The extension of the XSL (eXtensible Style sheet Language) by variables and passing of data values between template rules has generated a powerful XML query language: XSLT (eXtensible Style sheet Language Transformations). An informal introduction to XSTL is given, on the bases of which a formal model of a fragment of XSLT is defined. This formal model is in the spirit of tree transducers, and ...

Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) are used in the HyperText Markup Language (HTML) to describe the style, size, color, and position of elements in a document. While simple styles are easy to specify, a style sheet for a complex site can become many thousands of lines long. One problem in style sheets is that as they grow there is a tendency for increasing duplication of styles and properties, especi...

This longitudinal study investigates whether anhedonia and pessimistic attributional style represent a clinical state or a trait in hospitalized depressed adolescents. 81 consecutive adolescent inpatients were screened with the Beck Depression Inventory (BDI) and the clinician-rated Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) criteria sheet. 51 patients with BDI score ≥10 and/or ≥4 symptoms on MDD criteria...

The purpose of this paper is to show a contributor the required style for a paper for AISB 2008. The specifications for layout are described so that non-LTEX users can create their own style sheet to achieve the same layout. The source for the sample file is available for LTEX users. The PostScript and the PDF file is available for all.

The arguments used by Gavin Mooney in his scornful response to Castigating QALYs, are examined. In spite of the rhetoric there is a broad measure of agreement about the deficiencies of QALYs as a means of distributing scarce resources. The main area of conflict is that John Rawles favours compaigning for more resources while Gavin Mooney, constrained by his remit as a health economist, favours ...

This paper considers a robot in the formof a self-folding sheet that is capable of origami-style autonomous folding. The sheet is composed of triangular tiles, folding actuators and an integrated electronic substrate, and is formed as an n×m box-pleated crease pattern. The design of the sheet is generated by an automated sheet design algorithm. We control the sheet with a programming method inc...

The tube to tube sheet welding joints of heat exchanger is the most critical joints. A special Nondestructive testing technology was proposed, which is based on the digital radiographic imaging automatic inspection system to the characteristics on the tube to tube sheet welding joints of heat exchanger. A new style Linear Diode Arrays as a device is used to receive ray, which will be fixed on a...

A simple extension is proposed for enhancing HTML and XML with adaptation. It consists in using the path selectors of style sheet languages such as CSS and XSLT for expressing content and navigation adaptation. The needed extensions to a path selector language are minimal, a few additional constructs suffice. The processor of the language can be kept almost unchanged, no new algorithms are need...
