The present television system was designed nearly 50 years ago. Since then, there have been significant developments in technology, which are highly relevant to the television industries. For example, advances in the very-large-scale-integration (VLSI) technology and signal processing theories make it feasible to incorporate frame-store memory and sophisticated signal processing capabilities in...

In a 1945 monograph, Hrdlička argued that, at 1,000 BP, Paleo-Aleut people on Umnak Island were replaced by NeoAleut groups moving west along the island chain. His argument was based on cranial measurements of skeletal remains from Chaluka Midden and mummified remains from Kagamil and Ship Rock burial caves.

This study is intended to underline the importance of the role played by the cross-industry allocation of R&D resources, as indicated by several indices measuring R&D inequality, within the manufacturing industries of each country, and how it determines cross-country productivity growth. In other words, the main debate is whether national R&D policies for promoting productivity growth should be...

processing of minerals and production of metals has increased greatly in recent years. as a result, the quantities of waste material and pollutants have also increased. in many cases technology has changed to cope with the problem. processes have been either modified to decrease emissions, or replaced by others that are less polluting even if at a higher cost. this paper briefly reviews example...

This paper examines the GHG emission of industrial process in Shenyang city, in the Liaoning province of China, using the 2006 IPCC greenhouse gas inventory guideline. Results show that the total GHG emissions of industrial process has increased, from 1.48 Mt in 2004 to 4.06 Mt in 2009, except for a little decrease in 2008. The cement industry, and iron and steel industries, are the main emissi...
