Book Description
The ways in which memories of the Holocaust have been communicated, represented and used have changed dramatically over the years. From such memories being neglected and silenced in most of Europe until the 1970s, each country has subsequently gone through a process of cultural, political and pedagogical awareness-rising. This culminated in the ‘Stockholm conference on Holocaust commemoration’ in 2000, which resulted in the constitution of a task force dedicated to transmitting and teaching knowledge and awareness about the Holocaust on a global scale. The silence surrounding private memories of the Holocaust has also been challenged in many families. What are the catalysts that trigger a change from silence to discussion of the Holocaust? What happens when we talk its invisibility away? How are memories of the Holocaust reflected in different social environments? Who asks questions about memories of the Holocaust, and which answers do they find, at which point in time and from which past and present positions related to their societies and to the phenomenon in question? This book highlights the contexts in which such questions are asked. By introducing the concept of ‘active memory’, this book contributes to recent developments in memory studies, where memory is increasingly viewed not in isolation but as a dynamic and relational part of human lives.

Mechanisms of Sensory Working Memory
Author: Pierre Jolicoeur
Publisher: Elsevier
ISBN: 0128110430
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 304
Book Description
Mechanisms of Sensory Working Memory: Attention and Performance XXV provides an update on research surrounding the memory processes that are crucial for many facets of cognitive processing and experience, with new coverage of emerging areas of study, including a new understanding of working memory for features of stimuli devoid of verbal, phonological, or long-term memory content, such as memory for simple visual features (e.g., texture or color), simple auditory features (e.g., pitch), or simple tactile features (e.g., vibration frequency), now called sensory memory to distinguish from verbal memory. This contemporary focus on sensory memory is just beginning, and this collection of original contributions provides a foundational reference for the study mechanisms of sensory memory. Students, scholars, and researchers studying memory mechanisms and processes in cognitive neuroscience, cognitive science, neuroscience, and psychology will find this book of great value to their work. - Introduces the study of sensory mechanisms of working memory as distinct from verbal memory - Covers visual memory, auditory memory, and tactile memory - Includes translational content as the breakdown of working memory is often associated with a disease, disorder, or trauma to the brain

IBM PowerVM Virtualization Active Memory Sharing
Author: Allyson Brito
Publisher: IBM Redbooks
ISBN: 0738450146
Category : Computers
Languages : en
Pages : 122
Book Description
This IBM® RedpaperTM publication introduces PowerVMTM Active MemoryTM Sharing on IBM Power SystemsTM based on POWER6® and later processor technology. Active Memory Sharing is a virtualization technology that allows multiple partitions to share a pool of physical memory. This is designed to increase system memory utilization, thereby enabling you to realize a cost benefit by reducing the amount of physical memory required. The paper provides an overview of Active Memory Sharing, and then demonstrates, in detail, how the technology works and in what scenarios it can be used. It also contains chapters that describe how to configure, manage and migrate to Active Memory Sharing based on hands-on examples. The paper is targeted to both architects and consultants who need to understand how the technology works to design solutions, and to technical specialists in charge of setting up and managing Active Memory Sharing environments. For performance related information, see: ftp://ftp.software.ibm.com/common/ssi/sa/wh/n/pow03017usen/POW03017USEN.PDF

Active Memory

ISBN: 0062347950
Category : Young Adult Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 252
Book Description
From Dan Wells, author of the New York Times bestselling Partials Sequence, comes the third installment in a thrilling sci-fi noir series set in 2050 Los Angeles. Even in a world where technology connects everyone’s minds, it would seem that some secrets can still remain hidden. For all the mysteries teen hacker Marisa Carneseca has solved, one has always eluded her: When she was two years old, she was in a car accident in which she lost her arm and a mob boss’s wife, Zenaida de Maldonado, lost her life. No one can tell her what she was doing in that car, or how it led to the feud between the Carnesecas and the Maldonados. The secrets from the past rise violently to the surface when Zenaida's freshly severed hand shows up at the scene of a gangland shooting. If Zenaida is—or was—still alive, it means there’s even more about Marisa’s past that she doesn’t know. And when everyone from Los Angeles gangs to the world’s largest genetic engineering firms becomes involved in the case, it’s clear there’s more happening under the surface than anyone cares to admit. The truth is out there, and Marisa will have to thread together lost friends, corporate assassins, a gang lord’s digital brain, and what might be a literal ghost from the past in order to find it.

Power Systems Memory Deduplication
Author: Scott Vetter
Publisher: IBM Redbooks
ISBN: 0738450723
Category : Computers
Languages : en
Pages : 100
Book Description
This IBM® RedpaperTM publication introduces IBM PowerVM® Active MemoryTM Deduplication on IBM Power SystemsTM based on IBM POWER7® processor technology. Active Memory Deduplication is a virtualization technology through which memory pages with identical contents can be deduplicated in physical memory. This deduplication frees up physical memory positions so that more data can be held in memory at once. Memory deduplication is intended to work in a shared memory environment. Deduplication works with Active Memory Sharing, a technology through which multiple partitions on a system can share a pool of physical memory. Sharing this pool sometimes creates an overcommitment of this physical memory. Active Memory Deduplication increases the performance of Active Memory Sharing because the savings can be used to lower memory overcommitment levels. Reduction of memory in use can also create room to increase the memory footprint of the logical partitions (LPARs). This paper describes the advantages of Active Memory Deduplication and requirements for its use and implementation in your Power Systems. This paper also helps you set up Active Memory Deduplication on your Power System for use with IBM AIX®, IBM i, and Linux. It includes guidance for tuning parameters of Active Memory Deduplication and for troubleshooting issues. This paper targets architects and consultants who need to understand how Active Memory Deduplication technology works to design performing solutions. The paper also targets technical specialists in charge of setting up and managing Active Memory Deduplication.
