{ 1{ Note on D Mesons

The new experimental results on charm meson decays reported in this edition are predominantly from CLEO II at the e + e ? storage ring CESR and from xed-target experiments, especially photoproduction experiment E687 at Fermilab. The rst results from the BES experiment, operating at an e + e ? center-of-mass energy of 4.0 GeV, also appear in this edition. BES has measured the branching fractions...

A Note on D-spaces

We introduce notions of nearly good relations and N-sticky modulo a relation as tools for proving that spaces are D-spaces. As a corollary to general results about such relations, we show that Cp(X) is hereditarily a D-space whenever X is a Lindelöf Σ-space. This answers a question of Matveev, and improves a result of Buzyakova, who proved the same result for X compact. We also prove that if a ...

I describe the challenges involved in designing and evaluating high assurance, verifiable voting systems. I describe the Pret a Voter scheme that provides voterverifiablity with minimal trust in officials, software etc. I also describe a number of threats against voting schemes and the extent to which they apply to the basic Pret a Voter scheme. Some enhancements to the scheme designed to count...

Building trustworthy (dependable) systems is a major challenge faced by software developers. To this end, various fault tolerance mechanisms have been developed by researchers and used in industry. Unfortunately, more often than not these solutions ignore earlier development phases most importantly, the architecture design to exclusively focus on the implementation instead. This creates a dange...
