Marco Dall Aglio and Marco

The zonoid of a d-dimensional random vector is used as a tool for measuring linear dependence among its components. A preorder of linear dependence is defined through inclusion of the zonoids. The zonoid of a random vector does not characterize its distribution, but it characterizes the size biased distribution of its compositional variables. This fact will allow a characterization of our linea...

Terrain data can be stored in a variety of data structures, data models and data formats. A data structure is the internal representation or machine storage method, while a data format is the actual specification of the data structure, and provides a scheme for the systematic storage of data for transfer, processing and retrieval. A data model instead is a more complex entity that, in this tent...

A Spotlight on Spotlight

In this paper, we have made an attempt to take a look under the hood of Spotlight and understand some of the following questions amongst others: • How well-integrated is Spotlight with the file system? • How reliable is the interface between Spotlight and the file system? • Is live update a myth or a reality under heavy file system activity? Based on our experiments, it seems that Spotlight is ...

Purpose: To evaluate whether 4.0 x 4.0 mm dental implants could be an alternative to implants at least 8.5 mm long, which were placed in posterior jaws in the presence of adequate bone volumes. Materials and methods: One hundred and fifty patients with posterior (premolar and molar areas) mandibles having at least 12.5 mm bone height above the mandibular canal or 11.5 mm bone height below the m...
