create custom value providers by registering values for types. See Providable
for
how to provide "wildcard" instances for generic types.
var valueProvider = ValueProvider(from: .standardProvider)
valueProvider.register("Ryan", for: String.self)
bird.useDefaultValues(from: valueProvider)
print(bird.name) // Prints "Ryan"
Values from concrete stubs always have a higher precedence than default values.
given(bird.getName()) ~> "Ryan"
print(bird.name) // Prints "Ryan"
bird.useDefaultValues(from: .standardProvider)
print(bird.name) // Prints "Ryan"
Parameters
| Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| valueProvider | ValueProvider |
A value provider to add. |
Requirements
mockMetadata
var mockMetadata: MockMetadata
Static metadata about the mock created at generation time.

The 5th IEEE International Workshop on High-Performance Big Data and Cloud Computing
In conjunction with The 33rd IEEE International Parallel and Distributed Processing Symposium (IPDPS 2019)
In Hilton Rio de Janeiro Copacabana, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, Monday, May 20th, 2019
Managing and processing large volumes of data, or Big Data, and gaining meaningful insights is a significant challenge facing the parallel and distributed computing community. This has significant impact in a wide range of domains including health care, bio-medical research, Internet search, finance and business informatics, and scientific computing. As data-gathering technologies and data sources witness an explosion in the amount of input data, it is expected that in the future massive quantities of data in the order of hundreds or thousands of petabytes will need to be processed. Thus, it is critical that data-intensive computing middleware (such as Hadoop, Spark, Flink, etc.) to process such data are diligently designed, with high performance and scalability, in order to meet the growing demands of such Big Data applications.
The explosive growth of Big Data has caused many industrial firms to adopt High Performance Computing (HPC) technologies to meet the requirements of huge amount of data to be processed and stored. The convergence of HPC, Big Data, and Deep Learning is becoming the next game-changing business opportunity. Apache Hadoop, Spark, gRPC/TensorFlow, and Memcached are becoming standard building blocks in handling Big Data oriented processing and mining.
Modern HPC bare-metal systems and Cloud Computing platforms have been fueled with the advances in multi-/many-core architectures, RDMA-enabled networking, NVRAMs, and NVMe-SSDs during the last decade. However, Big Data and Deep Learning middleware (such as Hadoop, Spark, Flink, and gRPC) have not embraced such technologies fully. These disparities are taking HPC, Big Data, and Deep Learning into divergent trajectories.
International Workshop on High-Performance Big Data, Deep Learning, and Cloud Computing (HPBDC), aims to bring HPC, Big Data processing, Deep Learning, and Cloud Computing into a convergent trajectory. The workshop provides a forum for scientists and engineers in academia and industry to present their latest research findings in major and emerging topics for 'HPC + Big Data + Deep Learning over HPC Clusters and Clouds'.
HPBDC 2019 will be held in conjunction with the 33rd IEEE International Parallel and Distributed Processing Symposium (IPDPS 2019), Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, Monday, May 20th, 2019.
HPBDC 2019 welcomes original submissions in a range of areas, including but not limited to:
Papers should present original research. As the fields of Big Data, Deep Learning, and Cloud Computing span many disciplines, papers should provide sufficient background material to make them accessible to the broader community. One outstanding paper will be selected for the Best Paper Award.
This award will be given to the author(s) of the paper selected by the Technical Program Committee and the Program Chairs. The award will be determined from viewpoints of the technical and scientific merits, impact on the science and engineering of the research work and the clarity of presentation of the research contents in the paper.
All submissions should follow the IEEE standard 8.5” x 11” two-column format. The workshop will accept traditional research papers (8-10 pages) for in-depth topics and short papers (4-8 pages) for works in progress on hot topics.
All the papers should be submitted through https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=hpbdc2019.
All papers will be carefully reviewed by at least three reviewers. Papers should not be submitted in parallel to any other conference or journal.
The proceedings of this workshop will be published together with the proceedings of other IPDPS 2019 workshops by the IEEE Computer Society Press. Proceedings of the workshops are distributed at the conference and are submitted for inclusion in the IEEE Xplore Digital Library after the conference. At least one of the authors of each accepted paper must register as a participant of the workshop and present the paper at the workshop, in order to have the paper published in the proceedings.
