This short paper presents some motivations behind the organization of the ACL/EACL01 “Workshop on Sharing Tools and Resources for Research and Education”, concentrating on the possible connection of Tools and Resources repositories. Taking some papers printed in this volume and the ACL Natural Language Software Registry as a basis, we outline some of the steps to be done on the side of NLP tool...

Drawing upon reflectance behavior of woodland colors involving dark brown in the UV-Vis-IR bands, two colored pigments were used to print cotton/polyester Co/PET goods. Inorganic nanoparticles of TiO2, ZnO and AL2O3 were also loaded onto the printing formulation. The reflectance profile of treated samples was studied using Jasco V-670 reflectance spectrophotometer. SEM analysis of printed fabri...

Feature Extraction plays most crucial and important role in character recognition. The selection of stable and representative set of features is the main problem in pattern recognition. Because of font characteristics and style variation of machine printed Tamil characters, feature extraction remains a problem. Feature extraction involves reducing the amount of resources required to describe a ...

With the miniaturization of electronic products, reducing the size of the printed circuit board that forms the backbone of the product is paramount. Embedding passive components, which otherwise occupy valuable “real estate” atop the printed circuit board, into the printed circuit board substrate itself is one way of achieving this objective. This first part of this paper examines the technique...

The evolution of teaching and learning spaces from physical spaces to incorporate digital/virtual spaces is a phenomenon now accepted as commonplace. In rich multi-modal teaching and learning environments we consider how digital resources have impacted the role of educators in defining their own role, and the resources utilised to supplement online education with a social presence reminiscent o...

Dear editor The concept of evidence based medicine (EBM) involves a systematic approach for integration of best available research evidence into medical decision making for physicians, medical trainees and researchers. The EBM process includes five essential steps: formulating the questions, searching for evidence, appraising the evidence, and applying and evaluating the results (1). In a descr...

The design of the CLEO-III Trigger produced 24 different multilayer printed circuit board designs, and over 100 FPGA configurations. Only one board design was intentionally prototyped and respun; only one board design was respun due to design/layout error; only one board design had more than 6 ECO wires. A detailed case study of the CLEO-III Trigger design methodology is presented. Scheduling, ...

background: this study describes the possibility of implementing three-dimensional printing technology to create a precise construction of a planned bolus, based on computed tomography information stored in the digital imaging and communications in medicine (dicom) format file. materials and methods:  to create the bolus with a 3d printer, we converted data in the dicom format to the stereolith...
