Background: Research indicates that in the United States, children experience healthier BMI and fitness levels during school vs. summer, but research is limited. The primary goal of this pilot study was to assess where children spend their time during the months that school is not in session and to learn about the different types of activities they engage in within different care settings. A se...

The Seventh EDBT Summer School 2004 was held in Santa Margherita di Pula, Sardinia, Italy, September 6{10, 2004. It continued a successful series of international schools promoted by the EDBT Association and dedicated to the dissemination of latest advances in database management. Indeed, the EDBT Association (a Europe-based non-pro t organization also known as the EDBT Endowment) has the purpo...

The first definition introduces discrete differential operators on the lattice Z. Vertices are typically called x, y, and z. Edges, that we think of as unoriented, are typically called b and e. If x and y are neighbors, we write [x, y] for the connected edge. The unit vectors are denoted by ei, i = 1, · · · , d. Definition 1. For a field u(x), x ∈ Z, we define the field ∇u(b), where b runs thro...

The main goal of the School was to introduce graduate students and young mathematicians to three broad and interrelated areas in the theory of automorphic forms. Much of the volume is comprised of the articles of Arthur, Kottwitz, and Milne. Although these articles are based on lectures given at the school, the authors have chosen to go well beyond what was discussed there, in order to provide ...

Section 1 lists some concepts that are typically covered in undergraduate classes: I expect that you have seen many of these ideas before, even if you do not have complete mastery of all of them. We will spend most of our time in the prep sessions going through Sections 2–5, which list some of the main concepts and examples that will appear in the lectures during the summer school. I encourage ...
