‎the narumi-katayama index was the first topological index defined‎ ‎by the product of some graph theoretical quantities‎. ‎let $g$ be a ‎simple graph with vertex set $v = {v_1,ldots‎, ‎v_n }$ and $d(v)$ be‎ ‎the degree of vertex $v$ in the graph $g$‎. ‎the narumi-katayama ‎index is defined as $nk(g) = prod_{vin v}d(v)$‎. ‎in this paper,‎ ‎the narumi-katayama index is generalized using a $n$-ve...

We identify a class of covert timing channels with the following properties. (1) existing covert timing channel analysis techniques are inappropriate for the channels in this class; and (2) it includes the fastest (i.e., highest capacity) covert channels known to date. Since channels in this class are exploited by counting the occurrences of certain events, we call them counting channels. We de...

A terms of trade index is generally defined as an economy’s index of export prices divided by an index of import prices. The implementation of this definition would not warrant a chapter in a textbook or in a Manual: it is more or less straightforward. However, many economists over the years have observed that an improvement in an economy’s terms of trade has effects that are very similar to an...

The vulnerability analysis technique presented in this paper takes into account the innovation of an attacker. A metric for innovation is not new; 700 years ago William of Occam suggested a technique [6]. The salient point of Occam’s Razor and complexity-based vulnerability analysis is that the better one understands a phenomenon, the more concisely the phenomenon can be described. This is the ...

Introduction: This paper investigates the prevalence of obesity (BMI >30 kg/m 2 ) among five geographical groups of Indian Air Force personnel of different age. Purpose of study: To observe the status of obesity among IAF and see whether there is age-wise and regional difference in obesity among the different geographical groups. Results: Gradual increase in mean BMI is seen as age of the popul...

The neutron index of refraction is generally derived theoretically in the Fermi approximation. However, the Fermi approximation neglects the effects of the binding of the nuclei of a material as well as multiple scattering. Calculations by Nowak introduced correction terms to the neutron index of refraction that are quadratic in the scattering length and of order 10(-3) fm for hydrogen and deut...

Holothurians dominate the abyssal megabenthos. They are key consumers and bioturbators of surficial sediment. Compounds essential for holothurian reproduction, such as carotenoids, are in short supply in the deep ocean. Holothurians cannot synthesise carotenoids de novo; the compounds are supplied with the flux of phytodetritus. Therefore, the supply of these compounds may play an important rol...

This paper describes a method developed for the Robust Word Sense Disambiguation task at CLEF 2009. In our approach, a WordNet expanded index is generated from the disambiguated document collection. This index contains synonyms, hypernyms and holonyms of the disambiguated words contained in documents. Query words are integrated by terms extracted by means of a pseudo relevance feedback techniqu...
