irrefragable pathological proof in its support. If it is inflammatory oedema, then it is not enlargement of the head and neck of the humerus ; and if it is bony enlargement, then it is cancerous and will not disappear after operation. But hear what he says in the next sentence:?"It would seem to be the first manifestations of that implication of the osseous system which becomes so painfully evi...

Fuzzy inference method based approach to the forming of modular intellectual system of assessment the quality of communication services is proposed. Developed under this approach the basic fuzzy estimation model takes into account the recommendations of the International Telecommunication Union in respect of the operation of packet switching networks based on IPprotocol. To implement the main f...

Hard Raptor Codes (designed for erasure channels) are widely used for mobile multimedia content delivery, and yet they have not been investigated in the context of embedded systems where the energy dissipation is as important as the timing performance. The most time consuming part of Raptor decoder is the matrix inversion operation. This paper proposes a hardware accelerator, for two matrix inv...

In this paper we consider algebras of fuzzy truth values equipped with an implication operation. Generalizing the definition of type-1 fuzzy implications, we discuss extended fuzzy S-implications and coimplications and also extended residual implications and coimplications, in particular to the extended residual of minimum. We study the algebraic properties of these operations and their relatio...

We report a patient who underwent gamma knife radiosurgery to treat recurrent meningioma after microsurgery and thereafter developed secondary malignancy adjacent to the original tumor. A 47-year-old woman had underwent resection of the olfactory groove meningioma. Then radiosurgery was done three times over 4 year period for the recurrent tumor. After 58 months from the initial radiosurgery, s...

This paper deals with propositional fuzzy modal logic with evaluated syntax based on MV-algebras. We focus on its semantical theory from the viewpoint of Pavelka’s graded semantics of propositional fuzzy logic, investigate the L-tautologies based on different Kripke frames. We also define the notion of Lsemantical consequence operation, its some basic properties are obtained. Finally, this pape...

A method to integrate an (in principle) unlimited number of molecular logic gates to construct complex circuits is presented. Logic circuits, such as half- or full-adders, can be reinterpreted by using the functional completeness of the implication function (IMP) and the trivial FALSE operation. The molecular gate IMP is represented by a fluorescent boronic acid sugar probe. An external wiring ...

We study conditions for the deterministic transformation |ψ〉 −→ |φ〉 of a bipartite entangled state by a separable operation. If the separable operation is LOCC, Nielsen’s majorization theorem provides necessary and sufficient conditions. For the general case we derive a necessary condition in terms of products of Schmidt coefficients, which is equivalent to the Nielsen condition when either of ...

Classical logic is unfortunately defective with its problematic definition of implication relation, the “material implication”. This work presents a corrected definition of implication relation to replace material implication in classical logic. Common “paradoxes” of material implication are avoided while simplicity and usefulness of the system are reserved with this definition of implication r...
