The contemporary historical novel

Although contemporary historical novels share a number of features with the traditional historical novel, as analysed by Lukács (1981), they display a fundamental change in the perception of history, evident in the disappearance of the omniscient narrator, in their choice of significant and representative figures, and scepticism regarding teleology of history or the world-historical role of war...

Vladan Vuletic I Generating Single Photons on Demand

T H E Q U A N T U M N A T U R E O F L I G H T , that is, the fact that light consists of individual photons, prevents, however, the extraction of a small fraction of a weak pulse. If each bit of information is encoded, e.g., via the light polarization, in a pulse that consists of exactlyone photon, then the eavesdropper must divert the whole pulse, which is easily detected at the receiving end....

TSAR - Tool for System Availability and Reliability Analysis

The article describes the TSAR tool for system availability and availability analysis. Failure and repair model is based on Markov chain defined by states and transitions. Each state can be interpreted as working or broken. Transitions are defined by transition probabilities and transition time probability density functions. Availability and reliability analysis is based on discrete event Monte...

Theory and Design of Time-series Sar (tsar) Systems

InSAR has proven to be a very versatile for the measurement of Earth surface topography, displacement, and volume structure. In the past 20 years since InSAR has become useful, the community has developed many capabilities to exploit single interferograms for the above and other applications. Current research is moving towards the next logical step in InSAR capability—extending the measurement ...
