The multiuser detection problem applies when we are sending data on the uplink channel from a handset to a base station. The base station must demodulate and decode signals from K−1 interfering handsets. A related problem known as interference cancellation arises on the down-link channel from the base station to the handset in which the handset must separate the signal intended for it, from the...

one of the difficulties in using absolute altitudes is the separation between the mean open sealevel and geoid. theoretically, geoid is the base level in absolute altitudes, but practically, the mean open sealevel is used as a base level for absolute altitudes. the difference between these two levels is called as the seasurface topography. in this research, it is dealt the mean sea level modeli...

An increasingly relevant theme for knowledge-based systems is how to model and use a large and complex knowledge domain. On the one hand, this involves developing new ideas on a modular construction of a knowledge base and, on the other hand, an appropriate architecture of a knowledge-based system that takes account of such a modular knowledge base. In the HYPERCON project we conceptualize a co...

Recent subaerial volcanism at El Hierro Island (Canary Islands, Spain) consists of monogenetic volcanic fields. This generated cinder cones, tephra air-fall deposits, and lava flows. The flows reach several kilometres in length extending through shore platforms and, sometimes, penetrating under the sea level. landforms convert it into a natural laboratory for topographic morphometric modelling ...

In any large software organization, the street cred of source code is of principle concern. Often-times we find that a given code base can talk a mean game, but when time comes to “throw down,” that code base is nowhere to be seen. While intuitively we as software developers come to gain a sense of which code bases are trust-worthy (or, “will ball ‘till they fall”), some systematic method for m...

Victory or defeat in this war depends in the last resort upon whether the ordinary citizens of this country can hold the " Will to Victory " in face of every misery, of every disappointment, of every loss, and of every discomfort. The war effort can be likened to a triangle, the apex of which is the Fighting Forces, the base of which represents the ordinary population of the country. If the bas...

SMMSS, K. Calcium and carbonate metabolism in the frcg (Rana temporia) during respiratory acidosis. Am. J. Physiol. 2 14(3) : 627634. 1968.-Frogs (R. temporaria) contain large deposits of calcium carbonate in the endolymphatic sacs of the inner ear. Methods are described for determining the quantities of calcium and phosphate lost from frogs made acidotic with carbon dioxide (5-200/o in oxygen)...

The Japanese economy has suffered from persistent deflation since the mid-1990s, when the banking system fell into serious undercapitalization. In Germany and in China, worries about impending deflation have emerged, along with fear of prospective or hidden bank insolvency. In this paper I present a simple model in which bank insolvency causes deflation. During a period of bank insolvency, bank...

Introduction Endobronchial valve placement has potential as a treatment for patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). However, a robust evidence base will be needed to convince commissioners of healthcare that it is a high-value treatment. We sought to develop the evidence base by performing an individual patient-level analysis of randomised controlled trials in people with he...
