This paper is a continuation of our previous analysis [2] of partition functions zeros in models with first-order phase transitions and periodic boundary conditions. Here it is shown that the assumptions under which the results of [2] were established are satisfied by a large class of lattice models. These models are characterized by two basic properties: The existence of only a finite number o...

Objective: To evaluate a new electrocardiographic (ECG) score reflecting domains of electrical and structural alterations in therapy-naïve cancer patients to assess their risk cardiotoxicity. Methods: We performed retrospective analysis 134 consecutive our two university hospitals concerning four ECG parameters: Contiguous Q-waves, markers left ventricular (LV) hypertrophy, QRS duration JTc pro...

Existing digital forensic investigation process models have provided guidelines for identifying and preserving potential digital evidence captured from a crime scene. However, for any of the digital forensic investigation process models developed across the world to be adopted and fully applied by the scientific community, it has to be tested. For this reason, the Harmonized Digital Forensic In...

The ISO/IEC 29110 standard has at its core a Management and Engineering Guide [1] which are targeted at very small entities (enterprises, organizations, departments or projects) having up to 25 people [2], to assist them unlock the potential benefits of using standards which are specifically designed to address their needs. This paper discusses the role and structure of Project Management in th...

We have developed a variation of the solid-phase enzymelinked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) to enable measurement of the activity and antigen levels of protein C (PC) in human plasma. With this assay it is possible to do both tests with the same sample and same microtiter plate coated with anti-PC monoclonal antibody (MCA)JTC-4, which inhibited neither activation of PC nor activity of activated P...

The Chaskey MAC algorithm was presented by Mouha et al. at SAC 2014. It is designed for real-world applications where 128-bit keys are required, but standard cryptographic algorithms cannot be implemented because of stringent requirements on speed, energy consumption, or code size. Shortly after its publication, Chaskey was considered for standardization by ISO/IEC JTC 1/SC 27/WG 2. At the Octo...

Today’s information society is experiencing a steadily increasing convergence of telecommunications, information exchange, digital video, and commercial process services. Advanced coding of audio, video, and data is the essential basis for efficiently exploiting data bandwidth capacities and user-friendly presentation of coded information. To meet these demands, the International Organization f...

Very small entities, organizations with up to 25 people, are very important to the worldwide economy. The products they develop are either developed specifically for a customer or are integrated into products made by larger enterprises. To address the needs of Very small entities, a set of standards and guides have been developed using the systems engineering lifecycle standard ISO/IEC/IEEE 152...
