The elevated levels of plasma renin activity (PRA) in stroke-prone SHR rats (SHRSP) at several months of age were reported by Matsunaga et al (Jap Circulat J 39: 1305, 1975) and Morita and Okamoto (Jap Heart J 18: 573, 1977). Matsunaga et al (Jap Circulat J 40: 889, 1976) divided SHRSP into 2 groups on the basis of water turnover: one had significantly higher water intake and urine volume than ...

Uncertainty is an inherent aspect of the open-pit mine production scheduling problem (MPSP); however, little is reported in the literature about solution methods for the stochastic versions of the problem. In this paper, two variants of a variable neighbourhood descent algorithm are proposed for solving the MPSP with metal uncertainty. The proposed methods are tested and compared on actual larg...

Recently, a parallel hash function based on chaotic maps with changeable parameters was proposed by Li et al (2011, pp.1305-1312). In this paper, the security of it is analyzed and the weakness of the architecture is pointed out. It is found that the main limitations are the error using of floor, round and exclusive OR operations in the algorithm. In order to counterstrike these, some improveme...

This report describes the Simple Network Time Protocol (SNTP) Version 4, which is an adaptation of the Network Time Protocol (NTP) used to synchronize computer clocks in the Internet. SNTP can be used when the ultimate performance of the full NTP implementation described in RFC-1305 is not needed or justified. This report obsoletes RFC-1769, which describes SNTP Version 3. Its purpose is to cor...
