Historical memory and forgetting in the teaching of history : the case of Japan and Italy
2015
En el presente artículo, se revisan algunas investigaciones y publicaciones relevantes donde se analizan aspectos vinculados con la inclusión de la memoria en la enseñanza de la historia (en los casos de Italia y, en mayor medida, Japón) y la conexión existente entre política y gestión de la memoria. Respecto a este último asunto, se evidencia la importancia de la política en relación a la selección y los olvidos en la memoria institucional y cómo los rituales conmemorativos o la construcción de una historia oficial implican un posicionamiento respecto a la memoria. Se observan posicionamientos políticos que determinan la selección de la memoria en la Historia oficial que, al mismo tiempo, …
From the memory of the experience to the relationship with the retailer : a theoretical and methodological exploration in the field of retail
2015
Our research proposes an enrichment of the experiential paradigm by focusing on the consequences of experience. We support the view that an approach by the memory of the experience can partly compensate for the limitations of satisfaction in understanding the retailer-customer relationship. Our literature review leads us to a better understanding of the relationship between experience, memory of the experience and remembered experience. The completion of two longitudinal studies helps to: [1]. conceptualize dimensions of the memory of the shopping experience; [2]. understand the evolution of memory over time; [2]. study its effects on satisfaction, retailer attitude, retailer commitment, an…
Analyzing the Energy Efficiency of the Memory Subsystem in Multicore Processors
2014
In this paper we analyze the energy overhead incurred when operating with data stored in different levels of the memory subsystem (cache levels and DDR chips) of current multicore architectures. Our approach builds upon servet, a portable framework for the memory characterization of multicore processors, extending this suite with a power-related test that, when applied to a platform equipped with a power measurement mechanism, provides information on the efficiency of memory energy usage. As additional contributions, i) we provide a complete experimental study of the impact that the CPU performance states (also known as P-states) exert on the memory energy efficiency of a collection of rece…
The Dreaming Variational Autoencoder for Reinforcement Learning Environments
2018
Reinforcement learning has shown great potential in generalizing over raw sensory data using only a single neural network for value optimization. There are several challenges in the current state-of-the-art reinforcement learning algorithms that prevent them from converging towards the global optima. It is likely that the solution to these problems lies in short- and long-term planning, exploration and memory management for reinforcement learning algorithms. Games are often used to benchmark reinforcement learning algorithms as they provide a flexible, reproducible, and easy to control environment. Regardless, few games feature a state-space where results in exploration, memory, and plannin…
