despite the title of intellectual property law, this legal system differs from the classic property law in several aspects, inter alia, the time of protection, the standards for protection, the scope of protection and the enforcement of intellectual property rights. these limitations and differences are largely because of the economic considerations regarding different kinds of positive efficie...

to improve the corrosion protection of copper metal, 0.01m concentration of 1h-1,2,4-triazole-3-thiol (tat) was incorporated into the hybrid sol-gel monolayers containing 3-glycidoxypropyltrimethoxysilane (gptms) and tetraethoxysilane (teos). it was further subjected to hydrolysis and condensation reaction to form a sol-gel matrix. the tat-doped hybrid sol-gel coating was applied over the coppe...

Preparing the books to read every day is enjoyable for many people. However, there are still many people who also don't like reading. This is a problem. But, when you can support others to start reading, it will be better. One of the books that can be recommended for new readers is general principles for the radiation protection of workers. This book is not kind of difficult book to read. It ca...

To date, much attention has focused on the advantages of public-private partnerships for critical infrastructure protection in the United States. These include reducing the duplication of effort, enhancing cross-sector communication, increasing efficiency, and ultimately achieving the protection objectives better than government or business acting independently. The benefits suggest that public...

In this paper we appraise current agricultural subsidy policy in the EU. Several sources of its inefficiency are identified: it is inefficient for supporting farmers' incomes or guaranteeing food security, and irrational transfer payments decoupled from actual performance that may be negative for environmental protection, social cohesion, etc. Based on a simplified economic model, we prove that...

The combination of a general greening of international political debate, and the events of 1992 at the Rio Earth summit have led to great interest in the question of global environmental protection. While it is recognized that international environmental agreements (IEAs) are the means by which the earth's fragile environment is most likely to be protected, this recognition has been recent. Hen...

Microbial melanins provide a biocompatible and scalable approach for bioremediation and radioprotection technologies due to their physicochemical properties.

The paper covers a method of allowing a client to browse an image to examine it in detail, while making it difficult to steal. It differs from invisible watermarking methods in that it attempts to prevent theft, rather than detect or verify theft after it has happened. The image is served to the client in parts. The parts are imperceptibly altered. No effort is made to protect individual parts;...

A large square array of thin dipoles has a well-behaved scan resistance over a wide bandwidth. Such an array requires reactance matching with frequency, but not with scan angles. The scan element pattern (SEP) shows only small changes over a 5 : 1 bandwidth. However, a dipole/screen array is suitable for wide-band scan only in the H-plane.
