On May 15th of this year, I provided you with preliminary findings from the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) study of issues related to submarine programs now under review by the Congress. In that earlier letter, I addressed the near-term savings that would result from a decision not to fund completion of the third Seawolf submarine. After briefly reviewing those savings, the accompanying atta...

Capacitive sensor array (CSA) plays an important role in life science applications, such as cell monitoring, DNA detection, or drug screening. This paper presents a 480×960 time-sharing TDC (ts-TDC) architecture of global shutter CSA. It provides opportunity to merge interfacing, read-out and sampling circuits pixel dynamically adjust the electrode size according characteristic biosample. Each ...

In this paper we consider an insurer who has incomplete information about the claim frequency of the risk process. He therefore calculates the premium on the basis of a prior distribution for the claim frequency. Future information might then reveal that it is no longer optimal for the insurer to continue to offer the insurance under the current conditions. We consider a model where, at certain...

The south-west coast of the Isle of Wight (see Figure 4.1 for general location) is geomorphologically rich in features of interest. It contains examples of most of the cliff types undergoing active erosion described from other GCR sites. The site demonstrates well how coastal processes have produced different cliff forms related not only to variations of lithology and geological structure, but ...

Abstract Radio astronomy is vulnerable to interference from a variety of anthropogenic sources. Among the many strategies for mitigation this coherent time-domain canceling (CTC), which ideally allows one “look through” interference, as opposed avoiding or deleting afflicted data. However, CTC difficult implement, not well understood, and at present strategy in regular use any major radio teles...
