The thesis is an exploration of the relations between know-how, abilities, and ordinary knowledge of facts. It is shown that there is a distinctively practical sort of know-how and a corresponding interpretation of 'S knows how to 0', and that this special sort of know-how, while possessing representational content, is not simply ordinary knowledge-that. The view rests on a novel distinction be...

OBJECTIVES To analyse the total number of newspaper articles citing the four leading general medical journals and to describe national citation patterns. DESIGN Quantitative content analysis. SETTING/SAMPLE Full text of 22 general newspapers in 14 countries over the period 2008-2015, collected from LexisNexis. The 14 countries have been categorised into four regions: the USA, the UK, Wester...

The purpose of this study is to determine the economic behavior cashew farmers, namely production (weeding, pruning, fertilizing and pest disease control), marketing behavior, saving investment behavior; effect social factors (age, education level, number family members, experience land area) on farmers. was conducted in Mawasangka District, Central Buton Regency, Southeast Sulawesi Province. D...

The ability to monitor computer file systems for unauthorized changes is a powerful administrative tool. Ideally this task could be performed remotely under the direction of the administrator to allow on-demand checking, and use of tailorable reporting and exception policies targeted to adjustable groups of network elements. This paper introduces M-FICA, a Mobile File Integrity and Consistency ...

We describe how the compliance requirements for data retention from recent laws such as the US Sarbanes Oxley Act may be supported by a tamper-evident secure storage system based on probe storage with a patterned magnetic medium. This medium supports normal read/write operations by out-of-plane magnetisation of individual dots. We report on an experiment to show that in principle the medium als...

High capacity disks, especially optical ones, are commercially available. These disks are ideal for archiving large text data bases. In this work, we examine efficient searching techniques for such applications. We propose a unifying framework, which reveals the similarities between signature files and an inverted file using a hash table. Then, we design methods that combine the ease of inserti...

A machine solves a problem using space s(·) if, for every input x, the machine outputs the correct answer and uses only the first s(|x|) cells of the tape. For a standard Turing machine, we can’t do better than linear space since x itself must be on the tape. So we will often consider a machine with multiple tapes: a read-only “input” tape, a read/write “work” or “memory” tape, and possibly a w...

this experiment was conducted to determine the effect of competition between common weed in chickpea’s form in kermanshah and chickpea (cicer arietinum). it was carried out in sararood experimental station in kermanshah province in 2000. split plot factorial was considered as an experimental design that had four replications. the weeding was main factor with two different levels (whole season w...
