![]() Marked by the passage of dust, insects and bad weather, the manuscripts must again be saved. At the time, the precious codices were piled up between Timbuktu and Bamako. Long left to the mercy of time and wear, these relics have been the subject of a safeguarding plan since 2015, under the impetus of several international partners such as UNESCO. This ethnocentric version is contradicted by hundreds of thousands of pages of travelogs, poems and scientific treaties. The precious works, which date back to the 9th century, provide a historical correction to the redundant narrative that has always reduced Africa to just oral traditions, denying the continent its rich written history. It is extremely important that these manuscripts, witnesses of this glorious history, be revalued and adapted to the current context," says Boubacar Ould Hamadi, president of the interim authority of the Timbuktu region. "Timbuktu has shone brightly in history, and the crisis it has been going through for several years has caused it to fall far behind. The manuscripts belong to the whole world The manuscripts, whose origins trace from Niger to Mauritania through Algeria, are witnesses of the past greatness of the region. The thousand-year-old city, which was a crossroads of trade and knowledge in medieval times, has seen an influx of researchers and apprentices from all over the world who have come for training. Since 2019, Diagayete has directed the training of codicologists, curators, librarians and those leading digitization efforts who will be responsible for making this heritage live on in the future. They are wells of science and knowledge, dealing with astronomy, medicine, arithmetic, theology or law.” Beyond saving these manuscripts, it is a question of highlighting the history they tell. ![]() Mohamed Diagayete, director general of the Ahmed-Baba Institute, says of the unique role of the city in central Mali: "In Timbuktu, we find manuscripts from all over the region, witnesses of the richness of the exchanges that took place here at one time. There are about 30 of them, coming from all over the country to be part of the second class of book and ancient manuscript professionals within this emblematic establishment in Timbuktu. As the dust and the sound of brushes on paper float by, six students hold in their hands one of the most precious heritages of the region.Ĭeremoniously, they repeat the same gestures: lifting the pages, one by one, with the tip of a thin wooden spatula, then, with the flat of the brush, ridding the inks and the centuries-old papers of dust.

If you spare them, they will show up during your run to help you. After fighting a boss, you can either kill them for more XP and an artifact, or spare them for a big health refill.But this doesn't work for any other character. Some of the characters have abilities that drastically change the game which will make learning it harder - Saffron's alt loadout can slow time, meaning you can react to most attacks instead of learning their patterns. Additionally, sometimes one of the three paths in a stage will begin with a red encounter choosing this path will lead you to a dark version of the stage.

An inappropriate focus on irrelevant/distracting information, stemming from age-related difficulties in attention control, may effectively reduce the WM capacity that is available for the task at hand and lead to decreased performance. In our own research, we have also found evidence supporting the claim that older adults may have problems inhibiting the processing of irrelevant information present within the experimental context ( Fabiani, Low, Wee, Sable, & Gratton, 2006 Fabiani, Friedman, & Cheng, 1998 Fabiani & Friedman, 1995). In fact, there is substantial evidence of reduced inhibition of the processing of distracting or irrelevant information in older adults, which may support such a scenario ( Hasher, Lustig, & Zacks, 2008 Hasher & Zacks, 1988). However, it is also possible to link age-related WM decline to a reduced ability to maintain an appropriate/stable attention focus. For example, Salthouse (1996) proposed that aging leads to reduced speed of processing, rendering it more difficult to maintain many items in memory at a time. Several theories have been developed to explain this decline. Several studies have shown that, similarly to other cognitive functions, WM performance declines with increasing age (e.g., Bopp & Verhaeghen, 2005 Park et al., 2002 Verhaeghen & Salthouse, 1997). To address this question, this study aims at examining in detail the changes in brain activity that are observed when WM capacity limits are reached.Īlthough the majority of studies of WM capacity have been carried out in young adults, in the last several decades researchers have also investigated how WM changes with age (e.g., Craik & Byrd, 1982 Craik, 1968). A related question is how WM capacity is linked to brain activations during WM tasks. A similar view has been proposed by Engle and Kane (2004), Kane, Bleckley, Conway, and Engle (2001), and Kane and Engle (2000). ![]() Thus, this “activation capacity” is assumed to be dependent on attention deployment, and WM is assumed to be limited by attention span. The limitation, therefore, is not really in memory capacity per se but in how many items can be kept into the focus of attention at any point in time. An important aspect of Cowan’s model is that WM is seen as a part of a more extended memory system, in which a small number of items are activated out of a much larger pool, so as to be readily available for the performance of a particular task. ![]() However, in a more recent review of a large number of studies, Cowan (2001) proposed that the core of the WM system can only hold 4 ± 1 items and that additional processes such as “chunking” are required for more items. ![]() Miller (1956), in a classic article, proposed that the capacity of WM is 7 ± 2 items. One of the most intriguing findings in cognitive psychology is that the capacity of WM is in fact very limited, although there is some debate as to exactly how many items can be maintained and manipulated. Working memory (WM) is a system that allows us to store and manipulate small amounts of information for a short time ( Baddeley, 1986 Baddeley & Hitch, 1974). Results are discussed in terms of Cowan’s model of working memory and theories of impaired inhibitory processes in aging. ![]() Interestingly, the brain activation data show a sigmoid relationship with load. The results suggest that age differences in brain activation can be largely attributed to individual variations in working memory span. Specifically, we hypothesized a nonlinear relationship between load and both performance and brain activity and predicted that asymptotes in the brain activation function should correlate with performance asymptotes (corresponding to working memory span). In a Sternberg memory search task, this can be achieved by assessing brain activity as a function of load relative to the individual’s memory span, which declines with age. The Compensation-Related Utilization of Neural Circuits Hypothesis leads to the prediction that activation differences between younger and older adults should disappear when task difficulty is made subjectively comparable. A possible interpretation of this finding is that older adults need to recruit neuronal resources at lower loads than younger adults, leaving no resources for higher loads, and thus leading to performance decrements. Neuroimaging data emphasize that older adults often show greater extent of brain activation than younger adults for similar objective levels of difficulty. ![]() ![]() Therefore, the GPU is best suited for laptops from 13-inch and up.ĭirectX 12 (FL 11_0), Shader 5.0, OpenGL 4. The TDP of the card should be rated at about 15 to 30 Watt (depending on the version, clock speeds and memory). Therefore, demanding games from 2015 should run fluently in low to medium settings and WXGA resolution. The GDDR5 version however pushes ahead 20% (even 30% if paired with a fast desktop quad-core, but we lack 940M reference scores). According to our benchmarks (see below), the DDR3 version is very similar to the old 940M (due to only minor increased clock rates). The smaller the overlap between the yellow and green bars, the better the value for money. Components that offer the best value for money have great performance (yellow) and a low price (green). The performance greatly depends on the used graphics memory and chip. This chart compares the NVIDIA GeForce 940MX with the most popular Graphics Cards over the last 30 days. The Dell Inspiversion however had the GM108 chip with 384 shaders clocked at 1083 - 1189 MHz. featured 512 shader cores (GM107) clocked at 795 - 861 MHz. The 940MX in the Acer Aspire E5-774G e.g. However, most notebook vendors will use the slower DDR3 version of the 940MX that clocks only a few percent faster than the old GeForce 940M (1122 versus 1072 MHz base clock e.g.).įor the GDDR5 version of the 940MX there appears to be also a variant with the GM107-B chip with 512 shaders instead of the 384 but lower clock speeds. Therefore, it is similar to the Maxwell GPU in the Microsoft Surface Book but with more memory and higher clock speeds. Compared to the older card, the new one is based on the same chip but now supports faster GDDR5. It has been announced in the first quarter of 2016 and is the refresh of the GeForce 940M.

The fastest versions ( Core i7-6600U) should perform similar to a dedicated GeForce 820M and will handle modern games (as of 2015) in low settings. The exact performance of the HD Graphics 520 depends on various factors like 元 cache size, memory configuration (DDR3/DDR4) and maximum clock rate of the specific model. Due to its lack of dedicated graphics memory or eDRAM cache, the HD 520 has to access the main memory (2x 64bit DDR3L-1600 / DDR4-2133).

![]() These TE-derived regulatory mechanisms also tend to function in a tissue-specific fashion. Moreover, both TE-derived cis-regulatory sequences and TE-derived regulatory RNAs have been implicated in providing evolutionary novelty to gene regulation. TEs thus provide crucial regulatory roles by being part of cis-regulatory and regulatory RNA sequences. Furthermore, TEs sequences were found to be critical for regulatory functions of these RNAs, including binding to the target mRNA. Second, TEs encode for regulatory RNAs with their sequences showed to be present in a substantial fraction of miRNAs and long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs), indicating the TE origin of these RNAs. TE-derived cis-regulatory sites are found in promoter and enhancer elements, providing binding sites for a wide range of trans-acting factors. First, TEs provide cis-regulatory sequences in the genome with their intrinsic regulatory properties for their own expression, making them potential factors for regulating the expression of the host genes. There are two known principal ways by which TEs regulate the expression of genes. As one of their important functional impacts on gene function and genome evolution, TEs participate in regulating the expression of genes nearby and even far away at transcriptional and post-transcriptional levels.
