Switzerland was one of the hotspots Russian political emigration in years immediately before revolution 1905, with Geneva being main centers émigré printing first 20th century. Many these imprints are now accessible a digital collection on Swiss platform e-rara.ch. These works originate from several special collections Schweizerische Osteuropabibliothek (Swiss Library Eastern Europe) Bern. Of i...

This paper extends a previously proposed algorithm for the intersection of finite-element surface meshes. The new version of the algorithm treats special cases of multiple intersections that were not dealt with in the original version. This paper also describes a class library, in the context of Object Oriented Programming, for the generic handling of several types of surface geometry. This lib...

A short ride by car or University bus will take you to North Campus, where you’ll find stellar examples of public art and exhibition venues located within the School of Art & Design, and parts of the School of Music, Theatre & Dance—the Walgreen Drama Center, which houses Stamps Auditorium and the Arthur Miller Theatre, and the Moore Building, which features Britton Recital Hall, Blanche Anders...

Digital libraries offer much promise for patrons and many challenges for system designers and developers. We envision digital libraries as being more than a relatively permanent and fixed archival collection of digital material to be browsed and queried by information-seeking individuals. A digital library is a versioned (fixed and fluid) and interconnected collection of both permanent and tran...

The study of gene functions requires the development of a DNA library of high quality through much of testing and screening. Pooling design is a mathematical tool to reduce the number of tests for DNA library screening. The transversal design is a special type of pooling design, which is good in implementation. In this paper, we present a new construction for transversal designs. We will also e...
