Modern society is witnessing a data revolution which necessarily entails changes to the overall behavior of citizens, governments and companies. This big challenge an opportunity for National Statistics Offices (NSOs). Especially after outbreak COVID-19, when public debate about number mortalities tested infected persons escalated, trusted required more than ever. Which can modern trust? Are so...

The selective removal of thin varnish layers from oil and egg tempera paintings is still an open challenge in the conservation field. In this paper, a new cleaning system was developed by using gel composed fully green components as deep eutectic solvents (DES) agar. gel, prepared admixing choline chloride -urea with EtOH-H2O agar exhibited good rheological properties terms stiffness, allowing ...

index notation A notation of ten-sors in terms of their component index structure(introduced by R. Penrose). For example, thetensor T (θ, θ) = T ba θ ⊗ θb is written in theabstract index notation as T ba , where the indicessignify the valence and should not be assigneda numerical value. When components need tobe referred to, these may be enclosed in matrix<lb...

This paper reports findings from a study that assesses metacognitive awareness and reading-strategy use of Chinese senior high school students who are learning English as a foreign language (EFL). A total of 270 students responded to a 28-item survey of reading strategies (SORS). The strategies were classified into 3 categories: global, problemsolving, and support. The results showed that the s...

Superoxide reductases (SORs) are small metalloenzymes, which catalyze reduction of O2*- to H2O2. The reaction of the enzyme from Treponema pallidum with superoxide was studied by pulse radiolysis methods. The first step is an extremely fast bi-molecular reaction of the ferrous center with O2, with a rate constant of 6 x 10 (8) M(-1) s(-1). A first intermediate is formed which is converted to a ...

Abstract When implementing software for programmable digital signal proces sors PDSPs the design space is de ned by a complex range of constraints and optimization objectives Three implementation metrics that are crucial in many PDSP applications are the program memory requirement code size data memory requirement and execution time This paper addresses the problem of exploring the dimensional ...

In numerical codes, the regular interleaved accesses that occur within do-loop nests induce cache interference phenomena that can severely degrade program performance. Cache interferences can signiicantly increase the volume of memory traac and the amount of communication in uniprocessors and multiproces-sors. In this paper, we identify cache interference phenomena, determine their causes and t...

An e cient parallel algorithm for forward dynam ics computation of human gures is to be proposed The algorithm is capable of handling any kinematic chains including structure varying ones The asymp totic complexity of the algorithm is O N in serial computation and O logN in parallel computation on O N processors for most practical kinematic chains The idea is to assemble a kinematic chain by ad...
