In 1996, the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) adopted ANSI T1.801.03, which presents a number of new objective video quality metrics for quantifying the effects of digital compression and transmission impairments. The measurements in ANSI T1.801.03 were selected based on an extensive multilaboratory quality assessment study that included video systems from bit rates of 64 kbit/sec t...

The aim of this paper is twofold: first, we strive to find routes flint supply that may have been used systematically on the northern Alpine Foreland during fourth millennium BCE, based origin siliceous raw materials; second, these will be interpreted as a part cultural entanglements. Using sedimentary microfacies method for sourcing materials artefacts recovered in prehistoric sites makes it p...

Namen: V članku želimo ugotoviti vpliv postavitve stripoteke v Osrednji knjižnici Mozirje na bralno pismenost uporabnikov. Namen raziskave je ugotoviti, ali bi sistematična nabava stripov in bolj poudarjena umestitev tovrstne literature knjižnični zbirki vplivala bralne navade uporabnikov posledično pri njih spodbudila branje leposlovja. Raziskali smo seznanjenost s tovrstno literaturo pridobil...

This paper reports on an experiment to assess the error detection capabilities of static, inter-module type checking. Type checking is considered an important mechanism for detecting programming errors, especially interface errors. The experiment uses Kernighan&Ritchie C and AN-SI C. The relevant diierence is that the ANSI C compiler checks module interfaces (i.e., the parameter lists of calls ...

Slovenska recepcija romana in filma V vrtincu se je v zadnjih osmih desetletjih precej spreminjala. Pred drugo svetovno vojno so bili odzivi pretežno naklonjeni tako levo kot desno usmerjenih publikacijah; celo karakterizacija pripovednih oseb, ki pozneje zaradi stereotipnega prikazovanja Afroameričanov postala sporna, bila večini tedanjih recenzij izpostavljena nekaj pozitivnega. Po vzpostavit...

Financiranje kulturnih dejavnosti na državni ravni je bilo v zadnjih letih Sloveniji razmeroma dobro preučeno. Kljub temu pa se dosedanje raziskave niso ukvarjale z vprašanjem lokalnega in regionalnega razvoja. Namen članka prikazati prostorske vidike financiranja iz javnih sredstev Republike Slovenije obdobju 2007–2018. V ta namen smo preučili podatke Ministrstva za finance o proračunih občin....

The improved data on the cosmic microwave background (CMB) anisotropy allows a better determination of the adiabaticity of the primordial perturbation. Interestingly, we find that the CMB favors a significant contribution of a primordial isocurvature mode where the entropy perturbation is positively correlated with the primordial curvature perturbation and has a large spectral index (niso ∼ 3)....

Reports on the ground-breaking work by Herbert Van de Sompel while associated with Ghent University, Belgium, and at the Los Alamos National Laboratory, which has led to the creation of an open linking framework for scholarly research. The open linking framework proposed by Van de Sompel puts libraries firmly in control, allowing them to determine the scope of their institution’s interlinked re...

ANSI/IEEE Standard 1471-2000 is the Recommended Practice for Architectural Description of SoftwareIntensive Systems, developed by the IEEE’s Architecture Working Group (AWG) under the sponsorship of the Software Engineering Standards Committee of IEEE. ANSI/IEEE 1471 is the first formal standard to address the content and organization of architectural descriptions. The standard defines the stru...
