Purpose This study aims to introduce the duration of uniqueness, an important dimension unique products. It studies how choices between products with long versus short uniqueness are influenced by interaction pressure and consumers’ need for (NFU). Design/methodology/approach research uses a multi-method approach. A pilot field-study tested novelty importance asking retail professionals predict...

DYOPTYKA’s innovative solution for the reduction of speckle noise in projection displays, using a phase randomizing deformable mirror, is shown to achieve good performance both within a single 1 μs pulse duration and through sequences of such pulses.

Duration Calculus (DC) is a real-time logic with measurement of duration of propositions in observation intervals. It is a highly expressive logic with continuous time behaviours (also called signals) as its models. Validity checking of DC is undecidable. We propose a method for validity checking of Duration Calculus by reduction to a sampled time version of this logic called well sampled Inter...

We generate space-time coupled attosecond pulse trains with a 1.8 μm wavelength laser pulse using the ‘attosecond lighthouse’ technique. We show low divergence, spatially well-separated beamlets from low ionization potential gas media. We also find that there is little long trajectory contribution—only the short trajectory contribution is clearly visible for any beamlet. These results open a ne...
