The task of designing parsing algorithms for tree adjoining grammars could be simplified by providing a separation between the description of the parsing strategy and the execution of the parser. This can be accomplished through the use of Bottom-up Embedded Push-Down Automata. Towards this aim, we provide a formal and consistent definition of this class of automata and, by removing the finite-...

OBJECTIVES Although it is well recognized that a small meatus after canal wall down (CWD) tympanomastoidectomy can cause a lifetime problem, unsatisfactory results are frequently encountered. We herein introduce a novel technique, perichondrial posterior fixation (PPF), to maintain a wide external auditory canal (EAC), to minimize postoperative wound infection due to the smaller dead space and ...

We have developed a new ring-down technique that does not require a shutter to turn a probe laser on and off. With a rapid cavity scan we can measure a simple exponential cavity decay from which a cavity finesse can be found. When the cavity is scanned slowly, the cavity decay exhibits an amplitude modulation, and an analytic expression is derived for this modulation. With this new technique we...

A wireless sensor network is composed of many sensor nodes, that have beengiven out in a specific zoneandeach of them hadanability of collecting information from the environment and sending collected data to the sink. The most significant issues in wireless sensor networks, despite the recent progress is the trouble of the severe limitations of energy resources.Since that in different applicati...
