Traditional literature holds STE in lead aVL to be associated with occlusion proximal to the first diagonal branch of the left anterior descending coronary artery.

Using South African Families (SAF), a new database of settler genealogies, we provide the first comprehensive analysis of women’s cohort fertility in settler South Africa between 1700 and 1900. We find parity rates of approximately seven children per woman until a decline begins starting with women born in the 1850s. We date the start of South Africa’s fertility transition to cohorts born in the 1

PalCom is a middleware toolkit for pervasive computing and internet-of-things. We discuss how PalCom supports exploration and live programming through three phases: exploring services, assembling them into applications, and exposing them as new services.

We present an approach for connecting and coordinating distributed devices with different capabilities. More specifically, our research focuses on the design of an domain specific language that allows end-users to coordinate devices in pervasive systems.
