Opportunities of Semiconducting Oxide Nanostructures as Advanced Luminescent Materials in Photonics

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
The review discusses the challenges of wide and ultrawide bandgap semiconducting oxides as a suitable material platform for photonics. They offer great versatility in terms of tuning microstructure, native defects, doping, anisotropy, and micro‐ and nano‐structuring. The review focuses on their light emission, light‐confinement in optical cavities, and

The role of western‐based scientific, Indigenous and local knowledge in wildlife management and conservation

People and Nature, 2021
1. Managers of wildlife are faced with decisions and issues that are increasingly complex, spanning natural and human dimensions (i.e. values, preferences, attitudes). A strong evidence base that includes multiple forms and sources of knowledge is needed

Local knowledge in climate change adaptation in the Cook Islands

Climate and Development, 2021
Pacific Island countries, like the Cook Islands, are often considered to be extremely vulnerable to the impacts of climate change. Considerable literature highlights that local knowledge can play an important role in climate change adaptation ...

The meaning of local knowledges [PDF]

open access: possibleScandinavian Journal of Management, 2002
Abstract Foucault's studies of power/knowledge relations provide an alternative methodology for the study of knowledge and organizing, namely the genealogy. Process and pluralism are at the heart of genealogy. It challenges the unitary sciences and emphasises the concrete, independent and contextual character of knowledges.

Local zero knowledge

Proceedings of the thirty-eighth annual ACM symposium on Theory of Computing, 2006
We put forward the notion of Local Zero Knowledge and provide its first implementations in a variety of settings under standard complexity assumptions.Whereas the classical notion of Zero Knowledge guarantees the secrecy only of information that is hard to compute, the new one meaningfully guarantees the secrecy of any information (in case of perfect ...

Characterizing local interests and local knowledge

Proceedings of the SIGCHI Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems, 2012
When searching for destinations and activities, the interests and knowledge of locals and non-locals may vary. In this paper, we compare and contrast the search-related interests of these two groups, and when they share a common interest (in our case, for restaurants), we analyze the quality of the venues they intend to visit.
