In 2015, our team proposed a new development methodology, which we named the Causality Search T-Method (CS-T Method). This method makes it possible to solve the intrinsic limitation of target characteristics-based Parameter Design. Specifically, target characteristics-based Parameter Design is in essence a black-box method, which makes it difficult to obtain information on the mechanisms of quality improvement. The first aim of the CS-T Method is to determine the causal relationships between the target characteristics and multiple candidate “Effective-Explanation Factors” (EEF) such as physical properties, sensing data. The second aim is to improve the efficiency. Through a case study, our team demonstrated that it is possible to determine the causal relationships with significantly fewer experiments. We propose an extension of the CS-T Method, one which incorporates Graphical Modeling (GM), which we have named the CS-TG Method. Unlike conventional GM, which performs the analysis on the entire pool of candidate EEFs, CS-TG method allows the GM analysis to focus on the limited set of factors that were identified by the original CS-T as having a causal relationship with the target characteristics. In doing so, the new method is able to establish the causal relationships between each of the individual EEFs with fewer experiments.

The growth of the furniture industry relies heavily on good marketing activities. In this digital and online era can be utilized in terms of marketing in the furniture industry. Toko 99 Mebel is one of the furniture stores that still use conventional transaction and order recording. So product marketing is less innovative and efficient. The purpose of this research was to build an android-based furniture sales application that added a QR Code scan feature that can be a new innovation in 99 furniture stores in marketing products. QR Code serves as a feature to display a description of the product to be ordered quickly. The method used is waterfall, useful to reduce errors in building applications. Testing in this application using the Black Box method, this test method is very important to test the fungisonality of the application as opposed to internal structure or work. With waterfall method and Black Box testing method in application development can be arranged well and appropriately. As well as being able to participate in the sale of 99 Furniture Stores, because it will further facilitate the process of selling furniture online via android smartphone so that it is expected to increase customer interest to buy furniture in 99 Furniture Stores.

AbstractUsing interviews with former militants and previously unpublished documents, this article traces the genesis and internal dynamics of the Ejército Revolucionario del Pueblo (People's Revolutionary Army, ERP) in El Salvador during the early years of its existence (1970–6). This period was marked by the inability of the ERP to maintain internal coherence or any consensus on revolutionary strategy, which led to a series of splits and internal fights over control of the organisation. The evidence marshalled in this case study sheds new light on the origins of the armed Salvadorean Left and thus contributes to a wider understanding of the processes of formation and internal dynamics of armed left-wing groups that emerged from the 1960s onwards in Latin America.

Abstract Culture shapes our basic sensory experience of the world. This is particularly striking in the study of religion and psychosis, where we and others have shown that cultural context determines both the structure and content of hallucination-like events. The cultural shaping of hallucinations may provide a rich case-study for linking cultural learning with emerging prediction-based models of perception.

Abstract Hoerl and McCormack demonstrate that although animals possess a sophisticated temporal updating system, there is no evidence that they also possess a temporal reasoning system. This important case study is directly related to the broader claim that although animals are manifestly capable of first-order (perceptually-based) relational reasoning, they lack the capacity for higher-order, role-based relational reasoning. We argue this distinction applies to all domains of cognition.

Abstract Sociocultural developmental psychology can drive new directions in gadgetry science. We use autobiographical memory, a compound capacity incorporating episodic memory, as a case study. Autobiographical memory emerges late in development, supported by interactions with parents. Intervention research highlights the causal influence of these interactions, whereas cross-cultural research demonstrates culturally determined diversity. Different patterns of inheritance are discussed.

Modern polishing, precision machining and microindentation techniques allow the processing and mechanical characterization of ceramics at nanometric scales and within entirely plastic deformation regimes. The mechanical response of most ceramics to such highly constrained contact is not predictable from macroscopic properties and the microstructural deformation patterns have proven difficult to characterize by the application of any individual technique. In this study, TEM techniques of contrast analysis and CBED are combined with stereographic analysis to construct a three-dimensional microstructure deformation map of the surface of a perfectly plastic microindentation on macroscopically brittle aluminum nitride.The bright field image in Figure 1 shows a lg Vickers microindentation contained within a single AlN grain far from any boundaries. High densities of dislocations are evident, particularly near facet edges but are not individually resolvable. The prominent bend contours also indicate the severity of plastic deformation. Figure 2 is a selected area diffraction pattern covering the entire indentation area.
