The Sieve Re-Imagined: Integer Factorization Methods

In this paper, I explain the Quadratic Sieve, its Multiple Polynomial variation, the Number Field Sieve, and give some worked examples of the afore-mentioned algorithms. Using my own Maple implementation of the Quadratic Sieve, I explore the effect of altering one of the parameters of the Quadratic Sieve algorithm, with respect to both time and success rate.

Ring-tailed lemurs: a species re-imagined.

For over 50 years, ring-tailed lemurs have been studied continuously in the wild. As one of the most long-studied primate species, the length and breadth of their study is comparable to research on Japanese macaques, baboons and chimpanzees. They are also one of the most broadly observed of all primates, with comprehensive research conducted on their behaviour, biology, ecology, genetics, palae...

RE - 369 Country Program Evaluation : Barbados 2005

Evaluation of a re-training program for older drivers.

BACKGROUND Some older drivers may have a higher crash risk than others. Because many of these drivers have not received formal driving training, we evaluated the effectiveness of a re-training program for older drivers as it is currently being offered. Specifically, we examined if older drivers who received the training would have better scores on a driving evaluation than drivers who did not r...

Re: Evaluation of a children's temper-taming program.

OBJECTIVE To examine the effectiveness of a group cognitive-behavioural therapy program in reducing anger and aggressive behaviour in children. METHOD Study participants were 68 children aged 7 to 13 years and their parents. A total of 12 groups were run at an outpatient children's mental health centre. The children were referred to the groups by their clinician for assistance in reducing the...
