The ROMVOX Text-toaSpeech synthesis system developed by our team is the first one that allowed the synthesis of any unrestricted Romanian text with intonation facilities on 1BM-PC compatible computers. During the last years of research several version of text-to-speech systems were achieved, trying to enhance their facilities. Our paper describes the present stage of our experiments performed i...

We present a next-generation architecture that addresses problems of dependability, maintainability, and manageability of I/O devices and their software drivers on the PC platform. Our architecture resolves both hardware and software issues, exploiting emerging hardware features to improve device safety. Our high-performance implementation, based on the Xen virtual machine monitor, provides an ...

statement of the problem although the primary use of tissue conditioners is to treat abused mucosa, these materials are also frequently used as functional impression materials. insufficient information is available on the effect of these materials on the surface of dental stone casts. purpose this study evaluated the effect of a tissue conditioner (acrosoft) on surface roughness of dental stone...

we introduce center-like subsets z*(r,f), z**(r,f) and z1(r,f), where r is a ring and f is a map from r to r. for f a derivation or a non-identity epimorphism and r a suitably-chosen prime or semiprime ring, we prove that these sets coincide with the center of r.

for an arbitrary ring $r$, the zero-divisor graph of $r$, denoted by $gamma (r)$, is an undirected simple graph that its vertices are all nonzero zero-divisors of $r$ in which any two vertices $x$ and $y$ are adjacent if and only if either $xy=0$ or $yx=0$. it is well-known that for any commutative ring $r$, $gamma (r) cong gamma (t(r))$ where $t(r)$ is the (total) quotient ring of $r$. in this...

let r be a prime ring with extended centroid c, h a generalized derivation of r and n ⩾ 1 a xed integer. in this paper we study the situations: (1) if (h(xy))n = (h(x))n(h(y))n for all x; y 2 r; (2) obtain some related result in case r is a noncommutative banach algebra and h is continuous or spectrally bounded.

Deligne’s category $$ \underset{\_}{\mathrm{Rep}}\left({S}_t\right) is a tensor depending on parameter t “interpolating” the categories of representations symmetric groups Sn. We construct family Cλ (depending vector variables λ = (λ1, λ2, … , λl), that may be specialised to values in ground ring) which are module over \underset{\_}{\mathrm{Rep}}\left({S}_t\right). The defined any ring and cons...

a ring $r$ is a strongly clean ring if every element in $r$ is the sum of an idempotent and a unit that commutate. we construct some classes of strongly clean rings which have stable range one. it is shown that such cleanness of $2 imes 2$ matrices over commutative local rings is completely determined in terms of solvability of quadratic equations.

in this paper we define a new type of rings ”almost powerhermitian rings” (a generalization of almost hermitian rings) and establish several sufficient conditions over a ring r such that, every regular matrix admits a diagonal power-reduction.
