Topic: Delegate model of representation

	Delegate model of representation - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The delegate model of representation is a model of a representative democracy.
		This model does not provide representatives the luxury of acting in their own conscience, and often fails to take the good of the nation into account.
		This model was formulated by Edmund Burke (1729-1797), a British philosopher, who also created the trustee model of representation.

	Trustee model of representation - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The trustee model of representation is a model of a representative democracy.
		This model parallels the delegate model of representation, which is a model in which the representative is a tribune of the people.
		In the trustee model, Burke argued that his behavior in Parliament should be informed by his knowledge and experience, allowing him to serve the public interest.

	QAbstractItemModel - QtCentreWiki
		The model is a hierarchy of trees of twodimensional tables of items with each tree having an independent size, so one has to provide means to inform about the number of items in each dimension.
		Although the model methods operate on items using the item index concept, sometimes it is not possible or convinient to pinpoint the representation of the item just using the row and column numbers and an index of the parent.
		Models can be editable in such a way, that its data can be modified in one of the views and upon such modifications all views get updated to show new contents of the model.

	GA and 3rd Committee Guidelines Back to Guide Index
		Each delegate to the Security Council must submit a policy statement on each of the topics to be debated, at least 15 days prior to the simulation (no later than January 26, 2001).
		Delegates should also be aware of the basic structure of the Security Council, including the veto power of the permanent members.
		Delegates to the Security Council should always keep this principle in mind during their efforts to resolve both the agenda items, and the crisis scenario.

		In Chapter 6 of The Concept of Representation, Pitkin introduces her "standing for" theory that primarily focuses on the composition of legislative bodies.
		Moving from concepts of representation, Pitkin acknowledges the argument that none of the previously mentioned theories deal with the actions of representatives and proposes the "acting for" theory.
		The delegate model (presented by Pitkin as "mandate" theory) suggests that the legislator should act only on the instruction of his or her constituents.

		It is customary that all country delegates vote in agreement with the representative in the respective committee whose resolution is on the floor of the Plenary Session.
		After delegates create position papers on each of their committee topics, (if you have two delegates on a committee, they will work as a team on the position papers for the committee), the sponsor can review the foreign policy positions for his/her delegation in the simulation.
		Delegates should arrive at the simulation with statements on their country's position on the committee topics instead of resolutions, remembering that any pre-written resolutions are subject to changes and modifications in order to gain support for passage from other country's delegations on the committee.

		It is important to keep in mind that the Model is an abstraction of the Security Council, not a duplication of it.
		Delegates wishing to speak on the issue (each delegate may only speak for two minutes) can add their names to the speakers’ list by raising their country's place cards (provided by FSU).
		Any motion to vote on a resolution which is not seconded by another delegation is automatically defeated ‑ the resolution dies on the floor.

	Qt 4.1: QAbstractItemModel Class Reference (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
		The underlying data model is exposed to views and delegates as a hierarchy of tables.
		Depending on the type of data contained within a model, it may only be useful to implement the data() function to return valid information for some of the more common roles.
		When a model radically changes its data it can sometimes be easier to just call this function rather than emit dataChanged() to inform other components when the underlying data source, or its structure, has changed.

	A Swing Architecture Overview
		An application-data model is an interface that represents some quantifiable data that has meaning primarily in the context of the application, such as the value of a cell in a table or the items displayed in a list.
		Models must be able to notify any interested parties (such as views) when their data or value changes.
		Stateless UI delegate implementations allow a single UI delegate instance to be used for all instances of that component class, which can significantly reduce the number of objects instantiated.

		The Model sets forth minimum education, training and experience through standards which will assure that an individual utilizing the title "legal assistant" or "paralegal" has the qualifications to be held out to the legal community and the public in that capacity.
		Proper delegation to legal assistants is further complicated and confused by the lack of an adequate definition of the practice of law.
		The attorney must delegate work based upon the education, knowledge and abilities of the legal assistant and must monitor the work product and conduct of the legal assistant to insure that the work performed is substantively correct and competently performed in a professional manner.

	Challenges to the Concept and Practice of Political Representation in Australia (Research Paper 28 1998-99)
		Political representation has become increasingly complex and contentious, in part, due to the success of social movements in raising demands for the fairer representation of 'groups' or 'identities' that were previously discounted, such as those based on gender, race, ethnicity, sexuality and disability.
		The 'trustee' model appeared most distinctly among members of the Liberal party, while the 'delegate' model was filled mainly by Labor MPs who saw themselves as 'party delegates', or by new MPs who were keen on consolidating their seats who saw themselves as delegates of their constituencies.
		This aspect of representation remains sadly neglected in Australia, and there are few constituency-based studies of political representation in Australia.(90) The survey-based research on representational roles, however, suggests that the second face of representation, the MP in the constituency, remains important both in terms of how MPs perceive their roles and in their actual behaviour.

		Nadia's browser is configured and programmed to interpret the receipt of an "application/xhtml+xml" typed representation as an instruction to render the content of that representation according to the XHTML rendering model, including any subsidiary interactions (such as requests for external style sheets or in-line images) called for by the representation.
		If the representation communicates the state of the resource inaccurately, this inaccuracy or ambiguity may lead to confusion among users about what the resource is. If different users reach different conclusions about what the resource is, they may interpret this as a URI collision (§2.2.1).
		The namespace (§4.5.3) of the root element of XML representation data (e.g., as specified by the "xmlns" attribute) is inconsistent with the value of the 'Content-Type' field in an HTTP header.

		Countries with proportional representation (PR) are assumed to increase the incentives to participate because they reduce the proportion of votes that are wasted giving voters a stronger incentive to participate and parties a stronger incentive to mobilise voters.
		The equally long tradition of geographical representation is present in the country’s 61 General electorates, while six separate Maori electorates in 1999 ensured the representation of New Zealand’s indigenous population.

		Strictly speaking, the proceduralist representative is not really a delegate but a "rational actor." She is not committed to the norm of following the views of her constituency but simply to saving her own skin--or, as the economists like to say, maximizing her utility--whatever that involves.
		In a system with uncontrolled campaign contributions, for example, it may be rational for a representative to dismiss the views of a majority of her district when they conflict with the desires of a generous contributor.
		[68]Cain offers no evidence for his contention that the delegate model of representation is more widely accepted than the trustee model.

	Dr. Dobb's \| What Is Swing? \| July 22, 2001
		In a Swing component, models provide information that specifies the component's value, views manage the way in which the component and its data are drawn on the screen, and controllers modify the information maintained by the model in response to user input.
		In actuality, Swing uses a modified MVC pattern, in which the view and controller are combined into a single component called the "delegate object." This reduces the number of communication paths between the model, view, and controller, and the number of components to be created and managed.
		The table data model is represented by the TableModel interface and the view-controller part is handled by the JTable class.
