Digital heritage portal interfaces are generally similar to digital library and search engine interfaces in displaying search results as a list of brief metadata records. The knowledge organization and search result display of these systems are item-centric, with little support for identifying relationships between items. This paper proposes a knowledge graph system and visualization interface as a promising solution for digital heritage systems to support users in browsing related items, understanding the relationships between items, and synthesizing a narrative on an issue. The paper discusses design issues for the knowledge graph, graph database, and graph visualization, and offers recommendations based on the authors' experience in developing three knowledge graph systems for archive and digital humanities resources: the Zubir Said personal archive collection at the Nanyang Academy of Fine Arts, Singapore; Singapore Pioneers social network; and Polyglot Medicine knowledge graph of Asian traditional and herbal medicine. Lessons learned from a small user study are incorporated in the discussion. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Archival boxes are used as a preventive measure to control the microenvironment in museums and archives storages. However, their efficiency in protecting valuable artefacts from fluctuations in relative humidity (RH) is not yet fully understood. In this study, the environmental performance of different archival boxes with different configurations (size, design, presence of holes/paper material, cardboard types, surface modification) was included in the evaluation of internal environment (RH). The effectiveness of archival boxes on reducing relative humidity fluctuations was investigated by testing various properties of boxes and boards, such as air exchange rates (AER), moisture sorption and water vapour transmission rates (WVTR). While most cardboard boxes showed only a limited buffering against the humidity ingress, strategies such as surface modification limited the interaction of a box with the external environment, resulting in a more stable internal environment. Material and box properties, such as moisture sorption, AER and WVTR proved to be useful quantitative tools for assessing the environmental performance of the selected archival boxes.

4. MAKE PRINTS LAST.
- Subjects
PRINTMAKING ,COLOR printing ,ARCHIVES - Abstract
This article from Digital Photographer provides advice on how to extend the lifespan of printed photos. It explains that black-and-white prints generally have a longer lifespan than color prints due to the fading of color dyes over time. The article recommends using archive paper, pigment-based inks, and UV-protected framing glass to preserve the quality of prints. It also suggests storing prints in a climate-controlled area and wrapping them in acid-free tissue paper for maximum protection. The article emphasizes the importance of considering both short-term production and long-term display when preserving printed photos. [Extracted from the article]

In this paper we discuss the creation of the Stephen Hawking Archive through processes of collaboration, and human and technological mediation. We focus on the production of documents including scientific and popular writings, correspondence and lectures in different media and forms of communication from handwriting, diagrams and typing to word processing and digital communication. We consider these processes to think about what is important in the Stephen Hawking Archive, including where authorship is located, and what this shows about scientific collaboration and communication in the late twentieth and early twenty-first century. We also briefly consider how archivists have mediated the Archive since it was received by Cambridge University Library (CUL) in 2021 through its arrangement and description, and we look forward to developing the Archive in the future, including the possibility of acquiring further digital files to include in the Archive.

UNIDENTIFIED flying objects ,ARCHIVES ,COLLECTIONS ,RESEARCH personnel ,GOVERNMENT agencies ,PUBLIC libraries - Abstract
Although unidentified flying objects (UFOs) have long held the public's attention, most research has been conducted by federal agencies who have typically restricted access to such research by classifying or denying the research altogether.1 As a result, countless researchers have taken it upon themselves to investigate the phenomenon over the decades with some of this research making its way into publicly accessible archives. This study provides a history of UFO-related research and archival collections, through an examination of trends gleaned via an inventory of publicly accessible physical collections. The study found that within North America there are sixty-two unique, non-federal collections spread across universities, museums, public libraries, and historical societies. Twenty-two of these collections exclusively contain UFO research content. Collections were created by those who thought UFOs were misidentified objects (the original federal conclusion) and those who believed that there was more to the phenomenon. UFO archival collections started to catch on in the 1970s and are amongst the most popular at their institutions today. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

WOMEN mathematicians ,SCIENTIFIC knowledge ,ARCHIVAL research ,MODERNITY ,MATHEMATICS - Abstract
In this paper, I follow trails of the auto/biographical turn in the field of gender and science, particularly focusing on women mathematicians' epistolary narratives. The paper emerges from a wider Leverhulme funded project of writing a feminist genealogy of «automathographies», tracing women mathematicians' historical emergence as subjects of scientific knowledge, as well as creators of philosophy and culture. What I argue is that letters are important auto/biographical documents in illuminating women's epistemological and intellectual involvement in the making of scientific knowledge, which included the development of mathematical sciences, but was also expanded in the wider cultural formations of the European modernity. In doing so, I deploy the notion of «epistolary sensibility» as a methodological and epistemological approach to archival research with women mathematicians' letters. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

During the period from the 19th to the mid-20th centuries, colonial Singapore played a central role as an Asian trading hub. From 1965, the Republic of Singapore, as a sovereign nation, attempted to uphold its former colonial position of dominance. The efforts undertaken by the Singaporean elites proved to be highly effective, surpassing even the ideological conflict of the 1960s. This resulted in communist nations like the Soviet Union, China, North Vietnam, and North Korea expressing a desire to establish commercial trade relations with Singapore. In the 1950s and 1960s, North Korea stood out as an Asian nation that had achieved notable industrial advancements. North Korean leaders sought to utilize Singapore as a platform for disseminating its industrial products and economic achievements. The efforts made by North Korean communist leaders can be analyzed through various activities carried out between Singapore and North Korea. In the case of Singapore, its leaders aspired to broaden its trading horizons by establishing connections with socialist nations and adopting the insights gained from North Korean industrialization. Through primary sources of Singapore news articles, North Korean news articles, South Korean diplomatic archives, and CIA archives, this paper focuses on the mutual interactions of Singapore, the trading hub, and North Korea, the industrial estate.

An often overlooked aspect of New Jersey history is that of the Ku Klux Klan activities throughout the state during the 1920s. Driven by a resurgence of anti-immigration rhetoric, the diversity of urban centers, and the general fears of some white Protestant residents of New Jersey, the Klan targeted immigrants, participated in public demonstrations and parades, hosted social events, and attempted to intimidate Catholic politicians in particular. This paper will examine this aspect of New Jersey history by using underutilized sources like the George Moss Collection at Monmouth University’s Murry and Leonie Guggenheim Memorial Library. Hopefully, by understanding the influence the Klan had on local politics, the mistakes of the past can avoid being repeated. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This article explores the counterhegemonic uses of audiovisual media —such as film, video, and television— by migrant women workers, specifically focusing on the media tactics of self-representation used in the intersectional feminist activism of migrant women workers from the Turkish Republic in the Netherlands from 1975 to 1985. Through comprehensive archival research, it aims to historically contextualise and critically evaluate the archival conditions of this marginalised audiovisual heritage. Drawing on archival presences of extant film and television material as well as archival absences, such as lost and abandoned projects, the paper proposes to reconfigure the ‘audiovisual heritage’ of underrepresented communities at the intersection of race, gender, and class, whose archival presences are contingent, arbitrary, and fragmented. To address the specific condition of archival paucity concerning the audiovisual heritage of migrant women workers, the paper concludes with the new perspectives opened by a feminist media historiography of open questions, critical fabulation, and counterfactual speculation.

BACKYARD gardens ,TIMBER ,ARCHITECTURE ,SUSTAINABILITY ,GARDENS - Abstract
This paper presents an analytical framework for evaluating the impact of the two main processes identified in Madrid timber-framed courtyard buildings reinforcing the courtyard's crucial role in architectural heritage sustainability: their development caused dwellings to darken (1737–1950), and the existing challenge is to open new patios according to the listed buildings' protection policy. Critical findings in archival research and existing building assessments led to completed data collection and analysis. When exploring construction expansion, from the house towards the collective prototype around a gradually reduced patio and dwelling darkening (1737–1786), buildings resulted in open, semiopen, underlighted and closed designs. Study area on-site assessment uncovered the transition from the older low-rise type (1–3) floors to the modern closed model of up to (4–6) storeys. Construction enlargements, consequently reducing original green areas and courtyards, call for reversing that process or formulating a new strategy. It debates the partial demolition of listed buildings in upgrades and its agreement with the needed "blue courtyard" strategy (PGOUM), resulting from joining new rear individual patios to create a communal building block courtyard. The uncovered "in-between" type (1864), which integrates two open-air collective spaces, an inner courtyard and a back garden, appears challenging to explore. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper presents an improved metaheuristic technique inspired by the foundational concepts of the artificial bee colony (ABC) algorithm adapted to deal with multi-objective optimization challenges. Our approach combines the main ideas of ABC with a non-dominated sorting strategy including aspects of Pareto dominance, crowding distance, and greedy selection method. Furthermore, the chosen non-dominated solutions are archived in a repository with a static size. The presented approach, multiobjective artificial bee colony (MOABC), is compared to other state-of-theart algorithms including the non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm II (NSGA II) and the multi-objective particle swarm optimization (MOPSO). MOABC and selected algorithms from the literature are applied to five zitzler-deb-thiele (ZDT) Multi-objective benchmark functions. Then three key metrics are employed for performance evaluations: generational distance (GD), spread (SP), and hypervolume (HV). The simulation results suggest that the proposed method is competitive and presents an effective choice for tackling multi-objective optimization problems. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Introduction. Queer independent archives play a significant role in their communities, preserving and providing access to narratives that might otherwise be lost. Queer archives are assumed to be homogenous and thus representative, although some queer communities are not visible. Collaborations with GLAM institutions and universities have become more prevalent as the importance of supporting independent archives is recognised. Nevertheless, for many queer archives and their communities retaining autonomy in such collaborations is vital. Method. These issues were explored from the perspective of New Zealand's three queer independent archives through six semi-structured interviews conducted with representatives from each archive. Analysis. The analysis revealed a range of institutional collaborations, reflecting the needs and situation of each archive. Employing different collecting approaches to broaden community representation and record queer life experiences were priorities for the queer archives although with varying degrees of success. Conclusion. This paper highlights some of the challenges faced by queer archives regarding representation and visibility and how institutional collaborations could prove beneficial. Conversely, there may be drawbacks for queer archives, particularly during renegotiations, when power imbalances might become evident. A regular review might assist GLAMs to more gainfully support queer archives operating in an evolving queer space. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

When dealing with Constrained Multi-objective Optimization Problems (CMOPs) and struggling to enhance feasibility, convergence and diversity, the researchers of Constrained Multi-objective Optimization Evolutionary Algorithms (CMOEAs) gravitate toward feasibility or take precedence to preserve well-converged solutions ignoring diversity in the past. To compensate for the defects, the paper proposes CMOEA-MSWA to guide the search of infeasible regions by coordinated strategy of archive and weight vectors. Firstly, the archive carrying the information of population diversity updates the weight vectors. Secondly, the updated weight vectors perpetuate the diversity information to the search of infeasible regions. The circular effects between strategies promote the detection of infeasible solutions with good objectives and exhibit competitive performance in terms of spread and evenness. To testify the versatility the CMOEA-MSWA in enhancing diversity, the comprehensive performance is evaluated firstly and the diversity analysis of the CMOEA-MSWA is carried out on four benchmark suites with 34 test instances, where the number of objectives for some of test problems is scaled from three to five. In comparison with five state-of-the-art CMOEAs, the proposed algorithm yields highly competitive performance in diversity on different types of CMOPs. In addition, the effectiveness of collaboration between archive and weight vectors on handling infeasible solutions is also verified. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

On 22 May 2021, an earthquake (98.3° E and 34.59° N) struck Maduo town in Qinghai province, occurring along a relatively obscure secondary fault within the block. We utilized 105 archived Sentinel-1A/B acquisitions to investigate the coseismic deformation and the evolution of postseismic displacements in both the temporal and spatial domains, as well as the associated dynamic mechanisms of the 2021 Maduo earthquake. The interference fringes and coseismic deformation revealed that the primary feature of this event was the rupture along a left-lateral strike-slip fault. The released seismic moment was close to 1.88 × 10 20 N · m , which is equivalent to an Mw 7.45 event. Simultaneously, the maximum coseismic slip reached approximately 4 m along the fault plane. The evolution of postseismic displacements in both the temporal and spatial domains over 450 days following the mainshock was further analyzed to explore the underlying physical mechanisms. Generally, the patterns of coseismic slip and afterslip were similar, although the postseismic displacements decayed rapidly over time. The modeled afterslip downdip of the coseismic rupture (at depths of 15–40 km) effectively explains the postseismic deformation, with a released moment estimated at 4.57 × 10 19 N · m (corresponding to Mw 7.04). Additionally, we found that regions with high coseismic slip tend to exhibit weak seismicity, and that afterslip and aftershocks are likely driven by each other. Finally, we estimated the Coulomb Failure Stress changes ( Δ C F S ) triggered by both coseismic rupture and aseismic slip resulting from this event. The co- and postseismic Δ C F S show similar patterns, but the magnitude of the postseismic Δ C F S is much lower ( ≤ 0.01 MPa). We found that Δ C F S notably increased on the Yushu segment of the Garze-Yushu-Xianshuihe Fault (GYXF), as well as the Maqin–Maqu and Tuosuo Lake sections of the East Kunlun Fault (EKF). Therefore, we infer that these fault segments may have a higher potential seismic risk and should be carefully monitored in the future. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Large Language Models (LLMs) and Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) systems offer a new paradigm for querying and retrieving information, making the resource recovery processes more efficient and accurate due to their ability to learn and generate responses based on vast knowledge databases. This paper aims to demonstrate these systems in a simplified form to initiate a scientific discussion on the possibility of integrating these technologies into archival and bibliographic resource retrieval systems, and more broadly, into cultural heritage management.

The CERN Tape Archive (CTA) is the successor to CASTOR and the tape backend to EOS. It was designed to meet the needs of archival storage of data from LHC Run–3 and other experimental programmes at CERN. In the wider Worldwide LHC Computing Grid (WLCG), the tape software landscape is quite heterogeneous, but we are entering a period of consolidation. A number of sites have reevaluated their options and are choosing CTA for their future tape archival storage needs. However, CTA's original mandate imposed several design constraints which are not necessarily optimal for external sites. In this contribution, we show how CERN has engaged with the wider HEP community and collaborated on improvements which allow CTA to be adopted more widely. We detail community contributions to allow CTA to be used as the tape backend for dCache; to facilitate migrations from other tape systems such as OSM and Enstore; and improvements to CTA building and packaging to remove CERN-specific dependencies and to allow easy distribution to external sites. Finally, we present a roadmap for the community edition of CTA. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Solving nonlinear equation systems (NESs) is one of the most important tasks in numerical computing. The NESs usually have multiple roots, and quickly locating their roots in a single algorithm run with a limited number of iterations has always been the algorithm improvement direction. In order to further enhance the efficiency of the existing methods, a density clustering-based differential evolution algorithm (DCDE) for the NESs problem solving is proposed in this paper. Firstly, density-based spatial clustering of applications with noise (DBSCAN) is used to divide the population into clusters and noises, which provides a better direction for population evolution. Secondly, a cluster evaluation factor is proposed, which not only divides the clusters into excellent clusters and non-excellent clusters, but also prevents the migration of excellent clusters and maintain the diversity of populations. Then, a migration strategy and individual generation mechanism are proposed to guide non-excellent clusters to migrate to promising regions. Finally, combined with an archive technique, the individuals which satisfy the solution requirements are archived and randomly initialized to further improve population diversity. To verify the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm, comparative experimental results of the propsoed DCDE with other state-of-the-art algorithms for thirty NESs problems solving show that the proposed DCDE is the most effective algorithm to locate more roots in a single run.

This paper presents an analytical framework for evaluating the impact of the two main processes identified in Madrid timber-framed courtyard buildings reinforcing the courtyard's crucial role in architectural heritage sustainability: their development caused dwellings to darken (1737–1950), and the existing challenge is to open new patios according to the listed buildings' protection policy.Critical findings in archival research and existing building assessments led to completed data collection and analysis. When exploring construction expansion, from the house towards the collective prototype around a gradually reduced patio and dwelling darkening (1737–1786), buildings resulted in open, semiopen, underlighted and closed designs. Study area on-site assessment uncovered the transition from the older low-rise type (1–3) floors to the modern closed model of up to (4–6) storeys.Construction enlargements, consequently reducing original green areas and courtyards, call for reversing that process or formulating a new strategy. It debates the partial demolition of listed buildings in upgrades and its agreement with the needed “blue courtyard” strategy (PGOUM), resulting from joining new rear individual patios to create a communal building block courtyard. The uncovered “in-between” type (1864), which integrates two open-air collective spaces, an inner courtyard and a back garden, appears challenging to explore.

EVOLUTIONARY algorithms ,CONSTRAINED optimization ,ARCHIVES ,PROBLEM solving - Abstract
Constrained multi-objective optimization problems (CMOPs) are commonly encountered in engineering practice. The key to effectively solving these problems lies in achieving a timely balance between convergence, diversity, and feasibility during iterations. Furthermore, the appropriate utilization of infeasible solutions is crucial for identifying potential feasible regions. In order to accomplish this comprehensive objective, we propose a novel dual-stage constrained multi-objective evolutionary algorithm (CMOEA) called NACMOEA in this paper. It can be characterized by the following features: 1) Introducing a novel niche-based individual selection and infeasible solution utilization strategy to enhance convergence, diversity, and feasibility. 2) Presenting a cooperative search strategy assisted by dual archives to approximate the constrained Pareto front (CPF) from both feasible and infeasible perspectives, thereby improving the efficiency of obtaining the complete CPF. 3) Designing a new stage switch method based on non-dominant coverage rate to ensure proper completion of search stage switching. Extensive experiments demonstrate that NACMOEA exhibits competitive comprehensive performance when compared with other advanced CMOEAs. • The search process of the proposed NACMOEA is divided into two stages, where a new dual archive collaboration strategy is developed iteratively. • A niche-based environmental selection and an infeasible individual utilization strategy are designed to better balance the performance. • A novel non-dominant coverage rate metric is developed to facilitate appropriate switching in the search stage. • The proposed NACMOEA performs well compared to other advanced algorithms on various complex CMOP test problems.

The aim of this article is to elaborate on the overlooked strategy of historical ethnography. Drawing from the literature and sharing vignettes from my research at the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees archive, I advance in two stages. First, by reviewing key works, I provide an overview of historical ethnography, focusing mainly on its distinct characteristics: The historical reach and reliance on a wide range of materials. I also present the inductive-deductive debate to consider the role of theory. Then I provide informed reflections about the different research stages: Before, during, and after leaving the archival field. Becoming immersed in the subject matter prior to the actual empirical examination opens the path to the archives and to a meaningful data collection endeavor. In turn, informed decisions, rather than luck, fuel the ongoing movement between data collection and analysis. Lastly, acknowledging the interpretive mindset involved with thinking ethnographically, I present indexing and temporal coding as helpful strategies for organizing a large corpus of historical data.

The article discusses Manuel Covo's book "Entrepôt of Revolutions: Saint-Domingue, Commercial Sovereignty, and the French-American Alliance," which explores the role of Saint-Domingue in the French-American relationship and the impact of trade during the Age of Revolutions. The author acknowledges the challenges of writing a transnational history and expresses gratitude to the reviewers for their comments. The article also emphasizes the need for further research on the connections between French colonies and the commercial practices of newly freed individuals in Haiti. Covo's book examines the connections between the American Revolution, French colonial policy, and the history of capitalism, slavery, and sovereignty in the Atlantic world. The author argues that the creation of the United States had a significant impact on French colonial policy and calls for a global or transnational perspective when studying the history of revolutions, capitalism, and slavery. The book is seen as an invitation to move beyond the framework of the nation-state and understand the intertwined history of these topics. [Extracted from the article]

From the beginning of European overseas expansion in the fifteenth century, religious missions occupied an important place in the internal organisation of colonial empires. Their contribution to the ideological structuring of imperialism and the interaction with local populations is undeniable. With the emergence of the new imperialism and the scramble for Africa (after the 1870s), the missions, often anticipating the colonial political and administrative presence, enhanced their role as advocates of Europe's "civilising mission", above all through the education of the colonised peoples. For Portuguese decision-makers, the religious missions, with a multi-century tradition, had an important role in defending territorial claims overseas and promoting the empire's nationalisation. However, the lack of national missionaries, Christianity's inter-confessional competition in the nineteenth century and the emergence of international legal rules protecting missionary activities hindered Portugal's strategies. Using sources from several archives (in Lisbon, the Vatican, and elsewhere) to emphasise the role of a transnational missionary staff and the international law of missions, this text intersects these aspects, examining their convergence in the controversial case of the exit and replacement of Jesuit missionaries in Mozambique in 1910–1911, to demonstrate the need to look at the missionary issues in the Portuguese overseas domains from perspectives that go beyond nation and empire.

A new set of observations has been compiled for tsunamis occurring in Greece and in the surrounding areas from 1900 to 2023. A variety of information sources has been collected and examined, including scientific and press reports, books, eyewitness accounts, pictorial and video material, and tide-gauge records. New material was also collected during our field surveys in the islands of Cephalonia, Karpathos, and Kos. Our investigation included 26 distinct events and revealed several tsunamis. The majority of them have remained unknown so far in the tsunami community. Our compilation also included little-known events for which further documentation has been provided. Among others, of particular importance is the collection of new information about the well-known tsunami associated with the 9 February 1948 large earthquake in Karpathos Island as well as the unknown so far series of local but powerful tsunamis generated during the seismic crisis of very strong earthquakes that destroyed the Ionian islands during August 1953. The new observational material collected is significant for the enrichment of existing tsunami catalogs with positive implications for better understanding the tsunami generation mechanisms and the assessment of tsunami hazards and risks.

The paper presents a new balanced selection operator applied to the proposed Balanced Non-dominated Tournament Genetic Algorithm (B-NTGA) that actively uses archive to solve multi- and many-objective NP-hard combinatorial optimization problems with constraints. The primary motivation is to make B-NTGA more efficient in exploring Pareto Front Approximation (PFa), focusing on "gaps" and reducing some PFa regions' sampling too frequently. Such a balancing mechanism allows B-NTGA to be more adaptive and focus on less explored PFa regions. The proposed B-NTGA is investigated on two benchmark multi- and many-objective optimization real-world problems, like Thief Traveling Problem and Multi-Skill Resource-Constrained Project Scheduling Problem. The results of experiments show that B-NTGA has a higher efficiency and better performance than state-of-the-art methods. • New balanced GAP selection actively uses archive, focuses on Pareto Front 'gaps' to reduce too frequent sampling of regions. • B-NTGA bases and modifies NTGA2 (i.e., clone elimination, tournament as second selection) and adds balanced GAP selection. • B-NTGA is less time-consuming than NTGA2, uses fewer parameters, and is more efficient than NTGA2. • Experiments for NP-hard multi-objective optimization problems (TTP and MS-RCPSP) comparing B-NTGA to state-of-the-art methods. • Results of experiments showed that B-NTGA is highly effective for multi- and many-objective problems (like TTP and MS-RCPSP).

Various variants have been proposed to improve the search ability and efficiency of Differential Evolution (DE). However, the variants ignore the impact caused by the use of accumulated historical information, resulting in unpromising performance of the search. Furthermore, the global exploration and local exploitation ability of population is affected by the population number (NP), which commonly adapts with little adaptive control or with linear descendent only. To utilize more historical population information, we propose in this paper a novel adaptive population size-based DE (APSDE) by mining historical population information, to balance global exploration and local exploitation ability. APSDE uses historical population information to mine population distribution and extract information to assign parameters to the current population. Moreover, an archive is utilized to store the historical population information, where historical successful parameter information consists of scaling factor (F), crossover rate (CR) and NP for better balancing the search ability of population. To evaluate the performance of APSDE, we conduct experiments both on the 28 benchmark functions of CEC2017, the 10 benchmark functions of CEC2020, and a real-world application - the path planning of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). The experimental results have demonstrated that APSDE achieves the promising performance in both convergence accuracy and convergence speed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
