Modern Land Mobile Radio has the potential for large growth in the near future. Current regulations have set the stage for a required transition to more spectrally efficient technologies. While several organizations are working to ease this transition, there still remain many details and feature sets which the end user must decide amongst and often there is no clear dividing line between these ...

Two series of heterometallic Fe(III)-Ln(III) compounds, [FeLn(μ3-OH)2(mdea)4(m-NO2C6H4COO)8]·3MeCN where Ln = Y (1) and Dy (2) and [FeLn(μ4-O)3(μ3-O)(mdea)5(m-NO2C6H4COO)9]·3MeCN where Ln = Y (3) and Dy (4), were synthesized. Compounds 1 and 2 were obtained under ambient conditions, whereas 3 and 4 were obtained via a solvothermal transformation process by heating 1 or 2 at 120 °C in MeCN. The ...

Monitoring inter-organizational business processes requires explicit knowledge about when activities start and complete. This is a challenge because no single system controls the process, activities might not be directly recorded, and the overall course of execution might only be determined at runtime. In this paper, we address these problems by integrating process monitoring with sensor data f...

We bring forward the primitive of biased bit commitment, define the security of the model, and present a concrete biased bit commitment scheme based on the braid conjugator search problem. The presented scheme is proved to be information-theoretically hiding and computationally binding in the defined model. Finally, to argue the usefulness of this work, we also sketch out some new applications ...

Drosophila melanogaster display overt circadian rhythms in rest:activity behavior and eclosion. These rhythms have an endogenous period of approximately 24 hr and can adjust or "entrain" to environmental inputs such as light. Circadian rhythms depend upon a functioning molecular clock that includes the core clock genes period and timeless (reviewed in and ). Although we know that a clock in the...

An incremental semantics for a logic with dynamic binding is developed on the basis of a variable free notation for dynamic logic. The variable free indexing mechanism guarantees that active registers are never overwritten by new quantifier actions. The resulting system has the same expressive power as Dynamic Predicate Logic or Discourse Representation Theory, but comes with a more well behave...

In this paper we will compare and contrast some of the newer methods with some of the established methods in the field of object-oriented software engineering. The methods reviewed are Solution-Based Modelling, Business Object Notation and Object Behaviour Analysis. The new methods offer new solutions and ideas to issues such as object identification from scenarios, traceability supporting tech...

The analysis of large execution traces is almost impossible without efficient tool support. Lately, there has been an increase in the number of tools for analyzing traces generated from object-oriented systems. This interest has been driven by the fact that polymorphism and dynamic binding pose serious limitations to static analysis. However, most of the techniques supported by existing tools a...

Background: Recognizing the causes of non-current receivables can well prevent the largest deviation in the allocation of resources as the blocking of resources in a particular sector and their lack of proper distribution. Inserting the condition of late payment penalty is one of the legal solutions to deal with late payment, which is included in banking contracts. In this article, the status o...

the effects of zinc oxide (zno) and e. coli-derived 6-phytase supplemented-diet on the reproductive performance in aged broiler breeder hens and on immune responses of their progeny chicks were studied. in a 2×4 factorial arrangement, 2 inclusion levels (0 or 300 u kg-1 diet) of e. coli-derived phytase and 4 inclusion levels (30, 60, 90, and 120 mg kg-1 diet) of zno were provided from 62 throug...
