This report presents the findings from a study of experience with digital instrumentation and controls (I&C) technology in evolutionary nuclear power plants. In particular, this study evaluated regulatory approaches employed by the international nuclear power community for licensing advanced l&C systems and identified lessons learned. The report (1) gives an overview of the modern l&C technolog...

Abstract The global influence of the European Union (EU) has been debated in overlapping strands literature as ‘normative’, ‘regulatory’ and ‘market power’. They identify diffusion its rules standards a vehicle power. We argue that power extends beyond regulatory capacities includes new ‘catalytic’ realm financing network building. analyse blended finance an instrument ‘catalytic power’, define...

conclusions based on the presence of ta systems in the majority of p. aeruginosa isolates, these could be used as a novel target for antimicrobial therapy. results our results showed that in the 174 p. aeruginosa isolates, relbe and higba were universal, but parde was less prevalent. both of the flanking regions of the parde genes in all positive isolates were amplified. the flanking regions of...

In this paper we apply three pattern recognition methods (support vector machine, cluster analysis and principal component analysis) to distinguish regulatory regions from coding and non-coding non regulatory DNA sequences. Using a new feature representation (the degree by which motifs are overand under-represented) we demonstrate the remarkable power of this methodology in identifying regulato...

Intensifying concerns about online platform firms’ rapid rise, expansion, and growing asymmetric power have attracted political scrutiny undermined the legitimacy of a minimalist regulatory regime that is giving way to intense debate increasingly interventionist governmental policies enforcement actions. First, we view rise of, recent responses to, often-predatory manipulative conduct firm in t...

This paper presents a power-efficient maskconstrained ultra-wideband (UWB) waveform design with radio channel effects taken into consideration. Based on a finite impulse response (FIR) filter, we develop a convex optimization model with respect to the autocorrelation of the filter coefficients to optimize the transmitted signal power spectrum, subject to a regulatory emission mask. To improve p...
