In this paper we discuss a powerful way to support merge of concurrently developed documents (such as programs). Existing merge tools require the user to decide for each individual change if it should be included or not. We show how it is possible to let the user to decide to include (or exclude) several changes in one go. In our prototype we use the structure of the document in order to support t

This thesis concerns unconditionally secure authentication, i.e., providing protection against an enemy who is assumed to have unlimited computing power. The field is divided into two areas, conventional authentication and authentication for non-trusting parties.

The basic Helix-Loop-Helix (bHLH) proteins are a family of transcription factors that are found in almost all eukaryotic genomes. This family of proteins regulates a variety of biological processes including embryonic development. Here we describe the catalog of human, mouse and rat bHLH proteins. Extensive in silico studies identified 121 human, 121 mouse and 120 rat bHLH proteins. Human has orth

This paper presents test methodologies to measure and evaluate performance of ADSL modems which take into account loss of packet rate, bit rate, and latency in transporting ADSL service scenario. This evaluation method can be used by ADSL provider (CO - Central Office) to guarantee the system quality and avoid low performance of service. In order to present this evaluation method, this paper consi

Mercury (Hg) is known to induce adverse immune reactions in sensitive individuals. e.g. selected inbred animal strains. Such reactions involve oral tissues and may reflect immune phenomena, that may also occur in some human oral diseases. Administration of low doses of HgCl₂ to the genetically Hg-sensitive BN rats results in the development of a syndrome with autoimmune features [BN(Hg

The paper is concerned with coordinate representations for rigid parts in multibody dynamics. The discussion is based on the general theory of the dynamics of multibody systems under constraints. General configuration coordinates are introduced and the requirement of their regularity is discussed. The use of Euler angles, quaternions and linear coordinates, where quaternions and linear coordinates

Estimation of the generalization performance for classification within the medical applications domain is always an important task. In this study we focus on artificial neural network ensembles as the machine learning technique. We present a numerical comparison between five common resampling techniques: k-fold cross validation (CV), holdout, using three cutoffs, and bootstrap using five different

Ethnography is a very abstract concept, but often perceived as a very concrete practice, but what is hidden in the slippage between the abstract and concrete, as ethnography moves. While a great deal has been written and debated about the practices, methods and outcomes of applied research, and we appreciate these debates, our own point of departure lies in a curiosity over what happens in the pro
