How small states acquire status: A social network analysis
Phil Baxter,Jenna Jordan,Jenna Jordan 한국외국어대학교 국제지역연구센터 2018 International Area Studies Review Vol.21 No.3
A number of recent studies have recognized the importance of status in international politics. While this developing scholarship has largely focused on great and middle powers, the pursuit of status by small states remains underexplored. For example, many studies claim that small states such as Qatar ‘punch above their weight’ in international politics in pursuit of status. How do small states without significant military power acquire status? How can we assess change in status over time? This paper argues that small states can acquire status by increasing their involvement in international politics and one way states can do this is through mediation efforts. Acting as a mediator for international conflict can enhance a small state’s status relative to its peers by demonstrating its relevance and importance in the regional and international system. This public act of mediation produces commonly held beliefs that the mediator state is an influential player in the international system, thus conferring it more status. Social network analysis reveals that as a state increases its international engagement through mediation activities, it can occupy a more central position in important networks, and a higher ranking within its peer group, indicating an increase in status. This increase in status can be translated to greater influence in international politics.
Swimmer’s Ear Emulating Kinetic Sound Using Headphones and Sounds of Water
John Baxter(존 백스터) 한국전자음악협회 2021 에밀레 Vol.19 No.-
사람과 테크놀로지의 사이 새로운 인터페이스를 탐구하면서, 종종 머리와 귀를 무시할 때가 있다. 이 연구에서는 참가자의 머리를 어떤 물질의 소리를 담는 용기로 간주하고, 머리의 움직임을 추적하며, 그 물질을 조작한다. 이러한 과정을 반복하여 유저의 머리를 물소리로 가득 채웠다. 유저는 자신의 머리를 움직이거나, 좌우로 기울이고, 이에 따라 물소리가 나게 된다. 몰입환경과 치료에 활용되는 것에 대하여도 논의한다. In searching for new interfaces between human and technology, the head and ears can often go ignored. In this project, the head of a participant was thought of as a container, able to be filled with the sounds of a material and, by tracking the movement of the head, this material could be manipulated. In this iteration of the project, the user’s head was filled with sounds of water. The user could move his/her head, tilting it to the left and right, and the sound of water would behave accordingly. Uses for immersive environments and therapeutic applications are discussed.

As the world struggles to emerge from the Global Financial Crisis the vision of a harmonious framework of global financial regulation seems as distant as ever. Important progress made by international committees such as the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision and the Financial Stability Board notwithstanding, there seem to be increasing signs of unilateral, extraterritorial action by major jurisdictions, including the United States. This paper reviews the framework created by the US financial reforms, in particular anti money laundering provisions, the Volcker Rule and the proposed OTC derivatives margin requirements, and considers some of the dilemmas presented by modern global banking and its concomitant regulation. The conclusion is that we are likely to see more regional reforms that are not necessarily uniform, and that this might not be a bad result, given the complexity of the financial markets and the need to respond flexibly to evolving circumstances.
Constructing de Bruijn sequences with co-lexicographic order: The k -ary Grandmama sequence
Dragon, Patrick Baxter,Hernandez, Oscar I.,Sawada, Joe,Williams, Aaron,Wong, Dennis Elsevier 2018 European journal of combinatorics : Journal europ& Vol.72 No.-
<P><B>Abstract</B></P> <P>A k -ary de Bruijn sequence of order n is a circular k -ary string of length <SUP> k n </SUP> which contains every k -ary string of length n exactly once as a substring. It is well-known that a k -ary de Bruijn sequence of order n can be constructed by concatenating the aperiodic prefixes of the k -ary necklaces of length n in lexicographic order. In this article we prove that an alternate de Bruijn sequence is created by replacing lexicographic order with co-lexicographic order. We also provide a simple successor rule for generating each successive symbol in O ( n ) -time.</P>
Clinical Effectiveness of Laser Acupuncture: A Systematic Review
G. David Baxter,Chris Bleakley,Suzanne McDonough 사단법인약침학회 2008 Journal of Acupuncture & Meridian Studies Vol.1 No.2
The use of laser light as an alternative to needles to stimulate acupuncture points has been promoted for almost three decades. However, there has been no systematic assessment of the evidence to support the effectiveness of this form of acupuncture to date. A systematic review was therefore undertaken of RCTs evaluating laser acupuncture as a primary intervention. Relevant studies (n = 18) were identified using computer-based literature searches and selected hand searches. Evidence was found to support the use of laser acupuncture in the treatment of myofascial pain, postoperative nausea and vomiting and for the relief of chronic tension headache. Laser acupuncture would appear to represent an effective form of acupuncture for the management of these conditions and could be considered as a viable alternative to more traditional forms of acupuncture point stimulation.
