Orientalism Revisited

2021
Orientalism is a Western and Western-centric broad field of research that studies the social structures, cultures, languages, histories, religions, and geographies of countries to the east of Europe. The term took on a secondary, detrimental association in the 20th century which looks down on the East.

Oriented hypercubes

Networks, 2002
AbstractIn this paper, we show how to give an orientation to the edges of an hypercube so that the inducedorientedhypercube offers approximately the same communication performance as that of the original nonoriented hypercube (routing, broadcasting, connectivity, etc.), that is, we show that it is possible to construct anN‐node oriented hypercube with ...

Kipling, the Orient, and Orientals: “Orientalism” Reoriented?

Journal of World History, 2011
Rudyard Kipling and Edward Said are influential figures in reconstructing Western attitudes to the East. Kipling’s comments on the “East” outside India, however, show a different picture from Said’s Orientalism paradigm of negative portrayals of the Orient, which included Kipling as a typical Orientalist supremacist. Kipling emphasized threats from

Re-Orientalism

Modern Asian Studies, 2009
AbstractThis article discusses the perpetration of Orientalism in the arena of contemporary South Asian literature in English: no longer an Orientalism propagated by Occidentals, but ironically enough, by Orientals, albeit by diasporic Orientals. This process, which is here termed as Re-Orientalism, dominates and, to a significant extent, distorts the ...

Orientation and the Young Orienteer

Journal of Navigation, 1996
Orientation within orienteering is dependent on the use of two basic strategies; that is, either a compass or Magnetic-North-based strategy, which relies on the use of one set of information; or the use of a map and landmark-based strategy which relies on the use of at least two sets of information.

Network Orientation

International Journal of Foundations of Computer Science, 1994
This paper analyses how the symmetry of a processor network influences the existence of a solution for the network orientation problem. The orientation of hypercubes and tori is the problem of assigning labels to each link of each processor, in such a way that a sense of direction is given to the network.

Reflections on the “Orientalized Orientals”

Alternatives: Global, Local, Political, 1993
What we really need is a critical language and a full-scale critical culture, not name calling or the rhetorical equivalent of political murder. Our purpose is to assess and critique power in the Arab world. Not according to grandiose schemas imported from Hegel and Stalin and so on: many of the miseries of the Arab left are ascribable to the ...

Orientation Disparity: A Cue for 3D Orientation?

Neural Computation, 2009
Orientation disparity, the difference in orientation that results when a texture element on a slanted surface is projected to the two eyes, has been proposed as a binocular cue for 3D orientation. Since orientation disparity is confounded with position disparity, neither behavioral nor neurophysiological experiments have successfully isolated its ...
