Memory Techniques

This chapter begins with the observation that inscribed texts were memorized and orally transmitted. This insight provides the key for a reading of Callimachus’ ‘Tomb of Simonides’—itself a reading of Simonides’ own response to the poetics of inscribed epigram (and of his role as the inventor of memory techniques). The chapter argues that Callimachus presents Simonides’ tomb not as an epitaph, but as a ‘meta-epitaph’—an elegy which is not itself inscribed, but describes the loss of an inscribed tombstone: liberated from the tomb that once covered his body, the voice of Simonides now speaks through Callimachus’ verse.

Memory Techniques

Presentations are one of the proficient skills, which every professional has to acquire. A Presentation is an effectual tool to execute a plan. Presentations are necessary for decision making, to give training or a set of instructions while handling a project, to learn a skill, to select a service or strategy, to report progress and so on. Technical presentation is one of the soft skills that every Engineering professional needs to familiarize and master. Technical presentations elucidate the design and working of a product, technological progression and a solution to tackle a difficulty. Every technologist despite his/her technical skill and expertise also needs to be an effective presenter in order to execute his project and this is the need of the hour. The present paper prepared after substantial research and knowledge gained through experience, focuses on how to cultivate the skill of presentation in an effective manner so that the audience becomes engrossed and enthralled. The paper also sheds light on the techniques of selecting a topic, preparing a paper, modus operandi of opening, conducting and closing a presentation, memory techniques to remember the content, appearance, tact, body language, tone, innovation and methods to collect audience feedback required for effective technical presentation.

This work examines if chaos and long memory exist in PM10 concentrations recorded in Athens, Greece. The algorithms of Katz, Higuchi, and Sevcik were employed for the calculation of fractal dimensions and Rescaled Range (R/S) analysis for the calculation of the Hurst exponent. Windows of approximately two months’ duration were employed, sliding one sample forward until the end of each utilized signal. Analysis was applied to three long PM10 time series recorded by three different stations located around Athens. Analysis identified numerous dynamical complex fractal time-series segments with patterns of long memory. All these windows exhibited Hurst exponents above 0.8 and fractal dimensions below 1.5 for the Katz and Higuchi algorithms, and 1.2 for the Sevcik algorithm. The paper discusses the importance of threshold values for the postanalysis of the discrimination of fractal and long-memory windows. After setting thresholds, computational calculations were performed on all possible combinations of two or more techniques for the data of all or two stations under study. When all techniques were combined, several common dates were found for the data of the two combinations of two stations. When the three techniques were combined, more common dates were found if the Katz algorithm was not included in the meta-analysis. Excluding Katz’s algorithm, 12 common dates were found for the data from all stations. This is the first time that the results from sliding-window chaos and long-memory techniques in PM10 time series were combined in this manner.
