Innovation in assessment is no more a choice in a tech-savvy instant age. The purpose of this study was to get more insight into the implementation of formative assessment through the e-learning tool called Black Board (BB) Learning System in our University. The proposal is to implement a series of weekly or fortnightly tests on the BB. These would have options to provide sufficient feedback as...

We present a calculation of the QCD correction factors η2B and η2K up to Next–to–Leading Order within the MSSM. We took into account the region of low tanβ for the Higgs– and chargino sector while neglecting the effect of gluinos and neutralinos. Key–words: Mixing; MSSM; CP-violation; CKM-matrix

The role of higher Fock-state contributions to exclusive charmonium decays will be discussed. It will be argued that the J/ψ (ψ) decays into baryon-antibaryon pairs are dominated by the valence Fock-state contributions. P -wave charmonium decays, on the other hand, receive strong contributions from the ccg Fock states since the valence Fock-state contributions are suppressed in these reactions....

We consider the following online scheduling problem in which the input consists of n jobs to be scheduled on identical machines of bounded capacity g (the maximum number of jobs that can be processed simultaneously on a single machine). Each job is associated with a release time and a completion time between which it is supposed to be processed. When a job is released, the online algorithm has ...

We investigate the Busy Beaver Game introduced by Rado (1962) generalized to non-binary alphabets. Harland (2016) conjectured that activity (number of steps) and productivity (number of non-blank symbols) of candidate machines grow as the alphabet size increases. We prove this conjecture for any alphabet size under the condition that the number of states is sufficiently large. For the measure a...
