I have a family history of diabetes, so I try and control my sugar intake. I am having a lot of trouble figuring out how much sugar is the maximum amount of sugar to allow in my diet. I have read that "added sugar" intake should be limited to no more than ten percent of your daily calories, but I have no idea how to determine what amount of sugar in food is natural versus added. I assume that a...

This paper outlines the application of a specific, flexible method of applying service-oriented architecture (SOA) principles to business interactions utilizing the unique busines...

1 This work was undertaken as the Electronics and Telecommunications Engineering degree Final Project of its two first authors. Abstract The design, implementation and performance tests of an Si LDMOS-Based power amplifier for UHF is presented. The amplifier, conceived for medium power GSM-900 base-station applications, consists of a Class-AB single stage circuit designed for maximum output pow...

Recently, a moderate amount of work has been reported on the use of overlay networks to support value-added network services, such as multicasting, Quality of Service (QoS), security, etc. To design an overlay network, the first step is to choose an overlay topology connecting all the overlay service nodes. When considering overlay topologies, several questions need to be answered first: How ov...

Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) provides a method for organisations to send and receive standardised business communications quickly, flexibly, cheaply and in a secure manner. It is EDI's document translation standards which distinguish it from other, similar technologies such as e-mail or tape-based file transfer and which enable EDI to offer a standardised internal integration option for ut...

Avian vocalizations are common examples of the complex signals used by animals to negotiate during agonistic interactions. In this study, we used two playback experiments to identify agonistic signals in a songbird species with several acoustically complex songs and calls, the veery. In the first experiment, we compared veery singing behavior in response to simulated territorial intrusions incl...

The list of contents (see below) is written by an English hand, presumably at the Royal Dispensary in London, while hurried notes in Gothic script have been added, most probably by Dr. Erichsen himself. Many of the original contents are still present, and they include most of the things usually found in chests of this type. Some items, however, were probably specially selected by Dr. Erichsen, ...

This new edition is designed to fit a shortened anatomy course. The outline is unchanged from the previous edition, with 57 short chapters organized in eight general sections. The first section, "General Introduc...
