We describe two classes of software systems that release tabular summaries of an underlying database. Table servers respond to user queries for (marginal) sub-tables of the “full” table summarizing the entire database, and are characterized by dynamic assessment of disclosure risk, in light of previously answered queries. Optimal tabular releases are static releases of sets of sub-tables that a...

While hazardous chemicals pollutions occurring, monitoring and forecasting are very important for emergency planning and evacuation. To implement the object, huge amounts of wireless sensors may be distributed in large area. The data gathered by the sensors are sent back to data centers for preprocessing and analysis, which need massive computing utility. Therefore a high effective computing pa...

Success in software product business requires the release of new products and product upgrades with the right amount of features and quality within an open market window. For this, a systematic approach for managing the contents, timing and roles of future product releases as well as the product architecture is needed. In practice, such an approach is often missing, especially in small companie...

Absract. The radiological impacts from radionuclide releases into Techa, and Yenisei Rivers in Russia are discussed. The dose assessments for human and natural biota are calculated using the methodology of multiple pathways of exposure. In the Mayak complex area the collective dose to the Techa River population during 19491956 was 6,200 man-Sv. The collective dose from radioactive discharges of...

Data releases to the public should ensure the privacy of individuals involved in the data. Several privacy mechanisms have been proposed in the literature. One such technique is that of data anonymization. For example, synthetic data sets are generated and released. In this paper we analyze the privacy aspects of synthetic data sets. In particular, we introduce a natural notion of privacy and e...

First discharge calculations are carried out to set release characteristics for the hazardous chemical (including depressurisation to ambient). Scenarios which may be modelled includes releases from vessels (leaks or catastrophic ruptures), short pipes or long pipes and releases of combustion products following a warehouse fire. Released considered include releases of sub-cooled liquid, superhe...

the incidence and prevalence of obesity are fast increasing worldwide. various indices have been used to measure and assess obesity. the body mass index (bmi) is the most common and practical of these indices. overweight and obesity exert considerable adverse effects on the cardiovascular system. these effects are mediated through various neurohormonal and cytokine pathways, most of which are i...

Currently, research on understanding adipose tissue (AT) metabolism has increased significantly. AT is an endocrine organ, that releases proteins, specific metabolites, hormones, micro-RNAs and signaling lipids, all involved in a network of inter-organ communication. Among other effects, dysfunction contributes to proinflammatory diabetogenic state, from early stage the disease development. Ove...

Civil aviation is one of biggest industrial contributors to CO2 emissions worldwide. One the most urgent problems this sector providing new technologies continue operating in a more sustainable environment through transition clean energy. The Earned Value Management (EVM) model, as traditional project management tool, continuously being revised with releases and extensions (e.g., ESM, EDM, QEVM...
