Database integration is a growing and increasingly important field in both research and industry. Integration requires many steps from initial schema integration and schema mapping, to data scrubbing and cleansing, and finally to data merging. While much research has concentrated on the first steps performed at schema level, there are only few publications about actual, practical merging of the...

The session summarised here was devoted to Electron Cloud Effects and Vacuum in the SPS and LHC. Seven talks were presented, covering recent experimental observations of electron cloud effects at the KEK-B Low Energy Ring (LER), measurements of surface properties at EPA, simulations of electron cloud build-up and heat load, vacuum observations and electron scrubbing in the SPS with LHC type bea...

An integrated installation for treatment of municipal solid waste and comparable waste from industrial origin is described. It consists of three grate furnace lines with flue gas treatment by half-wet scrubbing followed by wet scrubbing, and an installation for wet treatment of bottom ash. It is demonstrated that this integrated installation combines high recovery of energy (40.8% net) with hig...

Lithium extraction from salt lake brine with a high mass ratio of Mg/Li by counter-current method using TBP-DIBK system was investigated in this study. In the process, TBP and DIBK acted as extractant, kerosene used diluent, FeCl3 co-extractant. The operation conditions extraction, scrubbing, stripping, regeneration were investigated. study, 5.5 mol/L LiCl + 0.5 HCl scrubbing solution for purif...

During FPGA configuration, the error detection CRC feature detects configuration bitstream corruption when the bitstream is transferred from an external device into the FPGA. In user mode, the error detection CRC feature detects a single event upset (SEU) and determines the error type and location. In addition, Arria V, Cyclone V, and Stratix V devices support internal scrubbing, an ability to ...

Real-time agent-centered heuristic search is a well-studied problem where an agent that can only reason locally about the world must travel to a goal location using bounded computation and memory at each step. Many algorithms have been proposed for this problem and theoretical results have also been derived for the worst-case performance with simple examples demonstrating worst-case performance...
