چکیده
The following paper attempts to discuss the connection between meaning and use in language by examining how we can speak of sharing and not sharing with others. As an introduction to this theme a passage is presented and discussed from Raimond Gaita‟s book A common humanity: thinking about love truth and justice, in which he speaks of the importance of other human beings. This subject of others and their importance to us generates a more general discussion about meaning in language. This is because when we speak of “the importance” of others it can lead to the assumption that there must be something which we can refer to in order to speak of the other being important. This also applies to sharing or not sharing, as in the case of Raimond Gaita who seems to speak of a common humanity in order to show what we as human beings necessarily share with each other. The aim of this paper is, however, to illustrate in what way such an investigation leads to a misunderstanding of what it means to share and a misrepresentation of our reactions and attitudes towards one another.

Zero-free Regions for Dirichlet Series
In this paper, we are interested in explicit zero-free discs for some Dirichlet series and we also study a general Beurling-Nyman criterion for Lfunctions. Our results generalize and improve previous results obtained by N. Nikolski and by A. de Roton. As a concrete application, we get, for example, a Beurling-Nyman type criterion for the Siegel zero problem.

متن کاملOn Making Emerging Trusted Execution Environments Accessible to Developers
New types of Trusted Execution Environment (TEE) architectures like TrustLite and Intel Software Guard Extensions (SGX) are emerging. They bring new features that can lead to innovative security and privacy solutions. But each new TEE environment comes with its own set of interfaces and programming paradigms, thus raising the barrier for entry for developers who want to make use of these TEEs. ...
